"Excuse me for interrupting, Mr. Luo Bo, let me ask you this: do the beggars of Sapphire Territory go to the Vatican to pray? Or are there any beggars in Sapphire Territory?"
Xier interrupted Luo Bo's answer and asked again. After hearing this question, Luo Bo wanted to talk about some data in his memory, but he looked at Jeanne's expression and changed his words:
"Sorry, I'm not sure about this either."
Robbo replied, shaking his head.
Joan of Arc was also attracted by Seele's question at this time, and she couldn't help but think about it. During her time in the Vatican, there seemed to be no beggars in the Vatican to pray.
Not only that, even some poorer civilians have never been here...
Joan of Arc had also stepped out of the Vatican. She sometimes followed some priests and nuns to the homes of believers to pray and bless them.
As she was thinking, Joan of Arc raised her head and looked at Xier.
"Miss Xier, what do you want to say?"
Xier took a sip of the tea on the table nonchalantly, then continued:
"Nothing, I just thought it was funny what Miss Jeanne said about the Sapphire Territory being a place of harmony and peace."
Jeanne was a little displeased and wanted to refute, but Seele spoke again:
"What you know is merely what the Vatican officials want to tell you. Joan of Arc, have you ever considered whether your God of Light has truly protected his followers?"
"What do you want to say! The God of Light must care about his believers!"
Joan of Arc slammed the table and stood up, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little subtle.
"Ms. Jeanne, that Miss Seele definitely doesn't mean that. Let's first..."
"Actually, what I wanted to express is exactly what you meant."
Xier spoke again.
Joan of Arc was really enraged this time. She drew her sword and pointed it at Seele.
Gobro's long sword, Gobdong's double swords, and everyone else drew their weapons to warn Jeanne and the others.
The same thing happened on Joan of Arc's side, but they all looked at Seele with wide eyes, wanting her to apologize to Saint Joan of Arc and the God of Light as soon as possible.
"Miss Jeanne, I just want to ask you one question. Are you believers in the God of Light?"
"Of course! Is there anything to doubt about that?"
Joan of Arc spoke angrily. She didn't understand what the handsome woman in front of her meant, and why she kept provoking the god she believed in.
"Since you are all believers in the God of Light, I would like to ask you, why are you being chased around by several major noble factions in the Sapphire Territory? Is your God of Light on vacation today and hasn't seen you?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's pupils dilated a little.
Yes... If the God of Light really heard their prayers, why are they still suffering like this now?
Joan of Arc's hand holding the sword was shaking a little at this time.
Yes, if the God of Light was really watching over them, then why did all these things happen? Why did so many people die?
In an instant, there was a tiny crack in Joan of Arc's faith.
"I don't mean anything else. Please don't misunderstand me. I just want to say that it wasn't the God of Light who saved you, but Miss Jeanne d'Arc. Please don't put all of Miss Jeanne d'Arc's efforts on the God of Light."
After Xier said this, the atmosphere at the scene obviously eased a lot. Everyone touched their heads and said that Xier was right. They really should thank the Saint.
After hearing this, Joan of Arc waved her hands and said:
"I didn't do anything, I was just doing what I was supposed to do."
Xi'er looked at Jeanne and ignored her, then spoke again:
"Miss Jeanne is willing to give up her position in the Vatican this time because of the oracle of the God of Light, or is it because she simply wants to save them?"
Jeanne hesitated for a moment but still spoke:
“Actually, this was all my own decision…”
"You all heard it, right? Joan of Arc didn't receive any oracle. She came to save you entirely on her own initiative. So you all should thank Miss Joan of Arc."
After Xier finished speaking, everyone on Joan of Arc's side put away their weapons and nodded frequently. Yes, what Miss Xier said was right.
"Indeed, we should thank Saint Joan of Arc."
"Yes, if it weren't for Saint Joan of Arc, we would have died in the war long ago."
"So all this fuss is because Miss Xi'er can't stand us constantly giving the credit for Saint Joan of Arc to others."
"It turns out that we misunderstood Miss Xier."
In this way, the style of the crowd became a little weird.
"Okay, Miss Jeanne, we've actually been getting off topic. Let's get back to the point. Miss Jeanne, do you know the foundation upon which the peace and tranquility you mentioned in Sapphire Territory is built?"
After Xier finished speaking, she looked at Joan of Arc, who shook her head blankly at this time.
“The deaths of civilians.”
After saying these five words, Joan of Arc's body trembled noticeably.
Xier didn't give Jeanne time to think, and directly told her about the former lords of Sapphire County, Shasi and Shasi.
After hearing this, Joan of Arc looked at Xier in silence for a long time. Was her idea wrong?
"Should I...shouldn't I have done this? But if I hadn't made these choices, the civilians of Sapphire Territory would have only suffered more harm!"
