"The Ripper".

. "

"Victory, Yggdrasil, the Sagara family, a long-cherished wish..."

As her consciousness faded and she drifted into a daze, the woman heard the man's last words.

"Feel the glory, Rokudou Reika, you will become the sacrifice for my Yggdrasil clan to reach the pinnacle. The moment you die will be the moment my Servant descends!"

Those were words that those who were not connected with the mysterious were destined to never understand, but even if she couldn't understand them, the woman named 'Rokudo Reika' could still sense the thick aura of death approaching her little by little.

So that's how it is. Am I going to die? she thought.

There was no great struggle or resentment, only a fleeting regret.

After her family fell into decline, her life became nothing more than a living corpse, mechanically eating and sleeping, living as someone's mistress or appendage, nothing more.

For her, death might also be a relief.

But if I may...

"Shut it down, shut it down, shut it down, shut it down, shut it down."

"However, moments of overflowing must be overcome."

Announce.

"You are my subordinate, and I entrust my fate to your sword."

"Obey the call of the Holy Grail. If you follow this will and the principles of Heaven, answer immediately!"

Amidst the man's fervent, hymn-like chanting, Liu Daolingxia saw light. A mysterious light enveloped her, keeping her conscious while simultaneously making her acutely aware that her life was slipping away bit by bit, causing her immense torment.

Amidst indescribable pain, Liu Daolingxia's long-dormant will to live gradually resurfaced.

I still... don't want to die.

Although I have little attachment to this world and dislike being kept by someone and living a muddled life.

But I still don't want to die, I want to live!

I don't want to die, I don't want to die, I don't want to die!

Someone save me! Someone...someone save me!

I want to live! I really want to live!

As the blood in my body decreased, the warmth emanating from the floor increased, eventually transforming into a scorching heat instead of warmth.

The woman, covered in wounds, lay on the burning ground, as if offering a burnt offering to the gods.

Liu Daolingxia knew that death was drawing ever closer.

Do you want to live?

On her deathbed, a thought, like a hallucination, reached the depths of Liu Daolingxia's heart, forcing her to give her most sincere answer.

"I...I want to live!"

[Regardless of the cost?]

"No matter the cost!" The will to survive surged within her. Although Liu Daolingxia couldn't utter a sound, her heart cried out like never before, "Save me! If anyone is here, please save me!"

【Very good! So, for the rest of your life—】

The words in his mind dissipated, replaced by the crashing walls and a sliver of cold light hurtling towards Sagara Hyoma.

"It's all mine!"

As the contract was reached, Sakugetsu waved his right hand, separating Sagara Hyoma's head from his body, while his left hand wove a healing spell to restore Rokudou Reika, who was on the verge of fainting due to excessive blood loss.

puff.

Sagara Hyoma's head fell to the ground, his expression not even having time to show surprise. As a Master in the Holy Grail War, he never imagined that someone would kill him the moment he summoned a Servant.

The displacement space opened, and Sakugetsu sank Sagara Hyoma's corpse into Tokyo Bay. However, his eyes were fixed on the increasingly bright summoning circle. After hesitating for a long time, he finally canceled the destruction magic in his hand and sighed.

"Too late..."

For the sake of future plans, Sakugetsu could not cause a big commotion at the Sagara residence. After pinpointing Sagara Hyoma's location, he spent a great deal of effort cracking the Sagara family's magic workshop.

The meager magical power caused Shuoyue great suffering; she had to rest after solving a section, and by the time she found this place, it was too late.

“So, the will to shake the ‘catalyst’ can’t affect the summoning ritual itself after all.” With this sigh, Shuoyue remained expressionless, her fist already clenched.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, the eleventh form of Jack the Ripper will appear in this magic circle. We must capture her before she unleashes her Fog Night and Information Erasure skills, otherwise, if the Servant escapes, it will have unpredictable consequences for the future, which is not a result that Shuoyue is willing to see.

As the pure light of the summoning dissipated, a petite figure appeared in the center of the magic circle. Like a newly hatched baby animal, she looked around curiously before fixing her gaze on Shuoyue. In a naive and childlike voice, she called out:

"Mother?"

Chapter 386 Jack the Ripper and Six-Director Lingxia

Chapter 387 Jack the Ripper and Six-Director Lingxia

Before Shuoyue appeared a little girl, petite in stature and with delicate features.

This was an incredibly adorable child. She wore a cloak that covered her entire body, her ear-length silver hair was slightly disheveled, and her icy blue eyes sparkled in the dim room, making her look like a little kitten. Her clear eyes, paired with her delicate nose and exquisite mouth, evoked a feeling of tenderness and affection.

Seeing a little girl calling "Mommy" in such a dependent voice would surely trigger maternal instincts in any woman.

Unfortunately, it wasn't time for Shuoyue to be turned into a girl yet. Although he was an assassin, he wasn't a Love Live! fan like Leon, so the young man simply gripped the gun handle and shook his head indifferently.

"Sadly, no."

As soon as she finished speaking, the lovely girl slid her hand along the inside of her thigh, and two silver daggers slid into her palm, rushing towards Shuoyue.

Without a doubt, these two daggers were aimed at vital points, and their placement was precise and decisive. Anyone with slightly weaker strength would probably not even have time to resist before losing their life instantly.

Unfortunately, Jack encountered the new moon, a Servant who had descended and possessed the ferocious martial art of 'Bajiquan'.

Slide step, punch, counter-grapple.

In no time, Shuoyue disarmed the girl. With her left hand still enchanted with healing magic, she held the disobedient little servant in her arms with just one hand, preventing her from moving.

"Ugh, let me go, let me go!"

The girl groaned and struggled desperately. However, the difference in strength was too great. No matter how hard the girl tried, Shuoyue's left hand was as if it were made of steel and remained motionless.

During the intense movements, the girl's cloak slipped off, leaving her uncovered. Shuoyue could clearly see several scabbards hanging near her waist, but she wasn't wearing a skirt. Furthermore, the tight-fitting, cropped top she wore, which resembled more strips of cloth than clothing, gave the young girl a seductive, provocative air, almost like that of a prostitute.

"Who could have imagined that Jack the Ripper, who descended to earth as a class, would be nothing more than a collection of the resentment of tens of thousands of abandoned children, nothing more."

Jack the Ripper, a world-renowned serial killer, murdered five women (all prostitutes). Despite Scotland Yard's relentless pursuit, he was never apprehended and vanished without a trace, becoming an enduring dark legend in London.

This is a very special Heroic Spirit. His true form is unknown, and it changes depending on his class or the land he inhabits. As for the Holy Grail, unless the "real Jack the Ripper" is established, the Jack the Ripper summoned will continue to change.

The one appearing in class is a seemingly harmless silver-haired loli who is actually ruthless in her attacks.

In this young Jack's life story, she is the vengeful spirit of many children aborted by prostitutes in London's Whitechapel district. She dies after killing several prostitutes. There is no particular reason for this; it's just that a magician sensed that this series of bizarre murders was the work of a demonic entity, so he dealt with her early on, and Jack the Ripper disappeared into the darkness.

"There is no poignant past, no thought-provoking experiences; it is merely the story of a serial killer, spawned by the world, being killed by a magician, nothing more."

Shuoyue responded with a cold sneer to the girl's tragic experiences and the somber atmosphere of London at that time. Upon hearing this, the girl, or rather, little Jack, protested in dissatisfaction.

“We’re not bad kids, we just want to go back into our mother’s tummy.”

"However, the smaller the wish, the easier it is to be trampled and distorted." Shuoyue responded coldly, ignoring Xiao Jack's fierce struggle, and began to think about what to do next.

The summoning of Jack the Ripper was purely accidental. Although it does not affect the fact that Sakumoku summoned her as the 'Blue' Master, what to do with her is still a problem.

Should we send her back to the Throne of Heroes, or should we, in order to increase the possibility of victory, recognize her as... no, as our goddaughter, find an opportunity to bring Atalanta and Joan of Arc together, and then have Jack the Ripper commit suicide to ignite their conflict, so as to fish in troubled waters?

Shuoyue hadn't realized how serious his mental decline was, but before he could make a decision, he felt the struggle in his hands gradually weaken.

give up?

Somewhat surprised, I looked down and saw that Little Jack had stopped resisting, his icy blue eyes staring straight ahead at the third person in the room.

This refers to Liu Daolingxia, a woman who had just finished treatment and was slowly regaining consciousness from the dizziness caused by blood loss.

With a soft nasal sound, Liu Daolingxia gradually regained consciousness.

The moment she opened her eyes, she saw a girl with a childlike innocence. Her icy blue eyes, like crystals, reflected her childhood, that innocent and carefree age.

Liu Daolingxia was a well-mannered young lady in her childhood, but due to the death of her parents in an accident, her life began to decline under various factors, and she became a prostitute and was kept by a man.

As a result, the man named Sagara Hyoma did not spare her either, and used her as a sacrifice in a magic ritual.

Falling into the dust, barely able to climb out, Liu Daolingxia looked at the girl in front of her as if gazing at her own precious time that would never return, and couldn't help but reach out her hand.

Perhaps it was the nature of Liu Daolingxia's profession that suited Xiao Jieke, or perhaps it was some mysterious compatibility, but as Xiao Jieke gazed at the extremely vulnerable woman, he murmured unconsciously.

"Mother."

She wants a mother, wants to leave this world, and want to return to her mother's womb, no longer to be born as an abandoned baby.

This is Jack the Ripper's obsession as a vengeful spirit, and also her test—the prostitutes in London, England, whose abdomens she had cut open, were physically returned to their 'mother's wombs' because they chose to refuse or showed doubt.

Having lived as an ordinary person until now, Liu Daolingxia had no idea how dangerous the situation was. If she made even the slightest normal reaction, the little girl she thought was innocent and naive would wield a dagger and dismember her.

The new moon, however, remained a detached observer.

Assassins have no emotions; they only have a scale in their hearts. If Liu Daolingxia gains Xiao Jie's approval, he will naturally lend a helping hand.

Conversely, if a woman fails the test, no matter how beautiful she is, he will only send her back to the Throne of Heroes after Jack the Ripper kills her.

Fortunately, Liu Daolingxia did not let herself down; she successfully seized the only opportunity.

Although she was kept by Sagara Hyoma, the magician only used her as a prop, and they were separated most of the time, with little chance of sharing a bed, let alone becoming mothers.

However, for some reason, the moment the girl called out "Mom," the softest part of Liu Daolingxia's heart was touched. All she wanted to do was hold the girl in her arms, care for her, and protect her.

With genuine affection in her heart, Liu Daolingxia opened her arms to Xiao Jieke without any suspicion and gently embraced her.

"Yes, that's fine. I'll be your mom."

The instant Liu Daolingxia answered, Shuoyue clearly saw Xiao Jack's eyes widen in disbelief, then his mouth pursed, his icy blue eyes welled up with tears, and he nestled into Liu Daolingxia's arms like a swallow returning to its nest, rubbing against her full breasts.

"Mommy, Mommy~ Jack found Mommy~"

Jack the Ripper was a serial killer who took the lives of five prostitutes.

Everyone says so, but if you tear off the mask of pretense, the so-called Ripper is nothing more than a child who can't find his way home.

No one was willing to lend her a helping hand.
