Chapter 518: The Kiss of the Lord: Spear of Longinus (Original)

"If you're so afraid of getting hurt, then don't do anything and just wait to die here!"

Misato wants to use provocation to cheer up Shinji Ikari.

However, Shinji Ikari is not afraid of death. Death has never been something he fears.

He was even more afraid that he would not be able to find the true meaning of fighting and would once again fight for the wrong cause.

What he was afraid of was that he would hurt innocent people again.

Shinji Ikari would rather wait to die here than hurt anyone else.

So he sobbed quietly and sadly.

"What's the use of crying now?"

However, after Misato heard this, she was puzzled.

But she saw that Shinji Ikari was still sobbing without making any excuses.

"You hate yourself..."

Misato said softly, "That's why you hurt others... because you know that hurting others will hurt you more than hurting yourself. But, that was your own decision... and it's also a valuable thing, Shinji! This is your own business!"

Shinji Ikari is very selfless. He would rather be hurt himself than hurt others.

This sounds great, but... Misato hopes he can be more selfish and not just consider others, but also consider himself.

This is the meaning of life.

Doing the right thing is important, but sometimes, the stance is more important than being right.

You know that killing lives just to fill your stomach is wrong, but as human beings, you must eat. This stance is more important than the so-called correct concept of animal protection!

It is wrong to research destructive nuclear weapons, but sometimes you have to master such incorrect weapons to protect your country.

Selfishness is sometimes more important than selflessness.

Now Misato hopes that Shinji Ikari will be a little more selfish, and drive Unit-01 to fight in order to protect himself, to protect other people here, and to stop Seele from causing the Third Impact and destroying humanity!

Fight... Fight forever! (Tata! Tata!)
“Don’t make excuses…think of what you can do!”

Misato continued, "You have to atone for your sins with your own hands..."

However, Shinji Ikari suddenly became excited and said, "Miss Misato, you are not... an outsider at all! You don't understand me at all!!!"

Misato's eyes widened when she heard his words, and then...

She grabbed his collar and pushed him hard into the elevator, no longer as gentle as before, and said angrily, "So what if I'm an outsider! Are you going to just give up like this?!"

"If you don't do anything now, I will never forgive you!"

She lifted Ikari Shinji up, grabbed his face, and said in a pleading and somewhat cursing tone, "I will never forgive you in my entire life!"

"Your current thoughts are not absolutely correct!"

"If you find out later that you were wrong, you'll just have to regret it!"

"I just... make one mistake after another..."

"It's just like this, repeating over and over again... empty joy and self-loathing..."

"But... every time I go through it, I feel like I've made a step forward..."

……

Misato's voice went from being strong to slowly becoming low and soft.

Because she was just like Shinji Ikari, she was an experienced person.

Because she hated her father at first and thought he didn't love her.

But before the second impact, her most hated father sent her into a protective cabin in the last few seconds before the second impact.

Finally let her survive.

She could only watch helplessly as her father, whom she hated the most, was reduced to ashes in the second impact...

Although she got over it later, she could no longer talk to her father and could no longer make up for the regrets and pain.

Later, she met Ryoji Kaji again, but she was the same as before, distancing herself from him again and again in false joy and self-loathing.

And once again, she didn't have time to say anything to Ryoji Kaji.

Ryoji Kaji was assassinated.

Misato...has a lot more to say, but there's no chance anymore.

So Misato doesn't want Shinji Ikari to be immersed in hatred and conflict, and finally lose everything passively and then regret it.

For many things, you don’t have to think them through before you do them.

Regret medicine is the most useless medicine in the world.

Shinji Ikari looked at Misato, and he seemed to understand something.

"Listen carefully...Shinji..."

Misato looked at him and continued, "Once again... get on the EVA and put an end to all this! Ask yourself why you want to drive the EVA, why you came here, and why you stay here... Find the answer in your heart..."

"Then, when everything is over...you must come back again."

She placed the cross necklace her father had given her around her neck into Ikari Shinji's hands and said gently, "It's a promise..."

"Um……"

Finally, Ikari Shinji figured it out and agreed with a vague look in his eyes.

"Go ahead..."

Misato smiled, but...slowly lowered her face.

She and Shinji Ikari kissed.

In the dark corridor, only the elevator behind Shinji Ikari had some light.

for a long time.

"This is an adult kiss."

Misato parted her lips and whispered to Shinji Ikari, "We'll continue after you come back..."

Then the elevator behind Shinji Ikari suddenly opened. He didn't react at all and was still leaning on the elevator railing.

Now without support, he retreated directly into the elevator.

Just as he exclaimed, the elevator door closed and he quickly rose up.

however……

Behind Shinji Ikari, Misato collapsed weakly against the wall.

"If I had known this would happen, I would have listened to Asuka and replaced the carpet..."

Misato fell in a pool of blood, her eyes weak as she said, "Kaji, you said I am doing this... right?"

But at this moment, Rei Ayanami appeared at some point, right in front of her, looking at her.

However, the next moment, a white light suddenly appeared in the elevator where Misato was.

"boom--"

Seele's army blew up the place, and Misato was killed in the explosion.

At this point, Misato died and left the stage.

She entrusted her hope of life and all her meaning to Ikari Shinji, just like...

Just like her father, Dr. Katsuragi.

……

The audience watched this scene in disbelief. Misato...did she die just like that?
Died in the enemy's explosion?
Or...actually, after being shot just now, she already knew that she didn't have much time left, so she just let Shinji take the elevator and drive Unit 01, intending to end it all.

However, Misato's death and exit still made the audience feel quite uncomfortable no matter what.

Fan Siwei and his girlfriend Li Xi were recording the material for the next video. After seeing this scene, they both felt that their trachea was a little blocked... and their voices choked up.

"Miri... wuwuwu..."

The more fragile Li Xi burst into tears, crying so hard that her makeup was ruined.

Fan Siwei immediately embraced her, but he was also a little sad, and tears could not stop falling slowly from his eyes.

Misato is dead, the true guardian of Shinji Ikari.

She is actually more like Shinji Ikari's parent than Ikari Yui or Ikari Gendo.

Although she had done some excessive things to Shinji Ikari, she always protected and guided him.

Even at the last moment of his life, he was protecting Shinji Ikari, guiding him, enlightening him, and urging him to fight instead of waiting until it was too late to regret meaninglessly.

So in the hearts of the audience, Misato is actually no worse than other heroines such as Asuka and Ayanami Rei.

But they forgot...

In Lin Qingshan's works, such characters don't live long.

Do you think...the second generation Rei Ayanami can be stabbed?

Even Ryoji Kaji was not spared.

So can Misato escape this disaster?
Innocent!

At this time, the audience finally remembered the fear they felt when they were dominated by the knife-hairing demon Qingshan Laozei!
At this time, they were also crying and commenting, and they had even gone to major social media platforms to curse Lin Qingshan -

"Qingshan old thief!!!"

"I was really... too naive. I knew that Qingshan the old thief was such a person, and I knew that he would send knives, but I still didn't notice this. I was not mentally prepared to see Misato being sent a bento. The child was already crying silly."

"Oh my Misato!"

"As we all know, a good woman won't live long under the hands of the old thief Qingshan."

"I'm numb. Both EVA and Fate Stay Night have lasted for half a year. I thought Qingshan the old thief had turned over a new leaf, but I didn't expect... he's still the same hair knife devil."

"Ah? The old villain Aoyama turned over a new leaf? You're overthinking it. Didn't Rei Ayanami get stabbed in the beginning of EVA? Didn't Ryoji Kaji get stabbed? Didn't Kaworu Nagisa get stabbed? And Fate stayed tonight, didn't Illya, Uncle B, and Dog Brother die tragically?"

"Sure enough, I was overthinking it, wuwuwu, old thief Qingshan! Give me back Sister Misato!"

"Adult's kiss... didn't we agree to continue after Shinji comes back? Misato, why don't you keep your promise!!!"

"But did I see Rei Ayanami just now? Rei Ayanami appeared there?"

"It seems so... but it doesn't look like Rei Ayanami's real body, or... is it like the time with Kaworu Nagisa?"

……

But the audience is still watching it because...

There is no time to continue mourning Misato's death, because the next to appear are... Asuka and Unit 2!

The scene returns to Asuka driving Unit 02 facing nine mass-produced EVAs.

Although Unit 02 was running out of power, Asuka's confident driving of the self-repairing Unit 02 once again defeated a mass-produced EVA.

At the same time, she used a high-energy particle vibration knife and rushed towards the next mass-produced EVA.

Its arm was directly cut off, but the high-energy particle vibration knife was also shattered under the weight.

The mass-produced EVA used its remaining arm to grab the head of Unit 2 and started fighting again.

The BGM suddenly became weird. Although it was not "Ode to Joy", it was also a quiet and peaceful religious music.

"Aria on the G String".

Amid the sound of this music, Asuka, in a runaway manner, once again took down one mass-produced EVA after another.

only……

The audience sensed something was wrong.

Why...the AT field of Unit 02, which was once invincible, seems to have completely disappeared?

Is it because of power outage?

In the scene where Asuka is driving Unit 2 at full speed, two other different scenes are interspersed.

When Shinji Ikari arrived at the place where Unit 01 was, it seemed to be sealed by something red and melted. He heard Asuka's complaints at this time.

And on the other side...

It was Ikari Gendo who brought the naked Ayanami Rei to Lilith.

Not far away, Ritsuko, who hadn't been seen for a long time, was also sitting there.

Rei Ayanami came in front of Lilith and stared at the strange face, as if it meant something.

But at this moment, Ritsuko stood up and took out the pocket of her white coat...

He pulled out a revolver.

She actually slowly aimed at Ikari Gendo and Ayanami Rei, and then... pulled the trigger!

But then, with the sound of a trigger being pulled, the scene cuts back to Asuka driving Unit 02 to challenge the mass-produced EVA.

Unit 02 brutally cut a mass-produced EVA in half!

On the other side, Ritsuko pointed a pistol at Ikari Gendo and Ayanami Rei and pulled the trigger, but nothing happened.

Because she planned to settle the matter in another way.

She set the computer system at NERV headquarters to self-destruct, but when she pressed the remote in her other pocket, it didn't start...

Because... the MAGI system has three procedures, and they must be confirmed together before the self-destruction program can be activated.

However...the artificial intelligence created with the personality of Ritsuko's mother Naoko rejected the switch to activate the self-destruct program.

"Mom chose her man... instead of her daughter?"

Ritsuko couldn't believe the result was like this.

The mother Naoko's personality made her choose Ikari Gendo, the man who killed her.

However, at this point, Ritsuko has lost all her power.

In the end, she had no bullets in her pistol and was shot dead by Gendo Ikari.

Asuka is still struggling to fight against the mass-produced EVA. Now she is fighting alone and seems somewhat helpless.

But because she found that her mother's soul was watching her in Unit 2, she didn't feel anything wrong at all.

“Ahhhhhhhhhh!!! Mommy’s looking at me!”

She tried her best to defeat the opponent's mass-produced EVA again.

But at this moment...

On the other side, the mass-produced EVA threw the huge weapon in its hand that looked like a double-edged flying knife!

Asuka reacted quickly, turned around, and released an AT force field to block the huge weapon thrown at her.

The AT force field blocked the huge weapon thrown at it, leaving it suspended in the air.

But the next moment...

The thrown weapon suddenly changed its shape and turned into a spirally entangled black spear!

"The Lance of Longinus?"

Asuka said, her eyes widening somewhat unexpectedly.

Then the next moment, the Spear of Longinus directly broke through the powerful AT field of Unit 2...

Pierce into the head of Unit 2!
"Ah ah ah ah ah--!!!!"

Asuka let out a cry of pain!
