Chapter 1441 You're too good for me
Haru didn't mind going on a date, especially when it had been a few days since he had met Shinobu when they came to this world.
However, such a situation was normal, considering their situation was, Haru was a master and Shinobu was a Ruler, so it was normal for them to not meet each other, especially when there were a lot of violations that happened in this Holy Grail War.
Shinobu, whose body was being borrowed by Jeanne, was very busy.
Haru was happy when Shinobu asked him for a date, and Raikou, even though, she was a bit annoyed, thought of this as training since Raikou knew that Haru had a lot of women in his world.
If Raikou couldn't control herself when she came to Haru's world then it would be a disaster. In the end, she followed him, however, she stayed in her astral form all the time. She was also curious how he was going to bring Shinobu on a date.
However, this date was different from what they had imagined since the one that he was about to go on a date at this moment wasn't Shinobu, but Jeanne.
"Wait, Shinobu! What do you mean!?" Jeanne was panicked when Shinobu suddenly changed with herself so abruptly.
"You might as well taste what the date is," Shinobu said.
"What?!"
Jeanne was even more panicked when she heard Shinobu's words.
Meanwhile, Haru and Raikou were also stunned when they saw Shinobu suddenly change into Shinobu.
Raikou wanted to say something, but Haru was the one who asked first, "Shinobu, what do you mean?"
"I...."
Jeanne was stumped and she didn't know what to say. She blushed and said, "She... She told me to have a date with you..." However, when she saw Haru's reaction, she also lowered her head at this moment, wondering whether she was unattractive that he didn't have an interest in herself.
"........"
Haru, of course, noticed Jeanne's reaction, and quickly said, "Ruler, can I call you Jeanne?"
"Yes."
Jeanne nodded softly.
"Can I talk with Shinobu first?" Haru asked.
"Well..." Jeanne talked with Shinobu for a while then Shinobu appeared once again.
"What's wrong? Jeanne is a beautiful girl, right? Don't you like beautiful girls? You have dated, dated Raikou, what's wrong with Jeanne?"
After Shinobu appeared, she asked Haru several questions since she didn't understand how he didn't seem to have an interest in having a date with Jeanne.
Raikou was silent and wondered what Haru was about to say.
"I mean, I have to admit that Jeanne is a beautiful girl. If I had been born a century ago in the countryside, and by chance met her, then I might not have hesitated to propose to her directly," Haru said truthfully.
Jeanne, who heard Haru's words from inside Shinobu's body, blushed and felt a bit shy.
Raikou raised her eyebrow, but she didn't come out from her astral mode.
However, Shinobu was confused and asked, "Then why? Why don't you want to have a date with her?"
"I mean, I have you and Raikou here, and even if Jeanne is a beautiful girl, she's after all not my girlfriend. I can't ignore you and have a date with a girl that's not even my girlfriend. I might be scum, but I am not trash."
Haru had to admit that Jeanne was a very sweet girl from his conversation with her a few days ago, however, at the same time, their relationship wasn't that close after all.
Even Jeanne might feel attracted to him because of the memory that she shared with Shinobu, Haru couldn't do that since there was both Shinobu and Raikou beside him. He also hadn't taken both of them on a date yet he was going to take another girl that he had only known for few days to a date, ignoring both of them.
Even if Haru was scum, he still had his limit.
It might be weird, but it might be because of the holy aura around Jeanne that he had always felt weird somehow. He always had this bad mind, thinking what would happen when he tainted this saintess, but he quickly suppressed such a thought since he felt that he shouldn't do that.
Raikou and Shinobu smiled sweetly when they heard his words.
Jeanne also felt relieved somehow since she knew that it wasn't because she didn't have a charm, but it was because of another reason. When she thought about it, she also thought that Shinobu's decision was a bit too abrupt since she was wondering how Shinobu could tell her boyfriend to have a date with her.
"Shinobu, you should be the one that has...."
However, before Jeanne finished her words.
"That's good, then I don't need to worry that you're going to take advantage of Jeanne now." Shinobu nodded with a smile and showed a cute expression. "Haru... Jeanne wants to know the date, can you show her? Please....."
"......"
Raikou and Jeanne were speechless.
Haru twitched his lips and tried to look away since Shinobu was so cute and he was afraid to accept her request directly. He took a deep breath and said, "I want to have a date with you."
"We can go on a date anytime, but Jeanne only has this moment since the Holy Grail might be over soon..." Shinobu kept staring at Haru with a puppy-like expression.
"...Yes."
"Good!"
Shinobu didn't waste time and changed to Jeanne so quickly.
"......."
Haru and Jeanne looked at each other for a moment.
"I... I'm sorry, I;. that you have to have a date with me..." Jeanne lowered her head and felt a bit depressed at that moment.
Haru was a bit stunned since he didn't expect Jeanne to have such low-esteem, but then again, he also understood that Jeanne probably didn't have time to taste the love.
Jeanne entered the battle when she was 17 and then she died when she was 19. Her experience in war might be abundant and she could be said to be a veteran, but in love, she was a newbie.
"Why do you need to apologize?" Haru asked.
"I mean... you want to have a date with Shinobu, right? But you have to have a date with me, I am sure that it's going to be unpleasant for you," Jeanne said while glancing at Haru.
"What? Unpleasant? If I dare to say that then without a doubt, I might be killed," Haru said in an exaggerated way.
"Huh? Why?" Jeanne looked up and asked him curiously, forgetting all the depression that she felt before.
"Jeanne, you're a very cute girl after all and you have a lot of fans. If they know that I feel unhappy when I have a date with you then they might wake up from their graveyard and haunt me, preaching to me that you're too good for me," Haru said with a smile.
Jeanne snorted, but smiled, hearing his words.
"Well, if it's the people of England who heard my deeds then they might praise me," Haru said with a bad smile.
Jeanne couldn't help but punch him at that moment, clearly knowing that he was making fun of her.
"Don't tease me!"
"My bad, my bad..." Haru then caught Jeanne's fist that hit his chest naturally and said, "But really, you're so cute that I want to tease you." He looked at Jeanne and the more he looked, the more he realized how cute this girl was.
Being stared directly, Jeanne lowered her head and blushed again.
"......."
Raikou and Shinobu, who were watching what had happened between Haru and Jeanne, knew that it was only a time for Jeanne to fall for this big devil.
