246. Joan of Arc: Did she have another girlfriend? / Fujimaru Ritsuka discovers the secret relationship (4k)

At this moment, the Holy Grail that caused the singularity has finally reappeared in the world.

But as Ian looked at it, his mindset underwent a subtle change.

Just as Jeanne Alter said—

Retrieving the Holy Grail could certainly fix the singularity in the Hundred Years' War between England and France.

But at the same time, this also means that I have to leave this place—after all, a singularity without the support of the Holy Grail will soon disappear.

This is terrible...

I had just been advising my witch sister not to have such thoughts not long ago, but now I've become so hesitant myself.

Ultimately, Joan of Arc never took her eyes off Ian, and she immediately saw through her brother's thoughts.

Wearing her wedding dress, she thought for a moment, then took his hand and reached out towards the Holy Grail in front of her.

This scene was witnessed by Jeanne Alter on the other side.

Wearing the wedding dress for the second time, she suddenly realized the difference and quickly imitated her other self's movements, taking Ian's other hand and reaching towards the Holy Grail as well.

With the combined help of his two sisters, Ian finally managed to get the Holy Grail into his hands.

"elder brother."

Joan of Arc's gentle voice rang in the man's ear.

"Don't worry about us."

"Because you said...we will definitely meet again in the future, won't we?"

“Exactly!” Jeanne Alter muttered in agreement, “Unless what you said before was a lie!”

"otherwise--"

"This is only a temporary separation!"

"..."

Hearing the comforting words from his two younger sisters, Ian's furrowed brows gradually relaxed.

"Too."

"You're right...we will definitely meet again in the future."

"Hmm~"

Joan of Arc smiled sweetly.

But soon, as if she had remembered something, she spoke again:

"Speaking of which-"

"Does brother have to leave immediately?"

“There’s no need to be in such a hurry.” Ian sensed the underlying meaning in his sister’s words. “Is there something you’re planning to do?”

"..."

Upon hearing Ian's question, Jeanne glanced at Mash, who was still lost in her kissing fantasies, and cautiously replied:

"Can I go and talk to her for a while?"

"..."

Although Ian didn't know his sister's purpose, he knew she must have her own plans.

So--

As the older brother, I should support him.

"No problem at all."

"Hmm~"

Having received permission from her brother, Joan of Arc lifted her wedding dress and walked toward Mash, who was standing nearby.

"Um, your name is Mashu, right? Can we chat for a bit?"

"Eh?"

Mashu never expected Jeanne d'Arc to come looking for her at this time.

But she didn't dislike this saintly woman who had guided everyone along the way, so she quickly nodded in agreement.

"okay, I get it."

Ever since——

The two, having reached an agreement, walked to the side.

"Um, what is it?" Mashu asked, her voice trembling.

“You don’t need to be so nervous,” Jeanne smiled gently, reassuring Mash. “I’m just asking you some very simple questions.”

If I remember correctly—

"You came here with Pierre, didn't you?"

“Pierre?” Mashu asked, puzzled.

Seeing the pink-haired girl like this, Joan of Arc quickly realized that she didn't seem to know her brother's other name.

“It’s Ian,” the saintess corrected herself.

“Oh, it’s you, senior.” Mashu nodded and replied with a smile, “Yes, we came here together.”

"That--"

Joan of Arc's gaze fell on Ian, who was chatting with another sister.

Are you and him very close?

"..."

The man's image was also reflected in Mashu's eyes.

She remained silent for a long time, then, as if making a brave decision, she took a deep breath and confessed:

“Um, Miss Jeanne… actually, I’m your girlfriend.”

"..."

Jeanne's eyes widened slightly for a moment—clearly a surprise at Mashu's words.

"You...are his girlfriend?"

"Ah."

Although she made their relationship clear, Mashu's voice became much softer.

This stark contrast immediately calmed Joan of Arc down considerably.

She realized that the "girlfriend" Mashu mentioned might be the same as the "marriage" mentioned by her other self.

That means it deviated from the original meaning and only achieved a superficial relationship.

Jeanne originally thought that Mash was a thoughtful person and would be a good match to ask her to take good care of her brother in the future.

I never expected to find out about this.

She couldn't help but ask a few more questions.

"That--"

"If you're his girlfriend, why would you allow him to marry both of us sisters?"

Just like how Jeanne Alter acknowledged that Jeanne d'Arc was her sister;

Joan of Arc also acknowledged that Jeanne d'Arc (Alter) was his sister.

“Because this was a decision made by you, senior.” Mashu replied, her face flushed but her expression firm.

"If a senior decides to do something, I will never object."

"I... will always be his supportive girlfriend!"

"..."

Mashu's single sentence confirmed Jeanne's earlier suspicions.

Upon closer examination, this was actually something that had been brewing for some time.

After all, Mashu was arguably the most enthusiastic person at the entire wedding, second only to Gilles de Rais.

Joan of Arc initially thought it was because she had a very good relationship with her brother that this happened.

Now it seems that this is not the case at all.

She and her counterpart are exactly the same—that is, she hasn't developed a normal concept of love.

In their minds, the concepts of "girlfriend" and "marriage" are perhaps just abstract pronouns.

The other self became like this because of mental instability.

Mashu seems so normal, how could this happen to her?

But no matter what, her brother was most likely protecting her.

In that case——

Let's maintain the status quo then!

My brother's actions are definitely not wrong.
