Chapter 1467: I am here (1/2)
Achilles knew the identity of Jeanne d'Arc since before the battle, Shirou had told everyone about Jeanne's identity, using the ”Revelation” skill, and the information that Shirou had collected over the years.
”The Ruler is Jeanne d'Arc.”
Amakusa Shirou Tokisada told everyone about this information.
Therefore, Achilles knew Jeanne d'Arc's true name, however, it was because of this that he found felt what had happened before made him confused.
”How can a trivial saintess hurt me?”
In the legend of Jeanne d'Arc, although there were parts that were somewhat related to God and angels, the saintess herself had no connection with God and she was born from an ordinary family that lived in a rural area.
Jeanne was an ordinary human, she fought on an ordinary battlefield, and the weapons that she used was a normal weapon that didn't really have a connection with any legends, myths, gods, etc.
In other words, it was impossible for Jeanne d'Arc to possess divinity, not that it was possible for her to possess a Noble Phantasm that capable of slaying god, even if she was the famous saintess in the world, the Ruler of the Holy Grail War, enjoyed various privileges, and her strength could even match the first-class servants on the heroic spirit, but it was absolutely impossible to hurt Achilles, who was immortal.
However, Achilles was injured because of Jeanne's attack and it reminded him of Karna's situation.
”Now that you mention it, even if Karna is an immortal hero, he was injured last time when he fought against the Ruler.”
Which meant that Jeanne had the means to ignore Achilles and Karna's defense and cause harm to the two of them.
Achilles's guess was correct.
Although Achiless's immortality was very strong, in the end, there was still a limit and Jeanne's strength was strong enough to ignore Achiless's immortality.
In other words, Achiless's immortality was useless in front of Jeanne.
Waving the holy flag within the explosion, Jeanne pushed away from the surrounding flames, and her figure reappeared in the air.
”Achilles, Atalanta.”
Jeanne looked directly at the two Greek heroes, and while calling each other by their real names, she also told them, ”Enough. I don't want to fight with the two of you.” She understood that Achilles and Atalanta weren't being subdued by Amakusa Shirou Tokisada nor were they pledged their loyalty to Shirou wholeheartedly, and it was because of the situation that they became Shirou's servants.
”I don't know whether Amakusa Shirou's wish can be realized or not.”
Jeanne's tone was very sincere and said, ”So please don't stop me and let me see with my own eyes what the saint from Japan is doing right now.”
Her words caused the eyes of both Achilles and Atalanta to change on the spot and fall into silence.
Their reaction proved Jeanne's guess was correct.
Neither Achilles nor Atalanta really thought that Amakusa Shirou Tokisada could help all mankind.
Achilles and Atalanta didn't trust Amakusa Shirou Tokisada that much, but they only chose to stand on the same side of Shirou.
Even Amakusa Shirou Tokisada's wish was something that was worthy of the support of every hero, his wish was impossible to achieve, and it was also the reason why both Achilles and Atalanta were hesitating when they heard Jeanne's words.
Unfortunately, their hesitation stopped.
”It's absolutely impossible, saint.”
A sultry and cold voice came from the throne in the hall.
*BOOOOOM!*
At the same time, under a muffled sound, a figure was blown into the air like the previous Achilles, and after rolling awkwardly on the ground several times, it stopped beside Jeanne.
”Fuck...”
Mordred held her chest and struggled to get up from the ground.
”Saber of Red!”
Jeanne was surprised when she saw Mordred's condition.
