Chapter 518:
"Huh, huh? I know, but we don't know what exactly is in the Atlas Court. And I heard that a mysterious person has already entered the Atlas Court. No matter what you look at, I'm relieved. Can't go down."
"Then just go to Lixiang."
"I do not want."
Although he knew from the words of El-Melloi II that Rika doesn't seem angry, Roman can be sure that as long as he appears in front of Rika, it will definitely be like a torch lit by gunpowder, and there will be a boom in the next moment. explode.
"By the way, what about Jeanne? I haven't seen her since this morning."
When I woke up in the morning, I found that I couldn't see Joan of Arc. I thought she was going to do something, but until now I can't see anyone. However, the flow of magic power can let Roman know that Joan of Arc is still in the camp, so Roman is not too worried.
"Joan of Arc has been busy with Lancelot in the morning. She doesn't seem to like taking care of these refugees."
"Of course, if they hadn't become heroic spirits, these people would have been enemies of Jeanne."
Religious wars or something is not a joke. If there is a real fight, the Saintess of France will probably become witches in the Middle East.
However, when in the East Village and West Village, Joan of Arc would still take the initiative to help the villagers there. After becoming a heroic spirit, the prejudice of the sect has already faded, and heroes like this kind of justice camp stand at a higher position to view the world.
"Forget it, don't think about it so much. Mona Lisa, I went to Lancelot to find out how the preparations are going now."
"Go, I'm staying here to help. These civilians can't go to the battlefield, I'm going to make some tools so they can protect themselves after we're gone."
Leaving the solemn knights, these civilians do not even have the ability to survive. The Middle East has completely collapsed, and the beasts that should not have appeared in this era are rampant. The solemn knights are everywhere, and the civilians who lack the strength to protect themselves may become the rations of the beasts, whether they are outside or at home.
This seems to be superfluous, after all, they are people of the wrong era. If the singularity is successfully repaired, everything in this era will be corrected, those who are protected will return to their original trajectory, the traces of Chaldea will disappear, and those who have been favored will have their memories erased.
If they fail, they fail utterly, and human history will suffer a devastating blow, and those who would have barely survived will die.
No matter what you do to these people, it is a thankless job, and you should focus your energy on preparing for the battle at this time.
However, this is Chaldea, an organization that exists to perpetuate human principles, not a ruthless mechanical mechanism.
So even Olga Marie, who was struggling, wouldn't stop her.
Roman went to find Lancelot. At this time, he had given up on going out. Next, he just had to wait for the old man in the mountains to lead the people of the mountains, and Lixiang to return from the Atlas Institute. At that time, it was time to attack the Holy City.
As a result, when he was not close, he had already seen Jeanne waiting in the distance. Roman didn't know if Joan of Arc was waiting for him, but this intuition did not fade away, and the fact was that Joan of Arc didn't have any panic when she saw him appearing, just like she usually saw the staff of Chaldea. Same.
Then, she took the initiative to walk over here, her eyes were not squinting, and Roman's figure was reflected in her azure blue eyes.
Roman paused for a moment, then walked over as well.
Joan of Arc gave Roman a different feeling than usual, which surprised him, but when he thought about the relationship between the two at this moment, he felt clear. This moment will come eventually, and no one can avoid it.
Roman gently pulled out a smile: "Good morning, Jeanne."
"..." Joan of Arc looked at Roman in silence, seeing that he was a little unnatural, and then said in a tone like going to the battlefield, "Roman, come with me, I have something important to tell you. This is very important, Because it's about our future relationship."
Roman nodded indifferently, then followed Jeanne to a farther place. It was the first time he saw Joan of Arc show such a strong and active side in front of him, and it seemed that it had been a night of deliberation. Roman knew what Joan wanted to say, but of course it wouldn't be to cut off his head in a place where no one else was there. This kind of **** thing should never have happened to Joan. It's time for people to establish relationships.
The feeling of a scumbag who throws away each other after playing has been lingering.
After confirming again and again that there is no third party around, Jeanne took a deep breath, not knowing whether she was encouraging herself or was already discouraged.
Roman waited quietly, giving Joan of Arc time to wait, but Joan of Arc, who had been ready for a night, did not spend much time on Roman.
Joan of Arc looked into Roman's eyes and said, "We're done, Roman."
"...?"
Roman looked at Joan with a blindfolded face. He wanted to ask her, did the two of them start?
He has never found out when the two started, but he can feel that the relationship between the two of them is ambiguous, maybe it has already begun in Jeanne's view. Could it be that he is used to this kind of scumbag...
The two had a disagreement on the issue of "start", but this disagreement did not affect the subsequent communication at all.
Joan of Arc, who had made a decision, showed a relieved smile, and the indecision had completely disappeared: "To be honest, I don't know when I started to be attracted to you. In retrospect, you are not my type. Maybe. It started when Rika pranked, maybe when I found out that you were 'Magic S', but there's no denying that I've been attracted to you, and I think you can feel it too. I know you well And Mona Lisa is the real couple, but there is always a fluke mentality, every time there will be the idea of 'maybe he will choose me in the end', but every time I don't have the courage to take a step forward, every time I used Rika's order as an excuse to approach you."
Although Joan of Arc's eyes were still looking at Roman, but the whole person has fallen into the memory, recalling all the things that he came to Chaldea, and every time he got along with Roman.
This memory may only be a memory in the future.
When she came back to her senses, Joan of Arc's gaze stayed on Roman's face, as if she was expecting his reaction again. However, Roman is still the same Roman, trying to make him who is used to enduring and has endured his whole life take the initiative, it is almost an idiot to talk in his sleep.
Section 819 Chapter 335 FirstKiss
Joan of Arc lowered her eyes slightly: "That's it, that's all I want to say... We, it's time to end. When I'm with you, there's a feeling of exhaustion. I don't know what you're thinking, and I don't know you What to do, I believe many people feel this way, except Mona Lisa. I think she can endure as much as you, that's because she's used to it. But I can't do it, I'm not Mona Lisa , maybe it's because I'm too serious, but I can't stand it anymore, because it's not like me at all. Looking back now, when I was with you, I wasn't mine anymore."
"…Sorry."
Roman's words made Joan of Arc lightly smile: "As expected, I knew it would be the case. From the time I made my decision, I had expected Roman's answer, because only you, Roman, has not changed. We know each other. It's not long, but I believe, whether it's you in the past or you now, even after that, Roman you will not change."
"..." Roman moved his lips, and the second "I'm sorry" was on his lips, but he couldn't say it anymore, maybe this apology was already expected by Jeanne.
He's used to it. He is used to apologizing. Because in his life, he has failed too many people, so many that he has to apologize in another life.
"You don't need to apologize, Roman, you're not wrong, neither am I, it's all a misunderstanding, it's an accident. It's not surprising that it started unexpectedly, unfolded unexpectedly, and turned into what it is now. It's better Say, it's fine now. So, we're done."
"…Well, we're done."
Roman weakly said irresponsible words.
But Joan of Arc is right, no one is wrong about this matter, it is an accident that it has come to this point. Roman's indecision on this matter, Joan of Arc's curiosity about this relationship, and the help of Lixiang and others, will become what it looks like at this moment.
- It's not a bad outcome to end like this.
Roman sighed, to be honest, this way of handling is actually good, or it should have been done earlier. However, it would be too hard for Roman to say it himself and make him reject women.
"Hey, Roman, can I ask you one thing?"
"Of course, you say it."
When the word "please" was uttered, Roman had no choice, and he had never been able to resist others' requests.
There was a relaxed smile on Joan of Arc's face, which was different from the restrained smile she used to face when facing Roman. At this moment, her face was pure and curious, and she was dodging like a little girl.
This is another moving charm.
"That, I'm actually curious about that..."
When she said these words, Joan of Arc could no longer look directly at Roman, her eyes dodged slightly, and her pink and white cheeks were also dyed red.
"that?"
"Just, it's that... kiss..."
Joan of Arc's last voice was too small to be heard, but Roman still heard the important word.
This is a very excessive requirement in some respects. Now that this relationship has ended, it should be more decisive. But Joan of Arc is obviously not the kind of decisive person. On the contrary, she is very emotional. Even before her death, she was still less than 20 years old. At that time, she was still a young girl full of romantic fantasies.
Maybe that's why...
Is this... a farewell ceremony?
Maybe this is too much, but Roman agreed, and he has no way to refuse others' requests.
He leaned over gently, slowly approaching Joan's face, watching Joan's face become more rosy. When the two felt each other's breath, their breathing became heavier and their heartbeats became more rapid. Joan's face was raised slightly, her eyes were tightly closed, her eyelashes were trembling nervously.
There is also Roman who is also trembling, but at this time, he must not retreat, and he should also draw a perfect end to this relationship.
In a trance, his lips had already felt a warm touch, because they were too nervous, Joan's lips seemed a little stiff.
Can't stop yet...
The tongue gently opened Joan's lips, and Joan, who instinctively wanted to resist, froze, but quickly gave up and let Roman take a hundred steps.
The purity of the Holy Virgin was taken away by Romain, and like a blank sheet of paper, Romain wrote his own symbol, gradually changing into his shape in his enthusiasm.
When the two separated contentedly, they both panted and looked at each other's hazy eyes, a new sprouting was born in their hearts, and an ambiguous enthusiasm entangled between them, but this enthusiasm disappeared after the body cooled down. gradually dispersed.
The dark eyes gradually dimmed, and Joan gently stroked the lips that still had a strange touch, and then showed a satisfied smile: "Is this feeling when you kiss? Although it's the first time, I can feel it. , Roman, your kiss is very skilled. From the beginning, I didn't have a chance."
"…"
"Goodbye, Roman, well, I wish you and Mona Lisa happiness."
Joan of Arc turned and left, her figure appeared more active and cheerful, not at all like a girl who had lost her love.
That's fine, isn't it? At least, everyone seems to be getting a good result, at least it looks good.
"You are still the same, and you are still so prosperous in terms of peach blossom luck." A voice as clear as lake water sounded, Lancelot's figure was approaching, and she had a strange smile on her face.
"You're still the same as before."
"Who said no? I am like this, and you haven't changed, so I recognized you at first sight." After removing the armor, Lancelot exuded the breath of a big sister, while watching Looking at Roman, he nodded, "It's just that in the blink of an eye, the women around you are replaced by new ones."
"Don't say such things."
Roman frantically wanted to cover Lancelot's mouth. Of course, his small moves could not succeed. He was destined to be unable to defeat Lancelot physically, but luckily there was no one around. If Lancelot's words spread out If you do, the character of "The Stupid Doctor Roman" will be completely destroyed.
In fact, he is also very clear that he is easy to provoke women, and his character of asking and taking anything is destined to bring good feelings to women, so he will let nature take its course and seldom make active choices at this time. To put it simply, knowing that this is not good, and just pretending to be stupid, will lead to the matter of Joan of Arc.
"Why are you here looking for me if you don't go to accompany your little lover at this time?"
"Mona Lisa is not a lover..."
The so-called "lover" is the kind of partner who can't be given official status, but this time he went out with the idea of getting married, at least that's what he decided not long ago.
"Forget it, you can say whatever you want about this kind of thing." Roman shook his head, not caring about Lancelot's ridicule.
Lancelot is one of the few women he maintains a normal relationship with, a confidante-like existence. She appeared by Roman's side a long time ago, and knew many of Roman's inhumane secrets, but she kept it secret all the time. Her help and understanding to Roman had greatly inspired Roman in the past. In particular, Lancelot took the initiative to come to him from another world, which moved him even more.
"I'm here to ask about something."
"Ask, you don't need to be polite to me. Since it's you, just ask."
"It's really reliable, Lancelot." So no matter how long it is, no matter what happens, Lancelot will always be the reliable big sister in Roman's mind, "I want to ask about Galahad things."
…
…
In the evening, the Lixiang team had already rushed over to Lancelot. In fact, they could have arrived earlier, but it became like this because of Matthew.
Matthew learned from Sherlock Holmes the true name of the heroic spirit that merged with her. She was the purest Knight of the Round Table in the legend, Galahad.
In fact, many people have already known about this result, at least Arturia knows it, Mordred knows it, Bedwell knows it, and even all the Knights of the Round Table who have seen Matthew at the Sixth Singularity know it. However, none of them said it, because since Galahad had merged with Matthew, it meant that he recognized Matthew.
His real name should be found by Matthew himself.
But Sherlock Holmes believes that this is no longer necessary. Matthew has already mastered Galahad's power, so finding Galahad's real name will come sooner or later, even if it is exposed at this time, it doesn't matter, it is better to save some unnecessary waste. time.
After learning her real name, Matthew was very happy, because she found that the Noble Phantasm had naturally progressed further. But not long after she was happy, she fell into a tangle. Or it was not her tangled, but Galahad who had merged with her, because she suddenly thought that she would soon meet Galahad's father, Lancelot. .
"Don't worry, Matthew, don't show such a tangled expression, I understand your feelings, but please believe me, these are not problems. It will be fine when you see Lancelot, then I want to say Something will come out naturally."
Realizing that Mash had such an expression, Rika patted Mash's shoulder in understanding. Because she is a real visitor, she can only see Roman for a few days every year, and she has been struggling with what to say when she sees Roman, but as soon as she met, she found out—
- He actually celebrated a birthday with a Bichi for another person? That **** didn't even prepare so hard for her birthday!
Lixiang, who was still thinking of comforting Matthew, suddenly became annoyed, even if Matthew is now hers, Roman, who "has another home in another place (Note 1), hiding from her own daughter". The act was a death sentence for her.
Li Xiang's comfort did not have much effect, and Matthew's face was still tangled: "I know what senior means, but it is too difficult to call a person who meets for the first time a 'father'."
In addition to Galahad Lingji's entanglement and Matthew's own entanglement, after hearing Rika's words, there was a new resistance.
- That's where Roman was there.
Thinking that Roman was there, thinking that he was going to call another person "Dad" by Roman's side, Matthew seemed to turn around and run now.
Thinking of this, Matthew's feet became heavier, and there was a feeling of being unable to move.
Sanzang's reaction to Matthew was completely incomprehensible: "Is there any problem? Actually, it's just a name. If it really doesn't work, just put it aside."
"No, Sanzang, this is not as simple as a name." David, a real person, thought very seriously, even more seriously than when facing Gaitia, "This is about morality and ethics. , even self-problems."
"Huh? Is it that serious? I'm sorry, because I was raised by the host. When I met my biological parents, I was already a monk, so I didn't know much about it."
"But I agree with Miss Sanzang on one point." David said to Matthew with a serious expression, "What do you think about yourself? If it's just a matter of Lingji and you can't agree with it, then tell the truth. All right. Tell Lancelot you're not his daughter and you won't call him 'Dad'. Give the title 'Dad' to whoever you really want."
"The one who is really, really willing..." Roman's face with a frivolous smile suddenly appeared in Matthew's mind, and he immediately felt shy. But remembering that under the encouragement of Lixiang, she had the courage to say that name to Roman, but was ruthlessly rejected by Roman, and Matthew suddenly became discouraged.
"嘁!" David, who noticed Matthew's change, also thought of this, and he had always been polite and rude, and then said viciously to Lixiang, "Lixiang, I have a Things have to be made clear to you."
"What's the matter?"
"I don't care what you heard at the Atlas Institute that made you so angry, but don't be impulsive when you see Dr. Roman, because you will need his strength next. Even if you get angry again, you should wait until you return. Chaldea will settle accounts in the fall, don’t say that you will break your legs, even if you break your hands, no one will stop you. As long as you give an order, I will guard the door to prevent others from entering the room to disturb you.”
Lixiang was stunned after hearing this, and then smiled and patted David on the shoulder: "Don't you see, David, you are a good person, hahahahahahaha!"
"Heh heh heh heh heh hehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!"
Chilling laughter circled the desolate wilderness.
