Chapter 220: An Impossible Wish
There is no way for Atalanta to collapse her faith, who made her make up Artemis's brain so beautifully.
However, the gods of ancient Greece, to be honest, basically did not have anything to do with Weiguang. In modern society, anyone who knows a little about Greek mythology has little affection for those gods who have no discipline and no lower limit.
A devout believer like Atalanta closes his ears and locks himself in his own world as an ostrich, well, a house cat, and takes the initiative to ask someone, and also asks someone like Keron in the know, what will happen to him.
But knowing that he knew it, seeing that his face was pale, and the beast's ears and tail were drooping, Shinji was still a little unbearable.
"Well, you're okay, I've told you before, don't think too much of the Olympian gods, you don't believe it. ”
"Tell Shinji Makiri, shut up for me. ”
Achilles complained about his eldest sister and looked like a loyal younger brother.
"Whose fault do you think it's all about, if you hadn't talked a lot, the eldest sister wouldn't have become like this. ”
"Uh, my fault?" Shinji turned to look at Fiore.
Fiore nodded, "Your bad." ”
Shinji turned to look at Artoria and Joan of Arc again.
The two also nodded, and the latter said, "Although it's not all, but you are at fault." ”
"Well, I was wrong, I apologize to you, Miss Atalanta, please cheer up. ”
"Don't apologize if you don't have sincerity. ”
Hearing Shinji's apology, Atalanta's dim eyes improved slightly.
"Forget it. After what happened last time, my spirit has been somewhat exercised. Affair...... Now, even if the goddess I believe in is like what you said, I will not give up on myself because of this. I will definitely take back the Great Holy Grail, stop Shiro Amakusa from being sada, and create a world where all children are happy!"
Achilles hurriedly echoed: "Well said, eldest sister, I'll help you." ”
However, at this time, Shinji came out again:
"Well, it's a bit out of place, but I have to interrupt you. ”
"What's wrong again?" Achilles didn't look good.
"The essence of the Great Holy Grail is the vast magic that has been accumulated for 60 years and the magic centered on the materialization of the soul, and apart from the pre-constructed passage to the root, the other wish-making mechanisms are based on these two points. ”
"So what?"
"This IQ and understanding. Shinji pressed his temple, "Are you really the most proud disciple of Teacher Charon?"
"Clams, are you trying to fight?"
The hot-tempered Achilles blew up at that time, but fortunately there was Charon to stop him.
"Alright, Achilles. I understand what Shinji means, but you're trying to say that this wishing machine doesn't actually have intelligence, and only functions in the direction that the wisher directs, right?"
"It's worthy of Teacher Charon, that's what it means. From what I've learned of the Great Grail, it's actually a shortened device, and whenever the wisher proposes a plan, it will use the power of magic to execute it, and the result will be in an extreme amount of time. On the other hand, if the wisher does not have a way to reach the wish, it will not be fulfilled. Take, for example, Fiore's wish to restore the normal function of the legs without losing the magic circuit. There are many ways to get to this result, such as the surgical plan I proposed, such as replacing your legs with a normal new pair of legs, or directly changing the function of your legs, so that the magic circuit and the physical function are separated, which is possible, depending on which one you prefer. And Miss Atalanta, your wish is indeed great and admirable, but unfortunately I cannot think of a way to this outcome. ”
"Just because you can't think of it doesn't mean that others can't think of it, teacher, you must have a way. ”
Achilles began to ask Charon again in trouble, but this time, he did not get the desired response.
"I can't help it - I see, after all, it's just an almighty wishing machine, not omnipotent, it's really a cruel reality. ”
Hearing Charon's answer, Atalanta sat down on the ground as if she had lost all her strength. First, Artemis's image of the great and righteous collapsed, and then she was told that the Holy Grail could not fulfill her wishes. In just a few minutes, the two pillars that supported her collapsed with a bang, and the blow was worse than Shinji's loss of Yustisa.
Achilles panicked: "Eldest sister, eldest sister, it's okay, even if that guy can't think of it, the teacher can't think of it, and he can't be discouraged, maybe there are other ways." ”
It's just that he didn't believe it in this insincere comfort, let alone Atalanta, and in desperation, he had to turn his gaze back to Shinji again.
"You made the eldest sister look like this, you want to find a way to solve it, but if you can't solve it, you will die. ”
"It's me again, okay, it's me, it's me. ”
Shinji didn't shirk either. Tell Tameow the real moon god that it is a whim to make her faith collapse. But in terms of wishes, it is deliberate.
"It's uncomfortable, isn't it? ”
"T-understand?"
Shinji crouched down and looked at Atalanta.
"Yes, like you, I've watched all my plans fall through and lose the most important person. It's a terrible feeling, an unbalanced mentality, self-blame and remorse, even thinking about how the world is not destroyed, and Artoria and Joan of Arc are angry at coming to see me, it's really hard to see, no, you won't become like me. ”
"Don't underestimate me, Assassin!" Atalanta's eyes cleared, "Just because I'm just having trouble accepting it doesn't mean I'm going to escape from reality." ”
"And what are you going to do?"
"Keep searching until the day you find a way. ”
"A hero deserves to be a hero!"
Shinji sighed from the bottom of his heart. After the Great Holy Grail was taken away, his mentality has always been problematic, especially after Shirou revealed his identity as a traverser, and the whole person seemed to be sleepwalking. If it weren't for Yustisa's true confession, he might have been trapped in it and would never have been able to get out. Atalanta, on the other hand, quickly adjusted her mentality and found the direction of her efforts.
At this moment, Shinji deeply realized the gap between himself and the hero, not about force, not about ability, just about mentality, or the amount and style that is often talked about by the hero king Gilgamesh.
"In that case, do you want to listen to my opinion as a modern man?"
"Well, you say. ”
"It's very simple, start from scratch, start at hand. If you can't bring smiles to the children of the whole world, start with one child and save one by one. Open an orphanage to adopt orphans, set up a foundation to help poor children who can't afford to go to school, or something, depending on what you think. ”
This opinion can be said to play right into Atalanta's heart, and she involuntarily pressed Shinji's shoulder, her eyes shining.
"Is what you say true?"
Of course, this is something that every modern person knows, and the key depends on whether you want to do it or not, and whether you have the ability to do it. ”
"How?"
"I don't have any experience in this area, and I don't have any roots in this world, so I don't know. It doesn't matter, though, I don't know, someone knows. ”
"Who?"
"You, my Master, Fiore. ”
"Master, do you know?"
Atalanta jumped to her feet like a big cat.
The corners of Fiore's mouth, who was stared at by her, twitched, why did it suddenly pull on me?
