Anime: Blue-Eyes Baby Dragon, picked up by the Knight King

But do we really want to respond to this call?

Shirataki, who had already sensed a sense of despair and anger from the call, blinked at Altria.

"Eh, instead of being a hero who saves the world, he's coming as a villain who destroys it?"

Altria said in surprise.

Shirataki thought she would naturally refuse the summons.

But what Shirataki didn't expect was——

"Of course I'm going!"

"I also want to experience the feeling of being in darkness and despair, waiting to be rescued."

"Eh eh eh???"

……

1431 AD.

Orleans, France.

This was once a heroic city. Just a year ago, the saintly maiden who descended from the sky led a group of defeated soldiers and defeated the British army that had invaded French territory, greatly boosting the morale of the French people.

But who could have thought of it?

In just one year, the saint who once saved the country fell into depravity and became a witch who wanted to destroy the country.

"Destroy, destroy, destroy."

"Burning in my wrath!"

The white-haired witch, commanding a flying dragon that does not belong to this era, vents her anger on the city.

Buildings were destroyed, people were killed, and everything of value was destroyed - along with the country she had sworn to protect with her life!

"Your Highness, how do you feel?"

In the burning city, a magician with eyes almost popping out stood behind the Dragon Witch, asking her how she felt.

"Is boring."

"I want to laugh too."

"It makes me laugh to think that I once gave my life for these stupid guys."

The Dragon Witch answered bluntly.

She was tired of all this fighting and killing - the anger in her heart could not be quelled by killing these ordinary people and destroying a city like this.

"Jill, is there a faster way?"

"I don't want to stay in this country or this land anymore!"

The former saint, now a witch, did not hide her disgust for this land at all.

And this is exactly the scene that the magician named Gilles Delais wanted to see.

"Of course, Your Highness, of course there is!"

The magician led the witch to the square in the center of the city.

There, a summoning ritual had been set up, waiting for her call.

"Go, Your Highness the Saint."

"By offering this city, you will summon the help you need."

……

Black Jeanne stood in the center of the summoning ritual.

The summoning spell, sensing the fluctuations of her magic power, took effect immediately.

Exclusive concept extraction:

【France】; 【Dragon】.

Therefore, the heroic spirits summoned to this land must have a connection with these two concepts.

"Om-"

Black magical power waves hummed above the summoning ritual.

The seven heroic spirits, their bodies shrouded in black aura, slowly opened their eyes with expressions of either confusion or excitement.

"How did I become like this?"

Artoria, who was also summoned here, looked at the full set of armor on her body that even covered her face, wondering why she needed such strict protection?

"Shh, don't make any noise."

"You don't want others to know that a dignified Knight King is doing such a sneaky thing, right?"

Shirataki, who was also summoned to this land, also shrunk his body to about three or four meters in size and changed himself into a new vest:

【White Dragon Paladin】A few...

Chapter 76 She Should Also Be Saved

【Finally here, my companion.】

[I am your Master, Jeanne Alter! ]

【Destruction and killing are the orders I give you.】

If there is a vibrant street, destroy it to your heart's content.

【If there is a village full of life, ravage it to your heart's content.】

[No matter how evil, no matter how cruel.]

[God will forgive me, right?]

[Even if I will be punished by God in the end, that doesn't matter.]

[Because that is the means to prove God's existence and God's love for the world!]

……

This is not a summoning of heroic spirits in the normal sense.

Because of the witch's anger, a layer of faint black mist appeared on the summoned heroic spirits.

【Frenzy】.

Be it the noble saint or the wild god... under the influence of this frenzied aura, they can no longer maintain their personal will and are forced to follow the orders of Black Jeanne d'Arc.

——Except Shirataki.

"No impact?"

"Don't worry, it's just the rage of a little girl. Compared to the curse that afflicts all of Britain, this level of frenzy pales in comparison."

The shrunken white dragon and Artoria, who was tightly wrapped in metal armor, were whispering about the currently known information.

Their - or rather, "her" job is [Saber]. Because of their affinity with "Dragon", they were summoned to this land and became one of the six thugs under Black Jeanne d'Arc.

"What's wrong with this girl? I feel like she and I are really not compatible!"

Looking at the unruly figure of Black Jeanne, Altria frowned slightly.

The "incompatibility" here doesn't mean dislike, but rather a natural incompatibility. It's like a stray cat meeting a stray dog—they rarely meet, but when they do, it's a head-on collision.

"Hmm...if it's not because of the reversal, then it must be because she once fought against the British invaders, right?"

"And you were once the King of Britain."

"Huh? Britain? Invaders?"

"Yes, but don't worry, the British of this era are no longer Celtic. The Anglo-Saxons are the main ethnic group in Britain."

"!!!"

Hearing this unbelievable news, Artoria's eyes widened.

A strong murderous aura suddenly emanated from her body - it was the murderous aura formed by having fought more than ten battles of varying sizes against the alien race, and not hesitating to turn the entire island into a sea of ​​corpses and blood, in order to completely drive the Saxons out of the island.

For a time, she thought she had succeeded.

But who would have thought that the Saxons would come back after she left and even actually occupy the island!

Moreover, those damned Saxons, after seizing that island, continued to launch evil wars of aggression elsewhere!

"Then I will defeat them!"

Suddenly, a strong fighting spirit emanated from Artoria, and this "invincible" aura even attracted the attention of the Dragon Witch next to her who was born out of revenge.

—The noble and upright Knight King would certainly not bring himself to massacre unarmed civilians and destroy a town brimming with life.

——But if you engage in a head-on battle with those shameful Ansa bandits... I'm sorry, she will show you what an [alien killing machine] is.

"Wow, nice momentum."

"I like!"

Black Jeanne d'Arc looked at the dragon knight who suddenly became eager to fight and nodded with satisfaction.

well.

This is exactly the effect she wants.

……

The Dragon Witch finished announcing her orders.

At the same time, these summoned heroes are also given the most basic "dominance" authority.

Flying dragons - creatures summoned to this land by the banner of the Dragon Witch, become "soldiers" that the Heroic Spirits can use at will to help them clear the "obstacles" of this world as quickly as possible.

Artoria refused the dragons' help.

Of course, it could also be said that Shirataki refused to associate with these inferior giant lizards that only had the appearance of dragons but not the true nature of dragons.

"Find an opportunity and get rid of them."

"There's another big one, there's a chance we can take it out too."

"The thought of breathing the same air with these dragons makes me want to throw up..."

Shirataki communicated with Altria in a low voice.

Perhaps dragons are truly arrogant creatures—they rightly look down on inferior dragonborn, and show even deeper hostility towards those who are almost on the same level as themselves.

"What about these civilians?"

"We have to find a way to protect them!"

Altria was worried about something else.

After all, she is a noble knight, and even in this situation she is still considering the safety of civilians.

"If you really feel bad, we can just kill that Black Jeanne d'Arc."

"Although she is indeed the Master, her Command Spell cannot affect me—"

Shirataki said easily.

After leaving the [Hell-level Dungeon] in Britain, he suddenly felt that everything around him became simpler.

The Dragon Witch, the Avenger Joan of Arc - the names sound impressive, but in terms of real strength, she is probably no match for a shot thrown by Scathach; in terms of the threat she poses to the world, she is no match for the despair and curse that wants to stop the change of times.

The only thing he needs to worry about is Fafnir, the demon dragon summoned along with Black Jeanne, but Shirataki is confident he can defeat it. It's no exaggeration to say that he came to this era specifically to defeat it!

"We can just solve this problem."

"If you want."

Shirataki gave the simplest and most brutal, but also the most effective suggestion.

Altria thought about this suggestion seriously - but in the end, she shook her head and rejected the proposal of "solving the problem with violence."

"Do not."
