Chapter 1904: The Iron Maiden (22)
Chapter 1904: The Iron Maiden (Twenty-Two)
A few dozen minutes later, in the front-line barracks in France, in Joan of Arc's personal lounge, Arthur sat down.
The rest room in this tent is neatly furnished, but the contents are very simple and varied. Joan of Arc went out with nothing, everything she had been gifted to her, including the armor she now wears. The tables and chairs in this room are very different in style, and it is a matter of course.
"So, I said we should talk about it alone?" said Arthur, his gaze falling on the knight beside him.
"Demes, stand aside. Joan of Arc said to her adjutant.
"But, Holy Maiden------"
"It's okay, if Mistress Michael wanted to harm me, he would have done it a long time ago. The girl said, "But on the contrary, he did us, didn't he?"
The knight Demes didn't refute, he thought about it, so he turned and walked out.
"You go out too, Bedi. Arthur glanced at the big white wolf beside him.
"Wang?" Bediwell looked at Arthur as he pretended not to understand.
"Don't pretend to be garlic, you stupid wolf. Arthur was a little upset.
"Wang. Bediwell still pretended to be innocent.
"Are you talking to a wolf, Mistress Michael?" Joan of Arc looked at Arthur curiously.
"Whew...... Forget it!" said Arthur angrily. It was even more troublesome to explain what happened to Bediwell.
He then ignored Bediville, looked at Joan of Arc instead, and began to say with a serious face: "What I am going to say to you now, you may not be able to understand. But you have to trust me. "
"Okay, please speak, Mistress Michael. "
"Joan of Arc, or rather Greenway, it's time for you to go back to Great Britain with me. Arthur changed his tone and said, "You don't belong to this kingdom, you don't belong to this age, you don't even belong to this world." It would be a mistake for you to continue to stay here, and it would make a mess of the cause and effect of this world. Come back with me to Britain, nine hundred years away, where you really will be. "
After listening to Arthur's nonsensical words, the girl was stunned for a while.
"As strange as it sounds, I don't think Mistress Michael is lying. Joan of Arc thought for a long time before replying, "But I'm sorry. I can't go back with you to that Britain. I can't leave until my mission is accomplished. "
"Oh, so you're going to stay in this kind of hellish place, and risk your life to fight for a group of people you don't know, a country you don't know?" Arthur couldn't help but feel amused: "You know, it's all just a farce? Neither the British army invading France nor the French army defending France can represent true justice." The war was just an infighting between the British and French nobles playing with power, and both sides were equally disgusting. "
"I know that, Mistress Michael. But the girl said, "Nevertheless, I must fulfill my mission." "
"Unbelievable!" Arthur grumbled.
"I don't know if I really belong to the era you say you call it. But I was born and raised in France. I spent my childhood in Orleans, and I watched the country be ravaged by war, and I had to do something. I don't need to belong to this country, this era, I can see the pain of this country, this era. I saw that the people of France were living in dire straits, and I could not leave them alone. I will save all the people and drive the British out of France once and for all. For the sake of France, I regard death as home!"
After listening to the girl's words, Arthur frowned.
"Yes. Is that your answer. He sighed.
"Yes. Nothing can change my mind. I will not give up until I achieve my goal. The girl replied.
"As before, you will always be so stubborn that you will not easily listen to advice. The boy muttered in a low voice, "What a troublesome woman." "
"I'm really sorry, Mistress Michael. Joan of Arc couldn't help but look guilty, though there was no hint of guilt in her tone.
"Forget it!" the young man got up from his chair angrily, turned and left: "Do whatever you like, I don't care!
Although he knew in his heart that his queen Greenway was such a person. No matter what era it changes or how its identity changes, something in the human soul is eternal.
"Michael-sama, where are you going?" the girl tried to stop the boy.
"I'm not going to get involved in your war. Arthur said disdainfully, "Let's see you soon, Joan of Arc." Take care of yourself until then, don't die. "
After speaking, Arthur walked directly out of the tent and left the French barracks. He left with a vampire hunter and a wolf, and no one in the French dared to stop him, perhaps because Arthur had fought alongside Joan of Arc.
"Lord Aslan, what are you going to do next?" Little Zust didn't hear the conversation between Arthur and Joan of Arc, and he followed him inexplicably now: "Aren't you going to see the Holy Maiden? What did you say to her? Why do you seem to be angry?"
"I'm not angry, I'm really not angry. Arthur said angrily.
"[I]?"
"Uh, nothing!" the blonde boy waved his hand and quickened his pace again, now walking in front of their horses.
However, he thought about it, turned his head and said, "No, let's go our separate ways." You can go back to the base of the Brotherhood of Melson first, and don't worry about me. "
"But, Lord Aslan------"
"Make no mistake, Johnny. Arthur glared at little Zust, "I am not obligated to stay in your Brotherhood, and you are not obligated to take care of me all the time. I'm not a child anymore, do you think I can't even take care of myself?"
Little Zust was silent for a while, but he felt that Lord Aslan's words were reasonable, so he didn't argue any further: "Okay. Indeed, our Brotherhood can't keep bothering you, Lord Aslan. After all, you have your own mission that you have to accomplish. That...... I'll go back first. "
He pulled out a palm-sized bag, "There are some gold coins here, so let's use them as temporary living expenses for the Brotherhood to fund Lord Aslan." Please use it cherishedly. I left that pony to you too. It is the honor of my life to be able to fight alongside you, Lord Aslan, today to destroy the Tenth True Ancestor. We're going to leave it at that, but please take care of you, Lord Aslan. "
"Oh, see you later. Arthur was not polite to the other party and took the bag of gold coins.
Little Zust rode away on a large brown horse, and Arthur led a pony away from the French camp and into the forest.
"It's been a busy day. Seeing that there was no one else, Bediwell spoke at this time: "Arthur, what are your plans next?"
"God knows. While the Knight King was leading the horse, he also looked at the sky thoughtfully: "Bedi, how did you find me in Tullier Fort so accurately?"
"The shadow of the raven released by Master Merlin guided me all the way through. The great white wolf replied, "I had just approached Touliel when the shadow of the crow came, and without saying a word, began to lead the way, and the situation seemed to be critical, so I hurried over with the tutorial." Luckily, it arrived in time. "
"Merlin. Arthur frowned, this is actually quite strange, normally, Merlin would not just use the illusion of Daredevil Harry to lead the way for Bedeville. The guy kept repeating that he "can't disturb the balance of this world", so he has always been very cautious in his actions in this world, and Harry's Raven will only appear in front of Arthur (or Bediwell) when he is sure that no third party will witness him. What Bediwell had just said was clearly not Merlin's approach.
"But, what a nuisance, women. Bediville said to himself: "There was an awkward quarrel, saying that he wanted to save France." Arthur, can't you just bring Queen Greenville back?"
"Probably not. Merlin had previously said that to bring Greenway back to Great Britain nine hundred years ago, the spell would only take effect if she had her consent and intention to go back. Greenweil's light soul has become too closely connected to the current world, and she believes that she was born in France, born in this era, and must act to save this country. In this state, no matter how much I try to persuade her, it is useless. "
"So...... What next?" the big white wolf glanced at the blonde boy, "Are you really going to leave like this? Aren't you going to help Queen Greenway and let her win this war quickly? If you can help her understand her wishes, maybe she will be relieved and willing to go back with you?"
Or on the contrary, at that time she became the heroine of France's salvation, a legend. A mysterious voice suddenly sounded, and it was not far from Arthur's ears: "And then she has become famous, and has everything in mortal earth, and she will not be willing to go back to heaven with you." "
Arthur didn't answer, but directly unsheathed the blade of the sword, using the light blade of the Seraphic Holy Sword, and slashed it with a backhand!
"Oh-oh, be careful!" the black crow's shadow jumped back a few times, just in time to avoid Arthur's blade. The blade of the sword only swept over the back of the little white horse, terrifying the horses.
"You know it's useless to do this, so why scare your horse, and even if you can hit it, it's just a phantom. The real me is somewhere else. "
Arthur turned his head hostilely and looked at the shadow of the big black crow that was like a ghost, with a slightly blurred and unstable form: "Mephistopheles, what are you doing here?"
