That protagonist is trash; I could do better!

If it's a Servant, then it's just an item that can provide infinite magic power.

If we analyze it from the three aspects of conversion rate, utilization rate and efficiency, Jingu undoubtedly stands at the top, even surpassing Hall.

He is essentially a being similar to the Holy Grail; as long as one possesses the magic provided by the Holy Grail, he is the Holy Grail.

呲呲!

The radiance emanating from the heart of the Holy Grail blocked the final stab, gradually covering Kingu's body and clearing away the dense lines of death.

"it's over!"

King Gu proclaimed loudly, looking up at the sky. The magic emanating from his body converged into a golden lock, the sharp edge of which was about to pierce through the Blood Temple.

Once he leaves the Blood Temple, even a siege by multiple powerful Servants cannot pose a threat to him.

However, at the very last moment before the Noble Phantasm was fully unleashed, Kingu heard a song.

The melodious and poignant song, filled with sadness, had echoed in his mind countless times.

“Aaaaaaaa~?”

The song passed through his body, reaching the depths of his consciousness, stripping Jingu of control over his body. A large amount of magic went out of control, causing devastating damage to his spirit foundation.

Jin Gu's pale face showed disbelief, and the blood seeping from his body stained his white robe.

As he fell, Jingu let out a heart-wrenching cry of despair: "Mother! Why?"

That was the song that created him, a song he could never resist.

boom!

Kingu's body crashed onto the black mud, his gaze fading. Compared to the damage to his spiritual foundation caused by the rampage of magic, the creation goddess Tiamat's attempt to stop him from leaving was more damaging to him.

"Mother···"

"why?"

Why are you stopping me?

"Isn't this your wish?"

Jingu wailed loudly, his will crumbling, his very existence being denied by his creator.

The questions in my heart remained unanswered: Why was he created? What is the purpose of his actions?

Hall's voice answered his question: "The answer is simple, she chose the wrong machine."

Glug glug~

Hall crawled naked out of the black mud beside Jingu. As he stood up, the black mud spread out from Hall's feet and turned into a black robe. He stared coldly at the soulless Jingu.

Jingu knelt on the black mud, head tilted back, eyes vacant: "Was my birth a mistake?"

You clearly know the answer.

Hall said coldly, his right hand thrusting out like a spear blade, piercing through Kingu's chest without any obstruction or resistance, taking out Kingu's Holy Grail heart, and manifesting it as the Holy Grail, which he then put into his possession.

This scene seems familiar; it's the Holy Grail again, and the heart is involved...

Hall thought to himself, "Now all the conditions are met."

Although Kingu was created by Tiamat and given the name Kingu, even though their souls are different, he can never escape Enkidu's influence due to the characteristics of this body.

We will not kill humans who pose no threat, nor will we indiscriminately kill innocent people.

This principle reflects Enkidu's side as portrayed by Kingo; from the perspective of being an enemy of humanity, he appears far too weak.

To be honest, he's the kind of traitor who'll eventually be exonerated.

"I've lost, I've lost completely. Kill me." King said with a deathly expression. Even without the Holy Grail Heart, Enkidu's physical characteristics allowed him to survive for a while longer.

Kill him? Although he could be considered a threat, and he was the kind of half-baked traitor Hall hated most, such an ending would lack a bit of romance.

Hall frowned as he watched Kingu gradually lose his life, then squatted down, grabbed his hair, and forced him to look into his eyes: "Don't you understand? You've lost the goal Tiamat gave you, and the Holy Grail of the Magic King no longer affects you. What do you want to do most now?"

"What do you want to do?"

"I won't kill you. If you still don't understand, then just let yourself be discarded like a useless tool, die by the roadside, and have your body eaten by monsters. Hmph, a fitting end for you." Hall released him and turned to leave.

"Like a stray dog ​​dying meaninglessly by the roadside...it's so stupid."

Kingu chuckled to himself, his eyes gradually brightening as he recalled more memories. He had experienced something similar when this body was still Enkidu.

Jingu left, dejected and broken as he departed the Blood Temple. His white robes were now filthy, and a large hole had been ripped open in his heart.

From the shadows came Ishtar's cold question: "Why did you let that broken clay doll go? Wouldn't it have been better to kill him here to prevent future trouble?"

Even now, even though Kingu and Enkidu are two different people, Ishtar still despises him.

Hall didn't know if she was holding a grudge or had inherited the resentment of the god Ishtar. "I know you don't like him, that's my principle."

"Huh, you actually have principles? Aren't you always doing whatever you want?"

Hall stated matter-of-factly, "That's my principle."

"..."

"Hmph, don't forget that the Great Cup of Uruk is still in Gilgamesh's hands."

"Just keeping it safe for you."

"What if Gilgamesh were used to save the broken clay doll?"

"He is a king who has returned from a journey to find the elixir of immortality. If he could do such a thing for his own selfish desires, Uruk would have been destroyed long ago."

Ever since I experienced the ease of updating the first time, I feel like I can never go back.

I clearly said there were still 40,000 words left, so why am I still able to write so much more, even after so many pages have been cut?

Actually, there were a few more volumes after the FGO volume ended.

Including the world where Sakura lives.

The bosses include UO, Yusei, and alien gods.

The Type-Moon arc concludes with the return of the Age of Gods, the protagonist orchestrating the spiritualization of all humanity to create a Servant Universe to fight against UO, and finally, the protagonist becoming the root of this universe.

This was foreshadowed a long time ago, wasn't it? The Gorgon sisters' talk about the return of the throne before coming to FGO, and Merlin's talk about the protagonist destroying a world, were all foreshadowing.

I guess nobody noticed.

After thinking about it, I decided against it; the more I wrote, the worse it felt.

Chapter 466 Farewell, My Friend

The Holy Grail of the Magic King, though slightly smaller in size than the Great Cup of Uruk, possesses immense magical power that is nearly limitless in the eyes of ordinary magicians.

For the creator goddess Tiamat to manifest as human evil, two conditions must be met.

First, she will be freed from the dream created by Merlin. This was bound to happen sooner or later. Even without interference from others, Merlin's magic would only take a few more months to awaken.

Secondly, providing the opportunity for Tiamat to manifest requires an immeasurable amount of magical power, which clearly requires the Holy Grail.

This is also the direct reason why Kingu, who possesses the Holy Grail Heart, cannot awaken Tiamat on his own.

"The rest is up to you."

In the Temple of Blood, Hall handed the Holy Grail of the Magic King to Gorgon, the goddess of vengeance.

Gorgon's massive body was shrouded in shadow, his cold, serpentine eyes fixed on Hall, and he asked indifferently, "What do you want me to do?"

“You can do whatever you want; that’s our agreement,” Hall said with a smile.

Gorgon scoffed at Hall's words, his massive body trembling as he snorted hoarsely, "Even if I were to kill all of humanity?"

She didn't know exactly what Hall wanted to do, but she knew it was completely different from her goal of taking revenge on humanity.

Hall smiled and said, "Even if you want to use it to destroy the world, there's one thing you need to know: the contract will be officially established once you've completed your mission."

At that moment, Ishtar's voice rang out: "You monster goddess over there, I advise you to give up. There are already three victims here."

Gorgon remained unmoved, his purple serpentine eyes looking down at Hall: "Did you deceive them?"

“He has kept his promise to us very well, which is why he is so terrifying. Whatever you want to do with the Holy Grail is probably within his expectations, and no matter what happens, it will eventually turn into a situation that is favorable to him.”

Gorgon sneered, "Then there's no problem. I am an Avenger, my fate is already sealed. After I complete my revenge, I have no reason to exist. If someone needs it, then take it."

This is the significance of the Avengers class.

Ishtar sighed softly, "I knew this would happen."

She wasn't reminding Gorgon out of kindness; if Gorgon agreed, the time to obtain the Holy Grail would be delayed again.

Gorgon crouched down, like a snake feeding, his deep purple snake hair biting the Holy Grail and swallowing it.

Glug~ Glug~

Gorgon stood up, and the Holy Grail transformed into a golden light that flowed down her hair and merged into her body, falling into her heart and becoming one with it. She licked her lips as if she had swallowed delicious food, exuding a dangerous, otherworldly aura: "Not bad."

Hall's magic eye observed that Gorgon's scale of existence had instantly increased, approaching the level of a chief god. Moreover, due to its unlimited supply of magic power and Tiamat's authority, Gorgon was now a monster truly feared by the gods.

Rumble~

Gorgon slithered up behind Hall, manipulating his snake hair to coil up Hall's body and bring him in front of him. "Shall we move now?"

Click~ Click~

Hall felt the pressure from the snake hair was like a python hunting its prey; any more force and it would be crushed into minced meat. He shook his head: "Tomorrow, give them some time to prepare."

When King Gilgamesh encountered King Gu, who had lost the heart of the Holy Grail, he should have known very well what would happen tomorrow.

"Hmph, that's perfect, I also need to practice how to use the power of the Holy Grail."

······

As night deepened, in the dense forest, blood stained the path, and Kingu, having lost the Holy Grail's heart, staggered forward.

Behind him in the dark forest, countless scarlet eyes darted about, following his every step. Kingu, who had lost the heart of the Holy Grail, was also stripped of his status as Tiamat's eldest son.

To the roaming monsters, it was an unparalleled delicacy; whoever ate it would evolve.

"Cough...cough cough cough, is this what it feels like to be weak?" Jingu stopped, leaning against a tree trunk, staring at the blood he coughed up, and mocked himself helplessly.

Looking up at the sky obscured by the tree canopy, the journey that used to take only a few minutes to fly across now felt hopelessly long.

"Time is running out. Will I be able to see him? Or being eaten by the monsters here would be a good ending. There's no need to think so much."
