"..."
Although he wasn't quite sure why his sister asked this, Ian quickly answered in the affirmative.
"Well, you're right."
"Her birth was a tragedy."
"That--"
Jeanne looked up at her brother.
"What kind of person do you think she is?"
"..."
Ian frowned slightly and thought about this question.
After a long while, he spoke again:
"If you ask me... I'm probably a pitiful person, right?"
"Poor man?"
"Yeah." Ian nodded.
"She actually has no idea what she is doing and has never thought about her future goals."
"The only principle behind her actions is 'instinct' and... feelings that even she herself is not quite clear about."
"Tell me the truth—"
"I think she's a bit like you when you're sleepwalking."
"Eh?!"
Jeanne showed a surprised look.
But soon, this surprise quickly turned into a new plan.
Jeanne took over Ian's words and continued:
"What if that's the case—"
"I do have an idea."
"what idea?"
"Hmm..." Jeanne pointed a finger at herself.
"Since my brother thinks that she and I have something in common—"
"Then why not just acknowledge this sister for real!"
244. Black Jeanne: Is there really anyone who has never been married to Ian? (4k)
"..."
Ian never expected that Joan of Arc would make such a suggestion at this time.
He subconsciously denied it.
"Jeanne...is this bad?"
"why not?"
Jeanne blinked her beautiful blue eyes.
"Brother, the other 'me'... is obviously also very pitiful."
"I know nothing and understand nothing. I came into this world just because someone prayed for my resurrection."
"Since my brother has decided to save this world--"
"Then she should be redeemed as well."
"and--"
"If you really want to make a fuss about it."
There was a hint of guilt in Joan of Arc's eyes.
"We are one of the reasons why she came into this world, aren't we?"
"..."
Ian thought carefully about what Joan of Arc had just said and found that it was indeed correct in a sense.
after all--
If Gilles de Rais had not misunderstood Joan of Arc's "death" at the beginning, the series of events that followed would naturally not have happened.
However, although he agreed with Joan of Arc's statement, Ian still had doubts in his heart.
"That--"
"Jeanne, how are you going to make the other 'you' a sister?"
"Hehe~" Jeanne smiled mischievously, "I don't know either~"
"But surely it wouldn't be wrong to meet her first?"
"We're all going together?"
Ian's eyes swept over Mashu, Mordred, and Fujimaru Ritsuka who were present.
They were trying to comfort Gilles de Rais, who was overwhelmed with grief, with words - no one would have thought that such a strong man would feel so guilty.
"No." Joan of Arc shook her head.
"If everyone goes, it will be too oppressive."
"Brother~"
"Just the two of us."
"..."
Although it feels a bit dangerous for the two of them to face Black Jeanne directly.
But seeing the determined look in his sister Joan's eyes, Ian did not hesitate any longer.
"okay, I get it."
"If you think this is okay, let's give it a try."
Ian was the absolute core of everyone present.
After hearing his plan to go into the city alone with Joan of Arc.
Although everyone had some doubts in their hearts, no one raised any objections.
This is not difficult to understand.
A man who can resolve a major crisis that requires a group of people to face within three hours, his words are naturally credible.
Ever since——
Ian and his sister once again walked into the Demon City of Orleans and headed directly towards the castle where the Dragon Witch Black Jeanne was.
Walking on the road, Jeanne's expression gradually became more and more surprised because of the scenery around her.
This city is completely different from the one she remembered - after all, this is the place that experienced the battle of dragons!
Joan of Arc still remembered the dilapidated state she saw when she first came here, but now it has completely disappeared.
As if he had seen through his sister's thoughts, Ian quickly spoke:
"Does it feel strange?"
Knowing that she had nothing to hide in front of her brother, Jeanne nodded.
"Yes."
"It's completely different from the Orleans I remember...it's even more beautiful than it was back then."
"It's a given."
Ian's eyes swept across the buildings on the street and at a glance caught the traces of magic echoing in the air.
He continued to explain.
"because--"
"These are all projected through magic, so they are naturally much more beautiful than the original buildings."
"Eh?"
Joan of Arc was surprised at first, but soon fell into a kind of sadness.
There was even a hint of sympathy in her eyes.
"elder brother."
"Has the other 'me' always been living in this illusory environment?"
"..."
Ian knew what Joan was thinking.
He rubbed Jeanne's head and said gently:
"That's enough, Jeanne."
"It's not your fault... You didn't want this to happen, did you?"
"Hmm~" Joan of Arc nodded, knowing that Ian was trying to enlighten her.
"Brother, let's hurry up!"
"it is good."
With completely different thoughts from when he left, Ian took Joan of Arc back to the door of the bridal chamber where he slept with the Dragon Witch.
And at this time, something unexpected happened.
Jeanne reached out her hand to stop Ian, then said:
"elder brother."
"Can you let me in alone?"
"..."
Another request that sounds ridiculous.
But this time, Ian was not in a hurry to reject his sister.
"Jeanne, I have no objection to your having your own ideas."
"but--"
"Can you at least tell me why you do this?"
I heard my brother's question, which was considered quite polite.
Jeanne lowered her head and explained in a voice that was not loud but firm enough:
"I don't know what to say either."
"but--"
"I think if I could go in and meet her alone, it might make things a lot easier."
"..."
Although this doesn't sound like a valid excuse.
But seeing how determined he was to try it, Ian couldn't bring himself to refuse her request.
"I see."
Ian folded his arms across his chest and leaned against the wall next to the door.
"Since you want to go in alone--"
"Then go in alone."
