"Servant Caster, true name, Xuanzang."
Daniel pointed to Sanzang and introduced her to everyone.
Instantly, the looks of suspicion disappeared.
If asked who the famous monks in various countries were, the people present could certainly throw out a few names.
But if speaking of a monk with extremely widespread fame throughout the world.
Then Xuanzang Sanzang's fame would definitely rank among the top.
After all, the fame of "Journey to the West" is definitely not inferior to any book in the world.
And as the master in the main protagonist group, Sanzang Fashi's fame naturally would not be low.
"So, you intend to have her chant scriptures for that brat over there?" Mordred pointed at Jack the Ripper and asked Daniel, "Is that brat comparable to the resentment of tens of thousands of infants who have yet to find release?"
"No, in essence, this Jack the Ripper before us is itself a collection of the resentment of those children." Daniel shrugged and explained.
"What a joke." Shishigou Kairi sneered, frowning, "If Jack the Ripper is really as you say, a collection of the resentment of tens of thousands of infants, then how could she only be of this scale?"
In Shishigou Kairi's cognition, if it were really as Daniel said, then Jack the Ripper would undoubtedly possess a spirit core scale far exceeding his Servant Saber, Mordred.
"Because she hasn't grown up yet," Daniel added, "After killing several women engaged in sex work, Jack the Ripper was early on taken care of by a Magus who realized that this series of bizarre murders came from a demonic existence."
"After all, one must conceal the existence of magic," Daniel spread his hands and looked at Shishigou Kairi, "In this regard, that Magus saved the people of London without even knowing it."
Otherwise, a fully grown collection of the resentment of tens of thousands of infants would absolutely be able to swallow half of London, and then be completely wiped out under the intervention of the Clock Tower.
One can only say that the place where Jack the Ripper was born was not right.
Who told her to start working right near the Clock Tower, the headquarters of the Mage's Association.
That Magus was probably at the rank of Brand or above.
Jack the Ripper had been silent from the very beginning.
Even though the essence of her existence had been revealed, she hadn't said a word.
She just stared straight at Rikudou Reika.
Her master, her... Mother!
How could she save Mother and then escape under these circumstances?
Thus, the thick fog that had been dispersed by the aftermath of the battle rose once again.
"Cough, cough, cough!" Shishigou Kairi, who noticed something was wrong immediately, took off his coat and covered his mouth and nose.
Mordred flashed to her master's side, then hoisted him up and prepared to run.
Although the thick fog had no effect on her, it didn't seem very friendly to her master.
As for Daniel...
Glancing at the boy who looked like nothing was wrong, Mordred pursed her lips, thinking that her Father must be behind this!
"Ha!" With a delicate shout, golden light suddenly burst out from behind Sanzang, dispersing the thick fog.
Jack, who had already lunged to a spot not far in front of Jeanne, was exposed, and had to stop advancing, leaping and tumbling to the other side.
Mordred, who was running, stopped her steps and looked at Sanzang with gloomy eyes.
Use it early if you can, don't wait until everyone's run away, okay?
Daniel also glanced at her.
Dispelling fog... does Buddhism teach this too?
"How about it, Jack-chan, stand obediently in place and don't move, let big sister Sanzang here chant a few scriptures for you, wash away your resentment, and then send you to be reincarnated into a mother's womb again, how is that?"
"You can return to 'Mother's' womb, and be born as a newborn."
"It's just that I can't guarantee whether the mother you are reincarnated into can become a qualified, good mother."
After all, modern society is quite chaotic.
And reincarnation is a technical job; if you don't have connections up there, it's hard to control.
"Can I return to Mother's 'womb'?" Struck at the most critical point, Jack the Ripper looked up at Daniel.
Although she had good compatibility with Rikudou Reika, and she quite liked this mother, but if she could return to the womb... a master, it seemed, wasn't impossible to discard.
However, this mother is also very nice.
"Can I specify the target for reincarnation?" Jack the Ripper suppressed her restless nature and looked up at Sanzang, asking.
"No." Sanzang shook her head and answered, "All I can do is wash away your resentment and sins, and snatch a good spot for your reincarnation. Let alone specifying the target, I can't even specify the species."
After all, she, Sanzang, is just an ordinary monk, not Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva.
"Will Jack-chan find happiness?" Rikudou Reika suddenly asked.
"I don't know." Daniel shrugged and answered first, "After all, 'happiness' is a conceptual and staged thing."
"Perhaps you have a happy childhood, but after childhood passes, you start to feel unhappy. This kind of emotional thing cannot remain unchanged forever."
"The only thing we can give Jack is a chance."
"Jack-chan, I remember that the wish you wanted to make to the Holy Grail was to return to your mother's womb, right?" Rikudou Reika looked at Jack the Ripper and asked.
Jack the Ripper did not answer, but silently nodded.
No, rather, she could no longer give an answer now.
Just now, Daniel and Sanzang's words had triggered her switch, and the 'her' that occupied Jack the Ripper's consciousness was no longer the one from before.
It was one, or a few, of the tens of thousands of children's consciousnesses.
"Then, this is the best opportunity. Even without the Holy Grail, you can get a chance to realize your wish." Rikudou Reika showed a loving smile and looked at Jack the Ripper.
Although she couldn't understand why the famous Sanzang Fashi would be a woman... but since Jack the Ripper could descend in a female form, why would it be impossible for Sanzang Fashi to be a woman?
Moreover, when that golden light just now swept across her body, Rikudou Reika felt something like 'maternal love' that she hadn't felt for a long time.
That was a sense of happiness she hadn't experienced since her parents passed away.
"Jack-chan, will you accept it?"
Jack the Ripper stared straight at Rikudou Reika, then nodded heavily.
This was the collective consensus of tens of thousands of vengeful spirits.
They yearned to return to the womb!
They yearned to be born!
Although they did not know who Sanzang was, and could not understand even the common sense forcibly instilled into their minds, 'Mom' believed that this person could fulfill their craving.
They were willing to trust 'Mom'.
Because 'Mom' had always loved 'them' properly.
"Then, how do you need us to cooperate with you?" Rikudou Reika turned her head and asked Jeanne d'Arc and Sanzang.
It was not the young man who looked somewhat frivolous, whose gaze was always scanning her, who seemed a bit like a virgin, and who was being protected by these two Servants that she believed in.
Rather, she believed in the character of Saint Jeanne d'Arc and the holy monk Sanzang.
Of course, if the other party really could make Jack-chan's wish come true, then it wouldn't matter even if she offered her own purity to that virgin youth as a reward.
That's right, even though she dressed like a hostess and had previously been kidnapped by some unscrupulous Magus using hypnotic magic to serve as a sacrifice for summoning a Servant, she, Rikudou Reika, was still a pure girl to this day.
After all, born into a wealthy family, she had seen many of the dark sides of life from a young age, and she had developed a sense of vigilance and resistance toward others early on.
So after her parents passed away, she had properly protected her family assets, and her living funds were quite abundant, so she never needed to worry about money.
That was until she, a normal person, was kidnapped by a Magus using hypnotic magic.
"It's simple, you just need to watch from here." Daniel said from the side, "After all, the main force is Sanzang, who is responsible for cleansing the resentment of those children; you, as the master, really aren't of much use."
"Of course, if a sense of resistance appears in that child's consciousness, you will still need to use your command spells to suppress it." Daniel looked at Rikudou Reika and reminded her, "After all, with tens of thousands of consciousnesses, there will always be a few brats who refuse to be disciplined or want to continue being bad children."
"Use command spells to command it... hmm, that's how you say it, right." Rikudou Reika used the first command spell quite decisively, "Jack-chan, be a good child."
"Yes, Mom!" ×N.
A sound like an N-part chorus came from Jack the Ripper's throat.
"Ughh—" Mordred felt goosebumps all over.
Shishigou Kairi also took a step back, as if feeling uncomfortable.
"Then, let's begin." After glancing at Rikudou Reika in astonishment, Daniel turned his head and nodded at Sanzang.
"Because I will be going all out next, I will leave the dharma protection work to you all." Sanzang smiled and said to everyone present.
"Mm! Leave it to me! I will protect the safety of you, Sanzang, and Jack the Ripper with my life." Jeanne d'Arc nodded very seriously and replied.
As expected of Jeanne the Fair!
"Huh? Wait, we aren't being treated as dharma protectors too, are we?" Mordred asked with a hurried tone.
"How about I ask the King to come and have a talk with you?" Daniel asked, looking at Mordred.
"...How despicable! You guy!" Mordred glared at Daniel in annoyance, then turned her head to look at Shishigou Kairi, "master, what do you say? What should we do?"
"We can help with this favor." Shishigou Kairi glanced at Mordred, who was thinking 'I want to help, but I'm not willing to be the one to proactively agree,' and then nodded in reply, "After all, this is an opportunity to owe a favor to a third-party force."
"master, you guy, you really are awkward enough." The most awkward Servant patted her own master on the shoulder and told him he was awkward.
A look of bewilderment appeared on Shishigou Kairi's face.
"Then—!" The expression on Sanzang's face suddenly became indifferent.
Golden light began to spread from under her feet and gradually extended to under Jack the Ripper's feet.
Territory Creation: A+.
Theoretically, it could construct a 'Temple' above a 'Workshop'.
Coupled with the different directionality of Sanzang's abilities, and the assistance of divinity, the territory constructed by the golden light could almost be said to be an ultra-beggar version of Leiyin Temple.
Then, there was the dual combined force of High-Speed Sutra Chanting: A and Sanzang's Teachings: A!
The incomprehensible sutras, whose clear speed could not be captured by human ears, turned into golden characters that were spat out from Sanzang's mouth and gradually merged into Jack the Ripper's body.
The project of chanting to cleanse resentment officially began.
At the same time, at the highest point of Sighisoara, Chiron was informing his master of the scene he was seeing.
"So, is the Ruler Faction currently performing 'deliverance' work on Jack the Ripper?" Fiore scratched the hair by her ear, somewhat troubled, "And, the Red Faction's Saber and Saber's master are also watching from the side... what exactly is the situation?"
"Apologies, although I can see from my end, because of the fog and light, I cannot read lips." Chiron replied.
"What should we do? Should I intervene and interrupt this process?" Chiron asked.
"No, stand by for now." Fiore replied, "After all, the Red Faction's master and Saber are also there. If we take action now, it is very likely that we will push the Ruler Faction to the opposite side."
"You keep an eye on it, I will get closer to see the situation."
"master, this is too dangerous." Chiron frowned and advised.
"At the very least, I have shown my face in front of them before, so they shouldn't kill me directly without even letting me get close." Fiore replied, "Besides, I have you, Archer, protecting me."
"...By the way, speaking of this, where is Ruler? You just said, the most critical Ruler is not at the scene." Fiore asked further.
"On the other side." Chiron replied, "She should be observing the overall situation."
"Actually, from the moment we entered Sighisoara, she has been observing us."
"It should be to perform the outermost 'dharma protection' work for the 'deliverance' work in the very center." Fiore nodded, "We were allowed to enter, it should be because they feel we have no hostility toward them... or rather, she is confident that she can kill us right here the moment we develop hostility."
"However, I cannot understand why the Red Faction's Saber is also allowed to watch from the side." Fiore muttered in confusion.
"They must have already interacted before." Chiron explained, "Since the Red Faction's Saber appeared, he hasn't fought with Mr. Li Lin and the others. I fear that before we arrived, they had already met and even had a conversation."
"And now, the Red Faction's Saber is even helping with the 'dharma protection' together... it is very likely that a consensus was already reached before." Chiron continued, "After all, the one being 'delivered' is our Black Faction's Assassin."
