Emiya Juxian, Emiya Kiritsu, Emiya Shirou.

At first glance, the three characters don't seem to have much to do with each other. Although Emiya Kiritsugu is the father of Emiya Kiritsugu, and Emiya Kiritsugu is the adoptive father of Emiya Shirou, Emiya Kiritsugu did not inherit Emiya Kiritsugu's magic research, and there is not even a blood relationship between Emiya Kiritsugu and Emiya Shirou.

However, the connection between them is very close from the perspective of fate:

the words and deeds of Emiya Kiritsugu (the father) shatter the heart of Emiya Kiritsugu (the son), and the heart medicine that Emiya Kiritsugu learns from him is not a cure for his heart disease, but rather leads him to despair.

The firmer the ideal, the more killings and sacrifices accumulate, and it is impossible to turn back. - Because once you give up, it means that all the previous sacrifices are in vain, so you can only go to the end knowing that the road ahead is a dead end.

Along with the shattering of Emiya Kiritsugu's ideals, it was the rebirth of Emiya Shirou's ideals. What awaits Emiya Shirou in the future may be another disillusionment like the reincarnation of fate, or breaking fate and ushering in a new life.

Due to space limitations, this article will only cover the first part - the upheaval of the childhood of the self-defense palace Kiritsugu to the Fourth Holy Grail War.

In order to make it easier for readers to sort out the storyline, this article will narrate the plot in chronological order and avoid flashbacks.

1. Designated to avoid seals, Experimenting to solve the problem of longevity, Emiya Kishiken brings his son Emiya Kiritsugu to the island

, and like other traditional magicians, the ultimate goal of Emiya's magic research is to reach the roots. Each magician family wants to use their own unique methods to pursue the roots, and the Emiya family also hopes to rely on their own unique family magic to reach the roots.

The family magic that the Emiya family has studied for generations is the "magic of time manipulation", which is to speed up or stop the flow of time in an inherent barrier that is not interfered with by the world. For example, control the flow of time so that the flower does not grow or wither again.

Although the Weigong family has been passed down to Weigong Juxian, it is only the fourth generation, but Juxian is a genius. Emiya has studied the magic of his family to the letter, and is able to speed up the flow of time infinitely in a very small barrier that reduces resistance to almost zero. Theoretically, this could have allowed the Emiya family to observe the end of the universe and reach the root of what should have appeared later.

While theoretically a good chance, it will still be hundreds of years before the experiment is completed. Before that, the Emiya family first wanted to solve the limitations of human lifespan. In order to solve the problem of longevity, he began to grope for the means of death apostle in desperation. Emiya's plan was to work out a measure of longevity, at least before Emiya Kiritsugu's (son's) generation.

Emiya Juxian has valuable research results, but he has been separated from the Magic Association for secret research, so he is listed as a designated object of the seal. IN ORDER TO EVADE THE SEAL DESIGNATION AND STUDY THE "DEAD APOSTLES" WITH PEACE OF MIND, JU HYUN AND HIS SON KIRITSUGU MOVED TO A REMOTE ISLAND, ARIMAGO (ALIMANGO (BIG DRAGONCRAB) ISLAND.

There is a fishing village of more than 300 families on the island. The name of the island originated from a girl who stole a tribute to the god of the sea because she had no food for her sick mother, and was punished by the god of the sea and turned into a crab. The shrine dedicated to the god of the sea is at the top of the mountain, and the Kiritsugu family lives nearby.

The name "Kiritsugu" is quite difficult for the locals to pronounce. A girl on the island who is four years older than Kiritsugu - Xia Lei is simply called Kiritsugu Kelly, so the villagers are also Xi to call Kiritsugu Kelly. Kiritsugu also felt that instead of being called by a strange name like "Kelly Tegu", it would be more intimate to call it "Kelly".

In the first few weeks of moving here, Kiritsugu felt bored every day, but he gradually fell in love with the southern scenery of the island. A year later, everyone on the island greeted Kiritsugu very cordially when they saw him. Even the kids in the fishing village who started to fight with Kiritsugu as soon as they met him are now playing pranks on others with him.

A year later, Kiritsugu was able to mingle with the local children

, and the girl on the island, Xia Lei, became Juxian's assistant at work. Juxian praised Xia Lei for her extraordinary mind and talent, which is very rare for the mysterious Juxian. Father Simon has always been unaccustomed to Juxian's behavior, and often preaches to Xia Lei, claiming that Xia Lei will be killed by demons sooner or later if she continues like this. Father Simon gave Xia Lei a silver dagger, claiming that it was a very effective talisman and that she must carry it with you. Xia Lei placed the dagger on her belt.

When he found out that his most beloved father (Juxian) actually valued his assistant (Xia Lei) more than himself (Kiritsu) as a son, Kiritsugu's heart was very unsettled, and he even became hostile to Xia Lei. But Xia Lei's cheerful personality and gentle attitude soon untied the knot in Kiritsugu's heart. Xia Lei respects Kiritsugu's father as much as her own father, and takes care of Kiritsugu like her own brother. For Kiritsugu, who has no female relatives, "older sister" is much more than the literal meaning it contains. This feeling of family was not obvious at first. But in the recent period a year later, Kiritsugu's heart throbbed wonderfully.

Juxian never goes out of the house, and Kiritsugu has to help Xia Lei go shopping every time, so they will take a ride to the village together basically every day. And this time, as always, Xia Lei chatted with Kiritsugu (Kelly) while driving, and talked about Juxian.

As soon as they talk about Juxian, Xia Lei suddenly becomes mature and rational.

Xia Lei: "Kelly (Kiritsugu), what kind of person do you want to be when you grow up, and if you inherit your father's research, how are you going to use it?"

Kiritsu: "...... Huh?".

The young man who was thinking about it was pulled back to reality by Xia Lei's question.

Xia Lei: "The power to change the world." Sooner or later you will get it.

Kiritsugu: "......"

Kiritsugu fully understands that his father's (Juxian) research has the potential to save the world, but Kiritsugu is reluctant to say it himself, especially in front of Xia Lei. Kiritsugu doesn't want to be told that his dreams are naïve, especially not being said to be naïve by Xia Lei.

Kiritsugu: "...... This should be kept secret.

Xia Lei: (smiles meaningfully) "Huh?".

Xia Lei: "So, what Kelly (Kiritsu) is going to do when he grows up, I'll use my own eyes to confirm it myself." I'll be there for you until I get an answer, how?".

Kiritsugu: (looks away with some embarrassment) "...... Whatever you want.

But even so, the smile of a girl (Xia Lei), who looks like her sister, is still too dazzling for a teenager (Kelly/Kiritsugu).

2. Emiya's experiments infect the entire village into vampires, the Templar Church and the Magic Society intervene, and the bounty hunter Natalia appears and

Xia Lei disappears.

Kiritsugu searched every corner of the village during the day and did not give up, and finally found her in the chicken coop outside the village at night. What Kiritsugu saw was the remains of the leftover chickens, and Natsulei, who was constantly trembling and sobbing in the depths of the chicken coop.

Kiritsugu found Xia Lei in the chicken coop outside the village

, her skin was like white ash, and the protruding blue-black veins cut her cheeks to pieces.

With a pained expression, Xia Lei threw the silver dagger at Kiritsugu's feet and begged Kiritsugu to kill her. Kiritsugu (Kelly) shook his head and stepped back.

Kiritsugu: "I can't do it. It doesn't matter what you become. Xia Lei is Xia Lei. We made an appointment to be together forever, the most important family member - no, someone more important than that.

Xia Lei pleaded repeatedly, but Kiritsugu never agreed. Xia Lei's voice became frenzied, and she let out a gasp like a hungry beast, about to turn into a monster that could not control herself. In order to end herself, Xia Lei suddenly opened her mouth and bit her wrist, and blood spurted out.

Xia Lei's persistent pleading voice drowned out Kiritsugu's screams, and Kiritsugu ran out of the chicken coop. Kiritsugu didn't know exactly what was going on, and he didn't want to know what was going on, just prayed for someone to save Xia Lei and save them all.

The island is in turmoil, and the whole village is infected and becomes a vampire. The Templar Church and the Magic Society intervene. The Templar Church wanted to eradicate heretics, and they eliminated all the suspects without checking which villagers had been blood-sucked and might have become vampires. The Magic Society wants to monopolize the secrets of the vampires, so they will also kill all those involved.

Bounty Hunter of the Templar Church

Magic Society - Natalia Kaminsky is the equivalent of a salesman for the Magic Society, responsible for finding secrets of interest to the Society, protecting them, and selling them to the Society. However, with the Templar Church and the Magic Society already intervening in the island's affairs, the secret can no longer be sold.
