No matter what kind of competition it was, the referee should have a transcendent status.
Anyone who contradicted the referee should be punished according to the extent. Only in this way could the referee's majesty be shown, and the referee's judgment would have enough weight to convince the public.
If the referee didn't even care when a player collided with her, then her dignity as a referee would be swept to the ground. If anyone dared to bully her, then her judgment itself would have no power to speak of. Who would listen to her?
Such a judge, rather than a referee, would be more appropriate to say that it was a third party outside of the black and red teams.
"Do you believe that if you don't pay any attention to the matter of the Red Lancer killing in front of you, then the red team will definitely come to trouble you one after another in the future?"
Ryuga looked at the blonde girl in front of him and said coldly, "Your real name is Jeanne, right? I recognize your merits in saving the country, but do you really have the experience of being a referee? "
Ryuga had never been a referee, but he at least knew what a referee should be like.
But this Saintess … She might have the heart to treat both sides fairly, but she probably didn't even know what a real referee should be like.
After all, she was an ancient person. Even if she had the common sense given by the Great Holy Grail, she knew where her duty was, but her thinking was limited. After all, her thinking was different from modern people.
Besides, was a selfless person like the Saintess really suitable to be a selfless referee?
Did the Great Holy Grail really choose the right person?
"This … this …"
Under Ryuga's repeated questioning, even Jeanne couldn't help but be stunned. Her delicate face that seemed to be flawless couldn't help but blush slightly. She couldn't say a word for a long time.
Even she had to admit that what Ryuga said was indeed very reasonable.
Her previous move of not intervening in the battle, although it seemed fair, was actually picking up sesame seeds and throwing away watermelons. She picked up the fairness in front of her, but threw away the greater fairness.
If she couldn't even maintain the dignity of a referee, then even if the battle in front of her was fair, for the entire Holy Grail War, what fairness was there to speak of?
Compared with the fairness of a battle, perhaps the dignity of the referee was the real guarantee of fairness?
"… You do have a point."
Jeanne lowered her head and pondered for a long time. In the end, she had to admit this. Taking a deep breath, she abandoned the hesitation and slight unwillingness in her heart and sincerely apologized to Ryuga.
"Perhaps I really didn't handle this matter well. I'm sorry, I'll think of a way to remedy it."
Although she said that, she still felt a little strange.
She was clearly the Ruler, the one chosen by the Great Holy Grail. Why did she have to lower her head and admit her mistake to the Black Saber, one of the contestants?
For a time, Jeanne's heart was like a bottle of mixed feelings, and it became extremely complicated.
"You don't have to apologize to me. After all, I'm not your master."
Ryuga shook her head and did not accept Jeanne's apology. Then she changed the topic and talked about business without any foreshadowing.
"Although Black's order is for me to rope you in, this matter itself still depends on your thoughts … I'm going to find the Red Lancer next. What do you plan to do?"
Karna had just been seriously injured by him, and it was absolutely impossible for him to recover in a short time.
Since that was the case, they couldn't let go of this good opportunity. They had to try and see if they could kill him and make him leave. After all, he was indeed a strong enemy. The sooner he left, the better it would be for the black side.
"I won't be biased toward Black or Red."
Jeanne gave an answer without much hesitation. Although she did learn from Ryuga, this was not a reason for her to be biased.
It was because she thought Ryuga's words were very reasonable that she was more determined to maintain fairness.
"However, I plan to find the master of the Red Lancer. I have to find out why he wants to kill me."
Jeanne turned to speak again, but she was discouraged and sighed softly.
"However, although my privilege allows me to know the location of Lancer, I don't know where its master is … It may be a little difficult to find its master."
The Ruler class had a lot of privileges.
In addition to being able to see through the servant's real name, she could also perceive the servant's location.
As long as the servant was within ten kilometers of her, she could accurately know the location of the other party. Even Assassin's aura could not be concealed from her.
In other words, as long as she walked around Tulifas, the battlefield, she would definitely be able to find the Red Lancer. However, she could not directly find the location of the Red Lancer's master.
After all, if the master of the opposite side was vigilant and worried that someone would come to the door, for the sake of safety, he might be more inclined to prefer to hide and not stay with his own servant. A servant that was heavily injured might not be able to protect its own safety.
"I can find it."
Ryuga raised her eyebrows slightly, then raised her finger and pointed to her eyes. "My magic eyes are the most advanced Future Vision. I can perfectly achieve any result I want. It's easy to find the master and servant of the Red Lancer."
"If you're willing, we can work together to deal with Red Team Lancer."
Jeanne suddenly understood.
Indeed, she could also find the skill [Future Vision] from Ryuga's ability value panel, and this skill actually included the Divine Realm's magic eyes, which really shocked her.
Because this meant that in the battle with the Red Lancer just now, he actually did not use his full strength at all. Otherwise, maybe even the golden armor that was difficult to destroy would not be able to protect Karna.
"I see. Then let me borrow the power of your magic eyes, but I won't return the favor."
Jeanne agreed very calmly. "Moreover, I won't take the initiative to be the enemy of the Red Lancer without confirming that the master of the Red Lancer is hostile to me. Is that okay?"
"Deal."
Ryuga nodded indifferently.
Being able to act together with the Ruler was a deterrent in itself. Even if she would not act together with him, her identity itself had a special value.
"Then I'll pack my luggage first … Ah."
Jeanne just turned around, then her whole body could not help but freeze. Looking at the suitcase in front of her, her face showed a tired look.
"Why did this happen again …?"
Ryuga looked over.
Jeanne's suitcase had been broken at some point. All kinds of clothes and sundries inside were scattered on the ground, and many of them had signs of being burned, probably caused by Karna's first surprise attack.
There were even private clothes such as stockings and underwear, and it looked obvious that they could not be worn … The stockings were all black, and the underwear was a set of white and a set of pink.
"Please don't look!"
After noticing Ryuga's gaze, Jeanne suddenly came to her senses. While a slight blush appeared on her face, she immediately cast an oppressive look at Ryuga.
Her fingers were raised at some point, as if she was going to pierce Ryuga's eyes.
