Roaming Collector

() black, pitch black, biting black.

It's like the Milky Way broke its embankment!

From the "hole" in the sky, what broke down the embankment was pure black mud like paste.

It is a collection of "evil" of all human beings. For human beings, it is a "natural enemy" and a "ghost".

Facing the scene of a natural disaster, whether it is the noble magician Tosaka Tokiomi, the devout believer Kotomine Risei, or the self-proclaimed partner of justice, Emiya Kiritsugu, all showed uncontrollable horror on their faces .

Not only the three masters, even Ika, who is an artificial angel, couldn't stop frowning when facing this collection of pure evil.

Only Makoto and Kirei who threw themselves into the "hole" had expectant smiles on their faces.

However, the smile on Kirei's face and his unhesitating behavior of following the Devil Emperor and throwing himself into the "hole", in Kotomine Risei's eyes, turned into simply going to die.

Kirei is Rizheng's only son, born in old age.

Although he has always been strict with Kirei, his love for this son has actually reached the level of doting.Although he couldn't show it, to the old priest, the importance of his son was above everything else!

Even above your own beliefs.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Why?! Why did you bring Kirei into the abyss of evil?!"

Yan Fengli lost his composure.For the sake of his only son, he even yelled out his question loudly, and yelled out the question from the bottom of his heart to the crown he believed in.

However, his question was not answered.

How could the two of them, who were completely immersed in the "hole", be overwhelmed by endless darkness, answer his question?

The old priest slumped on the ground.

Seeing the endless darkness pouring out of the hole, he gritted his teeth and made a decision.

"Archer, throw me in too!"

Pointing to the hole in the sky, he gave Ika instructions.

"No." Ika shook his head: "The master said that if you go in, your soul will be eroded."

"But the old man's son..."

"It's different." Descending from the sky, Ika stood beside the priest and looked up at the hole in the sky: "Your son, nothing will happen."

"what?"

"The master said that Kotomine Kirei is special, and he is qualified to drink bitter wine with the master."

"..." Rizheng was silent, he looked at the hole in the sky silently, but his heart was overwhelmed: "Kirei, what kind of agreement did you reach with Your Majesty without telling me?"

……

Desperate?

Looking at the black mud pouring out from the sky, Kiritsugu calmly lit a cigarette after getting over the initial panic.

The black mud represented the evil of all human beings, it was pure despair, but he saw the light of hope from those pure darkness.

Can't help but think of the King of Heroes' words before he died, Kiritsugu smiled numbly.

Here, it is not an inherent enchantment, nor is it a magical enchantment, but a different world in the true sense, a different world where nothing exists except the barren and unknown dark red.

Using a barren world to accommodate all the evils of this world, is this the way the Devil Emperor saves everything?Although I don't know what happened to the little girl who claimed to be Gaia, but it is enough to deal with the evil in this world.

Even, he and his wife will be buried with him because of this.

After snuffing out the cigarette butt that was glowing with flames, and casually throwing the butt of the unsmoked cigarette aside, Kiritsugu laughed.

This piece of land seems to have some strange ability. No matter how much black mud gushes out of the hole, it will be easily carried by the earth and firmly bound in a fixed range. It will not overflow, nor will it pollute or spread.

However, he took the initiative to step towards the "black pool".

Emiya Kiritsugu... already understood.

The moment he witnessed the black mud pouring out of the hole in the sky, the moment he was terrified by the black mud and couldn't sit still, he knew it.

How huge is the evil in this world; how pure is the evil of all human beings.

That is the absolute horror that as long as he devotes himself to it, he will be assimilated. It is a disaster from heaven and man.

So, he got it.

There is no need for Emiya Kiritsugu to stay.

In the past, the question that I had been avoiding all the time, and I didn't want to imagine, finally came to my mind.

When he faced his other self... how many people could be saved by killing Emiya Kiritsugu?

To put it another way, how many lives has this man named Emiya Kiritsugu killed with his own hands over the years?

Kiritsugu smiled.

Laughed self-deprecatingly.

He didn't know how many souls were sent to hell by his own hands... That was a number that he couldn't count, and he didn't count it!

He has the consciousness of turning into evil for justice, but when he sees the real evil, he suddenly realizes how insignificant his own evil is.

This man, Emiya Kiritsugu, cannot bear all the evil in this world, so everything he has done before has no justice at all. He is just a pure killing machine, a pure villain.

What he really expected was the destruction of the world?

Destroy this battered world that is suffering in the dark flames and has been eaten by the bad roots of human nature.Looking forward to the moment when the world is destroyed, the most central and smallest part that has not been eaten can be revealed.The Taoyuan that has been turned into an eternal scroll in the depths of his memory... the Taoyuan that was destroyed by his father himself!

The original, innocent Emiya Kiritsugu who yearned for world peace and swore to be a partner of justice... is dead.He died by his own hands, by a bullet, and that bullet also took his father's life.

The innocent and innocent Emiya Kiritsugu died.What is left is nothing but a dirty and dirty body.

Looking at Heichi, who was less than a step away from him, the magician killer, the man with cloudy eyes, suddenly regained his real name.

He gave up the pure land he finally obtained again, and what he got in exchange was unprecedented, at least it was the safety and salvation of a city's people.

For this, he has no regrets.

Because he is a partner of justice, he is a person who can willingly give his all in order to save the world.

He is also a sinner, a sinner who cannot forgive himself.

Hitomi regained clarity, staring at the pitch-black Ike, with unprecedented gentleness blooming on his face.

"Ellie, I'm sorry. I don't regret it, though."

"Ai Li, will you wait for me?"

"Whether you wait for me or not, I will try my best to catch up with you."

"Because I am Emiya Kiritsugu, your husband."

"because……"

"My mission is over!"

Without hesitation, plunge into the pool!
