Book 2: Chapter 6: Saint Jeanne d’Arc: “Impartial Jeanne”
After Chen Heng coordinated with the two Servants and cleaned up the wyverns and skeleton soldiers, the French soldiers immediately retreated into the fortress as though they saw something terrifying.
Chen Heng understood why. After all, Jeanne d’Arc (the golden-haired girl) was here. The soldiers that Jeanne d’Arc Alter had terrorized would flee back into the fortress.
Mash brought Jeanne d’Arc over to Chen Heng and Gudako.
“Mister Ruler, thank you for your help earlier.” After Mash arrived before Chen Heng and Gudako, Mash expressed her gratitude to Chen Heng.
“Hey! You are a Ruler too?” After hearing Mash’s words of gratitude, the first person who reacted was not Chen Heng but Jeanne d’Arc, whom Mash brought back.
“That’s right. I’m a Ruler too. Including you and me, there are three Rulers in this Singrity, Miss Jeanne d’Arc.” Chen Heng did not express any shock at Jeanne d’Arc’s question. He even kindly exined to her.
“Oh! This is the true Saint Jeanne d’Arc? This is our first time meeting. I’m Fujimaru Ritsuka, Chaldea’sst Master.”
“Chaldea is?”
“Miss Jeanne d’Arc does not know?” What Chen Heng said earlier had given Fujimaru Ritsuka the impression Chaldea was quite famous in this Singrity.
“I don’t.”
“This is normal. Not every Servant knows about Chaldea. Only those of a certain level, such as the divine-level Servants, those with a Holy Grail, or people with a special ability to see the future, would know about Chaldea. For example, I have the Absolute Precognition, though it is damaged.” Everyone might have misunderstood because Chen Heng mentioned Chaldea’s name when they first met. Actually, no one would know about Chaldea until they were of a certain level. Take the 1st Singrity, for example. This Singrity was a cakewalkpared to the bosses of theter Singrities. It was just that the evil dragon Fafnir was a little harder to deal with.
Theter the Singrities they went to, the more ridiculously powerful the enemies they would face. In the 7th Singrity, they would face Mother Goddess Tiamat.
“Ahaha! So, that is the case! Then, I will exin to Miss Jeanne d’Arc. Chaldea’s full name is Organization for the Preservation of Human Order, Finis Chaldea. It was formed to guarantee that human order does not get destroyed, an organization for preserving the existence of humans. This Singrity is the second Singrity that we have been to. A Singrity refers to…” Doctor Roman’s words broke the awkwardness.
“A Singrity? Describing it that way seems to make sense. As for saying that this Singrity has three Rulers? What does that mean?” Jeanne d’Arc quickly understood the concept of a Singrity. However, she paid more attention to the part about the three Rulers.
“You, me, and that evil Jeanne d’Arc, that is Jeanne d’Arc Alter, are all Rulers. That is to say, she might have already discovered us. As an aside, Jeanne d’Arc Alter has a Holy Grail, so she has many Servants under her.”
“Huh!” everyone eximed.
“Don’t be so shocked, alright? Even if they pursue, I can carry you guys away to escape. My mobility is top-notch.”
“I say, Mister Ruler, you should just say everything in one go.” Even the sweet-tempered Mash started feeling resentful.
“Alright, alright! Let’s find a ce to rest first. I don’t think these French soldiers will let us in.” Chen Heng nced at the French soldiers, who kept their guard up, frequently squinting at Jeanne d’Arc. Clearly, the option to enter the fortress to rest was already forfeit.
“Sorry, everyone cannot enter the fortress to rest because of me.” Upon hearing Chen Heng’s words, Jeanne d’Arc felt somewhat embarrassed.
“There’s no need to mind this. Follow me. I have a ce where you can rest. It is where I was staying before I met you.”
“Senpai, should we go?” Clearly, Mash let Fujimaru Ritsuka take the lead.
[TL Note: Senpai is Senior in Japanese, usually used for upperssmen or people older by a few years. It’s not for addressing someone of one generation above, like an uncle or aunt.]
“Let’s go, then.”
“Since we are going, let’s not walk. I’ll fly you over. Please don’t resist.”
“Fly! This is great! Come on! Come on! Come on! Hurry up!” Upon hearing that Chen Heng wanted to fly with them, Fujimaru Ritsuka felt very excited. After all, everyone dreamed of flying when they were young. Jeanne d’Arc and Mash had no objections.
Chen Heng used his ability to make the four fly. Actually, doing this was very easy for him.
“Hey! Hey! We’re really flying! Furthermore, we are flying rather fast! Most importantly, it feels like there is a windshield; I do not feel much wind!” Fujimaru Ritsuka turned very lively.
Ten minutester, Chen Heng carried the three to where he camped. They would have arrived in just a couple of minutes had he not slowed down because it was his first time making others fly.
“Alright, alright! We have arrived.”
“We arrived already? I have not flown enough yet.” It seemed that Fujimaru Ritsuka liked flying.
“Sempai, don’t cause any trouble for Mister Ruler.”
“Alright, then.”
“There’s no need to feel sad over stopping. I can just make you fly when we need to travel again. There are more opportunities in the future.”
“Oh, thank you, Ruler.”
“You are wee. Then, you should get to know each other better. At the same time, we can exchange information. I’ll pitch the tents first. It is almost dusk, so let’s just camp here.” Chen Heng took the initiative to pitch the tents.
“Ah! We have tents? Although I want to help Mister Ruler pitch the tents, we do need to exchange information. I’ll have to trouble you then, Ruler.” Fujimaru Ritsuka was the only Master here. Although she wanted to help, she clearly had more important things to do.
Chen Heng took out a few tents before everyone’s astonished gaze, then used his ability to make these tents pitch themselves. Honestly speaking, his attraction ability made various aspects of his life more convenient.
Then, he took out various cutlery and cooking utensils from his spatial storage before starting outdoor cooking. There was even a generator among the things he took out; that was for cooking rice. He had five rice cookers with him to ensure he could satisfy the Servants’ appetite. However, he only took two out this time.
Before Chen Heng arrived, he had bought plenty of camping equipment and ingredients. Although he had fasting pills in his spatial storage, he preferred to eat the food he cooked.
