“Father, it is an honor to meet you.
This is a joyous occasion.”
“However, Father, I must also share something that will make you sad, because I saw at a glance that you are already terminally ill.”
Lynch approached Kirei Kotomine, maintaining a two-meter distance.
He activated the character card acquisition process, then put on a sincere and serious expression, and immediately started his grand speech to Kirei Kotomine, much like those charlatans who open with ‘You, sir, are destined for a bloody calamity.’
However, with the blessing of ‘Perfect Acting,’ Lynch’s deceptive words had an extremely strong persuasive power and showed no sign of being acted.
At this point, I hope readers will remember our domain name Taiwan Novel Net, which is super powerful and has a vast library.
Instantly, Kirei Kotomine froze, his originally calm and unperturbed expression shifting slightly into one of great shock and bewilderment.
fun points +10+10+10…
A series of messages about acquiring fun points appeared in the system log, proving that Kirei Kotomine was indeed swayed by Lynch’s words.
After a brief silence, Kirei Kotomine calmed down.
He gazed at Lynch and asked, “Excuse me, sir, are you a doctor?”
Lynch shook his head: “No, I am not a doctor.”
“…” Kirei Kotomine fell silent.
Not a doctor, yet he claimed Kirei Kotomine was terminally ill.
He was indeed being deceived.
But why would this person deceive him like this?
Kirei Kotomine couldn’t understand.
As someone born with emotional deficiencies, and before being twisted into a perverted pleasure-seeker by a certain Gilgamesh, he was truly a simple-minded, straightforward, and honest person.
His past experiences had also made his life quite ‘simple,’ and he had never encountered someone like Lynch, who started with a grand fortune-teller-like deception.
It’s too new, I haven’t seen it before, so I’ll observe first.
Then, seeing Kirei Kotomine unresponsive, Lynch continued his performance: “Father, although I am not a doctor, I specialize in psychology and have a very high level of achievement in this field.
I can essentially tell at a glance whether a person has psychological or mental problems.”
These words were pure, earnest nonsense.
In the era of mobile internet in later generations, he would definitely be ridiculed as an arrogant charlatan.
However, in 1993, when computer networks were just beginning, it was far too advanced.
Many people believed in various masters and experts, and on this island nation, cults and scammers were constantly emerging, with many people believing in them.
Most importantly, on this foundation, this world truly had an extraordinary system, and Kirei Kotomine happened to be an extraordinary person, so the situation was completely different.
Especially since Kirei Kotomine himself felt no falsehood from Lynch; everything was so real, so real that his intuition kept telling him that the handsome man in front of him was not lying.
The dual attributes of Perfect Acting + Masked Fool were just that miraculous.
This was also why Lynch was able to chat and laugh with Tohsaka Tokiomi using a fake identity, and Tohsaka Tokiomi completely believed him.
The ability of a comedic character, no matter how weak, is still conceptual.jpg.
So, after a moment of silence, Kirei Kotomine asked, “So, sir, have you noticed a problem with my psychology or spirit?”
Lynch nodded slightly, then pointed to a nearby bench for resting and said, “So, Father, shall we go over and chat?
I think it will be a pleasant exchange.”
Kirei Kotomine hesitated slightly, but ultimately nodded in agreement.
Thus, Lynch and Kirei Kotomine walked towards the bench together.
During the process, Lynch deliberately walked slowly, as if taking a post-dinner stroll, and Kirei Kotomine, being an honest person, followed suit, walking slowly as well.
In short, it was all about ‘dragging it out.’
As long as they could achieve ten minutes of interaction, everything would be fine.jpg.
A path that could be walked in a dozen seconds ultimately took over forty seconds, and the two of them finally sat down on the bench.
Throughout the entire process, Kirei Kotomine’s expression remained calm, showing no signs of anxiety.
He simply gazed calmly at Lynch after sitting down, as if automatically following a tranquil plotline.
Honestly, such calmness could be quite pressure-inducing for most people, but Lynch was no ordinary person.
He continued his persona as a quack traditional Chinese doctor, gazing at Kirei Kotomine for a long while with a profound and wise gaze, as if he could see through appearances to the essence.
After dragging it out for another half minute, he slowly began to speak.
“Indeed, I was not mistaken, Father.
You have a clear emotional defect.
If I’m not wrong, you must find it very difficult to feel sadness, correct?”
Slowly, word by word, Lynch spoke words that made Kirei Kotomine’s expression subtly change.
Lynch didn’t wait for Kirei Kotomine’s reply and continued, “Because of this lack of sadness, your emotional reaction to happiness is also very weak.
One could even say that things people typically find joyful are very difficult to evoke emotional resonance in you.”
“…” Kirei Kotomine was speechless and did not respond to Lynch, but the constantly generated fun points already proved his mood at this moment.
Because Lynch was very accurate; Kirei Kotomine truly could not feel sadness, and emotions like happiness and joy were also rare for him.
He was undoubtedly a person born with emotional deficiencies.
Kirei Kotomine’s relatives were actually aware of this.
For example, his father, Risei Kotomine, saw Kirei Kotomine’s emotional deficiency as a characteristic of a born saint and was very proud of it, almost shouting, ‘My son Kirei has the makings of a saint!’
Additionally, Kirei Kotomine’s wife, Claudia Hortensia, also knew about this.
But unlike Risei Kotomine, Claudia knew this was not the makings of a saint but a mere defect, and she felt sad and grieved about it, even attempting to save Kirei Kotomine by committing suicide, though she ultimately failed.
Well, to be honest, Lynch couldn’t understand what kind of extreme idea it was to save others by suicide.
One could only say that anyone who could marry Kirei Kotomine was not a normal person either, belonging to the archetype of madman and madwoman.
Of course, Kirei Kotomine’s father, Risei Kotomine, was also a divine person.
An innate antisocial personality with emotional deficiency could be regarded as the makings of a saint.
One can only say that such extreme religious people usually have some kind of significant mental illness.
After a good while, Kirei Kotomine’s emotions calmed down.
After all, as someone with emotional deficiencies, it was very difficult for him to maintain significant emotional fluctuations for a long time.
He gazed at Lynch and said in a deep voice, “So, sir, could you elaborate on my situation?
I would like to…
understand my situation in detail.”
Lynch maintained a calm and approachable smile on his face: “Of course, I would be happy to have a…
academically valuable exchange regarding your situation, Father.”
Next, a unilaterally pleasant exchange began.
