249 The Third Night of Madness (11)
There was considerable silence within the Inherent Enchantment, and everyone looked at the man who had fallen to the ground and half of his body was gone
Who is he? Even Joan of Arc is asking herself
The other party's appearance was very unfamiliar, but it felt very familiar to her, so familiar that Joan of Arc could never forget it
Feeling his vision blurry, Bluebeard, who had disappeared half of his body, looked at Joan of Arc's face, he smiled, laughed like a child, but when he laughed, the tears could not be stopped, and Bluebeard muttered, "Joan of Arc, I can finally see you again..."
Joan of Arc was even more stunned when she heard Bluebeard's words, and her long-lost memories came back to her mind, and she realized that the man with the frog face in front of her was overlapping with the figure of another person
That's enough, as long as I can see you again, it's enough to let my dirty hands touch this holy girl again at the end, let me carry all the sin and darkness to hell, maybe you don't know my distorted face anymore, but I really don't have any regrets to see you again, it's great to be able to participate in this Holy Grail War, goodbye, it belongs to me... Holy Maiden...' Bluebeard thought wordlessly with a smile, and then he closed his eyes and disappeared in front of everyone with a satisfied smile, finally withdrawing from the Holy Grail War, and at the end he didn't even say his name, maybe it seemed to him to be a blasphemy against Joan of Arc as well. Not a lot of words
A necklace fell to the ground, glittering in the silver moonlight. This necklace is made of sterling silver, and on it is a beautiful girl with her hands on her chest with a smile, she is wearing a very ordinary long dress with her eyes closed and smiling happily, she seems to be praying to God for something, but no one knows what her wish is, this maiden is Joan of Arc
"Gilles...?" Joan of Arc picked up the necklace that fell on the ground and said a little dejectedly, although the other party's face became distorted and out of shape because of the relationship between learning black magic and alchemy, but this necklace Joan of Arc can never forget
"Yo, Joan of Arc, you see I made it with a jeweler, beautiful, right? A lot of words" The young and handsome Bluebeard walked up to the girl in a daze, took out a string of silver necklaces and said to the girl beside her, this chain is made in the shape of Joan of Arc, it is very exquisite.
“… What about your original necklace? Instead of being angry or embarrassed by Bluebeard's actions, Joan of Arc asked.
Thinking of the cross necklace in the past, Bluebeard said unconcernedly, "That thing?" I lost it in the last battle, don't worry about it" After saying that, Bluebeard put the necklace around his neck, in fact, the necklace was not lost, but was remelted to make it into the current one, in Bluebeard's heart, he no longer believes in God, but the beautiful and kind girl around him
"I'll lose it next time." Joan of Arc said.
"How is it possible, I will definitely keep it well, even if I die, this necklace will be by my side" Joan of Arc replied by Bluebeard, and what he said did indeed do, even after his death, even if he became a heroic spirit, the chain was by his side, until now
……
"......" Joan of Arc, holding the necklace, stood up, her expression still did not change, but her eyes were full of tears, at this time a circle of flames appeared under her feet to surround her in the middle, at this moment the inherent enchantment 'Holy Duel Arena' changed, the flames burned the flags around her, swaying like a devil, and countless figures seemed to appear on the periphery of the dueling arena, they wantonly shouted, cursed, and cursed Joan of Arc standing in the center of the arena
The most vicious language in the whole world appeared here, and there were even people who picked up stones from the ground and threw rotten eggs into the dueling arena, which disappeared like a phantom when they were thrown on St. George, but when they were thrown on Joan of Arc, they were like real objects, and the stones even smashed her forehead, and the armor was covered with rotten eggs
There were more and more figures with no appearance but indifferent hatred and hatred, the curse became louder and louder, and the garbage thrown on it also increased
A wooden cross appeared behind Joan of Arc, several chains wrapped around her limbs and hung her up and tied to it, and then several figures walked up to the dueling arena and came to Joan of Arc who was tied to the cross, and the torches in their hands lit the wood below...,
It was as if hellish fire was burning, and the flames under the cross spread throughout the dueling arena, but strangely St. George didn't feel any warmth in the flames, but Joan of Arc was the opposite
The flames burned on her, and a look of pain appeared on Joan of Arc's normally calm face, and then she opened her mouth and wailed, shouting God and screaming in a desperate voice, when St. George suddenly found himself unable to move, and he could only stand still and watch the changed Joan of Arc
The crowd outside the arena shouted loudly, and all the voices converged into one sentence, which was: "Burn the Witch"
'Witch' is what everyone calls this girl who once struggled to protect her hometown
How ridiculous, pathetic, and pitiful is this 'witch'?
But no one around her sympathized with her, and they all wanted to kill her
But at this time, St. George found that in the completely dark figure, there was a person who was very clear that the other party was a man, a very handsome and very young man, he wanted to rush into this place but was stopped by countless people, he knelt on the ground and shouted hard, but did not make any sound, and finally he was bound by dozens of people with iron chains to get out of here, but even so he was still struggling, reaching out to save the girl who was tied to the stake and endured the flames
Vaguely St. George noticed that the man was wearing a necklace, and with his eyesight, he could clearly see that the necklace was engraved with a beautiful maiden
In the midst of the flames, Joan of Arc's voice became deeper and deeper, and gradually even St. George could not hear what he was saying, and at this time, the girl who was wrapped in flames suddenly raised her head, looked at St. George, and said loudly, "Lord, commit yourself to this-"
At the moment when these words fell, the pillar of fire rose into the sky and soared into the sky, and the flames even shattered the inherent barrier, like a volcanic eruption for a long time, and the scorching waves of qi continued to spread outward, and the inherent barrier all groaned in this powerful force
The girl who was chained to the cross escaped, she fell to her knees on one knee after she landed, she closed her eyes and hands in front of her as if she was praying to God, and the pillar of fire that soared to the sky frantically condensed in front of her, and finally turned into a beautiful sword that seemed to burn red as if burning with flames but as clear as crystal
Treasure
La.Pucelle
Grade: EX
Species: To people
Maximum Distance:-
Max Capture: 1
With the dying poem "Lord, dedicate yourself to this-" as a spell to initiate the holy sword that makes the flames manifest.
Interpreting Joan of Arc's roasting as a conceptual crystallization weapon created by attacking, a subspecies of inherent enchantment, and a sword crystallized into the mental image world, this sword is the Heroic Joan of Arc itself, and once the treasure is manifested, Joan of Arc will disappear after the battle.
This sword is logically impossible to appear in this world, but because of the injustice she has received, Joan of Arc has granted her possession, and after using this sword, no matter who her enemies are, they will be killed, attacks cannot be dodged, defended, or exempted, and any enemy hit by this sword will be burned by the fire of the red lotus and eventually die
……
The wooden cross fell from heaven behind St. George, and chains were tied around his limbs and neck to pull him up and fasten him to the cross, and he was in the same condition as Joan of Arc who was initially bound by 'Thou is the Dragon', only this time he was controlled by Joan of Arc and could not break free
Looking at the girl who stood up and held the red crystal sword after praying, a smile appeared on St. George's face, he knew what he was going to face next, and he knew his final end, but he didn't make any struggle or resistance, just calmly watched the girl walking towards him step by step
"O Holy Maiden of the Red Lotus, come and give me the final blow to end this battle," St. George said calmly, and then in his sight, the girl raised the long sword in her hand and slashed through the air, and at this moment St. George's body burned with a bright red flame like blood, which burned his body and soul at the same time
St. George's body trembled in the flames, and he cried out loudly, "Holy Maiden, it is my honor to fight you at last...", and in such a roar, St. George disappeared
The inherent barrier shattered, and Joan of Arc stood alone in the sky with a red sword, and the silver moonlight shone on her body, and the other spectators seemed to hallucinate, because behind the girl, the moonlight actually formed a pair of huge wings, and she was as holy and beautiful as an angel.
The red crystal sword in his hand turned into a substance like a black stone and fell into the flood below, Joan of Arc looked up at the bright full moon, and a smile finally appeared on his always expressionless face: "Isn't my wish also to resurrect you?" Giles... You're so stupid... It's stupid..."
Tears slid down her cheeks, in fact, after coming to this world, she had consulted the relevant information, hoping to know what the final result of that man was, but when she saw the historical record, she could no longer calm down...
She suddenly realized that she still had something she wanted to get, and this thing was the man who had been by her side in the past, constantly encouraging herself, constantly protecting herself, and constantly supporting herself
For the sake of Gilles, a man whom later generations called the devil, the executioner, the infidel, and the madman. Morality. Rice
This man has a very affectionate name - Bluebeard
In such words, Joan of Arc's body disappeared, and she would have withdrawn from the Holy Grail War after using the Red Lotus Saintess, but she left with a smile at the end, maybe because of the relationship with the person she had seen here? Not a lot of words
The silver necklace fell from the sky, eventually fell into the rolling waves, and finally sank into the deep darkness of the water...
What exactly is the girl praying for? No one knows, maybe only Bluebeard himself knows what this necklace really means, right? A lot of words ......,
