Chapter 380

How to trigger this crisis? Just attack someone who has no connection to the film set but happens to be on set.

For example...

Own?

Li Pu instinctively lay down on the ground, and suddenly a flash of light appeared in the sky, and an unknown spear was stuck directly into the tree behind him.

'Ha... this Golden Flash is really something...' Li Pu got up from the ground, looked up at Gilgamesh standing on the top of the cross in the church, who was Gilgamesh, and said, ' Matou Kariya, enough said, I'm leaving now. Let's leave it at that for today. You only need to do one thing now, take your Goddess and run away as fast as you can.'

"Scum!" Golden Flash stood atop the cross, looking at Li Pu with disdain. "Who gave you permission to raise your head and look at me, the King?"

"Such rude scum deserves to die!"

He's an ordinary person, yet he doesn't seem ordinary either. He definitely possesses some magical power, and he appears to know about the Holy Grail War; he doesn't seem entirely insignificant.

While the Holy Grail War is a secret for ordinary people, it is not so for Magecraft.

He must be a Magecraft knew some information and then got involved to offer advice to Berserker's Master.

He's just a piece of trash. But this piece of trash is quite clever; he managed to direct Matou Kariya to push Kirei Kotomine to this point so quickly that he had no choice but to take action.

Although it was a slightly smarter piece of trash, that's about it.

Die! Just as you came into this world without any value, so too will your death be without any value.

Golden Flash watched the person scrambling to get into the car with disdain. He wasn't in a hurry to chase after him, and one could even say he was playing with him. He waited until the person got into the car, started it, and drove off for a distance before casually unleashing a Noble Phantasm.

"Die!"

The Noble Phantasm flew over, the Noble Phantasm exploded, and then...

That tiny Honda Fit actually dodged it with a drift!

"Huh?" The scene he had been anticipating and admiring—a desperate escape where the victim dies just when they think they're about to get away—didn't happen. He was still running! Especially the two swaying motions the car made after it straightened out seemed like a provocation.

"This is getting interesting!" Golden Flash sneered. "He's a rather interesting piece of trash!"

It's interesting that it managed to dodge my attacks twice.

'Won't that Golden Flash try to catch up, will he?' Li Pu thought nervously. 'No, that guy will definitely catch up.'

He dodged Golden Flash's attack the first time and ran to the car, then dodged another one. He figured Golden Flash would definitely chase after him! If he kept dodging his attacks, Golden Flash wouldn't give up so easily.

Given Golden Flash's personality, the more she could dodge his attacks, the more likely she would be to pique his interest.

"But it can do it!" Although a little nervous, Li Pu felt a bit more at ease. It could succeed! Although he believed his own body was inferior to any of the other characters, he was still able to dodge Golden Flash's two attacks in a row.

My sixth sense and predictive abilities seem to be quite strong.

Regardless of whose foresight or sixth sense they inherited.

In short, it's useful now!

'We must create a staged death scene,' Li Pu thought to himself. 'We also need a suitable place where I can escape safely.'

'This place is...'

While keeping an eye on the road conditions ahead, Li Pu was also thinking of a solution.

What to do? What to do?

Are there any scenarios suitable for me to escape from?

Here it comes again!

Li Pu sensed danger approaching, so he drifted to the left again. He had only drifted a short distance when the road to his left exploded, and he simultaneously executed a 180° fishtail, turning the car around. Then he floored the accelerator and charged madly towards Gilgamesh.

At the same time, the road behind him exploded!

'No!' Through the windshield, Li Pu noticed a golden ship in the sky.

'This guy really doesn't hold back!'

'Forget it! I don't care anymore!' Li Pu gritted his teeth, turned left, and rushed off the road into the woods.

"It's jammed! My super luck depends on you!"

Li Pu remembered the data he received from Kiritsugu; all his attributes were hidden. But there was one attribute that was ridiculously high!

Luck!

This luck, which made the spearmen envious and even resentful, is probably his last chance to go all out!

It plunged into the woods, countless bushes whizzing past the car. Small branches rattled against the windshield. Then, in a truly absurd move, Li Pu slammed on the accelerator and released both hands from the steering wheel.

Then she closed her eyes.

Destiny!

I am the Goddess of Fate!

You decide what to do!

Chapter 53 How Did You Get Back?

How did you get back?

Matou Kariya looked utterly astonished as she faced the disheveled Li Pu.

"Air Force guy... no, I misspoke, I meant fisherman." Li Pu grabbed a handful of his dry but sticky hair and said, "Fell off a cliff, went into the sea, swam underwater, and then got caught by a fisherman fishing in the sea."

"I don't think even that fisherman ever imagined he would catch a living person in his life."

No matter what, catching a live person while fishing is just too outrageous.

"No." Matou Kariya said, seemingly very understanding, "Fishermen can catch anything except fish, so you're not the most outrageous thing they can catch; at most, you're something that's not commonly seen."

Matou Kariya said this, Li Pu did not refute it.

"So my car is gone?" Matou Kariya seemed to be thinking of something else.

"Otherwise?" Li Pu retorted. "I don't have the ability to drive your car back from the sea. This is reality, it's not like you can make your car race across the sea just by entering 'sea ways'."

It veered off the road, plunged into the woods, then flew off a cliff and finally crashed into the sea.

This gave Li Pu a chance to escape, and Golden Flash had no intention of going into the water to continue the chase. He circled twice in his spaceship and then flew away.

If he continued watching, Li Pu felt he might be forced to switch roles.

"No~" Matou Kariya shook his head and said, "I'm not worried about the car, I just think that Tokiomi's Servant is not someone who is so easy to give up."

"So I'm a little surprised that you were able to come back. He was chasing after you relentlessly before."

Actually, Matou Kariya had something else he didn't say. He still harbored the kind of mentality that enjoys watching funerals and stirring things up. So he was really hoping to see Li Pu fight Golden Flash, and then Golden Flash be completely wiped out.

However, Matou Kariya was quite disappointed that Li Pu managed to escape in such a sorry state and only managed to make it back by maximizing his luck.

However, Li Pu did not notice Matou Kariya's little scheme. He said, "According to my classification, Gilgamesh belongs to the 'pleasure party.' If a person can make him feel 'pleasure,' he will definitely persevere. But if a person cannot make him feel 'pleasure' or even 'bored,' he will not care about that person."

The Goddess himself might be Golden Flash target, but the non- Goddess version of himself would certainly not bring Gilgamesh any pleasure.

However, this is just as well. A day and a half has passed since the upgrade started, and the most dangerous time should be over. There shouldn't be any major incidents in the remaining day and a half.

"By the way, about Tohsaka Tokiomi," Matou Kariya suddenly asked, "I was thinking..."

"What are you thinking?" Li Pu retorted. "You're going to say, 'I'll take care of your wife'?"

Li Pu's words immediately made Matou Kariya blush. He scratched his head sheepishly and said, "If Aoi is willing, it's not impossible..."

"Ah~ cough cough~" But after saying that Matou Kariya immediately became serious and said, "Don't interrupt. I mean, Tohsaka Tokiomi should be dead, right? Although I haven't seen his body, judging from Kirei Kotomine's behavior, he should be dead. If we follow your logic, Kirei Kotomine should keep pestering me."

"This matter won't end so easily, will it?"

Matou Kariya's words seemed to remind Li Pu that if he followed his analysis to predict the outcome, he might have dodged the first day of the month, but the fifteenth day was still waiting for him.

The framing may still be ongoing. If Kirei Kotomine doesn't want to become the murderer of his master, he must find a suitable 'murderer'.

Kirei Kotomine's choice of Matou Kariya wasn't solely for pleasure. More importantly, Matou Kariya and Tohsaka Tokiomi had a deeper conflict, making it entirely possible for him to commit murder as a form of revenge. After all, given the scale of the Holy Grail War, it's difficult to avoid situations where personal conflicts are resolved through the Holy Grail War itself.

But now Kirei Kotomine's previous plan has obviously failed, but Tohsaka Tokiomi is definitely dead.

Such attempts to frame others will surely continue.

"My advice is that you shouldn't go out unless you have something else to do." Li Pu thought for a moment and said, "Keep a low profile and keep a record of all your actions before the Holy Grail War ends. You need something to prove that you did not participate in the Holy Grail War in the future. It's best not to give Kirei Kotomine an excuse."

Matou Kariya nodded. He couldn't think of any better solutions himself, so this was probably the only option he could come up with.

"Oh, right," Matou Kariya finally voiced his biggest worry, "What if Kirei Kotomine announces that I killed Matou Kariya? I personally wouldn't mind, but what if Aoi thinks so too..."

"Want to take over..." Li Pu scoffed, "If you want to shut Kirei Kotomine up completely, the best way is to kill him."

"If he doesn't want to fool the church with that kind of suicide where he was shot sixteen times, he'll probably continue to find someone else to shift the blame."

"As for you," Li Pu paused, thought for a moment, and said, "It's best not to plan that far ahead yet, and to clear yourself of all responsibility first. Kirei Kotomine, even if he doesn't shift the blame to you, he might shift it to someone else."

"Take Kiritsugu Emiya for example. He's a man who will stop at nothing to achieve his goals. It's said that he killed Tohsaka Tokiomi."

"It is also credible."

Li Pu adjusted his clothes and said, "If you don't have any other questions, I'd like to take a shower first."

It really doesn't feel good to crawl out of the sea.

Taking a shower feels so relaxing.

Maybe this matter will just pass like this, right? Right? All I need to do now is survive until the Holy Grail War is over, right? That's probably how it is.

At least that's what Li Pu thinks.

After taking a shower and then sleeping, everything seemed both peaceful and bustling the next day. Peaceful was my daily life, while bustling was Fuyuki City.

When I came out of the room, I didn't see Sakura or Matou Kariya. I guessed that Matou Kariya must have taken Sakura to school.

Sakura should be in school at her age, no matter what.

Having withdrawn from the Holy Grail War, everything seemed to quiet down instantly. He no longer needed to scheme against anyone, nor did he need to be wary of anyone, nor did he need to live in constant fear of being outmaneuvered by someone.

Such days seem like a luxury now.

Since it was such a luxurious and peaceful day, Li Pu decided to go for a stroll. She hadn't really explored the streets of Fuyuki City properly since arriving.

I'll also buy myself some clothes while I'm there, which might include women's clothing.

There's no way around it, because she'll be switching to other characters frequently, so you have to prepare a little bit of her own. Belldandy also has the ability to change clothes in a second, something other characters don't have.

Walking down the street, watching the bustling crowds coming and going.

"Ah, if only there were no Holy Grail War," Li Pu sighed.

If Fuyuki City is to say it is lucky, it is absolutely lucky. The Earth Vein bring not only immense, almost inexhaustible power, but also nourishment to all things.

While ordinary people might not feel the benefits of the Earth Vein, Li Pu, as Goddess —or at least someone with Goddess status—felt them very strongly. From a purely objective perspective, the best things about Fuyuki City were the blue skies, white clouds, and the azure sea, along with its abundant flora, fauna, and fisheries.

And all of this is, of course, inseparable from the Earth Vein.

Fuyuki City was also unfortunate because of that vast, almost inexhaustible Earth Vein, which was also a favorite place for Magecraft. The Three Founding Families of the Holy Grail War either established themselves here or set up a branch mine here.

All they brought here was disaster.

The Holy Grail War is said to be conducted in secrecy, but the Church never seems to actively screen those eligible to participate. Leaving aside the notorious Caster duo, Kiritsugu blew up a hotel in his attempt to kill Lancer's Holy Grail War. Although he did evacuate the building's residents beforehand using Master fire alarm.

But what they did could truly be described as an act of terrorism.

As for Golden Flash, if Li Pu remembers correctly, he seems to drain people's life force in order to maintain his magic or something. And he even drained a child to death.

More importantly, he wasn't the only one doing this.

Therefore, without the Holy Grail War, Fuyuki City would truly be a place with abundant tourism resources and natural beauty, making it a very suitable place for people to live.

But what can you do when the Holy Grail War is happening here?

The Holy Grail War has made this a place fraught with misfortune.

In the near future, an even more devastating disaster awaits the people of Fuyuki City.

Walking down the street, looking east and west, trying to find clothes that suited him. After walking for a while, Li Pu suddenly noticed a light emerging from the crowd... oh no, it was a familiar figure.

Blanch!

Li Pu immediately turned around and prepared to leave, but the other person seemed to have noticed him as well.

"You mongrel are still alive."
