Chapter 111

[Kirei Kotomine follows immediately, but looks back with reluctance.]

[He seems to want to carve Emiya Kiritsugu's appearance into his mind.]

[The correct answer is C.]

[Congratulations to Feng Xi, Hassan of the Hundred Faces, Zhang Jiao, Sigurd for obtaining 3 Saint Quartz.]

[The rest answered incorrectly, 1 Saint Quartz deducted.]

Waver: "Now it all matches up."

Lady: "That child is Emiya Emiya Shirou."

Kayneth: "Gilgamesh stayed in the world; I don't know what will happen."

Waver: "Shouldn't cause any big trouble, right?"

The Second: "Can rest assured on that point."

King of Heroes: "This King is not the type of person who likes to kill at will."

Rin Tohsaka: "Do you believe yourself when you say that?"

[Second question over, now starting the third question.]

[This question is a time-limited rush answer.]

[Please watch the video; rush answering starts immediately after the video ends.]

[The first to answer correctly gets 3 Saint Quartz; answering incorrectly deducts 1 Saint Quartz.]

[If no one answers within 1 minute, the system will randomly select 1 person to answer.]

[Video starts.]

["I remember his face; it was a face full of tears, yet a man who was sincerely happy to have finally found a living person."]

[The scene follows the previous video, but this time the protagonist is Emiya Emiya Emiya Shirou.]

["He seemed so happy, it almost made me think that the one being saved wasn't me, but himself."]

["Still alive, still alive, still alive..."]

[Emiya Kiritsugu holds Emiya Emiya Emiya Shirou, sobbing uncontrollably.]

["He seemed to be grateful to someone. With a tone that made even me, who was about to die, envious, he said thank you."]

["He said, it's great to have found me."]

["He said, even if it's just one person, it's his salvation."]

[The scene shifts; a slightly older Emiya Emiya Emiya Shirou is lying on Emiya Kiritsugu, crying.]

[And Emiya Kiritsugu on the bed is already on his last breath.]

[Video paused.]

[Rush answer start: What was the reason for Emiya Kiritsugu's passing?]

Emiya Kiritsugu "!!!"

Lady: "Kiritsugu, died!"

Kayneth: "This is interesting; in the video, it should be several years after the Fourth Holy Grail War; could it be that something happened again?"

Waver: "Could it be Gilgamesh and the others who did it?"

King of Heroes: "Hmph, this King has no interest in killing a walking corpse."

[Feng Xi successfully rushed the answer.]

Rin Tohsaka: "Hmm? You have the answer so quickly?"

Kayneth: "Damn, I got used to discussing it for a moment, letting this kid get ahead."

Feng Xi: "I won't use your answers."

Feng Xi: "My answer is: Emiya Kiritsugu died because of the curse of the evil of this world."

[Answer correct, Feng Xi obtains 3 Saint Quartz.]

Kayneth: "!!!"

Waver: "Oops, how did we forget about this?"

Tokiomi Tohsaka: "As an evil god, its curse is indeed not just talk."

Lady: "Kiritsugu also died, then Illya..."

Emiya Kiritsugu: "..."

[Video continues.]

[At the last moment of his life, Emiya Kiritsugu's memory begins to flash back.]

[At this time, 5 years have passed since the end of the Fourth Holy Grail War.]

[After the Holy Grail War ended, he returned to the Einzbern family, wanting to Matsuwanko Matsuwanko Take Illya away, but was refused by the patriarch 'Jubstacheit von Einzbern'.]

[He already knew that Emiya Kiritsugu ordered the destruction of the Lesser Grail, believing that Emiya Kiritsugu broke their agreement and failed to bring back the Holy Grail, so he refused Emiya Kiritsugu's request, didn't even let Emiya Kiritsugu see Illya, and drove him out of the castle.]

[Helpless, Emiya Kiritsugu could only return to Fuyuki City, bringing his adopted son Emiya Emiya Emiya Shirou, and settled down completely in the Emiya house.]

[For many years, Emiya Kiritsugu tried to Matsuwanko Matsuwanko Take Illya away, but never succeeded.]

[At the same time, Emiya Kiritsugu discovered that his body was heading toward death.]

[Physical weakness, atrophy of hands and feet, blurred vision, complete loss of magical ability.]

[It can be said that he was almost no different from a terminally ill patient.]

[Finally, let alone the castle, he couldn't even enter the forest barrier of the Einzbern residence.]

[Emiya Kiritsugu understood that the curse of the evil of this world had taken effect.]

[It wanted Emiya Kiritsugu to die in pain and regret.]

[But Emiya Kiritsugu did not do as it wished.]

[Emiya Kiritsugu, who returned to Fuyuki City, spent a long time searching and finally found the Great Hole where the Holy Grail ritual was hidden in Mount Mount Yuancang, using everything he learned to create a 'tumor' on the mountain.]

[This 'tumor' would Matsuwanko Matsuwanko Take thirty to forty years to form, at which point it would destroy the Great Hole and completely end the Holy Grail War.]

[And the Holy Grail needs sixty years to fill up.]

[Without the Holy Grail War, Illya would no longer follow Irisviel's old path.]

[Finally, he stayed by Emiya Emiya Emiya Shirou's Reverse Reverse Reverse Reverse Side and spent the last years of his life.]

[After confirming that Emiya Emiya Emiya Shirou would not follow his old path, Emiya Kiritsugu also welcomed death with relief.]

Kayneth: "..."

Kayneth: "Fine, Emiya Kiritsugu, I respect you."

Emiya Kiritsugu's actions of resisting even in the last lesson of his life finally made Director Kayneth have a big change in view of him.

Diarmuid: "Me too."

Lancelot: "Me too; you are a person worthy of respect."

Artoria: "Hmm."

Lady: "Kiritsugu, you..."

Emiya Kiritsugu: "It's okay; at least, I still protected Illya."

King of Heroes: "What a boring development."

Conqueror: "Gilgamesh, say less."

Rin Tohsaka: "Wait, this video isn't over yet."

[The scene shifts, and the date 2004 appears on the video.]

[Then the scene begins to change rapidly.]

[An older Rin Tohsaka counts the time and begins the summoning ritual in her attic.]

["Summon quickly, or I'll die."]

[Illya and Emiya Emiya Emiya Shirou pass by each other and say softly.]

[Kirei Kotomine is threatening someone, and there is blood on the ground under his feet.]

[The old worm watches a numb Sakura perform the summoning ritual.]

[Emiya Emiya Emiya Shirou is chased by an unknown figure, runs into his own warehouse, and happens to fall on the summoning circle left by Emiya Kiritsugu.]

[A flash of light, and a figure blocks the attack, saving Emiya Emiya Emiya Shirou.]

[It is Artoria.]

[The screen goes black, displaying a line of text.]

[The Fifth Holy Grail War, begins.]
