Chapter 1383: Change 2
Karna was thrown, but he kept his feet on the ground, trying to stop the impact by planting his feet on the asphalt concrete on the street.
However, the impact from that attack was so powerful that it dragged him almost 100 meters away before he stopped, causing the street to be destroyed.
Karna held his chest, which was slightly bent to the inside.
"....My armor doesn't have an effect?"
Even though his entire body was in pain and some of his ribs were broken, Karna only frowned, and didn't say anything afterward, however, the damage which was brought by Jeanne really shocked him, after all, his armor was really cheating Noble Phantasm.
Kavacha and Kundala.
It is the divine set of golden armor (Kavacha) and golden earring (Kundala) given to Karna by his mother, Kunti, as confirmation of his heritage.
Karna was born with armor integrated into his body, making him invulnerable throughout his life. It is a powerful defensive-type Noble Phantasm that emits the radiance of the sun itself. Due to the light itself taking shape, it is difficult for even the gods to destroy.
It is as thick as it looks, an invincible armor that protects against all harm, physical or conceptual. As long as it is active, all damage inflicted on Karna will be reduced to a tenth of its original value. He can fight others without worry as their attacks are negated by ninety percent, reducing even powerful blows to minor scratches that can be healed in the midst of battle.
It could be said that the existence of this armor was very cheating and it was also the reason why Indra decided to steal Karna's armor in the legend, showing how cheating this armor was.
However, even though he used this armor, the damage caused by Jeanne was bigger than he had thought.
It made him feel a bit dumbfounded and look at Jeanne incredulously, wondering what had happened.
"It's useless!"
Jeanne raised her holy battle flag high before pointing it toward Karna, showing that she wouldn't show mercy, and told Karna to prepare since this wasn't over, but even so, she still explained how she was able to attack him.
"I know that you have a Noble Phantasm which is able to protect you from any harm if it is under normal condition, I might not be able to harm you, and even fighting against you might be difficult, however... I am different now!"
Unlike the original story, Jeanne at this moment was different and she had become several times stronger.
Unlike normal servants who needed a Magic Power from their master to become stronger, Jeanne didn't need that since she was summoned by Holy Grail so she received her Magic Power directly from the Holy Grail which gave her a huge advantage over all servants in this Holy Grail war since they were being limited by the Magic Power of their master.
If the master of the servant was like Haru who had limitless energy then it might be possible to match Jeanne. Unfortunately, there was no second existence like Haru in this world.
The only thing that could be done by other masters was to use a trick such as a homunculus which was used by the Black Faction.
In other words, no matter what had happened and no matter what, Jeanne's status parameter wouldn't decrease no matter what and she could use her Noble Phantasm anytime without worrying about anything.
However, in this Holy Grail War, there was an anomaly that happened to Jeanne.
Jeanne couldn't appear in this world with a form of heroic spirit so she needed a body and attached her consciousness within that body so she could stay in this world and that body happened to be Shinobu's body.
If it was a normal human body, Jeanne's strength might not decrease, however, it was impossible to cause that much damage to Karna with that kind of body, but the body which she borrowed was from Shinobu.
In the story of Kimetsu no Yaiba, Shinobu was the weakest among Hashira in Demon Slayer Corps. After all, she couldn't even cut down the demon by using her sword, however, after she entered Group Chat, the quality of her body had become stronger.
Shinobu not only learned a lot of things, but she also received a lot of things that caused her body to become stronger.
Shinobu owned a lot of "stands" which caused her body to become very strong, she also learned "nen" under the guidance of Netero in the world of Hunter x Hunter, she also learned a "breathing technique", and then she also owned a devil fruit power which caused the quality of her body to become even stronger.
At this moment, Shinobu's existence on the Demon Slayer Crops was stronger than anyone else.
It was because Shinobu was surrounded by a lot of monsters that her power wasn't that noticeable among the members of Group Chat, however, she was very strong!
The quality of Shinobu's body was comparable to a servant itself or rather she might be even stronger and added that body with Jeanne's status parameter, the existence of Jeanne in this Holy Grail had become cheating.
Therefore, there was a huge change in Jeanne's status parameter.
Class: Ruler.
Master: ---
True Name: Jeanne D'Arc.
Alignment: Lawful Good.
Paramameter:
Strength: A+++
Endurance: A
Agility: EX
Mana: A+++
Luck: A+++
Noble Phantasm: EX
Class Skills:
Magic Resistance: EX Rank
At this rank, Jeanne can't be wounded even by Magecraft from the Age of Gods. However, this resistance only turns spells away from her. In other words, it doesn't negate them.
True Name Discernment: B Rank
When summoned as a Ruler, status information such as true identity, skill, and parameters is automatically revealed when she directly encounters a Servant.
God's Resolution: A-Rank
As a privilege of the Ruler Class, Jeanne d'Arc has two Command Spells that can be used for each Servant participating in the Holy Grail War. However, she cannot re-purpose other Command Spells that were previously used
Personal Skills:
Revelation: A-Rank
A Skill equivalent to "Instinct". Instinct is a sixth sense regarding battles, but "Revelation" accommodates all matters related to the achievement of a goal (for instance, choosing the most suitable path while traveling).
Charisma : C Rank
The natural talent to command an army. Joan's figure participating in the assaults hoisting a flag raised the morale of the soldiers to the limit and united the troops. Thanks to her charisma, it is possible to make others believe in the contents of the "revelations" without basis.
Saint: B Rank
Indicates being acknowledged as a saint. When summoned as a Servant, the ability of saint is selected one among "raising the effectiveness of sacraments", "automatic HP recovery", "1 Rank-Up to Charisma" and "production of a holy shroud" is possible.
Just by borrowing Shinobu's body, Jeanne became stronger than ever.
If Jeanne wanted, she could also use Shinobu's ability, however, the compatibility between Shinobu's ability and Karna was the worst since Shinobu's ability was mostly related to poison and Karna was a fire-related ability so Shinobu's ability couldn't be used that well in this battle.
However, Jeanne could still have other abilities and with Shinobu's advice, she could use Shinobu's ability very well.
"You might be one of the strongest servants in the Holy Grail, however, I can defeat you."
Jeanne stared at Karna with a serious expression and gave him a warning one more time.
"I will give you a chance, return now and stop this foolishness or I will really make you withdraw from Holy Grail war."
