Regarding the existence of Jeanne d 'Alter, Rozen did not have much rejection in the first place.
Although in the first singularity, the two were mortal enemies and had fought each other, and Jeanne d 'Alter had even done such cruel things, ravaging the whole of France into ruins and killing countless people, Rozen had never felt disgusted by such a Jeanne.
Perhaps, before the true identity of Jeanne d 'Alter was revealed, Rozen had regarded Jeanne d' Alter as an object that he could not coexist with. However, after learning that Jeanne d 'Alter was just a fake created by Gil d' Rais, and even her hatred, life, and existence itself were like a mirage, short-lived. Rozen only had sympathy for Jeanne d 'Alter.
As the saying goes, a pitiful person must have a hateful side, but Jeanne d 'Alter's hateful side was something that had been forged.
Compared with Jeanne d 'Alter, Matthew's fate was considered good.
At least, Matthew grew up healthily in Chaldea, and she also had value and meaning to her existence. Even if she would eventually die, she would die of old age and could leave without any regrets.
On the other hand, Jeanne d 'Alter did not have any so-called growth, nor did she have any value and meaning to her existence. Not only was her identity borrowed, her life was borrowed, and her hatred was borrowed. Even her existence itself was ambiguous. She was just a fake created by Gil d' Rais to satisfy his momentary pleasure.
It could be said that the birth of Jeanne d 'Alter was a complete coincidence, and it was a coincidence that no one expected, and no one would expect.
The only person who hoped for the birth of Jeanne d 'Alter was Gil d' Rais, who had fallen into the evil path.
However, what Gil d 'Rais really hoped for was for the Saintess to turn into an avenger and take revenge on the so-called gods and their people. What he wanted was for the Saintess to turn into a witch, not Jeanne d' Alter.
In other words, Gil d 'Rais hoped that Jeanne d' Alter would be like Altoria, a reversal, and not another Jeanne d 'Alter.
Unfortunately, as the most famous saint and saintess in the world, Jeanne d 'Arc could not be reversed. There was no dark side to her at all. She was destined to be a holy and pure existence.
Therefore, Gil de Rais could only use the Holy Grail to create Alter as a form of comfort, just like finding a person who looked like Joan of Arc and training her to be what he wanted. What he really wanted was Joan of Arc, not Alter.
Such a Jeanne d 'Alter was a genuine dream that had nothing and nothing at all.
Jeanne Alter herself knew that, and that was why she hated everything, because everything did not permit her to exist, and there was no place for her to dwell.
Under such circumstances, Jeanne Alter decided to help Rozen in the sixth singularity because Rozen once chose to trust her and fight side by side with her, allowing her to avenge herself. That was why she reached out to Rozen in the sixth singularity.
In fact, she was just looking for someone to rely on.
In the end, Rozen held her hand, and he held her hand twice, allowing her to come here and have a place to go.
This interaction may not be frequent, nor deep, but it also confirmed the saying, "Everything starts from the heart."
Rozen didn't have any bad feelings for Alter. Instead, he wanted to help the girl who had a sad fate more than anyone else.
Alter, on the other hand, had value because of Rozen's existence.
In that case …
"You can have a real second life with me, Jeanne."
Rozen made such a statement in a very sincere manner.
Alter was silent for this reason.
After a while …
"Don't joke around."
Alter said so, her tone was full of annoyance.
"I'm just an insignificant woman born for an insignificant reason. It doesn't matter to anyone, and it's even more unnecessary for the world. Just like when I was in the first singularity, I was stabbed in the abdomen and died miserably. You are the last master of mankind, an existence that even God favors. Why are you with a meaningless and sinful woman like me?"
Jeanne Alter said sarcastically.
"With your ability, there will be a lot of servants willing to serve you in the future. No matter what kind of hero they are, they will surrender to you and protect you. Among them, there will definitely be people like Serenity who are willing to sacrifice themselves for you. There will also be people like that idiot king who will fight for you with a legendary holy sword. Not to mention, you have a strong shield that will never fall by your side. What's the use of forming a contract with an inconspicuous Arsonist like me?"
With that said, Alter glanced at Rozen and said coldly.
"Okay, let go of me, or I'll get burned."
Alter was ready to break free from Rozen's hand and leave.
In this regard, Rozen only gave one sentence.
"If you want to break free, then break free. Anyway, from the day I held your hand, I never thought about getting rid of your hand again."
As soon as these words came out, Alter's movements immediately froze.
This sentence was fatal to Jeanne d 'Alter.
Rozen seemed to see through everything in Alter's mind and said so.
"Do you know how Matthew was born?"
Rozen actually asked such a question.
"… I know." Alter was silent for a while, then calmly said, "In order to become the attachment of the Hero Spirit, you were used as a catalyst to create a test tube baby, right?"
"That's right." Rozen said faintly, "Then do you know how I was born?"
When such a sentence came out of Rozen's mouth, Jeanne (Alter) was stunned.
Immediately afterward, Jeanne (Alter) noticed Rozen's gaze, and her face changed.
"Could it be that you also …"
Jeanne d 'Alter finally turned around.
Looking at Alter like this, Rozen smiled indifferently.
"So, don't make me so great. I am just like you and Matthew. I was only born because others needed me."
Hearing Rozen's words, Alter was completely dumbfounded.
Obviously, Alter did not expect that Rozen would have such a fate.
The difference was that Rozen was saved, but Alter and Matthew were not.
"Now, it's my turn to save others."
Rozen looked at Alter's eyes and said word by word.
"Let me ask you, Jeanne, Dragon Witch, do you want to make a contract with me?"
The meaning of the second question was completely different from the first one.
"I …"
Jeanne Alter did not know how to answer.
But Rozen was satisfied.
There was no other reason.
"Do you know?"
Rozen smiled slyly.
"In fact, my absolute contract doesn't need the consent of the contract target, because as long as the other party has recognized me from the bottom of their heart, their soul can be opened to me without reservation. Then, when I hold the other party's hand with [Miracle], the contract will be established."
How could Joan of Arc not understand the meaning of this sentence?
Unfortunately, it was too late.
