After that, the group decided to temporarily rest in the forest today and go to meet with Mashu tomorrow.

Even if Luo Zhen wanted to meet with Maschurch earlier, his magic power had not been fully restored, and secondly, because there were many people there, it was quite inconvenient to move. When he had just retreated from Orleans, if he acted rashly, he would be likely to be found by the pursued servants and targeted him.

After thinking about it for a while, Luo Zhen reluctantly admitted that it was not the time to act urgently, so he conveyed the meaning of this to Roman through the communicator and asked Roman to inform Marthu.

Naturally, Roman would not have any opinions. He perfectly showed his ability as a supporter and acted in a hurry.

To sum up, the group continued to hide in the forest and rest.

Since Mary and Amadeus had arrived in the forest in advance and had some understanding of the situation here, the two volunteered to take some responsibility.

"Although the servants do not need to eat, and as long as they provide magic, they are enough to survive, Lorelai is the master of human beings, and it is impossible not to eat."

Amadeus made his opening remark with such a sentence and went to hunt deep in the forest.

"Then I'll go get the water. A cute little deer I met here told me where I can drink water with confidence."

Mary said something unfamiliar and uneasy, and then left on her own.

Only Luo Zhen and Joan of Arc were left, one needed to recover the spent magic power and the other needed to recover the accumulated damage, which was inconvenient to move.

In this way, the sky gradually became late, making the dusk come.

Above the forest, the light of the sunset shines down, bringing a sad atmosphere.

Luo Zhen, who had been sitting cross-legged under a tree, then opened his eyes.

"The magic power has almost recovered."

After feeling the magic in his body, Luo Zhen nodded with satisfaction.

"Although it's just recovered 70% or 80% of the same, then it's up to the magic circuit to run on its own."

In this way, when you wake up tomorrow, your magic will be fully restored.

"I hope everything goes well with Mashu."

While thinking about his juniors, Luo Zhen couldn't help but murmur.

Such murmurs seemed to be heard.

"Is that person named Mashu your covenant follower?"

I saw that Joan of Arc had finished his rest at some time and was getting up from another tree, looking at Luo Zhen, and laughing softly.

Unlike the unruly and hatred Black Joan of Arc, the smile this saint usually shows looks very peaceful and gentle, which makes people a little fascinated.

"Yes." Luo Zhen narrowed her eyes, as if she was dazzling at Joan of Arc's smile, and said, "Are you okay?"

"Yes." Joan of Arc nodded and said honestly: "Because there is no obstacle to the recovery of the injury because it does not hurt the spirit core."

Generally speaking, the servant is like a living automatic doll. As long as he has magic power, all injuries will recover at an extremely fast speed unless the spirit core is damaged, or the spirit body is subjected to indelible severe damage.

Fortunately, since there is no master, he is a (Holy Grail) summoning himself. All servants, including Joan of Arc, provide magic power by (Holy Grail), and do not need to worry too much about the loss of magic power.

Since the magic is sufficient, Joan of Arc's injuries naturally don't need to take too much time to recover.

so…

"Even now, we can fight normally. Please use me without hesitation, Lord."

Joan of Arc made this point as if he were willing to do so.

"Is the Lord?"

Luo Zhen scratched his cheek.

Strictly speaking, Joan of Arc is not the person who is in Luo Zhen’s contract.

However, for the next battle, Luo Zhen also made a temporary contract request to Joan of Arc and his party, so that he could provide magic power and enhance their combat power, and also use spells to strengthen them.

In this way, it seems natural that Joan of Arc called Luo Zhen the Lord.

only…

"Since you call me the Lord, I have to ask again with all my due diligence."

Luo Zhen looked at Joan of Arc and spoke like this.

"Is this really good?"

This is a question I asked during the day.

And its implication is also very simple.

"Are you really going to fight for France again? Joan of Arc?"

Luo Zhen finally asked this question.

no way.

"Just as (the Dragon Witch) said, France betrayed you and sat down and watched you be stolen. What you desperately wanted to protect during your lifetime turned out to be like this. Even if you don't hate it, there is no reason to continue fighting to protect it, right?"

Luo Zhen looked at Joan of Arc and said this.

"Doesn't you really have a trace of hatred in your heart?"

This is what Luo Zhen has always wanted to ask Joan of Arc.

Joan of Arc fell into silence as if confused.

However, after a moment of silence, Joan of Arc answered Luo Zhen without hesitation.

"Yes."

Joan of Arc said so.

"There is no trace of hatred in my heart."

This answer without even hesitation made Luo Zhen completely stunned.

Luo Zhen even blurted out.

"Why?"

yes.

Why?

Why can you still stand up for them after being betrayed like this?

Luo Zhen didn't understand this.

But Joan of Arc's answer is still so concise.

"Because, I've accepted this ending long ago."

Joan of Arc raised his head and looked at the sunset. The sound slowly rang out as if it was coming from a distant place.

"I knew for a long time that I would be sentenced in the end."

This is not a prophecy, nor is it a prophecy in the future, but just a intuition in Joan of Arc's heart.

And such intuition will appear, and the reason is very simple.

"I am just a country girl who is ignorant of the world. I have never been a saint. After hearing the Lord's voice by chance, I left my hometown impulsively without even considering how many difficulties and obstacles there were ahead."

Joan of Arc whispered like he was talking to himself.

"As a result, in order to save the motherland, I took the lives of many people from the enemy country."

"As a result, in order to liberate people from the pain of war, I personally took away the hope of many enemies who fell under me."

"I left my hometown rashly and made a wish that I could not know the height of the sky, but the result was that my hands had already been stained with a lot of blood."

"If I don't get executed, that's abnormal."

Joan of Arc's statement made Luo Zhen open his mouth, but he couldn't even say a word.

That's it?

"Do you... feel that you are seriously guilty..."

Luo Zhen's tone was extremely heavy and extremely bitter.

The result was Joan of Arc's unthinking answer.

"Yes."
