After breakfast, Ryuga and Jeanne walked towards the outskirts of Sigishvara.
In the outskirts of this town, there was a church built on a hillside. As long as they walked up the stairs, they would soon reach the church.
That was the base camp of the Red Team in this Holy Grail War.
"Church … Could it be the Holy Church?"
Jeanne looked up at the church standing above the stairs and couldn't help but fall into deep thought. "Among the masters of the Red Team this time, is there a participant of the Holy Church?"
The Holy Church.
It was one of the two major organizations in the Inner World that could be compared to the Magic Association. It was an organization formed by believers of God. Its influence was centered in Western Europe and radiated to the whole world. They even had a place in the island countries in the far east.
Although it was essentially an organization that spoke of God's love and saved the poor, in order to hunt heretics, the church also had a special operation mechanism.
By the way, the heretics in the eyes of the church were not only demons, vampires, and the like. Even magicians were one of the heretics in their eyes. This was because most of the believers of the church believed that magic, which could distort the rules of the world, should be a truth that only God could master.
Originally, the Holy Church and the Magic Association were like fire and water, but recently, the relationship between the two eased a lot, and there were even opportunities for cooperation.
The Holy Grail War was one of the stages where the two sides cooperated.
In the general Holy Grail War, although most of the battles were fought by magicians, in order to reasonably manage the Holy Relic, the Holy Church would usually send priests under their command to the location of the Holy Grail War.
However, the priests generally didn't participate directly, but acted as a kind of supervisor, supervising the progress of the Holy Grail War.
But this Holy Grail War was obviously different.
Although this was a war between the Black Team and the Red Team, it was also a war between the Yugidomirenia and the Magic Association.
Because of Darnik's unilateral declaration of war against the Magic Association, the Yugidomirenia and the Magic Association were on opposite sides, which was the fuse of this Holy Grail War.
Darnik's original intention was to use the power of the heroic spirit summoned by the Holy Grail to become independent from the Magic Association and establish a new Magic Association in an attempt to replace it.
After the Magic Association knew that this was no different from a provocation, they immediately sent magicians to annihilate the Yug-Domirenia. There were a total of 50 people, and each of them was an elite.
However, Danek had already expected this to happen. So, taking advantage of the fact that the Holy Grail War was about to begin, he summoned Vlad III in advance and killed 49 people in half a minute.
The last person snuck into the fortress and activated the hidden mechanism of the Great Holy Grail — in other words, the Holy Grail War between seven knights and seven knights.
After the start of the Holy Grail War, the Magic Association naturally sent some people over. Together with the priests of the Church of Holy Light, they formed the seven people of the red team and officially started a camp war with the black team, the Yugomirenia.
Among them, there were six magicians from the Magic Association and one priest from the Holy Church. These seven people were the masters of the red team. This was the information that Ryuga had obtained from Fiore.
At this moment, the seven members of the red team were using Sigishvara as their stronghold, preparing to deal with the seven members of the black team in Tulifas.
At the foot of the mountain.
"I heard that you are also a Catholic."
Ryuga lifted his foot and walked up the stairs while asking Jeanne, who was behind him, "You should be able to deal with the priests of the Church of Holy Light, right?"
After all, she was a person who was conferred the title of Saintess by the Holy Church. It was inevitable for her to have a kind heart.
"Don't underestimate me."
Jeanne followed behind him and walked up the stairs. At the same time, she calmly said, "I was also a person who experienced the hundred-year war when I was alive. My hands are also stained with a lot of blood."
That was true.
Although she was a Saintess, she came out of the war. She even served as the leader of the army for two years. There were a lot of people who were willing to listen to her command. Even if they were unwilling, their hands must be stained with blood.
"However, are you sure you want to break into the Church so directly?"
Jeanne couldn't help but ask Ryuga, "You should be able to perceive it too. In this Church, the number of servants is definitely not a small number. Are you going to deal with all of them alone?"
According to her privilege of perceiving servants, even now, there were at least three servants in the Church, and there might be servants who were rushing back. Breaking in alone was almost no different from courting death.
She knew that Ryuga was very strong, but the servants were not to be underestimated, especially with their noble phantoms, which had the power to turn the tables. It was too reckless to rush in alone.
"I'm just testing them."
Ryuga didn't care much, "I don't expect to kill a few people this time. As long as I can find out their real names or their strength, it will be a good harvest."
Because of the existence of command spells, it was difficult to kill a few servants in the early stages of the Holy Grail War. Basically, when the command spells were almost exhausted, the servants would leave the battlefield.
Of course, there was no lack of the ability to isolate the command spells, or the strength gap was too big. Under the strength gap that was enough to determine life and death, the command spells couldn't save the servants who were killed in seconds.
"Speak of the devil."
When the two of them walked up the stairs together, Ryuga suddenly narrowed her eyes and said, "Someone is waiting for us in front."
Hundreds of stairs flashed past. Two minutes later, the two of them climbed to the top of the stairs and came to the front of the Church's gate.
The figure of a servant had been standing there for a long time. The momentum on his body was released without any concealment. The whole person exuded a sense of arrogance.
He had short grass green hair and golden eyes. His appearance could be said to be handsome. He seemed to be in his early twenties.
He was wearing a black suit and a silver light armor. There was a long red scarf around his neck. His figure was tall and full of oppression. His whole body was muscular, exuding a strong aura.
In his hand, he was holding a cross spear with a black handle and a bright silver blade. It looked a bit like a javelin.
"Oh, although I was asked to come out to greet the guests, I didn't expect to have to wait for so long!"
The man with short grass green hair opened his eyes. There was an unruly smile on his face. His whole person exuded the aura of a first-class warrior.
"I heard that you are the guy who defeated our Lancer, right? There are not many people who can defeat the hero who gave alms. I am very interested. Let's have a good fight! "
