However, this right of course undoubtedly made C Jill feel desperate to some extent.

"Although it wasn't me, the child found his wish in the end."

Recalling the last conversation and battle with the witch, Joan of Arc said aloud,

"For her, this must be some kind of redemption."

"Oh, how touching to say such noble words to my saint. But..."

The magic power of the Holy Grail exploded in an instant, and a book covered with human skin appeared out of thin air.The pages of the book turned automatically, and a huge magic circle was drawn on the ground.

"Don't worry, Jeanne, she just fell into a deep sleep temporarily. After I clear you up, she will come to me again...!!"

Huge octopus tentacles crawled out of the circle, and countless starfish-like monsters emerged from the void.

Lixiang knew about that book and these existences, after all, she had read fz before time travel.

"Is the demon summoned in the textbook of Spiral City?!"

"Oh! Does the master from the future know about this book that my best friend gave me?! It seems that the story of us has indeed been passed down to future generations, what an honor it is-yes, this is exactly mine Noble Phantasm, the magic book for summoning demons from another world! This is your next opponent, and this is not over yet!"

Those tentacles gathered together and turned into a terrifying sea monster as huge as Fafnir.

"My wish! The revenge of my saint! The Hundred Years War of the Evil Dragon is not over yet, let's experience it now!"

"Mere devil!"

Lixiang popped the black keys out of her hands, and she kept waving her hands to throw out the black keys continuously.When Black Key faced those sea monsters, it was like lava dripping on a glacier, easily digging a big hole in the sea monsters.

However, those big holes were filled in the next second.

"Oh, of course I know your power, Master of Chaldea. Demons and you are like water and fire. I already knew that demons are useless to you—but what about [infinite] demons?"

This is C Jill's countermeasure against Lixiang, the person who instantly purifies the vampire, which is the material war called "Infinity".

It’s okay to say that there are angels or monsters, but if demons, like undead and dead apostles, would be defeated by simple evolution as troops, then ordinary physical warfare would not be effective against Ritsuka——Zeng A certain Dead Apostle gathered an entire city's troops and couldn't hurt her at all.

However, C Jill's physical war is not [usual].

The Spiral City textbook that can infinitely summon sea monsters, and the Holy Grail that can provide almost unlimited magic power.

Although it is just an exaggeration, it can indeed be called [infinity] in a short period of time.

"I still need time to control this demon, so I will take my leave for the time being."

As Jill said so, he turned and walked into the body of the biggest sea monster.

After that, Siegfried also tried to slash the sea monster with his Noble Phantasm.Siegfried's Noble Phantasm indeed wiped out a large number of sea monsters with ease, but it could not break through the barrier called infinity after all.

As for the other servants... Except for Qing Ji, they all lack the means of sufficient firepower, and the sea monsters can deal with their attacks only by regenerating.As for Qing Ji, she just finished releasing the treasure and now she has no magic power for the time being.

Lixiang also tried to activate the temple remotely by relying on the black key thrown into the sea monster group, but the magic link was directly cut off by the sea monster.

"Tsk, personal survival type...is disgusting enough."

"Master, the attack is difficult to work, and our current state is not the best, we should retreat now."

"...that's the only way to go."

Therefore, Lixiang and the others had to temporarily choose to retreat.

34. The wicked do not need a savior

■Orléans French Army Camp

"That way the treatment is completely over."

Throwing away the [Healing] concept dress that has been used in his hand, Lixiang said to Mozart who received the treatment last.

Although the nun's costume on Tachika is also equipped with healing magic, but that thing can't be used directly like the card-shaped concept dress.It still has to consume the magic power stored in the clothes itself, Li Xiang is already thinking about whether to replace the healing with other functions.

'Forget it, the card type will always be used up, so just keep it just in case. '

"Is this the magic prop of the future? It's really amazing."

Sitting on the carpet of the tent prepared by the French army, Mozart turned his head and looked at the distant battlefield after confirming that he had been cured.

"Ah, ah, at the very end, something so incredible came out...By the way, isn't that bigger than Fafnir?"

"The size is about the same, right? But that sea monster has tentacles, so it might look a little bigger from a distance?"

[No, the current Sea Demon is probably bigger than Fafnir...it is growing. ]

At this moment, Lixiang remembered that the description of sea monsters in fz did contain the item [will continue to grow with the swallowed things].

[However, generally speaking, this kind of giant demon cannot be controlled...]

"Stupid, Roman, have you forgotten that the Holy Grail is in his hand?"

[...That's right, if you have enough magic power, it's not impossible to manipulate that sea monster! ]

"doctor."

Matthew on the side asked aloud,

"If, that Mr. Gilles de Rais successfully manipulated the Sea Demon..."

"Then needless to say~"

Mozart showed a wicked expression.

"He will become a monster that devours humans endlessly, and finally this country!"

Matthew was so frightened that his eyes widened, Lixiang gave Mozart a knife at this time.

"Don't scare our little eggplant casually—even if he doesn't control the sea monster, he can turn that big monster into something like this, right?"

"...That, senior." Matthew raised her hand weakly, "Actually, what you said was the scariest thing..."

"That's how the devil exists. He didn't do that but spent time controlling it, which shows that at least he didn't intend to destroy the country by himself—and he really wanted to kill us. And the sea demon , is the weapon he specially prepared for this purpose.”

"...I, don't understand."

Sitting on the ground with her legs crossed, Matthew whispered,

"Gill de Rais admires Miss Jeanne very much, right? Why does he want to destroy France protected by Miss Jeanne after becoming a servant?"

"In a nutshell, human beings are such troublesome creatures." Taking advantage of the good time when Matthew was sitting on the ground, Li Xiang stood up and reached out to touch her head, "In more detail... although memorizing history Books are good, but the person involved is here, let her talk about it."

So Matthew looked at Joan who was on the side.

Jeanne sighed.

"In that case, let me tell you something." She glanced at Lixiang, and then continued, "It's just right, let's take this as a confession."

What Joan of Arc subsequently tells is not a particularly complicated story.

It is better to say that the story is very old, because it has been told countless times by countless people.

He was originally just an ordinary nobleman and soldier... An ordinary nobleman in that era is a standard villain in modern times.

In short, Gilles de Rais, who was just an ordinary nobleman at the beginning, began to change after meeting the saint.He worshiped Joan of Arc as his saint, and took back Orleans together with Joan of Arc, so he was hailed as a "National Salvation Hero".

He also participated in the coronation ceremony of Charles VII with Joan of Arc, and the portrait is still intact until modern times.

The huge transformation from an ordinary nobleman to a national salvation hero may be to some extent the existence of Joan of Arc that made him believe that God does exist.

However, reality is bitter, and it is impossible for a story called reality to stop writing at the most beautiful moment.

After that, in 1431, the saint was executed as a witch.The man thus lost his God, became fascinated by black magic, and finally began to engage in evil deeds.

He kidnapped, abused, and tortured young teenagers in the territory, and continued to commit evil deeds to blaspheme God in order to prove that God does not exist.

"...Eight years passed like this, and Gilles de Rais was executed in 1440."

"That's the part." Tachika muttered under his breath, "The part that made me hate (the moon's) Gilles de Rais."

"Huh? Master, did you say something?"

"Nothing... I can't even say that, but it's not important."

Lixiang didn't like the role of Gilles de Rais in her previous life.

It wasn't because he killed people, although there was a factor of that too.But what made Lixiang in his previous life hate him was his self-reported criminal motive in the works.

'Isn't that kind of like saying [those children died because of Joan]? '

It's basically shirking responsibility, so it's annoying.

"So, what does Mademoiselle Joan think?"

Matthew asked subconsciously.

She didn't understand why she asked such a question, she just wanted to know the answer for some reason.

"...I don't regret my ending, and I don't think his fate should be changed. Even so, regarding his twisted fate after meeting me...For those children who became victims, I Still feel sad."

"...As expected, I still don't understand."

"This is the life of Miss Jeanne and that guy." Lixiang walked to Matthew and sat down and said, "Maybe you can understand it after listening to it once? Just remember it now-then, next, we should find a way to make it clear." We need to get rid of that sea monster and Gilles de Rais inside."

"Little Eli, I have a great idea!"

Elizabeth raised her hand and cried,

"Let's use the Noble Phantasm to bomb together!"

"Idiot!" Qing Ji closed the folding fan and said, "How could such a random method be possible—"

[Looking at the current situation, this plan is indeed the most suitable. ]

"Eh?"

"Eh--!?"

Not only Qing Ji, but even Elizabeth who said this did not expect her battle plan to be adopted.

[No, if there is a better battle plan, I will choose that one too...]

"I have."

Lixiang said,

"Let's have a smarter battle plan."

[Eh? ! ]

"Before that, I need to confirm the feasibility of the plan——Roman, did Chaldea scan the sea monster?"

[Details are out. ]

"Is there any conceptual defense on that guy?"

[no no no...]

"Then there's no problem—everyone just needs to find a way to expose Gilles de Rais in Sea Demon. I'll break through him, his magic book, and the Holy Grail together."

■Location of Orleans Sea Devil

"Oh?"

Surrounded and protected by the small sea monsters, the huge sea monsters uttered the sound of cjill.

"I just controlled this demon, and you came here unexpectedly. It really saved me a lot of effort."

"Did you save the effort of finding us and killing us?"

Joan took the initiative to step forward.

Because the other party was her former friend, Joan of Arc felt that she had an obligation to do so.

"That's right, I have to fulfill my saint's wish." Jill, who controls the giant sea monster, continued, "However, if you don't hinder me, there is no need to fight. What do you think? Together we will bring this country..."

"Jill!"

Joan interrupted C Jill's speech.

"You said that you planned to resurrect me from the beginning, right?!"

"Of course! I don't want anything else!"

"If that's the case, then you are mistaken! Even if I am resurrected, I will never become [Dragon Witch]!! My ending may be said to be regrettable, but I am not Might hate this country we saved together!! So stop it! I don't want this to happen!"

"...You are so gentle, Jeanne. You are so gentle...It is because of this kindness that you will forget it, right?"

At this moment, what gushed out of the huge sea demon, C Jill, was the resentment that was so strong in the past that it even affected the people around Dao.
