"Of course...of course! Do you want me to go and die...!?" Shinji Matou lay on the floor, looking at his trembling hands. "Without a Servant, I don't even have the means to kill. I can't be a Master anymore...I...I'm just an ordinary person now!"
"Ordinary person" is a painful word for Shinji Matou.
Originally, she would never have admitted that she was an ordinary person as mediocre as "Emiya".
But now, in order to save your life and survive, dignity and such... are worthless, right?
Shinji Matou, his right hand on his chest, looked deranged and declared righteously to Kirei Kotomine, "I'm the victim right now!! Targeting the weak, getting killed unilaterally—isn't that incredibly unfair...!!!"
Kirei Kotomine looked intently at Shinji Matou, gazing directly into his true nature and soul.
He seemed to have discovered some interesting toy. Or perhaps, a brand new seasoning, a condiment that makes pleasure even more delicious.
"You, you, you, do you have a problem with that?!" The priest in front of him remained silent, just staring at him, which hurt Shinji Matou's pride. Was he looking down on him?!
Kirei Kotomine smiled and shook his head, indicating that he had no objection.
He solemnly told Shinji Matou about his responsibilities as a supervisor and manager.
And to top it off—"You are the first to give up in this Holy Grail War. You are also the first user since the founding of this church."
These words were like a sharp dagger piercing Shinji Matou's chest; the shame and pain made his heart go numb.
"What...what did you say? Only I'm quitting? Damn it...how hateful!" Shinji Matou furiously punched and kicked the bench beside him. "This is so embarrassing! If Grandpa finds out..."
The old insect's mocking words about his own face and his disdain for him echoed in Shinji Matou's ears.
"Useless, you're just a piece of trash."
“I never expected anything from you, Shinji.”
"Shinji, aren't you mistaken about something? Are you having unrealistic expectations of yourself?"
"Aaaaaaahhhhhh—! It's all your fault!!" Shinji Matou screamed, clutching his head. "Giving me a third-rate Servant like Rider!!! That's so unfair!!"
Medusa, who possesses divine powers and a terrifying demonic eye capable of fighting Meltlilith to a standstill, was actually called a third-rate Servant by him.
With Rin Tohsaka, the Medusa in Ken's hands could probably win the Holy Grail War directly.
If Medusa had enough magical power, she could ride Pegasus ahead of time.
In the 06 version, Excalibur defeating Medusa was too dramatic. Pegasus was as fast as Achilles riding his chariot, exceeding the speed of sound, so Excalibur couldn't possibly have hit him.
32. Shinji Matou, that confident man is back!
"You mean, Rider is useless?" Kirei Kotomine raised an eyebrow.
"Yeah!! That woman was only of minimal use. I did my best, cooperated with her wholeheartedly! And she died so pathetically. All the other Servants were far more useful!!!"
Shinji Matou said confidently, "Besides, I was defeated two against one! If Rider hadn't been so useless, how could I have lost!?"
"It's all because the Servants are so weak...!! They even had the nerve to act all smug and superior in front of me, how laughable!!!"
If that mysterious woman were my Servant. If the blonde woman following Shirou Emiya were my Servant.
How could I lose!
He felt incredibly wronged and unlucky. Everyone else had cards that were more powerful than his.
He kept complaining about his bad luck.
The church echoed with Shinji Matou's twisted, resentful cries.
He was clearly the chosen one, the only one qualified to receive the Holy Grail, and the most outstanding person of all!
Rider-class Servants are all useless, aren't they?!
Kirei Kotomine's lips curled up slightly, but the smile quickly disappeared as he slowly walked towards Shinji Matou, placing his broad hand on Shinji's shoulder.
Whispers broke out.
"Hehehe! You're very lucky; a Servant just happened to become available..."
He was looking forward to seeing what kind of performance Shinji Matou would give him.

Grand Carnival World.
"Oh dear... this young man is unfamiliar with the Rider class."
"Your followers have a deep misunderstanding. However, I am indeed weak and have little strength; I am merely an ordinary person." Taigong Wang sat on the riverbank, holding a fishing rod in his hand.
Upon hearing this, Cú Chulainn and Emiya's mother both had black lines appear on their foreheads.
What a cunning old fox! You probably want everyone to be unaware of your true strength, so you can deliver a thunderous blow to any complacent enemy.
Dobrenea smiled kindly, wielding his chain hammer, and with one blow sent the head of the mammoth monster in front of him flying.
"Poor Miss Medusa, how unfortunate. How did she end up with such a complete waste? She didn't provide her servant with a single bit of magical power, and yet she has the nerve to say she did her best to cooperate?"
"Hehehe! If it weren't for you, you idiot, insisting on activating the Blood Temple at school and forcing Miss Medusa to tamper with things in the enemy's territory, how could Miss Medusa have been discovered by the enemy so quickly? She could have simply disappeared."
Qu Tingbaqin waved his feather fan, and dozens of azure flames transformed into fireballs that flew forward, directly blowing away a group of demonic beasts in front of him.
She and Dobrenenia were brushing materials within the singularity.
"Useless Rider...? Hush! You should be glad you didn't summon me! Medusa didn't even test you. But I'm different. A master who can't withstand a single blow from me is not worthy to be my lord."
Red Hare raised its powerful hoof and crushed the goblin's head with a single step.
Wielding his halberd, he charged into the monster wave composed of thousands of goblins.
"My class is also Rider. It seems I'm useless in front of this rude person. Hehe ...
Is this some kind of clown stage performance?
Alexander the Great, Queen Mary, Queen Medb, Sima Yi Reines, and Odysseus sat together.
Today is a holiday for Rider-class Servants.
The Atlantic Outer Belt.
"What a disgusting thing, a piece of shit in human skin. Killing trash like you would only dirty my hands. Even if I cut you into pieces, the fish in the sea wouldn't eat you." Kenneth looked at Shinji Matou with disgust.
It's as if I can see the foul-mouthed Dioscuroi Castor, Dioscuroi Poluks.
"The vacant Servant... could it be Gilgamesh? Hmm... the shit king and the shit brat are indeed a good match."
"Two good-for-nothings get together, get beaten to a pulp, and cry their eyes out?"
Fate/stay night, UBW timeline.
"This scumbag is actually Sakura's brother..."
"Thankfully, Sakura moved into Emiya's house a long time ago! It's all thanks to Taiga-sensei's help."
"We should have discovered Shinji Matou's true colors sooner! We should have buried him alive in the school."
night.
Shinji Matou walked down the street with a gloomy expression. He dared not go home, dared not see the old bug.
Suddenly, several kind-faced, tattooed, righteous individuals emerged from the alley, wearing punk bone spur necklaces around their necks and T-shirts with skull logos.
"Yo! Isn't this the famous genius magician—Young Master Matou Shinji?" The blond man took off his sunglasses, looked around but didn't see Medusa. "He doesn't even put Servants in his eyes. Young Master Matou Shinji is quite confident in his strength."
"Hehehe! After all, he's a genius magician who doesn't care about the lives of ordinary people." A burly, middle-aged man with a ferocious face and green hair walked out from behind the blond man.
"You...you know what's going on! What are you doing blocking my way? Get lost! I'm in a bad mood right now, don't come looking for trouble." Shinji Matou stood there, looking at the thugs in front of him with disgust. Get lost or I'll call Rider to come out and kill you.
Suddenly, a fist the size of a sandbag struck Matou Shinji directly in the face, and the middle-aged man swung a punch so hard that he knocked the young master to the ground.
Several blood-stained teeth flew through the air.
That's truly an excellent tooth extraction technique.
He stomped hard on Matou Shinji's face, the hard sole of his leather shoe rubbing against Matou Shinji's face, mud and dust directly imprinted on his face.
This series of moves completely stunned Shinji Matou.
What? What happened? Why was I beaten by an ordinary person who is nothing?
Rider... Rider, what are you doing?!
"Aaaaaah—! It hurts so much!" Shinji Matou covered his bleeding mouth, his eyes blazing with murderous intent as he glared at the middle-aged man stepping on his face. "I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you. Rider, finish them off! There are people here who want to die, send them on their way."
Several seconds passed, and Rider did not appear.
Half a minute passed, and Rider still hadn't appeared.
The air froze, and the atmosphere became quiet.
A few seconds later, "Hahahaha... Rider? How could you treat your partner like that? You thought Rider came to save you?"
Shinji Matou's words made them laugh.
"I'm so scared! Shinji Matou wants to kill me. I'm so scared I'm about to pee myself. I can't hold it in anymore."
The blond man walked directly up to Shinji Matou, unzipped his metal zipper, and a holy light flashed, indicating that he had locked onto the enemy.
Shinji Matou stared wide-eyed at the blond man, "What do you want to do?!? Rider is just..."
They haven't arrived yet... Let me go... I'll spare you... Spare you—"
The orange-yellow jet of water shot directly into Shinji Matou's mouth, silencing him as he swallowed the words he was about to say.
"Phew...that feels good. Young master, tell me quickly, is it salty or sweet? Do I have diabetes?"
The blond man wore an expression of utter satisfaction; indeed, relieving himself was the most pleasurable thing.
The green-haired middle-aged man licked his lips and dragged Matou Shinji into a dark alleyway. "Young Master, I forgot to tell you. I actually like cute boys, just like arrogant rich young masters like you!"
In the dark alley, there were sounds of zippers, screams, and hissing noises. A train was passing by on the nearby tracks, its high-speed piston engine providing it with powerful thrust.
Let's play a song for Shinji Matou – Chrysanthemums in Full Bloom.
Chrysanthemums wither and fall, leaving only sorrow on the ground; your smile has faded...

Why become a partner of justice? This is the question Saber poses.
Unable to answer, Shirou Emiya fled back to his room and leaned against the door.
No, the answer is yes.
I know very well why I want to become a partner of justice.
But I couldn't bring myself to say it.
Subconsciously, one will restrain oneself.
"—The reason for becoming a messenger of justice."
As a child, he single-mindedly wanted to become Kiritsugu. His yearning to be a messenger of justice stemmed from—yes, wasn't it because he had an unattainable ideal?
The purgatory of ten years ago was the beginning.
Since I was once saved, I should be able to save everything.
Emiya Shirou stared at the Holy Grail, which was spewing black mud in mid-air.
However, as he gets older, Shirou Emiya is getting further and further away from his dream.
From a child who is ignorant, doesn't understand limits, and doesn't know the complexity of the world.
They became high school students who were exposed to a vast amount of knowledge.
Through this knowledge, Shirou Emiya came to understand that there are limits to what a person can do.
There is a limit to the number of people a person can save.
What cannot be saved is simply beyond saving. Miracles are not something we can create ourselves...
Knowing that his talent for magic was poor and that no matter how much he practiced, he would still be bad, Shirou Emiya still did not give up training.
So be it if I fail. The reason I'm training is just to prepare.
He still firmly believes that when he grows up, he will be able to save others like Kiritsugu.
It can bring a smile to someone who is in despair.
But all he gained was the rationality to judge that ideals are ultimately just ideals. All he could do was clean up the mess. Even knowing it was a waste of effort, he still tried his best.
