Chapter 173

After some deliberation, the party decided to settle down in the forest for a while today, and then go to meet Matthew tomorrow.

Even if Luo Zhen wanted to join Mathew earlier, on the one hand, his magic power had not been fully recovered; on the other hand, because of the French army, there were a large number of people and it was quite inconvenient to move. When Luo Zhen just withdrew from Orleans, if he acted rashly, he might be found by the followers who came after him and targeted him.

After careful consideration, Luo Zhen reluctantly admitted that it was not the time to act in a hurry, so he conveyed the meaning of this side to Roman through the communication device, and asked Roman to inform Matthew.

Roman nature will not have any opinion, the perfect play as a backup ability, the action of fire.

To sum up, the party continued to hide and recuperate in the forest.

As Mary and Amadeus had arrived in this forest in advance, they knew something about the situation here, and they volunteered to take some responsibility.

"Although the follower does not need to eat, as long as there is magic to provide enough to survive, but Lorelei is the Lord of mankind, not without food."

Amadeus started with such a sentence and went to the depths of the forest to hunt.

"Then I'll go to get water. A lovely deer I met here told me where to drink water safely."

Mary said some unknown and disturbing words, and then left on her own.

Only Luo Zhen and Joan of arc are left in the same place. One needs to recover the consumed magic power and the other needs to recover the accumulated damage. Both of them are inconvenient to move.

In this way, the sky gradually getting late, so that the evening has come.

Over the forest, the sun's brilliance falls down, bringing a sad atmosphere.

Luo Zhen, who had been sitting under a tree, opened his eyes.

"The magic is almost restored."

Feeling the magic in the body, Luo Zhen nodded with satisfaction.

"Although it's only about 70% or 80% restored, it's up to the magic circuit to run by itself."

In this way, by the time I wake up tomorrow, the magic will be completely restored.

"I hope everything goes well with Matthew."

Luo Zhen is worried about his younger generation, but he can't help murmuring.

The murmur seemed to be heard.

"Is that Matthew your follower?"

Zhende did not know when she had finished her rest. She was standing up from another tree, looking at Luo Zhen and chuckling.

Different from the rebellious and hateful black Joan of arc, the saint's smile is very peaceful and gentle, which makes people a little fascinated.

"Yes." Luo Zhen narrowed his eyes, as if she was dazzled by Joan's smile, and said, "are you ok?"

"Yes." Zhende nodded and said sincerely: "because there is no relationship between the spirit core and the injury, there is no obstacle to the recovery of the injury."

Generally speaking, the follower is the same as the living automatic puppet. As long as it has magic power, all injuries will recover at a very fast speed, unless the spirit core is injured or the spirit base itself suffers an indelible heavy damage.

Fortunately, since there is no lord, and the Holy Grail calls itself, all followers, including Joan of arc, are provided with magic power by the Holy Grail, so there is no need to worry too much about the loss of magic power.

Since the magic is sufficient, it will not take much time for Joan of arc to recover.

So

"Even now we can fight normally. Please don't mention me, Lord."

Zhen de Bento benevolence did not let like to explain this point.

"The Lord?"

Luo Zhen scratched his cheek.

Strictly speaking, Joan of arc is not Luo Zhen's contract follower.

However, in order to fight in the future, Luo Zhen also proposed a temporary contract to Zhende and his party, so that he could provide magic power and enhance their fighting effectiveness. He could also use the magic spell to strengthen them.

In this way, it seems natural that Joan of arc called Luo Zhen the emperor.

It's just

"Since you call me Lord, I'll have to do my duty to ask again."

Luo Zhen looks at Joan of arc and makes a sound like this.

"Is that really good?"

This is a question that has been asked during the day.

And its implication is very simple.

"Are you really going to fight for France again? Joan of Arc

Luo Zhen finally asked this question.

No way.

"As the Dragon witch said, France betrayed you and watched you be burned. What you tried to protect in your life turned out to be like this to you. Even if you don't hate it, there's no reason to continue fighting to protect it?"Luo Zhen looked at Joan tightly, and said so.

"Do you really have no hatred in your heart?"

This is what Luo Zhen always wanted to ask Joan.

In this regard, Joan of arc was confused and fell into a little silence.

However, after a silence, Joan of arc did not hesitate to answer Luo Zhen.

"Yes."

Joan said so.

"There is not a trace of hatred in my heart."

So even hesitation did not have a trace of hesitation answer, let Luo Zhen completely stunned.

Luo Zhen almost blurted out.

"Why?"

Yeah.

Why?

Why are you still able to stand up for them despite being betrayed like this?

Rowe really doesn't understand that.

But Joan's answer is still as simple as that.

"Because, I've accepted the ending long ago."

Joan raised her head and looked at the setting sun. Her voice, like that from a distant place, sounded slowly.

"I knew for a long time that I would eventually be executed."

This is not a prophecy, not to mention a prophecy, but a intuition in Joan's heart.

And the reason for this intuition is simple.

"I'm just a country girl who doesn't know the sky and the earth. I've never been a saint. After hearing the voice of the LORD by chance, I left my hometown impulsively without even considering the difficulties and obstacles ahead."

Joan murmured to herself.

"As a result, in order to save the motherland, I took many lives from the enemy countries."

"As a result, in order to liberate people from the pain of war, I personally took away the hope of many enemies who fell under me."

"I left my hometown rashly and made a wish I didn't know the sky high. As a result, my hands were stained with a lot of blood."

"In this way, if I don't get executed, that's not normal."

Joan's story, let Luo Zhen open his mouth, but can't even say a word.

That's what I mean?

"You Do you feel guilty

Luo Zhen's tone is extremely heavy and bitter.

In return, Joan answered without thinking.

"Yes."

That's why Joan of arc has no hatred at all.
