Night fell on Ainsberm Castle once again.
Because of the exit of Aemiya Qietsi, the surprise attack on Ainsbelem Castle in the original novel did not happen again, and Father Mapo was still hidden somewhere.
In the cold courtyard, the little fairies were decorating the venue in the courtyard. It was different from the simplicity in the original novel.
Zou Xu had put in a lot of effort into this banquet. After all, he felt that he had asked the king to leave after the banquet.
After the fairies finished decorating the venue and left, the long table was already filled with all kinds of delicacies.
"It's almost time." Zou Xu said softly as he looked at the bright moon in the sky.
As expected, the sound of the Iskandar God Powered War Chariot could be heard from the distant sky as soon as Zou Xu finished speaking.
“a~~lalalalalle!”
"Yo! Berserker! I'm here for the appointment!" Iskandar, who was carrying a large wooden bucket on his shoulder, jumped out of the chariot. Beside him was his somewhat timid master.
Welcome, Rider." Zou Xu stood up to welcome him.
"Oh! What a sumptuous banquet this was! Perfect!" After seeing the delicacies on the long table, Iskandar put down the large wooden bucket on his shoulder.
"Try the wine I brought! It wasn't easy for me to find this!”
Zou Xu smiled and took out a few crystal cups from the void.
"Oh? You seem to have a Treasured Artifact similar to my 'King's Treasure'.”
Gilgamesh slowly appeared on a chair. He could not help but say after seeing Zou Xu's ability to take out objects from the void.
Zou Xu glanced at him and threw a wine glass at him. Iskandar also smashed open the wooden barrel, and the fragrance of wine wafted out.
After filling Zou Xu and Gilgamesh's wine glasses with a wooden spoon, he sat down as well.
"Scatter! Let's enjoy delicious food and wine!”
Gilgamesh, who had a wicked smile on his face, picked up his wine glass and took a sip. He then put it back on the table with some disdain and said,"
"How can such simple utensils and inferior wine match the identity of a king?”
Golden waves appeared behind him, but this time, it was not a Treasured Artifact that appeared. Instead, it was a few golden wine cups inlaid with gems.
After throwing the wine cup to the others, Gilgamesh took out his precious wine from the treasure vault and shared it with everyone.
"Come and taste this king's treasured wine! This is what a king should taste!"
After the clear and colorless wine was poured into the glass, Iskandar was the first to drink it in one gulp.
"Oh... Delicious! This is what good wine is!"
"Hmph, of course. Whether it's weapons or wine, my treasure vault will only collect the best! This is the taste of a king!"
Zou Xu smiled and took a sip from the golden wine cup. He had to admit that this was the most delicious wine he had ever drunk.
"Very delicious. As expected of the collection of the most ancient king.”
Upon hearing Zou Xu's praise, Gilgamesh raised his head proudly.""That's still to be said, but..."
Gilgamesh's scarlet eyes looked at Zou Xu.""You seem to have a treasure vault similar to mine, right?”
"Ah... After all, I'm an emperor who has gathered all the things in the world.”Zou Xu took out a white porcelain bottle from the void.
"My treasure vault can only store treasures from China. This wine is called Du Kang, and it is a wine that has been passed down for generations.”
Zou Xu slowly pulled out the stopper of the porcelain bottle, and a rich aroma of wine instantly filled the entire venue. The rich fragrance of the wine made people unable to help but take a sip.
"Oh, oh, oh! This rich wine fragrance! I'm really lucky today."
“？”Weier was eating delicious food when she heard someone talking about luck. She couldn't help but raise her head.
"Ah, ah, ah, I see. It's because of the Luck Goddess that I'm so lucky! Thank you! Goddess!"
Weier tilted her head in confusion. In the end, she felt that this big guy might have a problem with his head.
"A god huh…" Gilgamesh turned his head away in disgust. He did not have a good impression of the gods, unlike Iskandar.
Touching Weier's hair, Zou Xu filled his glass and threw the porcelain bottle to Iskandar.
Although the porcelain bottle didn't look big, it seemed to contain an endless amount of wine. Even the three kings and Wayde didn't drink less.
"Fine wine! Fine wine! Hahahaha!" Iskandar laughed heartily. It seemed that he was very satisfied.
"Oh! This wine is so spicy! However... It's so delicious." Wilbur stuck out his tongue after taking a bite.
Gilgamesh also took a sip and nodded in satisfaction. To be able to obtain the recognition of this picky king, Dukang's reputation was well-deserved.
Satisfied, Iskandar put down the wine glass in his hand and said,"
"Gentlemen! The best of your wines can only be matched by the supreme treasure cup, but unfortunately, the holy grail is not used to hold wine. Now, we are going through a Holy Grail Q A to see if we have the qualifications to obtain the Holy Grail. First, you have to tell us why you want the Holy Grail. Archer, we'll start with you. As a king, try to convince us that you're the only one who's qualified to obtain the Holy Grail.”
Upon hearing Iskandar's question, Gilgamesh sighed helplessly and replied,"
"That should have been mine. All the treasures in the world originated from my collection, but because a long time had passed, it had been lost from my treasure vault, but its owner was still me! Therefore, this was not a question of having the qualifications to obtain it.”
"You mean to say that the Holy Grail was originally yours? Then do you know what the Holy Grail is?”
"No."
Gilgamesh took another sip of the wine and flatly denied Iskandar's question.
" The total amount of my assets has even exceeded the scope of my knowledge. But as long as it's a treasure, it definitely belongs to me. I think this guy can understand this question, right?”
Gilgamesh turned his head and said to Zou Xu.
"Indeed." Zou Xu nodded in agreement. His treasure vault had collected all the treasures in China that were recorded or not recorded. He even had a divine artifact like the Xuanyuan Sword.
Iskandar stroked his beard with his rough fingers and nodded understandingly."
"I more or less understand. It should be said that he is indeed worthy of being the most ancient king and the first emperor. This convenient ability is indeed very enviable.”
"Does that mean that as long as you agree, we can obtain the Holy Grail?”
"Of course I can, but I have no reason to reward you with my treasures.”
Gilgamesh quietly took a sip of his wine and replied calmly.
"Are you reluctant?" Iskandar asked with a smile.”
"Of course not. I will only reward my subjects and people.”
Gilgamesh looked at Iskandar with some mockery.""Or, if you are willing to submit to me, I can give you one or two cups as a reward.”
Iskandar scratched his head helplessly."Ah... I can't do that."
Iskandar changed the topic."But Archer, it doesn't really matter to you whether you have the Holy Grail or not. You aren't fighting for the Holy Grail to fulfill your wishes.”
"Of course! But I won't let go of the guy who stole my property. This is a matter of principle.”
"In other words, laws! The laws that I, as the king, have set!"
Iskandarll nodded.
"What a perfect king, able to carry out the laws he set. However, I still want the Holy Grail very much. My method is to snatch it if I want it, because I, Iskandar, am the Conqueror King.”
"Not necessarily. As long as you invade, I can punish you. There's no room for negotiation.”
"Then we can only meet on the battlefield.”
Iskandar and Gilgamesh nodded solemnly at the same time.
"But before that, let's enjoy the food and wine!”
"Hmph, of course, unless you look down on the wine I brought.”
"What a joke! How could I not drink good wine in front of me!”
"Hahahaha!"
