My two-dimensional resident

After Kirei Kotomine finished chanting the incantation, the magic circle beneath his feet began to emit a crimson light. Countless evil, dark, and disgusting black sludge surged from the center of the magic circle, swallowing Tokiomi Tohsaka, the insect skin, the black wristband, and the ruby.

Then a massive surge of magical power erupted from the magic circle, and the black sludge at the very center began to bubble and churn outwards.

When the last giant bubble burst, a head with a golden crown and short, golden hair slowly emerged from the black mud.

Gradually, her upper body emerged from the black mud. It turned out that she not only had a golden crown on her head, but also two identical crowns without gemstones floating above her shoulders.

Just as Kirei Kotomine realized that this Heroic Spirit was different from what she had expected, a hand holding a golden Holy Grail larger than a human head emerged from the black mud. Immediately afterwards, another hand clad in red dragon scale arm guards slapped down on the black mud that was controlling her.

Against the Gods

Whoosh!

A little girl, less than 1.5 meters tall, finally appeared in full before Kirei Kotomine.

Her bare upper body was covered only by two red ribbons covering the small mound on the plain. Her lower body was indescribable, but her two slender legs were completely covered by thick red dragon scale leg armor.

She seemed dissatisfied with the black mud beneath her feet. With a gentle slap of her dragon tail, an invisible shockwave shattered and obliterated the mud.

"Is this... Gilgamesh II.2.5?"

Seeing that this flat-chested little girl actually possessed such power, Kirei Kotomine's unchanging face finally revealed a hint of surprise.

"You filthy believer, are you my master?"

With her loli-like appearance, childlike voice, and disdainful expression, Kirei Kotomine could hardly believe that this was the ultimate trump card that Tokiomi Tohsaka and his father had secretly plotted.

But her opponent's unintentional attack just now forced Kirei Kotomine to be cautious. Her outward appearance was just a trick to deceive her opponents; the terrifying strength hidden within her was her true nature.

"Yes!"

Having already murdered his master, Kirei Kotomine decided to enjoy the fruits of this Holy Grail War alone. He had no reason to refuse the mysterious and powerful Heroic Spirit before him.

"Although I hate believers, you have summoned me. So... the contract is in effect!"

The newly created Heroic Spirit looked at Kirei Kotomine with disgust, but due to the terms of the summoning ritual, she still signed a contract with Kirei Kotomine and became his Servant.

Kirei Kotomine finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw a new Command Seal appear on the back of his hand where the Assassin Command Seal used to be.

"you..."

Now that I have become the Master of this Heroic Spirit, the most important task is to learn about his true name and strength.

But just as he was about to ask the other person a question, Gilgamesh emerged from the woods.

Kirei Kotomine paused, his icy eyes meeting the other's.

Gilgamesh was no longer the man he once was. As the King of Heroes, not a single piece of his armor remained intact.

There was an unhealed bloody hole on the arm holding the treasure. The other arm was in even worse shape, with a hideous blood-red centipede spreading from his shoulder all the way to his wrist.

Without a doubt, judging from Gilgamesh's current state, his battle with Lancer and Lancelot must have been extremely fierce.

He looked at the unknown Heroic Spirit standing in the center of the magic circle with a gloomy gaze, and then looked up at Kirei Kotomine.

"I thought you could become my next subject, but I never expected that you would not only murder my subject, but also dare to break the taboo! Very good! Very good!"

"You barbarian! Where did this bastard come from, daring not to kneel before me, the Emperor!"

The little girl's aura suddenly surged, and in a flash, she appeared in front of Gilgamesh. Without any extra movements, her dragon tail transformed into a phantom and swept towards Gilgamesh.

Gilgamesh was furious at being ignored once again, but his physical condition was so bad that he didn't even have the power to open the Gate of Babylon.

Faced with such a powerful attack, he could only grit his teeth and raise the Chengli sword in his hand to block this fatal blow.

boom!

Boom boom boom!

The powerful dragon tail strike was blocked by Cheng Li's sword. But despite the little girl's small stature, her attack sent Gilgamesh flying like a cannonball over a hundred meters away.

The trees they encountered along the way were snapped in half by Gilgamesh and fell to the ground.

Even so, the little girl was still not satisfied. She transformed into a streak of light and chased after Gilgamesh, who had been knocked away.

"Hmm? You were rescued... Well then, I'll take care of you first!"

The little girl now stood before a pile of ruins. Seeing that the ground was empty except for a pool of blood, she became angry and then looked up at the sky.

They set their sights on the conqueror who had just arrived.

Chapter 130 In the cabin in the woods, a man looked at the collapsed man, his eyes turning strange.

"Wang... let's run away!"

Waver huddled inside the chariot, his body trembling uncontrollably. The ominous aura emanating from the unfamiliar heroic spirit below had robbed him of the courage to stand up and see who it was.

"..."

The Conqueror King did not comfort his "Queen" as he had done before; instead, a rare look of solemnity appeared on his face, which was as hard as stone.

......

Down the mountain, in a dilapidated house.

Lin Tian tossed Gilgamesh to the ground, a look of regret on his face. He then took out two apples, tossed one to Gilgamesh, and began to eat the other one in large bites.

"Didn't I tell you the day before yesterday that I'd give you a golden apple if you turned around? I kept my word. Although it's not golden, it's just as effective as a golden apple."

If you want to take revenge on the heroic spirit who offended you, I suggest you eat it...

"Damn it, what on earth did that old coin, Kirei Kotomine, summon? Just looking at it makes me feel like I'm going to have a...nightmare tonight!"

Although Lin Tian did not witness Kirei Kotomine's summoning ceremony, he saw Gilgamesh being blasted away by the "stinky" Heroic Spirit from a hundred meters away in the gray world of the Byakugan.

Just then, Gilgamesh flew towards him. Without thinking, Lin Tian rushed over based on his intuition, grabbed Gilgamesh, and fled the scene.

But now, upon reflection, he feels that his decision was very wise.

For no other reason than that the enemy of my enemy may not become my friend, but he or she may serve as a temporary ally until the common enemy is defeated.

Although Lin Tian still harbored the urge to kill Tokiomi Tohsaka, the appearance of that Heroic Spirit forced him to calm down and carefully consider how to deal with the now-collapsed Holy Grail War.

To put it more conspiratorially, he risked his life to save Gilgamesh, hoping that once the King of Heroes regained his strength, he could help him restrain the new Heroic Spirit.

"I... will... not accept... your... charity... cough cough!"

At this point, Gilgamesh had reached the point of utter exhaustion.

If his Master Tokiomi Tohsaka were still alive, he would have had the chance to obtain magical energy from his Master to heal himself, or to gather enough magical energy to open the Gate of Babylon and retrieve the elixir of youth to heal his injuries.

"A dignified King of Heroes has been called a barbarian. Aren't you angry? Don't you want revenge? Are you just going to swallow this humiliation and withdraw from this Holy Grail War?"

By the way, where is your Master, Tokiomi Tohsaka? Why are his student's Servants attacking you? Are you putting on a show for me?

As he spoke, Lin Tian quickly activated his Byakugan to scan his surroundings. Only after confirming that there were no familiars or people with magical powers within a kilometer radius did he look at Gilgamesh with relief.

"Cough cough! You mongrel, don't try to seduce me! Though my subject is dead, I will deal with that fake beast myself! I will not tolerate a mongrel like you interfering with my will!"

Gilgamesh swung his injured arm, swatting the apple Lin Tian had thrown at him into a corner of the room, and said with a face full of resentment.

"Ok?"

After listening to Gilgamesh's words, Lin Tian's eyes lit up; he seemed to have grasped two key pieces of information.

Tokiomi Tohsaka is dead! That Heroic Spirit was called a false beast by Gilgamesh!

False beast, beast!

Aren't beasts just animals?!

Lin Tian then took out the figurine Isabelle had given him from his spatial backpack. Holding the figurine up to eye level, Lin Tian could vaguely see Isabelle's eyes beginning to flash a faint red light rhythmically.

"That Heroic Spirit, the Pseudo-Beast... is actually the mission objective? This is a bit hard for me to accept..."

What should I do? Capture him? Or not? If I do capture him, I don't think I have the ability.

If I don't seize this opportunity, I don't know when I'll encounter a suitable target again...

Lin Tian put the Isabelle figurine back into his spatial backpack, resting his chin on his hand, lost in a dilemma.

The reason he stole Lancelot and ambushed Kenneth earlier was because he was familiar with the World War IV storyline and treated that night's battle like a game instance.

Ryunosuke Uryu, Caster, and Assassin were all able to make so many seemingly reckless moves because Lin Tian knew them inside and out.

But Lin Tian had absolutely no recollection of this pseudo-beast that Gilgamesh had mentioned. Aside from sensing its terrifying strength, his mind was completely blank regarding its abilities.

"Cough cough..."

"Hmm? I've got it!"

Gilgamesh coughed a few more times, which interrupted Lin Tian's thoughts and made Lin Tian turn his attention back to him.

"You bastard! Don't look at me with those filthy eyes. Wait! What are you going to do?"

Feeling Lin Tian looking at him with ill intent, Gilgamesh's face turned cold. If it weren't for the pseudo-beast that had paralyzed him earlier, he would have raised his sword and blown his head off.

"It's nothing, my esteemed King Gilgamesh, the great Hero King. I suddenly realize how rude I was to you before. I deserve to die for offending our Hero King. I wish I could kill myself to atone for my sins!"

"Ok?"

Lin Tian's attitude changed completely, sending a chill down Gilgamesh's spine as he lay sprawled on the ground. He had no idea what kind of trouble this bastard was up to now.

"But... if I were to commit suicide now to atone for my sins, Your Majesty, you would leave this world in less than ten minutes. But... I witnessed that despicable and rude enemy offend you with my own eyes. I am not reconciled; I want to teach you a lesson..."

"Enough! Do you think I don't know what you're thinking? How could such clumsy acting fool me!"

Although Lin Tian's expression was vivid, his voice was tearful, and his delivery was captivating, with every word striking a chord, Gilgamesh didn't believe it at all. Utterly disgusted, he loudly stopped Lin Tian's performance.

"So you don't like it? I thought you enjoyed being flattered by your subjects. Honestly, I find it disgusting."

Seeing that Gilgamesh had seen through his disguise, Lin Tian stopped pretending. His expression, which was full of self-blame and guilt a second ago, instantly returned to its original indifference.

"Gilgamesh! You should know your current situation. Your Master is dead, and you are severely injured. If you don't sign a contract with me, you have nine minutes—no! Eight minutes—to leave this world and bid farewell to this Holy Grail War."

In the last eight minutes, think it over carefully.

Chapter 111 The Poor Lancer Becomes a Combat Unit (Bonus Chapter 1 for May Day Event)

After a pause, Lin Tian looked at Gilgamesh and continued speaking.

"Four Heroic Spirits have already been eliminated. That Conqueror King will likely be defeated by the pseudo-beast you mentioned as well."

The souls of the five Heroic Spirits have already merged into the Lesser Grail. Now is the time to begin the Greater Grail summoning ritual. You've been eliminated just like that; as the King of Heroes, are you truly resigned to this?"
