Chapter 69: Confluence
"Thank you, guys, for standing up for France...... Thank you from the bottom of my heart. ”
Obviously, the backbone of the rebel army is Joan of Arc, the white-clothed caster and the second lieutenant of Buwannaba, and the main backbone of the Chaldean is Fujimaru Rikka and Yagi Yukisai, however, when Queen Mary came to the temporary command post with everyone, the temperament of the whole place changed.
That noble atmosphere naturally made her the focus of attention and the center of everyone's attention. This is a normal thing.
She has long been accustomed to being the protagonist on various occasions, as the queen, although she is not as starry as her husband Louis XVI, but there are countless people who want to climb the relationship and take the opportunity to climb up by the wind next to her pillow.
Twenty years ago, the newlywed Queen Mary might have been treated like an idol like an ignorant little girl, but now, she has long since become a calm queen.
In addition, Dieng, who was on her side, made her suppress her excitement even more and wanted to show her reliable side in front of her.
As she uttered words of thanks, the atmosphere finally relaxed. Second Lieutenant Buwannaba finally understood why the herald from before looked at a loss, not to blame him, but himself, and didn't know what to do.
For the French, Louis XVI was certainly a sinner.
At that time, it was precisely because of dissatisfaction with the ruling class of the king that France was in turmoil.
The biggest problem in a monarchical country is the monarch.
This is not necessarily a backward system. At all times, a thing exists, and it must have its reasonable meaning at that time.
The rise and fall of the monarchy must be because of the birth of a virtuous and powerful monarch, and it must also be with the messing around of later monarchs, resulting in serious contradictions in the country, and the last monarch, whether it is excellent, mediocre or tyrant, will definitely be dragged down by the internal injuries that have accumulated long ago.
The current Louis XVI is one such example.
Before him, the contradictions in France had long been stimulated to the point where they could not have been more intense.
Louis XVI wanted to reform, but he didn't know how to start. He was not a virtuous monarch in the first place, so he could only go with the flow.
However, for Robespierre and Ensign Bouwannaba and others, Louis XVI represented the [feudal monarchy], an existence that they should overthrow, and people's hatred of feudal monarchy reached the top, and now they had to vent it.
Yes, when he saw Queen Mary, he was in a very delicate mood.
Joan of Arc is okay, after all, she lives in a very early era, and she only has the basic common sense given by the Holy Grail about the fate of France, and she has no real feeling.
"Chaldeans, meet again."
Joan of Arc greeted Rika Fujimaru with a smile.
As the conversation began, the exchange gradually took place, and the atmosphere that had attracted the eyes of Queen Mary completely disappeared.
At a glance, Joan of Arc saw that the warriors around her had all changed, and their eyes swept around, and finally landed on Marda. Joan of Arc looked at her earnestly, which made Marda a little embarrassed.
"Excuse me, what's wrong with me?"
"Are you...... Saint Marda! I really didn't expect it...... You can see the real face here. ”
Although Joan of Arc didn't really live the Gospels or the New Testament - because, to be honest, Joan of Arc is illiterate, how can you let an illiterate person read a book! However, with the knowledge given by the Holy Grail, she still has some understanding of the [saint].
Perhaps, in the world, in terms of popularity, Joan of Arc is higher than Marda.
But from the perspective of official history, Marda is a person who has truly served the Lord, and there is no comparison with a village girl like herself who has only listened to the voice of the Lord! Not only have they heard the teachings of the Lord, but they have also seen the true face of the Lord, and they have even cooked for the Lord themselves! What an honor!
Joan of Arc's eyes were so respectful that she embarrassed Marda, clasped her hands on her staff, a grinning smile on her face, and her brow stiffened.
"That, yes, it's me. Hello, Joan of Arc. ”
"No, no, no, where do I dare to call myself a saint in front of you, and torture me. You're the one who can drive away the dragon Taraski with just a prayer, it's amazing! She is a noble saint! I'm so small compared to you......"
"Ahh......h Ay...... Light and prayer alone, descendants are so legendary...... Ahh......hh Ahaha. ”
Yukisai Yagi noticed that Marda seemed to be getting more and more embarrassed.
After pondering for a while, she felt that Marda was probably embarrassed, and her heart was the same: Lord Saint, she is definitely not the kind of person who will talk about her great deeds all day long! People are saints, if they exaggerate and promote themselves, they are no different from ordinary people! I'm going to be embarrassed to be praised like this by Joan of Arc!
Thinking of this, Yagi Yukisai quickly took over and said:
"Now that everyone is together, let's get down to business. Do you have any impressions of the enemy here? ”
As soon as Yagi Yukisai's voice fell, everyone shifted the topic to business. Except for Fujimaru Rika and Mathew, these two people are too familiar with Yagi on weekdays, and both of them look at him with a surprised expression.
"What?"
Yagi was a little uncomfortable.
"No...... I just think that Yagi-senpai occasionally says this kind of thing.,Serious or something......"
Matthew complained in amazement. Fujimaru Rika nodded vigorously: "I thought that the seniors would only spoil the atmosphere!" ”
"What nonsense, even I would read the atmosphere, okay! I have basic human abilities. ”
Qing Ji stopped talking, after all, Lord Ahn Jin, who asked her to report the situation, was not listening, what else did she say. Turning his gaze and looking at the flirting (?) The three of them, Kiyohime pouted, looking not very happy.
Not to mention this, Second Lieutenant Buwanaba had an expression of disbelief on his face. In the conversation just now, there seems to be something that cannot be ignored that has been mentioned......
"That...... Could it be ...... Savior...... Yes, is it Joan of Arc......"
Yes, just now Marda clearly mentioned Joan of Arc, and Joan of Arc did not pay attention for a moment, and admitted it casually.
Finding that she couldn't hide it anymore, Joan of Arc smiled wryly and took off her mask, revealing the familiar face.
"Sorry...... Because people were scared when they saw my face, they ......."
Although Ensign Buwannaba trembled as if reflexively, he still held on and said, "No, it's nothing, after so many days of joint action, I know, you, you are not the dragon witch...... But, but ...... But the body ...... Can't control ......"
The psychological trauma received by Second Lieutenant Buwanaba was too severe.
At first, he was attacked by the Dragon Witch and escaped.
Later, in Lyon, he was attacked by Vlad III again, and he was so frightened that he peed his pants......
This kind of experience, if it were someone else, would have been so frightened that he would never dare to fight again.
Robespierre, for example, went insane and lived only in his dreams.
Just when the atmosphere was awkward, and everyone didn't know when to say, suddenly, another herald ran in, with blood on his body, I don't know if it was his or his teammates.
"Report!! We have been discovered by the enemy! Mistress Jolchos is resisting! Yes, it's the Dragon Witch! It's Joan of Arc who has come for revenge! ”
