Chapter 44 Tokiomi Tosaka: Please give me more opportunities to pretend (2 more)
The heroic king of ancient Uruk, Gilgamesh?
In an instant, many people in the real world and around the world took action, and many historians directly explained Gilgamesh's situation.
Gilgamesh comes from the heroic epic "Gilgamesh" that was excavated and has detailed ancient slate records.
This epic is found in the clay tablets unearthed in the Sumerian area. It is a heroic epic that has been confirmed by humans and has detailed story records.
According to speculation, Gilgamesh existed between the 28th and 26th centuries BC and was the king of the ancient city-state of Uruk.
Legend has it that two-thirds of it is a god and one-third is a human being. It is a natural demigod with extremely powerful power, and its epic story is also very Western in style. It fights mythical beasts, fights gods, descends to the underworld, and rules.
It was the most powerful country in Sumer at that time.
According to the research of historians, Gilgamesh in the epic did indeed exist, but the epic story experienced is most likely based on ancient worship and the effect of exaggerated propaganda.
After all, ancient people, both in the East and the West, actually liked to give themselves the identity of the son of a certain god, and would publicize it based on their need for fame, other interests, or simply showing off.
This type of epic legend basically comes from the same origin, and has continued to emerge in endlessly for thousands of years. The heroic epics of the ancient Greek era were deeply influenced by the epic "Gilgamesh", and there are all kinds of mythical stories.
Although from a modern perspective, these stories are all false, the epic story itself is indeed the first heroic epic for which humans have clear cultural relics evidence. Coupled with Gilgamesh's status as a king, it is the oldest
hero King.
However, now it seems that the epic story should be true, at least Gilgamesh is real, so he can be summoned as a heroic spirit.
Even considering that the supernatural did exist, it is very likely that the gods and monsters in epic legends also existed.
This is very scary to think about.
There is no doubt that Gilgamesh's identity was exposed, which instantly doubled the mystery of the Holy Grail War.
If the other characters all existed in history and were clearly recorded, then Gilgamesh directly brought the heroic spirits of the Holy Grail War into the level of the mythical age, instantly raising the level of several levels.

Yaoguang-Chaldea Temporary Headquarters, Wuliangta Jizi crossed her arms and looked solemn: "Gilgamesh... is really a mythical figure. If he is really a demigod, then... God is
Does it really exist? Or...there were creatures named gods that existed in ancient times?"
"Thinking about it this way, it is understandable that Gilgamesh looks very uneducated. Before the 25th century BC, in that era, even civilizations that reached the national level were bound to be bloody and barbaric in style.
Because the entire human civilization is in an uncivilized barbaric age, both in the East and in the West."
"Even if a king is not strong enough or barbaric enough, he will not be able to control his group of ancient people who are definitely barbarians in the eyes of modern people. Therefore, as a king, he looks uneducated.
That’s understandable.”
Thinking of the records in the epic "Gilgamesh" about Gilgamesh's various cruelties and barbarism, as well as his bare-handed fights with ligers and divine beasts, she felt that she could understand how Gilgamesh's bad character came to be.
Of course, in fact, the direction she wants to go in is very different from the real situation. Whether there is a chance to get an answer in the future depends on the situation.

At Su Yun's house, Artoria suddenly nodded: "He is indeed an ancient king, and this kind of king existed before 2,000 BC. He is really awesome. Even such a demigod can be summoned in the Holy Grail War.
Come out? Or is his identity as a demigod actually false?"
Su Yun smiled and said: "Muyong doubts that Gilgamesh is indeed a demigod. In addition, Liya, most of the demigods in myths and stories actually existed."
Artoria turned to look at Su Yun in surprise: "Ayun, do you know these things?"
Su Yun hummed: "Because I am the observer and liaison of Destiny, so I know many secrets. Now, let's look at the impact first! There are some things that I can't answer you better until you read them.
"
Hearing this, Artoria nodded. She completely trusted Su Yun and immediately turned her head back to continue watching.
But at this time, a new situation emerged.
————
In the light screen image, after Gilgamesh listened to Li Shuwen's answer, his expression suddenly turned solemn and his anger reignited: "How bold! How dare you call the king by his first name! Li Shuwen, don't regard the king's generosity as the basis for your arrogance.
!Your sin is enough for this king to give you the death penalty!"
Li Shuwen smiled nonchalantly and said, "Sorry, sorry, people are old and no longer know how to respect the king. After all, when the old man was alive, the Yan Kingdom had already completed the transformation of the world, and all the emperors and princes had been swept in
The garbage dump of history. Now, it is an era when the people are the masters of the country——"
"So, the king of Uruk who is thousands of years old, you use your royal power of previous dynasties to scare Lao Chan, an old man from the early 20th century. You are really powerful. I don't think it is appropriate, Lao Chan?"
At the end of the sentence, this old man who looked like he was seventy years old still showed an evil smile like an old naughty boy.
This really happy attitude immediately made many people in the real world become fans of Li Shuwen. They all expressed that what Grandpa Li Shuwen said was really good and they supported him.
Of course, this does not include the Holy British Empire and other Western countries that still maintain royal families. Although the royal families and royal families of these countries have now become mascots, they are still symbols of the country. What Li Shuwen said really made them feel very uncomfortable.
Comfortable, but also very awkward.
Gilgamesh was also completely irritated by Li Shuwen's many 'provocations', and his voice became very cold: "You are so bold! Bastard! You treat the king's gift as a joke and offend the king's majesty many times! Only death,
Only then can your sins be washed away! Foolish people are not qualified to live in this world!"
When he said the last words, his voice suddenly rose, and his expression became ferocious with anger at this moment.
While saying this, the space on the left and right behind him suddenly changed. Under the influence of magic, golden ripples appeared like water, and an exquisite sword and a gorgeous spear slowly emerged from the golden ripples.
Emerge slowly.
These two weapons are undoubtedly Noble Phantasms!
The next moment, the camera switched and came to a luxurious mansion.
What appeared was a study room full of simple atmosphere, and Tokiomi Tosaka was sitting in the main seat of the study, facing the window sideways, holding a goblet of red wine in his right hand, and resting his left hand on his deputy.
With his head tilted, a BOSS-like smile on his lips, and his legs crossed, he seemed to be enjoying the moment, mysteriously and elegantly.
The camera moved to the chair next to him. Kirei Kotomine was sitting here with his eyes closed. He suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Tokiomi Tosaka: "Teacher, Assassin and Archer are having a conflict. Do you want to stop them?"
Hearing this, Tokiomi Tosaka's posture and expression did not change. He just shook the wine glass gently to let the red wine sway slowly inside, and said his answer: "It's not necessary, Kirei, I told you before.
, the law of victory is already in our hands, it doesn’t matter what the process is. Since the two servants want to fight, let them fight well."
Kotomine Kirei: "But in terms of combat effectiveness, Assassin is far inferior to Archer in terms of panel attributes and Noble Phantasms. Does it really matter?"
Tokiomi Tosaka took a sip of red wine and then said slowly: "Kirei, you have to have more confidence in your servants. Don't forget which country this land belongs to and what the people here believe in."
What is it again - Assassin here has a full local blessing effect, and its intensity is more than doubled compared to other places."
"Even if Assassin, who is least good at frontal combat, is summoned, he cannot be easily defeated by the king who is so arrogant that he is unwilling to show even half of his true strength. If he doesn't do it right, he may lose."
Kotomine Kirei was silent: "..."
Tokiomi Tosaka looked out the window: "Kirei, don't you understand?"
Kotomine Kirei: "Teacher, please clarify."
Tokiomi Tosaka: "That king is too arrogant, so arrogant that it has had a negligible impact on my plan. Although it is only insignificant, for me, letting that king feel defeated and knowing that I am not invincible is the most important thing."
good result."
Kotomine Kirei was silent for a moment, then nodded: "I understand, I will use the command spell to help Assassin when necessary."
Tokiomi Tosaka smiled, stopped talking, closed his eyes and sipped slowly, tasting the wine in the glass. He seemed to have no concern for what happened at the port. He was elegant and calm, showing the demeanor of a mysterious big boss.
