One Hundred and Forty-Three Years of War

"Preparation for the spiritual transfer!"

"Preparation in progress!"

"Start to confirm the transfer object!" 

"Start confirming the transfer year!" 

"Reconfirm the value of the singularity!" 

"confirming!"

"The countdown begins!" 

In the command room, technicians one after another began to devote themselves to the operation of the instrument, making the atmosphere tense and full of enthusiasm. the

Rozen and Matthew stood in front of Roman, accepting Roman's explanation. the

"After the restoration of the spatial singularity f, we waited for Chaldea to trace back the past of human history through 's reconnaissance of , and thus discovered seven singularities."​​

It was rare for Roman to become serious, and he spoke in a serious manner. the

"These seven singularities are all decisive points of divergence that lead to changes in human history. If there is a mistake in them, even if there is only a slight deviation, human history will not be able to develop to the point where it is now. Now, the era where these points of divergence are located It was disturbed, and thus developed into a singularity, which led to the appearance of human incineration." 

"In order to regain the foundation of human reason, your ultimate goal is to restore all the seven singularities.

"

"Otherwise, the year 2020 will never come, and human beings will be destroyed after the end of 2019, and there will be no more luck."

After confirming the current situation, Roman explained the content of the mission.

"This time, you will be transferred by the spirit son to the one with the lowest fluctuation value among the seven singularities, and the time is France in 1431."

Both Luo Zhen and Matthew were slightly taken aback by Roman's words.

"1431...?"

"France…?"

The two looked at each other.

Because, in France in this era, there is one thing that will be the first to think of anyway.

"It seems that you have a little idea."

Roman took the performance of the two into his eyes, and smiled happily like an idiot parent who saw their child grow up.

"That's right, France in this era is still in the midst of the Hundred Years' War."

——— "Hundred Years' War".

It started in 1337 and ended in 1453. It lasted for more than a hundred years and is known as the longest war in the world.

The war was caused by Britain, France, and Burgundy who joined later. During this period, many new tactics and new weapons that were enough to be recorded in history were exhibited. In the end, France won the war and completed the national unity. It laid the foundation for future expansion in the continent of Europe, and England lost almost all of its French territories, but it also led to the rise of nationalism in England.

And during this Hundred Years' War, a famous hero in history—Joan of Arc was also born.

"She is the French hero who liberated Orleans from the Hundred Years' War, and she is also a Catholic saint, the most famous saint in the world. She set off from her hometown when she was seventeen, and led the The French army won a glorious victory that had never been seen in the past, and finally promoted the coronation of Charles VII, who had the right to inherit the throne, and laid the foundation for the victory of France."

Having said that, Roman made a sound with regret.

"Unfortunately, Joan of Arc was captured by the Duchy of Burgundy in a small conflict in Compiègne in 143o, and was bought by the English with a lot of money shortly afterwards. Sentenced for heresy and witch crimes, degraded as a witch, burned at the stake, and executed in public in Rouen, France. It was not until twenty years later that the English army was completely expelled from France that the Pope re-trialed Joan of Arc. The case was finally rehabilitated for her in 1456, and she was canonized as a saint by the Vatican five hundred years later, which will be recorded in history forever."

And such a saint was burned at the stake in 1431.

"The time of your spirit son transfer this time is not long after Joan of Arc was burned at the stake."

Roman reported this situation to Luo Zhen and Matthew.

"During this period of time, Charles VII should have signed an armistice treaty with Philip III who arrived in England. Although there are still some small frictions between the two countries, there is basically no major war at this time."

Of course, this is recorded in history.

Now that this era has developed into a singularity, it proves that something is wrong with it.

"Maybe, the war is still going on."

"Perhaps, Charles VII and Philip III, who were in charge of signing the armistice treaty, did not meet smoothly."

"It's more likely that some other country suddenly joined the war for some reason, which caused some changes in the war."

Roman enumerates the possibilities.

Regardless of the possibility, it will lead to a very bad anomaly in human history.

"Your main goal is to investigate this era, find out what is abnormal, and try to repair it."

Roman was silent for a moment, then spoke.

"Although I don't know what kind of abnormality it is, if it can be repaired, it is probably..."

Before he could finish his sentence, Luo Zhen snatched it away.

"Recycle and destroy the in this era, right?"

Luo Zhen's words made Matthew show a surprised expression.

"?"

Why are you mentioning the at this time?

Matthew was surprised by this.

But Roman nodded.

"Although it's just a guess, the appearance of the singularity should be related to the , just like the singularity in Fuyuki City."

That time, it was because Saber obtained the that did not belong to that era that led to the abnormal occurrence.

"It's probably the same this time, right?" Roman said, "If there is no miracle at the level of the to intervene, it is not an easy thing to change history and have an impact on human history."

and…

"Moreover, there is no doubt that there is a mastermind behind the burning of human rights."

Roman's words awakened Matthew's memory.

"Professor Rafe..."

Matthew whispered the name.

It was this person who caused the emergence of Fuyuki City's singularity, and even caused Chaldea to suffer huge losses and almost collapsed directly.

"And the of Fuyuki City is still in the hands of Leif Lenore, and the appearance of the seven singularities of Humanity Incineration is inseparable from him. Then, imagine that he will be the same as when he was in Fuyuki City. Which existence is endowed by the has the highest possibility of turning that era into a singularity."

Roman spoke very seriously.

"Therefore, in the process of investigating the singularity, you must pay attention to the information related to the , recover or destroy the that caused the singularity to appear."

This is the task of this spirit transfer.

"The above is all the instructions for this mission."

Roman's eyes swept over Rozen and Matthew one after another.

"This time, we, Chaldea, will fully support you, and we will definitely not let you fight alone like in Fuyuki City."

"Maybe we can't provide you with much combat resources, but please feel free to leave the rear support to us."

"For this reason, we also invited "that one", so please look forward to it. "

Roman's explanation ends here.

Luo Zhen was moved in his heart.

"that one?"

Could it be...

"alright."

Just when Luo Zhenxin had an idea in his heart, Roman gave orders.

"Now enter the and prepare for the transfer of spirit particles."
