Artoria: Kiritsugu's Mouth Is Full of Lies!

They complained about the love story that everyone found boring; they found the exciting red-blue battle in the middle boring; they were unfazed by the scary scenes when the Grandpa Bug appeared and gave his explanation, and one of them even ate two extra rice balls.

However, after Shinji Matou and Rider were defeated by Saber in one move, they finally saw their own source of joy.

"Doesn't that make me look incredibly weak?!"

On the screen, Shinji Matou screamed hysterically at Shirou Emiya.

"Ha ha!"

At the Matou Residence, several girls clapped and laughed as they watched Shinji's impotent rage on the screen.

"This is it, I've been waiting for it for so long."

Artoria stopped eating her snacks and stared intently at the screen with shining eyes.

"When I was on set, I felt this scene would be very interesting, and the final product certainly didn't disappoint me."

Medusa pushed up her glasses and a satisfied smile curled at the corners of her lips.

Instead, Sakura sighed deeply, "What a pity~ I can no longer see my brother with that expression in real life. Even if I tricked him badly now, he wouldn't get this angry."

"After all, they are the Director of the production crew and the company boss; they need to maintain their authority in front of their employees."

At this point, Sakura pouted, "This expression is perfect for my brother, especially the way he stomps his feet. I never get tired of seeing it."

Artoria nodded. "Sakura, I understand you. Your Master, usually so confident, shows this kind of resentful expression when you fail. That's what they call 'gap moe,' isn't it?"

A bead of cold sweat trickled down Sakura's temple. "Miss Artoria... I feel like we're not on the same wavelength."

"What a pity, it was only for such a brief moment."

Seeing that the scene had switched to Shirou leading Mitsuri to the church, Shinji had temporarily left the story behind, Artoria sighed with regret.

Medusa tilted her head. "Isn't this a DVD? It can be replayed, right?"

Smack

Artoria snapped her fingers, "Yes, that's it!"

"Sister Rider, you're so smart!"

Sakura even grabbed the remote control from the coffee table first and pressed the rewind button.

"Doesn't that make me look incredibly weak?!"

"Doesn't that make me look incredibly weak?!"

"This is not..."

Under Sakura's control, Shinji on the screen repeated his lines over and over again like a broken record.

"My brother's exasperated state is so funny. This must be the Kotomine is looking for~~"

Sakura, her face flushed with excitement, licked her lips.

"Sweet!"

Chapter 142 Artoria: Kiritsugu's mouth is a lying devil!

"Hahaha! Shinji, you really do look great as a clown!"

Although not as outrageous as Sakura and her two friends, Shinji's mishaps were still very popular with the boys.

Gilgamesh, the King who's been either getting humiliated or on his way to getting humiliated lately, laughed until tears streamed down his face when he saw Shinji letting out a hysterical roar on TV.

"That's fantastic! This is exactly the feeling I've been waiting for! This is the plot I've been waiting for!"

Gilgamesh gripped the sofa with both hands, his red eyes wide open.

"Well, it's just so-so..."

Shinji was interrupted by Red A before he could finish speaking.

"Shinji, you could say this is a natural performance, right?" Red A teased. "The impotent rage of someone without talent... you really nailed it."

Shinji seemed not to hear him, picked up a can of cola and started drinking it by himself.

Lancelot nodded and said, "Master, this is your retribution for toying with women. You should be more faithful."

[What necessary connection does this have with being a womanizer? Besides, you have no right to criticize me for being a womanizer, do you?]

Seeing everyone cheering, Cú Chulainn joined in with a laugh, "This is indeed a classic recitation. I think we should take a screenshot and hang it on the company wall for all employees to admire."

Should I hang your dog at the company entrance and put up a banner that says, "[Cú Chulainn and dogs not allowed!]"?

Diarmuid didn't say a word from beginning to end, but his gaze and undisguised smile gave him away.

[Laugh, laugh. You'll have your day to cry later.]

After Super 8 is released, Shinji is already planning to send Diarmuid to other film crews for training. He will then instruct the Director of those other crews to discipline him strictly.

Finally, the kind-hearted Shirou spoke up and said something fair, "It seems everyone has been suffering under Shinji for a long time."

It's clear that even the kindest person has an unconsciously cunning side.

Shinji had initially intended to remain silent and play the expert, finally couldn't hold back any longer. "As a Director, my job is to please the public. If playing a comedic role can bring joy to everyone, I don't mind doing it~"

"Hey, Shinji. Could you at least soften your tone when you say that? At least turn up the corners of your mouth a little! Hahahaha!"

These guys kept laughing, they never stopped!

Shinji's eyebrows twitched twice. He desperately suppressed the urge to curse and tried his best to appear calm.

Although Shinji had already guessed before the show aired that these people would definitely cause some trouble.

Isn't there a saying that goes like this?

If a person doesn't hate their boss, it only proves that they aren't working their best.

Shinji was actually quite satisfied with how much the Heroic Spirit hated him.

However, Second Master really didn't expect that these people were taking his embarrassment far too seriously.

[Is it because I'm usually too outstanding that these people are jealous?]

Shinji made a narcissistic remark.

"Come on, let's see it one more time. I will etch Shinji's disgraceful behavior deep into my mind."

Gilgamesh seemed to feel that watching it only once was not enough, and he prepared to go back and watch it a second time.

Shinji quickly stopped him, saying, "Don't do such a pointless thing. Are you just wasting your time watching a completely meaningless scene repeatedly?"

"Isn't this great? Watch Shinji get his comeuppance," Gilgamesh sneered.

Shinji scoffed, "I don't think so at all."

"Master, you don't want to go home so early, do you?" Enkidu said gently. "Rewatching is a good opportunity to buy time."

"No way! You're just wasting time!"

"Tsk tsk, your voice is so gentle, but Master, you're actually a grumpy old man."

"Cú Chulainn, do you no longer want your Lead Actor?"

"Please, Master, do not do that!!"

"You little dog is just a little dog, aren't you? You've really thrown away all heroic dignity for a mere Lead Actor role. Enkidu, give me the remote control."

"Gil, here."

"Ah, Enkidu, don't use the Chains of Heaven! They're already entangled in my hands!"

"Very well, Gilgamesh, die! Master Li, it's you I've chosen!"

"Idiot, don't do that! You've spilled the cola!!"

"What true peace."

Shirou didn't get involved at all, but calmly observed everything from the sidelines.

He was afraid that if he interrupted, the group would start replaying the scene of him being chopped to pieces by Uncle Hai.

[Speaking of which, Shinji portrayed himself in the story as someone who cared deeply about the Matou Family heir and was also very interested in Magecraft.]

[But in reality, he already has both of these things readily available to him; perhaps this is the Versailles literature that Shinji was referring to?]

Watching Shinji playfully interacting with the Servant, Shirou couldn't help but have this thought in his mind.

◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆

"Shinji Matou's sacrifice was truly immense."

Inside the Magecraft club, a young female Magecraft secretly wiped away non-existent tears from the corners of her eyes and said sadly.

"He's clearly a Magecraft genius, yet he's given himself this kind of role in the story. I've always felt that Mr. Matou should be the protagonist."

"Mr. Matou would never do something so pointless," Azu replied seriously. "His purpose in making movies is to better promote Magecraft, not to make money."

"I heard that Mr. Matou doesn't have much savings; he's invested it all in the construction of his film and television company."

"Really?"

Shibamatsu asked curiously.

Azu nodded, and then told the young Magecraft present what Touko had told her earlier.

"Shinji Matou has three main reasons for making films."

"Firstly, Mr. Matou hoped that those Magecraft at the bottom of the ladder could support themselves with their Magecraft skills and continuously improve their Magecraft in their work."

"Secondly, Mr. Matou's aim was to break the existing monopoly of the Aristocratic Faction in the Mage world and to fight for more say for ordinary Magecraft."

"Thirdly, Mr. Matou wanted to broaden everyone's horizons, to stop pursuing those illogical, nonsensical theories written by the Aristocratic Faction for their own rule. Practice makes perfect, and what everyone needs to explore the root causes is a spirit of adventure."

The above three points are all high-sounding nonsense that Shinji used to fool Touko, but under Azu's dissemination and preaching, these young Magecraft actually listened with great enthusiasm.

They all wished they could immediately follow Shinji Matou to conquer the world.

Shibamatsu even stood on the sofa, clenched his fists with fervor, and loudly swore. "To restore the glory of Magecraft is our inescapable duty!"

Then, he quickly sat down. "But before that, let's watch HF first."

"Hey, Shibamatsu!" *N

The crowd roared in unison, but no one stood up; instead, they kept their attention back on the television screen.

The world is vast, but watching movies is the most important thing right now.

Everyone's partying all night, isn't it all just to watch movies?

Having finally endured the somewhat boring beginnings of the campus romance story, and with the plot reaching its most exciting point, no one was allowed to disturb their viewing.

Actually, although the opening school scenes of HF are very long, in terms of plot progression, the branching points in HF come earlier than in the movie version (Fate Route) and the TV series version (UBW route).

Originally, Shirou Emiya should have slept soundly until dawn after being defeated by Berserker, but in the Heaven's Feel route, he only lay down for a short while before getting up.

Then, on the way home, they encountered Rider and Shinji, and Rider was quickly eliminated.

"Rider is such a tragic character," Shibamatsu complained. "Not only did he leave the game earlier in each of the three versions, but his deaths were also increasingly frustrating."

Azu nodded. "I originally thought that since the heroine of Heaven's Feel is Matou Sakura, this Matou Family Servant would have more screen time, but it turns out she left the scene much more casually."

At this point, Azu glanced at the cover of the HF disc box. In this main visual, Medusa was prominently positioned below the heroine, Sakura.

"They took such a prominent spot, and then they left so hastily," Azu muttered to herself. "What if someone bought the DVD because of that big-breasted woman in the Bodysuit? Wouldn't they be yelling 'Refund!'?"

"There probably isn't anyone like that... I guess not."

Shibamatsu couldn't be entirely sure for the time being.

Because it was an OV release, the trailer for HF was very simple, and Shibamatsu couldn't confirm Medusa would appear in any more scenes.

On the screen, the story of HF continues.

After defeating Shinji, Shirou picked up Mitsuri and took her to the church, where he discussed his adoptive father Kiritsugu Emiya, with Kirei Kotomine.

"Finally!! We've finally gotten to discussing Kiritsugu Emiya, the protagonist of the prequel!"

Upon seeing this, Shibamatsu, a staunch Fate/Zero fan, was so excited he almost cried.

Since the FSN movie was released earlier than Fate/Zero, it's understandable that it mentions Kiritsugu Emiya less.
