Chapter 12: battle begins

Almost an hour after our departure we arrived at the temple Rin mentioned, upon arriving there was a bleak atmosphere watching the dangerous being emanated from within.

"So this is where they're hiding? It's annoying."

Jeanne radiated her displeasure with the atmosphere of the temple, me and everyone else felt the same way.

"Okay, let's go in."

We all entered the landscape that changed from a temple to a large cave, much to Shirou's surprise.

"The barrier! So they want to hide their deeds?"

"That may be so, but putting that aside, we should be on high alert for sure they are hiding in ambushes around here."

Rin advises everyone to be on their guard as they are in their home turf, and when everyone is getting ready to take a fighting stance, there is a round of applause.

"Welcome! Welcome! You've finally arrived!!"

"You are...!!"

"It's my, king Gillgamesh!."

The one who greeted us was Gillgamesh and from behind appeared the Servants that attacked us, except Assassin.

"No Assassin!? Everyone be careful maybe that Assassin is around!."

I warned everyone about the fact that Assassins were all leaning against each other to be on high alert, and at that Gillgamesh laughed.

"You don't have to worry! I don't know why? But he and his Master were killed by someone, so rest assured it's just us and you."

Even though he said that, I was still on guard even though I looked relaxed, and the rest of them relaxed at the same time besides Gillgamesh Lancer spoke up.

"Hey Gillgamesh! When are we going to fight?"

"You're such an impatient brat, that's fine you guys go ahead and slowly fight that black haired guy and his Saber, and the redhead's Saber."

"Okay, let go!"

"Then I'm not being polite!"

Caster also joined the party and flew up, and the rest of them jumped down and rushed towards us except for Gillgamesh, who slowly advanced.

"Careful!!."

First, Lancer rushed to Shirou and Rin's place, but Acher flew to block his attack, and Berserker rushed to knock down Saber and Jeanne's position, and sent the group flying, I and Artoria are thrown together, Jeanne and Saber confront Berserker, and Shirou and Rin are pulled close by Caster.

"It's not okay! Our formation is messed up! Artoria are you okay?"

"I'm fine, you don't have to worry Master now you should take care of the others."

While I was standing up, these series of swords came towards me, and I quickly turned Henshin into Delta to bombard the incoming swords.

"Master!."

"It's okay Artoria! Luckily I had my belt ready so I could react in time."

I reassured Artoria that I was fine, and she understood as she looked over at the attacker who was Gillgamesh.

"You're nimble! I didn't expect you to be able to counter those of my Noble Phantasms, that's commendable compared to a mongrel."

"You bastard!."

"Why are you so angry, Black Saber? I was just entertaining your Master!."

He said while smiling scornfully at me, making me once again angry with someone from high school until now.

"I'm not a Saber but a Rider! And I won't allow you to kill my Master!"

"Wow, whatever! He's going to die anyway, so come with me and the other Saber as well."

"I said no already!"

Artoria was angry at Gillgamesh's words, since Artoria was also angry, I calmed down and spoke calmly.

"Artoria, please go over and help Jeanne and the others! Let me handle it for him."

"Wait Master I know you can fight him like you did in the mansion, but with your current situation you can't fight him! So let me fight you."

She tried to advise me not to fight alone like last time, but to fight her, even though I knew it was right because in part it was because my ego and my arrogance were boiling over. His brash attitude, and their situation was so understaffed that I had to Solo with him and let him know who was the leader here.

"It's okay Artoria I can take care of him, I have to tell him who's the boss here."

Hearing that Artoria seemed quite shocked and Gillgamesh laughed scornfully at my words.

"Hahahahaha!! Are you the leader here? Don't make fun of me, who do you think you are?"

"Is Master okay when I leave?"

"It's okay I have a way and besides, I have what Paradox gave me."

I come up with arguments that I consider convincing and reassuring, for Artoria to hear.

"Then I'll go Master."

After saying that she went to Jeanne and the others to support them.

"Ho! So you still want to fight me?"

"That's right! So put on your armor and prepare for battle, Gillgamesh."

"I don't need to wear armor to still be able to defeat you! But I wonder why you wear that belly iron thing when you can still be strong without wearing it, but wearing it is just a hindrance limit your power?"

His words made me wonder to think about it, but now is not the time to think about it, it's time to fight.

"You can say whatever you want! But if you say so, I'll come up!"

I immediately rushed over to him while summoning the Delta Blaster, with me approaching him, from behind his salary a series of Noble Phantasms shot straight at me, but was shot and knocked back by me. albeit a bit difficult.

"Babylon Gate is really annoying, compared to EA, it's not as dangerous, but it's the thing I have to watch out for the most, even if he launches EA, I can't avoid it, but the notched roof constantly attacks, I It's open, so I have to get close to him so I don't get hit."

I quickly got close to him, at this distance Gillgamesh could hardly use the Babylon Gate to shoot me and force him to play melee.

"You bastard, you're fast, but you still can't hurt me!"

He unleashed a series of slashes at me that I quickly parried, then jumped out with thrust and fired the Noble Phantasm.

"You think I don't know your intentions! Do you want me to not use the treasure? Very powerful, but I have seen through your plan."

Just like that, I dodged over and over again.

"TSK I have to end this quickly! Dodging like this makes me uncomfortable!"

I immediately switched to Accel, the reactor inside the armor opened and when the Noble Phantasms were rushing, with super speed I emptied them all by charging straight ahead. into Gillgamesh.

"What!? It's too fast! It's not good!."

With my super speed, I surprised him by pulling out a shield and sword to block it, but due to the force of the impact, it broke, causing him to be knocked backwards.

"What the hell! How can he be so fast?"

While he was still thinking, I immediately rushed from the left, even though he blocked it with his sword, it still broke for my lightsaber, and his arm and part of his chest melted. blood and burns.

"You bastard!! How dare you make me bleed!?."

He became angry with my attacks, he put on his shining golden armor and summoned a series of weapons to attack, but due to his speed, he couldn't hit me. being punched, kicked and slashed by me constantly, plus the terrain of the cave that stagnates gives me more attack directions and makes him unstoppable,

"Damn it, stop running around!!"

Gillgamesh's inhibition had reached its limit, he immediately released his Noble Phantasm indiscriminately, making it difficult for me to move but slow down due to dodging.

"Damn it! Are you so angry that you're crazy!? Why are you shooting a treasure all around like this?"

"I see you, you bastard!!"

Just wait until I slow down that he can see me and use something that won't stop me.

"This is!?."

A series of chains tied my arms and legs, so I couldn't move and also "Time Out" so I stopped moving at super speed, and Gillgamesh was walking slowly.

"Now you run around! You made me bleed and made me suffer like that, you deserve to die!"

"TSK! Damn it."

I tried to struggle from the chains but couldn't, seeing me like that made him laugh.

"Now then, I'm not joking, I'll personally use EA to kill you too, that's also my compliment to you for hurting me."

"Ho! It's an honor to be praised by the King of Heroes."

"Of course, so now die!"

From his hand appeared a sword that looked like a slightly pointed tube at the tip of the chiawx straight at me.

"Farewell to the Gentiles."

The beam of energy was gathered at the tip and was about to be fired, but.

"But I'm not that easy to die! A.I turns on Blaster mode and boosts defense to the max!!"

"Sure!."

Immediately my armor changed to Blaster form, and increased my defense to the maximum level and appeared shields right in front of me, just in time for the energy beam to be fired.

"Do you still have this? But it's useless because once my EA is fired, no matter what you do, you won't be able to hold it!"

Just as he said it was quickly broken one by one.

"If that's the case, then I hope the armor can endure it!"

The last shield was broken and I ate the full blow, the power it gave off blew away everything around me,

at the same time something from near death or something that suddenly I went from tense, burned state suddenly became strangely calm.

"Why am I suddenly so calm? Or is it because I'm close to death?"

Then my body moved on its own for an instant, and right after the explosion of smoke and dust scattered the whole area in a haze of smog, Gillgamesh stopped all flying, and saw that I was wounded but still standing in front of him.

"Hoo! Are you still alive and standing? Even because of my attack on EA? What are you really?"

"Me? I'm me Tran Nguyen Khanh Minh is a superhero! But why I'm still alive and still standing is probably due to my luck, even though the armor was completely destroyed along with the belt. "

"Mongrell…no Khanh Minh, you make me feel good! It's worth entertaining! This is the first time I've seen someone who can survive an EA attack!."

"Whatever."

While I was standing, he was thinking.

"It's strange that his eyes seem to suddenly turn silver, isn't it? Both his hair is a bit voluminous and his silver eyes are back to green again, and his hair has fallen down. down and that feeling? That's why he survived, it really bothers me!"

While Gillgamesh was still asking countless questions, I took out the device that Paradox had asked Artoria to give me.

"So it's time to test this device! Hopefully it will come up with something useful."

When he saw me holding the device, Gillgamesh suddenly asked.

"What is that thing? Why does it look so strange?"

"Who knows! I just received it, so I don't know it yet, so if you want to know what it is, you have to try it to find out."

After I said that, I pressed it a few times and it automatically flew straight and stuck to my chest, a layer of NanoTech covered my body to form an armor,

although it was a bit of a surprise, I quickly got used to it since I watched Avengers Infinity War and End Game, the way it covered me was similar to the Iron Mark 50 and 85 armor but the difference was that it wasn't Iron man's armor. Tony Stark, and then a bunch of game-like stars and symbols appear and enter the NanoTech class,

its armor is golden and the metallic strands like waist-length hair of the same color are behind me.

"This is..."

"Welcome to the armor's A.I system, you're in Hyper Mutenki mode."

"Hyper Mutenki?"

While I was still bewildered, Gillgamesh just stood looking at me and said.

"What kind of armor is that? It's beautiful, I like it! Its golden color suits a king."

"Is that so! If that's what you want, then defeat me and get it!"

"Fine! I'll add it to my collection!"

"Then try it!"

Then the two rushed to attack causing the ground under their feet to crack, at the same time in other places there were battles including Acher fighting Lancer Alter, fiercely.

[Author: Well, MC's current armor is Hyper Mutenki from the movie Kamen Rider Ex-aid.]
