After settling Alice Fair down,
Su Yu, who had just walked out of the warehouse, happened to run into Jiuyu Maiya, who had just finished cleaning up the house.
This short-haired woman had a lingering murderous aura between her eyebrows,
Seeing Su Yu walk out with a complicated expression, she stepped forward and asked faintly, "How's Madam's situation?"
"She said it's temporarily stable... you go in and accompany her." Su Yu subconsciously avoided her gaze,
"Let me be alone for a while,
I won't go far. "
The short-haired woman stared at her quietly for a few seconds,
Suddenly said, "It's not your fault to kill Saber. This is war."
Hearing this,
Su Yu was stunned for a moment,
The short-haired woman had already brushed past her,
And closed the door of the warehouse.
She stood on the steps in a daze. After a long while,
She slowly walked to the corridor and sat down.
She knew that as long as it was a war, it would inevitably be accompanied by blood and death,
But what made her feel uncomfortable was that she herself did not treat this war as a war.
She participated in it with a muddling mentality,
But she mercilessly erased the sorrowful wishes of two people at the end of the road.
Along the way,
Although she tried her best to do the right thing,
But every time she looked back, there were still quite a few things that made her feel regret,
Even if she did it again,
She did not know what kind of choice was really the right choice.
She had once judged the mistakes of others without authorization,
She had imposed pain without authorization,
She had arranged the so-called best fate without authorization. She had turned a blind eye to the silent heart and watched the cruel phenomenon coldly from the sidelines.
And the result of all this was that while she gradually became soft and humane, she also tasted the taste of regret.
The funny thing was that even if she could do it again, she felt that she would still kill Saber without hesitation at that time.
A golden light flashed behind her, and the aura of a slightly unfamiliar man approached. Su Yu tilted her head and looked into a pair of scarlet vertical pupils.
"Gilgamesh." She said the man's name in a flat tone.
"The flower of evil trapped in the shackles of morality." He lifted a strand of Su Yu's long hair and whispered in her ear, "You're worrying about boring things again. I'll never get tired of seeing you struggle."
Su Yu snappily snatched back the strand of hair. "What are you doing here, Archer?"
She purposely called his name to remind him that they were on opposing sides.
"If Wang really wanted to do it, this place would have been razed to the ground a long time ago." He snorted disdainfully. "You're not a loyal lackey, so stop pretending."
Su Yu rolled her eyes skillfully. "Thank you for letting me win. You are the loyal lackey."
"Hahahahaha," he unexpectedly laughed happily. "I haven't heard such laughable words in a long time. Do you think it's possible, Su Yu?"
His ambiguous answer made Su Yu turn her head to look at him again. The man's handsome face was very close, and her lips almost brushed the tip of his nose when she turned her head.
Su Yu's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly turned her head back. She casually said, "How would I know what you're thinking?"
"Ha." That person sneered again. Just when Su Yu thought that he was going to mock him again, he actually explained seriously, "Shi Chen is undoubtedly a qualified subject. It's just that he is rigid and conservative in his actions and is a little too boring. In comparison, his disciples are much more interesting."
"You mean … Yee Yee Yee?" Su Yu recalled the name and raised her eyebrows in surprise.
She heard this name twice in one day, and it made her curious about this powerful person.
"You are somewhat similar to him," Gilgamesh seemed to have acquiesced to her guess and sat down beside her. "Both of you don't know what pleasure is. You only have this skin that can satisfy most of the desires of the world … Hahahaha."
"Pleasure?" Su Yu didn't understand. She turned her head slightly to look at him, wanting to confirm what he meant.
She didn't expect that her chin would be caught by a hand, and she was forced to turn her head. Gilgamesh's perfect sculpture-like face was close at hand, and her appearance was reflected in his blood-red eyes.
"You say you pursue absolute justice, but you don't know what justice is. You don't have your own subjective judgment, and you rely on others to judge whether you are right or wrong."
He stared intently at the girl's indifferent black eyes. Those eyes seemed to be covered with a thin layer of frost, isolating the seven emotions and six desires of the people of the world. There was no desire, no desire, no sadness, no joy. Compared to those stupid guys who called themselves gods, the girl in front of him was more like a real god.
But unfortunately, the confusion buried in the depths of her eyes reduced her divinity a bit. Instead of saying that she was a god, it was better to say that she was a god who fell from the clouds.
"Think about it, Su Yu, when you killed Caster and Saber, what kind of expression did you have on your face? Did you have the desire to achieve something? The feeling of excitement when you are about to be satisfied? "
Looking at those red eyes, Su Yu fell into silence for a while.
At the same time when he asked, there was already a voice in her heart. She answered, no.
Whether it was when she let those children step into the dark jungle, or when she killed the two Heroic spirit, her heart was frozen and calm. She only took it for granted that she was carrying out a task.
For a long time, she just did what she should do. Because she wanted to live, she should promote her goods. Because she wanted to do the right thing, she should take back her goods. Because it was not good to be entangled too much, she should keep a distance from everyone.
She should wander, she should be a bystander.
She never thought about this question. Why?
Why did she have to wander forever? Why did she have to pursue a long life? Why did she have to exercise justice?
"You don't know what pleasure is," the man's voice lowered and sounded in her ear. "You don't have your own ideas, you don't have any desires. Naturally, you don't understand what you want to do and what kind of path you want to take to make yourself feel satisfied."
"What you are pursuing is not ridiculous justice at all, what you are seeking is self-recognition."
"It's not what you should do, but what do you want to do?"
His words seemed to have magic, making people's thoughts involuntarily fall into a complicated vortex. It was obvious that every question was difficult to answer, but Su Yu had a clear feeling that she had finally grasped the core of the question.
What was her desire?
What she was pursuing should be desire, not justice judged by others, not kindness in the eyes of others, not a good person in the broad sense. No, these were not the true path.
It was herself, only she had the right to judge evil and good.
The man's voice was so close that it seemed to be whispering intimately in her ear. "If it were you, what kind of cute expression would you show when you are struggling in the sea of sinful desires? It doesn't matter if you can't make a decision at the moment. Let me, the king who has enjoyed the ultimate pleasure in the world, teach you what pleasure is …"
Subconsciously, Su Yu's whole body trembled. She didn't know when, but the atmosphere between the two had become quite ambiguous. The man's domineering aura surrounded her, just like the unparalleled wine in the courtyard that night, dangerous and intoxicating.
At this moment, the door of the warehouse suddenly creaked, as if Jiuyu Maiya was pushing the door open. Su Yu's whole body was like a bird startled by the twang of a bow, and she jumped up.
At the same time, a golden spear pierced through the air, aiming at the door of the warehouse!
Su Yu was startled, and she teleported in front of the door to block it. She flicked her long sword to send the frightening weapon flying, and she took a defensive stance. "Archer, what are you doing?"
"Daring to disturb the king's mood, this bastard should apologize with death." Gilgamesh's face instantly turned gloomy, and he stood up. He stared at the girl who raised her weapon for a few seconds, and after a long while, he suddenly calmed down.
"Forget it, I'm not in the mood today anyway." He said some inexplicable words, and then he turned around and dissipated into golden dust. "The next time we meet, it will be a real battlefield …"
That person finally disappeared from the spot.
The door of the warehouse was pushed open a small crack, and Jiuyu Maiya's voice came from inside. "Was that Archer's voice just now? Didn't we just discuss the terms of cooperation with House Toosaka? "
If they turned around and sent Archer to attack, then this matter would be complicated.
"House Toosaka … will probably have nothing to do with them soon." Thinking of the Hero King's excited tone when he mentioned Yee Yee Yee, Su Yu couldn't help but frown. "I'll report the details to Tatsuji later. Maiya, how is Alice Fair?"
"Madam wants to drink some water, I'll get her a glass." Although the short-haired woman answered her question, she didn't show any signs of relaxing, and her face was still full of worry.
Su Yu could only sigh and said, "Seeing you so worried, I'll go report to Tatsuji first. You take care of Alice Fair."
— —
After confirming that Maiya had no problem taking care of Alice Fair alone, Su Yu launched her teleportation ability and found Tatsuji's hotel.
After briefly reporting the results of the conversation and Alice Fair's situation to him, Su Yu finally said, "… and later, Archer found our new place to stay, um … he left after saying a few words."
She now felt guilty as if she was caught having a private meeting with a boy outside by the head teacher.
Fortunately, Tatsuji Omiya didn't react as violently as Maiya. He asked a few more questions about the content of their conversation, and Su Yu only said some irrelevant things.
The man's dull eyes stared at her for a while, and then he let go of the topic. "Forget it. Since we are now in a temporary cooperative relationship with House Toosaka, this information can be considered as our sincerity."
He turned around and extinguished the cigarette in his hand in the ashtray. With his back facing her, he said, "It's getting late. Lancer, go in the direction of National Highway 79 and look for traces of Rider. They'll be our opponents tonight."
His arrangement was simple and clear, but Su Yu didn't act immediately. She stood in the same place in silence. After a long time, she hesitantly asked, "Tatsuji, do you know that if this war continues, Alice Fair will die?"
Why was he still so cold and ruthless? In order not to expose his identity as the real master, he didn't even want to accompany Alice Fair when he heard that she was lying in the warehouse and couldn't move?
The man turned around and looked at her. His thin chin had black stubble. In the choking smell of smoke, his eyes were deep and distant, as if he was looking at another time and space.
He couldn't speak.
Su Yu stood in the same place and waited for a long time, but she still didn't hear any answer. A trace of disappointment appeared between her eyebrows, and she took a step back.
"… I'm going to find Rider." She dropped this sentence and teleported out of the room.
— — —
With some kind of indescribable disappointment, Su Yu didn't go to find Rider as she said. Instead, she wandered around the street.
It was almost evening, the time when the traffic on the street was at its peak. The people on the street all looked like they were in a hurry, and even the girl received less attention.
Su Yu couldn't tell why she was disappointed. Alice Fair was created as the vessel of the Holy Grail. Her mission was to make the Holy Grail smoothly descend. Tatsuji Omiya accepted the employment of the Einzbellen family, so it was understandable that he put the Holy Grail War first.
Yes, these were all things they 'should' do.
Gilgamesh's words in the afternoon seemed to still ring in her ears. Su Yu gradually stopped in the crowd, frowning and thinking.
Why was she disappointed? What kind of picture did she want to see?
The hustle and bustle of the surrounding crowd seemed to be infinitely magnified in her ears. Su Yu closed her eyes, trying to grasp a certain voice in the depths of her consciousness.
The noise on the street didn't show any signs of diminishing. She couldn't hear her own voice in the increasingly noisy crowd.
What was she expecting? What did she want to prove from those two? Her thoughts, her desires …
"Hey!"
An unfamiliar voice suddenly exploded in her ears. Su Yu was startled and immediately opened her eyes.
A hooded man stood beside her. The weather was obviously not warm, but he was still wearing thin clothes. The black hoodie outlined his slightly thin figure. Su Yu frowned. She couldn't seem to find such a figure among the familiar people.
"You are?" She directly asked.
The man slightly raised his head, revealing a thin chin under the brim of his hat. His lips were dry as if they hadn't been exposed to water for many years, and the exposed part of his skin was pale as if it hadn't been exposed to sunlight for a long time.
"Hey, what a coincidence, we meet again." He said and raised his whole face.
Seeing the short gray hair with a trace of light blue, Su Yu's memory suddenly came back. She said with some surprise, "Ah, I didn't expect to meet you here."
