Ian said nothing more.
He carried his sister on his back and got closer to where the light was.
It was a hillside.
The rushing water soaked the boy's shoes.
But at the moment, he had no intention of paying attention to these details.
Because he saw something more concerning.
I saw a large golden cup lying quietly in the pillar of light reaching the sky.
The light in the rainy night is emitted by it.
"This……"
Ian never dreamed of seeing something like this.
And Joan of Arc's eyes were filled with surprise, and she exclaimed:
"Isn't this the Holy Grail?!"
"Holy Grail?"
"Well!" Joan of Arc began to explain, "That's the cup that our Lord, called...called Jesus, used!"
“He is indeed responding to me!”
"..."
[You know Joan of Arc doesn’t like reading. 】
[Most of what she heard and knew came from the conversations of the villagers in the church. 】
[So you can’t be sure whether something “confirmed” in this way is the so-called “Holy Grail”. 】
[And more importantly, you don’t think this response is meaningful. 】
[Throwing a cup over is considered a response to one’s own believers? 】
[You find this difficult to understand. 】
[However, you do have a more realistic idea. 】
[This golden cup looks valuable. 】
[If you can take it back, you might be able to smash it and exchange it for money later. 】
[In this way, Joan of Arc can be provided with a better life. 】
[You know this idea sounds silly. 】
[But even if there is only one in [-] chance of coming true, you are willing to give it a try. 】
It's true that he wants to exchange the Holy Grail for money, but it's also true that he doesn't want his sister to get close to strange things.
Ian lowered Jeanne to the ground.
"Jeanna, wait for me, I'll go get that..."
"Holy Grail." Joan of Arc reminded.
"Yes, Holy Grail, I'll go get it."
"Hmm~"
After temporarily settling Jeanne, Ian took a deep breath and braved the rain, heading towards the place where the Holy Grail was.
I don’t know if it’s a psychological effect, or if this “Holy Grail” really has some special ability.
Ian could feel that the closer he leaned toward it, the faster his heart beat.
It was as if he was warning himself not to come over.
But he won't stop.
What Joan of Arc expected was the Lord's response, and what she needed was the funds for life.
Reach out.
hold.
Ian felt his heart skip a beat.
He looked at the "Holy Grail" in his hand.
Something's wrong - it's emitting some strange substance!
Before Ian could figure out what was going on, a scream came from behind.
"what--!"
That was Joan of Arc's voice.
"Jane!"
[You turn around. 】
[You saw an unexpected scene. 】
[On a dark night, a man with squinting eyes wearing a high hat appeared in the cold rain and came to Jeanne's side. 】
[This is why she screamed. 】
[That is a very strange man. 】
[His expression looked like he was smiling, but you just felt shuddering. 】
[You realize he is dangerous. 】
"Joan of Arc, come here quickly!"
Ian said immediately.
Although she was startled by the man's appearance, Jeanne reacted quickly after hearing her brother's words.
however--
As soon as Joan of Arc took two steps, she stopped there.
She found she couldn't move.
A more concrete feeling is like being firmly grasped by something.
"It's annoying."
The man looked at Jeanne in front of him, and his cheerful look suddenly collapsed.
This was followed by a roar:
"You two little bastards, haven't you ever heard your mother say that you should sleep well at night?"
Boom.
The sky was awakened by thunder and became temporarily brighter.
But soon, it fell into darkness again.
[You realize that the man in front of you is closely related to the "Holy Grail". 】
[The figure that was misunderstood by Jeanne just now is probably him in some way. 】
"who are you?"
Ian looked at the man in front of him with a little more fear in his eyes.
He could clearly feel that in this state at this moment, he was no match for the man.
"Hahahahaha!"
The man in the top hat laughed.
"According to the plan, I wasn't supposed to tell my name to a little bastard like you."
"but--"
"Look at your courage to ask me questions in this situation."
"I'll just give you a little reward!"
The man raised his hands in the air, widened his eyes, and looked quite crazy.
"Leif Lenore Floweros!"
"This is the last name you will ever hear in this world!"
After saying this, the man who called himself Leif stared at Jeanne who could not move.
As soon as he clenched his fist, she lifted off the ground little by little and came into the air.
The blonde girl covered her neck and rocked her feet back and forth, looking quite uncomfortable.
"Brother...help me..."
Joan instinctively turned to her brother for help.
"Let go of my sister!"
Ian roared - but the sound was immediately drowned in the rain.
"Don't worry."
Leif's expression looked a little contemptuous.
"I'm not an unreasonable person either."
"I will reunite you."
"but--"
"After death."
[You realize that going out with Joan of Arc was a very wrong decision. 】
[You have witnessed something this man does not want others to discover. 】
[He will kill Joan of Arc now, and then kill you. 】
No!
Absolutely not!
I promised my father that I would protect my sister well!
We can't let her die!
Ian's mind went blank.
The only thing I remember is to protect my sister.
The next moment, flames came out of his throat.
[The endless fury of your talent has been activated: you spewed out powerful flames again. 】
[But this time, the man was not burned like the Burgundian man before. 】
[His strength cannot be underestimated. 】
Leif dodged sideways and avoided the incoming flames.
Joan of Arc also fell to the ground and passed out.
But the man seemed no longer interested in her.
He turned back and looked at the panting Ian with interest.
"Oh, that's really unexpected."
"In this era...do dragons still exist?"
193. The boy transformed into a dragon/Joan of Arc’s kiss of thanks/The angel in her eyes (4k)
[You have lost all your mind. 】
[You have no intention of understanding what the man named Leif in front of you is talking about. 】
