Ian's opinion is, in a sense, Joan of Arc's opinion.
"I see."
The great musician nodded.
"Since the peaceful symphony requires me to be a note in it——"
He spread his hands.
"Then I don't mind welcoming my own death."
Mozart's attitude was very clear - he did not object to being killed here.
Marie Antoinette saw him like this, hesitated for a moment, then put her hands on her waist and spoke in a serious manner:
"Really!"
"Mozart, you're speaking too fast, aren't you?! You've taken all my lines!"
As if joking, the princess from three hundred years later also looked at Joan of Arc.
"Master, I accept this outcome as well."
"Anyway——"
"As long as everyone in France lives well!"
"I don't care about the rest!"
Seeing that Mary was willing to die to repair the singularity, Ian couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
but--
It doesn’t end there.
Because Qingji came over at this time.
She stood in front of Ian, stood on tiptoe, sniffed a few times, and then said:
"Are you... a dragon?"
"what?"
Ian was a little confused.
In his past memories, he could indeed transform into Fafnir to protect his sister Jeanne.
But at this moment——
Men don't feel they still have that ability.
Seeing Ian's expression, Qingji seemed to understand something.
She sneered: "Haha...it seems that you still don't understand how to use your power."
"Forget it, this has nothing to do with me."
"Master——"
The petite Kiyohime looked at Jeanne.
"If this can solve the problem... then please kill me painfully as well."
“I have no attachment to the land itself.”
"It's not a bad thing to go back early."
Qingji's attitude was very indifferent, as if it didn't matter whether she stayed or not.
But her words made everyone focus on Gareth.
The latter also said carelessly:
"If that can solve the problem—"
"Of course I don't mind."
"Xiao Mo, it seems I can only play with you next time!"
"Eh?!"
Although Mordred was reluctant to leave her sister Gareth, she knew that this was the only way.
She wiped her eyes and replied with a smile:
"Yeah! Let's play together next time we meet~"
A cold wind blew.
The figures of the servants disappeared one after another.
Ian looked at the projection of his sword Excalibur Morgan without saying a word.
He realized that this was far more painful than he had imagined - after all, one of them was a real daughter.
but--
He also knew that this was a responsibility he had to take on.
Rather than letting his other daughter, Mordred, do it, it would be better for him, as a father, to take on all the sins.
But it’s not over yet.
In order to repair the singularity during the Hundred Years' War between England and France, in addition to dealing with all the servants who should not be here, there is a more important condition.
That is to retrieve the Holy Grail that Leif buried in this era from Jeanne d'Arc and bring it back to Chaldea.
In this way, this distorted history can be truly restored to its original state.
but--
Would the Dragon Witch really be willing to hand over the Holy Grail?
Ian didn't have the confidence to confirm it.
While the man was thinking about this question, a figure appeared at the city gate.
That was Gilles de Rey, who was disguised as a Caster (magician) in a human body. He was probably attracted here by the magic power left after the Servant dissipated.
The moment he saw Joan of Arc, the pupils of this crazy man dilated instantly, and then he knelt on the ground with a plop.
"Saint!"
"She is a true saint!"
"..."
After listening to what Gilles de Ray shouted, Ian suddenly realized that he had overlooked something.
That is, as the actual "summoner" of Black Joan of Arc, Gilles de Rais actually did not know that Joan of Arc herself was still alive.
If this could have been proven earlier, the situation might have been easier than it actually is.
but--
This doesn't seem to have much impact either.
After all, when meeting Gilles de Rais, Black Joan of Arc had already been "summoned".
Even if he knew these things, I'm afraid it wouldn't change anything.
But then again——
He was able to recognize Joan of Arc at first sight.
This kind of piety is not something that ordinary people can possess.
A few minutes later.
Gilles de Rais, who learned the truth about the past from Ian and Joan of Arc, was stunned.
He was happy that Joan of Arc was alive, but at the same time he felt extremely painful for what he had done.
"Have I... brought so much trouble to Miss Jeanne and France?"
The man who woke up was filled with regret.
Only then did he realize what a ridiculous wish he had made to the Holy Grail.
Seeing Gilles de Rais like this, Joan of Arc felt a little bit sorry.
She thought for a while, then spoke to comfort the other person.
"that--"
"Jill, I don't think you need to blame yourself so much."
"After all, from your perspective...it seems like I died in that trial."
"but--"
Joan of Arc held Ian's hand beside her, her eyes full of love.
“I have actually been rescued.”
"So I don't think you should feel guilty about this either - at least not towards me."
"After all... you wanted to revive me out of kindness, and there is nothing wrong with that."
"..."
Hearing Joan of Arc's forgiveness, Gilles de Rais could no longer control his emotions.
The tall man burst into tears like a little child, and was completely different from before.
Ian didn't say much about it - he knew the other party just meant well but had a nasty intention.
The man waited silently for Gilles de Rais to finish venting his emotions.
Finally, he calmed down.
Ian patted his shoulder and spoke in a tone that was as non-emotional as possible:
"Now that you know what you did was wrong."
"Then answer me a question."
"What can you do to make the Joan of Arc you 'summoned' hand over the Holy Grail?"
"..."
Hearing this, Gilles de Ray shook his head.
"I do not know either."
"but--"
"If we follow the original wish... this may only be possible with her own consent."
"..."
Ian did not doubt what Gilles de Ray said.
After all, during the time he was "married" to Jeanne d'Arc, he could only see the Holy Grail with her consent.
And Ian knew that if he wanted to find another way and take out the Holy Grail by violence, it would be impossible as well.
Because "attacking" Black Jeanne d'Arc is equivalent to directly "attacking" the Holy Grail - no one can be sure what will happen after that.
The atmosphere at the scene fell into silence again.
There is only one step left to repair the singularity, but I still can't take it.
Even Ian, who had experienced so much, didn't have a better solution at this moment.
And at this moment——
The man felt his sleeve being pulled.
He turned around and saw his sister Joan of Arc.
"What's wrong?" Ian asked.
"Well... I just wanted to ask you a question."
Joan of Arc, holding the holy flag, looked towards Gilles de Rais with a hint of worry in her eyes.
"Did the other 'me'...come to this world carrying all kinds of resentment?"
