"I'm not going, father!"

"Y/N, you're being irrational. Go with your mother and your sister, it's the only way you can all be safe"

My father tried to reason with me.

But, we both know i won't budge.

This is stupid!

If he expects me to fight in the next Holy Grail War, how can he say that i shouldn't stay with him for this one?

Wouldn't it prepare me even better?

..And those were the points i had continued to make throughout the entire morning.

"I will not change my mind father. I'm staying whether you agree to it or not!"

And he continues to only sigh at my protests.

But, he knows me, we both know i'll get my way here..

Which means i've already won this argument.

Just some yelling here and there to secure it.

"Y/N, it's just not safe-"

My mother goes for her attempt, but of course it is no more effective than my fathers.

"Will it be any safer when it's my turn? This is invaluable experience, don't you want me to have every advantage possible when it's my turn?"

And with one long sigh, he finally gives in.

"...You can stay... But, any reckless behaviour and you will go back to your mother and your sister immediately, where it's safe!"

A huge victorious smile takes over my face, but i try to maintain at least a somewhat serious expression.

It didn't work..

"Deal!"

I quickly grab my father's hand and shake it.

"Thank you father!"

And then i hastily leaving his office.

On my way back to my room, i felt something... off.

I couldn't really explain it but, unable to shake the feeling, i look out the window beside me..

At just that glance, i could tell the feeling was coming from was outside.

I can't help but curse my own curiosity, as i rush down the stairs and slightly pull open the back door.

I couldn't see anything there.

But i could sense something.

That's when i saw it..

A completely black silhouette, only the white mask on its face making it noticeable.

But, before i could even lift a finger, something flies over my head.

A solid gold weapon flies at the figure, embedding itself in its arm, pinning it back against the ground.

I look up to see a stunning man clad in golden armour.

"You're just a grotesque worm..." the elegant man calls out to the now impaled silhouette in the garden.

"Why are you here?" he asks, before sending a even more arrows flying.

And a terrifying explosion erupts around the figure.

"You are not worthy to look upon me.. a filthy worm like you should be facing the ground" the man then calls out... to no one.

I mean, the figure had been completely pulverised.

While i just kind of stood there speechless..

This must be my father's servant..

Gilgamesh.
