My Destiny Illustrated Book of the Moon

Chapter 68 The next day, the surviving Assassin
【It's too exaggerated, Kirei.Why do you equate pleasure with sin? 】

[Because the pleasure obtained by doing evil may indeed be a kind of evil, but doing good can also make people feel happy, so why assert that pleasure itself is a kind of evil? 】

[The so-called pleasure, in other words, is the form of soul spirit.If we want to talk about happiness, it is not about 'have' or 'not', but 'know' or 'don't know'.Kirei, you still don't understand your own spiritual world.You say that you have no joy in your heart, but that is actually the case. 】

[In short, you should first learn what entertainment is. 】

【Don't say that, this matter can be done in your spare time when Tokiomi explained your work.Kirei, isn't your duty to track down the other five Masters?Then not only investigate the intentions or strategies of those people, but also find out their motives, and then tell the king.This thing is very simple, right? 】

[Knowing that you have lost Assassin—who do you think is in front of you now?There are plenty of treasures in my treasure house! 】

[Didn't I just say that?This king loves the grievances and grievances of human beings.Now there are people here who want to reverse the laws of heaven, and even rely on miracles, just to realize their persistent wishes.Among them there must be an interesting character or two.At least compared to Tokiomi, it will be better. 】

[From now on, this king will still patronize your good wine.Although the wine here can't be called fine nectar, it's all good wine. It's a pity to put it sour in a monk's wine cabinet like this. 】

Archer had already left, the splendor of the room faded away, and the atmosphere in Kirei's room returned to its monotonous look.

Kirei with a calm face sat on the sofa, looking at the few props that looked like eyeballs on the table.

This is the treasure that Gilgamesh gave him. Although it is not as good as Assassin's performance, it is better than ordinary familiars, and it can at least fulfill Archer's requirements.

If you think about it carefully, the people participating in this Holy Grail War, whether they are masters or servants, are all people who desperately want to achieve their long-cherished wishes, but this hero king who goes his own way is not in pursuit of the Holy Grail, just because he does not want to pursue the Holy Grail. He likes to see people fighting for treasures behind his back and causing disturbances, so he will participate in the battle.

Among the servants gathered in Fuyuki City, there is probably no one whose reason for joining the war is weaker than that Heroic Spirit.From this point of view, Kirei is similar to him - the Master who doesn't know why he participated in the Holy Grail War may not find anyone else besides him.

No, there must be a reason for Kirei to join the battle, otherwise it would be impossible to explain why he was the second person to obtain the Command Seal after Tosaka Tokiomi.Perhaps in the depths of Kirei's heart that he didn't realize, he also longed for the miracle of obtaining the Holy Grail.

But what he wants is definitely not the "pleasure" that Archer said, yes, absolutely not!

Kotomine Kirei was packing up a table of wine bottles, thinking of something.

The person who really knows the answer is not Archer, there should be someone else.

Emiya Kiritsugu.That man was closer to the answer Kirei was looking for than anyone else.A thought couldn't help appearing in Kirei's mind, just like the conversation with Archer just now, if he could also have a question-and-answer session with that man—

Of course, the positions of the two sides are quite different.The relationship between these two people will not be a conversation, but a bullet and a sword.But it doesn't matter, Kirei just wants to understand Kiritsugu.The life-and-death struggle that bet on his life can more clearly show the spiritual world of that man than any words.

And... the hands clearing the wine table paused slightly.

That young man who chased him fiercely from the very beginning, Shuo Yue.

Where did his killing intent come from?What was it about me that attracted him?

Inexplicably, Kotomine Kirei felt that as long as he could understand the will of either of them, then——

He will find his own essence.

As for survival or destruction, this is something to consider after finding it.

----

The next day, early in the morning, Matou Kariya's house

After a debilitating night, Sakuzuki and Miyu woke up in the same bed.

Shuo Yue sat up and yawned, scratched at the frizzy hair, turned around and sat by the bed and put on her slippers.

——These actions are completely synchronized with Meiyu.

She wears white children's slippers with bunny ears, and makes a cute puffing sound when she walks—this is Sakura's treasure.

The movements of the two maintained a high degree of consistency, they walked across the living room full of books and snacks, and walked into the bathroom.

Entering the bathroom, Shuoyue skillfully hooked out the small bench under the sink with her feet, passed her hands under Meiyou's armpit, picked her up, and put her on the stool so that she could get enough height to see through the mirror I saw my own face.

Fill the two cups with water, squeeze the toothpaste on the big and small toothbrushes, Shuoyue handed the children's toothbrush to Meiyu, and the two started to brush their teeth in sync.

"Swipe up and down, Gulu Gulu Gulu..."

"Understood, Oni-chan."

Looking in the mirror, it should be a very harmonious picture. The two slackers who also looked sleepy were trying to take care of themselves.

Then Shuoyue wrung out the small towel with hot water, spread it on Meiyou's face, and she obediently stretched out her little hand to wipe it off by herself.

During this period, Shuoyue also took care of herself, after washing up, Shuoyue and Meiyu who raised her head to look at her looked at each other.

The two reached out their hands tacitly——

"rock-paper-scissors."

A ritual that can effectively resolve human disputes since ancient times was carried out.

As a result, Meiyu continued to win the championship, Shuoyue, who had conceded the bet, withdrew her open palm, while Meiyu smiled triumphantly, raised her head proudly like a princess, and issued a declaration of victory.

“Whipped Milk Muffins, Honey Baked Banana Yogurt, and…”

"Sushi, sushi, by the way, I bought salmon yesterday, let's burn it with sauce, Sakuzuki."

While talking, another guy, one big and one small, who were in sync with each other squeezed into the bathroom, the squinting Kariya and the nodding little Sakura who looked like she wasn't awake, apparently she didn't sleep well last night.

The words were interrupted, Meiyou pouted dissatisfiedly, but she lightened up, and was carried out of the bathroom by Shuoyue.

"I want grapefruit black tea, right? I'll make it for you, and I'll make it for you." Shuoyue tickled the girl's little nose provocatively, silently suppressing the ambition of buns and fried dough sticks in her heart, and walked towards the kitchen.

"Let's go, I'll be busy later."

"Don't forget the grilled salmon."

"roll!"

----

After enjoying a delicious breakfast, Kariya and Sakura went to their own business, while Miyu and Sakuzuki went down the stairs to the basement where several barriers were laid out.

Pushing open the door, all of them had different shapes, their bodies were bound by magic belts, and the figures with skull masks on their faces were lowering their heads, as if they were still in a coma—it looked like a den of human traffickers.
