Chapter 1481 Give her a chance 1
Within the night, silence once again came, visiting Trifas city.
Perhaps it was the Holy Grail War that had ended, the tension and horror that had been pervading this city seemed to slightly ease and returned to how it was before.
Of course, such a thing only happened in the morning.
Once night fell, this city was dominated by a Magus that turned this city into a dead city.
The people of this city fell asleep early.
In such a bright moonlight, almost no people wander back and forth on the street.
However, at this moment, a mother and a daughter were holding each other's hands, and the relationship between the two of them seemed to be very harmonious.
Those two were naturally Jack the Ripper and her master, Reika Rikudou.
At that moment, Reika held Jack's hand tightly and felt quite worried.
"Are you going to be alright, Jack?"
Reika had never had an actual family and she had suffered from abuse being adopted. In her life there was nothing but suffering, however, she had found a meaning in her life which happened to be the little girl whose hand that she held at this moment.
Reika knew that the Holy Grail War had ended, and which meant, it would be hard to maintain Jack the Ripper's existence within this world since the Holy Grail didn't support Jack the Ripper's existence anymore.
If Reika wanted Jack the Ripper to stay in this world, then she needed to kill more people since without eating the soul of humans, Jack the Ripper would be unable to exist in this world.
If Reika was a Magus then she could use a Magic Power to make Jack the Ripper stay in this world.
Unfortunately, she wasn't.
"Don't worry, mom." Jack the Ripper smiled and said, "I am sure that Onii-chan will help."
"Onii-chan?"
Even though Reika had heard about this "Onii-chan" before, she didn't believe that he would help Jack the Ripper, however, as long as Jack the Ripper could stay in this world, then she would do anything.
Then it was at this moment that both mother and daughter heard the sound of footsteps. Both of them quickly looked up and saw a young man appear in front of them.
"Onii-chan!"
Jack the Ripper didn't hesitate and ran quickly toward the young man.
However, Reika stood there since she was quite stunned. She had to admit that the young man that appeared before her might be the most handsome man that she had seen in her life.
The same as a man, who was mesmerized when they saw a beautiful woman. It was the same for a woman when they saw a handsome man.
Yes, the one who appeared before the two of them was Haru.
Haru looked at Jack the Ripper that was running toward him, then hugged him. He didn't avoid Jack the Ripper and looked at this serial killer, who was hugging him happily.
"Onii-chan, let's go to Disney Land with mom!" Jack the Ripper looked up and asked.
Haru's view toward Jack the Ripper was quite complicated. Even though this little girl had killed a number of people, in the end, this little girl was a child, however, at the same time, even if she was a child, she also needed to take responsibility for all the people that she had killed.
Haru might not be a good guy, but it didn't mean that he was downright evil, who would let someone as crazy as Jack the Ripper run amok within the world, especially when Reika was unable to support the existence of Jack the Ripper in this world, without killing someone.
"Jack, what's your wish?" Haru asked.
"My wish?" Jack looked at Haru with a smile then said, "I want to return to my mother's womb!"
Hearing that answer, Haru thought that Jack wanted to be reborn once again and this time, she wanted to be born on the stomach of a woman that loved her. He then looked at Reika Rikudou, who was looking at him in wary.
Even though Reika knew from Jack the Ripper that this young man might not hurt them, she also understood that, considering how comfortable she felt beside this young man for some reason.
'What kind of feeling is this?'
Reika had seen a lot of men in her life since she had been working as a prostitute. She wasn't those ignorant girls who would fall in love with someone because of looks or wealth, and rather than a man, she cared about her daughter more.
While Reika was looking at Haru, Haru also looked at Reika.
When Haru learned about Reika's background, he knew that the life of this woman was quite unfortunate and it wouldn't be weird if she decided to commit suicide one day, however, the appearance of Jack the Ripper had given her hope in life, especially when Jack the Ripper was someone who had saved her.
After all, before the Holy Grail War began, Reika was used as a sacrifice to summon Jack the Ripper by Jack the Ripper's previous master.
If Jack the Ripper didn't choose Reika at that time, Reika would have already died and because of that Reika was grateful to Jack and the relationship between the two of them became dependent.
Then suddenly…
Jack the Ripper closed her eyes and fell into Haru's arms.
"Jack!"
Reika quickly panicked and knew that there was something wrong, especially when she saw how Jack closed her eyes and fell into Haru's chest, however, she knew that she was powerless and she didn't have the power to save Jack.
Reika was full of panic and quickly said, "Don't kill Jack! I will do anything, but please don't kill Jack!"
"……"
Haru was speechless, but she also understood Reika's reaction, considering how both of them were unfamiliar. Even though he might have created a good impression on Reika because of his appearance, the existence of Jack was more important than him in Reika's heart.
"Don't worry, I won't kill her," Haru said.
"…"
Reika didn't believe Haru's words and was ready to shoot her pistol, but Haru suddenly appeared beside her and grabbed her pistol.
"What?!"
"Calm down, I won't do anything to you," Haru said with a helpless expression.
"Then what do you want to do?" Reika kept, staring at this young man. Her expression showed that even if she died, she would save Jack no matter what.
"You should know that if I let Jack live in this world, then she will kill a lot of people. Even if all the people that she kills are all bad guys, you should know that isn't the solution, right?"
"…Then what? Why are you helping us?" Reika could tell that Haru didn't mean harm, however, she didn't understand his motive for helping her.
Haru caressed Jack's hair, looking at Jack, who was sleeping in his arms, then said, "I just want to give her a second chance." He then looked at Reika and asked, "I want to grant Jack's wish, what do you think?"
"………"
