The chains bind him like snakes as they coil around him despite his continuously destroying them. Even when he attacked the magic spell formation, it seemed to be protected from the outside as he had no choice but to give up.
Furthermore, he couldn't access his strongest sword due to his imprisonment.
" Well played, bastard. Do you believe that I would stay in your puny trick and do you expect that you can defeat my comrades with these toys?"
Gilgamesh raised his hand, grinning like he always does. The cold look in his eyes could freeze the man if it was able to, but he couldn't do anything since he was firmly sealed in this place. He understood he was trapped by these bastards and they deliberately showed their weakness to loosen his guard which was successful.
" I know this won't last, but I promise you that your city will be in our palm in the end. Your leader will be murdered by people whom he swore to protect."
The mage revealed his face with a serious face. He was Baron Mordo who was an old friend of Arthur and Strange. He had a long scar on his face as he held Arthur's book in his hand, but unlike before this book was excluding dark energy that was contaminated by evil beings.
" What took you so long?"
A woman with white hair walked out from the warp gate. She gazed at Gilgamesh who was firmly bound with a smile and slapped his face.
" The great king of Mesopotamia looks miserable. Where is your arrogance? Soon, I will deal with all those heroes and gods that were summoned by that mutant. You are nothing but an old relic of the past like others."
She spoke coldly, gnashing her teeth with anger. Perhaps, she had some enmity with him, but that didn't faze Gilgamesh.
" What is your plan? He wouldn't die from hunger and thirst because he already transcended the human realm."
The woman asked, thinking of a way to kill him. However, it was impossible to kill him since he was in a human body and he was near immortal unless they killed him with a holy grail.
" Leave him be. We will monitor his movements and see whether we can kill him. As for our next phase, we will steal the Phantom Zone projector. Did you prepare that thing?"
Mordo showed the gun-like item through a hologram. The woman shook her head with a troubled expression and didn't dare to conceal her failure.
" Unfortunately, we can't access it for now. Even if we get it, it wouldn't be able to kill them."
She spoke calmly, knowing the item wouldn't kill all the servants in Eden. However, she forgot one thing. That item aka holy grail could taint and corrupt their minds, so Mordo was aiming for that. Some servants couldn't be tainted or cleaned, but that wasn't his problem. As long as he could corrupt them and hinder Arthur who could stop them, his plan was guaranteed success. After all without Arthur, heroes would fall out and start another battle between them since he was both a political and spiritual leader of them.
" Don't worry, your time will come soon."
Gilgamesh closed his eyes with an unwilling look, imagining his comrades, friends, and family fighting in the burning city.
Meanwhile in Eden
Finally, Arthur returned from his journey and decided to meet with his new allies after hearing the project was successful. He was delighted to hear that his men were able to save many people in the process of stopping enemies.
" Hello! You must be their leader. My name is Arthur De Medici Frost. A leader of the guardians, a protector of the dimensions, a patriarch of the Medici clan, a noble knight of England, a hero of earth, and finally a good and loving father of these wonderful children."
Arthur grinned brightly, extending his hand to Brimstone. Brimstone's eyes softened when he heard Arthur was a father. He could tell his people trusted him deeply and his children loved him very much. This was a good sign of a good man.
" Liam Bryne, you can call me Brimstone. I am from the United States and I work for the kingdom corporation as a special force leader. I hope we can work together!"
They shook their hands, starting an official friendly relationship with each other.
