Since Fujimaru Rika and his party of five went to the dense forest, Emiya Shirou has taken on the role of the general guarding Uruk and is stationed in the royal castle.

After a few days of silence, the demonic beasts born from Gorgon's power reappeared outside the north wall, making the north wall busy.

However, compared to the original trajectory, the north wall at this time can be called impregnable.

Because of Emiya Shirou's previous battles, Leonidas, Ushiwakamaru, and Benkei were still alive at this time, and they were stationed there guarding the north wall.

In the face of the three of them, as well as Zhu Cai and Xiao Limulu, as long as the person who came was not Enkidu or Gorgon himself, then the north wall would definitely not be breached.

And before the arrival of the Decameron of Gorgon, they should not attack.

"In this way, it can be regarded as a few days of leisure!"

Walking through the streets of Uruk, Emiya Shirou kept looking around.

Now, under Gilgamesh's orders, he investigates the mysterious death in the city.

During this time, a mass death event was taking place in Uruk.

After a long day's work, ordinary residents could never wake up from a deep sleep.

This debilitating and fatal event is really hard to know.

As an investigator dispatched by Gilgamesh, Emiya Shirou understood what was going on at a glance.

This is clearly the ability of Ereshkigal.

Only as the mistress of the underworld has such ability.

"Quietly taking their lives in their sleep, so that they don't have to feel pain? Is this your gentleness? ”

Emiya Shirou was well aware of Ereshkigale's plans.

She wanted these earthly humans to enter the underworld in the form of souls, so as to escape this catastrophe.

After all, she knew very well that the ultimate enemy of this world could not be defeated.

"This kind of direct divine power, even I can't do anything!"

Feeling the evening breeze, just as Emiya Shirou was about to return to the Chaldean Embassy, a shrine maiden from the Divine Tower suddenly came running and asked Emiya Shirou to hurry to the Divine Pagoda quickly.

"Ha, King Gilgamesh is dead?"

Hearing this, Emiya Shirou quickly rushed to the Divine Tower, where he met the riotous soldiers, ministers, and shrine maidens.

Looking at Gilgamesh, who was placed on the stone platform, Emiya Shirou stepped forward and shouted loudly, "Calm down, now is not the time to panic. ”

"Lady Emiya!"

Seeing Wei Gong Shilang, the chief priest Xi Duli, who was in a panic, hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Wei Gong Shilang, the king is dead, what should I do!" ”

Looking at the panicked and helpless expression of the usually calm and gentle chief priest, Emiya Shirou took her arms and said seriously: "Siduli, now that the king is dead, you are the most powerful person here. ”

"In this stormy moment, anyone can panic, but you can't!"

"You need to calm down as quickly as possible."

Hearing Emiya Shirou's comfort, Siduli was shocked, and then gradually calmed down.

I saw that after she wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, she quickly returned to a calm state.

"Listen, everyone, the news that the king is dead is not allowed to be told to anyone, otherwise it will be convicted of treason! Did you hear that? ”

"Yes, Siduli-sama!"

Hearing Siduli's order, the soldiers and ministers present hurriedly responded.

In this world of gods, divine power and royal power have always been entangled.

The two play against each other, and the winner holds the right to decide.

As the representative of the divine right within Uruk, Siduli, who was the chief priest, was the rightful ruler here in the absence of Gilgamesh, who represented the royal power.

Moreover, Uruk's city god was still active on the earth at this time, and had joined Uruk's camp before.

In this case, if it weren't for Siduri's reverence for Gilgamesh, and for the fact that it was he Gilgamesh who represented the royal power, Uruk at this time would have been a case of theocracy.

Seeing that the news was blocked, Siduli looked at Emiya Shirou and asked what to do next.

"Gilgamesh is not supposed to die a natural death, and while he does work hard, so does a certain guy in Chaldea in such a situation."

"He didn't die as a human, let alone Gilgamesh as a demigod!"

Emiya Shirou exemplified none other than the Chaldean Romani Aqiman, or Roman.

Although Roman's predecessor was the magic king Solomon, he was just an ordinary human at this time.

After learning that humanity was about to come to an end, he began to study endlessly, and he was in a state of fatigue every day.

And after the start of the human rescue, he was overloaded with labor all the time.

Compared to him, Gilgamesh also has a worse workload.

In this case, Roman, who is human, is not dead, but Gilgamesh, who is a demigod, is dead?

This is simply an insult to divinity.

Seeing that Siduli nodded, knowing that she understood, Emiya Shirou continued: "So the cause of the king's death should be the debilitating death incident that occurred in the whole city at this time. ”

"Debilitating and fatal events!?"

Siduri suddenly realized.

In fact, if it weren't for the panic caused by Gilgamesh's sudden death, Siduri would have seen the situation a long time ago.

But alas, it was Gilgamesh, who was the pillar of Uruk, who died.

In this case, Siduli couldn't think at all.

After all, at this time, Gilgamesh's body was burdened with the wishes of many people.

Like the original trajectory, Merlin was shocked when he learned of Gilgamesh's death.

Because in Merlin's heart, Gilgamesh is definitely an immortal being.

"That's right, it's the death caused by the death of debilitation, and I already know about it, and this should be the work of Ereshkigal, who is located in the underworld."

"Through her powers of Hades, she is constantly reaping the lives of the physically weakened on the ground, causing them to die peacefully in their sleep."

"And that's how King Gilgamesh should have died."

"Is there a turnaround then?"

Seeing that it was the goddess who did it, Siduli hurriedly asked.

"Of course there is a turnaround, after all, King Gilgamesh is the center of strategy, and must not die until all the necessary conditions are met."

"Now we can only wait for the return of Fujimaru Rika and them, and only the goddess Ishtar knows the way to the underworld."

"With her to show the way, we should be able to organize people to go to the underworld to rescue King Gilgamesh's soul!"

"That's it! That's great! ”

Seeing that Gilgamesh still had hope of coming back to life, Siduri burst into tears again with excitement.

"Don't get excited, there's still a lot of work waiting for you to do!"

"For example, protect the body of King Gilgamesh and keep Uruk running during this time."

"None of this is possible without you!"

Hearing Emiya Shirou's comfort, Siduli nodded excitedly with tears in the corners of her eyes and said, "Please leave it to me!" ”
