It goes without saying that there is a difference between a formal contract and a temporary contract.
A temporary contract is just like its name. It is just a temporary contract. The contract between the two parties will be automatically terminated after completing the purpose of the mutual contract, whether they want it or not.
In the past, temporary contracts were mostly used between two parties who did not trust each other but had a common purpose, so they needed to cooperate.
After the contract is concluded, based only on this purpose, both parties enjoy the legitimacy and mandatory nature of the contract. However, after the purpose is achieved, the contract will be in direct contact and will not be left behind.
Under the current situation, the servants who have concluded a temporary contract with Luo Zhen will only maintain the contract with him until the moment the singularity is successfully repaired.
The master of Chaldea and the lone servant of the singularity only have the common purpose of repairing and laying the foundation for the singularity. Therefore, the temporary contract signed between the two parties will automatically maintain until the singularity is repaired. When the time comes, the contract will be automatically terminated, allowing the followers to return to the "seat" one by one to complete the mission they were summoned to.
On the other hand, when it comes to formal contracts, it's different.
A formal contract will only be terminated when the conditions do not allow it.
For example, in the ritual of the "Holy Grail War", the contract concluded between the Masters and the Servants will remain until the end of the ceremony. Even if the command spell is exhausted and there is no coercive power, the contract will continue to be maintained until it can be supported. After the contract ceremony is over and no more magic power is provided to the followers, the followers will return to the "seat".
And if the Master himself has a way to solve the magic problem, in fact, the contract can continue to be maintained until the servant is killed or eliminated.
If Luo Zhen and Jing Mian entered into a formal contract instead of a temporary contract, then even if this singularity is repaired, the contract between Luo Zhen and Jing Mian will not end.
Because the contract between the two is maintained by Chaldea's summoning system, the contract will not end unless Chaldea's summoning system has stopped supplying magic power or is no longer operating. If Luo Zhen himself still wants to maintain the contract, Actively providing magic power, Jing Ming will still maintain the state of reality as a follower of Luo Zhen.
In other words, once a formal contract is concluded, Jingjing will not only be limited to the servants met at this singularity, but will return to Chaldea with Luo Zhen.
So far, only Ma Xiu has signed a formal contract with Luo Zhen, while Atila has signed the highest-level absolute contract with Luo Zhen. Even Luo Zhen cannot cancel it. Both parties will live and die together unless Luo Zhen falls. Otherwise, Atila will always exist by Luo Zhen's side, which is a mystery many times higher than a formal contract.
Now, Jing An actually proposed to conclude a formal contract with herself, no wonder Luo Zhen was not surprised.
After all, Luo Zhen has gone through many singularities, and among them there are even servants with whom he has a very good relationship, such as Joan of Arc and Scathach. Even they did not take the initiative to conclude a formal contract with him, but followed Following the principle of a follower, they will exit after completing the mission they were called upon to do. They will not interfere with reality or the changes of the times. They will act as weapons and never cross the line. It can be seen from this that most of the followers are very self-conscious and do not interfere with the changes of the times. Will easily conclude formal contracts.
On the other hand, Jing Ming and I just met today, and they actually proposed a formal contract
"Are you serious?"
Luo Zhen's eyes changed slightly when he looked at Jing Ming.
Facing Luo Zhen's eyes, Jing Ming nodded without any hesitation.
"Yes, I want to continue to accompany Lord Luo Zhen and don't want to leave Lord Luo Zhen."
Jing Ming then spoke out what was in his heart.
Not for the sake of human reason, nor for the world, but only for Luo Zhen, Jing Ming made this decision.
This is Silent Hassan, a quiet and fanatical sense of devotion, and it is not something you talk about casually.
Luo Zhen also saw from Jing Ming's expression that she would never tolerate it.
This made Luo Zhen feel awkward.
Although there are some very rule-abiding followers among them, once they form a contract with a Master, they will protect him even if they risk their lives and obey all his orders, but that is basically based on morality, principles, ideas and actions. The reason for his style and so on is not that he had strong feelings for this Master as soon as he was summoned, and he was willing to do this for the sake of this relationship.
Of course, if there are such observant servants, there will also be unruly servants. Once summoned, they will kill the master without saying a word, and even torture the master for fun. Anti-heroic spirits like this are also Everything you need.
In Quiet's situation, if she was summoned, she would definitely try to see if the Master who summoned her would die if he touched her, right
If he hadn't died, Jing Ming would definitely protect this master at the risk of burning himself.
But if he dies, Jing Ming may feel lost or regretful, but he will never remember the other person in his heart, which is painful.
After all, he is the leader of the Assassination Order. He has countless dead souls in his hands. How can he care about insignificant lives
But Quiet's fanaticism came so suddenly and so violently. For her, this was a matter of course. But for Luo Zhen, he had just known her for less than a day, and he didn't know her yet, let alone what she was. What kind of Servant is he, but how can he not feel awkward when he gets such intense emotions from the other party
In a relationship, the overly active and excited person will naturally scare the other person.
Now, the same can be said for this situation.
then...
"You'd better not make such a hasty decision first." Luo Zhen smiled and said calmly: "Conclude a temporary contract first, and we'll talk about the formal contract later."
"Yes..." Although Jing Ming was a little regretful and a little frustrated, she didn't say anything and respected Luo Zhen's decision.
Anyway, Jing Ming has decided that the meaning of his appearance this time lies in this person.
If a formal contract is not concluded, then in the last battle at this singularity, it would be a good choice to sacrifice oneself for it and die on the battlefield, laying a solid step for Luo Zhen's success.
No matter how smart Luo Zhen is, he would never have imagined that Jing Ming could be so extreme and persistent.
"Zheng!"
With the flash of a contract circle, the contract between Luo Zhen and Jing Ming was successfully concluded.
"ah"
At the same time, Jing Ming let out a seductive cry like an intoxicant, which almost made Luo Zhen lose his strength.
But the silence can't help itself.
The surging magic power flowed into his body, causing Jing Ming's whole body to release magic power.
At this moment, Jing Ming's ability parameters were greatly improved.
"Um?"
At this time, Luo Zhen noticed a figure walking by not far away.
"Joan of Arc?"
The other party is none other than Jeanne d'Arc [Alter].
Seeing this, Luo Zhen said to Jing Ming who was immersed in the increase in strength.
"You get familiar with your new power, and I'll leave first."
After saying that, Luo Zhen chased Jeanne d'Arc [Alter] away.
"Lord Luo Zhen!"
Only then did Jing Ming react and wanted to catch up, but she remembered Luo Zhen's instructions, so she could only stop reluctantly and turn around to leave.
The new power, Quietness, really needs to be familiar with.
