"Because hacking leaves traces and runs a risk of getting caught. Not to mention, this is much more diverse. And with the number of consoles, only one person can search at the time. This is much more effective, even if you stay to hack." he said to Nova as he put on his coat. .

"Well then, I'll be going. Saber will be with me at all times, so don't worry." he said to the group in general before he left.
Gilgamesh had turned from uncaring to one thing that only one other mongrel had ever pushed him to:

Furious.

The mongrel had struck him. The mongrel, the mad dog had dared strike the king of heroes with her accursed powers.

"...you dare... you dare drag me down and make me STAND ON THE SAME GROUND YOU WALK ON?"

Gilgamesh considered unleashing Ea right there and then to dismantle this little pathetic charade, but the King of Heroes calmed himself. Such an opponent; a mad dog, was unworthy of being struck by Ea. Instead, he grasp what he remembered of the situation and smiled.

And he pulled out one more item from the Gate of Babylon. However, this item did not lose it's power. Oh no.

Legends were a mysterious things. Although called "Weapons", they still qualified as long as they were the crystalization; the manifestation of a legendary figure. So long as that was the case, then even though Gilgamesh usually only preferred actual weapons due to the fact he could just throw them at the enemy mundane objects were also in his treasure such as a knife, a jug of wine, wine cups, or a mirror.

Or a bag.

From the Gate of Babylon, a simple looking pouch appeared. The Kibisis Bag. Used by Perseus to hold the head of Medusa, it had a special property.

Power comparisons, draining and any other effect could be summed up as an "equation". "X" amount of power clashed against "Y" amount of power, and X amount was greater, so X won. "Z" amount of power could be drained through Pandora's box, "A" amount of power could be used to destroy a universe, so on.

The Kibisis bag was not bound by such things. No. The kibisis bag's concept did not lie in it's arbitrary power number to be inserted into Pandora's equation of drainage. Instead, the Kibisis bag's power lay in it's ability to change the very equation. Much like the bag expanded as Perseus battled against Medusa, user of Breaker Gorgon, the petrifying gaze, to envelop and protect the greek hero the prototype bag in Gilgamesh's hands also expanded to the size of a great tent enveloping Mia, Necrox and Gilgamesh. It was then that the bag's true concept, not power, but concept came into effect:

A reversal of reality. A mirror-type bounded field; a fold in space. What was "Inside" the bag, that was to say, Gilgamesh, Necrox and Mia, became "outside" the bag, while what was "Outside the bag" - namely, the entirety of Pandora and the entire space which it drew power from, became the "inside" of the bag. As a result, the entire "Space" of Pandora's box became something that was "inside" the bag, while, Gilgamesh, Necrox and Mia were "outside". When Perseus would use his inherited version in his battle against Medusa, under the very same protection Medusa, while uncovered by the bag and therefore "inside" the bag would attempt to use her petrifying gaze to turn Perseus, who was covered by the bag, to stone, but as her power was directed at something "Inside" the bag and she was unaware of the true nature of the bag's potential it was she that was turned to stone, as she was the one that was "inside" the bag. Much like Medusa, Pandora's power was working on the space it still enclosed - the entirety of the inside of the Kibisis Bag. Why was this possible? How would Kibisis Bag not be drained and stripped of power much like the other weapons? Because the moment it was drawn, it's effect of making the "outside" "inside" and the "inside" "outside" was already in effect.

Now enclosed within the bag, the legendary bag that was much more durable than one believed - for it had to be to be worthy of it's place in the King's treasury - for all intents and purposes Gilgamesh, Necrox and Mia were no longer "in" Pandora's Box". Pandora's box was "Inside" the bag. The three, on the otherhand, were "outside".

Standing at his full height once more and no longer obstructed by the draining, Gilgamesh gave a twisted little grin. This was not a comforting, or even a psychotic grin. This was the grin of a tyrant who was about to punish a rebellious servant. With a snap of his fingers, each weapon that fell from the Gate of Babylon, shamefully stripped of their powers, began glowing as their power returned. Returning the shamed weapons to the gate, Gilgamesh pulled out three more weapons.

Kusanagi, the famous Japanese sword said to turn the wind where it swings.
Mjolnir, the great hammer of Thor, said to bring down lightning where it struck.
Ame-no-nuboko, the spear which formed the Japanese islands in it's creation mythos.

The three legendary weapons fired themselves at Mia, this time no longer obstructed by the drainage of Pandora's box.
Gilgamesh turned and glared at Mia as he spoke. "...who do you think you are speaking to, Mongrel?" he sneered. "It does not matter what sort of petty tricks you attempt to use against me - to think that you attempted to undermine the King with mere trickery - know your place."

Unfortunately for Mia, there was a severe difference in most abilities and the Gate of Babylon. While most servants would have to extend their power to summon their noble phantasm; the weapons of their legend, Gate of Babylon worked differently. Gilgamesh himself did not create Gate of Babylon, no, he did not have the ability nor capacity to create it. To attempt to "recreate" the Gate of Babylon would instantly drain even the most prana efficient caster servant. Instead, his Gate of Babylon was something that simply "existed". It was the King's treasury, something from which every single legendary weapon was passed down from. It was something that Gilgamesh did not create; rather his very existence was defined by his ability to access it.

While it did cost him much more exertion than he was used to - something he would have the mongrel pay dearly for - he opened the gate of Babylon. Even with his ability drained to that of a normal person, there was still some thing that ensured he still had enough mana reserves to summon the key.

His Magic Resistance. Even though it was quite low, it was till enough for him to prevent pandora's box from draining that miniscule amont of prana required. Once it was opened, it was a floodgate of power available to Gilgamesh. Behind him, weapons of mighty powers, heroic and legendary weapons from the entire human history appeared behind him. To his left, the Jingu Bang, the great staff of the monkey king sun wukong appeared. Beside it, Caliburn, the sword which King Arthur drew from the stone to become king began to appear from the gate.

Gungnir, the spear of Odin which was said to strike with the power of lightning itself.

Dijun's fury, the nine arrows which the legendary archer Houyi used to shoot down nine suns.

Gae Buidhe, the yellow rose of mortality; the spear wielded by the Irish warrior Diarmuid Ua Duibhne, a weapon which inflicts a never-healing wound upon it's victim.

They were but a few of the many Gilgamesh pulled out. Each weapon would be enough individually for a legend. Together, all in one treasury, they were fit for the King of Heroes. Already, with the power of so many legends, with countless weapons capable of shattering mountains, of rending reality, of reversing the very flow of time being pulled out, Pandora's box began trembling; lightning forming across it's sky as it began to be overwhelmed.

And Gilgamesh had yet to even utilize Ea.

"Lament your insolence and foolishness in attempting to entrap the King and die, mongrel." Gilgamesh proclaimed dramatically as he fired the Jingu Bang and Gae Buidhe at Mia.

You appeared where Mia and Necrox are. They're in Pandora's Box, the prison in which Hope was sealed.


In your post, I'm pretty sure you said you went back the armoury. I assumed that was back in the town.
thewizardguy said
((Nobody said anything about that yet, except in Necrox's thoughts. And Gilgamesh isn't psychic. All he said is that everything would go down, and that isn't very specific. Please edit.))


(Edited)
I hope no one minds, but I had Gilgamesh appear at the armoury. If that's too much of a problem, I'll delete that post.
thewizardguy said
((Really? You created a character that will eliminate all evil when killed? You do realize the moment this becomes known every single good guy in the entire multiverse is going to roflstomp your ass, right? You'd be dead nearly instantly, as all the Primes, Drac, Doctor Who, the Jedi, and every other badass good guy will be turning his face into swiss cheese.))"Everything going down?" Mia smiles, as she leans forward, her claws extending, as the Plague Blade is teleported back to the armory. Her smile is that of a killer standing over her victim, her eyes wild, as she reachs out, her claws extending and twisting to grab Necrox's sides, slicing into the flesh beneath. "You know, in a couple of moments a girl with psychic powers is going to be here. Her name's Hope.This time, however, I'm prepard. I won't be doing a thing. You see, when she looks into your mind, the shock'll blow you to pieces too small to regenerate from." Mia grins, and, as if trying to prove a point, Hope's massive presence can be felt approaching.


Gilgamesh was continuing on his way to the town, staying dematerialized as all servants of the holy grail war could do when he felt a strong presence. A strong presence, perhaps mighty enough to challenge his beloved Saber; King Arturia. It was then that the king of heroes finally decided to reveal himself to the plebians of the land, appearing in the armoury. Taking a look around, it was then he realized that the source was not here yet.

The King of Heroes has graced them with his presence.

"...I appear to be a bit early." he muttered to himself, completely, ignoring the presence of Mia and Necrox. "No matter, I'm sure entertainment will arrive soon enough."

Lissandra finally caught up to Pyrrah, although the sounds of the conversation had been carried to her by the wind. "At ease, child," she said in her cold voice to Pyrrah as she noticed she was still in a fighting stance, "I am not an enemy here."

And with that, the ice witch turned to Haken, Kaguya and Aschen. "A little town in the middle of nowhere?" she said, her mouth beginning to form a frown. "I don't suppose this is on Valoran, is it?"

"No, I can't." Kiritsugu said to Nova. "Servants take a lot out of the master to maintain. If I try to summon another one, then I'll probably be bedridden and crippled."

Kiritsugu was about to consider his own course of action when Ange spoke up, mentioning the idea of finding a library. It was definitely not a bad option by any stretch; indeed it seemed like the optimal course of action.

"I agree." The Magus killer said to the witch of resurrection. "We should take a few of us who are capable of blending in."
So, as Saber is Kiritsugu's reinforcement who gets control of her? BB or I?
