[It is probably foolish of him to trust him so easily, all things considered—even Gilgamesh is aware of that, but he doesn't really mind it, either. For one, it'd make things easier if there ever came a time when they needed to rely on one another here, but more than that, earnestness was just something he could appreciate, a trait to be valued. It may be foolish, but foolishness wasn't always a bad thing.]

Heh. Of course. That's only natural. I am skilled in all things, after all. [That literally doesn't make any sense. But he's going to claim skill long before he claims heritage, that's for sure.] Fortunately for you, I am a generous king, and so I will not require anything in return. Well, considering I already know your name, it's not like it would've been a fair trade, anyway.

Then again, lessening the chances of having to fight a Lancer someday is kind of its own reward.]
