Chapter 236 - Chapter 232 Miss Ryan's Little Habit

"Huhaha—Huhaha—"

Shinji Matou walked towards Kotomine Kirei in embarrassment, his eyes were scattered, his clothes were loose, and his face was covered with dust.

Fear, hesitation, and anxiety.

All of this was reflected on that rather handsome face.

He was just a complete loser who could do nothing but seek help from the church.

Judging from his appearance, Shinji Matou couldn't be in the worst condition at this moment.

Compared to his earlier nobleman persona, he now looks just like a beggar on the street.

However, Matsushige Yutaka, who played Father Mapo, was very clear that it was not because of his director's superior acting skills, but because he had fallen three times on the way from the church entrance to his front.

Matsushige Yutaka believed that anyone who fell three times in a row would not be much better than the director in front of him.

Nanaya himself didn't have such awareness. He just thought it was great that he didn't have to fall again after falling all the way.

But God just likes to play tricks on people.

Just as Nanaya was thinking this, his feet slipped again.

[Oops, it's too early.]

According to the script, Shinji Matou needs to fall at the end of the aisle.

But he has not reached that distance yet, and what's worse is that Kotomine Kirei's figure should have appeared in the camera by now.

This means that this time the fall cannot be eliminated through editing.

[Do we have to do it again? Please forgive me. ]

Just when Nanaya had lost his balance, his hand suddenly touched something soft.

It's Matsushige Yutaka.

Seeing that Nanaya was about to fall to the ground again, the uncle took the initiative to step forward and act as a support.

From the camera, it looked as if Shinji Matou had taken the initiative to pull Kotomine Kirei's clothes.

Nanaya looked at Matsushige Yutaka's face, but the corner of his eyes was looking at the staff outside the camera.

The script supervisor quickly made a big "O" gesture, signaling him to continue.

So Nanaya grabbed Matsushige Yutaka's clothes and began to use force, and the blue veins on the back of his hands bulged out.

"Um…ah…"

An unclear sound came out of Nanaya's mouth.

It sounded like both a roar and a wail.

"You are the first one to come here on the sixth day of the Holy Grail War."

Kotomine Kirei said without any emotion.

Nanaya looked up hurriedly, his bloodshot eyes gazing at the priest standing in front of him.

The priest frowned.

"Are you seeking asylum?"

"What else do you think I'm here for?! I've already lost my Servant!"

Shinji, who has lost his Servant, is in a very bad mood. What he fears most is that outsiders look down on him.

The normal questioning from the priest in front of him inadvertently touched the most vulnerable part of Shinji's heart.

"So, young man, do you want to give up the fight?"

The priest said this very calmly, as if he was just stating a fact.

But this solemn voice was like a drop of cold water poured into hot oil.

"Of course, do you want me to die?!"

Shinji's words seemed to be both an outlet for his anger towards Kotomine Kirei and a way of comforting himself.

"Anyway, without servants, there is no fighting power, so who wants to be a Master?"

"I, I'm just an ordinary human being. I was dragged into this war without any reason. I am just an innocent victim, right!?"

"This is murder, right?"

"Cut~??"

Shonan called for a stop.

"Nanaye-san, you're speaking too hastily~"

"Sorry." Nanaya stood up straight, "Let me see the footage I just took."

"OK."

The staff sitting in front of the monitor hurriedly gave up their seats.

After checking the camera footage, Nanaya said, "Well... let's start again from the scene where you looked up."

"Don't you want to wrestle anymore~??Ah——!"

Nanaya withdrew his right foot from Shonan's foot.

"If you don't speak, no one will think you are dumb."

Nanaya turned to praise Matsushige Yutaka who was still standing there, "Well done, uncle. Just keep it up. I'm the one holding you back."

"I think it's your expression, Nanaya-san~?" Shonan reminded while looking at the monitor, "Your expression is too exaggerated."

"Indeed, Director Nanaya, you are not suitable for excessive expressions. You look like an idiot."

Lily came over from the side and pointed at Nanaya's slightly funny expression on the screen and said.

"It's really bad, even worse than me."

"Because I'm a director, not an actor." Nanaya tapped Lily on the head.

"Well... I'm reminding Director Nanaya that you are not suitable for overly exaggerated expressions. Your face is distorted."

"I know."

Nanaya also felt that his face did not look good on camera.

"Everyone take a 5-minute break and start again later."

Nanaya felt that he needed to adjust his mood. Besides, everyone in the crew had been accompanying him in falling since morning until now, so he also needed to relax a little.

Five minutes later, Nanaya stood in front of Matsushige Yutaka again.

This time, Nanaya's performance was more restrained, which made him look a little lacking in emotion, but it was much better than his previous overly exaggerated appearance.

"That's it."

Nanaya sighed. This was the most comfortable performance he looked after several NGs.

Just as he had told Lily before, he, Nanaya Kiryu, was a director, not an actor.

He may be able to direct the actors on how to perform, but it would be a bit difficult for him to perform himself.

"I think I should just be a behind-the-scenes worker."

"Won't you try harder?"

Lily asked, blinking.

"Forget it this time. It takes too much time." Nanaya picked the kelp off his head and threw it to the assistant beside him.

"When I have time in the future, I will direct and star in a movie to hone my acting skills."

Nanaya didn't want to see himself look so bad anymore. He estimated that among all the main characters, his acting skills were definitely the most embarrassing.

"Well, you can bring your sister to perform with you. You two are equally good at performing, so you can be a perfect pair."

Lily licked her lollipop while giving bad ideas.

Nanaya raised his eyebrows, took out his cell phone and checked his email.

"It's ready, you can bring the person over."

"Yeah, very good."

Nanaya nodded with satisfaction. Lily had been showing off since the beginning, and now it was time for her to pay the price.

"Come on, Lily. It's your turn. Go to Sister Katsura to change your clothes."

"Um?"

Lily felt something was not right. Nanaya's smirk made her feel a sense of crisis.

"Don't look at me like that, you'll know when you go there." Nanaya said while holding back his laughter.

"What are you laughing at?" Lily frowned.

"Pfft...my sister gave birth to a baby."

"You are kidding me, where did your sister come from? Sister-in-law, bah, bah, your lover is more like that."

Lily remembered very clearly that someone was an only child.

"Anyway, go ahead."

Nanaya pushed Lily's back and signaled her to go to the locker room quickly.

"I said, don't push me, I can walk by myself...sister!?"

Lily saw Ryan and Katsura Mamako standing together.

"You're here, Lily."

Lily instinctively sensed something was wrong: "Why are you all here?"

"Because I was invited."

Ryan had the same smile as Nanaya just now.

"Ha?"

Lily felt puzzled. She turned around and wanted to leave, but her way was blocked by Shion and Nanaya at the same time.

"What's going on? Brother-in-law... Director Nanaya, what are you going to do?"

"That's right, Lily."

Nanaya coughed twice and said, "In view of your current popularity on the Internet, we are going to make an exclusive promotional video for you."

"What does this have to do with my sister?"

Shion took over the topic: "It's like this, although this promotional video is for promoting Fate, it's more for preparing for your future idol debut."

"Continue..."

Alarm bells were ringing in Lily's mind. Although there was no evidence, she felt that she was in great danger at the moment.

"So we discussed it a bit and finally decided to show you our full range of charm."

"Starting with the character of Artoria, we're going to let you try on a variety of clothes, including suits, swimsuits, maid uniforms, idol skirts, and more!"

Although Nanaya spoke in a serious tone, the corners of his mouth that were curving upwards revealed his inner thoughts.

"Wait a minute, isn't this a cosplay collection?!"

Lily took a step back and saw that her sister had taken out a white dress.

"Isn't this the birthday present you gave me last year?! I remember I stuffed it in the back of my closet!"

Lily could tell the origin of the dress at a glance.

"Because you, my child, have always refused to wear it." She said in a disobedient tone, "Not only this skirt, but I also brought other skirts."

"Could it be that all the years before..."

"That's right, Lily, just give up. Let your sister see enough this time!"

Ryan nodded, and she handed the skirt to Katsura Mamako beside her, while she approached Lily herself.

"No!" Lily screamed. If you didn't know, you would think Ryan was going to molest her.

"Brother-in-law, you are my brother-in-law, stop this woman immediately!"

"Lily, you'd better give up. We proposed this plan together."

Nanaya refused Lily's request for help with a smile. He watched with a peaceful look as Lily was dragged into the locker room by Ryan.

"I didn't expect that Miss Ryan, who has always been so serious, would have such a hobby."

Shion secretly said to Nanaya: "I heard from Ryan that because she was too diligent in changing Lily's clothes when she was a child, Lily had a psychological trauma.

"So, when Lily grew up, she was very resistant to changing clothes."

Nanaya was dumbfounded and said: "Changing clothes has caused psychological trauma... How crazy was Ryan at the time..."

"I have some idea about this. It is said that for this promotional video, Ryan took the initiative to provide Lily with 30 sets of clothes..."

"…"

[This is really persistent...]

Nanaya would never admit that he was looking forward to Lily's 30 outfit changes.

He could swear by Shonan's flashy suit.
