A Vimana suspended in the sky. Siegfried was extracted from the capsule, after various methods were tried to heal his body.
"'Ritsuka, use the Atlas Institute's clothes. You should have the skill to dispel curses called Isis' Rain.'"
Olga Marie gives instructions to Master.
"Yes! Form Change, Atlas!"
With the command, her appearance changes. It's a uniform with a unique design, different from the mage's robes.
"By the way, summon Chaldea's Jeanne as well. Though she's a bit loose, it's better than letting her play around."
"Me from Chaldea...? It feels strange. Are you doing well there?"
"I said it before. She's a bit loose... Well, actions speak louder than words, so call her, Master."
-- My impression is that Chaldea's Jeanne gives a cheerful and lively impression, while this Jeanne here gives a composed impression.
Strange, isn't it? Just being summoned to different places can change someone so much. But both are cute, no doubt.
"If it's about being a Servant, that's how it is! It's amazing! I want to talk with myself too!"
"I wonder if I also have a counterpart... Well, I'd probably get tired of her foolishness."
"Alright! 'Jeanne d'Arc!'"
She makes a connection with Chaldea, her right hand shining.
"Hello! I'm Chaldea's Jeanne d'Arc! How's everyone doing? Yes!"
"You are... Chaldea's me..."
Facing each other, Jeanne and Jeanne.
...They have the same face, well, of course.
"I will choose a few Noble Phantasms related to curses. If I want them to be completely dispelled, I need to make sure they are fully exorcised."
"I'm sorry... well, it's not bad, but it was impolite to apologize."
"Is that so? Is the origin of your soul 'apology'?"
...
While the two saints and the Master struggle to dispel the curse, I heard the story of Siegfried's summoning.
Summoned early and without a Master, Siegfried wandered for a while and then apparently helped a town that was under attack.
If he could wield Balmung, there would be no problem, but being pursued by multiple Servants made it tough. Eventually, he was hidden by an enemy Servant and seemed to be at a loss.
"The Servant who protected me... it was you, right? You two have a similar aura."
"Saint Martha...!"
"As expected of our senior souls! Both dealing with dragons, their souls must have been attracted to each other! Truly fate!"
"Dragons... dragons? Oh, that... it was a turtle... a turtle? No, a turtle dragon... no, that could be possible..."
――Truly. Martha guided me on the right path during this journey.
And Siegfried. He instinctively takes up his sword against crises, naturally becoming a shield for the weak, a heroic figure.
Even without being asked, even when not in perfect condition... I feel a sensation in my soul, as if it trembles with fervor for his way of life, to protect someone.
I want to live like that too. Even if I don't fully understand, if I have to choose between good and evil...
I want to choose the path of goodness. Like this king, devoting myself to the pride and duty I have chosen.
Surely, because I viewed the world from a perspective of goodness, it was so beautiful.
"What's wrong, King of Heroes?"
"Nothing... it's just a wild idea, dragon slayer."
"I apologize."
"Don't apologize. You are a humble man."
"Most of the curses are dispelled!"
Chaldea's Jeanne announces energetically.
"I report! 90% of the curse has been dispelled, but we still need one more saint to deal with the curse on the Spirit Origin affected by the dragon slayer's function!"
"You and you... well, Jeanne and the country girl. I didn't expect you wouldn't be able to dispel it, Master. The curse was meticulously placed."
"What is needed is the baptismal chant. We need one more saint as a Servant."
"Is there a saint conveniently lying around? Not even pretending to be a Saber?"
"Well, King of Heroes!"
"Is that so? There must be at least 30 saints for every one.?"
"We need to stop this runaway god of drawings. -- No, it's good that there are more Sabers."
-- A god who increases saints must be a good god.
"Hehe, Jeanne from Chaldea? I'll save our talk for when we get back to Chaldea. You seem very happy!"
"Yes! I am happy!"
Jeanne smiles warmly.
"Alright, are you done? You can leave now."
"Yes! ...King of Heroes!"
"What is it, a report?"
"...When you return safely, there's something I want you to eat. I'll make it with all my heart, so please try it!"
Jeanne's home cooking. ...I'm looking forward to it. What will it taste like?
"Oh? The country girl seems to have a good sense. Very well, I'll specially permit it. For the sake of my name, I shall finish every last bite."
This vessel speaks haughtily.
"I'm happy! Good luck, everyone! I'll do my best too!"
"Yes. Take care of yourself..."
Jeanne returns to Chaldea.
"Hmph, simple country cooking is good once in a while. Bread and soup. I wish I had some gold leaf, though."
――As I look down, Fou is looking up at me.
"What's the matter, strange creature?"
"Fou (My condolences. It's because of you that you've dug your own grave.)"
His eyes showed pity and sympathy.
