Joan of Arc still had a smile on her face.

In my heart, there is a grievance that almost cries.

Although it was not unaware of the past.

But when she stood at the door just now, she almost wanted to turn around and leave, and then pretended not to know anything, until Shen He personally spoke to her.

- The world is painful.

Joan of Arc suddenly remembered what someone had said to her, that the weak animals died in the mouths of the mighty beasts, and the mighty beasts died under the tools of the humans, while the humans were killing each other.

It's not easy to live in such a world.

Even so, Joan of Arc is still extremely attached to the world and her life after the age of nineteen.

Because in this painful world, there is love.

She led the army to slaughter the enemy, and did not hesitate to carry the blood stained and the deep sin, even the Lord would not forgive her, but she still walked firmly on this path.

Because she loves her country.

Even if she knew that such a self would eventually end up in ruin, and she would be ridiculed for her pathetic posture, this love has always driven her to move forward and never regret it.

And now, she is also in love with Shen He in front of her.

Joan of Arc didn't flee because she knew it all the most.

Shen He gave her the continuation of life she longed for, gave her plain and warm understanding and tolerance, and gave her a love as bright and gorgeous as a rainbow.

And her feelings for Shen He have also become that as long as she thinks about him, no matter what she does, she will be happy and get a warm love heart.

What if—

The current grievances and worries that will gradually move away are also part of the pain of this world, and they are the emotions that must be experienced in this continuous life.

Then she just needs to bear it all the way she did before.

Joan of Arc prayed silently in her heart.

Almighty Lord, I have never regretted this extended life, and I am extremely grateful for the love and love in my heart, even in this painful world, as long as there is love, I will not stop moving forward......

......

"Master."

Joan of Arc spoke slowly, interrupting the silence in the room, a gentle smile still on her face.

"Actually...... I've been aware of this for a long time...... Of all the servants, only the formula is different. ”

“......”

Shen He looked at her in a daze.

"Master...... I just said that, before I came...... The master is starting to be in the Italian style. Joan of Arc kept a smile and seemed to be thinking about the words, and said a little intermittently, "It's okay...... No matter what happens to the Master, I'm a servant of the Master...... This kind of thing is to open a harem, for the master...... It's also normal, after all, we are all never separated, and we still have a long life...... Right. ”

“......”

Shen He was completely speechless.

Because of the unprecedented intensity of emotions that hit his heart.

Not excited, of course, but self-blame.

Joan of Arc ——! Shen He rushed forward with difficulty, holding Joan of Arc in his arms, his voice trembling a little, "You are really hopelessly clumsy in lying." ”

Such a clumsy lie, such a clumsy smile.

It made him feel like his heart was trembling.

Maybe it's because her emotional development is too smooth, or maybe it's because Joan of Arc's status as a servant is destined to be by her side, Shen He didn't realize until this moment that Joan of Arc was important to him.

Not just as a partner.

More as a lover.

"Master......

Joan of Arc showed an expression that she couldn't tell whether it was confusion or sadness, she simply lifted her feet, leaned Shen He's arms, and stretched out her hand to hug his back.

Say nothing, think nothing.

The scene was quiet, Shen He gritted his teeth and hugged Joan of Arc tightly, and his mind was also blank.

He suddenly realized that he was naïve to think that he could tell everything and accept the new relationship of harmony as a matter of course.

Even if it really is.

How could he bear to hurt Joan of Arc who loved him so much?

But......

The concern for the formula has also reached a point where it can no longer deceive itself.

"Joan of Arc." In the end, it was Shen He who broke the silence, he gently pressed his forehead against Joan of Arc's forehead, and found that there was still irrepressible tension in her pupils, and he couldn't help but feel distressed for a while, gritting his teeth, "I...... Forget it. ”

"How can this be ——!?" Joan of Arc raised her voice and raised her palm to put it on Shen He's chest, "The feelings in my heart can't deceive me. ”

"But I don't want to see you sad." Shen He could only smile bitterly.

Look at those、Inside the anime。

The male protagonist opens a harem, and the female protagonists are still happy.

How could such a thing be.

Even a gentle person like Joan of Arc will be aggrieved and sad.

"You can't let Shikiki be sad."

Joan of Arc looked at the struggle in Shen He's eyes, and his heart was also uncomfortable.

Emotions can't fool themselves.

She wouldn't want to see Shen He suppress her emotions because of her, she would rather bear the grievances herself.

"Don't think about it anymore." Joan of Arc stood on tiptoe, kissed her red lips lightly, and muttered in a low voice, "Let it be, we're already lucky because we have plenty of time to experience life, whether it's laughter or tears." ”

"......" What else could Shen He say?

He can only hug tighter, stick closer, and use all means to convey his love to the lovely child in his arms.

......

In the end, I couldn't find a solution.

When she saw the two ceremonies again, she had already changed into the same clothes as before, and was still standing in front of Shen He with her back straight, and after looking at Joan of Arc, she looked at Shen He again.

The look in his eyes seemed to ask, is it explained?

In her heart, she doesn't really understand what love is, and she doesn't really understand what kind of relationship lovers are, but she doesn't want to be hostile to Joan of Arc.

Because she was not hostile to Joan of Arc.

"Formula." Before Shen He could reply, Joan of Arc spoke first, standing generously in front of the two ceremonies, "I won't care about your affairs, but I won't be compared to you." ”

Since there is no way to deceive Shen He with lies.

Let's be honest.

No matter what, she wouldn't let the Master's love for her be diluted in the slightest.

"Won't you care?" The two ceremonies seemed to be a bit of an exception to this outcome, and after thinking for a while, she asked, "Wouldn't it matter if you had a child?" ”

"Poof—"

Shen He almost couldn't hold back his saliva.

"You, you, you, ......you, you," Joan of Arc blushed and stammered for a long time, and finally shouted as if explosively, "What are you talking about all of a sudden! ”

"Is there anything strange?"

The expressions of the two ceremonies were also a little complicated.

This attitude.

Sure enough, it's saying no.

In the common sense she has, love is equal to husband and wife is equal to producing the next generation, which seems to be the responsibility of two people who love each other, or normal development.

If it's just about helping each other and protecting each other, what's the difference between it and now?

"I see, is this so? yes, I can't have children......"

Joan of Arc kept muttering in a low voice, and a palpable resentment had begun to appear behind her.

"Brace yourself a little, Joan of Arc!"

Shen He shook Joan of Arc's shoulders vigorously, he had just heard strange statements such as "There are three unfilial pieties, and no queen is great".

There is no way for the Heroic Spirit to get pregnant, which is what Joan of Arc cares about.

The words really stimulated her.

"I didn't say anything like having a baby." Shen He could only look at the two ceremonies helplessly.

This is very wronged, Shen He is only twenty-six or seventeen years old now, compared to his current lifespan, it can be regarded as too young.

And he already has adopted Sakura, so he doesn't have much desire for his children now.

"What?" The two ceremonies were obviously dissatisfied, "In that case, then what you said yesterday was really just an expression of possessiveness." ”

"Of course not!"

Shen He found himself completely unaware of how to explain it.

Joan of Arc beside him looked like he had been devastated, and the two ceremonies in front of him seemed to be beginning to understand his confession in a strange direction.

How did those bigwigs who opened the harem do it?

......

Because of such and such special reasons, in the end, when Shen He and the others left the room, it was already the afternoon of this day.

That's why Jean came and knocked on the door.

Councillor Kelly, who escaped from Magneto yesterday, found the school, but was in critical condition.

"The professor thinks you have what it takes to save him."

Qin said this, and at the same time, his gaze swept slightly over the bodies of Shen He and the others.

As a woman, her intuition always made her feel that there was something different between these people.

"Take us to see it."

Shen He motioned for her to lead the way in front.

In a few days there is a World Summit, where heads of state will gather on Liberty Island, and that's when Magneto begins his own plans.

But yesterday Shen He reminded the Demon Girl that Magneto's biggest mistake in his plan.

So how Lao Wan will choose, Shen He doesn't know.

But in the end, there is no escaping the most essential purpose - to let mutants influence or even control the world.

Just as Shen He was thinking, the three of them were taken by Qin to the secret base below the school, where all the teachers, including Wolverine, were here.

Actually, it's just five people.

In addition, Kelly was lying naked on the testing table, the blood vessels all over his body were clearly visible, and he was struggling to breathe.

Shen He walked to the edge of the testing table.

Somewhat unexpectedly, Congressman Kelly's gaze did not have much resentment, more just reluctance to give up on life.

"Are you mutants too?" Councilor Kelly looked at Shen He and the others, "Mutants are really blessed, I always thought that you only existed amazingly ugly, but I didn't expect that there was also amazing beauty." ”

"We're not mutants." Shen He said softly.

“......”

Councillor Kelly was a little surprised, and he looked at the professor next to him, as if he wanted to confirm it.

"They're not mutants." The professor rolled his wheelchair, "But they have more power than mutants, Mr. Kelly, the world is far from what humans think." ”

“...... No matter what kind of existence the world has, it cannot escape the competition of interests, and this has been the case since ancient times. Congressman Kelly shook his head in difficulty.

He was a fierce competitive.

Therefore, he believes that there will be a war between mutants and ordinary humans, and all he does is to end the war before it causes more damage.

In this respect, he is not an egoist.

"You're right." Shen He looked at him and said calmly, "So I want to know, what kind of benefits can I bring to me if I save you?" ”

"Mr. Shen?"

The professor couldn't help but shout.

"Charles." Shen He knew what the professor meant, and he chuckled, "If I see a homeless man who is about to freeze to death on the side of the road, I will help him, it is because of kindness, but the current situation of Councilor Kelly is because he chose war, and it is normal to be killed by the enemy in the war, he is not an innocent person who is involved." ”

“......”

Charles had never heard such logic.

But he was completely unacceptable.

"Kindness is not really good if it picks the object, it can only be called the mercy of the superior, and Councilor Kelly should not suffer such revenge."

"Charles, there is no absolute good and absolute evil in this world." Shen He shook his head.

He also knew that it was useless to talk about it.

Charles in front of him is more like the Virgin than Joan of Arc.

In the original plot, when Magneto kidnapped the little naughty in front of him, he was fully capable of stopping it, but because he cared about the lives of a group of policemen, he watched the little naughty being taken away.

Innocent outsiders are more important than their own innocent students.

"Mr. Shen......"

Charles wanted to say something more, but Congressman Kelly spoke up to stop him.

"Professor, this gentleman is right." Councilor Kelly, who has grown up in officialdom so far, didn't think there was anything wrong with what Shen He said, he looked at Shen He and asked, "What do you want me to do?" ”

"You see the threat of mutants, but you don't know that mutants are the future of human evolution." Shen He changed the topic, "You will never be able to arrest all mutants, because as long as humans still exist, mutants will appear in a steady stream, and it may even be your children, your grandchildren, your descendants, one day, this world will belong to mutants." ”

“...... Maybe you're right. "It's not that Councillor Kelly hasn't heard of this theory, "but that will be very far away, and before that, there will be an unknown number of ordinary people who will die because of the war, for example, me now." ”

Being captured and mutilated by Magneto, in a sense, made him sure that what he was doing was the right thing to do.

Mutants pose a huge threat to the world.

"There's another very big possibility." Shen He said calmly, "The whole world, or human civilization, was destroyed because of such a war. ”

"How is this possible!?" Congressman Kelly lost his voice.

He was aware of the war, but in his mind, mutants were just a threat to hide.

It's like uncontrolled gunfire.

Maybe you can create a terrorist attack, maybe you can create a shocking crime that no one can solve, but destroy the world?

"You've seen the power of mutants." Shen He completely ignored the professor on the other side, who was already frowning, and continued to flicker, "If someone replaces the president?" Someone stole nuclear weapons? Someone assassinated an important person in another country and then framed you? You never know what mutants are capable of, so you never know what mutants can do. ”
