Chapter 208 The Holy Maiden

"Joan of Arc with her kindness, her humility, her integrity and her innocence made her stand for what she believed. That's what she was all about."

— Said a certain theologian.

Rouen. Old Market Square

Like an elegy from the other side, she turned a deaf ear to the filthy words that flowed into her ears.She would be lying if she wasn't sad at all at these words, but it would be exaggerated if they made her feel pain.

Fear, in other words, is just a concern.When she was determined to fight, she had already put shame and regret aside, and even at this moment, she never felt it.

She was dragged into the square, and the onlookers gathered around her.She walked straight, clutching her chest subconsciously, and realized that her cross had been stolen at some point.

The pillar of her heart left her, and sadness slowly soaked her heart.While she was mourning, an Englishman rushed over and handed her a rough wooden cross with great reverence.

"Thank you." She whispered gratefully, and she had to look down at him, because the man was already kneeling in front of her, tears streaming from the corners of her eyes.Although some people would belittle her, more people cried bitterly at her.

If those foul words are foreign songs from far away lands, then those sorrows may be mother's lullaby.

Her hands were tightly bound and her back was pressed against the wooden frame.Under such a bondage, no one would think that she could escape.The tightness of the bondage gives people a feeling that even if they want to loosen it, it is futile.

Sent this far, I couldn't escape.she thought so.

When her last charge was read at the ceremony, torches lit the pyre beneath her.

Tongues of fire licked slowly at her feet.To those gathered around her, burning a human body with fire was the most horrific form of execution imaginable.The skin was burned by the flames, and the flesh and bones were burned by the fire.The only way is to shout the name of God and the Virgin over and over again.

"Your prayers are all lies."

She has been accused of this many times and has been insulted like this many times.She is powerless to solve this problem.There are no fixed right and wrong for prayers, they must be constant regardless of who is praying.

She wanted to tell them they were wrong, but she couldn't speak.Instead, she sees her former life: her lovely hometown, her normal family and a fool who abandoned them.But is she really a fool?Yes, she might have been.

after all.When she so chooses.Such an ending has long been expected.No one can understand the final outcome better than her.

If she looked away at that time, she would have ushered in a different ending at this moment.

If she ignored those voices, if she turned her back on the soldiers' dying laments, maybe she would live a happy life like an ordinary woman.Maybe she will get married and live a happy life as a wife and mother.

Such a future would belong to her.Nothing will change.

However.She put this happiness aside.towards a completely different end.She raised her sword, put on her armor, and carried the flag of national glory on her back.The forefront commander Jin Ge Iron Horse began his military career.

You must have known it was going to end like this, didn't you?

She knew it a long time ago, and she had realized it long ago.Her efforts only meant that she would one day meet such an ending.Although many people cursed her as a fool and laughed at her stupidity.

However, this could save many more lives!The path I have chosen is correct.

Her visions of the past and the future fade away with the brutal reality that surrounds her and consumes her ashes in prayer.

This is her last prayer, this is her sacrifice.Even if everyone in the world blamed her and betrayed her, she was sure at the last moment before she died that she had not betrayed herself.

No regrets, no hopes for the future.In the end she will be quiet.

Despite being treated so cruelly, before her life came to an end and everyone was extinguished, her selfless prayer and no regrets still echoed in her heart.

—Lord, entrust this body.

Her last consciousness was gone, and in the last moment of her life she was finally freed from suffering.Her dreamless sleep was over, and only reality remained.But it's far from over.The legend of Joan of Arc began to spread in the place where girls dreamed of bubbles.

About three days ago, the blond girl opened her eyes.His perplexed eyes quickly came to his senses, and he silently recalled that the method of summoning this time was really unusual.There is no precedent for a call with such a tenuous connection to this world.Could the reason be that this Holy Grail War is too abnormal?

The current world is finally completed, and there are no problems with all indicators.But with this body right now, she is an out-and-out French girl.Furthermore, she also has most of the memories of the French girl.One body hosts two personalities. Compared with the so-called multiple personalities, it is better to say that the unity of the two personalities is more appropriate.Perhaps because of the girl's strong sensibility and devout faith, she recognized and fully accepted the girl in her body.

"I'm going to borrow your body for the time being, Leticia."

The girl called the bearer's name.

Think of the first thing to do.Go say hello to a friend.The girl got up from the bed and shook her friend who was sleeping on the next bed.The friend dawdled for a while, finally rubbed his eyes after hearing the girl's whisper, and woke up halfway.

"Um what?"

Hearing this sleepy voice, the girl felt guilty in her heart for waking her up, and said in a clear voice:

"Starting today, I'm going to be away from here for a while"

Perhaps because she still couldn't understand the seriousness of the words, the friend said goodbye and fell asleep again—after a few seconds, she suddenly lifted the quilt and shouted: "What did you just say?"

"I'm so sorry for being so abrupt, but I'm running out of time."

"No, no. I don't have time. I don't understand what you're saying! It's too abrupt! Why do you say such a thing right after saying 'good night and see you tomorrow'!"

Facing the friend who was shouting in confusion, the girl told her sincerely, "This is a long trip", "This trip is absolutely necessary", and "Don't worry". The friend listened to her words in a daze for a while, Before long, he nodded as if he understood.

"Understood. If I have to go, there's nothing I can do."

"Okay. I'll explain to the teacher."

"Well. So. Good night"

"OK, good night"

The girl didn't use magic to cast hints.But as a ruler, she has the power to make a third party believe her own words.

She told her teachers and classmates that she was going on a journey.And make them understand that this is a necessary trip.Although the girl felt a little arrogant, there was nothing she could do about it.She sighed and put aside her distracting thoughts.

Fortunately, the owner of this body is currently living in a student dormitory.Get away from your parents.The longest trip is only about a month, so they should not know about it.

The girl stuffed the necessary change of clothes, passport, and textbooks into her bag and left the student dormitory.The original owner of this body - Leticia is still a student.Girls from rural areas never had the opportunity to learn to read and write.Therefore, it is really strange to grasp the knowledge of modern languages ​​easily by relying on the Holy Grail.

"Having said that, there must be a limit to anomalies."

She didn't even need to borrow someone else's body, but should be summoned in the form of a real world on the urban battlefield like a normal servant.

However, this time, she was summoned in the form of being attached to someone else's body, and the location was her own motherland-this piece of France that still retains the appearance of the past.

Was it an accident caused by the abnormality of the Holy Grail War?Or is there another reason?In any case, since he was called as a ruler, he must shoulder the task of overcoming all difficulties.The girl made up her mind.

The girl's real name was Joan of Arc.The class of a servant is ruler (arbiter), without a master, and is the absolute manager of the Holy Grail War.

In this way, the girl took the night bus all the way to the airport, and then flew to Fuyuki City in Japan.It would be nice to be able to transform into a spirit body, but it seems impossible.There was no other way, so she had to pay for the ticket at her own expense (letitia's money, to be precise).Afterwards, she would have to go to the Church of the Holy Church and the Magic Association to make a request. Thinking of this, she felt a little gloomy.

On the plane, she sorted out the knowledge she was given.I learned that the place where the battlefield became a battlefield is Fuyuki, a small city in Japan.The owner of that piece of land appears to be the Yusanjia.In contrast, there are also magicians who are not from the Yusan family.The problem with the status quo is that there have been obvious differences in the battle situation from the very beginning. On the one hand, there are the true ancestors with abnormal combat power, and on the other hand, the resistance faction composed of survivors. In addition, there are no other human beings in Fuyuki City. It doesn't matter, I'm afraid this is the biggest violation method.

It's not surprising that the surrounding buildings are devastated by the aftermath of a one-on-one fight alone.But it is already a serious violation of the rules to sacrifice the people of the entire city before fighting.Regardless of which of the two camps will win in the end, just imagining the outcome is melancholy.

Anyway, head to Fuyuki City in Japan first.

Let's talk later.

Counting the transfer and waiting time, it took a total of more than one and a half days to arrive at F Airport, which is the closest airport to Fuyuki City.It was just after noon and the sky was, unfortunately, cloudy.The sky covered by thick black-gray clouds really fits the saying 'I'm about to cry'.Although knowledge has been given to itself.But the airport built with the latest technology still looks very fresh in the eyes of girls.

Perhaps because of sitting all the time, the waist is a little heavy.During this long journey in the sky, half of the time was spent thinking about this Holy Grail War, and the remaining half was dedicated to praying for a safe journey.Thanks to the knowledge given to the Servant, she knows exactly what kind of transportation an airplane is.But knowledge and reality cannot be compared.Honestly, what kind of iron like that can fly?She still doesn't understand.

It's nice not to fall off.

She thought so.

The girl holding the bag with a defenseless face walked unsteadily among the crowd. This is probably the best target for a thief.But for some reason none of the thieves had the heart to attack her.They're not rogue enough to dip their dirty feet into clear water.

To go to Fuyuki City, you have to take some kind of transportation. After much deliberation, there is only a taxi.

The moment I stepped out of the airport.Countless gazes pierced through the girl.But in her hunting area, within a radius of ten kilometers, there is no aura of followers.Even though the ability to detect enemies that can be nullified by Assassin's "breath cover" cannot be sensed, he can still feel the line of sight, which means——

"Detect magic and familiars?"

The magic of observing distant things can be roughly divided into two methods.One is the magic of Yuanwang.It is a kind of magic to observe distant places through crystal jade or mirrors.As long as there is a certain medium, even in a safe workshop, the outside can be monitored.therefore.Most magicians have mastered this kind of magic.

On the other hand, the familiar.It is the magic of processing a part of a small animal or body to create a lifelike body.The five senses can be shared by establishing a causal line with the master.This is also a preliminary magic trick for ordinary magicians.

The girl looked around.No matter what she did, she couldn't feel where those gazes came from, as if they existed for granted, it seemed like a very delicate detective magic.

But in the next moment.The feeling of being spied on disappeared.

After confirming that no one was watching, the girl heaved a sigh of relief. It's great that the other party is so sensible. I'm afraid it's the kind of enemy who is deliberately looking for a single target, otherwise it will be troublesome.

When she arrived in Fuyuki City, the sky was still so blue, but such weather could not wash away the haze in her heart.

Relying on her legs, she walked several kilometers. Although she witnessed the purgatory scene, the girl did not feel any regrets.If she hadn't forced the driver to stop and put her down on the highway outside Fuyuki City, it would have been impossible to sneak through that barrier with the humans.Probably it was the handwriting of the True Ancestor, who actually blocked the news and completely cut off communication with the outside world with a barrier.

Not to mention the government, even the Magic Association and the Church of the Holy Church reacted too late.

Ordinary people are all dead, leaving only a group of non-humans fighting to the death.

Suddenly, there was a warning sign in the girl's heart, and there was the aura of a follower in front of her.Gently putting down the bag, she immediately changed her clothes to her original battle attire.Armor woven with magic power wrapped her whole body.It seemed that there was more urgency than she had imagined.The ruler who was summoned gradually ignited his fighting spirit.

She didn't hide her breath, so the other party quickly came to the door.

"—It seems that we have thought of a piece, but I'm sorry, I don't plan to delay too long with the girls, my master told me to make it quick." The hair that grew randomly kept it transparent and white.His gaze was as sharp as a polished blade, and the red stone inlaid on the exposed chest also reflected each other, brewing a lustrous and alluring color.But the most eye-catching thing is the golden armor that radiates divine brilliance rather than enveloping the whole body, as if it is integrated with the body.

Although every part is so beautiful, the combined youth gives a strong impression beyond beauty, what a wonderful youth.

"You are a cer."

The girl stared at his figure without hesitation.

"It's amazing, I saw through my job description before I even made a move, so you must be a Saber. Your saber has already exposed you."

Karna nodded while not forgetting to say.Although it is a casual remark, there is also a tentative tactic.

"No, I'm a ruler."

"ruler?"

I have never heard of this job posting, and even the Holy Grail has not given me relevant knowledge.

So that Karna was not taken aback.

But his inherent skill--the knowledge of the poor told him that the other party was not lying.

what happened? ...Forget it, the other party has the spirit status of a heroic spirit, so it must be a follower. No matter what her intentions are, I have no reason to stop.

Killing intent flashed across Karna's eyes...

The battle has reached a fever pitch.

Before he got close, the extremely sharp wind hit him like a sharp blade, and there was a slight pain when it blew on the person's face.The opponent's spear skills have reached the realm of gods and demons, and the corresponding physical stats fully demonstrate the incomparable force.Although she knows the opponent's real name and job description, it is natural that she has a certain understanding of the enemy. In terms of intelligence, she is undoubtedly an absolutely advantageous side. The overall strength of the spearmen still exceeded her psychological expectations.

Even so, when the spear that was so fast that you couldn't even see the afterimage stabbed straight at it, the blond girl still blocked it cleanly and decisively.

There was only a bang when the sword and gun collided.

It was as if hundreds of catties of explosives exploded in an instant, and the billowing air waves formed a hurricane. Not only did the ghouls attracted by the battle fly away, but the ground under their feet also collapsed. This scene was like a meteorite falling.These two people are both proficient in hand-to-hand combat skills, this can be said to be the ability to use the method of unloading force.

"——I didn't intend to ask more questions, so as not to make people think that I was suspected of letting go, but the truth is, you are not good at swordsmanship." Karna suddenly took a step back and said coldly.

"Eh?"

"Because...your swordsmanship is as if someone forced it on you, a dwarf wielding a giant sword... This kind of statement is more in line with the sense of disobedience you bring to me."

(Especially wake up, the setting of the heroic spirit in the book is slightly different from the original book) (To be continued...)
