Chapter 248: Joan of Arc and Shakespeare

The staircase on the ground seems to stretch infinitely.

Stepping on the stairs under her feet, Joan of Arc kept advancing.

As for the servant he is about to face, although the red party has tried every means to conceal it, his real name Joan of Arc has already learned from Emiya Shirou, and the other party is the world-famous writer Shakespeare.

In terms of popularity alone, even Joan of Arc is not as famous as Shakespeare.

But that's about it.

In terms of combat effectiveness, Shakespeare is far inferior to Joan of Arc, and even in this Holy Grail War, he is at the bottom.

After all, according to the general theory, the more modern the heroic spirit, the weaker the combat power.

But this is only a general theory, and there are always some people who are exceptions.

After obtaining the spirit base and becoming a servant, the heroic spirits of the god generation may weaken, but the heroic spirits of modern times are all corrected one by one.

Like Joan of Arc herself, she was just a village girl who led the French people in battle.

She's not good at magic or anything.

But because of her religious beliefs, she was a first-class existence among all the servants at this time.

But that's because she had a legend of fighting during her lifetime.

As a world-famous writer, Shakespeare has nothing to do with fighting.

So in combat, he shouldn't be good at it at all.

But Red thinks he can stop him.

"Treasure!"

Analyzing the scene she was about to face, Joan of Arc gradually came to a conclusion.

If it's a heroic spirit in the writer's department, most of them are treasures that bring stories to life.

Even if it is a fictional hero, as long as the writer himself is a heroic spirit, it is possible to summon him into this world.

And if it's Shakespeare, there are countless heroes that can be summoned.

For example, the invincible Macbeth, or Richard III from the historical drama, or choose from the fairy king Oberon and the three witches.

And there is another possibility that it is a karmic or world-changing Noble Phantasm.

A gun that reverses cause and effect with a legend that is sure to stab the heart, a time-changing gun, or a treasure that can change the world.

The trickiest of these is, of course, the altered Noble Phantasm.

It's easy to summon it, no matter what kind of hero it is, it's just a fictional existence in the end.

As long as you recognize this, it is not difficult to break it.

However, causal change is a technique that is not in the same dimension as that kind of thing.

It is a deception of time, space, or the world itself.

There is no such thing as an "impossible" change.

Thinking of this, Joan of Arc's brow furrowed more and more, and as she kept advancing, a door appeared in front of her again.

After pushing it away, Joan of Arc finally came to the place he was looking for.

"Here it isβ€”"

Looking around, Joan of Arc noticed that it was a vast space with almost no boundaries in sight.

But even if S is standing from Joan of Arc's point of view, he can clearly see the huge chalice placed in the central part.

Able to sense that the Servant is a ride.

Because Amakusa Shiro Shizhen was not a servant of the Holy Grail War, he couldn't sense it, but he couldn't be in this place.

"Come out, Red Caster."

"Oooo Even if you don't shout or shout, I'll come out on my own! Combining Dancheng, spirit, sincerity, and all sorts of other things, my book is finally complete! ”

Shakespeare, who had been spiritualized, finally appeared.

He is dressed in a casual medieval aristocratic attire, with a pen in his hand and a thick book under his arm.

"Shakespeare!"

Although he had already heard of his name, this was the first time Joan of Arc had met him.

The distance between the two is quite far apart.

As if standing on the stage and speaking, Shakespeare bowed his head deeply and said:

"First meeting, mad girl from the country! Oops, what a rudeness, I accidentally made the same old mistake. That's right, there's the red Caster below. ”

"Well, are you disappointed?" But Joan of Arc Dalck, there is something in the gap between heaven and earth that our philosophy is completely unimaginable! ’”

For his acting-like tone, Joan of Arc had to cough lightly and said:

"Although it is equivalent to saying it in vain, shouldn't you surrender?"

"Oh, surrender! That's really hard to do. Because of the absolute conditions at the time of surrender, you are not satisfied with even one now! ”

"You mean conditions?"

Shakespeare nodded, and wrote in the air with a quill pen, and then the words appeared in turn and moved.

"Condition one, emotional problems. As the saying goes, "There is no more terrible monster than the ungrateful", I am now receiving the blessing of the 'red' side. In terms of fashion, even with Red, you are confident that you can win the top two, so you don't want to be a monster without intelligence! ”

"Then there's condition two, the question of entertainment. The psalmist's eyes turned in the favor of heaven and looked around at the scenery from heaven to earth and from earth to heaven.' My eyes are in perfect shape right now! It's simply a creator who gets inspired. In other words, this moment is a very pleasant moment! ”

"There is also the final condition three, the question of combat power. We're far more desperate than you think. Although you rushed here, you still didn't catch up. No, I'm afraid no matter how much you rush here, it will definitely be too late! It's like Achilles and the tortoise racing. Then, since you didn't catch up, you're going to die here. ”

"Death? It seems that the battle between us is inevitable! ”

As a Ruler, Joan of Arc would actually like to avoid all the fights with Amakusa Shiro Tokisada except for Amakusa Shiro.

After all, she's a Ruler, not the other seven ranks.

It wasn't her intention to casually interfere with the red-black duel.

But since the red side wants to prevent her from meeting and duel with Amakusa Shiro Shizhen, then he will never give up easily!

With that, Joan of Arc waved the flag in her hand and rushed to Shakespeare on the opposite side.

In the face of Joan of Arc's attack, Shakespeare raised his arms in exaggerated motion, holding the book he had just tucked under his armpit.

"In that case, let's taste my treasure 'The start time is approaching, and I would like to applaud the thunder here'!"

Joan of Arc's previous fears were correct.

Shakespeare's Noble Phantasm, "Thunderous applause is coming to the show" is the world-changing Phantasm. However, it wasn't a Noble Phantasm that changed the world itself.

"Come on, my Noble Phantasm is about to open! Sit down! No smoking! Please refrain from shooting! No rude scolding! The world is in my hands, it is my stage! Now that the show begins, please give a thunderous cheer! ”

Rather, it is a stage treasure that closes the world, generates a script, and then forces the story to be staged.

At the moment when Joan of Arc's holy flag was about to pierce Shakespeare's chest, Shakespeare's Noble Phantasm had already been activated.

"Huh!?"

The surrounding scenery has changed.

Before she could understand this, the nostalgic smell of grass swept through Joan of Arc's nostrils.

"This is, my hometown!?"

Joan of Arc looked at her hands.

It was a pair of palms that helped the family do farm work since she was a child, and the bone joints looked a little bulging, which made her feel a little ashamed.

At this time, the armor she was wearing and the holy flag she was holding in her hand didn't know where it had disappeared.

"Is it a hallucination?"

This is indeed the village of Donremi, the hometown of Joan of Arc.

It was here that she received God's revelation before she went out into the outside world.

"What a bad taste!"

Thinking back on everything in the past, Joan of Arc couldn't help but frown.
