The golden light quickly dissipated. Leticia, who was previously wearing casual clothes, was now clad in silver-white light armor, with a sword at her waist and a holy flag in her hand. She then pointed the spear tip of the holy flag at the mysterious person whose face was unknown, and shouted: "Servant · Ruler. You have the aura of a Heroic Spirit on you. Who exactly are you!? Why would you be so cruel to an ordinary person!?"
This was Jeanne, the Ruler-class Servant. Upon discovering Leticia was in danger, she immediately took control of the body to deal with the current crisis.
However, in response to Jeanne's words, the other party did not speak. Instead, they drew a small knife, and then their figure vanished from Jeanne's sight.
"Presence Concealment… Assassin? If you think you can ambush me like this, you are gravely mistaken!" Jeanne swung the flagpole in her hand, thrusting the spear tip in a certain direction.
"Clang—!"
The sound of metal clashing immediately rang out. In the previously empty space, a figure distortedly appeared. The Servant who had vanished earlier was now holding the freshly drawn small knife, clashing and stalemating with Jeanne's thrusting spear tip.
"You won't answer my question? Fine! Then I'll find out myself! True Name Discernment—!!!" Jeanne was about to use her class skill to discern the opponent's true identity, but at that moment, the opponent immediately took a step back and continuously fired at her. A volley of bullets forced Jeanne to rotate her flagpole to deflect all of them.
However, the unknown Servant used the cover to retreat rapidly, disappearing from Jeanne's sight in a flash. Jeanne originally wanted to pursue and forcibly control the Servant with the class skill [Divine Judgment], but thinking of Wang Chong who had fallen down the cliff, she could only give up the pursuit and instead chose to jump down the cliff to find Wang Chong.
Although hope was very slim, she at least couldn't give up. Jeanne thought so.
...
Somewhere in the gully, after Wang Chong drew a Heroic Spirit summoning circle with his blood, he lay down beside it and began to release the divine aura attached to his [Goddess's Favor B], waiting for someone to take the bait. As for the bullets he had just taken, although they hurt quite a bit, they were nothing serious and were quickly healed by his Ruinous Power.
"Host, what are you up to now? With your Spider Sense ability and physical skill blessings, those bullets shouldn't be able to break your defense at all. And why are you drawing a Heroic Spirit summoning circle now?" The System asked curiously.
"Originally, I planned to forcibly control Jeanne with Ruinous Power, but now I've changed my mind," Wang Chong said.
"Changed your mind?" The System asked, surprised.
"Yes, I have Kiritsugu to thank for shooting me, otherwise I wouldn't have suddenly thought of such an idea," Wang Chong said.
"Was it Kiritsugu who attacked just now? That's impossible, didn't the news say he was still at the Einzbern castle in Germany?"
"No, this Kiritsugu is not that Kiritsugu. He is a masterless Servant sent by the Counter Force, specifically to kill me." Wang Chong shook his head and said, "Hmph, I knew the Counter Force wouldn't just leave Jeanne as their only move. To completely eliminate me, the root cause, they even sent their professional lackey. But it's also good, it allows me to properly scheme against the Counter Force's move."
"Rustle… rustle…"
The sound of rustling grass and trees echoed, and at the same time, a woman's voice could be heard: "Strange, why is there an aura similar to a divine Servant down here? And the blood trail also extends here. Could Shirou-kun have encountered a new Servant?"
"They've taken the bait, time to reel them in." At this moment, Wang Chong also released his black mist, though not too much, only attaching it to his body, especially the original wounds. Then, he manipulated one of the specters to do something to himself.
"What are these black mists…!! Shirou-kun! Who are you, and what do you want to do to him!?" A delicate shout rang out, followed by a flagpole stabbing towards the specter that was stepping on him.
"Come in!" Wang Chong muttered, and the specter merged into Wang Chong's body. The flagpole naturally struck empty air.
"Shirou-kun, are you alright?" A somewhat anxious voice rang out. Wang Chong narrowed his eyes, and what appeared in his vision was that familiar Takeuchi face… ahem, the familiar face of Jeanne. Jeanne helped Wang Chong up and began to check his physical condition, preparing to inject magic power to try and heal Wang Chong's body.
"Huh? Those fatal wounds have actually healed. What exactly is going on…? And why does Shirou-kun have the aura of a divine Servant on him? These black mists… what's going on with their power?" Jeanne noticed something was off and examined him carefully, also noticing that the strange black mists were emanating from Wang Chong's body. And the wounds on Wang Chong's body were also covered by these black mists. It seemed that because of these black mists, Wang Chong was able to survive.
"This is… a Command Seal? Shirou is actually a Master in this Holy Grail War. I didn't notice it before because he was wearing gloves… But the Holy Grail War hasn't even officially begun, so why would a Servant ambush another Master? And that Servant clearly heard me declare my Ruler class and still tried to attack… Could this be the reason for my manifestation?" Then, Jeanne noticed Wang Chong's hand, which had its glove removed, and there was a conspicuous red Command Seal on the back of his hand, proving his Master identity. Jeanne recalled what had just happened and began to evaluate the incident in her mind.
Wang Chong felt it was about time, so he began to flutter his eyelids, feigning awakening.
"Shirou-kun, you're awake. How are you feeling?" Seeing Wang Chong wake up, Jeanne seemed relieved and quickly asked.
"It hurts so much… What happened to me…? Leticia, what's with your appearance?" Wang Chong feigned a dazed expression and said.
"Don't worry about me first, Shirou-san, do you feel better now? Is there anything unusual with your body?" Jeanne quickly asked.
"Although it hurts a lot, I feel like there's no major problem, at least I won't die," Wang Chong gasped, then, as if remembering something, he said, "What about that guy who shot me earlier? Is he still around?"
"He has temporarily escaped. Don't worry, Shirou-san, with me here, you don't have to worry about him attacking again," Jeanne let out a sigh of relief, then said, "Since your body is fine, allow me to introduce myself first. As you can see, I am a bit different from Leticia. My name is Jeanne, summoned by the great holy grail as a Ruler class. Since Wang Chong-san has Command Seals, you should know about the Holy Grail War, right?"
"Holy Grail War… Jeanne… You're a Servant?" At this moment, Wang Chong also feigned a look of sudden realization and immediately said.
"That's right, I am a Servant, but a bit different. I am a Servant born by possessing Leticia's body. However, before, Leticia's will was temporarily dominant, and I would appear in times of danger to take her place. After that, this body will be under my will," Jeanne nodded and said.
"Then, what's going on with Shirou-kun? Why were you assassinated by that other Servant? Also, how did the wounds on your body heal? Why is there a Servant's aura in your body? What's going on with the power of these black mists?"
After Jeanne finished speaking, she seemed to realize she had asked too many questions, so she added, "Don't rush, just answer me one by one. As the Ruler of the Holy Grail War, it is my duty to ensure the Holy Grail War operates normally. Because what happened to Shirou-kun and the conditions on your body are too strange, I want to investigate these matters thoroughly."
"That Servant… I'm not sure, but I seem to have a bullet he shot into my body. Perhaps I can find that Servant with this." Wang Chong displayed the bullet in his hand. Jeanne took the bullets, examined them carefully, then put them into her pocket and said, "Alright, I'll keep a close eye on that Servant. Now, Shirou-kun, how did your injuries heal?"
"You wait… let me think about it carefully." Wang Chong pretended to be deep in thought, while mentally calculating the explanation he had just come up with. "I've already set the stage, so I believe Jeanne should listen to my words, and combined with what she just saw, she should mistakenly think that my situation is exactly the same as a certain demi-Servant, or rather, a certain homunculus. Hmph, since I've already taken Amakusa's script, it's not too much for me to take a Sieg script now, is it?"
