[comprehensive] dear king

"Ah, this looks really unreliable. I don't want to be someone who is being hunted down at all. There are clear camps outside, and everyone wants to get it. People who are in the first dangerous state are here to eat fried noodles." Wearing The little girl in a dress that is too strange for ordinary people puts her face away and takes away the magic telescope in front of her, "Ah, it's not because you didn't bring 'that princess' back." She raised her head, Because it is a girly figure, it is very cute, even if it complains and scolds, it is very cute.

"...Well... how should I put it, this is indeed my failure." The accused servant spread his hands, "But it is a bit difficult for me to deal with 'that'."

The girl sighed, and couldn't help complaining, "What! That tsundere Kim Pika, who doesn't talk too much, promised not to protect the 'princess', but came here faster than anyone else when something happened. She jumped down from where she was sitting, "Forget it, let's go see her, I just have something to ask her."

The girl fixed her eyes on the direction of the house. Kaori didn't eat much, but it was obvious that the two men had good appetites, especially...

"Well, what's wrong? Looking at me like this? Is my face covered in sauce?" Arthur touched his face.

Kaori shook her head desperately.

...I can't say... I was frightened by your appetite, right?

Gilgamesh on the other side poured himself a glass of red wine after finishing his meal. He somehow smelled of a strange upstart in his normal clothes, and he didn't mean taste or anything, just... um... a leopard print suit... um... Kaori felt that it was better not to talk about his clothing taste, so that he would suddenly jump like a thunder.

In other words, the motorcycle suit actually suits him quite well.

He ate the dinner made by Kaori in his place because of the reason of "how can the common people have the right to have dinner with the king", but to be honest, it gave Kaori a feeling of "this person seems to be a cat who doesn't fit in "It's the same feeling, if it wasn't because he was too cruel, Kaori would almost go up and stroke his fur.

"Hmph, it's alright, for the sake of my culinary skills, I allow you to speak." Gilgamesh put his hands on his face and looked at Kaori sideways, but Arthur had already started to clear the table. Kaori had no choice but to stand up, "Well, Mr. Saber, let me do it."

"No, let me do something more or less." He looked at Kaori's finger with the Band-Aid on it, "You can't let Her Highness be so tired, can you?"

"... Tsk." The ignored Wang closed his eyes, showing an impatient expression.

However, there was no chance to take the tableware to the kitchen to wash, Saber frowned first, the wind pressure surged all over her body, when the wind pressure dissipated, the casual clothes had long been changed into armor, and he blocked Kaori behind , the sword with his real name hidden in his hand was facing the door, but Gilgamesh did not make any big moves, he just looked at the door and said sarcastically, "Why, you have already been exposed and you still want to pretend to be mysterious in front of the king? Rats?"

Probably only Kaori was confused about the situation. She looked blankly at the two servants, but the door was opened from the outside. There was a girl in a cute retro dress standing at the door. Behind her... followed by the green-haired archer.

The girl raised the corner of her skirt and reported her family name, "Ilyasphil von Einzbern, first time meeting, Your Royal Highness." The little lady named Ilya showed a sly smile, "' Your Highness Xing Ji."

"?" Kaori had no idea about this title, and could only show a dazed expression.

"Aren't you going to invite guests in?" Ilya smiled like an angel, "Big sister?"

Kaori glanced at Gilgamesh and began to close his eyes to meditate again. He took a deep breath, "Please come in."

The other party didn't seem to be afraid of strangers, so he walked in with a stride, found a place to sit down by himself, "I've heard my grandfather say 'His Royal Highness Xingji' a long time ago, but I didn't expect to see a lovely sister."

David on one side has goosebumps all over his body. Is this little devil acting cute again?

"Well, my name is Kaori..." What does 'Star Princess' mean?

"Yeah... that's right," Ilya nodded, "'Star Princess' is what we call ourselves." She looked at Kaori with a cute expression, "Who got the name 'Xingori'? ?”

"Eh? Why did you ask this all of a sudden?" Kaori froze for a moment, "... If you want to say it, this name was given to me by the person who woke me up." She lowered her head and clenched her hand, then pulled it away. It was the first time she saw this child, but she was already sure that she was looking for her.

The fact that she is the Holy Grail of God's wish is no longer a secret that can be hidden. The girl smiled and looked at the little girl in front of her, waiting for her answer.

Really, why do you have to look at yourself with such mother-like eyes and smiles.Ilya couldn't help but spit in her heart, "I'm here to make a deal with you." She smiled, "You tell me what I want to know, and then I'll give you the information I have. How about it, it's fair, isn't it?"

The corners of Gilgamesh's mouth curled up slightly.

It sounds fair, but the premise is how many valuable things the other party has, and what she wants to get in exchange. It is impossible for anyone to easily agree to this question.

"Okay, if you want to know something, I will answer you if I can." Kaori tilted her head and smiled, and the promise was... so unbelievably straightforward.

Gilgamesh, who was sitting on the throne, tried his best not to choke on the red wine.

...Stupid and sweet? You idiot!idiot!Brainless chipmunks!

The other party also seemed to be planning to gossip for a long time, but Kaori's expression was too sincere, and her promise was too straightforward. Instead, Ilya didn't know what to say, so she said after a while, "Really? Tell me everything about it?" She even suspected that there was fraud in it.

"What Ilya wants to know the most is not about me, right?" Kaori said with a gentle smile, "It's about other things."

Intrigued, Ilya stared fixedly at the girl in front of her, who just looked at her friendly and sincerely, "You are actually very similar to that person, so the first thing I saw when I saw you was whether there was something wrong with you." It's possible."

"..." Ilya pursed her lips, but quickly regained her momentum, "Then I'm going to ask you! What happened to Kiritsugu in the end?"

She knew that Kiritsugu was no longer alive, but at the end of the day, she still wanted to know, this traitor who betrayed Einzbern, the man who should have been her own hands—her father, what happened to him in the end? how is it.

"Kiritsugu..." Kaori lowered her head, "I'm sorry, I killed him." She didn't use such gentle words as "took his life", but naturally admitted that Kiritsugu's death was the same as killing him It's no different.

Arthur turned his head sharply to look at her.

Elijah's eyes widened too.

"At that time I was in a deep sleep, and no one could wake me up." Kaori put her hands where her heart was, "I was poached of something very important, and the functions of my whole body stopped, but I don't know why, He appeared in front of me, he never wanted to use me, he just wanted me to wake up as if he was looking for something."

"I don't know what this feeling is, I just feel that if I don't respond to him, he will die in despair like this." Kaori stood up, "I'm sorry, he woke me up," woke up Bi Fashion is not Kaori Kirie, but the Holy Grail herself, "And if I want to live as a human being, the important part that was taken away needs to be replaced by something else." She put her hand on the heart, "What is dancing here belongs to that person's life. This is my sin, and I won't run away anymore." After thinking about the past, she will never run away again.

"..." Ilya fell silent, and after a while, he opened his mouth as if holding back something, "No, no, that's fine, anyway, he will die in my hands anyway, so that's okay. Not bad—if you really are the 'Holy Grail of Salvation' that man is hoping for."

Having got what she wanted to know, Ilya raised her head, "Hundreds of years ago, the Hohenzollern family, which founded the current Holy Grail with Einzbern, once hoped to borrow Einzbern's 'third I can't copy a girl, but when the head of the family at that time came to their basement, they found a fact that made them feel unbelievable." She stood up and stared at Kaori's face.

"The structure of the sleeping 'Xing Ji' is too delicate, every inch of skin, every drop of blood is concentrated with a high concentration of magic power, as if the power of an entire planet has been condensed on her body—but with such a delicate structure , the princess who contains such a powerful magical power is just a shell."

"The girl who was named 'Xing Ji' by Yusanjia lacks the most important part of being a 'human being'."

A wry smile appeared on Kaori's face.

"Holy Grail, without a soul."

Arthur's eyes widened suddenly, and he looked at Kaori in disbelief.

Gilgamesh lowered his eyes, as if he had known this for a long time and remained silent.

"A princess without a soul, but contains extremely powerful magic power, and her puppet body refuses to respond to anyone." Ilya took a deep breath, "'The Cup of Salvation, Abandoned Human Beings'——The Patriarch at that time returned to Einzbe After Lun, he said so."

"I didn't want to abandon humans," Kaori shook her head, still smiling, "I fulfilled your wishes, and I will die myself." She looked at the girl in front of her, "And now, I want to live .”

She still had a smile on her face, "I want to live without a soul, I want to live without a heart, I want to live after taking someone else's life." Her smile seemed to ooze blood and tears, "I want to Is it a crime to live?"

"I will keep going forward, no matter what I face, I will go on, I want to live, so I will try to live no matter what. It doesn't matter if you scold me for being selfish, laugh at me for being cowardly, or blame me for avoiding responsibility, I don't want to Die like this."

It is neither a high-sounding reason for not wanting to sacrifice for human selfish desires, nor is it putting oneself under the weight of overly lofty ideals and responsibilities.

She just simply wants to live.

The girl smiled quietly, with only a firm gleam in her eyes.

Whether it was Elijah, Arthur or David, they didn't know what to say for a while.

"Hahahahahahaha!" Wang let out a hearty laugh as if he had been amused, "This kind of brashness and selfishness are quite worthy of appreciation," he stood up, "Yu agreed, before you brazenly said 'no matter How do you want to live', it doesn't matter, the 'Holy Grail' is up to this king to decide how to use it! Before that, you just need to live brazenly!"

"...you can shut up..." The originally dignified atmosphere became subtle again because of his words, Kaori's shoulders suddenly collapsed, and she looked at him dumbfounded.

And Wang looked at the girl with no joy in his eyes.

The child's own tenacity and tenacity, as a tool to save the world, lacks the ability to say "want to live" openly. There is no doubt that every word and deed conforms to his definition of "pleasure".Whether it is firmly implementing one's own beliefs, lamenting and praising the beauty of the world, or being sad about tragedies and struggling to move forward, everything is undoubtedly enough to make people "pleasant".However, this is not the case. As long as he sees that quiet, gentle, and kind smile that seems to love everything, Gilgamesh's heart will collapse.

- This is not "pleasure".

Quite the opposite.

This is "sadness".

——As long as the girl showed such a gentle and loving smile, he would feel this way.

More than once.

It seems that it has been seen a long time ago, and it is deeply engraved on the soul.
