Chapter 327: The Price of Exercising Justice
At the beginning of the episode on Saturday, Kiritsugu is lying on a hospital bed covered in bandages, the dim light shining on the cold surgical equipment, and the woman with short white hair in the previous episode explains everything to the audience.
It turns out that the name Emiya Kiritsugu has a lot of origins. His origin attribute is "severing" and "combining", and after cutting, it is connected again, a kind of effect equivalent to a surgical ligation wound, which will swell the severed part when attacked, as for the effect, as early as the beginning of the anime, when Kiritsugu and Kenneth were fighting, the audience knew it - destroying the magic circuit.
The woman opened a box, which was neatly stacked with three rows of 66 origin bullets, which were made of powder ground from Kiritsugu's ribs, and the attack effect was the embodiment of the origin.
"Well, it's cruel!"
"Yes! But it's also cool, isn't it? ”
Wang Gang touched his ribs and smiled bitterly: "Maybe it's okay." ”
It can be seen from the plot after that that Kiritsugu and the short-haired white woman formed a team, the two became mercenaries, and they have been hunting some people, and the audience is very confident in Kiritsugu, just by virtue of his righteous act of killing relatives, what he killed must be a wicked person, plus the man in the animation is full of meat, he is not a good person at first glance, and the audience appreciates him even more.
After foreplay, the next plot introduces the plot of Kokitsugu and Natalia after they escape from that island. At first, he was haunted by that nightmare, but when he woke up and saw Natalia, he unconsciously settled down. This woman's name is Natalia, a hunter who does not belong to any organization, only for reward operations, and wanders between the two organizations, active as a free man. Under her careful teaching, Kiritsugu secretly resolved to follow the same path as the woman who adopted him.
Tragedies like the tragedy of Alimago Island have occurred from time to time in rivers, lakes and seas around the world, among famous mountains and rivers, among the townspeople, and at this stage, he is also like a walking corpse, killing people for no reason, following in the footsteps of Natalia, and embarking on the path of a free hunter.
In order to prevent more victims from appearing in the world, but because of his own life, he sat back and watched others die, even if he took revenge in the end, but death is death, his grief or regret, Natalia, who is used to seeing life and death, laughed at him for being a messenger of justice, laughing at his wishes that cannot be changed by himself alone, unless he kills all the people in the world, otherwise the struggle will always exist.
Struggle, regardless of species, race, or background of the times, as long as there is desire, there is a struggle between organisms with vital signs. Food, space, future...... It is natural to have a struggle for all desires and needs, and it cannot be stopped by individual strength alone.
Seeing this, the audience finally understands why Kiritsugu is chasing the power of the Holy Grail so much! If you can't do it with manpower, you can use the miracle maker of the Holy Grail to change the world by triggering this miracle......
The fast-moving plot suddenly slows down when Natalia receives the crusade against magician Odd Polzak, and it is clear to everyone that the feature film is coming.
In the previous episode, it was said that magicians are a group of guys who go after their roots. As ordinary humans, the lifespan is only a short hundred years, which is not enough for magicians to step into the roots, so these orthodox magicians will start to devote themselves to studying the path of immortality at the end of their life or middle and old age, and transforming into a Dead Apostle is currently the easiest way to go.
Many viewers don't approve of the Dead Apostle at all, how can that kind of zombie, a creature without reason and no brains, have a magician who wants to be like that. However, sitting in front of the TV, there are still a small number of people who have played "Tsukihime", the name Dead Apostle, they can't be more familiar. The Dead Apostles are divided into twenty-seven ancestors, and those are the undead who have retained their intelligence and strength, and I think that the magicians should be looking for that form.
The damage caused by Odd Polzak was very large, there was only one town, which reminded Kiritsugu of that island, just one island has so many people killed, and one town is afraid that tens of thousands of people, after learning about the demon bee he researched, Kiritsugu rose to the heart of killing.
This time, because the opponent is too tricky, Natalia does not agree to follow Kiritsugu, and the two soldiers split into two ways, and she goes alone to deal with the magician who once escaped from her; Kiritsugu went to New York to kill his companion and prepared to take Polzak's body at the airport.
In the tense BGM, Kiritsugu killed all of Polzac's companions, and Natalia also completed the commission, but just as the two celebrated their victory, Polzac's ceremonial demon bee was not killed, and some of it was hidden in his body, and with his death, the uncontrolled demon bee turned the entire plane into a dead apostle.
When Natalia says that she took control of the plane and made it to the cockpit of the plane, laughing about her experience in flying small planes, Kiritsugu on the screen is visibly unhappy, and the audience has a bad premonition.
To be honest, Wang Gang didn't understand what this episode was talking about when he saw it now, he just felt that the atmosphere of this episode was a little heavy, but Li Lin next to him no longer smiled, so he asked strangely: "What's wrong with you, both of you survived, aren't you happy?" ”
Li Lin looked at Wang Gang and smiled bitterly: "If they all survive, they won't be described as bad news." ”
Looking at Wang Gang, who still looked ignorant, Li Lin explained: "For free mercenaries, preserving life is the first element, so it is good news that she survived, since she said that there is bad news, then there are only two situations, the first is that she is one of these 300 people, and the second is ...... Kill me! ”
When Wang Gang heard this, his eyes widened angrily, and he grabbed Li Lin's collar, "You explain it to me clearly!" ”
"Read on, won't you?" Gently breaking away Wang Gang's hand, Li Lin said softly: "I really hope that I can't see anything clearly like you, and I can't understand ......."
Next, Natalia told about the Kiritsugu in her eyes, and her apologies to Kiritsugu, believing that it was her appearance that deprived Kiritsugu of the right to share his family with his father, and after adopting Kiritsugu, she led Kiritsugu astray, making an ordinary child a killer, she was an incompetent "mother".
Kiritsugu took out his stinger, and he aimed at the plane - "You are my mother, my family!" ”
"......" When he saw Kiritsugu take out a stinger and aim at the plane, Wang Gang stood up excitedly, but Li Lin, who was usually babbling, sat there uncharacteristically, and said expressionlessly: "Do you know how many people will die after the plane lands, those demon bees will cause deaths?" Do you know why Natalia laughs when she feels the plane explode? Do you know why Kiritsugu mentioned Xia Lei? ”
There were three questions in a row, and Wang Gang didn't know how to answer them at all, because Cheji was not wrong. He sacrificed his small to protect his big and saved countless people, but this behavior sacrificed his father who gave birth to him and raised his mother......
"See, Xia Lei, this time I killed again, like my father did again, I didn't fail to do it like I did at the beginning, I saved a lot of people......"
In Kiritsugu's character song, in his cry, in his strength, justice lies in this episode...... It's over.
"The serenity is fleeting, the sky where the stars are gone
Heaven and earth are full of undeliverable prayers......"
