The world of Type-Moon starts with saving Altria!

[After all, if I had seen the content of the last reply, I would never have said such a thing at this moment. ]

【You decide to pretend nothing happened. 】

【But Joan of Arc noticed all this. 】

After three months of rest, although Joan of Arc's body was not completely healed, she had recovered quite well.

"elder brother?"

"Any more letters from the village?"

Hearing this voice, Ian regretted that his movements were not clean and neat enough.

But now that he has been discovered, he doesn't plan to hide it.

"Yes."

Such an answer made Joan of Arc's beautiful blue eyes look more expectant.

"That--"

“Do they understand our situation?”

"No." Ian shook his head.

"They still very much hope that you can return to the village."

"And it seems that if you don't go back, the situation in the village will become very bad."

"This……"

Jeanne frowned slightly.

"How did it become like this?"

"I don't know." Ian looked at his sister, "But I always feel something is wrong."

"Something's not right?"

"Well...after all, if you saw our last reply, you'd be less likely to say that this time, right?"

There was a hint of caution in Ian's eyes.

"It always has a 'if you just come back' feeling."

"..."

Joan of Arc was silent for a moment before carefully asking again.

"Brother, what do you mean..."

"No," Ian replied, "and we won't reply to your letter."

"..."

Joan of Arc fell into silence again.

After a long while, she spoke again:

"Brother...I think I need to go back."

"What?" Ian was a little anxious. "No matter how you think about it, we shouldn't go back, right?"

"But--"

Jeanne's eyes were filled with worry.

"This is their third time... I can't ignore this request."

"But what if something goes wrong?" Ian asked.

"What if you really need me?"

"..."

"..."

"Since you are worried, let me go back alone. Even if something goes wrong, you can still command the rest of the people."

"..."

"Oh." Ian sighed.

"I see."

"Since you feel the need to go back—"

"Then let's go back together."

[Joan of Arc's kindness made it impossible for her to ignore the help from Domremy Village. ]

[You know this very well, and you also know that there is absolutely no way you can change her mind. ]

【So--】

【Just continue to protect her and her kindness. 】

[You plan to go back to Domremi Village.]

【Little did they know that this would be an extremely dangerous journey. 】

208. Joan of Arc's Earnest Prayer/Another Magician/Dragon's Enlightenment (4k)

[You have actually thought about whether you could send soldiers back to Domremy Village as a replacement, rather than letting Jeanne d'Arc travel through mountains and rivers.]

[But you quickly realize that this is not the right solution.]

[On the one hand, it’s because you’re worried that the soldiers you send back won’t really do their best to help the people in the village.]

[On the other hand, the village of Domremy knows you and Jeanne very well.]

[If you don't handle it properly, your true relationship might be exposed on the spot. ]

[By contrast, if you really want to go back to Dongremi Village, only you two siblings can do it.]

[Of course, you also know that if you leave quietly like this, the French army will definitely fall into chaos. ]

[So you first claimed that Joan of Arc had received divine revelation and had to return to the village of Domremy where she once lived.]

[Until she returns, the troops must not act rashly.]

[This measure is indeed effective.]

【Your statement was soon supported by Charles VII.】

[He witnessed your private wedding, and in a sense, he is already a good friend of you and Jeanne. ]

[Not to mention that he already firmly believed that Jeanne was a messenger sent by the Lord, so he would certainly not stand against you at this moment.]

[After everything was arranged, you and Jeanne set out on the journey back to the village.]

It was winter, and cold winds were blowing across France.

A plain-looking horse-drawn carriage was slowly making ruts on the country road.

"Cough cough."

The girl's cough came from inside, causing the boy next to her to become anxious.

He spoke in a voice that was somewhat complaining, but also quite distressed and caring:

"Look, Jeanne, I told you you're still sick!"

"Yes, I'm sorry..."

Jeanne covered her mouth and apologized quietly.

That petite body would tremble from time to time due to the violent coughing, looking very pitiful, which made people feel pity for it.

Seeing his sister like this, no matter how angry Ian was, he calmed down in an instant.

"Oh, you..."

Ian sighed, then pulled up the curtains on both sides of the carriage.

He hoped that this way he could make his sister feel better.

He couldn't bear to see her suffer.

Not at all.

[In this somewhat dire situation, you drove your carriage to a small village. ]

[This is a village under the armed control of the English. Groups of English soldiers can be seen everywhere.]

【But you are not worried that your sister will be discovered by these English people. 】

[Because before leaving, you had already asked her to change out of her usually very conspicuous clothes and disguise herself to a certain extent.]

[Now she looks like just a relatively pretty country girl. ]

[In a sense, half of what you feared has become a fait accompli—she did become a country girl, but at least she got married.]

[But you remain cautious—you don’t want anything to happen to your sister.]

[But the actual situation is not much different from what we imagined. Not many people care about your coming. ]

[After all, in war, population movement is a very normal thing. ]

[There are naturally many people fleeing like you. 】

【You feel lucky for this - not being noticed is what you need most at this moment. 】

Although her physical condition was not very good, Joan of Arc's appetite was not affected.

Maybe even because of the bumpy ride, she seemed to want to eat more than usual.

Seeing his sister panting, Ian felt a little better.

At this moment, several English soldiers pushed open the door of the tavern and walked in.

They waved their hands:

"Boss lady, bring me a few bottles of wine as usual!"

"coming!"

Although he was not worried that these English soldiers would discover himself and Joan of Arc.

But out of caution to protect his sister, Ian still observed them secretly.

He wanted to make sure his sister wouldn't get hurt.

The two English soldiers probably didn't expect that someone was secretly watching their conversation at this time.

So after they took the wine from the proprietress, they started chatting casually.

"Hey, did you hear that?! It seems like a very powerful person has come up there!"

"A very powerful person?!"

"Yeah, she's said to be a very powerful magician... and she's a girl!"

"Is there such a thing?"

"Yeah, I heard that she plans to help us win this war in a special way... I don't know how she will do it."

"Why does he sound so unreliable to me... like a liar."

【The conversation between two English soldiers caught your attention.】

[You listened to their conversation more carefully, hoping to get more useful information from it.]

[However, it is a pity that those English soldiers seem to have only a vague understanding of the mysterious female magician. ]

【The topic between them quickly shifted to other things as the glasses clinked. 】

[You realize that the English may have acquired another strong foreign player.]

[This is obviously not good news for France. ]

[After all, Orleans's dragon-killing miracle is not so easy to replicate. 】

[If the English summon a bunch of dragons again, France will probably really be destroyed. ]

【Thinking of this, you can't help but feel a little worried. 】
