Emiya Shirou doesn't want to work overtime

Joan of Arc's expression grew increasingly somber.

These were all battles that Jeanne had not participated in. Moreover, thanks to Shirou Emiya's supplement, Jeanne also knew who the Servant who massacred the entire town on the second night was.

Jeanne d'Arc also revealed to Emiya Shirou Kotomine Shirou's true name—Amakusa Tokisada Shirou.

"The reason I was summoned this time is probably to stop Amakusa Shiro Tokisada."

Joan of Arc uttered these words with absolute certainty.

Even knowing that Amakusa Shiro Tokisada's pursuit of the Holy Grail was for the salvation of all mankind, Joan of Arc remained certain of it.

If I absolutely have to give a reason...

This is the result of her revelation.

Moreover, Joan of Arc had this feeling ever since she began her journey from Bucharest to the Red Army's location.

This feeling, coupled with the Red Team's constant changes of location in an attempt to escape her, made Joan of Arc increasingly certain of it.

From the moment she met Amakusa Tokisada, Revelation made it clear to her that she should pay any price to stop Amakusa Tokisada.

Chapter 190 Danic, Heartbroken

"Second place—ruler?"

Emiya tilted his head, somewhat puzzled, since he didn't know much about the Holy Grail War, but he still managed to come up with a solution.

"We can go and ask Danic later. He seems to be the organizer of this Holy Grail War, and perhaps he knows something about Amakusa Tokisada Shiro."

All of Shirou Emiya's knowledge of the Holy Grail War came from Darnic, and Darnic's explanations to Shirou Emiya inevitably included some of his own biases.

For example, the initiation of this Holy Grail War, and the dissatisfaction with the Mage's Association.

Although Shirou Emiya is not very familiar with these matters, he has the ability to distinguish right from wrong. Even if he cannot completely filter out those who are biased, he can still find some key information.

Although Jeanne already knew Emiya Shirou's answer, she still couldn't help but ask him.

After all, a magus who has lost his servants, his command seals, and who does not belong to the Yggdrasilia clan should stay away from the Holy Grail War.

"What are you going to do?"

Jeanne d'Arc is currently experiencing conflicting emotions. She hopes that Shirou Emiya can stay away from the Holy Grail War, but she also hopes that Shirou Emiya can lend her a helping hand.

Facing the enemy Rider and Assassin head-on, even with the Holy Grail's power, Jeanne was unsure if she could defeat them.

Moreover, Amakusa Tokisada Shirou can be considered a Heroic Spirit with combat capabilities.

Joan of Arc herself was not like those heroic spirits who came from combat backgrounds; she was more skilled at commanding battles than fighting head-on.

How to do it?

Emiya Shirou suddenly remembered Amakusa Tokisada Shirou's wish.

"To save all of humanity?"

Emiya Shirou muttered to himself, but then reaffirmed his belief.

I will help you.

Emiya looked directly into Jeanne's eyes and gave an affirmative answer.

"Thanks-!"

Jeanne thanked Emiya Shirou softly.

They quickly returned to the villa with the ingredients.

Before Emiya Shirou and Jeanne could bring the ingredients to the warehouse, a homunculus came to report.

"Lord Danic requests your presence to discuss important matters."

That's how the android spoke.

Emiya Shirou and Jeanne d'Arc exchanged glances, reached a consensus, and immediately headed towards the villa's main hall.

In the villa's lobby, in a room that resembled a conference room, almost all the androids and Yggdrasilian magicians were already inside.

They all looked troubled as they discussed how to win this Holy Grail War.

With only one rider, and such weak strength, they had little confidence in winning the Holy Grail War.

"You two are finally back."

Corres pushed Fiore's wheelchair to Shirou Emiya and Jeanne d'Arc.

"Please sit down first."

Fiore addressed Shirou Emiya and Jeanne d'Arc with utmost politeness.

Both Shirou Emiya and Jeanne could see the weariness constantly emanating from her eyes.

Since the departure of Darnic's servant Vlad III and the theft of the Greater Grail, Darnic's hair turned white almost overnight. He relinquished all his possessions and entrusted everything to Fiore.

Perhaps the extravagance of the villa temporarily distracted Danic, but when he calmed down and thought things through, he quickly realized one thing: the Yggdmillennia family had withdrawn from the Holy Grail War.

None of the remaining Servants of the Black faction belong to the Yggdrasilian race, and Astolfo is not a Yggdrasilian Servant, but rather the Servant of that Homunculus.

The key point is that Danic has no way to take away Astolfo's contract. Even if he did, Astolfo is willing to help the Black faction win the Holy Grail, so the probability of winning is still very slim.

But Danic knew he had to give the magicians of the Yggdrasilia clan hope of seizing the Holy Grail, especially since he had gathered so many magicians to fight against the Magicians' Association.

On the one hand, it was because it did indeed have a lot of financial resources, and on the other hand, Danic had full confidence and also made a guarantee to the magicians under him to win the Holy Grail War.

If they were to announce their withdrawal from the Holy Grail War at this point, the Yggdrasilia clan would almost certainly fall apart, except for a few loyal members.

No matter what, Danic couldn't reveal his thoughts.

However, he couldn't help but feel depressed, so he delegated many decisions that were originally Danic's responsibility to Fiore.

Fiore was constantly caught up in such complicated matters and had little time to calm down and think things through, temporarily ignoring the fact that the remaining Servants and their fighting strength were basically not from the Yggdrasilia clan.

"hello!"

Astolfo, however, remained as energetic as ever, greeting Shirou Emiya and Jeanne d'Arc.

"I am truly sorry that I was unable to provide you with adequate hospitality."

Danic stood up and spoke apologetically to Joan of Arc.

The castle of the Yggdrasilnia clan was destroyed, the homunculi were almost all killed or wounded, and the magicians also suffered heavy losses. It can be said that everyone had their own things to do, and even with the arrival of Jeanne, they could hardly spare the time to entertain her.

In this respect, Kairi Shishikage and Shirou Emiya received the same treatment, since neither of them belonged to the Yggdrasilia clan, and Fiore did not want them to get involved in her affairs.

For Shiki Jie Li, the idea of ​​getting paid without having to work was indeed very appealing.

"No need for such formalities, Master of Black Lancer."

Joan of Arc shook her head, indicating that she didn't care about the matter.

However, there is something more important that Joan of Arc needs to ask Danic.

Have you ever heard of the name Amakusa Tokisada Shiro?

The moment Joan of Arc uttered the name Teishiro Amakusa, Danic's entire body trembled violently, his eyes fixed on Joan of Arc, utterly shocked by the name she had suddenly mentioned.

"Where did you get this name from!?"

Danic did not answer Joan's question immediately, but instead asked Joan in disbelief.

"The Master of the Red Assassin is Amakusa Tokisada Shirou. He is an employee of the Church of Christ, and another name for him is Kotomine Shirou."

Joan of Arc did not hide anything about this; in fact, there was nothing to hide, since Joan of Arc's goal had now shifted from maintaining the Holy Grail War to stopping Amakusa Tokisada.

Based on this behavior, Joan of Arc could even choose to join the Black Faction to fight against Amakusa Tokisadarou.

Only after Amakusa Tokiseishiro's departure will Jeanne d'Arc choose to continue the Holy Grail War.

Chapter 191 Joan of Arc Joins the Black Faction

"It's not a loss we didn't deserve, it's not a loss we didn't deserve!"

Danic seemed to have suddenly gone mad, covering his face and laughing wildly, an extremely eerie aura emanating from the hall.

It sent chills down the spines of everyone below.

Joan of Arc wanted to go and check on Danic's condition.

But before Joan of Arc could stand up, Danic uttered words that shocked everyone.

"Amakusa Tokisada Shiro is a Heroic Spirit summoned by the Einzbern family during the Third Holy Grail War, and is also the Ruler of the Third Holy Grail War."

Jeanne d'Arc knew that Amakusa Tokisei Shirou was a Ruler like herself, but she did not know that Amakusa Tokisei Shirou was a Servant in the Third Holy Grail War.

Even though Amakusa Tokisadashiro had already been defiled, Joan of Arc was still able to see through his position.

However, just as Joan of Arc was about to say something, Danic began to mutter to himself again.

"So it turns out I wasn't the only one plotting for the Holy Grail for six or seven decades."

Danic naturally deduced why the Great Grail, which he had hidden beneath the castle of the Yggdmillennia clan, had been discovered.

Who exactly took it? Even the Magicians' Association only knew that Danic possessed the Greater Grail, but they didn't know its exact location.

Danic's protection of the Greater Grail was so thorough that even when the magicians from the Magicians' Association came to the castle of the Yggdrasilia clan, they could not detect the slightest trace of the Greater Grail.

Even with such precautions, Amakusa Tokisada Shiro still managed to find him.

Originally, according to Danic's plan, he had been plotting for so long, preparing so many relics, and even summoning Vlad III, who had a local advantage.

Against those insignificant members of the Magicians' Association, victory is almost guaranteed.

Unlike Shishikatsu Kairi, the arrogant magicians in the Magicians' Association would find it difficult to unite and fight against him.

From all factors, the Yggdrasilia clan is basically guaranteed to win.

However, because of factors like Amakusa Tokisada Shiro, Danic quickly came to understand that since he had been planning for sixty or seventy years, there was no reason why Amakusa Tokisada Shiro, who was from the same era as him and was also a Heroic Spirit, had not made more preparations.

Both sides are planning something, and the competition is to see who can think of more.

It is clear that Amakusa Tokisada Shiro's thinking was far more advanced than Danic's.
