Chapter 201 - Chapter 192 Addendum

Event dialogue, several lines added!

Let's talk about the 200th anniversary!

It's a New Year's gift. Please accept it. And—it's the 200th anniversary!

"Hello there. I'm Merlin. The reliable Grand Caster. Happy New Year, everyone from Hamelin. Your story has carved another new page. This is truly wonderful, something to rejoice in. Because I just love your stories, you see! Your individual selves? Oh, no, not really... well, you know? Unlike a certain princess, I don't really have much sentiment for your individual selves, do I? How was the Gacha bag?"

"And—aren't you all being a bit harsh on me!? Why is that!? I'm your reliable older brother, Merlin! I talk about the King a lot during farming runs, don't I!? Well, mostly about the geographical conditions of my own paradise, though. —Oh dear. I don't recall doing anything to upset you all...?"

"Well, setting that aside. As part of my image-building activities as your reliable older brother, I've prepared some New Year's gifts. You like New Year's gifts, don't you? You're probably on the giving side now, but you deserve some perks once in a while."

"And this also serves as rehabilitation for the author. I was preemptively writing due to concerns about Comiket, so while I've been posting daily, the actual intervals between posts have been wider."

"He said, 'Daily accumulation weakens oneself!' The Heroic King's way of weaving words is fatally important not to let dull. Not missing a single daily reply is partly for that reason. If I slacked off for three days, posting would likely become impossible."

"So, thanks for waiting. I'm giving you all a New Year's gift. I'm sure you'll love what's inside."

"Inside is—the voice material for 'Gilgamesh (Gorgeous)'! I want you to savor the differences in each and every line! You'll understand just how good his mood is! Now, shall we go!"

Commence

The one and only good-humored King! To battle!

Commence (2)

I shall pound into your very being the meaning of making an enemy of the Gorgeous me!!

Skill

Fuhahahahahahahaha!!

Skill (2)

The selection of treasures is complete!

Command Card (1)

Good!

Command Card (2)

Do not worry!

Command Card (3)

Trust in me!

Noble Phantasm Card

The potential of humanity, all of it is my treasure!!

Attack

Fuhahahahaha!!

Attack (2)

Excellent! This is getting enjoyable!!

Attack (3)

Vanish before my glorious might!!

Extra Attack

The Gorgeous me has no blind spots!!

Noble Phantasm

The fires of destruction fill the heavens, and I stand in the chasm between heaven and earth. Now, struggle and squirm. What you challenge now is all that exists in this world. The countless treasures I bore upon my back since ages past!! Let the curtain rise! 『The Final Hour of Heaven and Earth's Billows: Utu-Napishtim』!! Bind them, 『Chains of Heaven』!! Rise, ultimate waves! —Draw the curtain on all! 『The Star of Creation that Divides Heaven and Earth: Enuma Elish』!!

—Fuh—ahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!

Damage

Fuhahahahaha!! Otherwise, there would be no challenge, would there!!

Damage (2)

Hmph!

Incapacitated

We retreat! Not a withdrawal, but a full-force charge towards the rear!!

Incapacitated (2)

I have exposed an unsightly display. Forgive me, Aer.

Victory

Worship and revere! And then die! Fuhahahahahahaha!!

Victory (2)

Do you understand? This is what it means to make an enemy of the Gorgeous one!!

Victory (3)

I am tired. Aer, I leave the vessel to you.

Level Up

You contribute, and I shine! That is but natural! Do not worry, I shall surely reward you for your troublesome efforts! Praise me! Praise me!!

Spiritron Dress Ascension: "Rider Suit"

Hmph, even in battle, one must not forget a sense of playfulness, no? Carelessness? Fool! This is called having leeway!!

Spiritron Dress Ascension (2)

Do not be so impatient. Go take a breather in My Room.

Spiritron Dress Ascension: "Aer in right hand, Enkidu in left, Chains of Heaven + Mythological Garment drifting about"

Why are you surprised? Just like you, I too have reasons never to display unsightly behavior. In the sense of a battle that cannot be lost, our objectives align. This is the form that manifests that resolve. Though it is far too extravagant for you.

Spiritron Dress Ascension: "The King seated on his throne, gazing at the edge of the universe. Beside him, the figure of someone he protects."

I wonder when the day will come for your selfish wish to be granted. Troubles pile up, mongrels appear endlessly, one after another. —But I, too, seem to be getting on in years. For I find myself 'enjoying' such a bustling daily life. Truly, I have picked up a rare soul, haven't I? —Now, what are you doing? If your hands are free, pour sake into my vessel. Advance through your days with unwavering resolve. For you, too, are now my treasure. By my name, I shall not forgive any unsightly behavior, understand?

—Please continue to look after the Heroic King!

Bond Level (1)

By some karma, a contract has been formed. I shall accompany you as long as you do not bore me. —But it's nostalgic. This My Room, inferior to a cattle shed.

Bond Level (2)

I am in a good mood. I shall laugh off all impudence. But let me tell you one thing, do you understand? I tolerate carelessness and conceit—but I absolutely will not tolerate sloppiness!!

Bond Level (3)

You work tirelessly. That earnestness must be praised. Now then, I shall take on half of your duties. Do not worry! Nothing is impossible for me!!

Bond Level (4)

What I thought would be a short stroll has become surprisingly comfortable. This shabby My Room reminds me of Chaldea before it became paradise. —Hmm? Are you interested? Don't be. You're guaranteed to want to die when you see your current circumstances.

Bond Level (5)

Your enemy is my enemy. If you rise, it is only natural that I, too, shall sortie. My kingly way is acquisition and protection. Treasure worthy of my patronage must be contained within these hands! Now, take my hand, my other final Master! From this point forward, I shall be your sword—!!

Dialogue (1)

...Hm? What, you can't find a topic? Don't bother. I have no shortage of conversational partners. The conversation is lively enough over here.

Dialogue (2)

Sit as you please, I permit it. —Hmph. Shall I offer some sake?

Dialogue (3)

Is Marie here? Not Maria, but Olga Marie. —I see. What a truly regrettable thing to lose. —...

Dialogue (4)

Is Romani well? I trust his perverted hobbies have improved? Hmph, it seems he prefers to cling to idols wherever he goes.

Dialogue (5)

Have you ever witnessed ultimate beauty? If it is your wish, I might just show you. However—do not be captivated, understood?

Dialogue (Marie Antoinette)

Marie, is it. That one is a good queen. Worthy of attending me. Perhaps I shall invite her to accompany me to the bath later.

Dialogue (Jeanne d'Arc)

A woman who knows no love, whose flag-waving led her to Strength B... I warn you. Do not teach her the concept of mapo tofu. Not if you wish to live.

Dialogue (Jeanne d'Arc Alter)

This Jeanne Alter seems quite twisted, doesn't she. She doesn't even run a sweets shop, and seems distrustful of her Master too. Truly, the difference of being sought after or not seems clear. —Hm? What is it, Master? Is something bothering you?

Dialogue (Nero Claudius)

Nero, is it. That one never changes, wherever she is. A welcoming live concert? Unnecessary! Can you not hear me say 'Unnecessary'!!

Dialogue (Mysterious Heroine X)

Artoria, is it. That one is everywhere. —What? You don't know which Artoria? That Artoria. That one, with the sword and the tracksuit... There are two!?

Dialogue (Artoria Pendragon Alter)

I have no business with a tyrant fallen to earthly desires. You have bad taste, don't you? Do you have a death wish? It is you who will be swallowed by the darkness you created, and perish along with it?

Dialogue (Artoria Pendragon Lancer Alter)

A needlessly grown body, a mind filled with earthly desires, having lost its ideals! Out of the question! Unspeakable! Enough of raping my ideal knightly concept!! Argh, how infuriating, how much more must you trample on my ideals before you are satisfied! Artist God, I am angered! No, I am angry!!

Dialogue (Artoria Pendragon Lancer)

Lancer Artoria. While her physique is not to my liking, in all other respects, she is truly a vessel worthy of entrusting my right arm to. Have you lit a fire in her heart? If not, hurry up and confess to her. —To fall into such a pitiful filth as a 'goddess,' everything will be too late. And above all—her smile, it is not bad—

Dialogue (Mysterious Heroine X Alter)

Oi, why are you sitting on the throne. ...What? You are an anti-Saber decisive weapon? ...Do you have a fever? Wagashi? Give me some? If you don't give me some, you won't return the throne?

—Will a box of sweets suffice?

Dialogue (Artoria Pendragon Archer)

It seems her mind has gone mad from stress and the summer sun... I sympathize with your troubles, Saber—!? What are you doing, you fiend!! Very well! You shall witness my beach cannon!! I, too, am the ruler of the beach!!

Dialogue (Santa Alter)

———Resident of Uruk, Gilgamesh-kun. What a troublesome incident.

Dialogue (Mysterious Heroine X Alter (Maid))

You, providing service? Are you an idiot? Diligence, purity, attentiveness. You possess none of these. Learn from my greatest treasure—(Gunshot)

Dialogue (Artoria Pendragon Saber)

—By all means, cherish her well.

Dialogue (Ozymandias)

So, the Sun is here too. You and I, we are already unrivaled, are we not! Truly, the Golden Ancient Kings, number one and number two! Fuhahahahahahahaha!!

Dialogue (Gilgamesh Caster)

Hmm, there is a wise me here, isn't there. And Chaldea is in this state even with him here. —Well, it can't be helped. It seems even I cannot compare to myself in terms of generosity, after all.

Dialogue (Gilgamesh Archer)

Aer, do you remember what I told you once about how to deal with me? The perfect guinea pig is right there! That defenseless back, those feet! Now—it is time for practice!!

Dialogue (Kid Gil)

I see through your intentions. Begone. I will kill you.

Dialogue (Ishtar)

Fool!! Why did you not consult me before contracting with that one!! I would never have nodded in agreement!! It cannot be helped, I shall eliminate her along with Chaldea right here—!! ...Hm? Siduri will be angry? ...Tch... If you say so, then generously, generously!! I shall let it pass...

Dialogue (Ereshkigal)

Hmm, that one is here too. The mistress of the Underworld, Ereshkigal. —She's hopping around looking happy. Well, it's understandable, perhaps. She never had such freedom.

Dialogue (Enkidu)

—I see. So even that one can be summoned.

Cherish him well. For me, it is a bond that can no longer be.

Dialogue (EMIYA)

That faker is everywhere, isn't he. Could he be my stalker? —He's an eyesore. I might accidentally send him to the dojo.

Dialogue (Chulainn)

So the dog was here after all. Your wandering in search of a master is truly comical. Here, have a hot dog. Eat it thankfully. What? You've multiplied again, you say? Fool! I am! The one and only Gorgeous King!!

Dialogue (Chulainn Caster)

Haa—hahahahaha!! Still playing the sage, how ill-suited you are! N-no! It suits you, it su—hahahahahahahahahahahaha!!

Likes

Things I like? —Let's see. My recent pleasures are remodeling and... the cultivation and care of innocent souls. That is why I am here as the Gorgeous one.

Dislikes

Stop the mapo tofu! I repeat, stop the mapo tofu!! Try to bring it before me, and after I finish it, I shall tear you to pieces, throw you into filth, and drink sake while savoring your slow decay!!

About the Holy Grail

I have no interest in mere Holy Grails. I only collect World Grails. An inexhaustible cup, isn't that Romani?

Event Start

Wake up, Master! Don't dawdle! This is an excellent opportunity to enrich your pathetic, bird's nest of a storage! Go on farming runs! If you need a Servant, call me!

Birthday

Take your seat! Grab a glass! It's your birthday, I shall celebrate it grandly! Compile your presents into a list!! Now let's go!! Cheers!!

Summon

UUR Ultra Uruk Rare, Gorgeous Gilgamesh has arrived! I have come for an inspection! Be thankful with your whole being that you have been able to witness me!! Fuhahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!

"Phew, I guess that's about it? It's long! Really long! 4000 characters in text is tough!"

"Well, I'll overlook this much hardship! After all, it's the 200th time, and a day celebrating New Year's! Even this heartless man will allow himself heartfelt congratulations! Thank you so much! I'm very proud too! I'm not interested in you personally, but I love the stories you weave! Please continue to support them!"

"Well then, see you! If you ever become innocent, come play in my paradise—!"

"MERLIN PROMISE DESHI FOUUUU!!!"

"You zappari league—!?"

"Ahaha, my celebration was stolen. Oh well. If his charm was conveyed, then that's fine."

"Bye-bye, everyone. Just because it's New Year's, don't be too lazy, okay? I might come to clean... Hehe, just kidding."
