Chapter 143 - Jeanne: Bingo! You Guessed It!
"Who?"
As soon as Mahiro spoke, the other three naturally felt someone approaching and all looked in one direction.
A blonde girl ran at an extremely fast speed and appeared in front of Mahiro and the others in the blink of an eye.
"Holy sword wielders and devils?"
After seeing the four of them, Jeanne was stunned for a moment, then narrowed her eyes cautiously, looking at Mahiro and Rias.
As an outsider who had just arrived in Kuoh Town, Jeanne naturally did not know the relationship between the church duo and the others.
Therefore, Jeanne thought that the church duo had drawn their holy swords and were confronting Rias.
'Although Cao Cao told me to try not to conflict with them, I didn't expect to encounter such a situation on the first day. It seems unavoidable.'
Jeanne made a judgment in her heart and regarded Rias and Mahiro as enemies.
"It's really a coincidence; I didn't expect to witness such a wonderful scene when I first came to Kuoh Town."
There was hostility and excitement in Jeanne's tone, and a fierce aura suddenly emerged from her body.
A ray of light flashed in Jeanne's right hand, and a holy sword appeared in her grasp.
"Holy sword?"
Irina and Xenovia couldn't help but be drawn to the sword in Jeanne's hand because the aura of this sword was somewhat similar to that of the holy swords they wielded.
'Another holy sword wielder?'
Rias squinted her eyes and looked at the blonde girl who had suddenly appeared.
As a devil, her sensitivity to holy swords was no less than that of church duo.
"Hey? You are quite knowledgeable!"
Jeanne waved the holy sword in her hand and said with excitement, "It is indeed a holy sword! But it's slightly different from the holy swords in your hands."
"Were you sent by the headquarters to support us?" Irina asked suspiciously.
Generally speaking, holy sword wielders belong to the church.
Even if they are not officially affiliated, they are usually closely linked to it.
Although independent holy sword wielders exist, they are exceedingly rare.
The blonde girl suddenly appearing in Kuoh Town at this time made it easy to assume she was church support.
"Church headquarters?" Jeanne denied.
"I wasn't sent by the church. I just passed by Kuoh Town and felt the aura of a holy sword, so I rushed over to see what was happening."
After finishing speaking, Jeanne licked the corner of her mouth, her eyes filled with eager excitement.
She looked at Rias and said, "Wielders-chan, do you want to join forces with me? Or should I deal with them by myself?"
"Eh?" Xenovia was stunned.
"Wait a minute, we're not going to fight," Irina said quickly.
"It doesn't matter, Wielders-chan. I'm very strong. It looks like you two just fought with her, right?" Jeanne said confidently.
"If you want to rest, that's no problem. Leave it to me."
Jeanne carried the holy sword, staring at Rias and ready to take action at any moment.
"What? Do you want to fight?" Rias was unafraid.
She had no reason to back down from this blonde girl who had suddenly appeared, even if the opponent was a holy sword wielder.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense, and a battle could break out at any moment.
"I said wait a minute," exclaimed Irina.
"Wielders-chan, do you think I'm stealing your opponent, so you want to stop me?"
Jeanne restrained herself slightly and said indifferently, "It doesn't matter. If you want, I'll let you have her. But if you're unable to defeat her, I will still help."
"The two of them are not enemies at the moment," Xenovia spoke calmly.
"A devil is not an enemy?" Jeanne was stunned for a moment, then looked surprised.
"Could it be that you two have already joined the devil's faction?" she asked in a strange tone.
"No, it's..." Irina retorted loudly. As devout believers, how could they tolerate others slandering them?
"Irina!" Xenovia narrowed her eyes and stopped her.
Irina swallowed her words halfway through.
"We have our reasons, but before that, can you tell us who you are?" Xenovia asked.
"My identity? Sure, no problem." Jeanne nodded and said directly, "My name is Jeanne."
"Jeanne?" Mahiro was slightly taken aback.
Isn't this a member of the Hero Faction?
'That guy Cao Cao didn't give up and sent Jeanne here,' Mahiro glanced at her and quickly guessed her intentions.
Cao Cao came only yesterday, and now Jeanne, one of the members, appeared.
Mahiro did not think it was a coincidence.
Cao Cao's idea was clear: he wanted to use Jeanne to recruit Mahiro into the Hero Faction.
Moreover, apart from Cao Cao, the leader who took the initiative to reveal his identity, the identities of its members had been kept secret so far.
It's a pity that Cao Cao didn't know Mahiro already knew the identities of the core members through the anime.
"Jeanne?"
Hearing her declare her identity, Xenovia widened her eyes in surprise and looked at Jeanne in disbelief.
"Isn't that the saint's name?" Irina, like Xenovia, looked at Jeanne in shock. "No way? Are you..."
As members of the church, they naturally understood who Jeanne or Joan of arc was, so the two felt a little shocked.
Moreover, Jeanne held a holy sword, which added to the credibility.
"Bingo! You guessed it!" Jeanne smiled.
"That saint is my ancestor, and I am the descendant who bears the name of Joan of Arc."
