Synopsis: Endless Shuttle

Rumo's hair grew frantically, and the scarlet pupils opened between the hair's gaps, and then pierced into the ground like a sword.

It happened that Rope was busy, and no matter what Nyarlathotep wanted to do, the girl would be very happy to do it if she could give her a little bit of trouble.

——The nature of fighting in the evil god's nest is fully revealed in Nyogda.

Chapter [-] The Saintess of France, the undercurrents behind the war

The church in Fuyuki City was a little noisy, and the rustling conversations and footsteps of monks and nuns continued from midnight to now.

Thanks to this, Karen stayed on the bench in the main hall without closing her eyes all night, doing prayers to pass the time.Her delicate face revealed a tired look, staying up late was the enemy no matter what kind of girl.

However, Karen is now more worried about her grandfather's health than herself.As the supervisor, Kotomine Risei had to deal with a lot more than she was paddling.

On the first night of the Holy Grail War, the battle of the Servants took place.Moreover, the secret principle of the Holy Grail War was changed, causing an unprecedented catastrophe in this remote city.In any case, the church cannot sit idly by about such mysterious matters, otherwise it would violate the dogma of "God so loves the world".

"The Holy Grail War, is it such a terrible thing..."

Karen murmured, looking at the back of her hand wrapped in white bandages.

The outsider and grandfather lied that it was a scratch, but the truth hidden under that bandage was something Kotomine Risei had always banned her from touching.

Holy Grail War, Master's Qualification—Command Spell.

Karen Aldecia is already in the midst of this Holy Grail War.

However, something is different... that Servant...

"Master, it's better to take a rest, your face is very bad."

The gentle female voice brought Karen's attention back to reality.

Beside her, the golden fluorescent light was gradually gathering, and the heroic spirit appeared in the empty church main hall in the form of a girl.

The girl had blond hair that almost reached her legs, her long hair was braided behind her back, a strange hair ornament on her forehead, and she was also wearing medieval combat armor.

"Ruler..."

Karen read out the rank of her Heroic Spirit.

Not belonging to the seven major ranks, the arbiter and bystander of the Holy Grail War - but unexpectedly fits the future responsibilities of Karen.

"You can call me Joan of Arc or Jeanne when no one is there."

The braided girl smiled, lifted her armor and sat down beside Karen.

"Until now, I can't believe it. I didn't expect to be able to summon the saintess of France. I thought it would be some insignificant role in history." Carlene laughed at herself.

"Holy maiden or something..."

Joan of Arc shook her head, as if she was a little helpless at the name that the world gave her.

Being wronged in life and being burned at the stake, but being canonized after death, is there anything more funny than this?

"According to common sense, Master, you are unlikely to have the right to participate in the Holy Grail War. It's just that this time because of my responsibilities, I will choose someone who is closer to me to come as the eighth-rank Ruler."

The situations in which Ruler is summoned are roughly divided into two types: one is that the form of the Holy Grail War is very special, and the result is unknown, that is, the Holy Grail judges that Ruler is needed; the other is that the influence of the Holy Grail War may distort the world Case.

This coming is of the second type.

However, unlike the rule "Ruler was summoned by the Great Holy Grail", this time, Joan of Arc Dalke of France was under the order of restraint, and even the restraint could not be ascertained exactly, and the threat that distorted the world.

- "Investigate, then rectify."

The entire command was only a short sentence, but Joan of Arc understood the seriousness of the problem.

In fact, just as the Holy Maiden had expected, on the first night of the Holy Grail War, strong anomalies and disasters occurred in this city.

Very unknown.

"Closer?"

Hearing this, Karen's golden eyes narrowed, looking at Joan of Arc with a half-smile.

"It's a supreme honor. But I don't think there is any "closeness" between me and the Saintess. What are you referring to? "

"Hmm..." Joan touched her cheek with her finger, looking very cute.

"Except for the premise of longing for the Holy Grail, the nuns in the church... and the same women, right?"

"It's that simple?"

"It's pretty close."

"The 'closeness' that the Holy Maiden said, grabbed a lot in this world, and I can't even count them all. "

"But you are the only one in this city, Karen." Jeanne smiled softly, as if seeing through Karen's inner thoughts, and then tolerantly forgave her sarcasm.

But it was this gesture that made Karen feel uncomfortable from the bottom of her heart.

Her character and this saint are two extremes.

False piety and true piety, false love and true love—

"—That's it." Karen dropped the topic.

"Ruler, after you have seen it yourself, how is the situation along the coast of Xinduhai?"
