Hundred Nights in the Light [Main Fate]

"Then, as a pre-agreed exchange. Let me tell you why Ryunosuke's first Command Seal failed..."

I bowed to Emiya Kiritsugu, and the moment when my bad taste was about to be satisfied made me physically and mentally happy——

I smiled and said, "Actually, it's not that I resisted the Command Seal, but that what the Command Seal ordered to do was an 'impossible' thing..."

Emiya Kiritsugu looked incomprehensible, maybe even thought I was talking nonsense.

"Stop joking." He put the muzzle of the gun against Ryunosuke's forehead, and said to me indifferently, "Even if it's something you can't do, the command spell will force you to try it!"

"That's why it's 'impossible'." I smiled and flapped the wings behind me, letting the wind gently brush the face of the man opposite me, "You seemed to be telling the truth before—— An unbelievable but absolutely true fact; then I will answer you with the same information, Emiya Kiritsugu.

"I am a Suzaku. Although I was summoned as a heroic spirit and given the duty to participate in the Holy Grail War and fight to the death with other servants, I am essentially...incapable of fighting. The essence of a Suzaku is 'do not kill, do not If you can't understand this, graceful creature of the wound', please take it as my vow (geis) to myself from birth not to kill another."

At this time, even the emotionless machine—Emiya Kiritsugu looked completely shocked.

Hahahaha this face is good entertainment.

"Then, what are you going to do, Emiya Kiritsugu?"

"..." Emiya Kiritsugu's face darkened, and after thinking about it for a moment, he made a judgment, "...Heroic spirits that lose their combat power are useless and should... be wiped out."

His finger was always on the trigger, steady and powerful, and the gun was aimed at my master Ryunosuke Uyuu.

If I lose this master, I don't know what will happen, so should I stop him?

Just as I retracted the wings behind me into my body, I suddenly heard Ryunosuke Yusheng say in horror: "No, no, don't kill me... don't kill me, don't kill me, it's all my fault, it's all my fault... ..."

"Hey—?" I couldn't restrain my surprise, "What's wrong with Ryunosuke? My great artist and thinker, where is your insight into death?"

But Ryunosuke couldn't hear me at all, he just shrank on the chair, trembling in front of the black muzzle of the gun... During this process, I saw some interesting wounds in his constant shaking.

"Ryunosuke..." I said with some regret and pity, "Did you get bullied in the prison? That kind of place where human nature is completely objectified and distorted, where the perpetrator gets everything and the bullied has nothing." , Has your talent been obliterated? This is such a pity..."

It's such a pity, is your philosophy so deep?Does your thinking about death still come down to being overwhelmed by despair?Ryunosuke...

I was talking here when suddenly a loud noise caught off guard interrupted my words.

--"boom"!

It was the gun that interrupted my conversation with Ryunosuke.

Emiya Kiritsugu, this cold killing machine, pulled the trigger without hesitation.

However, surprisingly, Ryunosuke's strong will to survive allowed him to dodge in an almost impossible state, and in the end the bullet just grazed his forehead.

But Emiya Kiritsugu raised his gun again without hesitation, and when he was about to fire another bullet——

I sighed, and within half a second, the spiritual tentacles that had been dormant for a long time through the conversation smoothly wrapped around Emiya Kiritsugu's ankle.

"I've let you down, Mr. Emiya. I don't intend to leave yet, at least not until I get Saber...not yet."

While pulling him into my mental world, I sighed with regret.

— Should I keep you or throw you away, Emiya Kiritsugu.

Like all people who entered this world for the first time, Emiya Kiritsugu was at a loss at first, but he covered it up very well, and immediately confirmed that he was still holding a weapon.

"How powerful are your weapons, really. Human beings have always depended on these things..." My tentacles spread from the dark corners, entangled easily on the gun|gun, and then dissolved it into nothing bubble of meaning.

Emiya Kiritsugu's icy face is very much like that kind of doll that was carved out... No, it should be said that it is a machine, he is a gun | weapon.

He kept taking out weapons from his battle suit, trying to contend with me, although it was fruitless, he didn't seem to waver in the slightest.

"Don't you understand? Emiya Kiritsugu, your most powerful weapon here is your soul. If your soul is only accumulated by gun|arms, you'd better die obediently..." I had a headache Sighing, he tried to coax him, "You bastard, don't you have anything else to rely on?"

To my surprise, at the same moment I said "things to rely on", a scale suddenly appeared in Emiya Kiritsugu's dark and chaotic thoughts.

In his will, this golden scale is bright and shining, representing all the truth and morality in the world.

"Oh, this is really interesting..." I couldn't help but get out of my laziness and laziness, and felt excited instead, "Eimiya Kiritsugu, what is your balance measuring?"

Emiya Kiritsugu stared at me quietly with his inorganic black eyes, I could feel the fierce battle in his heart, but in the end he still couldn't escape my spiritual coaxing——

He said unwillingly, "...it's life."

"Life"?It seemed that only when this word was said, Emiya Kiritsugu was a living person with signs of life.

"Hahahaha! Interesting! Come on, let me feel your balance more intuitively, Emiya Kiritsugu, let me see if your so-called 'for world peace' is true or not!"

First of all, I placed two people on both sides of Emiya Kiritsugu's balance: one is Ryunosuke Uyuu and the other is me.

"Which life would you choose? Which one would you choose to die?" I asked him very curiously.

If it were me, maybe I would choose "I".After all, his current situation is caused by my mental image world, if I die, he can get away as a matter of course...

Emiya Kiritsugu said, "Ryūnosuke Yusheng deserves to die."

With a cold gunshot, sticky blood flowed from one end of the scale, and Ryūnosuke Yusheng's body rolled down from it.

"Strange, by what criteria is this judged?" I asked.

Emiya Kiritsugu said coldly: "He is a serial killer, if he is alive, more people will die because of him..."

"So, even if you don't make a choice, even if he has nothing to do with you, you will kill him?"

"Yes."

Well, from this point of view, the principle of this man's balance is: the number of human lives takes precedence.

Feeling interested, I quickly started the second round of the game. This time, the left and right ends of the balance were placed respectively: one child and five children.

Emiya Kiritsugu killed a child without hesitation.

"What if... this child is the son of the savior?" I filled the empty image of the boy with malice, "What if his father saved the world, just like you wished?"

"Meaningless." Emiya Kiritsugu replied coldly, "Compared with life, these are meaningless."

He killed the Son of the Savior.

"Tsk tsk, cruel man..."

Sighing, I stretched out my tentacles to gently stroke the poor boy.

Then, I replaced the figure of the boy with a little girl; this time the other end of the scale was still five vaguely recognized children.

"What if the child on the left... is your daughter, Emiya Kiritsugu, is the answer to the '1vs5' multiple-choice question still the same this time?" I asked again.

Emiya Kiritsugu's hand holding the gun was still so steady.

But I know that he is struggling in pain, because the figure of this little girl is gradually clear because his memory is constantly evoked——

This is such a cute little girl, with the same long silver hair and red eyes as her mother, her palm-sized face tried hard to smile at Emiya Kiritsugu: "Kiritsugu! Where am I, what is this place, you Are you playing a game?"

"... Ah, this is just a game, Ilya." Emiya Kiritsugu finally spoke, his words were so gentle, his eyes also turned into kindness and melancholy, "Father assures you, it will be fine..."

"boom".

He pulled the trigger.

"...It's so cruel, Emiya Kiritsugu, can you attack even your own daughter?"

"...meaningless. Five lives are definitely better than one life. The judgment is not made by me."

It's not you... but this balance of absolute reason and absolute justice?

The answer this time also surprised me a bit. The machine-like man in front of me—Emiya Kiritsugu is probably one of the least human beings among the human beings.

"So, in your world——Emiya Kiritsugu, life can only be counted in terms of 'bars'? Except for life, everything else has no weight, including feelings, morality, justice, belief... all meaningless? "

Emiya Kiritsugu didn't answer, just lowered his hand holding the gun, his eyes carried the message I wanted: Of course.

On the dazzling balance, blood has already begun to overflow.

I smelled the smell of blood and the smell of death. This feeling was too strong, and it reminded me of one thing: "Your conception of blood is really three-dimensional and real, Emiya Kiritsugu, so it seems that you must have experienced it. There have been many killings...and in such killings, have you actually encountered the same situation?"

--You've got it.

The moment I said the last sentence, Emiya Kiritsugu's cold and inorganic eyes were obviously shaken.

His memories began to gradually appear in this empty space. This time, no matter how rigorous training he had undergone, he couldn't stop his own memories and thoughts...

Because it is obvious that after killing his daughter with his own hand, Emiya Kiritsugu, no matter how rational he is on the surface, his inner feelings are actually on the verge of collapse.

The author has something to say: This tone: Kiritsugu Papa is the most distressed in the entire fate series...so... please rest assured, even if you fight? No, I will not let Hei Tune play Kiritsugu Papa badly! ! !
