Chapter 110: Xhatal Academy A note from KenKaizen Slay Hero Gilgamesh [Golemancer Villain LITRPG] "Gilgamesh be mine name." This is the story of someone who starts at the very bottom with no talent, destiny, or cheats, and becomes the greatest of them all. The only thing Gilgamesh wanted was to be worthy of his name. To live up to the legacy of the First Hero. But no matter how much of himself he gave, no matter how much he endured, he could not awaken the gift of Magic. Until the Tower opened its gates. The Tower is a wondrous place where anything can be earned. Even talent. Even the right to a name. As Gilgamesh overcomes the challenges of the Tower and gains the magic he has sought for so long, his ambition grows beyond the destiny his name holds. But the odds are stacked against him. Gilgamesh is among the weakest Heroes of this Ninth Epoch, and his rivals are blessed with incredible power and glorious destinies. The path to greatness is long and full of thorns, but none are more willing to walk it than a leper with a stolen name. Fate has rejected him, so he will defy it.

Sora Brontarion Many eyes gazed upon me in the auditorium, their intentions clear as day. Everyone wanted to know their future. One after another, I denied the advances, and one after another, students left my side despite my attempts to connect and interact with them. The idea of being used as a tool made my blood boil. I wanted to be seen as something more than that. A person who can gain the favor of people not because of the benefit I can provide, but because they saw the world the way I did. It wasn't long before the only person who sat next to me was my sleeping brother. Names were being called to the stage so the faculty could scan our astral reflections–some I recognized from events hosted by the Great Families. I focused on gaining as much insight into each student as possible. I knew this academy was not a place where people could flourish by themselves, so I had to make allies. The teachers were seasoned at hiding their expressions, giving only the slightest indication that they were pleased with what they saw. But they couldn't hide it from me. My body absorbed microscopic electric currents. They flowed into my psyche like a roaring river, transmitting the emotions of everyone in the room—an overwhelming trait of my constellation ability. Just as I was gaining insight on the student from the Zmei clan, a gust of wind hit the back of my neck. Turing around, I saw two familiar faces—my cousins from the Kazehoshi clan, Bayu and Pavani. Bayu, the older of the two, had a wide grin on his face, while Pavani looked down and away. Bayu had always been the mischievous grandchild who kept our grandpa on his toes. At least that's what he tells Jace and me. “All alone? Seems no one likes you, do they, little cousins,” he said, his arms crossed as he leaned back in his seat. My chest tightened, and my stomach started to burn. But I knew these weren't the result of my feelings. They came from Bayu himself. I had hoped he would grow out of his toddler ways, but it appears not. He still held resentment in his heart. I got up from my seat and walked toward my family. I wanted to put an end to this. I haven't had many chances since our mother’s side of the family lives on the Antora continent. “Bayu, can we please be cordial here. We are family. We need to stick together instead of doing this.” I said, standing firm next to his seat, offering a hand. “I'm gonna decline,” “Why!” “Why would I align myself with a dork?” he said, blowing me back with a gentle wave of his hand. “Besides, who wants to be overshadowed by the precious Brontarion Twins?” I looked at Pavani for reinf
