She was actually looking forward to something like this happening.

After all, this means that she has taken another step forward in her status as a "girlfriend."

"Brother...do you really like me dressing up like this?"

"Then what do you say?"

Ian bent down slightly and rested his head on his sister's shoulder.

"Do you want me to prove it again?"

"Okay..." Jeanne licked her lips, "Brother can prove it as many times as he wants."

"Later."

Ian held his sister's hand from left to right.

"Don't you have to go to church today?"

"We have to leave early."

"Eh... that's right..."

Joan's expression looked a little worried.

Ian's expression was also complicated.

after all--

Once a lie begins, there is no turning back.

This is an endless road.

[You and Jeanne left the cabin. 】

[You and Jeanne arrived on the road to Donremi Village. 】

[Although she considers herself your girlfriend, Joan of Arc still pays great attention to her behavior outside. 】

[She doesn’t want to cause unnecessary trouble to you—for example, the brother who bullies your sister. 】

[So in the eyes of others, you are just a brother and sister with a relatively good relationship. 】

[As you imagined, Jeanne's dress attracted the attention of many villagers. 】

[But no one dares to make sarcastic comments about this - after all, she is now considered a hero who saved Donremi Village. 】

[They even respect Joan of Arc in this outfit. 】

[This seems like a good start. 】

[But you know the real test is yet to come. 】

[The reaction of the church people is the core issue. 】

In front of you is the thick door of the church.

Ian knew that once he opened the door, there would be no turning back from the saintly lies he had weaved for his sister.

but--

He didn't feel the slightest hesitation.

If this can really draw a bright enough future for his sister Joan of Arc.

He doesn't mind being a complete liar.

however--

Ian made up his mind to enter the church, but Joan hesitated.

She looked at the door that she had pushed open countless times, and her hands were trembling.

[You noticed this. 】

[You realize that Jeanne seems to be afraid of something. 】

[You know you can never act like you didn’t see it. 】

"Jeanna, what's wrong with you?"

Ian held his sister's hand and said softly.

"Why don't you go in?"

"Brother." Joan lowered her head in response to Ian's question, "I'm a little scared."

"Afraid?" Ian comforted his sister by touching her head, "What's there to be afraid of?"

"Isn't this how you usually go in?"

"Why are you suddenly scared this time?"

"Because today is different."

Joan of Arc looked nervously at the nun's uniform she was wearing.

"I...haven't read the books that the nuns want to read."

"If you go in wearing this kind of clothes... you will be said to be blaspheming the Lord, right?"

[What Jeanne said is actually something you are worried about. 】

[But you know you can never behave like her at this moment. 】

【You are her source of courage. 】

[If even you show cowardice, she will be unable to move forward. 】

"Jeanne."

Ian looked at his rather nervous sister.

"Why do you think you are blaspheming the Lord?"

"Is it just because you haven't read those books?"

"Yes, yes." Jeanne nodded.

"If you want to become a nun, you have to read those books!"

"Then -" Ian asked Joan of Arc.

"Jean, tell me, what is the ultimate purpose of reading these books?"

“To communicate with the Lord.”

"Is that 'angel' someone sent to you by the Lord?"

"Correct."

"Isn't that enough?" Ian smiled lightly.

"Since you read those books to communicate with the Lord."

"And the Lord has now sent an 'angel' to see you."

"Does that mean you don't need those so-called books to communicate with the Lord?"

"It doesn't matter if you don't read it."

"Eh?!"

Jeanne's pupils dilated slightly.

It can be seen that she has never tried to think about problems from her brother's perspective.

"Then I am..."

"You are now a qualified nun." Ian answered directly in the affirmative.

"What you usually do, let's do it now."

"And-" Ian's eyes became a little colder.

"If anyone dares to tell you what to do later."

"I will definitely make him suffer."

"do not!"

"Brother, please don't do this!"

Encouraged, Joan regained her courage.

"I understand!"

"I will work hard!"

【All beginnings are hard. 】

[And once you get started, the remaining difficulties are not that difficult. 】

[The dragon exorcism incident gave Joan of Arc a very good reputation. 】

[What she worried about didn't happen at all. 】

[No one in the church raised any objection to her nun's dress. 】

[In their eyes, Joan of Arc at this moment is a saint who has met an 'angel' and is a messenger of the Lord. 】

[They very much welcome Joan of Arc to change into a black and white nun's uniform - because this is more in line with the image of a saint they want. 】

[And Joan of Arc, who sensed this atmosphere, no longer showed any timidity. 】

[She very much hopes that she can show her excellent side in front of you. 】

[She guided everyone with the sacred words that she barely understood, and achieved a sacred and harmonious singing scene. 】

[No one knows that the nun named Joan of Arc has never read any related books at all. 】

[But no one cares about this - at this moment, as long as someone is willing to come out and guide the faith, it is enough. 】

[But what Joan of Arc is leading all of this doesn’t know. 】

[Actually, you have quietly left the church. 】

[You have something you want to confirm. 】

"Won't you finish listening to her prayer?"

Fafnir's voice came from inside the pendant.

"Don't you most want to see her become popular?"

"That's true." Ian confirmed his Dragon Face statement.

"But now is not the time to enjoy this."

"What I have to do is not done yet."

"Oh?" Fafnir was a little surprised.

"What's the matter?"

Ian doesn't intend to hide anything from the other side of himself.

He explained directly:

"I was thinking...if mother can separate us from the human side and the dragon side."

"That--"

Ian looked at the mansion not far away where he and his sister once lived - it was already overgrown with weeds.

"Could she also know some magic?"

【This is an era where magic exists. 】

[Magic can accomplish some seemingly incredible things. 】

[If you want to separate you as a human from Fafnir as a dragon, you will definitely use this. 】

[You are convinced that your mother is a magician. 】

[And this is indeed the case. 】

[You found some dusty magic books in the basement of the old mansion. 】
