In Type-Moon, people create a magic family lineage

The perception of consciousness, the gaze seen through the overlapping and illusory elemental tides opposite, the sudden changes in the world where Roya stands, the 'division', 'covering', and 'overlapping' of the space where he stands.

The phenomenon of dividing space, covering the world, and overlapping images was undoubtedly a manifestation of the 'Inherent Marble', one of the highest-level magic arts that he had witnessed before, which manifested the mental world into reality and was almost comparable to magic.

At this moment, Roya had already unfolded his mental image and stood within it.

At this moment, he also possessed a level of mystery several times or even ten times greater than his normal state, thanks to the support of his own mental image!

Although his regular skills are strong, they are only about the same as Lucas, who has the double crown base.

Only with multiple times the support can it surpass it.

With a tenfold increase, it can—directly crush!

Of course, numerical suppression alone is not enough to force Lu Kang to retreat again and again.

If it were merely a matter of overwhelming strength, the enemy would be far superior to us, and given the nature of mind magic, we would never be defeated in a single blow.

Even so, he was able to persevere, persist, and even seek opportunities to overcome the odds.

What really matters is...

"A rebellion has broken out in France!"

The earth roared and the sky howled; Lu Kang, who had once pursued the north and south with the 'miracles' he himself had displayed, could clearly feel this.

I sensed a shift in 'faith' occurring within the French territory!

"Did you realize that?"

Roya pressed forward relentlessly, his movements unwavering. The man, whose murderous intent had been ignited and who wanted to silence him, grew even colder. He didn't forget to retaliate at this moment—using words to return the blow he had just suffered: "You, who are called the Sword of France, and that so-called 'Saintess of France,' Jeanne Darc, who is called the Shield of France, the France you saved was never a fortress."

"On this land, there are your supporters, but also traitors, powerful figures who have sided with the English, and those who are close to the Roman Catholic Church."

"You saved France, but you harmed their interests."

"You think you can unite everything, but you forget that the greed of the human heart is endless."

"And now, when you are in danger, when Jeanne Darc leads her army deep into enemy territory."

"At a time when you are all too busy taking care of yourselves."

"It is they who have raised the banner of rebellion!"

...

When Victoire faced an unknown enemy outside the city of Paris.

Just as Joan of Arc's army was about to breach the last English fortress in Normandy.

A long-planned rebellion suddenly erupted in the rear of France, in a region that had never truly fallen and should have been the most secure in terms of rule.

They were holding the crown prince's banner hostage.

They claimed that the French 'sword' and 'shield' were the real traitors.

They conspired with the English.

They also conspired with the Roman Catholic Church.

They attempted to judge the heroes who protected the nation by accusing them of both secular and religious crimes!

—The Hundred Years' War

...

Throughout history, all those in power and wealth—they are the true traitors!

—Deborah A. Freiore, *Joan of Arc and Vic, and the Hundred Years' War*

...

The banner of rebellion was flying high, as if it had been planned for a long time.

Throughout France, in every region, city, and even town, there were rebels against the nation and its people.

Inside Chinon's castle.

Dressed in men's clothing, the dashing Crown Prince looked at the numerous ministers who were staging a 'coup' before him, his face contorted with embarrassment as he remained silent.

Orleans.

The fortified fortress lowered the iris banner left by Joan of Arc after she saved the place, and raised the flag of the Roman Catholic Church.

From Foyy in the Languedoc region in the south of France to Calais, which was only recently liberated in the north, from the Duchy of Britta in the west to Burgundy in the east, though not all, war was reignited in every region, and greed was rampant in every place, with powerful figures holding hostages and rebelling!

The unity of the French people gradually crumbled.

The influence of the Dayuan environment has also been affected by the pollution of 'human reason'—and thus a deviation has occurred.

Lu Kang did not "disappear," but Luo Ya gained "increase."

"Now, the only demand of those rebellious nobles, under the direction of the English and the Roman Catholic Church, is your life and the life of Jeanne Darc."

"Your presence poses too great a threat to them."

"And those noble officers who have joined you will soon have to make choices and sacrifices in order to achieve complete victory and peace—sacrifice yourselves to secure the rear and thus salvage France's victory."

"You will still be attacked from both sides, and you will be isolated and surrounded by enemies."

This is an off-field factor.

This also explains why Royal did not directly approach Luca after arriving in France, and what preparations he made during this period.

This is even more in line with Lu Kang's impression and memory.

Its final fate was exactly the same as that of Joan of Arc.

To some extent, the man named Luo Ya's style of doing things is quite similar to Lu Kang's. They both increase their bargaining chips outside the battlefield and use external factors to influence the outcome of the game when appropriate.

But to say that Joan of Arc's fate was exactly the same...

"That's not necessarily the case."

I might 'die'.

Joan of Arc would never again fight alone!

...

"I'm sorry, Lady Jeanne... For the sake of the family, we must hurry back."

"I'm sorry, Lady Joan of Arc—"

"Feel sorry!"

On the westward journey from Paris to Normandy.

One by one, carrier pigeons and ravens arrived, carrying messages.

The once mighty army of ten thousand men finally disintegrated due to the influence of the rear areas.

One flag after another departs.

One unit after another retreated and returned.

Their honor as knights, officers, and soldiers prevented them from harming Joan of Arc and Vic.

But as members of the aristocracy, they could no longer stand by their side.

Regardless of faction, everyone eagerly awaited the final victory in this war and would not allow any unexpected events to occur, even if it meant sacrificing the heroes who brought them victory—they were willing to do so.

What they want is not a victory for heroes.

Instead, it should belong to the nobles and the upper class!

And so, gazing at the dwindling number of flags and the dwindling number of troops, Joan of Arc fell silent.

So she looked toward Paris.

They seemed to finally understand what kind of opponents Lu Kang would face if he stayed.

Just a day before, the girl was surrounded by thousands of people.

One day later.

Beside her, there were only three hundred people left—three hundred Templar Knights.

These three hundred Templar Knights, who would never betray her, seemed to be preparing for what might happen today... With them around, the girl would be in no danger.

so.

Did Vic anticipate this situation?

Should I retreat?

Should we return?

With only three hundred men remaining, even if they ventured deep into enemy territory and fought alone, they would absolutely not be able to capture what was arguably the most fortified fortress in France, Normandy.

Should I protect myself?

...

On that day, the saintess faced a crucial decision.

The sages of that day met their end.

— *Triple Greatness (The Secret Scroll)*

...

“I am the fundamental principle that transcends all things, the eternal and unchanging serpent; I am the Akasha who records all things, and the serpent behind the scenes that transcends eternity.”

"This body is extraordinary and beyond compare, transcending the eternal."

"..."

The elements remain unchanged, and the mystery persists.

Having gained the upper hand, Roya began 'chanting' again.

For him, who possesses the super-superior miracle of 'item organization', most magic tricks can be performed instantly by relying on his daily accumulation of organization skills—he only needs to organize them afterward.

The only things that require chanting are higher-level, mysterious concepts that even he cannot contain.

Although they had gained the upper hand, almost 'crushing' the opponent.

But he still had to do his best.

Completely crush the opposing Viktorval—completely destroy this man who knows all his secrets!

You heard him chanting.

You sense an even more terrifying mystery unfolding.

You know, the other party is deploying a more complete 'inherent barrier'.

You know that your 'end' is coming.

Crushed, scattered, torn, broken.

This is the only sound Lu Kang can hear at this moment, a sound coming from his own body.

His mind magic is endless, but magic has its limits. His pseudo-primordial core and god-like body are stable and similar to the remnants of the divine era, but they are ultimately only similar—not real.

He was no match for Roya.

His body is breaking down.

From the physical body to magic, from the heart to the circuits.

From this point onward, from that point onward.

This marks the beginning of a true "ebb and flow" in the market.

But Lu Kang remained fearless and calm.

He's just retreating.

But they did not admit defeat.

"Aren't you afraid of death?"

This scene made Luo Ya frown slightly.

Such a scene, however, caused the reincarnated person who was pursuing immortality to twitch his eyebrows slightly.

Although he believed that the other party was also a reincarnated being, no reincarnated being could continue to reincarnate when their magic power was about to dissipate.
