Chapter 1439: Shinobu and Jeanne (1/2)

Shinobu had a dream.

Shinobu dreamed that she had become an ordinary countryside girl, growing up carefree without worrying about anything. She had three older brothers and sisters. She would play hide and seek with them when they were working on the farm until her body was covered in mud.

Shinobu also had a mother. She also learned about the existence of Jesus from her and decided to pray to God every day as a Catholic.

”I hope that I can pray until I return to the embrace of the Lord.”

She said this to her mother.

The mother only stroked her head with a gentle smile and said, ”The Lord will hear your prayers.”

At that time, she was very happy, and of course, she didn't know whether the Lord heard her prayers or not.

However, one day, she heard the voice of the Lord.

She, Jeanne, heard the voice of the Lord.

”Humans why are you always fighting each other...”

The Lord sighed, and those sounds were heard into Jeanne's ears.

At that time, Jeanne was only seventeen years old so she understood the reason for the Lord's sigh was because the people were at war.

France and Britain were fighting against each other in the war which was known as the ”Hundred Year's War”.

The two countries have been fighting each other for decades in Jeanne's time.

It could be said this war was one of the longest wars in history since it happened for 116 years, 4 months, 3 weeks, and 4 days, in such a long war, how many people had died because of it?

Jeanne didn't know, and probably, the historian and most of the people in the world didn't know, but...

”The Lords knows....”

Even if the people didn't know, the Lord who was looking at this world knew that answer.

Therefore, the Lord would sigh, so at that moment, Jeanne decided.

”I want to stop this.”

Her intention wasn't to save the world, but because Jeanne heard the whisper from the Lord. Then because of that, she bid farewell to her family and left her hometown.

Jeanne was just a little girl from the countryside, she went through several twists and turned to liberate Orleans in central France, trapped in the war, and finally won the war.

Jeanne was a commander of the army when she was only 17 years old.

Those who didn't know the truth would only think of her as a mascot or symbol, however, the soldiers who followed her would refute this statement without hesitation, after all, during the war, Jeanne didn't stand on the rear, but joined the bloody fight on the front line while holding her flag.

Holding the flag during the war, Jeanne would stand and join the battle, and as long as she was there, France wouldn't be defeated, showing how big the people trust her.

Then Jeanne liberated Orleans and became the hero of France.

Jeanne also found Charles VII, returned to Reims triumphantly, and assisted him to become the King of France.

However, those people didn't know about Jeanne's distress.

”Ah, I have killed so many people...”

In order to stop the war, Jeanne stepped onto the battlefield.

In order to protect the people of France, Jeanne killed many generals of the enemy country.

With blood on her hands, Jeanne had never considered herself a saint.

”I am just a sinful person...

”One day, I will be punished...”

Then the punishment came soon.

”You witch!”

”You evil incarnation!”

”Give me back my family!”

”You must be executed!”

”You shouldn't live in this world!”

The cheers and praise surrounding Jeanne began to become curses and resentment.
