You couldn't have picked a worse example than Joan of Arc. The very reason why she had to be tried by the church as a heretic, was because the support she had was so overwhelming, the claims of a 19 year old girl about God telling her to liberate France, was an actual threat to the claims of the British crown. The mythos surrounding the girl was so great, the guy who executed her was terrified, thinking he was going to hell for killing a saint, and the backlash for her execution was so big, that after her retrial, the bishop responsible for her execution was excommunicated, his remains being buried in an unmarked tomb without the fanfare his position would have demanded, as if the French population still hadn't forgiven him.

yeah but they did give them a long time to give the ransom to return her back but the french didn't give two shit about it not to mention nobody tried to help help her out even thou she was burned in the middle of the town
yes their claim of her being a witch was debunked but still that doesn't change the fact that nobody thought it may be worth it to save her

That only lends more credibility to my initial statement. The one who had the duty to pay for her ransom was Charles VII, not the peasants or soldiers, and it's speculated that the reason he didn't immediately go to her aid was precisely because he felt threatened by her influence over the people. It was him who failed Joan, not the common folk. Plus, the English weren't going to let her go that easily either. They wanted her dead after being labeled as a heretic, as shown in her brutally unfair trial.

And as seen in her retrial, most of the people who knew her, be it peasants, soldiers, even the ones who had been in the tribunal against her, had nothing but praise towards her.

But the french king couldn't kill her by his authority (if he felt that way ) unlike this manga which bring me back to my original argument why didn't they send them to a losing battle and cut their supply
also I think the french thought of Joan as a disposable soldier that bringing her back with that much money wouldn't be worth it since you know females have limit to the authority that they could gather so she'll never dream to replace the king if anything the church would be the one who would felt more threatened since she seemed to want to introduce another sub religion of christianity that would probably limit the pope lavish life

> Why didn't they send them to a losing battle and cut their supply
Because the king needed them to win, and he couldn't just get them tragically killed while sacrificing the part of the army that went to support them, since if he failed, he'd just be risking giving the hero an excuse to make a coup. Again, public perception is a big thing. You can't simply kill someone who months ago was saving villages from monsters, without a huge backlash from those she saved.

>Also I think the french thought of Joan as a disposable soldier that bringing her back with that much money wouldn't be worth it
Again, you're mistaking the opinion of the general populace to those of the ruling monarch, and even then, your opinions are kinda misinformed. By all historical accounts, Joan was loved by the people, seen as a saint by the french, and especially the army. Even the dauphin Charles VII was no exception, since it was him who pushed for her retrial years later. The bishop who unfairly condemned her, Pierre Cauchon, was excommunicated after the Vatican was notified because he used the trial to get in good graces with the English crown, and was definitely not working for the church as you claim. The only ones who wanted Joan dead were the English, because her claims of God wanting to liberate France through her went against what they believed was their god given right to rule France, and her being recognized as a saint would have put that right into question.

Hmmm, so that's why with FF XIII the franchise started to die.

Out of all the revenge manga I've read this one is looking to be one of the most satisfying for some reason. Maybe because the MC is just going off hard from the start.
