ALL NOVEL Chapter 17
Maiya hides behind a pillar.
There was only a pistol in hand.
The automatic rifle was pinned to the ground by a black key.
"Or is he good at doing things that magicians don't expect?"
"Yan Feng... Qili. "
Maiya knew the man who attacked her.
The representative of the Templar Church, suspected to be the Master of the Assassin, the man whom Kiritsugu judged to be extremely dangerous.
"Huh, should I have met you for the first time, or do you have a reason why you have to know me?"
"Then I can almost imagine who you are!".
Yan Feng Qili said, turned around, and looked in the direction where Kuyu Maiya was hiding.
Emiya Kiritsugu, that man's assistant!
"Don't let me speak alone, woman, you just need to give me an answer, where is the man who was supposed to be here in your place!".
Maiya quickly came out from behind the pillar and raised her pistol to shoot quickly in the direction where Yan Feng Qili was.
But a black key flew quickly.
Kuyu Maiya couldn't avoid it, her left hand was scratched, and the pistol also fell to the ground.
"You're pretty good, it looks like you've been trained rigorously!"
Yan Feng Qili had six more black keys in his hand.
A smoke bomb, which was thrown in.
Kuyu Maiya took advantage of the smoke bomb to block Yan Feng Qili's sight and escaped from the elevator shaft.
Yan Feng Qili picked up the smoke bomb.
"Didn't the woman throw it out? Forget it, as long as you make sure someone is helping her, then tonight will be worth something. "
After returning to the church.
Yan Feng Qili saw an unexpected figure.
“Archer！"
Gilgamesh, lying on the couch in his room.
Surrounded by scattered wine bottles.
"Although there are fewer of them, there are more good wines in your room than those in the room of the hour. You're such a bad disciple. "
"What the hell are you doing?"
Hearing Yan Feng Qili's inquiry, Gilgamesh replied:
"I just think I'm not the only one who gets bored. "
"Boring?".
"Otherwise, the Lord who is protected by the church won't just leave the church, right?"
Gilgamesh shook the wine glass in his hand, the corners of his mouth raised, and looked at Yan Fengqili.
Apparently knowing what he had just done.
"What are you talking about? Are you dissatisfied with the contract now? Gilgamesh. "
Yan Feng Qili said as he squatted down and began to tidy up the bottles that were still intact.
"Shi Chen summoned me so that I could remain physical in modern times, and more importantly, he treated me with courtesy, and I always had to have something in return. "
"But, I didn't expect him to be such a boring man. It's boring to get to the roots!"
"The desire for roots is an idea that every magician will have. Reaching to the roots, beyond the outside of the world, is not something that those of us who are interested in the inside of the world can understand. "
"I see, I'm satisfied with just pampering the universe that is my garden. There is no interest in unreachable areas. "
"The Holy Grail is called omnipotent, not a unique device to the roots, hiding the infinite possibilities within the world of change. The vast majority of people pursue the interests of the world. "
"Oh, and what is your motive for the Holy Grail? "
"I... There is no desire. "
"Doesn't the Holy Grail only choose those who deserve it?".
"It should be so, but I don't understand why I, who have no ideals and long-cherished wishes, was chosen to participate in the Holy Grail War. "
"If you don't have ideals and long-cherished aspirations, then pursue pleasure. "
Gilgamesh looked at Yan Feng Qili and said.
"What are you kidding? I won't touch that sinful depravity!"
"Why is pleasure associated with sin, is it pleasure through evil deeds? This may be sin. But people can also feel pleasure through good deeds, and what is the reason for judging that pleasure itself is evil?"
"There was no joy in my heart. I've been looking for a long time, but I've never found it. "
- Qili, in fact, you are in love with me.
In Yan Fengqili's mind, the sickly and thin woman resurfaced in a trance.
"Yan Feng Qili, I suddenly became interested in you. "
Gilgamesh's words interrupted Yan Fengqili's memories.
"What do you mean?".
"That's what I mean literally, sit down. The so-called pleasure is not a question of having or not knowing, but knowing or not knowing. "
Gilgamesh said, put down the wine glass, looked at Yan Feng Qili, and said
"Qili, you haven't seen the form of your soul clearly! That's why you say that there is no joy in your heart. "
"Hero King, do you want to preach to me?".
As a servant, to preach to him, the substitute of the Templar Church
These are the words of the king, who has enjoyed all the luxuries and pleasures of the world. Shut up and listen to me. "
"Yan Feng Qili, you should understand what entertainment is, and first focus on the outside things. How about starting with entertaining me?".
"I don't have time to waste having fun. "
Yan Feng Qili sat down and said in a serious tone.
"Don't say that, this can be done in the free time of the work that Shi Chen has given you. Your job is to keep an eye on the other five masters, right?"
"Don't just investigate their intentions and strategies, but investigate them along with their motives. Then tell me about it. "
"Why... Archer, why would you want to hear this?".
"Probably because there will be one or two interesting guys among them. At least it will be more interesting than Shi Chen. "
"I promise you, Archer. But it will take time. "
"It's okay, I'll wait for you. "
When Gilgamesh finished speaking, he put down his glass and left the place in a spirit.
In the room, only Yan Feng Qili was left.
"What motives for the pursuit of the Holy Grail... I could say so many things! It's definitely not for any pleasure. "
Yan Feng Qili closed his eyes and leaned back on the sofa.
But... The man.
If I could figure out his motives, would I be able to better understand what I was after?
In Yan Fengqili's mind, a man's figure quickly emerged.
Emiya Kiritsugu!
