Chapter 2: Emiya Kiritsugu

readx;? In the beginning, the man named 'Emiya Kiritsugu' was just a killer. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info kills people in order to save people, and gives up the few people for the sake of the majority.

I think I am more rational than anyone else, and I think I am stronger than anyone else. But even so, he finally felt tired one day, scarred.

"It's not going to go on like this. He was very frustrated when he realized this, but there was nothing he could do. Day after day, he repeats the same job: he is like the human immune system, reacting to the crisis.

But sooner or later, the limited ability will encounter a situation that cannot be solved, right?

Whether it's a Dead Apostle or a True Ancestor, a dangerous magic experiment or a scientific invention - there are endless problems that even Alayya can't solve, let alone just an ordinary human being.

What should I do then?

So one day, Emiya Kiritsugu locked himself in his room. A person begins to think - he wants to think beyond his own personal power and think about these questions from a broader perspective.

It was then that he received an invitation from Einzbergeren.

Holy Grail War.

The game with this name is a man's lifesaver: just because it has the premise of "being able to fulfill all wishes", so he is desperate and injects all his hopes into it.

Yes. It's not trust that comes from understanding, it's just a struggle at the end of the road.

It is the only answer that Emiya Kiritsugu can hand in when he faces his own powerlessness and the cruelty of the world.

"But that sounds stupid. ”

So, as a matter of course, it was ridiculed.

On the way to the city of Einzbellen, the traveling companion who had just met by chance laughed mercilessly. While munching on the curry, the girl, who seemed to be a nun but was wrong, laughed loudly at the immaturity of Emiya Kiritsugu.

"The goal is fantasy, the means are gambling, and the motivation is speculation. I said, uncle, you can't have a problem with your brain, right?"

"Why do you say that?"

"I don't know if the Holy Grail or anything is so powerful, but are you underestimating the world?"

"What?"

"Although humans are called primates, they are nothing more than indigenous to the earth. Even if existence itself is a miracle, it would be too cheap to think of a miracle on a par with the 'root' or something? ”

“……”

"If you want me to say, you're just too arrogant - it's good to have righteousness in your heart and want to save others. But if sacrificing a few is a necessity, you're just a bastard to do so. ”

“……”

"Well, that's all there is to say, let's figure out the rest. ”

Looking back on it now. What the girl said was not unreasonable, if she had thought more about it at that time, instead of rushing to the city of Einzbelen immediately, she might have other choices now.

But in the end it was too late.

never hesitated, but he also hated himself like this, and now he is Alice Fair's husband. Ilyasfil's father.

As the agent of the Fourth Holy Grail War, the Einzberen side, he had no choice.

"Kiritsu?"

“……”

"Kiritsu?"

“…… What's wrong Alice?"

"Ilya is looking for you. ”

“…… Yes, sorry. Slightly distracted. ”

He got up from his chair and smiled at his wife. The weapons of killing are now dulling - many years spent as a son-in-law in the city of Einzbelen, but the world has not changed.

I was worried every day before I came here, desperately trying to deal with a devastating disaster, but even without myself, the world was still running well.

It's kind of ironic.

"It's okay, it's Kiritsuro that you're working too hard. ”

Alice Phil smiled softly, and Kiritsugu laughed too.

Is there something wrong?

Kiritsugu went to find Ilya and began to think wildly.

He remembered his childhood experience and the person he could call his mother...... Were you influenced by those two experiences and embarked on an extreme path?

I don't know.

In his past life, Emiya Kiritsugu had no choice.

Whether it was the days when he fled with his father, or the days when he followed his 'mother' after his father's death. Emiya Kiritsugu's path was set from the beginning.

So it's useless to think "if it ...... then": it's impossible to repeat Emiya's life.

Therefore, only the Holy Grail is the salvation of Emiya Kiritsugu.

Only the Holy Grail can make Emiya Kiritsugu's life meaningful.

"It's embarrassing......"

With a wry smile, Kiritsugu put his hand in his pocket. He subconsciously tried to grope for something, but found nothing - he hadn't smoked in years, whether it was a cigarette case or a lighter, those things were long gone in his pocket.

Next time, shouldn't you ask Maiya to bring some over?

Kiritsugu shifted his attention as he walked forward.

……

……

"So, the lord of Einzberen is Emiya Kiritsu?"

Behind a cheap desk, a girl with long chestnut hair was spinning in circles—sitting in a chair of the same shoddy quality as the desk, and she was talking to people on her cell phone while kicking the floor, making the unreliable hinge mechanism make an unpleasant sound.

[Yes, the relevant information has been verified.] It will be sent to you by fax later. 】

"Thanks, what about the information of the other masters?"

[As before, apart from Tosaka and Marchi, the only person who can be confirmed is the director of the Clock Tower's séance, the guy named Kenneth.] 】

"The lemon head?"

【…… Well, that lemon head. 】

"I see, which means that there is no progress. ”

The girl's name is 'Atiel', and she is not so ordinary a member of the Human Sect.

Although, in her own words: she is just an ordinary female high school student. But the mere fact that she can use magic is enough to give her special treatment.

[That's a lot of demand...... But then again, it's too late to give up. 】

"Huh?

[Because I want to meet and go to the Holy Grail War, this kind of thing is too exaggerated.] I don't know what reason you used to persuade the Presbyterian Church, but do you really don't think about it anymore?]

But although he is a magician, he is actually only a half-ass. Not only is the number of magic circuits insufficient, but even their own properties are not clear.

Every time you use magic, it's like an adventure, even if so far it's been okay. But one day in the future, of course, this good fortune will come to an end, right?

But it doesn't matter.

Atil didn't care.

"That's it. ”
