Two footsteps echoed in the empty building www.biquge.info the pen & fun & pavilion, Xia Er took the lead, Qili was one step behind, the footsteps were not hurried but not slow, just walking down step by step

Walking half the floor, Charles's voice rang out: "Qili, why did you participate in the Holy Grail War?"

"Of course it's because the Holy Grail chose me", Qili was quite expecting Charles's verbal attack on him, because Qili didn't know what he needed right now, and he hoped that Charles's language would bring him something different

"Do you say that because of the spell?"

"Yes, three years ago in Italy I suddenly had a spell on my hand, so I think it was the Holy Grail that chose me"

Qili saw Charles in front of him and nodded when he heard his words, but the words he said were not in agreement, "You have a wrong understanding of the Holy Grail, the Holy Grail will not choose anyone, or the Holy Grail will not choose anyone who does not have a need for the Holy Grail"

"Do you mean that I need the Holy Grail myself to be chosen by the Holy Grail?", Qili said with a frown

"That's right, that's it, that is, you have your own wishes, so the Holy Grail will respond to you again"

"It can't be", replied quickly and firmly: "I have no desire, let alone a grail"

"No, no, no, you have, let me put it this way, the Holy Grail is just a mana storage system and a screening system, it has no initiative in itself, it can only passively accept the craving and then feed it out"

Qili's pace slowed down significantly, and Qili carefully recalled everything about herself, but still didn't find any thirst for the Holy Grail: "Maybe there is something wrong with the Holy Grail, after all, it's polluted, isn't it?"

Charles shook his head and said, "No, the most fundamental mechanism of the Holy Grail will not change in any state, so let me tell you the three rules of the Servant, you can take a seat and explain why you summoned the Assassin yourself."

"The first type is a servant who has a similar desire to the master, the second is a servant with a similar personality, and the third is a servant who has a certain relationship in cause and effect, which one are you?"

"I'm...", Qili said directly, "The second one, probably, the first one is also very likely, this type of need is not single, so the first and the second, I have no ego like the Assassin, as for the wishes, I don't know my wishes, I don't know the Assassins' wishes, and I don't have any wishes, is it similar to have no wishes? But does this have anything to do with me being chosen by the Holy Grail?"

Charles turned back and shrugged his shoulders at Qili: "Well, you're right, and you also asked the point, the answer is that it doesn't matter, okay, the topic is back to why you were chosen, Qili, after reading your information, I found that you are an out-and-out genius."

"Genius or something, I'm just more focused on what I'm looking for than others, and I don't pay much attention to things other than my goals, so I'm not a genius."

"Well, you have the final say, but you can really be called a genius in terms of results, such as the speed at which you graduated early and you learned magic, and of course the speed at which you and your father learned Bajiquan, but in these things you mentioned a very interesting statement, you said that you pay very little attention to things other than the goal, how small?"

Qili's voice did not fluctuate: "I don't care at all"

"It's a terrible ability.,Don't care about anything other than the goal.,Compared to the so-called serious attitude that many people say.,Yours is a little sick.,You.... There's no sense of entertainment at all."

Qili had a disgusted expression on her face: "Entertainment!?That is the embodiment of the depravity of ordinary people, and I will never seek it."

Charles 'suddenly realized' and said, "Is that so, really?"

Qili nodded firmly, "Really!"

"Don't you have anything that makes you happy? I mean any."

"I..." Qili wanted to say no, but he didn't want to lie to Charles, Qili stopped and lowered his head to think seriously, Charles also stopped and waited for Qili's movements, and after a while Qili looked up at Charles: "I have something that makes me happy"

Charles asked 'curiously', "What is it?"

Qili swallowed back with a movement in her throat, and after a few seconds, she finally made up her mind and said, "It's the pain, it's the pain and pain of others that makes me feel excited, hehe, sure enough, I'm a hopeless bastard."

"Huh?", Charles just said in surprise and then began to walk down again, Qili silently followed, Charles said: "It's not such a strange thing to take pleasure in other people's suffering, is it?

Qili shook her head: "I think he doesn't just feel happy because of the torture, he will be funny and happy for other things, but I will only be excited about the pain, and nothing else"

"I see, that's why you're so resistant to entertainment, so Qili, in your own opinion, from the perspective of ordinary people, are you that kind of monster who is very perverted?"

Even beings like Qili would feel a little lost in admitting this, and Qili muffled, "Of course, I'm the most disgusting kind of person in terms of personality, scum, monster, and the most vicious bastard."

"Oh~~ That's how you see yourself, okay, then I'll ask you from another angle, in your own opinion, what kind of person are you from the perspective of ordinary people in everything you have done in the past twenty-seven years?

"Of course it's bad...", Qili said badly with great certainty, but at the moment when the bad word came out, Qili paused, Qili recalled the past 20 years since he remembered, he was sent to school to study when he was a teenager, never caused trouble, graduated early with excellent grades, practiced Bajiquan with his father, learned magic, became a substitute to kill disciples and heretical magicians, and from the perspective of ordinary people, he has not done a single wrong thing in his life so far

Qili's downward pace is getting slower and slower, and one of them accidentally stepped on the spot and made Qili almost fall down the stairs, which can also see how seriously he is thinking, but how skilled Qili is, how can he fall, after standing still, Qili looked at Xia Er seriously, a little helpless, a little puzzled, and more of a more unclear feeling: "I... am a good person?"

Charles was amused by Qili's expression, and sneered: "Haha, you guy is so strange, isn't it, is it so difficult to admit that you are a good person?

"What is a good guy card?"

"It's a very hurtful kind of card, okay, our problem isn't on that, okay, what do you think of your years as a good person?"

Qili stood there and thought for a moment before saying, "I have always followed my father's teachings and my own beliefs, I don't think that I am really doing good deeds, just doing what others need me to do, and responding to those people's expectations of me."

Charles walked forward again, the floor was running out, and the conversation between the two was about to end, Charles asked, "Then why do you suddenly not want to live like this? What is it that makes you dissatisfied with your previous life and seek the Holy Grail, or rather make you confused between right and nature"

Qili shook her head: "I don't know, I admit that what you said is right, I am indeed confused between right and nature, and I don't know which one to choose, but what does this have to do with my thirst for the Holy Grail?"

Charles smiled and clutched his stomach: "Haha, you don't know what it matters, hey, don't you know how paranoid you are? You yourself have said that you will never care about anything outside of the goal, you don't know how entangled you are with this problem before you have no choice?

Qili's heart has collapsed, his mind is in chaos, according to Charles's reasoning, the reason why he longs for the Holy Grail is only because he has no way to decide whether to continue to fight evil and be a good person or whether he should turn to his nature and be a bad person, such a simple question is because his specificity finally becomes a desire for an objective and absolutely fair existence to help him choose, so the Holy Grail accepts his request

"I... How, how is it possible, because, boring, this kind of thing...", Qili said incoherently, "Is it because of such a meaningless multiple-choice question, that the Holy Grail chose me?

Charles mended on the side: "Well, just in terms of the change after the wish is fulfilled, this one of yours can be said to be the most ridiculous one, and the most important thing is that the Holy Grail can't perfectly fulfill your wish for you."

Qili looked at Charles in shock: "What do you mean?"

Charles spread his hands helplessly: "The current Holy Grail is the Holy Grail after pollution, your wishes will definitely be distorted by the Holy Grail, and in the end, as long as you win, you will be dominated by instinct"

"And what about the untainted Holy Grail?", Qili only asked with a faint hope, and he could deduce the result himself

Sure enough, Charles's answer was no different from what Qili thought of herself: "Of course it's your current lifestyle, after all, the Holy Grail has no thoughts, and it's really funny that you rely on the Holy Grail to choose your future."

Qili leaned on the handrail of the stairs because of the huge mental impact, he felt that his whole body had lost strength, from being told by Charles that it was impossible for the Holy Grail to take the initiative to choose the master, to following Charles to understand his ridiculous wishes, and now his wishes have been ruthlessly shattered, although Qili has never known what his pursuit is, but the speed from discovering his pursuit to the shattering of his dream is too fast, even an existence like Qili is difficult to accept

Qili heard Charles's voice in a trance, "Hey, aren't you, have you had such a big blow?" I always thought you didn't care about anything, do you want to listen to a suggestion?"

"Please say", Qili felt that her voice was not made by herself, how could she be so weak

"So, don't you think your profession and your nature complement each other well?"

Qili heard Charles's words have a little flash in her mind, but she couldn't catch it anyway, so she said very excitedly, "Please tell me, please"

"OKOK, let's keep walking", Charles said and walked down, but Qili looked at the remaining floors, and suddenly realized that he didn't want to walk out of this building, he still wanted to know more, and he didn't want to continue to be so confused, but Charles had already walked down, and Qili could only hurry up to follow

Charles said as he walked, "Look, you're a priest, no, isn't it, isn't it, whatever, your profession seems to be listening to other people's prayers or something?

"Repentance"

"Yes, yes, that's it, don't you feel happy to listen to other people's confessions? It's all sin, misfortune, or something," Charles said in a gloating-sounding way, but it sounded like heaven to Qili's ears

"I... I haven't tried yet, I'm not a priest yet," Qili's voice trembled with excitement

Charles nodded after listening to Qili's words and continued: "You can take over the priest's job from your father, after all, Old Man Yanfeng is not young, and ah, aren't you a substitute, there will always be many victims when you eliminate those Dead Apostles and heretical magicians, right? There are survivors or something, go and see them, what a tragic fate, you are just too obsessed with the goal and ignore other talents..."

Before Charles could finish speaking, he heard a "bang" behind him, and when he looked back, Qili actually knelt down on the aisle of the stairs he had just walked through: "Charsa, are you sent by the Lord to save me, a sinner?"

Charles pouted his hands with a look of disgust: "I don't believe in your Lord"

Qili's face was full of reverence: "But you have guided me and made me believe in my Lord even more, Amen!", Qili stood up after speaking, and bowed ninety degrees to Charles very earnestly

"Mmmm, you firmly believe in your lord", Charles said and walked out, it turned out that the two of them had reached the bottom, and Qili respectfully followed Charles and walked out

Qili looked up at the natural moon with Charles's appearance, and heard Charles say, "Qili, do you think you are human?"

"Uhh

Xia Er was not surprised to hear Qili's words, and said directly without looking at him: "Hello in another way, your father Yan Feng Lizheng, if he is killed by someone in front of you, will you be sad?"

Qili thought for a moment, then shook her head: "I'm really not human, I'm not sad at all"

Charles continued: "Well, you have a daughter, she's a very cute girl, she's only six years old, she's the same kind of constitution as your wife, if no one finds her to protect her, it's estimated that she will be discovered by the church soon, and then... What will happen to that masochistic psychic, don't I need to say more?

Qili thought about it for a while, this time for a little longer, as if she wanted to think about how to deal with the situation that she had a daughter, and then said seriously and with a little excitement: "I really am not a human being, it seems to be more like a beast, no, it is not as good as a beast, my own daughter has been violated and abused, and I, as a father, am not sad, but excited!"

Charles nodded: "Last question, the woman named Claudia Aldesia is not dead, I know where she is", Charles said and slowly walked outside

Qili suddenly felt that he had lost all his strength and knelt on the ground, his whole body trembled strangely like a spasm, he felt something on his face, stretched out his hand and touched it, a few water marks clearly appeared on his hand, Qili muttered incredibly: "How is it possible!? Is this... tears? I... can actually shed tears!"

He heard Charles's voice not far away, "Hmph! Sure enough, you're still a human, Yanfeng Qili!"
