The sky gradually darkened.
Until nightfall, the wyverns that had been flying back and forth in the sky of France returned to their nests and disappeared.
Gil? Drude? The army led by Ray chose to camp in such a situation. After setting up the camp in an area that was not easy to see from the sky, he let the soldiers camp on the spot and began to rest.
Rozen and Matthew followed the army and settled in the camp.
And now, Matthew was reporting to Chaldea.
"I see, I understand the situation now."
Roman appeared on the projection screen, and his expression looked a little cautious.
"The Dragon Witch who led the wyverns to ravage the whole territory of France … This is indeed abnormal enough to form a singularity."
Whether it was the appearance of a sub-dragon species that did not belong to this era in broad daylight and the destruction of several cities, or the resurrection of the Saintess who was executed at the stake and the murder of the king of France, it was a major event that was enough to turn history upside down.
But these events did not appear in the historical records, proving that this was an anomaly that should not have appeared in this era. The stain of this world must be removed.
Matthew reported these situations to Roman and said.
"Now, we are working with Gil? Drude? France's elite troops led by Marshal Ray are acting together. This is senpai's instruction. "
Due to the murder of Charles VII, France was ravaged by the wyverns. Now the whole territory of France was in complete chaos. Even the army was not organized. If it weren't for England's army that was also afraid of the Dragon Witch, with France's current situation, it would be easily taken down by England and become a defeated country in the Hundred Years' War.
In view of this, at present, France's army was reorganized by Marshal Gil, and they were trying to organize effective resistance, looking for opportunities to recapture the ravaged land from the Dragon Witch.
In other words, the enemy of France's army was also the Dragon Witch.
And the enemy of the enemy may not necessarily be a friend, but they could cooperate with each other.
So Rozen asked Jill to go with him.
"… That's fine too. The fact that you're able to fight against those monsters is a very valuable combat force to us. As long as you're willing to help us, we can provide you with food and weapons."
Jill, after much deliberation, agreed.
"Very good, this is the right decision," Roman nodded, then asked in confusion, "By the way, where is Rozen now?"
"Senior …?" Matthew's expression suddenly became a little subtle, and she said with a very complicated expression, "Senior is busy right now, so it's not convenient."
"Inconvenient?" Roman was stunned.
Just when Roman was about to ask something, an extremely miserable howl of pain resounded from the forest not far from the campsite, and it shocked all the soldiers in the campsite.
"What … what is this sound!?"
Roman was also frightened.
Matthew, on the other hand, found it hard to speak.
"Actually, Senior is conducting research on the Wyvern we caught alive today."
What exactly is the content of this research?
Roman wanted to ask this question, but when he heard the ghostly wails and wolf howls again, the corners of his mouth twitched in fear.
"Forget it, I'd better not ask so much."
Roman cowered like a coward.
Matthew also changed the topic.
"Although Senpai is … busy, he still asked me to ask the doctor a few questions." Matthew asked, "Excuse me, doctor, is the resurrection of Joan of Arc real or fake?"
That was the first question that needed to be figured out.
Because …
"Senpai said that the resurrection of the dead is the field of magic, and it may even be something that even magic can't touch. If we only rely on the power of the Holy Grail, it is not enough." Matthew said, "In that case, is the resurrection of Joan of Arc just a misunderstanding?"
The implication was that Dragon Witch might not be Jeanne d 'Arc, or someone was pretending to be Jeanne d' Arc.
"I'm not sure about this." Roman shook his head and said, "We haven't seen Joan of Arc with our own eyes, and our understanding of Joan of Arc is limited to historical records, so we can't interpret this answer. But Rozen is right, even with the help of the Holy Grail, it is difficult to resurrect the dead."
However, even if Joan of Arc couldn't be resurrected, it didn't mean that the Dragon Witch was not Joan of Arc.
"After all, Joan of Arc is likely to be a servant." Roman raised this point and said: "There is no past and future in the Throne of Valor. If Jeanne, as a Valor, was summoned to the era of her life, it is entirely possible."
If that was the case, it was no wonder that people thought Joan of Arc was resurrected.
In any case, most people didn't know the existence of Valor and servants. When they saw Joan of Arc, they would naturally mistakenly think that she was resurrected.
"Senpai thinks so too." Matthew agreed with Roman's statement and said, "If that's the case, senpai also has a question. Will the saintess who saved the country be the kind of person who would take revenge on the country just because of the slander and frame-up?"
"This …" Roman was a little hesitant, then said, "Although it is not impossible, it is hard to believe that the saintess will be such a hero."
The so-called saintess who saved the country was not just a nice name.
According to historical records, Joan of Arc was originally just a peasant girl in a remote mountain village in France. Because she was a Catholic, she prayed sincerely. One day, she suddenly heard the Lord sighing at the killing of human beings, so she decided to go out of the village.
Such a little girl from the countryside suddenly wanted to lead the army to war, and it was conceivable that she would encounter doubts, ridicule, and obstacles.
But Joan of Arc still did not give up. In just two years, she achieved many miraculous reversals and won many victories. Even after being captured, the village girl who didn't know anything except the prayers written in the Bible could use theologians as her opponents. She argued on the spot, which made the process of punishing her as a heretic very difficult.
"Marshal Gill also said that the Saintess was a devout believer who kept asking for a cross from those who scolded her as a witch even when she was forced to the execution platform."
Matthew said with a straight face.
"Such a saint should not have become a heroic spirit with resentment, and eventually retaliate against the country."
In summary, Rozen actually didn't believe that Dragon Witch was Joan of Arc.
More importantly …
"Senpai said that Joan of Arc did not have a legend related to the dragon." Matthew said word by word, "And summoning a dragon is the most advanced magic. Even a sub-dragon can't be summoned casually. Joan of Arc becoming the Dragon Witch and leading the dragon group is an anomaly in itself."
Unless …
"Unless the Dragon Witch has the Holy Grail in her hand."
