The King of Heroes in Re:Zero

Gilgamesh, the King of Heroes, is thrown into the world of Re:Zero just days before the Royal Selection begins.

He does not arrive as a lost traveler.

He does not try to adapt.

He simply walks into the royal hall and declares himself the one true king of this world.

Nobles panic.

Candidates are stunned.

The Sword Saint senses a threat unlike any other.

And Natsuki Subaru? He just became the most entertaining mongrel the King of Heroes has seen in centuries.

This kingdom was already full of witches, cults, and disasters.

Now it has a golden tyrant who believes everything in it already belongs to him.

The Royal Selection was supposed to decide the next ruler.

Gilgamesh has decided that part is no longer necessary.
