"In the twelfth century, the seven Crusades ignited the spark of creativity, revived the literature of the Dark Ages, and propelled Europe from a dark age of isolation to an open modern world, but it was used by lords and nobles in later generations to become a victim of politics......"

- The Burning Crusade

……

"Don't worry, unlike King Arthur's lackeys, we won't kill you. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Seeing Frey's evasive eyes, Anna flicked the ashes of her cigarette and said straight to the point.

"Already know? So what are you going to do? ”

"I just want to know more about witches, tell me everything you know, I can pretend that it didn't happen, but if I dare to hide something......"

Anna didn't finish her sentence, but she appeared in front of Frey out of thin air and aimed at Frey's second silver spear, which had already helped Anna make her next words clear.

"Ask, what do you want to know?"

Hearing Ferry's answer, the silver spear aimed at Frey's second child slowly disappeared.

"Tell us everything about your sister Freya, anything that is different from ordinary people, no matter how young." Moda, who put on a wig again, was the first to speak.

Joan of Arc, who was about to climax in his fantasies, also changed back to the serious look that the regimental commander Konoe should have.

Although Anna walked to the bedside and sat down, and continued to smoke one cigarette after another, her ruby eyes began to stay on Frey's body.

This sudden change in the atmosphere really made Frey unable to adapt to it for a while, and he hesitated for a while before he spoke.

"Freya? If you want to say that she is different from other girls, it should be said that Freya is kinder than other girls, that guy is a guy who is not even willing to pinch to death ants, how can he be a witch! It's just ......"

Listening to Frey's words, Joan of Arc and Moda clearly realized that the possibility of key information appearing next was extremely great, and even Anna, who had been smoking calmly, snuffed out the cigarette in her hand.

"Although I hate to admit it, Freya did often joke about being a witch in the past, and would occasionally make some remarks about longing for witches' abilities."

Hearing this, Anna's eyes seemed to flash with a light.

"Sure enough, your sister's incident is not an ordinary witch awakening, just like what happened in Y Fortress last year, it is a special event in which the body was taken by the Elder of the Black Tower." This time, Anna couldn't help but speak.

"Take the flesh? That means my sister isn't a witch? Was it manipulated? Hearing this, a light flashed in Frey's eyes.

"I can't say that, but judging from her destruction of Z Fortress, it really doesn't look like what your sister did, but from the perspective of you, the only survivor of Z Fortress, it's really like what your sister did.

It seems that the Blazing Queen's seizure of the girl's body is not complete, and it will even be affected by the consciousness of the girl's body.

In other words, as long as the spirit of the Elder of the Black Tower is dispelled, Freya can be restored to its original state.

Judging from Freya's previous witch remarks, the seizure of the body by the Elder of the Black Tower is not immediate, and there should be a period of incubation......"

"Lady Anna! According to your own crusader regulations, all this information about witches is a secret of the crusaders and cannot be revealed to outsiders! Looking at Anna's self-conscious analysis, she accidentally revealed important witch information such as "Black Tower", "Blazing Queen", and "Body Seizure" to Frey, and Moda quickly interrupted Anna.

Frey raised his head as if he saw hope when he heard the words "Freya is not a witch and can be restored" from the mouth of Anna, the leader of the Crusaders.

"Oh, is that so?" Anna was a little indifferent, and continued to ask, "Do you remember when Freya first had this kind of witch talk?" ”

"Time? I don't remember exactly, but it was probably the beginning of 2989. ”

"Two years ago, then we can determine the approximate time when the witch took the flesh, it should also be two years."

……

After a period of questions and answers, the only useful information that Anna and the three of them could ask from Frey's mouth was the confirmation of "incubation period" and "physical seizure".

But for Frey, Anna's inadvertent revelation led Frey into a new door, and Frey had never even heard of the world behind the gate.

"Black Tower", "Holy War", "Queen of the Elements", ......

Seeing that Anna and the others wanted to turn away, Frey also chased after them.

"Lady Anna! I also want to know more about witches! ”

Anna frowned and sighed, waving her hand casually at the weakest Moda.

Moda understood, and turned and walked towards Frey, who was chasing him.

With his right hand stroking the worn classical book in his left hand, two chains shining with golden holy light flew out of thin air from Frey's left and right, tightly wrapping around Frey's neck.

"Ahem......" Frey, who was wrapped around his neck, whimpered, unable to speak, and his two hands were constantly pulling at the two chains around his neck, and his whole face was already a little distorted.

"Don't chase after you anymore, killing you is just doing things according to the regulations of the Holy Land, but for the sake of Lord Anna, I can spare your life, provided that you understand that we are not obliged to reveal more information about witches to you, and if you do, pat the chain and tell me."

Moda stretched out his finger and lifted his glasses, and a flash of light flashed on the two lenses, making it difficult to see Moda's eyes.

But Frey, as if he hadn't heard Moda's words, was still holding on, and his whole face was purple.

"Hey, hey, hey! I'm really going to kill you! Seeing that Frey was still dead, Moda threatened, but his hands trembled in a little panic.

Although Moda has divine powers and is also an important figure in the crusaders, he has always been in the rear to sort out and study the information of witches, rarely fights, and has never killed anyone at all.

But I didn't expect that someone would really threaten themselves with their lives.

Watching Frey's already purple face become more and more distorted, his legs were constantly kicking and struggling, and Moda's hands were shaking more and more.

"Bastard! Why don't you just throw in the towel! I'm really going to kill you! "It's the first time that Moda, who has always been gentle, scolded people like this.

But Frey, who heard Moda's scolding, showed a hideous smile, and looked completely like a madman.

"Ahh

Seeing that Frey was about to be strangled to death by himself, Moda couldn't help but wipe the classical book in his right hand and his left hand again, and untied the two chains.

Frey, who was released, also lay on the ground weakly, breathing heavily.

"I ...... Won......" Frey said breathlessly.

This made Moda helpless, and he only hated that he couldn't kill him, and he really didn't know how to clean up the mess that Anna threw at him.

Scratching the wig with tangled hands, Moda spoke again: "Okay, okay!" I know you want to save your sister, but it's impossible to tell you about the extent to which the Crusaders have information about witches until we've fully figured out the witches lurking in the Holy Land, and Lady Anna has revealed enough to you!

If you really want to save your sister, you should go to join the army, and when you join the crusaders on your own strength, and slowly climb to a position where you can access the witch's information, you will naturally know, as for now, I can only follow the crusader regulations customized by Lord Anna, there is no comment, if you dare to follow again, I will really kill you! ”

With that, Moda turned and left.

But for this white lie, deep down, Moda still felt a trace of guilt for Frey.

A mortal who can't use divine powers, if he joins the Crusaders, let alone climbs to a high position, and can survive when the Crusaders go out to investigate monsters, it is already very good.

That promise was just a reason for Moda to send Frey at will.

But it became the only motivation for Frey to live.

"Freya! I will surely free you from the witch's control! Frey stood up with his hands on his feet, his eyes so determined for the first time.

If the witch was allowed to take away his last and only relative, Frey would really not find any reason to keep him alive.

At the same time, Anna and Joan of Arc, who had left first, were also talking in the quiet corridors of the hospital.

"Lady Anna, the witch information you 'unintentionally' revealed to Frey before was intentional, right?"

Anna didn't answer, and lit a cigarette noncommittally.

Anna, who suddenly became "cold on the outside and hot on the inside", really surprised Joan of Arc.

With Joan of Arc's understanding of growing up with Anna, it is not an exaggeration to say that Joan of Arc is a roundworm in Anna's stomach, and she clearly knows Anna's character.

To put Frey's peace of mind, Anna who pretends to have no intention of revealing the witch's information? A tsundere-kind princess who is cold on the outside and hot on the inside? That's impossible!

Anna has always been the same type, could it be that Anna really has feelings for that guy named Frey?

This waries Joan of Arc, who loves Anna.

Frey Rowland? After reciting the name in her mind again, Joan of Arc discovered the crux of the problem.

Roland's surname! That's the crux of the matter, and when you think about it, it seems that Anna's unusual behavior can be explained!

Thinking of this, Joan of Arc couldn't help but speak again, "Anna-sama! You don't want to restart the long-shelved 'Roland Project', do you? ”

Anna, who was found to be intent on, frowned, her eyes were sharp, revealing a cannibalistic appearance, and with one kick, Jeanne d'Arc's head stepped on the wall beside her.

"Joan of Arc, you have so much to say today, don't you want to live anymore?"

But when she saw Joan of Arc who was trampled under her feet, her eyes rolled up, her tongue stuck out, her face was full of pleasure to satisfy her ecstasy, and she looked like she was begging for humiliation, and she didn't want to scream in pain like everyone else, or kneel down and beg for mercy.

Anna lost her desire to ravage in an instant, and with a "sigh", she put down her foot on Joan of Arc's face and turned away.

Joan of Arc, who was dissatisfied, was leaning against the wall, screaming incessantly.
