Age of Heroes, I Was Exposed by Alaya

Because, The Nameless Heroic Spirit's words clearly denied the existence of the Lord!

He arrogantly claimed the Lord didn't exist at all, turning Joan, who was originally a Catholic Saintess, into a liar who deceived people!

Most importantly.

The video was produced with extreme excellence, surpassing 99% of movies, and was definitely made with a huge investment.

A video only a few minutes long would likely cost at least tens of millions of euros!

Even tens or hundreds of millions!

Who else would be willing to spend so much money to smear France and Saint Joan?

That's right, only the country across the strait—

Britain!

Amidst the public outrage.

Roland, one of the Twelve Paladins, stepped forward and said loudly, "Your Majesty, this is a British conspiracy, clearly meant to retaliate for the incident with Lancelot!"

Before watching the video.

This meeting was precisely about how to deal with Lancelot.

He was originally French but was inspired by King Arthur's personal charm and voluntarily joined the Knights of the Round Table.

He became the renowned "Knight of the Lake," specifically responsible for purchasing grain from France and transporting it to Britain.

That in itself wasn't the issue.

The problem was that he had an affair with Queen Guinevere, which was discovered by Agravain and Mordred, leading to the deaths of Agravain, Gaheris, and Gareth, among others, becoming the most severe disaster for the Knights of the Round Table.

Afterward, he forcibly abducted Guinevere and fled Britain, returning to his homeland, France.

Entering the Age of Heroes, the Knights of the Round Table held immense hostility towards him.

However, under the direction of the two leaders, Artoria and Joan, the two great nations began to seek cooperation for mutual benefit.

The first ice-breaking event was King Arthur's public forgiveness of Lancelot's betrayal yesterday.

At the press conference, the two shook hands and made peace, becoming a global headline.

They thought everything was over, but they never expected such a video slandering the Saintess and France to be released.

And it spread throughout the entire world!

It garnered extremely high discussion heat in various countries around the world.

Duke Lawrence, the Speaker, suppressed his anger and said, "Your Majesty, we must find the mastermind behind this and punish everyone involved, showing the world the majesty of our France!"

Everyone's eyes were fixed on him.

With the powerful and domineering presence of the Saintess, she would definitely take action to uncover all conspirators and inflict the most brutal torture.

It was slightly strange.

The great Saintess of France, with her golden eyes, was staring intently at the Nameless Heroic Spirit in the video.

She appeared to not have heard their words at all.

Duke Lawrence whispered a reminder, "Your Majesty, how should we punish this group behind the video's production, and the actor, the Nameless Heroic Spirit, who dared to slander you in the video?"

"Oh, how do you wish to punish him?"

The Dark Saintess asked calmly.

Her expression was incredibly serene, showing no trace of the expected anger.

Instead, There was a familiar mockery?

Duke Lawrence answered without hesitation, "At least a hundred years in prison! If the death penalty hadn't been abolished long ago, he should have been sent to the stake and burned alive as a blasphemous heretic."

"Yes, send this so-called Nameless Heroic Spirit to the stake!"

"Arrest him! Sentence him to the ultimate penalty!"

The other council members angrily proposed.

The entire conference hall instantly became impassioned.

"Heh, how ironic!"

Joan suddenly let out a soft laugh, surveying the impassioned council members. "This scene, how similar it is to that scene from back then!"

Everyone suddenly realized something was amiss and stared at her blankly.

What did Her Majesty mean?

Could it be that everything in the video was true?

No, no, that's impossible!

How could someone willingly remain nameless and silently save Saint Joan?

The Speaker, full of confidence, suddenly felt his pupils contract, a sense of foreboding flashing through his mind.

The next moment.

On Joan's exquisite and flawless face, flames blazed in her golden eyes, her voice echoing throughout the entire council hall: "Roar, my wrath!"

Flames surged around her, releasing endless fury!

Wait, what's going on?

All the council members and knights stared at each other, completely bewildered.

Flames enveloped Joan, completely igniting the throne.

The temperature in the entire council hall suddenly rose.

Even more terrifying was.

This was no ordinary flame.

It was a demonic flame fueled by her own and the surrounding resentment, capable of devouring souls!

Within the flames, it felt as if one could smell the scent of burning flesh and hear the screams and wails of countless gods!

"See, my intuition was right. Let me be clear, this has nothing to do with me!"

A'fu hopped away cheerfully.

He had warned them beforehand that there would be trouble, and sure enough, trouble had arrived!

The remaining Paladins, joining forces to protect all the ordinary people present, were filled with disbelief.

This Dark Saintess had always been strong and domineering, but she had never been so out of control.

What had happened?

Joan gazed eastward, sighing softly, "Why did I forget?"

Upon seeing the video, forgotten memories flooded back into her mind.

Scenes of them together, instances of him saving her, again and again.

Meeting, knowing, accompanying...

She had been just an ordinary illiterate village girl, but after meeting him, she underwent a metamorphosis, like a butterfly emerging from its cocoon.

That person taught her to read and write, imparting a vast amount of knowledge.

Many nights, the lessons continued until dawn.

She should have remembered everything clearly, so why had she forgotten it all?

The Speaker cautiously inquired, "Your Majesty?"

The Saintess appeared extremely uncharacteristic today, which sparked a bold thought in his mind—

Was that person real?

Joan didn't spare him a glance, her gaze distant, "You asked me to give up those burdens, and I did, to live the life I wanted."

"But what about you? Why are you still content to be nameless, silently walking in the darkness?"

"Why are you unwilling to let the world know what you've done?"

The world was madly infatuated with the grandeur and power of the Heroic Spirits, worshipping them as guardian deities.

They had no idea that there was a nameless Heroic Spirit who silently protected humanity, willing to give everything.

Joan absolutely could not tolerate him being forgotten by everyone!

Why?

That person walked in the darkness, participating in countless battles.

Countless bloody battles had finally forged the current brilliant Age of Heroes.

But.

No one remembered him.

No one!

Even she, the Emperor of France, who had been personally saved by him and admired by countless people, had forgotten him!

"To awaken the lost memories after restarting the Earth, and to give them existence once more, is this what you intended, Alaya?"

Joan's expression was incredibly complex.

At this moment, she was certain that the publisher of the video was none other than Alaya, the collective consciousness of humanity.

And the nameless Heroic Spirit was its favorite proxy.

A nameless Heroic Spirit who walked through the river of history, safeguarding human history.

"Your name is unknown to anyone, but your deeds will last forever? Heh heh, this time, I will absolutely let the world know what a great person you truly are!"

Joan suddenly broke into a smile, her smile exceptionally joyful.

Then.

The Emperor of France, with great authority, issued an order: "Convene a press conference, and I will personally respond to this video!"

"Hooray!"

A'fu, who had been hiding far away, ran back with a grin.

The remaining Paladins and councilors exchanged uneasy glances.

What exactly was His Majesty planning to do?

Surely she couldn't be planning to confess her love to that person in front of the entire world, could she?

[France to Hold Press Conference, Emperor to Personally Respond to Video!]

This news instantly spread like wildfire, reaching countless people around the world.

Britain, Prime Minister's Office.

Mordred, dressed in a sharp suit, saw the news and pouted, "Huh, how strange. Why aren't the French suspecting us?"

"It is indeed quite strange."

Beside her, Gawain also wore a puzzled expression.

The Hundred Years' War, coupled with the struggle for European hegemony, had historically pitted the officials and citizens of the two countries against each other.

Whenever they committed some dirty deed abroad, they would impersonate people from the opposing country and throw mud at each other.
