Chapter 1411 “Saint” Jeanne (Part 2)

After hearing what Gill said, Jeanna's originally dull eyes regained some light.

"Um……"

The corners of Jeanna's mouth raised slightly, and a smile appeared on her face.

"As promised, you must send me home when the situation in the country stabilizes."

"...Yeah. I promise..."

…

…

The smile that appeared on Jeanne's face just now made the guilt in Gil's heart become even heavier...

After sending Jeanna out of the room and confirming that Jeanne had left, Gil punched the wall in front of him and wailed:

"hateful--!"

Jill knows the truth about everything.

I know why Barr wants to pin all the credit for repelling the Britannia army on Jeanne.

I know why Jeanne was inexplicably given the title of "Holy Maiden".

I also know that... I can't tell Jeanne all the truth.

Not only could she not tell Jeanna the truth about everything, but she also had to let Jeanna continue to stay in Orleans and in the army...

…

…

On the first day after defeating the Britannian Empire's 150,000-strong army and entering Orleans——

On his first day in Orleans, Barr quietly summoned his four remaining cronies to his room.

These four cronies are naturally Leo, Charles, Gill, and Eugene.

As soon as the four people arrived in Barr's room, Barr bluntly told the four people his plan...

…

…

"You want to make Jeanne... into a god?!"

Jill looked at Barr who just said this sentence with a look of astonishment.

"...That's right." Barr nodded with a sullen face, "We gave all the credit for defeating the Britannia Army to Jeanne alone, making everyone mistakenly believe that we defeated the entire Britannia Army. It’s all thanks to Jeanne alone.”

"And quietly create public opinion and give Jeanne an a resounding name."

"As for the name that I want to give to Jeanne, I have already thought about it - she will be called 'Saint'."

"Let the name 'Saint Jeanne' spread throughout the continent!"

"Let everyone in the entire continent know that our Luo Lin Empire has a super genius—'Saint Jeanne'!"

As soon as Barr finished speaking, Gil said urgently:

"Coach Barr! Why do you do this!"

"What's the point of praising Jeanne so highly?!"

"It's very useful!" Barr turned his sharp eyes towards Gill, "The reason why I decided to do this is to create a spiritual leader for our country's generals!"

"Spirit..." Eugene on the side said hesitantly, "Leader...?"

"Creating Jeanne as a 'savior' makes our country's generals think that our army now has a super genius who can lead them to win all kinds of wars."

Barr kept talking in an almost emotionless tone.

"Let our generals feel at ease and keep their morale and fighting spirit high - this is my ultimate goal."

Speaking of this, Bald paused.

Then he changed into a much more serious tone than before:

"The Britannia army suffered a huge defeat - do you think Emperor Ilsa of the Britannia Empire will be willing to accept such an outcome?"

"No way, right?"

Hearing Barr's words, Jill and others present unconsciously lowered their heads and lowered their shoulders.

"You should also know that the Britannia Army will definitely launch a second attack on our Rollin Empire."

"Although we won the last battle, what about the next battle? What about the next battle?"

"If we don't find a way to remedy this, this country will definitely perish!"

"So - I want to shape Jeanne into a 'savior' and a 'saint' who can save this country."

"Let the generals of our army feel at ease knowing that the 'Saint Lady' is here to guard them."

"Let the morale of our generals be high because of the presence of the 'Saint' at their command.

"

"As long as we can keep the morale of our generals high, we will have a better chance of winning when we face the Britannia Empire's next attack..."

"...Coach Barr...you mean..." Gil said solemnly, "Are you going to use Jeanna? Use Jeana as a tool that can save this country...?"

"..." Barr was silent.

There was no immediate answer to Gill's question.

After a while, he replied softly:

"I am willing to pay any price for this country..."

"After successfully dispelling the Britannia Empire's ambition to invade our country and restoring stability to the country, I will personally apologize to Jeanne."

"At that time, if you want to kill or behead, let Jeanna do whatever she wants..."

…

…

Barr wants to shape Jeanne into the "spiritual leader" of the entire army.

Therefore, he loudly announced to the citizens of Orleans that the defeat of the Britannia Army was the result of Jeanne alone.

The battle report sent to the central government also attributed all the credit to Jeanne alone.

And sent a large number of people there to spread the word that Jeanne was the chosen one who came to save their Luolin Empire, and she was a saint.

In other words - the reason why Jeanne was inexplicably given the title of "Saint" was because Barr was obstructing her.

Send a large number of people to spread the rumor that Jeanne is a "saint", so that this rumor is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Bal's "saint-making movement" is quite successful.

Not only the generals and soldiers of the whole army, but also the monarchs and ministers of the central government know that their Rolin Empire now has a "saint" Jeanne.

Queen Bella, who was overjoyed, gave Jeanne a large reward.

The generals and soldiers in the army felt relieved because they now had a "saint", and everyone was in high spirits.

They all firmly believed that with the "saint" sitting in the army, no matter what enemy can be defeated.

Almost everyone in the country was happy that their country had a "saint".

The only person who was unhappy might be Jeanne herself.

Jeanne felt uncomfortable and uneasy because she was inexplicably given a lot of military merits and the title of "saint" inexplicably...

And she had no one to confide in except her only acquaintance in the army, Jill, about her troubles.

The only person she could confide in, Jill, knew all the reasons why she had fallen into this situation.

But Jill couldn't tell the truth...

If the truth was told, I couldn't imagine how Jeanne would react.

Orleans... No, the Rollin Empire needs Jeanne now...

So... Jill didn't raise any objections except knowing that Barr wanted to "create a saint"...

Because compared to Jeanne's personal happiness, Jill still hoped that this country could continue to exist...

So Jill chose to conceal the truth.

He chose to hide it from Jeanne.

He chose to make Jeanne continue to bear this kind of pressure that she didn't have to bear.

He chose to constantly fight against the guilt in his heart.
