Chapter 167
For a moment I looked at the still lightly shocked at the teleportation forms of Jeanne and Morgan, but I knew that Morgan was the more... Volatile woman at the moment. Jeanne was feeling depressed and lost while Morgan was feeling a Berserker class enhanced rage that was frankly understandable.
Knowing that a Noble Phantasm was a crystallization of a legend and knowing that Artoria's Noble Phantasm disregarding its once fairy forged nature and Morgan being the queen of the Fae. Excalibur Morgan had no other purpose but to destroy and corrupt all that its energies touch and had Morgan's name attached to it.
"Morgan... Artoria's Excalibur was the result of the Zoroastrian's god of the, All the Worlds Evils being forced into the blade corrupting it, plus the Morgan of her timeline unlike you, was rather unstable mentally and brought down the kingdom Artoria made." I explained and Morgan's face froze at my words.
Morgan seemed to withdraw her emotion's and regain her regal queenly demeanor. She visibly took a deep breath before speaking coolly. "Having my name used in such a tool that only brings devastation is... Unsettling to say the least but should your explanation that an Evil God truly cursed her, and the sword, is the truth. Then there is not much I can say as even I feel my emotions being pulled around by my Madness Enhancement skill let alone a god messing with her mentally."
Morgan frowned before shaking her head and sighed. "I knew when you summoned me and warned me about her, that you weren't lying about her going to bring me some form of stress. But once again as your Queen and Wife I promise that I will loyally protect you so long as you do not bring shame to me." Morgan said causally before she patted me on my shoulder. "Jake I will not attack that little girl Artoria for insulting me... However, I admit that I may begin bullying her for every moment I see that accursed blade, now go comfort that little blonde French girl that's staring at the ground like a child that accidentally ruined dinner."
After a few minutes of us standing in silence Jeanne finally spoke. "With that Jeanne dying... I don't feel complete, nor have I regained my power as I should have. Whoever created her must still be around I suppose." I nodded to her explanation as for one I knew that the insane Giles still had the grail which was propping up this Singularity.
I softly dropped my arm over her shoulder and pulled her in for a side hug as I spoke. "Jeanne we only have a couple bigger battles to go I bet. We deal with the dragons that the bad Jeanne summoned or created then we will deal with whoever created that corrupted version of you... Then this will all go away like a bad dream." I said softly as I grimaced at the knowledge that this, bubble in the timeline will be erased once we take the Grail that is propping it up.
Well better than dealing with the knowledge that I would destroying whole worlds like in the Lostbelts and instead with these Singularities we aren't killing these people and instead are just returning the worlds history to what it should have been in the normal timeline.
"Thank you, Jake." Jeanne muttered and then she wrapped her arm around my chest giving me a squeeze before she stepped out of my hug.
"Alright well let's get going before the others try to mutiny." I chuckled as me and Jeanne made our way back to the destroyed town of Lyon's and the rest of my party.
