Even if the creator didn't know history, the people shown were Gilgamesh's own subjects.
As king, he couldn't forget those who once followed him.
But only he had descended into this era—how could anyone else remember so clearly?
The timeline was also wrong. His growth, the order of events… all of it was off.
This video wasn't based on his memories at all.
It was made from someone else's viewpoint.
Yet it was so real it felt authentic.
"Find out when the next episode drops. I'm very satisfied with this video… and even more satisfied with its author!"
Gilgamesh laughed.
If he guessed correctly, the uploader might be from his own era—
perhaps even older.
Maybe a god.
Even reduced to a Servant, a divine spirit would still be stronger than ordinary heroes.
"My king, this uploader also posted another video earlier—about King Arthur. Shall we play it?"
"Oh. That king who never understood human hearts?" Gilgamesh perked up.
"Play it."
But just as the video began, a minister burst in, frantic.
"My king! Something terrible has happened. Internationally—something huge!"
"Speak properly. Don't babble!"
Gilgamesh lost interest the moment he was interrupted.
"Y-your Majesty…" The minister shuddered under his gaze.
"Just now, that King Arthur held a press conference."
"A press conference? So what?"
"It's not the content—it's the severity. According to what that King Arthur said…"
He swallowed hard.
"A video creator named 'Stand User'—his videos are real. Not this timeline's events, but another timeline's. Another King Arthur has already descended into this world!"
The minister blurted it all out in one breath.
People exchanged strange looks.
Because the name in the corner of their current video was indeed "Stand User."
Could it really be that coincidence?
"Here's the press conference video."
He played it on screen.
"Everything in the videos is true…"
At that line, everyone glanced at Gilgamesh.
Because that meant their king's video was real too—
just from another worldline.
"Hahaha. Interesting. Another me, is it?"
Gilgamesh finished the conference and understood.
Just then, from outside the hall came a voice identical to his.
"Oh? I'm surprised I can still meet another me here. How amusing."
Gilgamesh on the throne looked toward the door.
Someone identical to him stood there.
"Are you here to compete for my throne? I'll take you on anytime."
"I'm not interested." The newcomer waved dismissively.
"Keep the name Gilgamesh and the title Hero King. My name is—Godslayer."
Godslayer's arrogance hadn't changed one bit.
But he wasn't being controlled by a main persona now, and with that mindset, he had no interest in kingship.
Instead, he deliberately separated himself from this Gilgamesh.
"I'm leaving." Godslayer turned away.
"If one day your people suffer and your nation is harmed, I will return… Though I hope that day never comes. Hahaha!"
His classic laugh echoed through the hall.
"Interesting. No one can steal my throne—not even myself!"
Gilgamesh laughed in response.
But right as his laughter rang out—
the ceiling shattered.
An almost identical scene.
The ministers' hearts collectively froze, remembering one person.
"Cough, cough… Is this the era where the Hero King descended?"
A proud, tsundere voice came through the dust.
A graceful figure stepped out.
Ishtar stared at the king on the throne, then frowned.
"You're not him. Not the same. Where did he go?"
"Useless goddess, you and that me should be from the same era," Gilgamesh said coolly.
"He left. I don't know where. If you go after him now, you might still catch him."
He pointed outside.
He was surprised she'd put on more clothes this time, no longer dressed so scandalously.
It seemed the other worldline's Ishtar had been changed by another him.
"Hmph. I'll overlook your insolence this once." Ishtar looked hurried.
"But if you dare badmouth me again, I'll blast your Uruk!"
She sprinted out, chasing after Godslayer.
The ministers finally exhaled in relief.
Her threat to "blast Uruk" had scared them stiff.
"Goddess…" Bev murmured as she watched Ishtar's back.
"She feels… familiar."
"Hahaha. Even gods are showing up. This world gets more fun by the second…"
Gilgamesh waved.
"Someone, keep playing the video."
