I'm Shenji, what are you doing?

Shinji and his party left, and Rin didn't stop them.

Harsh words were said, declarations were made, and there was no problem in handling the aftermath.

Although no one has seen the aftermath yet, since Shenji said so, it must have been arranged - Rin never doubted this, just like Shenji believed that Rin would not take advantage of others.

The relationship between the two is so strange. They seem to be very bad, and they are at war with each other for a while, but deep down they trust each other, even though Rin will never admit it.

"That wretched fellow, the scoundrel, the conspirator..."

After looking at the direction Shinji left and cursing softly for a while, Gilgamesh interrupted the girl's venting.

"It's about time you stopped. Swearing is a sign of a bastard. And the relationship between you and her is actually not that bad."

"Huh? Do you have a problem with your eyes or ears? Can't you see my expression or hear what I say?"

In response to Rin's aggressive questioning, Gilgamesh just smiled lightly.

"False and deceit have no meaning to me. My eyes can see through the essence of human beings. In my eyes, the so-called lies and scams are just ugly farces of bastards. As a descendant of the king's ministers, Rin, I will not allow you to Become such a bastard.”

"Ah, here we go again. When will my life be decided by you?"

Rin sighed helplessly. After spending some time with Gilgamesh, I became more or less accustomed to his way of speaking.

"I have no intention of deciding your life, but it is the king's responsibility to guide immature children. Let me tell you something that happened during my lifetime. I once conducted such an experiment. I randomly selected ten slaves and said they would kill them. What do you think happened to the 'unnecessary' guy among them?"

"Killing people for such a reason? You are really an unreasonable 'tyrant'!" Rin, who is both good at character and academic, and has a good outlook on life, complained, "You won't kill them all, right?"

"No, the result is just the opposite. None of them can be killed." Gilgamesh shook his head. "They all have their own uses. They are those who run errands, those who sweep the floor, and those who move things. None of them are superfluous."

"Is that so?" Rin looked a little confused.

"Yes, the world was like this before. Everyone was useful. However, this world is different. It is easy everywhere in this world. Even if there are a thousand people to choose from, there will be no one who cannot be killed."

He shrugged sarcastically, and the streetlights flickered, coating the golden king with a layer of deep darkness.

"It has truly become a world that is super gentle to humans. It is so gentle that it is disgusting. Rin, no matter what path you want to take, you are free to be a good person or a bad person. But from then on, I, the King I hope you can find your 'purpose' instead of losing your true nature in this gentle world and becoming the bastard that I hate most, with no goals, aimlessness, and just living simply."

Rin let out a weird "ha": "I can't believe that you would say such a thing again, but does this have anything to do with our previous topic?"

"You also said that I have bad ears, but you are the one who really has bad ears. I just said 'nature', which is the biggest difference between useful and useless. People who lose their nature will have no goals, become bastards, and get lost. The beginning of nature is to deceive intentionally or unintentionally, and not to admit it - to use a new term I saw on TV before, it seems to be 'tired'?"

Being tired is the transliteration of "tsundere", and it is also the weakness that drives Rin crazy again.

"Who is the tsundere! You are the tsundere, I just, I just-"

"It's just that I'm not frank." The corner of Shining's mouth curled up, as if she was very satisfied with Rin's reaction, which made her face flush. "Well, let's not talk about being arrogant or not being frank. There is actually no difference. Maybe you knew at the beginning that you were not. Frankly, but if things go on like this, you will become more and more accustomed to it, and eventually lose yourself. That clown can do this much better than you."

"No way, that guy who sang 'I'm going to blow up the school' is better than me?"

"At least he dared to tell his true feelings and succeeded in pleasing me."

"So, this is what you call 'useful'?" Rin looked at his servant with contempt.

For a moment, she almost lumped Gilgamesh and Shinji into the same party, the mentally ill type.

"Of course, do you think it is easy to make me feel 'pleased'?"

"So, your nature is 'pleasure'?"

"That's right." Gilgamesh nodded happily.

"Hmph, he is indeed a tyrant who can conduct that experiment."

"Rin, you made a mistake. Gaining pleasure through criminal behavior is a sin. Pleasure itself is not a sin. Can you say that it is a sin for humans to gain pleasure through good deeds?"

"Uh..." Rin was speechless.

"I think pleasure is a sin because of the clown's singing? It is human nature to pursue pleasure. Pleasure is fundamentally a part of the soul - well, it may be understandable to a child like you. But that clown You should understand, just for this reason, he is not a bastard."

"he--"

"Don't let your emotions influence your judgment, Rin. From the time I appeared to the time I left, that clown did not do anything deceptive or hide his true nature. Whether it was admitting what he had done, or his evaluation of Tokiomi, or in the end Stopping your sister is all his sincerity. Perhaps it is because of this that the Queen of the Kingdom of Shadows has placed so much hope in him."

Gilgamesh looked at the silent girl and said proudly.

"Rin, I said that I will take care of you, but I am not your nanny. If you want to use my power to win, then show the consciousness to expose your true nature."

"Innate nature, enlightenment..." Rin's expression kept changing.

"Look carefully with your shining eyes, think carefully with your smart brain, and come up with the answer that belongs to you, not what others impose on you. Whether it is 'God', 'family's long-cherished wish', or even ' The same goes for my father's last wish. These are not reasons for you to give up thinking, as that will only bring corruption and degradation of the soul."

Then, Gilgamesh stopped talking and stood there like a perfect sculpture, motionless until Rin sorted out his thoughts and spoke.

"Archer, what do you think of Shinji's previous evaluation of you and your father?"

"You are still struggling with this. Then I might as well tell you that the clown's evaluation is basically correct. Tokiomi and I do have a certain degree of similarity in style, but the essence is different. Tokiomi is dull and boring. , a man with a slow mind who is easily bound by old impressions and cannot see changes in others. From the beginning to the end, he looked down on the man named Matou Kariya, and never thought that he could do that for your mother. To this extent, this is the biggest cause of his defeat. I am different, I also insist, but I insist on my own nature, and being serious about the bastard is an insult to the king - even now, I do not intend to change .”

Having said this, Gilgamesh once again entered a strange state where his eyelids and pupils were both slits.

"Which one will you be, Tohsaka Rin? Will you be bound by the influence of others and become a puppet, or will you be true to your own nature like me?"

PS: Well, Twinkle is an otaku, but Carnival is a solid one.

PS2: Part of the flashy performance in this chapter comes from FZ and FSF, and it is not made up by the traitor.

PS3: As for the name the master calls Cu Chulainn, it should indeed be Setant, but isn’t there an outsider involved? To save some face for Cu Chulainn, she could also tell Sparky directly about Cu Chulainn's identity. After all, she had exposed Sparkling's identity in advance.
