Chapter 206

【Emiya Kiritsugu said in a low voice: "200 people survived, but 300 people died; the pointer of the scale is pointing in the wrong direction!"】

【"No, it's not miscalculated. You did indeed sacrifice the minority to save the majority."】

【"Right, Emiya Kiritsugu."】

【"You have always been personally burying the minority who couldn't let the pointer of the scale point to themselves; even if this will cause a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, as long as lives can be saved because of it, the number protected is more precious."】

【Emiya Kiritsugu said in a deep voice: "Is this what you want to show me?"】

【"That's right, this is your truth, the wish in Emiya Kiritsugu's heart."】

【"In other words, this is the behavior the Holy Grail should do as a wish-granting machine."】

Emiya Kiritsugu: "No! No! This is not my goal; this result has no meaning at all!"

Irisviel: "Kiritsugu, calm down first."

Tohsaka Rin: "What's wrong? Why is he suddenly like this!"

Extra Feng Xi: "Because his persistence has collapsed."

Waver (Second): "How ridiculous; is this the answer given by the omnipotent wish-granting machine?"

Tohsaka Rin: "???"

Waver: "I didn't understand either; what are you talking about?"

Extra Feng Xi: "What was played just now is the answer the Holy Grail gave to Emiya Kiritsugu."

Extra Feng Xi: "Emiya Kiritsugu's wish is for world peace, for there to be no more disputes between people, and the answer the Holy Grail gave him is to kill the part of people who will cause disputes."

Waver: "What!"

Extra Feng Xi: "It's too early to be shocked now."

Extra Feng Xi: "Humans are a contradictory species; it can be said that as long as people exist, disputes will never stop."

Extra Feng Xi: "So the Holy Grail's meaning is that when everyone no longer exists, there will be no more disputes, and the world will be truly peaceful."

Waver: "!!!"

Waver: "In other words, the Holy Grail wants to kill all of humanity!"

Artoria: "What kind of peace is this!"

Sola: "Too terrifying; is the Holy Grail such a terrifying thing?"

Tohsaka Tokiomi: "This is impossible; the Holy Grail absolutely cannot have a problem; it's Emiya Kiritsugu's wish that has a problem."

Iskandar: "Killing all of humanity to achieve peace—well, I don't know how to refute that."

Kayneth: "Because strictly speaking, this kind of thinking is not wrong."

Tohsaka Rin: "Wait a minute, isn't this the curse before Diarmuid exited?"

Waver: "That's right, Diarmuid's curse took effect!"

Diarmuid: "!!!"

Tohsaka Rin: "Good for you, Diarmuid, and you said you wouldn't use curse magic."

Diarmuid: "... I really don't know curse magic; this is just a coincidence."

Kayneth: "Just admit it."

Diarmuid: "..."

I really don't know curse magic; what should I admit?

It's completely impossible to explain now.

【"No, I didn't wish for this!"】

【Just like in reality, Emiya Kiritsugu in the video couldn't accept it either.】

【"I hoped there would be a method other than this, that's why I... I can only pin my hopes on a 'miracle'!"】

【"You cannot include methods you don't know yourself in your wish."】

【"If you wish to save the world, your wish can only be realized through the means you already know."】

【"Stop kidding!"】

【Emiya Kiritsugu completely exploded this time.】

【"If I had a way, why would I look for you? How can you call this a 'miracle'!"】

【"I am naturally a 'miracle', the grand wish you once made but couldn't realize on your own."】

【"And the Holy Grail can complete it for you on a scale that human power cannot reach."】

【"If this is not a 'miracle', then what is it?"】

【Saying this, the master behind the scenes started to stimulate Emiya Kiritsugu again.】

【Emiya Kiritsugu first found himself back in his father's laboratory when he was a child; turning his head, he saw his father Emiya Noritaka standing there.】

【"Father..."】

【"Boom!"】

【Before Emiya Kiritsugu could react, Emiya Noritaka was shot and fell to the ground.】

【"Natalia..."】

【Emiya Kiritsugu turned his head again and found a white-haired woman appearing at some point.】

【This woman was his foster mother and mentor, Natalia Kaminski.】

【Subsequently, the scene turned again, and Emiya Kiritsugu appeared on a small boat.】

【The small boat floated in the middle of the ocean like a lonely boat that could be overturned at any time.】

【"Emiya Kiritsugu, you are the true 'Angra Mainyu', the best candidate to bear 'All the World's Evil'."】

Waver: "All the World's Evil; is this the owner of that voice?"

Kayneth: "All the World's Evil, what is that thing?"

Artoria: "No matter what it is, just hearing the name tells you it's not a good thing."

Gilgamesh: "Hahaha, this development is getting more and more interesting."

Tohsaka Rin: "Angra Mainyu, it sounds like a person's name."

Tohsaka Tokiomi: "I haven't heard this name; have you?"

Risei Kotomine: "I have no impression either."

Kayneth: "I have some impression; it is said that Angra Mainyu is the dark main god in ancient Persian mythology, the source of all evil and darkness."

Waver: "So, a dark god is sealed in the Holy Grail!"

Tohsaka Tokiomi: "Impossible; our family has never recorded such a thing."

Tohsaka Tokiomi: "And the Holy Grail War has been held three times; there have been no problems before, let alone mentioning the existence of Angra Mainyu."

Irisviel: "The Einzbern family has no such records either."

Qin Shi Huang: "Anyway, what we can know now is that this Holy Grail is definitely not a good thing."

Iskandar: "That's right."

【"Then, the last question."】

【The scene turned again, coming to the Emiya family's warehouse.】

【In front of Emiya Kiritsugu appeared Irisviel holding Illya and Maiya Hisau.】

【"Of the remaining three, are you going to save two, or choose to save one?"】

【And this time, Emiya Kiritsugu didn't hesitate and directly stepped forward to kill Maiya Hisau.】

【The scene changed again, becoming their home in the Einzbern castle.】

【'Irisviel' and 'Illya' were both huddled in bed at this time.】

【"Welcome home, Kiritsugu."】

【'Illya' jumped off the bed and threw herself into Emiya Kiritsugu's arms, affectionately saying: "You finally came back."】

【"How is it? Understand now?"】

【'Irisviel' smiled: "This is the method the Holy Grail uses to realize your wish."】

【"Next, you just need to make this wish."】

【Video paused.】

【Question: How will Emiya Kiritsugu choose?】

【A: Make a wish to achieve his dream.】

【B: Settle for the next best thing and make a wish to save Irisviel.】

【C: Back down and hand over the wish-granting right to Artoria.】

【D: Give up the wish and destroy the Holy Grail.】 ===== CHAPTER 208 =====
