After deciding on the next policy, Yan Feng Qili got up and left, returning to his room, and just as he opened the door of his room, he felt that he had entered the wrong room.

A figure who shouldn't have been here was sitting on his couch while drinking a fine wine from Yan Fengqili's collection.

“Archer？”

It was none other than Tosaka Tokitomi's Servant, the hero King Gilgamesh. What the Heroic Spirit was wearing was not his original golden armor, but a match with a modern feel.

"Although there are few of them, they are more advanced than Shi Chen's collection, and it is really unreasonable to be a disciple. ”

Instead of responding to Gilgamesh's sarcasm, Yan Feng Qili simply asked his own question: "What is the matter?"

Faced with Yan Feng Qili's inquiry. Archer just raised his glass and looked at Yan Feng with a meaningful gaze.

"It seems that there are many people who can't stand boredom, besides this king. ”

"Bored?"

Yan Feng Qili looked at Gilgamesh, he didn't understand what Gilgamesh meant.

"If that's not the case, how can you be wandering around outside as a Master protected by the Church?"

"Are you not satisfied with the contract until now? ”

Yan Fengqili didn't answer Archer's question, but asked rhetorically with a slightly unhappy look. Although the other party is the legendary hero king, there is nothing to be afraid of for Yan Feng Qili.

Regardless of what Shi Chen personally thinks, the Servant is the master's servant. Even if this Heroic Spirit is anyone, it is only as a Servant. Archer,It's just an existence that belongs to Tosaka Tokitoki.,Compared to himself as a direct disciple of Tosaka Tosaka.,Both are equal to each other.。 There is no need to worry too much about him.

Archer didn't care about Qili's attitude, but answered his question.

"The king must respond to the king's call to the king, to make the king appear in the world, and even to give his courtesy to the king. However, I didn't expect him to be such a boring man. ”

"Are you dissatisfied with the master's dispatch?" said Yan Feng Qili walked over and asked Gilgamesh who had said this.

"Hmph, what a boring attempt to reach the [Root Scourge]. ”

All the things that magicians dream of were brought by the hero king with a smile. But for Qili, it is understandable.

"The desire for the root is peculiar to magicians. It's not that outsiders can make irresponsible remarks. The process of reaching the Root, that is to say, transcending the outer side of the world, can only be understood as an attempt to be bored for us who are only interested in the inner side of the world. ”

"I see, it's true that I'm only interested in the universe that is my courtyard, and I don't have any interest in the realm that I can't control, so I don't care about the root at all. ”

As a hero king, Gilgamesh clearly expressed his lack of care about his roots, and as a hero king, he does have this capital, in mythology, Gilgamesh has made groundbreaking achievements.

"However, the Holy Grail is not just a specialized device that exists to explore the Root, the omnipotence of the Holy Grail is an infinite mysterious power that can be changed even on the Inner Side of the World. ”

Hearing this, Gilgamesh became a little interested: "Then the masters other than Shichen, they are all fighting for the Holy Grail for a different purpose from Shichen?"

In response to Gilgamesh's question, Yan Fengqili nodded.

"As a typical representative of magicians, Mr. Shichen is also the right-winged and sub-right-wing of magicians. What the rest of the guys are pursuing is just the glitz and glitz of the world, the interests of the [inside] of the world. Prestige, prestige, power..."

"Isn't that great? It's all something I love. Gilgamesh said with a smile as he sipped the wine.

"You are but the king of King's presence at the apex of these worldly things, Gilgamesh. ”

Gilgamesh was not angry at Yan Feng's disrespectful words, for he had discovered something that might please him: "Then what do you want? What wish do you want to fulfill with the Holy Grail?"

Asked like this, Qili hesitated for the first time from the beginning of the conversation.

"I ・・・・・・"

Yes, this is the biggest question, why is Yan Feng Qili's left hand engraved with a mantra?

"I don't have any particular wishes. ”

In response to Yan Fengqili's vague answer, the corners of Archer's mouth raised a slight arc.

"How is that possible. The Holy Grail responds only to those who are in need of it. ”

"That's true, but I don't know why. If I have no ideals and no long-cherished wishes, I will be chosen by this war. ”

"If you don't have ideals and no long-cherished wishes, wouldn't it be nice to just pursue pleasure?"

"! Pleasure seeking?"

Qili's angry voice was basically made unconsciously.

"Do you mean to let me be contaminated with these sinful depravities?"

"Sinful, depraved? You're thinking too fast. Why is pleasure associated with sin?"

"That's because ・・・・・・"

Yan Feng Qili didn't know how to answer Gilgamesh's rhetorical question, but Gilgamesh looked at the silent Yan Feng Qili, smiled, and continued his words: "Maybe the pleasure obtained through evil deeds is a crime, but there are also people who gain happiness by doing good deeds, and the pleasure itself is condemned as a sin, what kind of fallacy is this?" ”

"Pleasure doesn't exist in my heart, I've been looking for it, but I've never found it. ”

Finally, Yan Fengqili was able to answer, but the voice of the answer was not like his usual speech, but he seemed very unconfident. It's as if I can't find a suitable answer and can only find a random sentence to deal with.

"Yan Feng Qili, this king suddenly became interested in you. ”

"What do you mean?"

"Literally, well, sit down. While beckoning Yan Feng Qili to sit down, Gilgamesh poured red wine into his glass.

"The so-called pleasure, which can also be said to be the form of the soul, is not divided into nothing, the key is to know it or not, Qili, you have not yet seen the form of your soul. You think you don't have pleasure, and that's why. ”

"Does a Servant want to preach to me?"

"Don't be arrogant, bastard, this is the advice of the king who has enjoyed all the glory and riches of the world, just shut up and listen. ”

Although Yan Feng Qili said this, he had been carefully analyzing Archer's words in his heart.

The arrogant words spoken by this Servant of Tosaka Tosaka Shichen touched the nerves of Yan Feng Qili for some reason.

"Qili, you should learn about entertainment, first look at the outside world, by the way, then start with the pleasure of this king. ”

"I don't have time to waste on pleasure. ”

"I'm different from you. Yan Feng Qili thought so in his heart.

"Don't say that, this is something that can be done in addition to the work assigned by Shi Chen. After all, Qili, you have a mission to place spies around the other five masters, right?"

"That's right. ”

"It's not just the intentions and strategies of those people, you also investigate their motives and convey them to the king. ”

"It's possible to do what I tell the Assassin to do, but Archer, what are you listening to these things for?"

"Didn't you say that this king is interested in human behavior, and there should be one or two interesting guys in it, at least more interesting than Shi Chen. ”

"Well, Archer, I promise you. However, it will take a while. ”

"No problem, I'll wait while I look after the wine, I'm very patient. ”

Then, Gilgamesh turned into a golden spirit and left.

After Gilgamesh left, Yan Fengqili sat on the sofa, thinking about the question and answer he had just asked Gilgamesh.

"The reason for the pursuit of the Holy Grail, I really can say beautiful things, and it is not for pleasure. ”

The one who knows the real answer is not Archer, but someone else.
