Chapter 309 The First Real "Female" Protagonist
🕑 Added 2025-04-24 15:57:21 +0000 UTCThere was no surprise at all that Kiritsugu rejected Nanaya. If it was Nanaya herself, she would probably give the same answer.
Even if he used his butt to think, Kiritsugu knew that the role he was going to play was the [Emiya Kiritsugu] who died young.
Wouldn't it be uncomfortable for me to act on my own?
I'm tired of living, do I have to make myself unlucky?
So of course Kiritsugu refused immediately and didn't give Nanaya any chance at all.
But Nanaya was not disappointed. His purpose was not to make Kiritsugu agree on the spot. He just wanted to give Kiritsugu a signal to let him know that this was happening.
Whether Kiritsugu will agree or not depends on the subsequent communication between Nanaya and Kiritsugu.
Judging from Kiritsugu's attitude, this communication process will probably not be very pleasant.
But regardless of whether Kiritsugu agrees or not, the FZ project plan must be moved forward.
As for the role of [Emiya Kiritsugu] being played by Kiritsugu, this condition is actually not necessary.
I have said it before, no actor is indispensable.
This is true even for Depp's Captain Jack Sparrow and Downey's Iron Man.
Of course, whether the audience will buy into such a popular role after the actor is replaced is another matter.
Therefore, unless the negotiations really fail, the actors playing the main characters in a series generally will not be replaced.
However, the character [Emiya Kiritsugu] is not included in it at all. On the one hand, Kiritsugu has not officially appeared in the current FSN version.
Even the few times I recalled the scenes, they only existed in the form of blurry PPT images.
If Lily said that she didn't want to play Artoria, then Nanaya would still try to coax her with all kinds of persuasion.
But if Kiritsugu doesn't want to act, Nanaya won't insist.
At worst, we can just change an actor.
However, just because Kiritsugu himself is not interested doesn't mean that others are not interested.
Especially Irisviel and Illya, they were both interested in Nanaya's proposal.
"Oni-chan, is the character you are talking about Kiritsugu from FSN?"
Illya naturally took Nanaya's arm and said in a coquettish tone: "Are you going to let our old man perform?"
"Old man..."
Kiritsugu suddenly felt a stomachache.
[Old man? Illya actually called me old man? Illya, is daddy very old? ]
"It sounds interesting." Irisviel tilted her head and said, "It will be great if our couple can act~"
[Wait a minute, Ellie, you don't deny the title of old man? Do you also think I'm old? ]
Unfortunately, Kiritsugu's OS was not conveyed to the two people he loved most.
Irisviel and Illya began to enthusiastically discuss various hypotheses about Kiritsugu becoming an actor, completely leaving Kiritsugu aside.
"Tsk. Ellie, I'm going over there first."
Kiritsugu said this and turned to leave.
"Mo~ You are so old, but you are still like a child."
Alice complained, and she turned back to Nanaya and said, "I'm sorry, little Nanaya. I'll leave Illya in your care. I'll go and do some ideological work on our old man."
Kiritsugu in the distance paused for a moment, then took bigger steps away from the banquet hall.
"Wait a moment, old man."
Irisviel chased after him helplessly.
“…”
Nanaya never figured out till the end whether this lady was truly natural or a sinister person.
"Well, Nanaya, you take your time chatting with the beauty. I'm going to look for my target. There should be a heroine here who is willing to play the leading role in my movie."
Shiki Matsuno patted Nanaya's shoulder and disappeared into the crowd.
"Hey, hey..."
The meaningful look at the end of Shiki made Nanaya feel that this kid was just looking for a fight.
Illya nodded and said, "He's a very perceptive boy. He will definitely have a bright future."
"You should know who he belongs to, right?" Nanaya asked with a dark face.
"Who would remember this kind of extra?"
Illya covered her mouth and giggled. It seemed that she had not forgotten about Shiki, but said so on purpose.
“You…”
Before Nanaya could finish his sigh, Illya hugged his arm.
"Come on, Oni-chan~ We haven't been together for a long time."
Illya said excitedly, dragging Nanaya towards the crowd.
"Illya, please be careful. I've been closely watched by reporters recently..."
Nanaya could already hear the reporters' excited breathing and the sound of shutter clicks, and he didn't want Illya to be involved in this scandal.
"So, Oni-chan, have you ever thought about why?"
Illya looked back at Nanaya affectionately, without a trace of smile in her red eyes.
"ha……"
Nanaya stopped instinctively, he felt cold all over.
"So, why does Oni-chan clearly know that she is being closely watched by the paparazzi?"
Illya did not let Nanaya go, she took the initiative to come forward.
"As expected, Oni-chan is actually very clear about this, right?"
Nanaya pretended to be calm and replied: "Ahem, that's all nonsense from unscrupulous reporters. You should know that nothing happened between me, Ori and Ryan, right?"
Illya said proudly: "It has nothing to do with them. Oni-chan is not afraid of the paparazzi, but Rin, right?"
"How did you..."
Nanaya's whole body froze.
Illya's lips curled up: "As expected, what Liz-sister said is absolutely right. Oni-chan is really in love with Rin~"
“…”
Nanaya didn't say anything, but Illya became more and more excited.
"So what's so good about Rin's flat body? Obviously, the current Illya is more..."
Nanaya reminded helplessly: "Hey! Madam Irisviel told you to be more ladylike."
"Whether Illya is a lady or not depends on Oni-chan's performance~" Illya showed a devilish smile, "As long as Oni-chan cooperates, Illya will behave like a lady."
Suddenly, Illya's tone changed. She curled her lips and warned: "But if Oni-chan doesn't cooperate, then Illya will say that Oni-chan is Illya's fiancée."
[You are so cruel! But are you sure he is not your fiancé? ]
Perhaps reading Nanaya's expression, Illya said proudly with her nose puffed out: "It doesn't matter. Marrying into a wife's family is a tradition of our Einzbern family."
“…”
Illya understood Nanaya's silence as her consent, and she happily dragged Nanaya towards the crowd - to the Trier group.
"Long time no see~"
Illya greeted everyone and rubbed the arm of Nanaya, whom she was hugging.
"Tsk"*N
This act of asserting sovereignty naturally aroused dissatisfaction among all Trier members.
"Illya-chan, long time no see."
Rin frowned coldly and said meaningfully, "You'd better be careful. This guy has been involved in a scandal recently."
"It doesn't matter if it's just a small matter. After all, Oni-chan is Illya's Oni-chan. Right, Oni-chan~"
"Ah... After all, Illya is like a younger sister to me."
Nanaya gritted his teeth and reached out his hand, rubbing Illya's head like he was petting a cat.
Obviously, sister Nanaya said this to Rin, in order to show Rin that she was not interested in Illya.
[The feel is just as good, but the posture is a bit awkward? ]
In the past, Illya was only half his height, and Nanaya’s posture of stroking her head was very natural at that time.
But now Illya's height has grown to 158cm, and Nanaya is not quite used to the height of her head.
Although as a woman, Illya's height is still relatively short even among Orientals, but compared to the little loli in the past, she is obviously much taller.
Perhaps noticing this situation, Illya naturally lowered her body and put her head at a suitable height for Nanaya to touch.
"Envious……"
Yumi looked at Illya enviously as she enjoyed Nanaya's touch.
[I also want to be touched by my big brother and have him say something like “Yumi-chan, you’re working hard.”]
Thinking of this, Yumi looked at Illya with resentful eyes.
[Big Brother belongs to everyone. How can Illya monopolize him? Is it because you gave Big Brother money in the first place? ]
"At least... compete fairly!"
Yumi blushed when she realized that she had said what she was thinking. She quickly looked around and when she found that no one was noticing her, she immediately lowered her head shyly.
[Damn it, what am I thinking about! But...]
Yumi looked at Nanaya secretly with her eyes, and her little head began to imagine the scene of her and Illya being touched on the head by Nanaya on both sides.
“Hmm…”
Yumi bit her lip. She was struggling over whether or not to remove Illya from the picture. She always felt that she was a bit of an eyesore.
Perhaps because she is in puberty, Yumi has become very imaginative.
It’s just that the adults around her didn’t care about her, or maybe Yumi was just too ordinary. Whether it was her family or her relationship with Nanaya, there was no reason for others to pay attention to her.
In terms of threat, Yumi, the little white rabbit, is even more harmless than the purple-haired female passerby.
At this time, the attention of other people in Trier is on Illya, while Illya's attention is on Rin.
"Hmm~ As expected of Oni-chan, this is so comfortable."
After saying that, Illya glanced at Rin provocatively.
"Can……"
Rin held her breath, and said with the cross on her head: "Then you must enjoy it, after all, this is the privilege of a sister."
"So someone doesn't even have the qualifications to enjoy it!" Illya said with a pout, staring at Rin unconvinced.
"It doesn't matter. I don't need to beg for it like this anyway. I can let Nanaya touch me enough afterwards!"
"Haha~ You look really impressive, do you want me to applaud you?"
Illya pouted, she looked at Rin's chest and suddenly realized something.
"It's already been a year, but the scale is still the same." Illya said with her chest puffed out with pride, "I think this is the limit of someone's life."
"You little girl!"
This time, not only Rin but also Lily got angry.
"I said..."
"Oni-chan, don't interrupt."
"Nanaya, you have nothing to do here!"
"Director Nanaya, please step down. This is a war about dignity."
Seeing that the women ignored him, Nanaya could only raise his voice.
"It's time to receive the award, Rin, aren't you going to go on stage?"
"Forehead……"
The women then realized that on the podium in the banquet hall, the award presenter was holding the trophy for "Best Actress" and looking for Rin.
