As Abigail, I caused trouble in infinite space.

"Your Excellency, you must be tired from your long journey. Please come with me into the village."

Seeing the village chief's enthusiasm, the bishop was also very pleased. He waved to his subordinates in the distance, signaling that they could come over.

Subsequently, under the village chief's arrangement, the group moved into the village church.

For some reason, there were no priests or nuns in the church here, but the church did not seem to be neglected.

“Village chief, it seems that the people in the village all believe in the great Lord. No wonder this is the place the Lord sent us to.”

"Yes, that's right, we all have a devout faith in the Lord, especially that little girl Joan of Arc. She said she had seen angels."

Joan of Arc!

At this point, the bishop's voice involuntarily rose several decibels.

What happened to Joan of Arc?

"I'm a little excited to see the bishop," you asked, somewhat curiously, "village chief."

"Village chief, this young lady named Joan of Arc must be an extremely devout girl. I wonder if I could meet her?"

Although he had been somewhat excited upon suddenly hearing the name "Zhen," the bishop had now regained his composure and calmly addressed the village chief. If he wasn't mistaken, this was indeed the saint's hometown.

After the village chief agreed, they walked out of the church. The bishop made the sign of the cross in front of him, thanking God for His blessing.

Not long after, a teenage girl, led by the village chief, came before the bishop and his companions.

Looking at the little girl following behind the village chief, the bishop could tell she was very excited, even though she tried her best to restrain herself.

"Child, are you the little girl who claims to have seen an angel?"

"Yes...yes! Your Excellency!"

"Don't be nervous. We are all just believers in the Lord. It's just that I started believing in the Lord earlier than you."

The girl in front of him was really ordinary, no different from any other rural girl, but the bishop was very pleased that he could feel an unusual power from this little girl. It seemed that this little girl really was Joan of Arc.

"Child, could you tell me your name first?"

“Yes, of course, Your Excellency. My name is Joan of Arc.”

"You said you've seen angels, is that true?"

"Of course, Your Excellency, I would not lie to you. I really did see an angel, and the angel told me to drive away the English and lead the Crown Prince to Reims for his coronation."

"That's right! That's right, you are Joan of Arc!"

The bishop said excitedly that he finally understood the purpose of their trip. In the legend, Joan of Arc was framed by those selfish people and even burned at the stake as a witch. How could such a devout saint have such an ending? It must be that God was not satisfied with this result, so He sent them here to help the saint.

"Um, Your Excellency, you just said Joan of Arc was... a saint?"

“That’s right, this is the task that the Lord has given us. We must help the Saintess complete the task that the Lord has assigned to her.”

Yes, after the village chief finished speaking, the bishop turned to look at Joan of Arc:

"Joan of Arc, although you have received guidance from the Lord, you are still just an ordinary village girl. Do you have the confidence to complete the task the Lord has given you?"

"Yes, Your Excellency, now that I have received the Lord's grace, I will certainly complete the task that the Lord has entrusted to me."

Looking at Joan of Arc, with her devout and resolute demeanor, the bishop nodded in satisfaction.

"Don't worry, child, the Lord will protect you."

Afterwards, the protagonist talked a lot with Joan of Arc, and the more he learned about her, the more convinced he became that the girl was the legendary saint.

And when he saw the white creature named Cupid, he fully understood that protecting Joan of Arc was the mission the Lord had given him.

This is actually quite normal. Their master would naturally not tell them in detail about something as important as being able to grant other people's wishes. So their task was to find this white beast and bring it back.

So when the bishop saw Cupid with Joan of Arc, he mistakenly took Cupid for the sacred beast and misinterpreted the task his Lord had given him. He believed it was a test from God, to help Joan of Arc complete the task assigned by God, and the sacred beast was the sign of whether they had succeeded.

Finally, on the eve of their parting, Joan of Arc told the bishop her thoughts, expressing her wish to travel with him to Chinon, the residence of the crown prince, after a period of preparation.

The bishop naturally wouldn't refuse, and he stated at the time:

“Joan of Arc, we have come here to take you to where you want to go. You are the chosen saint, and we will follow your every decision.”

So, in the blink of an eye, the bishop and his companions had been living in the village for several days.

Then, it was time to officially set off.

In history, Joan of Arc's first attempt was a failure.

At first, the bishop had considered this matter, but in the end he made up his mind that since the Lord had sent them to change Joan of Arc's fate, it would be enough for Joan of Arc to move forward with the task the Lord had given her. As for the minor details, the Lord would certainly not care.

With the help of religion, Joan of Arc successfully found the local garrison commander, Botticul, in Vaucouleur, the nearest city to their village, and gained his trust.

Of course, even with his recommendation as a bishop, Botticul still hoped that Joan of Arc could prove her abilities. Since she was chosen by the Lord to save their country, she must have abilities beyond those of ordinary people.

So Joan of Arc went to the nearest battlefield and handed over command of the army there to her. It was just a small skirmish, not a major battle, but it was a good opportunity to prove her abilities.

This was a counterattack, a retaliation against the English for invading one of their local villages; they had to make that force pay for their actions.

When the two armies faced each other, although the knights who had accompanied Joan of Arc were capable of easily defeating all the opposing soldiers, they did not do so. As the bishop was leaving, he solemnly told them that this battle was a stage given to Joan of Arc by the Lord to showcase her talents, and it was also a test for her. They only needed to protect Joan of Arc in the most dangerous moment.

Of course, he did not disappoint the protagonist's expectations of him, or rather, this was a predetermined thing.

In this battle, Joan of Arc demonstrated her extraordinary command ability. Even though it was only her first time commanding, she still achieved a remarkable victory.

Before the battle, the soldiers were pessimistic about what would happen, but after the battle, they were completely convinced that this was the saintess, the one sent by God to save them.

When Joan of Arc returned to Vaucouleur, she was once again warmly welcomed by Botrycur. And, thanks to the propaganda of the soldiers who had fought alongside her, the name of Saint Joan of Arc began to spread throughout the region, and people knew that there was a saint chosen by God to save them.

Chapter 307 The Story of Joan of Arc

Joan of Arc's story continues.

With her victory in this battle, and with the assurance of a cardinal, Botrycur finally agreed to escort Joan of Arc to Chinon.

To minimize trouble along the way, she disguised herself as a man and disguised the escorting team as a Vatican rescue team.

Of course, Joan of Arc spared no effort in helping and rescuing innocent civilians and wounded soldiers along the way.

"Indeed, this is the quality that a saintess should possess."

The bishop was very pleased with Joan of Arc's performance along the way.

Of course, there were no major problems along the way. They traversed the vast enemy territory of Burgundy and finally arrived at Prince Charles's castle in Chinon.

The first meeting went smoothly, and Joan of Arc made a deep impression on Charles. Charles then instructed that a background investigation and theological examination be conducted on Joan of Arc in Poitiers to confirm her morality.

Historically, Joan of Arc would have been perfectly fine at this time, but this time a problem arose—because the bishop was not from this era.

In fact, the bishop had already foreseen this problem before he even stood in the position of the judge in the courtroom. They did not belong to this era, so their existence was not recognized by this era. If they were merely knights, they might not be noticed in this era, but a cardinal was at the very top of the Papacy's power.

Cardinals, also known as cardinals, are the highest bishops in the Papacy, appointed directly by the Pope. They are in charge of various departments of the Papacy and leadership of important dioceses in many countries.

It can be said that there are very few such people, and each of them was a well-known figure at the time, so this suddenly appearing protagonist was naturally easy to find out.

When the court officials came to arrest them, the captain of the knights who had come with him was prepared to resist, but was stopped by the bishop.

The bishop knew very well that if they wanted to rebel, no one in this era could stop them. The people here were all mortals; how could they possibly stop those who had received God's blessing?

But it would be pointless. If they did that, it would only implicate Joan of Arc and completely rewrite her story.

Therefore, the bishop followed the inquisitors to the location of the court without resistance.

Despite the judges' gaze in the courtroom, the bishop remained unmoved, his expression still so kind.

"Do you have anything else to say? You imposter, a cardinal! Tell me, what is your true identity? And what gives you the audacity to do such a thing?"

“Child, you may find it hard to believe, but we were actually sent by the Lord to help the Holy Maiden complete her mission.”

The judge stared at the bishop below, and inexplicably, he seemed to sense the divine light emanating from this bishop, a feeling he had never experienced with anyone else. Had this man received the Lord's grace? How could that be?

"Nonsense!!"

Seemingly anticipating the judge's reaction, the bishop remained unfazed.

“Child, it’s normal that you don’t believe. You don’t have to believe me, but don’t you believe in the great Lord?”

As the bishop spoke, he began to make the sign of the cross on his chest. At the same time, a warm holy light began to shine from the bishop's body.

In this age, all language is inadequate; rather than trying to persuade them with wisdom, it is better to let them experience the glory of the Lord directly.

"This is......"

Suddenly, the entire courtroom erupted in chaos. No one had expected that what was supposed to be a routine trial of heretics would turn into such a miraculous scene.

“My child, this is the gift the Lord has given me. You should be able to feel the Lord’s warm presence in it.”

"This...this..."

The judges were stunned. They had never experienced anything like this before. Although they all believed that God was watching over them, none of them had ever truly felt His grace. Therefore, the Vatican at the time even believed that no one could feel God's grace.

However, what happened today defies their common sense.

Although rationally the judge did not believe such a thing could happen, emotionally he hoped it was true.

Seeing that the judge seemed to be still hesitating, the bishop gently shook his head and sighed.

“Child, it seems you are still hesitant. Come with me, and I will show you the gifts that the Lord has given me.”

After the bishop finished speaking, he turned and walked towards the entrance of the courtroom. None of the soldiers in the courtroom tried to stop him from leaving, but they still followed him. The judge also got down from his seat and followed the bishop, as did the others in the courtroom.

Outside the courtroom, a large crowd walked down the street, wondering what the bishop was up to. Yet, the bishop's aura continued to shimmer, making him appear like a messenger of God.

Just then, the bishop suddenly stopped.

The others then watched as the protagonist stopped in front of a beggar.

The beggar suddenly sensed that a large group of people had stopped, and then looked up at the cardinal standing in front of him, not knowing what to do for a moment.

"Child, you are very lucky, God bless you."

Before the beggar could understand what was going on, the bishop smiled slightly, and a ray of holy light shone on the beggar.

At this moment, the group of people following the bishop looked at the holy light and exclaimed in surprise again. Some sharp-eyed people suddenly noticed that the mud on the beggar's body disappeared in the holy light, and the beggar's wounds were also healing.

"This is simply a miracle!"

At this moment, someone couldn't help but exclaim in amazement. After all, such a thing could only be described as a miracle. If there were any people who doubted the bishop's identity before, now everyone was completely impressed by this miraculous scene.

As for the person involved in this incident, the beggar, who was originally extremely weak, suddenly felt that his body was full of strength, just like he had just finished a big meal. More importantly, the stains, wounds and some hidden injuries left inside his body disappeared. In an instant, he felt extremely relaxed.

He looked at the bishop, too excited to speak.
