"Sigh... I'm just annoyed by guys with low emotional intelligence. Can't we talk about things during the day?" Although the other person was just standing quietly at the door, without knocking or shouting, Feton's excessive perception still made him stop. I woke up from my sleep.
There was no other way. Feiton could only get out of bed and open the door. After taking a look at Shirou's condition, he smiled and said, "Humph~ Although his mental state is not normal, it doesn't seem to be completely broken~"
Shirou, who has experienced countless fragments of broken life, no longer has the mentality of an ordinary boy, and replied calmly: "Maybe it is broken, but not necessarily."
Feiton said unexpectedly: "Oh... in other words, have you found the answer?"
Shirou's eyes lost focus, as if looking at the past scene, and murmured: "The last reincarnation, I reincarnated as the Demon King, got rid of the misbehaving subordinates, abandoned the tribe who only wanted to dominate the world, and became a lone adventurer Later, in order to protect a kind-hearted girl who was persecuted by the nobles, I fought with the army of the territory. I won but also attracted more enemies... In the end, the human countries allied forces and the demons who regarded me as a traitor The tribe, the friends I made as an adventurer, and the kind-hearted girl who was the source of everything all became enemies, and I killed them all.
Feiton narrowed his eyes and joked: "As expected of a reincarnated apple, an invincible start will still lead to a bad ending where everyone is the enemy~"
"A bad ending...?" Shirou shook his head calmly, "If it were at the beginning, I would be bound by the contradiction between the identity of the king of demons and the inherent cognition of human beings, and I would not distinguish between right and wrong. The enemy who blindly follows the orders of his superiors is soft-hearted, will be disappointed because his good deeds are not understood and recognized by his relatives and friends, and will despair when the people he protects are betrayed - but now, stepping on the enemy's corpse, I only feel thoughts. Accessible.”
"Really or not~" Feiton spread his hands in an exaggerated manner, "You are not a righteous hero at all, but an evil villain, okay?"
The focus of Shirou's eyes returned to Feton in front of him, and he did not step into the trap of words: "As you said in the past, justice is only personal self-satisfaction and does not need the recognition of others. Compared with 'world peace' and 'protection' Goodness' and so on are more in line with the concepts recognized by the public. My justice is more focused on 'punishing evil and eliminating adultery', nothing more."
"Well, as a victim of the Fuyuki City fire, this is normal." Feiton shrugged and whispered, "However, this is not the expected result..."
Let me make it clear here that he never intended to train Shirou to be a hero, let alone a fellow boundary breaker. If he really had this level of educational talent, he would have raised all his children long ago, and he would not have followed him. Jatis, who has been running around with Cili, has become the most promising son of the devil.
He just casually implements an educational method that may permanently damage Shirou's mind, trying to make Shirou give up on justice without reality.
"There is one thing I need to apologize for." Shirou bowed to Feiton and apologized. "In the past, I used to think that it was enough to have a righteous heart and do my best within my ability. But now I know that in order to realize what I want in my heart, Justice and strength are indispensable!"
Feiton leaned against the door and said angrily: "So... it's back to the original question again? Are you giving me back the hard-earned insights now?"
Shirou didn't defend himself, but just kept bowing and said loudly: "Please guide me in training. I am willing to sacrifice everything, including this life! As long as I can become stronger after reincarnation!"
"——Okay." Lauda opened the door of the master bedroom and walked out.
"Mr. Lauda!?" Shirou straightened up quickly.
"Boss, besides what you did at Hunter Academy, do you have anything else you can teach others?" Dia came out of the shadows and looked at the other end of the corridor. "Leave this kind of thing to Liz."
Liz glanced at Dia and said angrily: "I have no objection, but why not you."
"Are you serious? Demons and heroes don't get along very well." Dia was unwilling to accept such a troublesome job.
"..." Shirou was silent.
Although they didn't get along long enough, he could somewhat understand the temperaments of the four Fetons, and he also realized that they were not the 'just heroes' he had longed for in the past.
"Boss relies on energy to crush his opponents, and I rely on speed to bully others. I can't teach you anything." Feiton knows a lot of things, but he can't compare with Liz, who knows everything. "Well, I can only tell you one good news. In the process of enduring the effects of the reincarnated apple, you have discovered your own strength, and not only that, you have also greatly increased your potential."
In fact, after what Shirou said was his 'last reincarnation', Shirou ate the remaining reincarnation apples, but the effect was not triggered.
Because Shirou has found his own good ending among the absolutely bad endings, the change in mood represents the sublimation of the soul, and the reincarnation apple has no effect on such a soul.
"Power?" Shirou didn't feel that he had become stronger.
Feton looked at Lauda: "Eve, Lei, please come out."
Shirou looked at the two girls floating out of Lauda in shock: "They are...!"
"Theoretically, they were the ones who saved you from the fire. The boss doesn't have this talent." Fedon and Lauda are both members, "But it doesn't matter. You can see them now, and this is proof. .”
Dia said more: "Seriously, haven't you noticed that your night vision has improved a lot?"
"Is that so?" Compared to the power he gained, Shirou seemed to be more concerned about the fact that he had more than one cohabitant.
Feiton put away his frivolous manner and stared at Shirou: "Now, there is one last thing left."
"?" Shirou gathered his thoughts and looked at Feiton.
The next second, he received a heavy slap and slid along the floor to Liz's feet.
"???" Shirou lay on the ground for a while before he recovered. He covered his face and looked at Feiton, not understanding the reason for this slap.
Feiton wiped his palms: "You are right about one thing, you are indeed broken - while you find your own 'justice', you also forget a considerable part of your 'human nature'. When will your eyes become normal? Let’s go to Liz to practice again.”
"Human nature...?" Shirou asked for other people's opinions without knowing why.
Lauda said: "Just listen to him."
Dia mocked: "What~ do you still want a demon to teach you how to regain your humanity?"
Liz looked down at Shirou and thought for a moment before saying: "...Do you still remember what happened before the fire? Just retrieve your humanity from your memory."
"...I..." Shirou lay on the corridor and remained silent for a long time.
