831. Why the Buddha is not bald has nothing to do with Xing Ke's lack of compassion
"Long time no see, you two, didn't you miss me?"
A sudden voice intervened in the conversation between the two. It was still the kind of tone that was between frivolous and cordial, chatting and joking. It even made Emiya Kiritsugu and Irisviel feel a sense of distance between them.
There is no illusion that a long time has passed since we met...
"Ah, little Keith!~Long time no see."
Hearing the voice and looking around, Irisviel was surprised to find that Xingji had already sat on the roof of their off-road vehicle and greeted them with a smile.
However, what Irisviel wanted to see more than seeing this "old and crooked" face was another face...
Quickly looking away from the star-shaped figure, Irisviel looked around for the child she missed day and night.
"Well, okay, I actually know that you don't want to see me..."
Xingji was a little disappointed, but not unexpectedly, he jumped down from the roof of the car, pulled out an arm from the void on the side, and pulled out a figure with nowhere to hide, and pushed her to Irisviel's side.
In her arms, Irisviel is still wrapping her dear daughter in her broad mind, feeling her breath over and over again...
"Ilias, I'm sorry, mom misses you so much."
One sentence contains thousands of words over the years, together with the hugs I owe again and again. Irisviel seems to want to convey it to Illya all at once, using all her heart and soul...
But it seemed that she had expected this situation and was hesitant to appear. Illya, who was tightly hugged in her mother's arms, had a blush on her cheeks.
Compared with the touching emotions she had already experienced, she now only felt unbearable embarrassment.
"Mom, you hugged me too tightly——"
The words are full of helplessness and doting, so how can there be any complaints?
——————
"Oh my, our Emiya-san seems to have gotten a lot stronger recently? You have not given up on physical exercise even in your middle age. You are so elegant."
Xingji didn't want to disturb the reunion of mother and daughter, so he stepped on the pedal of the off-road vehicle, got into the driver's seat, and found the silent "strong man" to talk to.
"Although I still haven't figured out the principle of magic in this world, magic here is still made from life energy refined through magic circuits. The more you want to have powerful magic, the stronger your body should be." Emiya Kiri
Si said very calmly:
"It's just that your presence is too foul, teacher."
"Oh? Is it just a popular science explanation? I also expected you to answer me with the sentence [a sound soul relies on a sound spirit to reside on a sound body]. You have disappointed me so much, fool."
He shook his head slowly.
"Is that so? I learned."
Emiya Kiritsugu seemed to be very adaptable to Hoshikatsu's random talk. He dealt with it easily and was not anxious or impatient. He did not have any negative emotions towards Hoshikatsu at all.
Yes, not at all.
"Well, as long as you learn it." Xingke turned to look at Emiya Kiritsugu, then turned his head to the front:
"But you are so boring. You used to be obedient on the surface, but you were scolding me all the time in your mind. But now you are silent when you should be complaining... It's very boring."
Xingke is not some new type of pervert who feels happy when others resent him. He is just...
"Ordinary people have to integrate into the cultural environment of a foreign country within a few years when they arrive in a foreign country, let alone people from one world who reject other worlds? Even if you blame the teacher for this kind of thing, it won't help, right?"
As expected, Emiya Kiritsugu remained calm.
Over the years, he has personally experienced the feeling of being treated as nothing by everyone else and being ignored by others.
"Ha, that's not necessarily true. Maybe I, the almighty one, can find a solution with a little effort?"
"But Teacher, you have no obligation to work hard, right? I also don't have a second wish, a second chance, or a corresponding price to ask you to selflessly dedicate your efforts." Emiya Kiritsugu said about his more than ten years.
Chen Si, who has been here for many years, slowly poured out his words and came to his own conclusion:
"Teacher, your existence is too huge. It is difficult for ordinary people to get along with you on an equal footing."
Getting along as equals means going back and forth. Xingji is too powerful that others can't give him any help or useful things. When you are with him, you can only bear his kindness and dedication.
But blindly asking for things from him will definitely become his vassal and become unequal...
Or, if you accept this kind of request calmly, or even think that the request is natural, then you can only become a simple parasite.
Emiya Kiritsugu is not a devout believer who prays to gods and Buddhas for salvation whenever he encounters adversity and hardship. He still understands this truth.
"You actually want to get along with me as an equal. You really don't know how high the sky is." Xingke smiled very happily: "But it's a pity.
Regardless of whether I owe a favor or not, my efforts may not be that omnipotent. It may take a long time to find a way for lower life forms to not be rejected in another world, and I didn’t catch up this time.”
Thanks to the fact that the stars are not so omnipotent, he has the strength to look forward to tomorrow's sun. Otherwise, in a world without any problems, he doesn't know what else he could start taking action for.
"Well, that's really our... misfortune." Emiya Kiritsugu shook his head helplessly, but there was obviously no trace of sadness on his face.
"By the way, what are you two heartless couple doing, leaving your daughter in England behind and coming to such a remote place?" After confirming the meaning of both parties, Xingke turned to wonder.
"Well, our main purpose is actually to do charity." The person who answered Xingke's question was Irisviel who finally let Illya go.
"...Oh? So you did transport some daily necessities." Xing Ke said calmly, his expression unreadable.
"Well, the wealth that Ilias gave me at that time was so much that I couldn't use it up even if I just lived a quiet life for hundreds of years."
Although Irisviel is the eldest lady, she does not have extravagant material desires. Instead, she has a strong yearning for the vast world.
As for Emiya Kiritsugu, let alone that. He was born in a poor family and did not know how to enjoy. He could easily blow up a luxury hotel building worth hundreds of millions.
