One Who Drifts Ever Further Along the Path of Nihility (Continued)

A fair-skinned girl sat alone on the ground in front of a burning campfire.

She placed the spotless flag beside her, making everything seem so extraordinary.

Even in this place, the spot where the girl was located was as pure as a sacred realm.

"What's wrong, Miss Saintess? Why are you lost in thought in a place like this?"

The sudden sound startled Joan of Arc of Arc.

"Master? I'm sorry, I didn't pay much attention to the time. Is it time for my patrol?"

When Joan of Arc saw Mo Wang, she quickly stood up from the ground.

"It's nothing, it's nothing. There's still some time before the shift change. I just happened to be passing by and saw a beautiful girl here, so I came to take a look. Speaking of which, Miss Saintess is really amazing. Just by appearing, the entire army regained its morale. She truly deserves to be called the legendary saintess who saves the country."

Mo Wang then waved to Joan of Arc of Arc, gesturing for her to sit down.

Although they had spent some time together, Joan of Arc was still not quite used to Mo Wang's flirtatious way of speaking.

"Master, please don't call me Saintess anymore. To be honest, I still feel that I am not worthy of the title of Saintess."

Joan of Arc of Arc lowered her head somewhat embarrassed.

"Haha, I really didn't expect that someone who could almost be called a saintess in the future would be called that. I feel embarrassed."

At this moment, Mo Wang spoke to Joan of Arc as if he had discovered a new continent.

It's worth noting that Joan of Arc is arguably the most famous saint among them.

When the title of saint is mentioned, most people's first reaction is Joan of Arc. Even if you ask them if there are any other saints, almost no one can name a second one.

Compared to Joan of Arc, the fame of a certain Iron Fist Ma is several levels lower.

Joan of Arc is a top-tier figure both in history and in the ACG (Anime, Comics, and Games) world.

Yet this person actually felt uncomfortable because of this form of address.

"Because, in fact, I never thought about becoming a saint from the very beginning. I also don't think I did anything particularly great."

Joan of Arc listened to Mo Wang's words and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

In fact, just a few years ago, this young woman was just an ordinary village girl in the France countryside.

The girl at the time only chose to become Deliverance to save her country; from the beginning, she did not do so to become a saint.

As for Joan of Arc's thoughts, Mo Wang must not deny them.

Joan of Joan of Arc's story is undoubtedly dramatic.

After all, who could have imagined that a village girl, who could be found anywhere and who couldn't even read many words, would eventually become a hero who almost saved France?

You look like you have something on your mind.

Are you scared?

At this moment, Mo Wang looked at the silent Joan of Arc of Arc and asked again.

"Ah?"

"Um..."

Under Mo Wang's watchful gaze, Joan of Arc slowly nodded.

"I didn't expect that I was so obvious? Even the Master has noticed."

Joan of Arc then looked at Mo Wang and said.

"Hey, what do you mean by that? It makes me sound like some kind of uncultured person who doesn't care about what the people around me think."

Mo Wang then made a sarcastic remark to Joan of Arc.

Joan of Arc scratched her head somewhat embarrassedly, after all, Mo Wang's behavior towards his Servant didn't seem like that of someone who could be so observant as to notice the thoughts of those around him.

However, it seems that my Master actually knows everything and just enjoys seeing the embarrassed reactions of those around him, which is why he did this on purpose.

As expected, my Master has a really twisted sense of humor.

"Since you're just killing time anyway, why don't you tell me what you're afraid of, Miss Joan of Arc? I can't say I can help you solve anything, but at least it'll be a bit of fun to hear, right?"

"So, Master, do you really enjoy taking pleasure in other people's suffering?"

"Is there a problem? As the saying goes, happiness is built on the suffering of others."

Mo Wang responded to Joan of Arc's criticism without hesitation.

"Sigh~"

Joan of Arc sighed at Mo Wang's utterly shameless words.

Even so, Joan of Arc slowly began to speak.

"To be honest, I did feel a lot of pressure after I was resurrected."

"My other self, fueled by the flames of revenge, burned the king and countless people to death, and the future Gilles went mad because of me."

"My goal was clearly to save this country, but in the end, I failed to save anything and instead brought this country to the brink of disaster. I..."

"But this isn't your fault, is it?"

Before Joan of Arc could finish speaking, Mo Wang interrupted Joan of Arc, saying, "If you ask me, people like you who are like saints just have too many thoughts on their minds."

"That Black Joan is nothing but a counterfeit product made by that lunatic."

"It was that Marshal who made this mess. Even he himself didn't feel this guilty about it, so what are you, the victim, worrying about?"

"Not to mention, this godforsaken place is Singularity. What does it have to do with the Lord's timeline? Once we finally kill Goetia, this place will be corrected sooner or later. So, what exactly are you worried about?"

"I..."

"You're not trying to say that you're worried you're not worthy of the title of Saintess, are you?"

"Sigh, if you ask me, you're just worrying too much about nothing."

Whether you deserve the title of Saintess or not is not up to you or me. Only the final history can judge a person's final achievements.

"You are recognized by the world as a hero, and have become a famous hero and saint. Those who persecuted you will ultimately not have a good reputation. This is not something you should worry about."

"I think you should try to be more positive. Stop being so sentimental and overly dramatic. Look on the bright side; at least you're better off than those guys who are persecuting you, right?"

"Look at you now, as a well-known Servant, you can run around to various Holy Grail War whenever you want. On the other hand, those people have been forgotten somewhere, and no one even remembers them when the Holy Grail War starts."

"Pfft!"

Upon hearing Mo Wang's words, Joan of Arc of Arc couldn't help but laugh.

"It sounds like you're quite good at comforting people, Master. You can even bring up things from this angle."

Joan of Arc looked at Mo Wang and couldn't help but smile.

"Of course. To be honest, I also have a psychologist's license, but I don't usually tell others about it."

At this moment, Mo Wang declared that he was the chief psychotherapist at St. Freya, with unparalleled talk therapy skills, praised even by the Valkyrie! What type of woman hadn't he encountered?

"Finally, let me give you one last piece of advice."

"The more you think, the more likely you are to actually turn to the dark side."

"Whatever it is, just be true to yourself."

Mo Wang to say this to Joan of Arc.

"Thank you for reminding me, Master."

After Joan of Arc nodded to Mo Wang, she looked at the flag that had always been with her in her hand, and a hint of excitement appeared on her face.

"If you understand, then get back to patrol!"

"Honestly, she's only this age and she's already so sentimental."

"If you really feel bad about it, then you should finish this business right away and come to Chaldea to work for me."

"The shortage of manpower is a very real issue."

Mo Wang said to Joan of Arc with a hint of annoyance.

"If my Master summons me, I will definitely go back."

Joan of Arc then smiled sweetly and went off on patrol with her flag.

Watching Joan of Arc's retreating figure, Mo Wang kept some things to himself.

Having read the script, Mo Wang also knows that part of Joan of Arc's worries stemmed from fear that the Dragon Witch was truly another side of herself.

Perhaps, in the moment before her death, Joan of Arc truly felt intense hatred towards everyone at that time.

However, it seems that the girl herself has come to a realization.

"Sigh, these guys seem even more difficult to deal with than St. Freya's students?"

Mo Wang was about to stand up, he suddenly felt a familiar scent behind him.

"What are you doing here again, girl? How long have you been standing there?"

At this moment, a girl with light purple hair slowly approached Mo Wang Mo Wang from behind.

"Actually, it wasn't long. I was a little worried about you, so I came to check on you. I didn't expect to see you Joan of Arc."

Mashu then spoke to Mo Wang.

"Oh ho? Is Mashu jealous because she saw me talking to a pretty girl?"

"Oh my, I didn't expect little Mashu to have grown up so much."

Seeing Mashu like this, Mo Wang couldn't help but laugh and pinch Mashu's nose.

"No way! What kind of person do you take me for, senior?"

Mashu blushed as Mo Wang pinched her nose, then broke free from Mo Wang clutches.

"If I were to get angry just because a senior is talking to a pretty girl, I would have been furious long ago."

Mashu couldn't help but say that.

"Oh? In that case, shall I go and have a chat with Miss Mary?"

"You're not allowed to go!"

However, as soon as Mo Wang finished speaking, Mashu immediately yelled angrily at Mo Wang.

But as soon as she shouted that, seeing Mo Wang's mischievous grin, Mashu immediately blushed and lowered her head.

"Senior! You're really wicked."

Mashu couldn't help but complain to Mo Wang at this moment.

"Sorry, sorry, I just couldn't resist teasing Mashu a bit because she's so cute."

"My dear junior, she shouldn't mind, right?"

Mo Wang said to Mashu with a cheerful smile.

"Senior, you've really changed a lot."

Looking at Mo Wang Mashu's smiling face, Mashu couldn't help but say something.

At the very beginning, Mo Wang Wangming seemed completely uninterested in everything.

But now, Mo Wang seems to have become a completely different person.

Well, even Mashu doesn't understand which is worse, the lazy, slacking-off type or the fun-loving type.

But at least there has been some change, hasn't there?

"Senior, are you really alright?"

However, even though Mo Wang has changed a lot recently, Mashu still couldn't help but worry.

When Mo Wang started to get angry today, along with the Destruction rage, Mashu once again saw the Nihility in Mo Wang's eyes.

That feeling of Nihility, as if it were about to devour everything, seems to be more severe than before.

"What could possibly be wrong with me? I'm perfectly fine, senior!"

"Didn't you see me pin that dragon to the ground and beat it up with just one hand today?"

Mo Wang was just about to show Mashu his muscles.
