Can You Do That Thing?

"If I had to describe how I felt back then, let me think."

"It was as stifling as being an overworked employee in human society. You could be doing everything you could just to get by, yet if you said something costing 79 yuan was too expensive, people would question whether you were working hard enough."

"It wasn't my fault my wages weren't going up. It was the world's fault. Capital's fault. Back then, I really wanted to destroy the whole world and create a new civilization. Hahaha."

True. Damn that accursed—

Wait! Isn't this 'God Almighty' a little too dangerous?! Ritsuka Fujimaru shuddered. Who decides to destroy the world over something like that?!

His easygoing manner and the way he spoke like any ordinary person should have made him approachable. So why were the things coming out of his mouth so terrifying?!

"How nostalgic. So many years have passed since that day." Su Lin rested both arms on the long table and pressed his interlaced fingers against his forehead, his expression turning wistful.

"I was lost about my future when I saw a light pierce the barrier between dimensions."

"He failed again and again, persisting even though he knew he couldn't do it, until he finally surpassed his own limits. How should I put it? In that moment, I truly was captivated by him."

The sacred, flawless face closed its eyes, as though beholding a beautiful memory. A faint smile touched his lips, and a sliver of dawn rose over the horizon of the Divine Kingdom.

Ritsuka Fujimaru was not the only one stunned. Even the Servants standing guard around them looked shocked.

EMIYA felt something lodge in his throat.

When Kaguya Houraisan had mentioned watching the high jump, he had ignored the teasing looks from the other Servants.
