I don't like the gods, I want to be a hero

After the knights robbed the villagers of their food, Seleus would find a way to help them obtain food. Seleus was not very good at finding food in this underdeveloped world.

Although the villagers who survived after getting food may join the army with hatred for the victorious country, and there will be a large number of casualties in the two countries in the future, this is a necessary sacrifice for the coming of peace.

As long as the defeated country drives out the victorious country, peace between the two countries can last for a long time.This is not a small country with few people, Greece with one city and one country. A war involving such a large territory is already the most feasible way that Celius' wisdom can think of.

However, after the knight drew his sword and wanted to kill the villagers, their nature changed, and Seleus had to take action to kill these bastards who despise life.And in order not to bring a series of troubles to the village, Seleus deliberately killed the tax collection team with only his claws, imitating the attack of a wild beast.

"Thank you, mighty warrior, without your help, our entire Domremy village would be burned to the ground by these villains, even we..."

After Seleus killed the guys from the tax collection team, the villagers looked at Seleus' red hair with a little fear, but unlike them, the middle-aged man went up to him and grabbed Seleus' hand Can't stop thanking you.

"You don't seem to be very afraid of me." Serius looked at the middle-aged man in front of him curiously. Against the backdrop of the fearful expressions of everyone around him, the gratitude of the middle-aged man was really special.

"You can call me Jacques. They are just overwhelmed by your burly figure and powerful force, and they can't react for a while." Jacques enthusiastically pulled Celius into the village and brought him to his home.

"You helped us, please let us thank you, but because the incident happened suddenly, could you please wait for a while?" Jacques' attitude was very respectful, as long as no one with malicious intentions could find fault with his attitude , not to mention the good old man Seleus.

After Seleus was settled, Jacques hurried out of the house, apparently to call the villagers to deal with some matters.

"Smart guy!" After the man named Jacques left, Seleus praised his wisdom.

Seeing the intention of Seleus to attack only with his claws, he concluded that Seleus had no malice towards them, and they could not resist Seleus at all.And because he was afraid that the attitude of the villagers would anger Seleus, he hurriedly dragged Seleus to his home to settle down...

"Running out in such a hurry, is it to organize people to deal with those corpses and explain the attitude of the villagers towards me?"

Serius thought so, and then he started to look at the layout of the room when he had nothing to do. It was obviously a delicate and bright room, but it gave people a sense of emptiness and abruptness without a lot of furniture. Three months of taxes, Seleus knew why.

"Is this gentleman my father's guest?"

Just as Serius was looking at the room he was in, a clear voice entered his ears.Seleus looked around, and saw a little blond girl looking at him timidly by the door, oh, looking at his red hair.

"If your father is Mr. Jacques, then I am indeed his guest." Serius, who was afraid of scaring this cute little girl, smiled and asked softly. "Excuse me, may I have the honor to know your name? Lovely little lady."

Serius' smile seemed to relieve the little girl, and she patted her chest, and her eyes were no longer on Serius' hair.At this moment, for the first time, Seleus rejoiced that Aphrodite gave her the blessing of beauty, which was never needed.

"My name is Ranna, sir, you can just call me Ranna." The blond girl approached with a plate of rough snacks, and after hearing her name, Serius froze there, and then asked worriedly . "Sir, what's wrong with you?"

"No, I'm not feeling well, I'm just a little concerned about one thing." The voice of the blond girl woke up the sluggish Serius, and the red-haired hero asked cautiously. "Miss Jeanna, may I know your last name?"

"My surname?" The little girl was a little puzzled, she blinked her big eyes and looked at Serius in front of her. She didn't understand why the guest in front of her, who had been instructed by her father not to neglect her name. Interested, but she replied politely. "Dalk, my full name is Jeanne Dalk."

"Ranadark?" Serius whispered the name, as if he knew what world this was.

Looking at the little girl in front of him with complicated eyes, a name emerged in Serius' heart...

Holy Maiden - Joan of Arc.

Chapter 2 Learning Art

"Those Brits are going too far!" He slammed the wooden wine glass on the table, Jacques said with strong anger.

The scale of the Anglo-French war is getting bigger and bigger. As for the reason for the bigger scale?Can I say that the best record of the French army is to hold on to a city for 4 months before withdrawing?

The British army commanded by Henry VI advanced layer by layer on the French territory, but Prince Charles couldn't resist with a decent army.Although the enlarged scale dispersed the British troops in a disguised form, making the French army under less and less offensive pressure, but correspondingly, the French army needed more and more places to defend.

But generally speaking, compared to the fact that the British army was about to be defeated at the beginning of the war, the French army, which now has a local advantage and can replenish troops at any time and has a short supply line, can already resist.That's the only 'good' news out of all the bad news...huh?Probably 'good' news.

"What's the matter? Jacques." Carrying the bloody prey on his shoulders, Serius just opened the door when he found the polite and polite Jacques drinking at home for the first time.Curious about what happened, Celius asked his landlord with some doubts.

"It's Serius, you're back from hunting." Jacques, who was about to continue pouring wine into his mouth, immediately put down his glass to say hello when he saw Serius came back, and then explained with some indignation.

Although the village of Domremy is still in an area loyal to France with the help of Seleus, they are surrounded by British-occupied areas and Burgundians.The French army would not come here to defend, while the British army did not dare to occupy this area because of the frequent killings of wild beasts. Except for taxes, no one would come here to stay.

Domremy and the surrounding villages seem to be hidden by the gods. Only the occasional tax collection team can prove the existence of this village, and those tax collection teams are also very nervous when they come, and they dare not stay after collecting taxes. No matter how much these villages pay, just pick it up and run away.

"Our Domremy Village has been blessed by you these years, and life is much better." Jacques took a sip of wine. "No matter how much you pay, those British guys won't say anything. But once they leave our 'land where wild animals are ravaging', they will intensify their efforts to snatch it from other villages!"

"The people in those villages are already overwhelmed by the imposition of taxes again and again." With a 'bang', he smashed the wine glass on the only remaining table. Keep the image in front of you. "When I went out this time, I heard that several towns had to take up arms and resist because there was nothing left after being robbed."

"They only intended to stop the British guys from being so rampant, but those beasts in human skin killed all the adults mercilessly, and even let the children in the town go. They didn't think about it either. How can a child survive without the protection of adults in this world!"

Jacques drank the rest of the wine in one gulp, then fell heavily to the ground. "These damned beasts!"

After cursing harshly, Jacques, an adult man, lay down on the table and began to cry.

"Oh?" Serius sighed softly, he didn't know how to comfort the man in front of him.

Seleus knew Jacques, he was a kind, just and very strong man.In the past few years, although Seleus looked very relaxed every time he came back as a beast, the insensitive Seleus still noticed that the decorations and furniture of Jacques' house were constantly decreasing.

Those British people who came to collect taxes would leave every time they weighed their wallets a few times. I think it's not just because there are 'beasts' here.

After searching for a long time, he did not find another table where the prey could be placed, so Seleus had to hang his trophies on the wall.

Not in a hurry to deal with the prey, Seleus silently stood behind and watched Jacques who was crying.There were a few tables missing, so this man didn't just hear the rumors as he said.

"Huh?" Seleus suddenly felt his clothes being pulled gently. He looked down, and saw a little girl with dazzling blond hair looking up at him, with a kind of twinkle in her big green eyes. Firmness unimaginable by ordinary people.

It's Jeanna.

Serius shook his head, because he was distracted and didn't notice the crisis, he didn't even notice the approach of a little girl.

"What's the matter? Jeanna." Kneeling down, he kept his gaze parallel to the little girl in front of him. Ever since he knew that this blonde girl was the future Joan of Arc, Seleus never regarded her as an ordinary girl. The little girl, but given enough respect.

"Mr. Seleus, can I ask you to teach me the martial arts to protect myself?" Ranna's timid tone revealed a firmness.

"Oh?" Serius was a little surprised. Although he knew that Joan's life was destined to be extraordinary, he was still curious about the reason why this holy girl wanted to learn martial arts. "Can I ask why you want to learn martial arts from me?"

"I want to help my father! I don't want to become as helpless as I am now after seeing that strong father." Without any hesitation, Ranna explained her reasons.

"I want to help my father..." Seleus touched his chin, although Joan's answer was different from what he expected, but he was not surprised by it.

But for a girl in her teens, the desire to learn martial arts to help her father is very precious even in this troubled world.

"Zanna is so kind." Serius reached out his hand to touch the little girl's head, but he suddenly realized whether his behavior was too frivolous for this girl who wanted to help her father shoulder the responsibilities What?

Ran Na, who has already made up her mind, doesn't need to praise her like coaxing a child. Affirmation and support are the best responses to her.Out of this consideration, Seleus withdrew his hand without a trace.

"I agree!" Serius nodded lightly. No matter what the consideration is, it is not a bad thing for a girl living in a war-torn place to have the ability to protect herself.not to mention...

Seleus stared at the little girl in front of him with sighs, imagining in his mind the image of a saint in armor and holding a battle flag in her hand.

"Really? Is Mr. Seleus really willing to teach me?" The crisp voice was full of joy, and Seleus could even see the light in the little girl's eyes.

"Of course it is true, but let me tell you first, my training is very strict, and I will never give up halfway." With a finger raised, Seleus felt that he needed to give the excited Ranna a vaccination.

"Don't worry! Mr. Seleus, I will never give up halfway..."

Chapter 3 Farewell, Joan of Arc

"Drink~!"

Accompanied by a coquettish cry, the blond girl pushed forward with her right hand, while her left hand tried hard to control the direction of the gun tip, stabbing the target in front of her with all her strength.

"puff!"

The tip of the gun pierced the bull's-eye accurately, and the relieved little blond girl wiped the sweat from her forehead, looking at the pierced bull's-eye in front of her with a satisfied smile.

"Very good! It looks like you are very talented in fighting, Jeanna." Seleus behind him couldn't help clapping his hands.

It only took three days to stand at the maximum attack range of the gun and stab the tip of the gun into the bull's-eye accurately. I have to say that this little girl, Ran Na, is really talented.

"That's because Mr. Serius taught well." Seeing the satisfied expression on the face of Serius who was walking towards her, Ranna touched her head in embarrassment. In her opinion, it took three days to learn Accurately controlling the direction of the spear's thrust is nothing at all.

Hearing Ranna's words, the corners of Serius' lips curled up slightly.The little girl Jeanna didn't know, but could Seleus himself not know?

Spear is a weapon that is easy to learn but hard to master. Even Serius himself can't guarantee how superb his spear skills are. However, it took only three days for Ranna to point and stab. Very talented too.

Serius felt that the reason why Ranna thought her talent was nothing special was probably because of her experience. With no peers around her to study with, the only person she could compare with was Serius who taught her spear skills. .

And compared with Serius, even in the spear skill that he is least good at, I believe that in the entire history of mankind, there are few people who dare to say that he is better than Serius.

However, Serius did not intend to point out this point. He wanted Ranna to carry on the next training with this humility. You must know that people improve the fastest when they truly realize their own shortcomings. This child, Ranna, should hurry up. Master the power enough to protect yourself, after all...

"Mr. Seleus, what should I study next?" Ranna who successfully completed the task interrupted Seleus' thoughts. The little girl looked at her martial arts teacher expectantly with wide eyes.

"Don't be so ambitious!" Serius rapped the little girl on the head lightly, and looked at Zhana who was covering her head with some nostalgia, and then warned the little blond girl. "Knowing how to use a gun and being able to fight with a gun are two different things. You still have a lot to learn."

"Okay." Ran Na responded dejectedly after rubbing her forehead that was a little red and swollen.

"Hehe." He couldn't help laughing out loud, and Serius looked at Ranna more tenderly.

It seems that every little guy in the world can't wait to learn some new, powerful and handsome moves when learning martial arts.So it was with Jeanna, and so it was with Seleus.

Serius still remembers the scene of being grabbed by the centaur sage to plow the ground when he finally finished the basic training with Teacher Chiron and couldn't wait to draw the bow and shoot arrows.

'Teacher!Did you look at me in the same mood as I do now? 'Looking up to the southwest, Serius' eyes were full of nostalgia.

"Mr. Seleus? Mr. Seleus?"

The crisp shouts awakened Serius, followed the sound, and saw Ranna's worried eyes.

"Is there something on your mind?" The little girl was very worried by Seleus who was always distracted.

"Don't worry, don't worry. It's just that I have some nostalgia for the life of studying art." With a light wave of his hand, Seleus signaled that the little girl Ranna was fine.

"Does such an inconceivably strong Mr. Seleus have a teacher?" Seeing that Seleus said that she was fine, the little girl's attention suddenly focused on Seleus' teacher.It seems that the little girl is very curious about the fact that Serius, who can kill wild boars with his bare hands, also has a teacher.

"Although there are many self-taught geniuses in the world, I obviously don't have that ability." Seleus looked at the little girl who kept blinking with some amusement. "Of course I have a teacher."

"Can you tell me what kind of person Mr. Seleus' teacher is?"

"My teacher is a kind and intelligent sage. I learned a lot of knowledge and martial arts from him..."

......

"Pay attention to defense and find the enemy's attack trajectory!" Seleus swung the long stick in his hand imperceptibly, as long as the girl in front of him relaxes a little, the long stick with strong wind will hit the girl mercilessly. body.

Without a chance to breathe, the blond girl tried her best to resist the attack from the teacher, but no matter how she resisted, the space for moving was still getting smaller and she couldn't even say a word of promise.

"When did I teach you to completely defend? When will the principle of long-term defense and loss be imprinted on your wooden brain?" Serius directly slammed a stick on the girl's shoulder, ignoring the girl's cry of pain , severely reprimanded. "Learn to observe! Observe! Observe every move of your opponent, and then think in your brain, especially when facing an enemy stronger than you, learn to exchange small injuries for the enemy's weapon when it falls on an insignificant part Chance to kill with one hit!"

Serius' reprimand made the girl's eyes flash with firmness. When the teacher's long stick hit her shoulder again, the girl let out a loud shout. The muscles on her arm were like a bow string being stretched, and she pulled the stick with all her strength. Pounding Serius' throat...

"Not bad!" Seleus finally smiled as he grabbed Renna's long stick with one hand.

After being praised by the teacher, Ran Na forced a smile on her sweaty face, and then collapsed on the ground, unable to move.

Carrying his student on his shoulders, Seleus walked towards Jacques' house.

"I heard from Jacques that you became the leader of an insurgent army?" On the way, Seleus chatted about what Jacques had been complaining to him recently. "Didn't you learn martial arts from me to help your father? How could you become the leader of the rebel army?"

"I just thought that you are here to protect my father, and the reason why my father has been going out is to help those who are oppressed. I feel that I should also do my part..." The girl on the shoulder felt a little uncomfortable. With a shy smile, she was a little afraid that her teacher would oppose her decision just like her father.

"What are you guys usually doing?" There was no emotion in Seleus's words, as if they were just ordinary chats.

"Under normal circumstances, they will attack those tax collection teams that have been oppressing ordinary people, and then use the stolen money to help those who have been persecuted and made homeless..." Ranna replied because she was not sure about Serius' attitude. The voice is getting smaller and smaller.

"That's right." Seleus sighed, and then fell silent.

"Teacher?" Ranna on her shoulder called Serius hesitantly. The teacher's calm attitude made the girl a little confused. "Don't you ask me why I chose to be the leader of the rebel army?"

Why did you choose to be the leader of the rebel army?Serius felt he knew the answer to that question better than Janna, so why ask?

"I'm not surprised by your choice." I just didn't expect it to be so early.Seleus silently added in his heart.

"Doesn't the teacher object?" Ranna was very curious, obviously her father clamored to kick her out of the house when she knew that she had become the leader of the rebel army.Ranna has no doubts about the teacher's concern for her, which is why she is curious about the teacher's attitude.

"As long as you feel that you are doing the right thing, and in fact doing something that is beneficial to the world, why should I object? Or in other words, just relying on my opposition can quench your blood?" Seleu Si looked at the students on his shoulders with complicated eyes. "The only thing I can do is to silently support your decision behind the scenes and pray for your peace."

The girl didn't speak, it was the first time she received encouragement from her elders, which made her feel very surprised and... moved.

"Thank you, teacher..." the girl whispered.

......

"Are you leaving?" Seleus, who was lighting a barbecue, looked at the girl who suddenly came to bid him farewell, and for a moment didn't know what to say.

"Yes, teacher." Holding a steel spear, Ranna, a girl in silver armor, stood in front of Serius, her figure was as tall and straight as the spear in her hand.

"Have you considered it clearly?" Seleus's gaze was fixed on a pair of firm eyes. Even if he hadn't received an answer, he knew the answer to the question.

"Of course!" The firm tone reflected the girl's unwavering determination.

"Do you know that France hasn't won even one victory for eight years?" Seleus didn't know why he asked such a question. He hoped that someone could bring peace to the world. The way of the savior of the country is educating Jeanne.

But when he really saw that the little girl who got along day and night was about to embark on the road of no return, he still couldn't help but wanted to stop it.

He clearly knew that his words were of no use to this girl who had already made up her mind, and knew that the girl was a born saint, but he couldn't help it...

"Yes, I am very clear." As expected, the girl's determination is unchangeable.

"Reason! Give me a reason!" Serius' words were a little tough.

"The times are wrong, and someone needs to correct this war that seems to be going on forever. I don't think I will be successful, but some things need to be done. Even if it is only a little bit, I want to use it Use your own power to reverse this world that cannot see the light. And..."
