"Dad, where are we going now?" Li Baifeng asked cutely.
"Someone is looking for me right now, so I'm naturally going to meet him." Amen Li laughed.
"Who is it?" Li Baifeng said with a smile.
"An uncle you don't know, who says it's important, isn't really important to me." Amen Li laughed.
"Alright then, Dad, you'll go alone. I don't know people, I won't go to see them. Why don't you study the bugs you talked about, Dad. Li Baifeng said with a marker insect in his hand.
In fact, the existence of the Marking Worm in the hands of Li Amen is a normal thing, after all, it is necessary for research.
Getting one from Ryunosuke is simply a simple matter.
After Li Baifeng came to this world, he had already obtained the knowledge of the past that Li Amen had specially passed on, and he already knew what he should know, so one person could do everything well.
For Li Baifeng, who has entered the state of research, Li Amen is still relieved.
He immediately went out to meet the guy he was looking for on the way.
This guy will come to him, which is something he has guessed a long time ago.
It's strange if you don't look for it.
"You don't have to go any further, just talk here."
Emiya Kiritsugu, who is accustomed to walking on the trail, was stopped at a certain corner of the trail.
The other party is none other than Li Amen.
"Sure enough, it's you." Kiritsu sighed.
Li Amen smiled: "Of course it's me." β
Kiritsugu asked, "Is that thing you said earlier true?" β
Li Amen smiled: "There is no need to lie to you. If I want to, I can keep your lover alive. And the Holy Grail can still come. β
Kiritsugu was silent for a moment and said, "Are there any side effects from this?" β
"Actually, there are several options to choose from. β
"Oh?" Kiritsu was puzzled. There are actually several options.
Li Amen continued: "First, I directly take out the heart, which is the main body of the Holy Grail. Other alternatives are then used to maintain Alice Phil's presence. β
Alice Phil is a special existence, generally speaking, even if the heart is replaced, it is useless for her to ask for a normal heart.
For she is the shell of the Holy Grail, the Holy Grail vessel of the heart, and in fact the source of her activities.
This is the price to pay for abnormal life, and special life that can use magic.
Otherwise, if it was really that simple, I believe that Emiya Kiritsugu would not ignore the outcome that Alice Phil would encounter for the sake of the safety of the so-called Holy Grail.
But Li Amen really has a way. He had the perfect way to use other means to create a new energy source in place of that particular heart.
"What else?" Kiritsugu continued to ask.
"The easiest way is to have someone make a puppet and put Alice Phil's soul into it. β
It's a practical and effective tool, but Kiritsugu knows very well that it's really hard.
An ordinary puppet, if you want to carry Alice Phil, it's not easy at all.
After all, Alice Phil is a Holy Grail humanoid. In essence, it is already the strongest puppet technology.
Among the magicians in this world, only a very small number of them have the ability to create the same puppet, and only a puppet of that level is qualified to carry the soul of Alice Phil's abnormal life without risk.
Don't wait for Kiritsui to ask. Li Amen directly said the last option, he said: "In the end, it is my unique method." That's the Horcruxes. β
β¦β¦
For Qili, when he sensed that Shichen had the intention of forming an alliance with Einzbelen. He knew his situation was precarious. The decision made at the meeting just now was not unexpected. The women of Einzbelen β and the real manipulator behind them, Kiritsugu Emiya β have come to realize the threat they pose. And for Tosaka Tokitomi, he is just an "ordinary assistant". Therefore, the alliance with Einzberen is more important than his own.
As for the existence of the spell that Qili reappeared on his arm, and the existence of the custody spell that he secretly inherited from Lizheng, Shi Chen did not know. Nor did Kiri tell him that Saber's true master, Emiya Kiritsugu, had not yet appeared, and that Maki had been rescued by the night. At such a time, such important information was hidden, and this act itself meant that Qili had abandoned her duties as a subordinate of the minister. This will be seen through by Shi Chen one day, and now he is not qualified to complain about anything at all.
Qili returned to her room alone. He sat down on the edge of the bed and felt the silence of the church without people.
Staring into the darkness, Qili asked herself.
He has lived to this day, and he doesn't know how many thousands, tens of thousands of times.
Tonight, however, the question was really pressing him. Only this time, I had to come up with an answer before dawn.
- What is my wish?
Not completely unaware, but once again sure of the answer.
During the post-processing, there was a large amount of information from the staff, and there was one piece of information that Qili could not ignore.
This report is shocking.
Just a few hours ago, Kenneth was found in an abandoned factory on the outskirts of Xindu. Elumeroy. Aqipolud and Sora. Nazelle. Sophia's body. Both bodies were also found and disposed of by patrolling church staff. Abandoned signed self-coerced testimony was found at the scene, which is naked evidence that the perpetrator used underhanded tactics to kill Lancer's Master.
Emiya Kiritsugu, the ruthless hunting machine, is destroying his opponents one by one.
I'm afraid that now, he is still fighting somewhere. Unlike Qili, who could only sit in place in confusion, he was actually walking towards the Holy Grail.
This battlefield, called Fuyuki, brought back the man who had been engaged in the battle of emptiness after nine years of silence. But Qili didn't know what his intentions and reasons were. You have to get out of here.
What does the man pray for when he is given the Almighty Wish Machine?
This answer. Can it really fill the gap in Qili's heart?
ββ¦β¦ Who are you? β
He suddenly muttered to himself. He had looked forward to Emiya Kiritsugu with a premonition that was almost equivalent to a prayer. Looking forward to his answers. Now Qili has a sense of crisis. Going back and forth in my mind were the women who stood in front of Kiritsu. Why would they work so hard for Kiritsu? Or, has Kiritsugu degenerated to the point of being vulgar enough to share his purpose with a third party?
In the deep silence, Qili felt a commotion. The breath was approaching him from the hallway outside the door. This aura was already quite familiar to Qili. Even if he was just walking in silence, the heroic spirit did not hide the gorgeous majesty released from his body. Even when he stepped into the realm of God, he was still so unruly.
Archer didn't knock on the door and walked straight into Qili's room.
Compared with the confusion in the original plot, Qili, who now has a vague answer, does not wait for Archer's guidance and takes the initiative to speak his thoughts to him.
Unlike the original plot, he pretended to talk to Archer about his teacher for a while.
ββ¦β¦ Since being sensible. I've been searching for a question. β
As if speaking to the darkness in her heart, Qili stood in front of Archer.
"Wasting time and enduring pain...... But it all ended in vain. But now, I feel like I've never been so close to the 'answer'.
What I seek must be in Fuyuki, at the end of the war. β
After saying these words, Qili once again understood what had driven her to where she is today.
It was a long time ago, when Yan Feng Qili was not Tosaka Shichen's lackey. At that time, I kept stirring up disputes for my own sake.
"Why did you say it to me when you already understood it yourself?"
Archer asked coldly.
Hearing this, Qili looked down at her outstretched hands, and then covered her face as if she was about to sigh.
"I had a bad feeling - when I got the full answer. I will perish. β
The expectations pinned on Emiya Kiritsugu, if they fail to materialize-
And if you can't find something else from the end of the night-
At this time, Qili has no way out. You can only face it. He could only try to face something that he had discovered from the deaths of his father and wife.
It's better to just turn around and leave. Until the end, as a submissive disciple of Tosaka Toshitoki. Obedient departure. In this way, at least the scene is better.
From now on, forget everything. Ask nothing, don't want anything, and spend a life of inaction like grass and trees. Whatever is lost, doing so will at least give you rest.
Otherwise, things may really develop as Li Amen said, reaching the real abyss.
"βdon't think about those frivolous things, idiot."
Archer's reminder interrupted the idea he was almost ready to make.
"If you could change your way of life so easily, you wouldn't be bothered by this. If you are accustomed to asking questions while living, you will die with questions in the end. You won't get answers, and you won't be able to rest in peace. β
ββ¦β¦β
"Maybe I should bless you. After a long tour, we finally arrived at our destination. β
ββ¦β¦ How would you bless others? Archerγ β
Archer bowed, his face still devoid of any warmth, even a light of innocence and joy that sparkled like a child observing an anthill.
"As I said earlier, observing human karma is the most interesting entertainment. The king is looking forward to the moment when you will meet your destiny. β
The Hero King said arrogantly, and Qili smiled bitterly when he heard this.
"Is it really a pleasure to live for the sake of 'pleasure' in this way?"
"If you are envious, you can also try to live like this. When you understand what pleasure is, you will not be afraid of perdition. (A pie-in-the-sky event, cool phones are waiting for you!)
