Use FGO to open the second dimension

To be honest, although Marie was looking at Joan of Arc as if she were a very delicate work of art, could you please reduce the blush on your face? If you look like this, you will easily be mistaken for a lesbian.

Just tell me, who wouldn't have any wild thoughts when being looked at by a beautiful woman like you with a blushing face?

I think Jeanne must be under a lot of pressure right now... Koizumi was speechless.

However, despite saying this, Koizumi also knew that Mary probably had both respect and a sense of guilt towards Jeanne.

that is because……

"What a beautiful person..." Looking carefully at Mary in front of them, even Mash and Joan of Arc couldn't help but sigh in their hearts.

Even though all the women present were very beautiful, they were still slightly inferior to Mary.

You have to know that Mary's beauty has become her own skill, and this charm value is no joke.

"Do you know me?" There was a hint of doubt in Joan of Arc's eyes. The other party seemed to be very familiar with her. Although Joan of Arc was world-famous, the other party knew her, but she didn't know the other party. Just based on this point, there was no way to continue the conversation.

"Yeah... Of course I know you. Of course I know you! Even though we never met in life, but..."

Before Mari could finish, Koizumi interrupted her.

"Okay, now is not the time to talk about this. You still have a companion who hasn't caught up yet. Let's meet him first."

Koizumi had deliberately slowed down just now to allow the musician to keep up. It shouldn't take long for them to rejoin him, so it's best not to just chat for now.

Hearing this, even though Mary felt a little dissatisfied, she still followed Koizumi's instructions and went to meet her partner first.

Afterwards, after meeting with the musician servant, Mary and the musician servant formally introduced themselves.

"I'm Marie Antoinette, and my job title is Rider!"

"As for what kind of person I am, I hope you will experience it for yourself with your own eyes and ears. Also, unfortunately, I don't know why I was summoned. I don't have a Master."

Speaking of this, Mary couldn't help but feel a little regretful. Not having a Master was indeed a bit disadvantageous.

"My name is Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. My situation is the same as hers."

After saying this, Mozart seemed to be lost in self-questioning and continued speaking.

"Why was I summoned? Ultimately, am I a hero? I have no real sense of that. I am indeed great, but I am just one of many artists... I do know a little bit of magic for the sake of music, but that's simply because I'm interested in the music played by demons."

Mozart! Koizumi's eyes suddenly widened. Koizumi knew this musical genius very well.

Marisa and Remlia said that they are not interested in music, they are more interested in fighting against strong people.

But then again, if I remember correctly, Mozart seemed to have had feelings for Queen Marie when he was young. However, in the end, Marie became the princess of Louis XVI. However, the two still did not forget each other. Similarly, they transformed this love into love for the country and love for music.

But then again, when he was young...was Mozart...a lolita complex?

"It's Queen Marie Antoinette and Mr. Mozart..." Matthew couldn't help but exclaimed.

Even Joan of Arc couldn't help but feel extremely surprised at this moment. Although Marie and she were not from the same generation, they were both heroic spirits of France, and they knew each other very well.

"My name is Mashu, and I'm a sub-Servant. I don't know the true name of the Servant I possess yet... I'm so sorry..."

Mashu adhered to her usual humble style, with a hint of uncertainty in her tone.

"My name is Fujimaru Ritsuka, Mashu's Master. Please give me your guidance..."

Ritsuka gave a simple smile and scratched his head with his hand.

"My name is Koizumi, and like Ritsuka, I'm also a Master. Behind me, Miss Remi, Marisa, Akame, Kurome, and Sero... except for Jeanne, they are all my Servants... Please guide me..."

It might seem a bit boastful, but this is Koizumi's usual tone.

Mari and Mozart didn't misunderstand Koizumi, but were surprised that Koizumi had contracted so many contracts alone.

Remlia and the others nodded silently without saying anything more.

They had no intention of making close friends with them. Although they said they were here to help, they actually wanted to stir up trouble, such as fighting or something, otherwise it would be too boring. Akame, Kurome, and Celyuu came mainly for Koizumi.

Now it was Jeanne's turn to introduce herself.

Chapter 272 The So-Called Sin

"Um...my name is..."

Before Joan of Arc could finish her words, Mary rushed up to her with an excited look on her face, and a deep blush appeared on her face again.

"It's Joan of Arc, right?... the saint who bravely fought to save France. She's one of the people I've always wanted to meet."

I have to admit, when Joan of Arc is mentioned, Marie becomes extremely excited, incredibly excited...

This is normal, as there are definitely many French people who admire Joan of Arc. After all, she is the saint who saved the country. Although some of their ideas may be incompatible with Koizumi's, Koizumi also admires this kind of people.

Jeanne d'Arc could choose not to hate the people who had passed away, but Koizumi couldn't. However, only such a person could be called a saint. This is the difference between a saint and an ordinary person, so Koizumi would not impose his own ideas on others.

But, it's unlikely that such a saintly girl could have a reverse side...

After all, it's really hard to imagine the reverse side of a saint...

Koizumi curled his lips, but didn't say much. He just watched the interaction between the two silently.

Joan of Arc couldn't help but shake her head, a deep blush appeared on her face, and she felt a little embarrassed.

"I'm not some saint..."

"Well... I think everyone knows what you think. But at least your way of survival is real. And we all know what the outcome will be. So everyone praises and admires your deeds and will never forget you. Joan of Arc, the name of the Miracle of Orleans." Marie said slowly with such an tolerant smile on her face.

"..." Joan of Arc couldn't help but fall silent. That was true. When Orleans was mentioned, one couldn't help but think of the Dragon Witch that was wreaking havoc. It was Joan of Arc who saved Orleans, but now it was Joan of Arc herself who destroyed Orleans. How could she not feel sad... The Saint of France turned into a ghost of revenge, which was really hard to laugh at.

"Although she was burned at the stake in the end, it led to the appearance of the Dragon Witch. It's Maria's bad habit to only see the good in others." As if reading Joan's thoughts, Mozart spoke first. "Isn't that right, Joan? Something is amiss in your life. Being called a 'Perfect Saint' has caused the inner hurt not to others, but to Joan herself."

Koizumi couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly, his eyes fixed on Mozart. This guy has a very high emotional intelligence...

Because Mary is too pure and a bit naive, she says many things with good intentions, but these kind words may inadvertently touch the wounds in others' hearts.

At this time, Mozart is needed to mediate, so it can be said that Mozart has a high emotional intelligence...

At first I thought that people with high IQs didn’t necessarily have high EQs, but now it seems different…

"Listen up, Maria. You're always praising others too much. It's important to reprimand or contradict them occasionally."

Mozart looked at Mary as if he was scolding her, but the gentleness in his eyes was obvious.

"This...this kind of thing, I know it without you, Amadeus! No, you nag about it every day, don't you?"

As if she was angry out of shame, Mary's cheeks puffed up slightly and she said this with great dissatisfaction.

"But if you want to, you can do it! So I think you should scold Jeanne d'Arc. Be more swift, more intense, and more pointed! Point out all the shortcomings you can think of!"

"That's impossible, Amadeus." Mary shook her head silently, a gentle smile on her face. "Although scum like you only have flaws, Joan of Arc has no flaws."

"You really do like Jeanne..." Koizumi couldn't help but sigh.

"It's more of a belief than a liking. And a hint of regret."

At this point, a trace of guilt emerged on Mary's face, and that guilt was undoubtedly towards Joan of Arc.

"...About a teaspoonful of apology. The guilt that the foolish royal family rightfully feels towards the Saint."

"...Marie Antoinette. Your words please me. But that is why I must be frank with you."

Jeanne said softly.

"I was no saint in my lifetime. I simply waved the flag for what I believed in, and as a result, my hands were stained with blood.

"...Of course, I have no regrets. Including my impeachment during the Inquisition and my death."

"But too much blood has been shed for this!"

"A country girl believed in her dream, but... until then, I had never even imagined how many lives would have to be sacrificed to realize that dream. Although I have no regrets, I have never been afraid of it either."

"...That is my deepest sin..."

"I'm called a saint only because of the consequences. I always feel it's a little wrong to call a mere little girl a saint."

Having said this, Joan of Arc did not continue. She just expressed her opinion on the title of saint. Moreover, she did not think that she was a so-called saint and she was not qualified to accept this title.

but--

"You're wrong, Jeanne..." Suddenly, Koizumi, who had remained silent, spoke up.

Suddenly, everyone turned their gazes to Gu Quan, with doubts flickering in their eyes.

Koizumi, who had been silent the entire time, suddenly spoke at this moment, surprising the others.

"Mr. Koizumi? What do you mean by that?" Jeanne's eyes flickered with doubt.

Of course, Jeanne asked this question out of pure curiosity; she didn't understand why Koizumi said that.

Koizumi must have his own reasons for saying this.

"It's simple. Although you caused many deaths, without you, the Anglo-French War would have resulted in even more deaths and broken families. You may have caused many deaths, but without you, even more would have died. Moreover, this girl pursued her dream and resolutely threw herself into the battlefield, simply for her love for her country. Such a girl deserves only the admiration of others."

"All this is because of your noble sacrifice for your country, which is why future generations have called you a saint. You can accept this evaluation of yourself, because without you, there would only be more bloodshed..."

Besides, who has caused more bloodshed than me?... Although I saved a world, I also destroyed a possibility... What's the difference between what I ended up doing and destroying a world...

Thinking of this, Koizumi couldn't help but let out a wry, self-deprecating smile.

Chapter 273 Silly and innocent Mary?

"This is where the spiritual vein is..."

After Mashu constructed the summoning circle, Koizumi couldn't help but look around carefully, his eyes gleaming with brilliance.

Because this is a spiritual vein, magic power gathers here, and therefore many monsters gather here. However, these monsters were instantly killed by Akame, Kurome, and Sero, and Mashu and the others didn't even have a chance to attack.

Remlia has no interest in these monsters, and the same goes for Marisa, because they are too weak.

After constructing the summoning circle, the material needs of Ritsuka and his group were finally guaranteed to a certain extent.

Meanwhile, on the way, Ritsuka and Koizumi explained the singularity to Mari and Mozart.

After arriving at the spiritual vein point, Mary couldn't help but nodded, with a hint of realization in her eyes.

"Now I understand what you mean. This isn't just a crisis for France; it's a crisis for the entire world."

Koizumi nodded silently. Indeed, the Humanism Burning had become a crisis for all of humanity.

"So, even though the format is different, this is also a Holy Grail War..."

As she said this, a hint of doubt flickered in Mary's eyes...

"When I was summoned without a Master, danger alarm bells rang in my mind, but I didn't expect the actual situation to be far beyond my expectations." Mozart couldn't help but frown, with a hint of solemnity in his brows.

"There were six Servants confronting us at the time. Including our own Mashu, and if we don't count the others from the parallel world, Lord Koizumi, there were ten Servants in total. Isn't that too many?"

"The Law of Seven has been broken... although it's not to the point of being unlimited. However, it's not unusual for the number of Servants to exceed seven... according to records, there are also signs that there have been battles involving fifteen Servants."

Mashu couldn't help but frown, feeling a heavy feeling in her heart.

Koizumi couldn't help but be slightly taken aback. Fifteen Heroic Spirits fighting in the Holy Grail War? Is this such a grand event?

As far as Koizumi knew, the Holy Grail War usually only had seven riders, so these fifteen riders were quite terrifying.

"Ah. I see. It suddenly occurred to me, everyone!" Mary seemed to have thought of something. A look of surprise appeared on her face, and her excitement was beyond words.

"We were summoned here so that we can defeat them like heroes!"

Having said that, France has always been a country that advocates romance, and Marie must have been more or less influenced by this aspect. Marie must have attached great importance to heroic stories such as heroes saving beauties and saving the country.

"Maybe... saving the world or something... I still feel a little clueless, but when you think about it, it's normal. The Inhibition Force won't sit idly by and watch humanity and the world be destroyed. Although I don't really care about the job of savior..." Koizumi curled his lips and rolled his eyes.

In fact, this is also a very normal thing. Just like the previous singularity, Minamoto no Raikou and others should have been summoned by the restraining force. Similarly, Mary and Mozart should also have been summoned by the restraining force now.

As the restraining force of the planet, Gaia will not interfere unless there is any problem on Earth. The Human Incineration is just like setting a layer of fire on the surface of the earth for her, which will not be a problem for her. Moreover, the Earth may be better off without humans. Therefore, Gaia will not stop the Human Incineration, and it is already very good that she does not help.

However, as the restraining force of primates, Alaya must prevent the burning of humanity, because if humans are gone, she will also be dead. So no matter what, she will not sit idly by and watch human history being burned. She must ensure the survival of mankind no matter what, so she summoned these servants. The only thing I don’t understand is why she chose Mary and Mozart. Could it be that their fighting power can come in handy in the subsequent battles?

Koizumi was quite satisfied with Mozart's sonic attack, but the thing he couldn't understand was Mari...

How strong is the fighting power of this queen who exudes a strong aura of innocence and beauty?

Never mind, I still don't think highly of her... Koizumi doesn't think she's that powerful...

"Koizumi, this isn't just a maybe. We're definitely here to save the world... because I still love you all just as much as I did in life! If the goal was to destroy the world, these feelings wouldn't be necessary, or I wouldn't have been summoned in the first place! Right now, I feel like I've finally found my place in this world!"

Mary's face was filled with joy, and Koizumi was at a loss for words at such a cheerful expression.

This kid is so cheerful... Thinking of this, Koizumi glanced at Mashu and Ritsuka beside him.

"Mashu, Ritsuka, although this queen is a little naive, her cheerfulness is still worth learning from. Especially you, Mashu, don't apologize for everything inexplicably. After all, sometimes the fault is not yours."

Mashu and Ritsuka were slightly startled, then nodded subconsciously. After all, what Koizumi said seemed to be right.

Upon hearing this, Mary puffed up her lips and looked at Koizumi with dissatisfaction.
