He actually wanted to summon Joan of Arc.
It was clear that Joan of Arc had responded to the call of the Holy Grail and appeared as a judge, but the man in front of her actually said that she would use Richard the Lion-Hearted's Noble Phantasm to summon herself. It was obvious that her relationship with the other party was not good enough to respond to the call.
Yes, there is a fundamental difference between the way Lionheart summons heroic spirits and the way the Master summons servants through the power of the Holy Grail in the Holy Grail War.
For example, the Master's summoning of the Servant is based on the similarity between the two. If there is no similarity between the two, then the Holy Relic used by the heroic spirit during his lifetime is needed.
The way Richard the Lion-Hearted's second Noble Phantasm summons servants is mutual karma, that is, the bond between him and the corresponding servant during his lifetime. The heroic spirits related to Richard the Lion-Hearted are willing to lend their power to each other.
Richard the Lionheart and William used magic to make relevant adjustments to the concept of this Noble Phantasm, but they did not go beyond this scope. Whether it was Giorgios, St. Edward, or even Margaret and Patrick, they were all related to the British Empire. Associated with the patron saint.
St. Edward is the patron saint of the British royal family, Giorgios is the patron saint of England, St. Margaret is one of the patron saints of Scotland, and Patrick is the patron saint of Ireland. If summoned in the identity and concept of the King of England, Then the saints on the Throne of Heroes have no way to refuse.
This concept essentially belongs to a special sacred relic, and the root cause is its special cause and condition.
Joan of Arc watched all this. She did not stop it and had no way to stop it. Although she did not think that the body on the Heroic Soul Seat would respond to the call of King Richard the Lionheart and lend her power to the other party to fight with her in the ring. Maybe she was also interested in this. The matter is quite curious.
She believed that even if she on the Throne of Heroes responded to Richard the Lionheart's call, she might not be on his side.
"Are you sure you want to summon Joan of Arc? You two really have such a bond and karma."
King Richard the Lionheart questioned William, holding the same holy flag that Joan of Arc waved in his hand, showing hesitation.
Although his second Noble Phantasm can shake people, the people it shakes come to help voluntarily. Summoning saints also uses the concept of saints to protect Britain.
Under the royal power system, the king is not only the country, so protecting the king is also protecting the country. It is through this concept that saints are summoned.
If William really knows Joan of Arc and has the corresponding bond, then it is not unreasonable to summon a new Joan of Arc to stand on his side, but if the other party defectes after being summoned on the spot, then he can only be dumbfounded.
William may know the Joan of Arc in his own world, but the Joan of Arc in another world has not been recorded by the Seat of Heroes.
If William wants to summon William the Conqueror, then the one summoned is William the Conqueror in the world of Xingyue, not William in his own fairy tale world.
"The flag of Joan of Arc is just an appearance. The real holy relic is the spirit contained in Joan of Arc, her belief. To put it bluntly, this flag is just a piece of rag, embroidered with patterns. It is not a sacred existence in itself. It can only be seen when people When our beliefs come together here, this flag truly gains strength and meaning."
William shook his head and said. "Joan Arc once said to me that she was more afraid of the severance of faith than fear of death. After the Hundred Years' War between England and France, reunification of the motherland and the establishment of a world where people can live in peace, both England and France, flowed from each other. There was too much blood. In order to achieve this goal, she has lived from birth to now. Even if she dies, she hopes that this belief and spirit can continue and become a force that drives the world forward.
This is the meaning of Joan of Arc's soul. If this belief cannot be continued, this will be the demise of Joan of Arc.
Joan of Arc once said to me that she hopes that I can implement my beliefs no matter what. Similarly, if I can carry his beliefs on the journey, it will be equivalent to Joan of Arc always being by my side. If Joan of Arc does not have the right to If I lie, then as long as I hold on to this belief, Jeanne will definitely answer my call. "
After William finished speaking, Jeanne was stunned. She just listened to what the other party said. She was a little dazed that the Master from another world and Jeanne from another world had such a bond.
Just through the description of words, Joan of Arc can also feel the firm belief and will of her other self. That belief goes beyond the simple saint of saving the country. She not only wants to save France, but also wants to save England, and even I hope my faith can be passed down and save more people.
"The summoned Joan of Arc has defected, and I don't care about that!"
Richard the Lionheart smiled when he felt the belief conveyed by William. For him, with what William said, it didn't matter even if he summoned "Joan of Arc" and the other party rebelled.
There are always many precious and valuable things in this world, and their meaning goes beyond the Holy Grail.
Joan of Arc is just an ordinary girl. She thinks that she is not a "saint" and feels ashamed of the title of "saint" given by the world. If there had not been the Hundred Years' War between Britain and France, if there had not been the revelation of the Archangel Michael, , she would not leave her hometown of Orleans, let alone embark on a journey to become the saint she later became.
Obviously William was not lying, because she felt another world, another Joan of Arc, from that holy flag, which was the belief she held.
However, she still had questions, "Why do you have to do this?"
Joan of Arc was hesitant. She didn't understand why she had to do this. In fact, this question was like her denial of her title of saint.
Her hands were already stained with blood, waving the holy flag, watching her English soldiers die on the battlefield, and watching French soldiers die on the battlefield because of her orders.
"Why, you ask me why? A father who lived in the mountains found that his child was sick. He carried his child on his shoulders and traveled across the mountains and ridges to seek medical treatment. His feet were worn out in order to collect money for his child. Medical expenses, working on the construction site and carrying rocks, his body is covered with bloodstains, why do you think he is?" William did not directly answer Joan of Arc's question, but asked a question of his own.
"Of course for the sake of my children." Joan replied.
"So, is the father weighing the pros and cons when he makes this move? If he doesn't have his own children, he won't be able to pass on his family, and his property will be inherited by unrelated outsiders, and he won't have descendants to support him in his old age?"
"how come?"
"Yes, that's it. Just like a father protecting his child, he must save him no matter what. There is no reason or weighing the pros and cons. He just does it because he wants to do it. It is a father's instinct because he wants to protect him. , so protect. As a king, it is natural and natural to protect your country and people, just like Joan of Arc standing up for her compatriots. There is no need to care about whether it is worth it, just whether you are willing or not, and be aware of it. Being willing to sacrifice for something, this is Joan of Arc. The essence of deciding justice and injustice, good and bad is goodness. Because of the good intentions in my heart, I always seek the optimal solution in the conflicts with myself, others and the world. It's painful to make the best choice for both parties, and Joan of Arc has been suffering from this pain, always thinking that she can do better and avoid more sacrifices and bloodshed."
When William said this, the second Noble Phantasm of Richard the Lion-Hearted King was almost activated. The Holy Flag was emitting light, and the magic power from the Magic Holy Grail flowed to King Richard the Lion-Hearted through William, and finally led to the invisible and intangible... A heroic spirit that has not yet been given a physical form.
"The battlefield is always accompanied by destruction. It will only bring suffering and sadness to the world. The joy of life should not be realized in war. Therefore, I deny the Holy Grail War, and I also deny you as the judge. If you don't give up your Responsibility, you are just a villain who works for the tiger, and now I want to serve the new Joan of Arc to replace you with my physical body."
Joan of Arc's body shook for a while, and she looked at William with disbelief. The other party first explained her intention, then took out another Holy Flag of Joan of Arc, showing her lofty belief, and finally reasoned with herself and denied it. She even felt that she was wrong.
"I am the queen of Zhangxi, Lakshmi Bhai. This time I appear with the protection of the goddess. As long as it is to resist the unreasonable invasion, I am willing to give my full assistance. Master."
The voice of a cheerful girl appeared, a girl with the same appearance and the same ornaments as Joan of Arc. Her voice, temperament and clothing were all so similar that she was like a sibling.
France has its own Joan of Arc. In fact, saints with the spirit of Joan of Arc exist in every country.
Hua Mulan in the East and Yae Yamamoto in Japan have women like Joan of Arc in the history of every country. However, although Joan of Arc is the most famous, it does not mean that other countries have the spirit of "Joan of Arc". The saint is inferior in comparison.
Queen Zhangxi, this is the "Joan of Arc" belonging to India in history.
"Richard the Lionheart. Quickly use the emperor's privileges and the emperor's new clothes to recognize Lakshmi Bhai in this world as "Joan of Arc" and expel Ruler Joan of Arc from the sainthood."
William issued an order to King Richard the Lion-Hearted, just as India clamored politically to expel the British Empire from the Commonwealth and at the same time inherit the British five permanent seats in the United Nations.
Use the emperor's privilege to expel Ruler Joan from the "Joan of Arc" birthplace and make Lakshmi Bhai the "true Joan of Arc". This is the role of the emperor's privilege.
Referring to deer as horses, confusing right and wrong. If the emperor says that crows are white, then the world will agree that they are white.
This is the world's willful consideration for the emperor's servants, just like Wu Zetian ordered the flowers to bloom in the harsh winter, and the world readily agreed.
The King of England is also the King of the United Kingdom, the Head of the British Empire and the Commonwealth, and holds the title of Emperor of India.
This is why Richard the Lionheart’s imperial privileges are called the Emperor’s New Clothes.
Theoretically, the British king could only be called the Emperor of India when he owned India. After losing India, he could no longer be called the Emperor.
However, the title of Indian Emperor did not actually come from the Mughal Empire in India, but was crowned by the British Parliament.
In the British Empire system, the title of king was higher than that of emperor.
In today's Britain, which has lost India, even Richard the Lionheart cannot declare himself the emperor of India through the Sword in the Stone, but he can use the title of king to pretend to be the emperor.
The power of the Parliament comes from the King, whose Parliament crowns the Emperor.
Yes, this is the Indian Emperor.
Even without India, the king could still crown himself emperor through parliament.
