Chapter 69, Confluence

"Everyone, thank you for standing up for France...I thank you from the bottom of my heart."

It is clear that the backbone of the resistance is Joan of Arc, White Caster and Second Lieutenant Buwan Naba, and it is clear that the backbone of Chaldea is Fujimaru Ritsuka and Yagi Yussai. However, when Queen Mary came to the temporary command post with everyone, the entire

The atmosphere of the place has changed.

That noble aura naturally made her the focus of attention and the center of everyone's attention. This is a normal thing.

She has long been accustomed to being the protagonist in various occasions. As a queen, although she is not as popular as her husband Louis XVI, there are countless people who want to build relationships and take advantage of her pillow to climb up.

Twenty years ago, the newly married Queen Mary might have been like a little girl who was inexperienced in the world, enjoying such idol-like treatment, but now, she has long since become a calm queen.

In addition, having Dion accompanying her made her suppress her excitement even more and wanted to show a reliable side in front of her.

As she thanked her, the atmosphere finally relaxed. Second Lieutenant Buwanaba finally understood why the orderly soldier looked at a loss before. It was not his fault, he himself didn't know what to do either.

To the French, Louis XVI must have been a sinner.

At that time, France was in chaos because of dissatisfaction with the ruling class such as the king.

In a monarchical country, the biggest problem lies in the monarch.

This is not necessarily a backward system. Any time a thing exists, it must have a reasonable meaning for its existence at that time.

The rise and fall of the monarchy must be due to the birth of a wise and powerful monarch, and it must also be due to the chaos of subsequent monarchs, which leads to serious conflicts in the country. The last monarch, whether he is excellent or mediocre,

Or a tyrant, they will definitely be dragged down by the internal injuries that have accumulated long ago.

Today's Louis XVI is such an example.

Before him, the conflicts in France had long been stimulated to an extreme.

Louis XVI wanted to reform, but he didn't know how to start. He was never a wise monarch, so he could only follow the trend.

However, for Robespierre and Lieutenant Bouwanaba and others, Louis XVI represents "feudal royal power" and is an existence that they should overthrow. People's hatred of feudal royal power has reached its peak and now they have to vent it out.

.

Therefore, when he saw Queen Mary, he felt very subtle.

Joan of Arc was okay, after all, she lived in a very early age, and she only had the basic common sense given by the Holy Grail and had no real sense of the fate of France.

"Everyone from Chaldea, we meet again."

Jeanne smiled and greeted Fujimaru Ritsuka.

As the conversation began, communication gradually took hold, and the previous atmosphere of being attracted to Queen Mary completely disappeared.

Joan of Arc took a quick look and found that all the soldiers around her had changed their appearance. She glanced around and finally landed on Martha. Joan of Arc looked at her seriously, which made Martha feel a little embarrassed.

.

"Excuse me, what's wrong with me?"

"You are...Mrs. Saint Martha! I really didn't expect...to see your true face here."

Although Joan of Arc did not really read the "Gospels" or the "New Testament" - because to be honest, Joan of Arc is not literate. How can you ask an illiterate person to read a book! But, Joan of Arc can gain revelation.

With virtue, coupled with the knowledge given by the Holy Grail, she still knows something about the [Saint].

Perhaps, in terms of popularity around the world, Joan of Arc is higher than Martha.

But from the perspective of official history, Martha was a person who truly served the Lord. She was incomparable to a village girl like herself who only listened to the Lord’s voice! Not only had she heard the Lord’s teachings, but she had also seen

The true face of the Lord even cooked for the Lord himself! What an honor this is!

Jeanne's eyes were full of respect, which made Martha feel embarrassed. She closed the cross staff with both hands, forced a smile on her face, and her eyebrows were stiff.

"That, yes, it is me. Hello, Joan of Arc."

"No, no, no, how dare I call myself a saint in front of you? It's embarrassing for me. You are the one who can drive away the evil dragon Tarask just by praying. It's really amazing! You are worthy of being a noble saint.

!I am too small compared to you..."

"Ah, ah... ah... just rely on prayer, that's how it is said by later generations... ah, hahaha, no, it's nothing... ahhaha."

Yagi Xuezai noticed that Martha seemed to be getting more and more embarrassed.

After thinking about it, she felt that Martha was probably embarrassed, and she thought to herself: Holy lady, you are definitely not the kind of person who talks about her great deeds all day long! She is a saint, if that's the case

If you exaggerate to promote yourself, you are no different from ordinary people! If you are praised like this by Joan of Arc, you will definitely feel embarrassed!

Thinking of this, Yagi Xuezai quickly took over the words and said:

"Now that everyone has gathered, let's talk about business. Regarding the enemies here, Qingji, do you have any impressions?"

As soon as Yagi Yukisai finished speaking, everyone changed the topic to business. Except Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu, these two people were very familiar with Yagi on weekdays, and they both looked at him with surprised expressions.

"what?"

Yagi felt a little uncomfortable.

"No... I just think that Yagi-senpai would say this kind of thing occasionally, when it comes to serious matters..."

Mashu complained in astonishment. Fujimaru Ritsuka nodded vigorously: "I thought senior would only ruin the atmosphere!"

"What nonsense are you talking about? Even I can read the atmosphere, okay? I have basic human abilities after all."

Qing Ji stopped talking. After all, the lady An Zhen who asked her to report the situation was not listening, so what else was she talking about? Turning her gaze and looking at the three people flirting (?), Qing Ji pouted.

, looking unhappy.

Not to mention here, Second Lieutenant Buwanaba had an expression of disbelief on his face. In the conversation just now, something seemed to have been mentioned that could not be ignored...

"That...could it be said that...the savior...is Joan of Arc..."

Yes, Martha clearly mentioned Joan of Arc just now, but Joan didn't pay attention for a moment and admitted it smoothly.

Realizing that she could no longer hide it, Joan smiled bitterly and took off her mask, revealing that familiar face.

"I'm sorry... because everyone gets scared when they see my face, so..."

Although Second Lieutenant Buwanaba was trembling as if on conditioned reflex, he still held on and said: "No, it's nothing. After so many days of joint actions, I know that you, you are not the Dragon Witch... but

, but...but my body...can't control it..."

Second Lieutenant Buwanaba's psychological trauma was too severe.

At first, he was attacked by the Dragon Witch and escaped.

Later, in Lyon, he was attacked by Vlad III again, and he was so scared that he wet his pants...

If anyone else had experienced this kind of experience, they would have been so scared that they would shut themselves up and never dare to fight again.

For example, Robespierre was insane and only lived in his own dreams.

Just when the atmosphere was awkward and everyone didn't know what time to say, suddenly, another messenger ran in with blood on his body. I didn't know if it was his or his teammate's.

"Report!! We have been discovered by the enemy! Lord Giorgios is resisting! Yes, it is the Dragon Witch! It is Joan of Arc who has come for revenge!"
