"It's justice..."
"So, if the person who was killed is a villain, and killing him could save ten thousand people, would you do it?"
"I will!" Rentaro answered without hesitation.
"Hmph, Rentaro, you're still too young." Gil scoffed. "So, according to what you say, killing this person to save ten thousand people is justice, but killing is evil, then this is an equation—killing = evil, evil = justice, justice = killing?"
Rentaro was speechless.
"Rentaro... do you know... you're different from the so-called partner of justice I know." The partner of justice Gil was referring to was Kiritsugu Emiya.
"You're the kind of person who would sacrifice yourself for the greater good, but you'd hesitate when it comes to the people around you. People like you usually don't live long."
"No way!" Rentaro slammed his hands on the table and shouted.
“Haha, let’s stop here for now… Do you want to know the final story of that righteous hero?” Jill asked.
“…Tell me about it,” Rentaro nodded.
"He was a dreamer who hoped for world peace, but in practice he was a cold and ruthless realist," Gilles said, recounting the story of Kiritsugu Emiya.
He simply omitted the story of the so-called "Holy Grail War".
"What did he ultimately choose?"
When Gilles recounted the choice between his wife and daughter and the world, Gilles paused, prompting Rentaro to ask a question.
"Rentaro, if it were you, what would you choose?" Gil asked in return.
"This..." Rentaro paused.
“…You hesitated, Rentaro.” Gil pointed out Rentaro’s hesitation incisively.
“I told you, you’re the kind of person who would sacrifice yourself without hesitation for the greater good.” Gil slowly took out tea leaves from under his desk, brewed a cup of tea and handed it to Rentaro, then brewed one for himself as well. “People like you are destined to die young.”
"...He chose his wife and daughter...is that right?" Rentaro asked.
“…Heh…that man, in the end, strangled his own wife and daughter to death with his own hands.” Jill took a sip of tea and said slowly.
"..." Rentaro stared at the tea leaves in the teacup in front of him and fell silent.
“Rentaro, you must remember one thing.” Gil took a sip of tea. “In this Homra, everyone is family and friends.”
There is no standard for what is considered "righteousness."
Looking into Rentaro's somewhat bewildered eyes, Gil said, "You need to know that fighting for your family is actually more reliable than so-called righteousness."
Upholding justice? In fact, there is no standard for justice. The opposite of justice may be another kind of justice.
In my opinion, that old bastard from the Tendo family is evil because he wants to oppress the children behind me.
To the old bastard of the Tendo family, and even to most of the residents of Tokyo, I am evil because I protected those children who were called "monsters."
Gil patted Rentaro on the shoulder. "Think it over carefully, lad."
Gil's words made Rentaro fall into deep thought.
The initial confusion and anger have disappeared, leaving only bewilderment and reflection.
“…Idiot, anyway, I’m not asking you to change your mind.” Jill sighed, then said, “You just need to know that we have family behind us, that’s enough.”
"...Yes, I'll go back now." Rentaro nodded and left the room.
"Phew... This is really tiring... lecturing such an idiot." Jill sighed.
“Mr. Satomi is actually just as gentle as Gillespie, but he is bound by so-called righteousness,” Xia Shi said.
"Yes... By the way, Xia Shi, about this mission..."
"Does Brother Jill want me not to follow?"
"No, but you will follow my instructions the whole time."
As Jill spoke, she organized the documents in her hand and placed them on the table. "This mission is very dangerous... and a serious atmosphere is not suitable for you children."
Xia Shi puffed out his cheeks slightly, revealing a look of dissatisfaction.
Jill concluded, "That bastard definitely doesn't have any good intentions coming to the D-city area this time. We need to be careful."
Jill dialed the phone, "Moshi Moshi... Xingliu? Keep a close eye on that bastard Qi Wuzongxuan. Notify me immediately if he does anything suspicious. Hmm... okay, no problem, then that's settled."
"Qi Wuzong Xuan?" Xia Shi's eyes showed a thoughtful look. "Why is Brother Jill wary of him?"
“That bastard is a complete schemer,” Jill commented decisively. “I absolutely hate that type of guy. Xia Shi, you know, when I first started Homra, that bastard somehow got my number and called me with a request.”
"What are the requirements?" Xia Shi asked.
“He wants me to train all the children I adopted to be assassins to serve him…” A cold glint flashed in Jill’s eyes, “If given the chance, I will kill him without hesitation!”
When Jill said those words, Xia Shi felt for some reason that they might become a reality.
"...Alright, Xia Shi, that's enough for now. You must be tired today... We have a meeting the day after tomorrow, so get some rest." Jill patted Xia Shi's head. "Okay, go to sleep."
"Okay... okay, Brother Jill." Xia Shi nodded obediently and walked towards his room.
Jill watched Xia Shi leave and then stood up.
He looked at his phone, where a message was displayed.
Jill headed to the address on the message.
Chapter 105 Evaluation
Jill arrived at her destination according to the address.
"Hey, boss."
Hijikata Makoto greeted Gil.
“This time it didn’t mess up… What about that bastard?” Jill asked.
"Ah, it's not dead yet, it's over there." Hijikata Makoto pointed to a lump of something that, if made into an animation, would definitely be targeted by a Shadow Priest, Paladin, or pixelation.
"Hey, you bastard, you're still alive?" Jill sneered at Howaki Takuto in front of her.
"You...you're despicable..."
puff!
Sharp iron nails pierced through Bao Xiezhuo's abdomen.
Hearing Howaki Takuto's screams, Gil looked at Hijikata Makoto with a helpless expression, "Hijikata, you're too much..."
“Sorry, but we can’t let this trash’s words offend the king’s ears.” Hijikata Makoto tossed the nail in his hand. “Boss, leave this to me.”
“Clean it up,” Jill said, then turned and left.
"Oh dear... Is it cleaned up?" Hijikata Makoto slowly drew his katana. "Then die."
puff-
Blood splattered, and the head, its eyes wide open in death, rolled onto the floor.
Hijikata Makoto buried the body before leaving.
He still has work to do...
……
after an hour.
Training Course.
Jill kept her eyes closed.
Hijikata looked at Gil cautiously.
He held the knife in both hands, his eyes showing obvious vigilance.
“Hijikata, your steps are out of control,” Gil said.
So the earthwork began.
"Drink ah ah ah!"
"I told you, your steps are all messed up... Soul Flash - One Star!" Gil thrust out the wooden sword in his hand and struck Hijikata Makoto on the shoulder, knocking him to the floor.
“No progress…” Gil looked down at Hijikata Makoto. “It seems you’ve come to your senses.”
Jill walked to the edge of the training ground and threw all the wooden and iron knives into the Gate of Babylon.
“Don’t worry, I chose to use a wooden sword and an iron sword instead of my collection so that you wouldn’t kick the bucket,” Jill said.
Hijikata Makoto swallowed hard. "Boss, could you... let me go...?"
“No, lest you embarrass me later…” As soon as Jill finished speaking, golden ripples appeared in the space.
All the wooden and iron swords from before have reappeared.
"Don't worry, I suppressed the power I used. At most, I'll be bedridden for a couple of days after being rubbed against."
"What the hell is this about lying down for two days?! What if you get beaten up, are you going to die?!"
"You won't die, you'll probably just be bedridden for three months," Jill laughed. "So, let's start living!"
"Ohhhhh!" Hijikata Makoto chose to stand still and directly attack Gil!
“…” Gil looked at Hijikata Makoto with eyes that seemed to care for someone with intellectual disabilities.
……
the next day.
We don't need to know what happened in between; the earth was simply hung at the entrance of the commission hall once again.
23333...
So on that day, Jill also dragged Chu Xingliu and Kushina Yoru away.
On this day, Chu Xingliu and Kushina Yoru finally recalled the fear of being dominated by Jill...
……
the next day.
Jill got up very early that day.
