Their commission was suspicious.

Chapter 1027 The Herrscher of Knowledge is on Fire

"Why does this tea, brewed with the water of the River of Time, taste so...indescribable?" Chen Luo's expression was somewhat complicated after tasting the tea that Judah's Oath had placed in front of him before he went to the Doll World to find that maid outfit.

Just now, Amadeus, who had signed a contract with Chen Luo, appeared at the bar, and at his request, Chen Luo took him directly to reunite with Mary... in the world of dolls.

"How is it?" Kaguya Houraisan was very curious about this.

After all, it's tea brewed by the river of time.

Kaguya Houraisan has now become a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl—no, she should be described as a legal loli.

"It's... drinkable, but not particularly delicious. However, it has a long aftertaste. By the way, the tea seems to have really brewed properly," Chen Luo nodded.

"I asked you to describe the effects of the River of Time on you, not how it tastes," Kaguya Houraisan said.

"Oh, that? I didn't feel anything..." Chen Luo shook his head.

"Are you saying you're still not going to save Joan of Arc? Or am I wrong, and you're not planning to save Joan of Arc anymore?" the Herrscher of Knowledge asked curiously from the side.

The Herrscher of Knowledge has neither a good nor a bad feeling towards Jeanne d'Arc Alter, but if she put herself in Chen Luo's shoes, she would feel quite heartbroken to lose such a powerful Servant that she had finally obtained.

"Don't rush, wait until she's completely dead," Chen Luo said.

[Ding! Mission complete]

"Oh, he's dead." Chen Luo nodded after hearing this reminder.

Chen Luo wasn't cursing anyone; he was simply stating the facts. Jeanne d'Arc Alter wanted to die and even issued a quest. What could Chen Luo do?

Chen Luo had no choice but to respect Jeanne d'Arc's opinion.

Entrusting others is not everything in life, but it is a large part of it.

By waiting a little longer, you'll gain an extra 200 Primogems, right?

Despite having only met recently, and with her 44 points of affection, Jeanne d'Arc Alter is now discounted to 6.1%.

Of course, the actual favorability rating is currently only around 34.

They haven't even reached the friend route with 40 affection points or the best friend route with 60 affection points yet.

"So what should we do now? Revive her directly with the Golden Command Seal? But that's across worlds, is it even possible?" The Herrscher of Knowledge was quite familiar with Chen Luo's Golden Command Seal.

Chen Luo once used the Golden Command Seal on Merlin dozens of times in front of the Herrscher of Knowledge.

"It's impossible. The Golden Command Seal isn't omnipotent; how could it possibly allow for resurrection across worlds?" Chen Luo shook his head.

"Is that using a contract of servitude?"

"That won't work either. It might have worked when Joan of Arc was still alive, but she's completely dead now."

"Resurrection spell?"

"Resurrection spells cannot be cast at long distances."

"That……"

"Alright, stop guessing. If you keep guessing, you'll guess right. If you do, I'll lose face. It's the aura of the source." Seeing that the Herrscher of Knowledge was getting closer and closer to the answer, Chen Luo panicked and directly revealed the answer.

"???"

Something's wrong with you.

What do you mean by saying you lost face because I guessed right?

"Yes, people who are truly dead should be brought back to life..."

"Wait a minute, tell me properly what you mean by losing face because I guessed right. I think this matter is very important..."

"Hmm, the river water tastes quite unique at this time of year. Would you like a cup?" Chen Luo raised his cup to the Herrscher of Knowledge.

"Don't try to change the subject..."

"Xiao Shi, I like you..."

"what?"

"Just kidding."

"Chen! Luo!"

"Yes, the last sentence was also a joke."

"what?"

The CPU of the Herrscher of Knowledge is burning out. Wait, what's going on here?

Get it!

Seeing the Herrscher of Knowledge counting on his fingers, Chen Luo opened door number 2 of the bar.

The good news is that the Herrscher of Knowledge has been fooled for now; the bad news is that the Herrscher of Knowledge might wake up soon. But it's not a big problem; there's enough time.

"Huh? Brother Chen Luo?" After Chen Luo opened the door of Bar No. 2, before he could do anything, a figure suddenly appeared at the bar entrance.

"Oh, it's Sakura." Chen Luo greeted her.

Chen Luo opened the door of the bar located at the Matou residence, which is why he saw Sakura now.

"Brother, are you coming over for a visit?"

"No, I'm just borrowing the gate for a moment. By the way, Sakura, what about your magic homework for today..."

"Goodbye, brother." After hearing those four words from Chen Luo, Xiaoying waved to him, then turned and left.

Sakura really likes Chen Luo, her older brother, because he's been very kind to her in every way, as long as homework isn't mentioned.

"Sakura has really become much more cheerful, that's just her personality..."

She's being a little too cheerful.

If we nurture it a little longer, we might be able to gain a little devilish offspring.

"You managed to scare the kid away with just one sentence. You're something else. But brother, do you already have another sister outside?" Abby, who had just returned to the bar, stood in front of Chen Luo with her hands on her hips, looking a little angry.

Abby had no idea about this.

"What are you talking about? My sister has only ever had you. The rest are all..."

"The rest are all my younger sisters," said Kaguya Houraisan, who had transformed into a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl.

“!!!” Abby was greatly shocked.

"Shut up! What I meant was that the rest are just friends I've made. They only call me 'brother' because I'm older than them," Chen Luo said, annoyed and embarrassed.

Although Chen Luo himself is not very old, he has seen quite a few girls younger than himself before.

"Forget it, let's not talk about it. I should summon Jeanne Alter."

Chen Luo could feel that the contract between himself and Jeanne d'Arc Alter had been broken, and now only Chen Luo had a one-sided contract. However, as long as there were still traces, there was no problem.

The Golden Command Seal certainly cannot summon and revive a Servant whose Servant contract has been broken and who is not in the same world. This is beyond the capabilities of the Holy Grail, so the Golden Command Seal cannot do it either.

Just as the Holy Grail in Gilles de Rais's hands could not resurrect the real Joan of Arc.

"By Command Spell... Jeanne Alter, come back to work in your maid outfit!" The Command Spell sticker that Chen Luo had placed on his palm began to take effect, and the enormous magical power began to ripple through the bar.

However, resurrecting deceased Servants across parallel worlds exceeds the limits of the Gold Command Seals. It might still be possible if they were in the same world.

But if the Command Seals aren't enough, then we'll use Root to make up for it.

Chen Luo could clearly feel that just as the golden command was about to disappear and become completely ineffective, the Root Aura that Chen Luo had been attached to in the Root suddenly decreased by a few strands.

As the wisps of primordial energy deep within Chen Luo's soul disappeared, the parallel world that the golden command spell could not previously communicate with was instantly opened up, and the power of the golden command spell was also enhanced.

A flash of golden lightning streaked through the bar, startling Chen Luo so much that he instinctively covered Möbius's ears.

Don't wake them up again!

It's so cruel that the poor snake couldn't get a good night's sleep after staying up all night to do experiments!

Golden lightning flashed through the bar, followed by a fierce wind. Three golden rings appeared at the point where the lightning struck, creating an exceptionally grand scene.

As the three golden rings spun rapidly, the magic circle that suddenly appeared in the bar also began to light up. A card taller than a person appeared in the circle, but its specific color could not be seen due to the intense light.

After the halo dissipated, the golden card stood there quietly.

The gold card features a scale—the [Judge].

Just when Chen Luo thought Jeanne d'Arc Alter was finally about to appear, the golden card suddenly spun, revealing the image on its back: a disheveled prisoner bound in chains—[The Avenger].

"Why all the fancy tricks? Can't you just get the person out already?" Chen Luo complained.

This "Root Aura" is really good at creating buzz.

As if it had heard Chen Luo's urging, the life-sized card turned around again, revealing a spearman label. Then, the golden card was flipped open, and a person was kicked out.

This move caught Chen Luo off guard.

You can call Jeanne Alter an avenger or a judge, but why is there a spearman?

Jeanne d'Arc Alter was an Arbiter in the First Singularity, but her true class should actually be Avenger, so both are suitable. However, if she were a Lancer…

Could it be...?

"Merry Christmas! Master, Jeanne Alter Santa Lily Lancer solemnly responds to the summons and reports for duty!" A loli with long platinum blonde hair and holding a spear appeared in front of Chen Luo.

"...Playing dirty tricks, is that it?" Chen Luo couldn't help but look towards the door of Bar No. 2.

To be precise, it was looking towards the Type-Moon universe.

"What's wrong, Master?" Jeanne d'Arc asked with concern.

"No..." Chen Luo's expression was extremely complicated.

Chen Luo originally just wanted to summon Jeanne d'Arc Alter to dress him up in a maid outfit. After all, Jeanne d'Arc Alter was indeed a decent combatant... In short, why not have such a beautiful and capable Servant?

Chen Luo would not use his complete Spirit Origin to exchange for Servants in the Type-Moon world just for his own momentary interest.

If it were a Servant obtained through Spirit Origin Exchange, Chen Luo would prefer to exchange for Chen Gong rather than Jeanne d'Arc Alter.

Even a great hero is fine.

However, Chen Luo would not refuse a follower who was offered to him for free.

However, the root cause of this incident has really made him live a pretty ruthless life.

"Oh, reindeer, are you a little lost because you originally wanted to summon me as an adult, but accidentally summoned me as I am now?" After stepping out of the summoning circle, the young Joan of Arc, holding a Christmas spear and dressed in Christmas attire, walked up to Chen Luo.

"This... may hurt your feelings, but it truly is. I'm sorry."

"Sad? No, Master, after all, you wanted to save me, so what's there to apologize for? Sigh, I really don't understand my grown-up self. That self-destructive impulse is just too obvious. Master, you must have noticed it too, right? Before sending my future self to the First Special Point." Young Jeanne d'Arc said after finding a seat.

"I did see that..." Chen Luo nodded.

After all, both the raw gems and the favorability points given were only 4...

The raw stone is 444, and the favorability is 44. Chen Luo doesn't believe that this has no special meaning.

“You’re not a mature master to spoil me, Monster, so much as I’ve grown up,” Jeanne d’Arc’s younger self criticized.

"Wow, am I being criticized? Do you even know who the master is?"

"But the most important thing right now is to summon the grown-up you, after all, I promised to wear a maid outfit when we meet again... I've even prepared the maid outfit." Chen Luo said to young Jeanne d'Arc.

"Oh, if you want to revive me after I grew up using the same method, then you don't need to try it, Master."

"Ugh?"

"Master, you could see what happened during the summoning, right?"

"I saw it."

"It's probably because, Master, the command you used when you activated the Golden Command Seal was too broad. It wasn't meant to summon the Dragon Witch, but rather to summon Jeanne Alter, resulting in both Jeannes being summoned..."

"This can actually be done?" Chen Luo was astonished.

No way, one golden command seal can revive two Servants, no, it can summon two Servants?

The effect of this Root Aura is truly unexpected! Isn't it more powerful than the Holy Grail?

But... what about me, Joan of Arc? What about my Joan of Arc, who is so great?

“I am a spearman, I grew up to be an avenger, and the real me is the Arbiter, but the real me is not Jeanne d'Arc Alter, so I was not summoned…” Young Jeanne d'Arc said, counting on her fingers.

If Chen Luo had said he wanted to summon Jeanne d'Arc back then, he might actually be able to summon three Jeanne d'Arcs now, but if he said he wanted to summon Jeanne d'Arc Alter, there are only two now.
