Chapter 106: Mongrel.
In the sky far above Fuyuki, two hurricanes rampaged as they cast a shadow on the world underneath.
The wind was howling like a monster roaring in the air with all it might. The clear blue color of the sky was covered by black and red as two hurricanes were clashing at a very high speed.
The clouds didn't last a moment before they scattered around and disappeared from this battlefield before the two storms met head to head.
*BOOOOOM!!!*
Another ear-splitting noise shook the world as the hurricanes clashed before they started to break and turn into sparks in the air.
The sparks floated in the air like light particles before they melted with the wind as Leo appeared from the dark storm on his horse.
Despite the mana sparks, Leo could clearly see with his Clairvoyance as he spotted Gilgamesh above him.
Hundreds of portals appeared behind Gilgamesh as all of them were ready to launch a barrage of Noble Phantasms.
However, this wasn't a reason to stop. Leo slammed the horse's reins as Made In Hell accelerated his speed. Each step was leaving blue sparks in the air as the horse turned into a bullet, dashing towards Gilgamesh.
Waving with his hand, Gilgamesh fired a lot of Noble Phantasm at Leo as they left a trail of light in the air.
Each one of them was A-rank and B-rank Noble Phantasms filled with mana and ready to be used as a huge quality mystery bomb. Even the mana in the air was stirred by the speed of the weapons.
The sky in front of Leo seemed to be filled with stars suddenly as the Noble Phantasms cut through the air quickly. Despite this attack, Leo only raised his left free hand and waved his palm to the side.
Several runes shot from his hand and made a circle at his side. The runes circled slowly as a chilling wind was blowing at the surrounding before Leo summoned Alrescha.
The familiar rushed directly into the circle before the cold winds started to freeze everything, even the close Noble Phantasm were slowing down.
Using a combination of Isa(I), which means ice and Hagalaz(ᚺ), which means Hail, the ice of the familiar turned into a snowstorm that froze everything in front of it, even the Noble Phantasms slowed down and turned into ice sculptures.
Gilgamesh, who was charging EA, saw this as he activated the mana stored in weapons. The mana rushed from the weapons as they broke the ice and stopped the cold winds from spreading forward.
Regardless of the cold storm, Gilgamesh didn't stop. He raised his arm before a slightly larger portal appeared.
A giant, jagged blade cladded in hot flames appeared above Gilgamesh as the cold wind turned hot in a moment.
Raising Sul-sagana, which is a Divine Construct, the ice was melting instantly before Gilgamesh waved the blade forward.
The heat of flames was scorching all that in its way as the divinity it contained was able to melt Leo's ice and continue forward.
Feeling the flames flying towards him, Leo didn't bother to look at it at all. Even if he doesn't claim to be the stronger, the flames, heat, and light were always his thing.
Made In Hell took advantage of his speed and dodged what left from the Noble Phantasms before they met the flame stone head to head.
With a quick wave, the spinning lance in Leo's hands dragged the flames. The dark storm made all the hot air and flames rotate with it before Leo waved it towards Gilgamesh.
Looking at the flames getting deflected in a casual way, Gilgamesh frowned before he waved the jagged sword and crushed them with hotter flames.
Suddenly, the flames in front of Gilgamesh exploded as Leo came rushing through them. The lance in his hand was spinning furiously before he swung forward.
The dark storm evolved further as red electricity and lightning were flashing and destroying everything while making their way towards Gilgamesh.
"Hmph!" Even if his Clairvoyance can't help him to see the future about this battle, it's more than enough to keep an eye on the surroundings as Gilgamesh waved EA to meet the attack.
At this moment, EA was glowing with a red light as electricity was flying around and turning into winds that ripped this world apart before it clashed with Rhongomyniad.
*BOOOOM!!!*
A piercing impact echoed in the sky. The lightning from two Noble Phantasms scattered towards the surrounding, scorching everything while releasing the extra energy from the impact.
Rhongomyniad and EA were spinning at a very high speed against each other while Leo and Gilgamesh were clashing. It was like the center of their clash became an eye of the storm while the red and black winds pushed everything away.
The buzzing sound of the two Noble Phantasms was enough to make a normal person lose his ability to hear for a while as the sparks were flying everywhere with the impact.
Suddenly, when Gilgamesh was pushing his mana to fight Leo, he was surprised that the lightning on the lance increased instantly.
"Regulus!" With those words, a large lion made from electricity appeared from Leo's body before it melted into the lance.
The lance exploded with a huge amount of lightning and electricity as its roar managed to surpass even the buzzing sound from the clash.
Gilgamesh saw this as several portals appeared behind him and shot at the lance in an attempt to stop it.
"ROAAAAAAARRR!!!" With a roar of a lion, Leo increased his strength with mana and managed to surpass EA's protection as he waved forward.
*BOOOOOOM!!!*
The lightning exploded from the lance and rushed like a wave. The golden electricity drowned Gilgamesh and all his treasures in a blink of an eye.
It looked like a huge beam turning into a golden line in the air while engulfing everything in its way.
After some moments, the lightning died down as everything recovered, but the sparks of electricity were still in the air as Leo lowered his lance and looked at the front.
Gilgamesh was protected by EA and golden chains appeared on his body as it lowered down the damage from Rhongomyniad.
However, his armor changed. Unlike the full golden armor, he removed the upper part as his upper body was glowing with red tattoos.
"Enkidu? Well, this is quite the situation" Leo tilted his head while looking at the golden chains of Gilgamesh's body.
Enkidu is clearly present in this world, so by doing this, Gilgamesh is literally grabbing his best friend and hitting people with him.
"EA spor… *cough* EA and Enkidu, you're ready, huh?" Leo coughed because he remembered a very terrifying thing from the past.
"Idiot, the king treasury can't be limited by time or era" Gilgamesh said as the chains started moving around him before he lowered EA.
"I see, but using 70% of your wealth to upgrade your Saint Graph is something I didn't expect from you" Leo's eyes seemed to be able to see what was behind those golden portals, which allowed him to see what happened.
Saint Graphs refers to the core of a spiritual being's existence, described as 'their center, their heart, and their CPU' that dictates their every function. Servants' performance is bounded by the quality of their Saint Graph, so they use more power.
Leo does have one which is a very convenient thing to contain his powers that include the Beast, Angel, and even his Longinus. Although he doesn't think that the description of Longinus from DXD can do justice to his necklace now.
So, after glancing at Gilgamesh when he used his mana, Leo noticed that his Saint Graph had been upgraded, which allowed his servant form to become stronger and approach the time when he was alive.
However, why? Leo is fully aware that Gilgamesh won't do this despite having no chance to win against him without using EA at full power. This something he would do probably for Enkidu only.
Gilgamesh, even if he was defeated, he won't recognize someone as equal, except his only friend. His actions, his tyranny over his people, extended from his ability to see even what the gods were unable to comprehend.
Though he knew the weak, he never glanced back at them, and though he knew the strong, he never acknowledged them. He's a person who chooses isolation because he had a path that only he can advance in. Leo didn't see a reason for using most of his wealth on this matter.
"Feel honored! Although this king doesn't need to justify himself, I find this interesting" Gilgamesh grinned as a portal appeared under his feet.
Leo blinked his eyes a few times. For some reason, those words had different meanings in Leo's head before he moved back a little and said " Look, even if I'm not interested in having a relationship now. I'm pretty sure that I'm straight and didn't join any clay club"
"Hm? What are you mumbling about? You should be honored and overjoyed that the king showed interest in you" Gilgamesh said those words naturally and without any hesitation. Like this how things should be.
Leo took more distance away from Gilgamesh before he said " Um, then what about Saber, you want her as a wife or something"
"Saber? Ah, you reminded me that I didn't see the knight king here. It's a shame that she didn't participate" Gilgamesh had a slight tone of regret before he said " I would love to see her try to resist me and go after her ideals"
"... Sure" Leo had a blank face while listening to Gilgamesh's hobby of King Arthur.
"However, you're also very interesting. Even if you're acting like this, I don't see any really up and downs in your mood, except for what you want" Gilgamesh said with a tone filled with interest while gazing at Leo.
"....." Leo took more distance away while raising the lance slightly. He's about 5 seconds away from stabbing this clay guy with his holy lance to purify him again.
{Hold on, that also sounds wrong…} Leo was in a dilemma about this situation.
"Like I thought, you saw it all, didn't you? Yet, you're still like this. FUHAHAHAHAHA!! " Gilgamesh laughed as his shoulders were shaking like he saw something very funny.
Trying to forget these misleading words, Leo took a second to throw the stupid ideas from his head. Despite the vague explanation, he was able to understand what this guy was talking about as a bewildered expression appeared on his face.
At that moment, Leo lowered his head slightly before his shoulders started shaking slightly.
"Pfff… HAHAHAHAHA!!!" Suddenly, Leo burst with laughter as he couldn't help it.
From all the people in this world, it had to be Goldy to bring this up and even understand it. No, it's because he understands, he'll bring it up. This was so funny to Leo for some reason.
He wiped the tears from his eyes before he looked at Gilgamesh and said " Said the guy who wanted to release the World's Evil upon humanity"
"That filth can rot in its place. To think this king was actually trying to clear the mess of these mongrels" Gilgamesh said with a disgusted look when he remembered what he was going to do.
Even if he was bored, he'll never try and clean the mess for the mongrels. He saw the situation of the modern era and was dissatisfied with it, but when he was affected by the World's Evil, they became his target.
Suddenly, something appeared from Gilgamesh's feet, It was a glowing ship. A very bright ship that can blind anyone who looks at it.
This is one of Gilgamesh's treasures that he doesn't use a lot. It is called the ship of light, a ship that can reach a speed beyond the speed of light. Although that's impossible because of the world's correction power, it's still a very fast vehicle.
"A new ship? Just how many do you have?" Leo sighed while looking at the light bulb of a ship, however, unlike his usual bored voice. It was a funny tone like he was interested now.
Probably, this is one of the few times this happened in this world.
"Hmph! My treasury exceeded my knowledge. Trying to tell it limits is laughable" Gilgamesh lifted his eyebrow as several portals appeared behind him.
"Good grief. I already said this war is filled with idiots including me and now… I'm just confirming my words" Leo shrugged his shoulders before his necklace started glowing.
"Although it's unnecessary, who cares anyway…" Leo grinned before several green lines and threads flew from him towards the surrounding.
"This world condition is like chains on my body, but I don't care anymore, so let me at least enjoy this for a while" Raising the lance in his hand, Leo turned it tip towards the ground before he lowered it gently. Ripples were sent towards the surrounding as the authority of the lance was activated.
The green lines and threads became like a huge network of webs behind Leo as Gilgamesh saw the whole area behind his opponent turn into a gigantic spider web in seconds.
"Hey, Goldy, I heard you said that the king can carry all this world evil, right?" Leo said as dark particles of shadows were rising from the green lines before they started gathering together.
What he's about to do is completely unnecessary and stupid. But who cares? If you can't use your power as you like, then what's the point of having it? Even if it's just for having fun here.
Gilgamesh didn't speak, but only his expression was the best answer as he looked at the green lines forming different shapes across the web.
"I don't really have a treasury like you, but I've archives… " Behind Leo, the green lines started to take a shape before the particles gathered together and formed it.
From an energy state, several objects and items started manifesting in a physical form in front of Gilgamesh's eyes. He was shocked as his eyes widened at this scene because unlike others, he was able to see much more.
The lines and threads were forming a spiral in the shape of a gigantic serpent that was moving around a river, a river of destiny. The whole river of destiny that belongs to humanity seemed to be open by the serpent in Gilgamesh's eyes before everything started to appear from the river to the current world.
"A lot and a lot of archives" Leo said with a smile before the particles of light dimmed down and a lot of things appeared from the green lines.
Their metallic color was reflected by the sun before they appeared completely. Battleships, a couple of big battleships that have a lot of guns and cannons appeared in front of Gilgamesh. And more were appearing from the green threads.
However, there were a lot of runes and rituals drawn all over the ships, especially the cannons and guns. If any magi were here, they would see that the ships were high-quality mystic codes made for combat, even a huge war.
However, the time, efforts, and resources to make one single battleship in this quality is a dream for regular magi, even the lord of the clock tower won't waste their time making them.
"Atlas products are not bad…" Leo landed on the leading ship with his horse before he looked at Gilgamesh on the ship of light.
"Pff… FUHAHAHAHAHA!!!" Gilgamesh started laughing suddenly when he looked at the show that Leo just pulled.
He was able to see that this is a part of a Noble Phantasm and it was used at its best without releasing the true name. However, what was funny is that he was the one that activated it.
With admitting that he can carry the evil, Gilgamesh felt something locking on him before he saw the serpent in the river of destiny.
{Manifesting the recorded sins, this had to be the Noble Phantasm power and those were the sins of some mongrels(magi)} Gilgamesh glanced at the fleet in front of him as his gaze flickered with a red light.
This had to be a Noble Phantasm with conditions to activate and he just achieved those conditions, so this was interesting and funny for him.
Gilgamesh didn't speak as he grinned before raising EA again and the ship under him was glowing.
Even if they seemed to joke about the situation, both of them understand that this battle isn't a joke.
The king's rules can't be defied, unrecognizing him is more of a crime, and destroying the treasures is the biggest of crimes, so Gilgamesh was going to really fight Leo to death from the start.
Leo understood that even if he met this guy for a few minutes, which was very interesting for him, especially when this guy lost the World's Evil.
Like the idiots they are, they are just going to throw everything and blast the area with everything for no actual reason.
"Before we begin, I had something that I wanted to ask you for a long time" Leo asked Gilgamesh, who was charging EA.
"Very well, this king grants you the privilege to ask" With his usual arrogance, Gilgamesh said.
"I'm an angel and devil, so that makes me a mongrel, then what about you?" Leo said those words as silence filled the whole area for a second.
Gilgamesh is a 2/3 God and the rest is human, so this technically makes him… A mongrel.
*Buzz*
EA was raging with stronger power as a vein appeared on Gilgamesh's head before he looked at Leo's grinning smile.
He just adds another objective to this fight and it's to erase that smile from Leo's face.
"DIE MONGREL!!!" Gilgamesh screamed as hundreds of portals appeared and shot Noble Phantasms, not only weapons, but even magecraft staffs and Mystic codes were shooting magecraft.
"Hahaha!! That's more like it." Leo raised his lance and pointed forward before all the ships behind him activated.
Hundreds of cannons and guns aiming forwards as the mystic codes were activated completely. Unlike the normal ships, these are boosted with magecraft and Alchemy.
"FIRE!!!" Leo waved before all the ships started firing their weapons behind him. Laser beams, bullets, magecraft shots, a lot of different shells turned into a heavy fire while flying towards Gilgamesh.
At this moment, the sky turned into two sides as it looked like two meteors showers were flying towards each other.
