After ten years of wasted time, my wandering around the world has turned around.
Meeting Artoria again, Mr. Jin was happy and joyful.
Ten years ago, outside the Fuyuki Civic Hall, the proposal ceremony was suddenly interrupted. He was actually a little regretful, thinking that he would never see the King of Knights who had great collection and training value again.
After all, it is very rare that the same person is summoned in two Holy Grail Wars, both of Saber class - needless to say, this must be fate's arrangement!
Let me borrow another ten years from heaven, and fate allows me to do it again... propose.
"Saber, I haven't seen you in ten years, and you still look the same. You are still as upright and beautiful as before."
Gilgamesh, who was clearly being scolded and whose nostrils were pointing upwards every day, was not angry at all, but had a smile on his face.
Being magnanimous and ignoring the offense of the other party is rare in a tyrant who has a very bad temper and thinks that he is the boss of heaven, second to earth, and third to others.
At least Renn doesn't have this face, which shows the charm of the stupid king.
but……
Arturia didn't give him any face, remembering the scene she saw under Fuyuki Church, her eyes were cold:
"King of Heroes, right? You have really changed. Ten years ago, I thought you were just a villain and a tyrant, but now, you have become a beast that has lost all humanity!"
Mr. Jin: “…”
Mapo and the King of Heroes didn't care about using the orphans who survived the fire as "human batteries". Their consciences didn't hurt at all, and naturally they had no intention of repenting.
However, this does not mean that others will accept this behavior.
In other words, except for some psychopaths, normal people can't accept it, let alone someone like King Da Mao who pursues chivalry.
Facing the King of Heroes who touched her bottom line now, just like she once did to the French marshal who used a child's body to summon tentacle monsters, she had no courtesy but only murderous intent.
Being attacked again, especially when he noticed Artoria's eyes filled with murderous intent, Jin Shining's face finally turned cold:
"Saber, are you accusing me?"
"It was before, but when I saw your shameless appearance of doing evil without any guilt, I knew it was a waste of time. Sure enough, as Archer said, you are not a heroic spirit at all now, you have changed He has become a resentful spirit with inflated selfish desires!"
Arturia's face was cold. Even if she was hostile, she would rarely speak so fiercely and mercilessly.
Strictly speaking, only the "Great Protector of the Quanzhen Cult" and French Marshal Gilles de Rey had enjoyed this kind of VIP treatment before.
Ten years ago during the bloody battle in Weiyuanchuan, King Da Mao didn't even say hello to the French Marshal when he saw him. His first greeting was - "You monster, what are you going to do tonight?" You can imagine how many things happened there. Don't want to see him.
Now Jin Shining also enjoys the same treatment. It just so happens that they are both Gilles and they both covet King Mao's body.
Chicken... Ahem, Gil sees the same thing. This is Master Ren's comment.
"Archer said...this king is a resentful spirit with inflated selfish desires?"
After hearing Saber's words, Jin Shining's eyes became sharp.
In fact, this description does not come from Ren, but from Brother Dog.
Fate Line After Cu Chulainn found out what Father Mapo had done, he fell out with him as expected. This was Brother Gou's evaluation of him when he faced Jin Shining under the church.
To a certain extent, after Black Mud received flesh, Jin Shining's evil desires did expand, and his behavior was somewhat similar to that of a wraith.
Of course, Shining himself doesn’t think so, and he doesn’t think there’s anything wrong with the way he replenishes his magic power:
"Hmph, Archer is not qualified to evaluate me! Saber, are you feeling angry? Haha, what a pedantic sense of justice, boring chivalry...
This king is just using waste. The human nature in this era is extremely ugly and full of worthless moths..."
Boom──! !
The whirlwind roared and surged, and a huge roar of wind energy suddenly erupted!
The breeze wrapped around the holy sword broke away from its restraints, condensed and compressed in an instant, condensed and materialized, and suddenly blasted towards Gilgamesh like a flying dragon in the sky!
His pupils shrank, Jin Shining reacted very quickly, and his body turned into a golden afterimage and retreated instantly.
The "Wind King's Hammer" immediately hit the ground at his feet.
The ground rumbled and began to tremble violently. The violent and surging wind energy burst out and tore and shattered the earth, rolling up countless mud and dust, leaving a big crater in place!
Halfway through his words, he almost got punched. Mr. Jin's face turned completely dark, and the look he looked at Saber became particularly cruel.
On the other side, Artoria looked at him without fear.
Harming people without any qualms.
She also called the victims trash and moths, she couldn't bear it anymore.
Huhu~
Her soft golden sand-like hair danced in the wind, her white face was covered with frost, and the invisible breeze gathered and wrapped around the gorgeous body of the holy sword again.
Her eyes were cold, she pointed the tip of her sword at the King of Heroes, and her voice was cold and touching:
"That's enough! Gilgamesh, I can't stand your crooked theories, and I don't want to argue with an inhumane guy like you anymore. I'll see the real deal!
Defeat me, then go and defeat Archer, and the Holy Grail will be yours. "
If it were Si Dai, he might still be able to argue and talk a little bit.
As for Wudai, she didn't even bother to listen to such rubbish and extreme remarks.
"Hmph, that guy should be here soon, Saber. You guys have indeed colluded together. Do you want to fight with me?"
A stern smile appeared on Gilgamesh's handsome face.
"Oh, is it possible that you want to fight three against one? With all due respect, you don't have the ability yet!"
Artoria's little face was expressionless, but her tone was mocking.
She doesn't talk about chivalry with everyone. She is a typical example of the French Marshal. When beating him, she doesn't mind having a helper at all.
Jin Shining: "..."
He was silenced again. The key was that he didn't know how to refute.
Under normal circumstances, he is confident that he can fight one against three, but... it really can't be done now, with Archer here.
In the last duel, I was defeated by Archer. Although there was a reason, after all, my face was dull. Now, no matter how much I say that I am not afraid of group fights and can fight one against three, it is just an attempt to provoke people. laugh.
If Red A were here, he might retort─"Hmph, you still talk about gang fights so plausibly, saber, is this your chivalry?"
But Mr. Jin is not so tricky, and unlike Hong A and Ren, he doesn't know her as well as he can make her speechless.
After being slapped in the face by the stupid king many times, Mr. Jin almost wanted to devour anyone with his eyes: "Very good, Saber, then I will deal with you first, and then deal with that annoying faker!"
His words struck a chord again.
Because of this extremely arrogant tone and the attitude of pointing his nostrils upward, King Dumao didn't take him seriously at all. He treated him like meat on the chopping board - he could cut it however he wanted.
'Who are you looking down on? '
Saber gritted her teeth at being looked down upon in this way, she was very angry, very angry.
This is what she can't stand the King of Heroes and Archer the most!
Both of them are extremely conceited and arrogant at heart... Although Archer appears to be a little more humble, in their hearts they only regard each other as their rivals, with the attitude that I am the best in the world and the other is the second in the world.
As for the other servants, I'm sorry, they are all rubbish.
Renn: I’m not targeting anyone, everyone here is...
'Archer, since you've already arrived there, why did you let Shirou and I take action first? '
'Don't you want to prove that you won't win by lying down? I won on the first day, what do you want me to do? '
'...Hmph, you can take the first shot. If you lose, I will finish it off! '
'No, you can't, girl. For the sake of the overall situation, I have to make the final appearance. Don't say I'm taking advantage. If you lose, I can still win. If I lose, you can just vote.
Be obedient, otherwise if you lose, you will be fucked by that golden pickup truck. '
'you……'
'You what? Saber, I'm really busy and I don't have time to continue talking nonsense with you. If you want to have any more opinions, then I will directly join hands with Rider to kill that golden pickup truck. You win, are you ok? '
'..., didn't you mean a one-on-one challenge? '
"It's a one-on-one duel. I'm also a Master, and I'm dueling with Rider between Kinpika and Kotomine Kirei. Is there any problem with 2vs2?"
'...'
This was the conversation the two had when Archer used magic to contact her.
Now it is discovered that the King of Heroes only pays attention to the opponent Archer and does not take her seriously at all... Artoria naturally becomes more and more angry as she thinks about it, and her eyes become very sharp:
"Go ahead, Gilgamesh, maybe you can't even pass my level!"
These two arrogant men are really annoying. When had the Knight King of Britain been so underestimated?
In fact, Wu Dai had never seen Shining's Guili Sword, and she wasn't too frustrated last time, so she was naturally very stubborn after she recovered.
"You are very confident. It seems that the lessons I taught you ten years ago were not enough."
There was a hint of joking in those bloody eyes, and Jin Shining's tone was very conceited.
He looked down at this woman who had once made his heart beat, and decided to take care of her.
She won't listen to him properly unless he's beaten.
"King's Treasure" was activated again, and ripples appeared in the space behind Jin Shining. Scimitars, swords, spears, halberds, war hammers... hundreds of golden vortexes shone in all directions, and various weapons emerged from them. !
There is no test, and hundreds of weapons are used, and they are not low-level goods.
He wanted to resolve the battle as soon as possible and save more magic power to face the most difficult archer.
Sharp cold light shone in all directions, and the sparkling and polished weapons were arrayed in the air with surging magical energy, all aimed at King Da Mao.
The sharp edge that seemed to be about to be pierced by thousands of arrows made Saber's green pupils shrink slightly subconsciously, and she clenched the holy sword tightly with her hands wearing silver wrist guards.
I have to admit that although this guy is annoying, his fighting ability is indeed very strong.
But she won't be afraid.
"Saber, let me subdue your aloof heart!"
The domineering president, Mr. Jin, raised the corners of his mouth slightly and raised his hand.
Boom boom!
Accompanied by bursts of thunder-like explosions in the clear sky, hundreds of cold weapons behind him cut through the void, stirring up chaotic air currents along the way, and struck down like thunder!
Facing such ferocious firepower, Artoria remained calm.
bass!
The combat boots on the soles of her feet were stepped hard, and the layer of soil instantly cracked and sank!
The endless flow of magic power in her body was also released, forming a huge boost force that made her fly through the low altitude as fast as a silver arrow, and the edge of the holy sword in her hand was pointed directly at the King of Heroes!
Ten years later, King Dumao fights against the King of Heroes again, vowing to prove his strength.
That's commendable courage, but considering she doesn't have a scabbard...
………
In the eastern sky, the sun has already revealed a fiery red head, but the environment in the woods still looks quite quiet, with a slightly cold temperature and a light mist.
Kotomine Kirei searched for Illya for a while, but found nothing. Although he was a little unwilling, he had to give up.
He didn't know what Archer was thinking, but there was no harm in getting rid of Saber and Shirou, who were obviously unable to win over, as soon as possible.
Mapo was about to go back and take Shirou away, retaining his strength as much as possible and then fight Tohsaka Rin and Archer, but found that the other party had disappeared.
Where are people?
The priest squatted in the grass, looking around, but he felt a little irritable.
Someone had reached the Little Holy Grail first, which always gave him a thrilling feeling of horror.
It was as if a large invisible web had been spread out. In the darkness, Archer's poisonous spider had opened its venomous mouthparts, waiting to eat him and the King of Heroes...
"Kotomine Kirei, are you looking for me?"
Behind the priest, a young man's voice filled with anger suddenly came.
Mapo: "..."
Kotomine Kirei, who was looking around in the middle of the grass to search for enemy troops, suddenly felt something in his heart.
He turned around and saw Emiya Shirou standing there expressionless under a poplar tree. The sunlight cast the boy's shadow, but his face was extremely cold.
Don't wonder how the young hero accurately found this old man who wanted to backstab him.
With Mr. Lei, an enthusiastic citizen in the sky, positioning his "Delusion-breaking Eye" and personally guiding the route forward, it is equivalent to opening up the full map field of view. Isn't it easy to find a bush dog?
Kotomine Kirei was not attacked just now because the young hero was upright.
Switching to Kiritsugu, Mapo had already been hit in the head by the "Origin Bomb".
Kotomine Kirei felt his throat was a little dry. This was not caused by the cold gaze of the young man in front of him, but because he knew that his every move was being monitored.
He regretted it a little. He would have gone all out from the beginning if he had known it!
Why are they so passive?
There was no other reason, Kirei knew, it was just a waste of time.
In order to achieve his goal, Archer even pretended to be a human magician to deceive and sneak attack Caster, who was far weaker than him... Being both a director and an actor, what kind of investment and all-out effort is this?
And what is the King of Heroes doing during this time?
When I play games at home, I almost don’t care about anything.
Even he himself was slacking off, always thinking about how to be happy, and wasting too many opportunities in the beginning. If he had used the enthusiasm he had for fighting Kiritsugu ten years ago...
As for now, no matter how unwilling you are, you can only follow other people's rhythm.
Father Mapo calmed down and stared at the young man in front of him with his gray eyes: "Emiya... Shirou, it must be Archer who is guiding you. You are really being fooled."
"It does not matter."
Shirou did not deny that it was Archer who told him the priest's hiding place.
The young man clenched his fists and looked unhappy. In fact, he had been depressed since he entered the church last night.
"Tell me, Kotomine Kirei, why, why, do you treat those children who survived the fire like this?!"
"Why? There is no reason. It's just that they lost their families and parents, so it was convenient for them to be adopted by me. Moreover, they are all orphans. Even if they disappear, no one will really care about them... They are the most suitable food for the King of Heroes."
Kotomine Kirei said calmly.
It doesn't feel like dozens of lives are involved, but like today's weather is being discussed.
"I'm not asking this, I'm asking, why can you continue?"
Veins were pulsing in Shirou's forehead, and his nails dug into his palms with so much force.
"Why can't you continue?" Father Mapo asked expressionlessly.
"You will check there often to make sure that the spell on the coffin is running correctly... Why can you go into such a hell again and again? Why can you persist in such a cruel punishment for ten years!!
Turning a blind eye to the pain of the children and turning a deaf ear to their cries... Anyone who has a little conscience will not be able to persevere in the end, right? !
Even the most cold-blooded executioner would collapse if he had to kill people every day! "
The boy's eyes were red and he almost growled when he said this.
This gesture made Father Mapo stunned. He didn't know what he thought of. The corners of his mouth turned up, and then his smile gradually widened: "Hahahaha! Hahahaha..."
"Why are you laughing? Is this funny?" The young hero was so angry that he couldn't help but want to go up and tear his mouth open.
"Don't get me wrong, I just discovered that we are the same kind of people."
"The same kind of people?" Shirou was startled, then retorted, "That's impossible, I'm different from guys like you!"
"Nothing different."
A strange smile appeared on the corner of the priest's mouth, "Aren't you asking me how I can persevere? Then let me ask you, Emiya Shirou, why can you keep helping others for ten years without slacking off at all?"
"I……"
The young hero was startled, and then an incredible expression appeared on his face.
"Guessed it? Because this is your creed. This can make you satisfied, realize your self-worth, and alleviate survivor's guilt... so you can always stick to it."
Father Mapo had a bright smile on his face, but for some reason he looked very evil.
To the shocked boy, he added:
"And the same is true for me. For example, hearing the wails and pain of those children, and seeing bits and pieces of rotten and stinky bodies all over their bodies makes me feel very satisfied and happy...
Another example is the killing of a mentor, the tragic experiences and even deaths of relatives and friends..."
It seemed that he did not expect that the priest would say this. Such an evil soul and terrifying words made Emiya young hero stunned for a few times.
He was very angry, but at the same time he felt a little confused. He said almost instinctively: "Shut up! This is a crooked way. What creeds and principles are you talking about? Do you have the nerve to wear this priest's robe after doing such a thing?"
"Crooked ways, maybe, but apart from having different names, what is the essential difference between the so-called righteousness and evil?"
Kotomine Kirei shook his head, reached out to pick up the golden cross pendant on his chest, and kissed it.
His posture looked very pious, facing the rising sun in the east, with his strong arms spread out, and the shadow behind his tall body was very long, much like an invisible coat hanger.
“I have been thinking and thinking over the years, and every time I look at this colorful world, people’s love, hatred, joy and sorrow, I become more and more pious.
My Lord, how great is God! Only the supreme god can design everything in the world so wonderfully.
In fact, He doesn't care about good and evil at all, because this world has never treated kind people well, nor has it deliberately punished those evil people!
People have invented many interesting words and concepts, but the so-called justice, evil, cold-blooded selfishness, helping others, defending the home and country, invasion and plunder...
These, the two sides of human beings, the two sides of morality, are actually the same, they are all just feelings of self-stimulation! "
"You guys are crazy!"
Unable to accept this theory, Shirou looked at the devout priest like a madman.
"I'm mad?"
With a smile on her face, Kirei walked towards the boy step by step:
"The so-called good and evil are just an illusion.
Some children enjoy helping others, while others enjoy bullying others.
Some people love their work, while others are too lazy to do it.
Reading books to gain knowledge is a pleasure, being ignorant and lazy to think is also a pleasure.
It is happy to be in a romantic relationship with a girl, but not happy to have an affair with a friend's wife, or to have incest with a sister, mother or daughter?
Good and evil are just a game, an artificial concept.
Talent is the measure of everything!
We all understand the world in our own way, set moral standards for society, and form systems, laws, ideologies...
The police worked hard to handle the case in order to punish the criminals, and he was immersed in the sense of responsibility.
A soldier is not afraid of sacrifice in order to protect the country. He is immersed in the honor of sacrificing his life for the country.
The thief stole repeatedly, and he was immersed in the joy of getting something for nothing.
Some people like to have an affair with their sister-in-law. He is immersed in the taboo pleasure of breaking ethics.
Obeying moral laws and taking responsibility can be satisfying.
Breaking the law, committing crimes, and violating ethics can also be exciting.
Emiya Shirou likes to help others and gets satisfaction, while Kotomine Kirei gets pleasure from killing his relatives and friends.
Does it really make any difference?
People are just immersed in the concepts and environments set by people, and either abide by or break them to stimulate themselves.
Excluding stance, behavior and everything else are just appearances.
For example, help, rescue, hard work, or corruption, laziness, destruction, killing... There is actually no difference between these. To put it bluntly, it's just that everyone's enjoyment is different! "
These remarks of Father Mapo are naturally shocking.
"you you…"
Shirou pointed at the priest with trembling fingers. The boy's outlook was temporarily severely impacted, and he was so shocked that he could not speak.
Kirei walked towards him with a smile.
He seemed to have become the philosopher king at this moment,
He is free from vulgar taste and transcends good and evil, right and wrong,
His momentum completely overwhelmed the young man.
Wow──
The large priest's robe was discarded in the wind, making a hunting sound. At this time, Kotomine Kirei revealed the clean and neat black suit underneath.
And between his fingers, he quickly held a long and narrow sharp knife.
The Black Key is a semi-physical concept magic gift made of magic power. The blade is reflecting the cold light.
"Um……"
After kissing the golden cross on his chest, Kotomine Kirei grinned and let out a chuckle of unknown meaning.
The so-called murder kills the heart.
Even if the strength is equal, if the will is not strong, they may be defeated miserably in one encounter.
Whoosh~
The next second, the priest accelerated without any warning, and the slender black figure standing on the spot turned into an afterimage. He launched a preemptive attack on Shirou Emiya.
The slender sharp blade that resembled Wolverine was densely covered with red magic textures. It tore the air with a arrogant gesture and slashed towards the young man's neck!
This was a lightning speed that was almost beyond the scope of human beings. The black keys filled with cold light quickly magnified in front of Shirou's eyes...
