As a ruler with "Servant Radar", Jeanne sensed the existence of Black Assassin earlier than anyone else, but she didn't know Black Assassin's intentions, so she didn't say it out loud, which was in line with the agreement between her and Artoria.
Unexpectedly, the assassin kept moving and was getting closer and closer to the room.
What she didn't expect was that just as she was about to remind him, Jack jumped up, said "Dad is here", then opened the door and rushed towards the man she had already met once.
Jeanne was stunned - Black Assassin is Little Jack's "father"? But Artoria said that Little Jack was summoned by her Master, which means he is Artoria's Master? Artoria's next greeting also proved this point.
Before Shinji appeared, Jeanne had imagined more than once what kind of person Altria's Master would be. But she never expected that it would be someone she knew, and a Servant.
"You are the Master of Altria?"
Jeanne stood up from her seat, her sky-blue eyes fixed on Shinji. She saw him curl his lips in displeasure and mutter something.
"You didn't even respond. I was trying to act like a teacher, but you didn't even give me a chance. Ah, you're right. Although it's a little hard to believe, I am indeed Altria's Master. There shouldn't be any rule in the Holy Grail War that says a Servant can't be a Master, right?"
Shinji said as he pulled up his sleeves and untied the bandage on his left arm, revealing three red marks hidden in it, which were the greatest proof and authority of the Master.
Seeing these three command seals, Jeanne completely confirmed Shinji's identity.
"There is indeed no such rule. There is no problem with your Master status."
"That's good." Shinji was waiting for Jeanne to say this, "I heard from Artoria that you wanted to see me?"
"Yes."
"Why? You don't want me to continue teaching you math, do you?"
Jeanne shook her head: "No, I didn't know you were Altria's Master, so... However, if you have time later, I do have some math questions to ask you."
"Since you love learning so much, I would naturally be happy to continue being your teacher." Shinji agreed with a smile.
Lingxia, who was watching from the sidelines, was obviously surprised—how could Joan of Arc love studying so much? Seeing the unknown side of these legendary heroes again, the Holy Grail War was really getting more and more interesting.
Liu Dao Lingxia's spirit is different from that of ordinary people. She can't feel any pleasure from the life of ordinary people, but just lives mechanically and instinctively. This is not only because she has not met anyone who treats her sincerely, but also because her seemingly normal outlook hides unknown distortions.
This distortion is gradually awakening with the arrival of Jack and Altria and the progress of the Holy Grail War. Now Reika is not only participating in the Holy Grail War for the people she cares about, she has found fun in the Holy Grail War, and she will not leave even if Shinji drives her away - I have finally found a less boring life, how can I leave
There is a kind of people who are born with extraordinary genes. Many heroes are like this, and Lingxia is also like this. She is born to be suitable for the Holy Grail War.
What kind of interesting things will happen next? Lingxia, who was looking forward to it, held little Jack in her arms and sat on the sofa, looking at Shinji and Jeanne with a smile.
The young couple finished their small talk and sat down at the table to talk business. Artoria, who was sitting with them, was still fighting with the food, puffing her lips and mumbling a few words from time to time.
In such a harmonious and friendly atmosphere, the outcome of the negotiations will naturally not be too bad.
Because Altria only talked about her own uniqueness and did not reveal Shinji's information, Shinji had a lot of room to maneuver.
Considering that his real name had been exposed in front of Altria and Reika, Shinji did not continue to pretend to be an unknown assassin. And because of Yustisa's analysis, it was necessary to pull Jeannette onto the chariot, so Shinji almost did not hide anything and directly told his real name and origin.
Of course, Shinji wouldn't be so stupid as to not make any modifications, as that would undoubtedly result in him being judged as a violator and being sent off by the referee.
In Shinji's words, he has become the same kind as Jeanne, and was also chosen by the Holy Grail because of the problems in this Holy Grail War. The difference is that Jeanne is inhabited by humans and uses human bodies to move. Shinji's soul is extracted by the Holy Grail and mixed with the power of heroic spirits, and he moves according to his own will. As evidence, Shinji took out "Indra's Thunder", "Blue Cloud Sword", "Ishtar War Lance", "Goddess Scepter" and "Hades Cloak", five treasures from different civilizations that have no connection with each other. Little Jack, who sits quietly in Reika's arms, is also one of the evidences. She is Shinji's follower.
This statement confirmed a premonition in Jeanne's heart. She was not summoned to judge the red and black sides, but for a more important reason. But Jeanne did not completely believe Shinji's statement. With the "revelation" skill, she heard something wrong, but she didn't know where it was. After all, Shinji was not lying. Yustisa was the Holy Grail, and I was the man she chose, with a special mission. Is there anything wrong with that
Seeing that there was still a trace of vigilance in Jeanne's eyes, Shinji used his ultimate move - cheating.
This is a method that an honest, hardworking, and diligent student would never think of. The specific method is to use the contract with Yustisa to draw out the colorless magic of the Holy Grail.
Although it is only a tiny bit, it is the most powerful evidence - see, I have such pure Holy Grail magic, how could I not be the man chosen by the Holy Grail
Finally, Jeanne believed what Shinji said, but she still had doubts -
"Why didn't the Holy Grail tell me of your existence? It would be more efficient if we worked together."
"You are the referee, so you must act openly. I am the assassin, so I must act in secret. One in the open, one in the dark, double insurance. No matter which one gets into trouble, the other can continue to act. I had planned to wait until the middle or late stages of the Holy Grail War, when the Holy Grail was formed and the mastermind surfaced, before looking for you. I didn't expect you to meet Altria."
It was still the truth without lies, and Joan of Arc had no choice but to believe it.
"So that's how it is. What did you find?"
"No discovery is the best discovery. After my investigation, all the masters and servants of the black side have no violations or abnormalities. The problem must be with the red side. Karna's behavior on the night you went to Tulifas is the best evidence."
"But after that failure, they took no further action."
"Not taking action doesn't mean they don't want to take action. It could be that they don't have the opportunity, or something has happened that delayed them. We can try to find out what the Red Masters who haven't shown up yet are planning."
"How to test?"
"I have a plan—"
Shinji's eyes flashed and a meaningful smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
PS: I am the man chosen by the Holy Grail, and you are the woman chosen by the Holy Grail. We are a perfect match.
