So the question is, how could Bluebeard, who has frog eyes, mistake Saber for Joan of Arc?

Do the two look alike?

Or is Bluebeard blind like the ancient Britons?

If Saber really looks like Jeanne d'Arc, are they related?

Countless questions lingered in the minds of the viewers watching the live stream, but one thing was certain: King Arthur was the most confused one right now.

At this moment, the Knight King Artoria, who was at the Einzbern residence, was completely bewildered. Caster really had such big eyes for nothing; what connection could a Briton have with Joan of Arc from France?

Combined with Bluebeard's fanatical obsession, it was truly terrifying, especially since the target was herself. This instantly made Artoria feel uneasy.

While it's normal for King Arthur to be liked and revered—the Knights of the Round Table all held her in high esteem, and King Arthur was used to it—if the other party were a deranged serial killer, it would be pure horror movie territory. In any case, she was extremely uncomfortable right now.

Before King Arthur could make any statement, the Knights of the Round Table went berserk.

Lancelot: "Damn it, why did I have to appear as a Berserker? Otherwise, I would have made this person feel the taste of my sword."

Gawain: "Lord Lancelot, it's not just you, my Cyclic Victory Sword is also itching to unleash its power."

Tristan: "Ah, to face the king with such disrespect, how sad, so sad that I want to enter him and shatter him to pieces."

Mordred: "Hey—what do you mean by comparing Father to that country bumpkin? What right does a woman from the countryside who relies on luck have to be compared to Father?"

Familiar names appeared one by one on the screen, and the appearance of all the Knights of the Round Table was astonishing. It was especially unbelievable to see even a filial son like Mordred speaking up for King Arthur.

However, the light screen projections paid no heed to any of that; the story continued—

...First turnaround 2555953 Lingling

"Huh? Joan of Arc—Gilles, I mean...uh, is it possible that you've mistaken me for someone else?"

When Gilles de Rais uttered the word "Saint," the woman hidden in the shadows was startled, thinking that Joan of Arc, whom she longed for, had finally appeared.

Unexpectedly, what came into view was Saber King Arthur. Okay, she admitted that King Arthur's face did look a lot like Joan of Arc, but she still wanted to gouge out her friend's eyes so he could see how he could mistake the King Arthur of Britain for Joan of Arc.

The mad Gilles de Rais did not have the slightest doubt. If it were an ordinary person like Jeanne d'Arc who questioned him in this way, he would have already lost his temper. Even Ryunosuke would probably have been scolded.

But beside him at this moment was Gilles de Rais's famous friend—Francesca, or rather...Francois. He was one of the few friends Gilles de Rais had after his fall from grace, and it was he who gave Gilles the scriptures of the City of Annihilation.

Unfortunately, he didn't know that François was the mastermind behind his downfall and one of the participants who led the saint to be burned at the stake.

At this moment, the light screen image moved the camera to the face of this 'young girl'.

Although her values ​​were shattered, the 'girl's' appearance was indeed stunning. She had white hair and purple eyes, was less than 1.6 meters tall, looked only 15 years old, and wore black and white gothic clothing with a floral umbrella.

If we disregard what she said, she might still be many people's dream girl. However, given her relationship with Gilles de Rais, the psychopathic killer, and her twisted personality, probably not many people would consider her their ideal type.

"No—I can't be mistaken, my saintess!! My Joan of Arc!! How could I possibly be mistaken—this divine posture is a manifestation of the saintess's power!!!"

Although it was unclear why Francesca could forget Joan of Arc's appearance, Gilles de Rais simply assumed that François hadn't seen Joan of Arc for too long. After all, hundreds of years had passed since Joan of Arc's time, and it was normal for a close friend to forget.

Centuries—in other words, Francesca, this seemingly fifteen-year-old loli girl, has existed for hundreds of years?

Chapter 44 Pleasure Crime Adds One More

The Hundred Years' War between England and France took place nearly a thousand years ago.

In other words, this young girl who claims to be Gilles de Rais's friend is nearly a thousand years old, old enough to be the ancestor of most people in the comments.

Eriri: "Really? This little girl, oh wait, this old lady has lived for that long?"

Conan: "Immortality? Such a thing actually exists."

Bishop of Destiny: "There are many ways to achieve immortality, so there's nothing strange about it."

L: "Bishop, it seems your status is quite extraordinary. Is immortality so insignificant to you?"

Bishop of Destiny: "Hehe, that's not it. I only chose to live by such means to achieve a certain purpose. After I achieve my purpose, I will naturally die."

In the comments, L didn't continue speaking. To be honest, he didn't believe Otto's statement. People are selfish, and the temptation of immortality is too terrifying. Even if he chose immortality for a certain purpose, he might have lost his true self by now.

However, this is not the time to focus on immortality. An old witch who has lived for nearly a thousand years and has a twisted personality is someone who must be taken seriously no matter what. No one knows what methods and abilities she has.

Aki Tomoya: "It's a sure thing! Absolutely a sure thing!! In anime, this person would definitely be the mastermind behind everything, and the strongest one at that. This isn't just walking around, it's flying around – he could definitely kick Gilgamesh, punch King Arthur, and instantly kill Alicia."

Kasumigaoka Utaha: "You...you really are something else, you've managed to provoke some of the most active people in the comments."

Qianjie: "Whether he flies sideways or walks sideways, if he wants to defeat Alicia, he'd better at least show some real strength. Kid, you're pretty confident. If he's not as strong as you say, I'll definitely burn you to ashes—"

Upon seeing Aki Tomoya's words, Senju, the Moth of the previous civilization, was inexplicably enraged. Although he was usually quite angry, how could he possibly kill Alicia instantly? In other words, he could even kill her instantly? Hmph—even Kevin couldn't do it, so what could a little minion do?

.........

[The screen image shows Princess Hengfei, oh no, Francesca is speechless. She descended as a Caster, so how can she be as irrational as a Berserker?]

However, upon closer examination, isn't it quite interesting to look at it this way?

Although it wasn't Joan of Arc, it was King Arthur of Britain, the legendary King of Knights, the Holy King—countless people are now looking up to her divine and heroic figure.

That valiant figure and strength, that sacred power must be incredibly powerful and fascinating—

Wouldn't it be interesting to let such a king degenerate into something as worthless as coal ash, not even pig feed?

And that woman who killed Gilles de Rais, although she didn't possess the divine power of King Arthur or Joan of Arc, exuded a repulsive aura from beginning to end—

The stench was so strong that it made people feel uncomfortable. Although it was only one glance, Francesca undoubtedly regarded Alicia as an enemy and wished she could make Alicia completely fall into depravity immediately.

The pleasure—it's so incredibly pleasurable—which of the two will succumb faster? Who will become pig feed first?

The more Francesca thought about it, the more excited she became, as if she had reached a climax. Her wicked thoughts and actions were even worse than those of the previous fake Caster's master, Ryunosuke Uryu.

However... to Francesca's surprise, even after she had completely fallen from grace and a thousand years had passed, her old friend Gilles de Rais was still able to bring her joy again.

"Oh dear, oh dear, yes, that's right, Jill, that person is the Saintess! I must have been mistaken before. That holy demeanor and ability, only the Saintess could possess that—"

Princess Yokohime excitedly jumped in front of Gilles de Rais, staring at his intelligent eyes with a look of delight. The two were very close, and Gilles de Rais had not expected Princess Yokohime's attitude to take such a sudden turn.

But he couldn't care less about that now, and he said frantically to himself, "Yes, that's right—to be able to participate in this Holy Grail War is the highest honor for me, Gilles de Rais—Joan of Arc, my saint—I'm coming to rescue you right away—"

Speaking wildly, Gilles de Rais ignored whether his injuries had healed or not and went to greet his saintess. Francesca smiled with pleasure, but just as she was about to move, she suddenly felt her body stiffen as a huge magical force pressed down on her.

Damn it, this is a warning—is that Caster hiding in the shadows still watching her? If she does anything that deviates from their plans, her body will probably be destroyed in an instant.

Yes, warning—she got a little carried away by something so exciting that she almost forgot that it was the mysterious Caster who saved her when she was nearly killed by that old bug.

Why am I so unlucky? I just wanted to come to Fuyuki City to see an old friend, but as soon as I arrived, I ran into a magician who uses insect magic. My body was almost ruined by him.

She was finally rescued by that mysterious Caster, only to find herself in a tiger's den, a real tiger's den. Without any prior preparation, she couldn't even defeat a magician like the Old Bug, but her immortality was enough to keep her alive.

But this Caster is different. He really has a way to kill himself, and with his magical skills, controlling himself would be a piece of cake. Unless the Book of the Annihilation City is currently in her hands, going up against that Caster would mean being reduced to ashes.

Having realized this, Hengfei Ji decisively chose to give up resisting. That Caster seemed to possess the highest level of clairvoyance, so her act of saving her was also within the scope of his observation.

Seriously—why does such an overpowered Servant appear in the Holy Grail War? He's only ever seen this level of magical skill in his masters' masters, but he's probably still in that tower, and given his personality, he's unlikely to come out.

Artoria and Solomon appeared in the same Holy Grail War, and he really managed to sit still...

The imprisoned Hengfei Princess thought indifferently—

Chapter 45 Kenneth got on board, Kenneth sent...

Light screen image bullet comments——

After Princess Yokohime and Gilles de Rais finished their conversation, everyone was momentarily at a loss as to how to process the information they had received.

First of all, it's certain that Francesca is an extremely wicked old witch who actually set her sights on King Arthur and Alicia. If it weren't for the screen separating them, she would probably have been hacked to pieces by now.

The Knights of the Round Table and the Thirteen Heroes of Fire will never let her go. Even if she is immortal, these people will chase her to the ends of the earth. If she dares to live, these dozens of people will kill her every time.

Don't you see that the current barrage comments are full of lines that wouldn't pass censorship if released to the public?

The others are one thing, since they don't have much experience in swearing, but at least the refined and easy-going Qian Jie among the Thirteen Heroes and Mordred, the 'filial son' among the Knights of the Round Table, are absolutely disgusting with their current remarks. You can feel their murderous rage even through the screen.

Of course, it wasn't just them; even Professor Mebius, who usually 'hated' Alicia the most, couldn't stand it and started ranting in the comments.

Möbius: "The ability to be immortal? I really want to put her on the operating table and study her 'properly'—I promise I'll get her off the operating table 'intact'."

Eden: "Kevin, if you have the chance to capture her, please bring her to Paradise—how dare she treat Ellie like that, I will make her know the wrath of the [Gold]—"

These comments are just the tip of the iceberg. The live chat is now in an uproar. In addition to the Thirteen Heroes and the Knights of the Round Table venting their anger at Francesca, there are also rational people analyzing the relationship between Francesca and King Solomon.

Just now, that Aki Midori was saying that Francesca could fly sideways, and now it's clear she really can fly sideways, since even when she's knocked away, she still flies sideways.

Let's not even talk about Solomon. He's the King of Magic, theoretically the strongest magician, with an unparalleled level of prestige. But you can't even beat an old bug? That's going too far. He's just a magician from the modern world, not even one of the top tiers. The old bug has put all his skill points into survival, and his offensive capabilities are far from the level of a top magician. You can't even beat him, yet you dare to fly around so arrogantly?

Of course, you can't blame Francesca for this. It's not like she said she could fly sideways. It was Aki Midori who was just making trouble in the comments and that led to this joke... But after this incident, Francesca's reputation as the "Flying Princess" is probably stuck.

.........

[The screen displays an image, and the camera returns to Einzbern Castle. The battle between Saber and Lancer continues, and inside the castle, the battle between the two Masters has reached a critical moment.]

Due to repeatedly using Time Control, Kiritsugu Emiya's heart rate was too fast, and his rapid blood circulation caused him to breathe heavily. He leaned against the wall, panting heavily, and his expression showed some pain.

However, the man's expression did not show any tension at all. He was very calm and composed, and his attitude revealed that he had already figured out Kenneth's fighting style and was confident of winning.

Then, Kiritsugu Emiya suddenly pulled out a weapon that looked like a pistol.

This pistol was completely different from the guns he had used before. It had an old-fashioned design, like a decorative gun, but gun enthusiasts recognized it at a glance as a modern firearm.

At the same time, Kiritsugu Emiya skillfully and swiftly loaded a specially made bullet into his gun, waiting for Kenneth's arrival.

At a corner, Kenneth caught up again, and at this moment, Kiritsugu Emiya used his inherent time control to rush out and shoot with his gun.

So, what people saw was Kiritsugu Emiya's decisive and swift attack.

At this moment, the bullet flew out of the chamber and swept towards Kenneth in slow motion.

People could clearly see that the Moon Spirit Essence Liquid had formed an automatic defense, just like before, easily blocking the bullet. Not to mention a bullet, the Moon Spirit Essence Liquid's powerful defense would be impenetrable even to a rocket launcher.

However, based on everyone's understanding of Kiritsugu Emiya, he would never do something so meaningless. In other words, he firmly believed that the bullet would be effective against the Moon Spirit Essence Liquid.

At that moment, the bullet came into contact with the Moon Spirit Essence Liquid. In slow motion, the image zoomed in on the bullet's interior, revealing the immense power it contained, shimmering with a dark red light in the microscopic world.

Then, the camera zoomed out again. Under the influence of the mysterious energy, the Moon Spirit Marrow Fluid's originally diamond-hard defense was instantly broken through, and a fist-sized hole was opened under the impact of the bullet, and the bullet also attacked Kenneth's chest.

At this moment, Kenneth's pupils were shrinking rapidly, and the slow motion was still maintained. Kenneth seemed to be able to see the trajectory of the bullet, but he had no way to dodge it. He could only watch the bullet getting closer to his chest.

At this moment, the camera locked onto Kenneth's left eye, the pupil reflecting the approaching bullet, and the camera moved towards Kenneth's pupil and soon passed through the pupil.

The camera zooms out again at this moment, and the bullet hits Kenneth's left chest.

In an instant, the power contained in the special bullet exploded. In an instant, from the special microscopic world, it was seen that there were many "lines" emitting energy in Kenneth's body, which transmitted huge amounts of energy.
