evening
After sleeping for a whole day, Joan still did not seem to wake up.
Even though it was already past mealtime, she was still deep in her sleep.
The sleeping Holy Maiden had unknowingly taken off her silver armor.
She was wearing a simple blue dress and had a sweet smile on her face. She looked like the sleeping beauty in fairy tales.
Everything looked so peaceful.
Until…
The blanket that she was wrapped in was mercilessly lifted!
"The sun has already set."
"You lazy fellow, how much longer do you want to sleep?”
Jiang Shang mercilessly lifted the blanket. The sudden cold breeze made the young girl open her eyes in panic and let out a panicked and cute cry.
"What's wrong…"
"The wheat in the field, was it stolen by someone…"
The drowsy Joan sat up from the bed vigilantly, rubbing her big hazy eyes and looking out the window in confusion!
At this moment…
It was the time of day and night…
On one side was the rising night sky, and on the other side was the setting sun.
The beautiful scenery outside the window made Joan open her mouth in shock.
"How long have I been asleep?"
Joan covered her head in confusion and asked Jiang Shang.
As a follower, as long as she had enough mana to replenish herself, she should be fine even if she didn't sleep or rest!
But...
She was relaxed, but like an ordinary person, she forgot about time in her dream.
"About ten hours…"
"I asked the kitchen to make duck legs in oil seal and cream baked potatoes.”
Jiang Shang placed the multi-layered lunch box in his hand on the table in the bedroom.
Although it had not been opened yet, the fragrance of oil had already spread through the lunchbox and surrounded the room.
Gulp!
Perhaps it was because she had just woken up, but Joan, who smelled the food from her hometown, instinctively swallowed her saliva.
After being stunned for a moment, Jade's pale face instantly turned into an alluring red color!
"Ah!"
"No!"
"Lord Jiang Shang, please listen to my explanation!”
Joan covered her burning cheeks and tried to argue incoherently.
"Alright…"
"It won't taste good if it's cold…"
Jiang Shang told Joan to come down quickly while he opened the layers of lunch boxes.
Duck legs in oil, roasted vegetables, beef stew in red wine, creamy baked potatoes...
For modern people, these dishes were not considered sumptuous.
But for Joan…
The Middle Ages that she was in, that chaotic era.
Such sumptuous food was rarely eaten, even during major celebrations.
To her, this was already the most delicious food she could think of.
"Let's eat together…"
Joan was a little embarrassed and could only invite Jiang Shang to sit down and enjoy it together.
"No thanks…"
"I just had dinner…"
Jiang Shang shook his head. He sat at the table and gestured for Joan to come over quickly.
"Ah, this…"
Although she was a little embarrassed, things had already developed to this point. Joan could only follow her heart!
Anyway...
She had nothing left to lose…
Joan sat by the table and sniffed the delicious food on the table with a blissful smile.
She wasn't a picky eater, but the food she put into her mouth with a fork was the most tempting boeuf au vin.
Unlike Morgan, who had the elegance of a queen.
Joan was much more straightforward when she was eating.
She was not used to using cutlery.
Especially when she was cutting the duck leg. If she wasn't being stared at, she would probably use her hands.
Especially the bread stuffed into his mouth, which made one side of his cheek bulge slightly.
After all...
She was originally a country girl. Compared to the elegance of the royal family, this straightforwardness and naturalness seemed even more otherworldly.
So much so that…
He didn't feel too much pressure when interacting with her.
They even gradually became familiar with each other and could play like friends.
He didn't need to be under immense pressure like he was facing Morgan. He had to consider the consequences of every move.
After all...
Morgan's cold personality didn't seem like a joke.
Moreover…
The way Joan ate was also very cute…
...
"That's right…"
"That follower of yours seems to have always been very mysterious…"
"Even I haven't heard you mention anything about her.”
Joan mumbled while eating baked potatoes.
This girl had completely ruined her appearance. She didn't even pretend anymore. Perhaps she knew that with her culture and self-restraint, she was destined to not be able to eat like a lady.
Since that was the case, he might as well eat as much as he wanted until he was full!
"About this…"
Jiang Shang scratched his face, and the expression on his face became a little complicated.
Joan of Arc was a saint.
Morgan was a witch.
The two different countries had a war that lasted for a hundred years.
If the two of them met, something bad would definitely happen.
It was precisely because of this that Jiang Shang did not say much about this issue.
"Actually…"
"I felt it when she appeared.”
" Although you have summoned a Frenzied Follower, the opponent is a terrifying magician.”
"The magic power she released could even block my perception, so even now, I don't know her real name.”
Joan voiced her doubts.
As the Battle of the Holy Grail drew closer, she felt that it was necessary for her to understand the power that she had gathered!
Since Joan had said so, Jiang Shang sighed with a complicated expression.
"She's not a heroic spirit from human history, but a fairy from myths and legends.”
"She comes from Britain, and she has a complicated relationship with the Eternal King.”
"Her evaluation in human history is not very good. In fact, it is quite bad.”
"So... I just..."
Jiang Shang's words were very vague. He started to worry about Joan's reaction after knowing Morgan's identity.
After hearing Jiang Shang's explanation, Joan tilted her head in confusion. She chewed the beef while thinking.
Suddenly!
She seemed to have guessed that person's identity!
"Ah... I know!"
"So that's how it is, so that's how it is…"
"If that's the case, then everything makes sense.”
"Hmph hmph hmph…"
Joan showed an expression of understanding. She proudly picked up a piece of beef and pointed in Jiang Shang's direction.
She put on the appearance of a famous detective and said excitedly!
"Lord Jiang Shang! I already know who the Berserker Follower you summoned is!”
"It's 'Mei Lin', right?"
