In order to become a Heroic Spirit, I had no choice but to cause trouble in history.

“…I’m a little confused.” Manlio touched his nose. He looked rather short, with a somewhat youthful, even slightly feminine, face. “So, you’re a teacher?”

Lawrence nodded quickly.

"...Sister Harley, are you sure this isn't a joke?" Manrio's lips twitched irregularly.

"...I've already told you I'm your teacher, Lawrence. Are you deaf?" Lawrence's blood pressure was about to explode.

“Oh! It really is a teacher! Because Sister Harley never scolds me, but the teacher will definitely be foul-mouthed when teaching me!” Manrio accepted Lawrence’s statement.

"...Would I have scolded you if you hadn't acted like an idiot while studying?" Lawrence had already naturally started twisting Manrio's ear.

"That familiar feeling—it really is you, teacher! Ouch! That hurts!" Manrio winced as Lawrence twisted his ear. "Teacher! My ear's going to fall off! I'm sorry!"

......

Five minutes later.

"So, Sister Harley didn't get a seat, and her name didn't even leave a deep enough impression in history...?" Caster's Servant, Manrio Ferdinand Springer, sighed. "I know it was almost inevitable, but..."

"No wonder you chose to manifest in the world in Harley Quinn's appearance, teacher."

Lawrence sighed softly, trying not to look too sad: "You still don't look much different, Manrio."

“Although I later had my own estate in Europe, the most unforgettable time of my life was still in Florence.” Manlio shook his head and said with a smile, “Being able to be summoned to fight alongside my teacher this time is my good fortune.”

"You... Oh right, I need to tell you about Jekyll first." Lawrence waved to Sakata Kintoki and Mordred.

Jekyll was lying on the sofa on the other side of the room, looking very uncomfortable.

“Let me start by saying that Henry Jekyll is a Servant, that much is certain,” Lawrence said seriously. “However, he is not a normal Servant.”

"Are you Sakata Kintoki? Can you describe how he went berserk in the street?" Lawrence looked at the blond, muscular man with a bob haircut, Sakata Kintoki.

"Oh! At the time, it seemed like he was talking to himself on the road, and then suddenly he became like a different person, extremely agitated, and started fighting with a nearby phantom. When they sensed the battle, those guys would instantly gather together, so I stepped in and saved him," Sakata Kintoki said, stroking his chin. "That's about it."

"Speaking of which, isn't Henry Jekyll a character from the book?" Mashu and Ritsuka stood together. "I think he's a character from the book 'Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde'."

Lawrence tapped the table a few times with his finger.

"Let me help you sort out your thoughts. Do you remember that Servant you encountered in the French Singularity? The Assassin's Servant, shouldn't it be called The Phantom of the Opera?"

"I remember, but during that battle, my attention was mostly focused on other things..." Fujimaru Ritsuka thought of Elizabeth Bathory, who could sing a dragon to death, and couldn't help but shudder.

Camilla rolled her eyes from behind.

"Yes, good to remember." Lawrence nodded. "The way the riders in *The Phantom of the Opera* exist can be considered as such—"

"The prototype is the vessel, and the legend constitutes the ability and thought. It is not a simple historical figure, but a combination of historical figure and legendary monster."

"His composition is similar to that of Henry Jekyll, but not entirely the same."

“Henry Jekyll, possessing the dual characteristics of both a living being and a Servant, now looks... somewhat like Mash.” Lawrence looked at Mash with a smile.

"Huh?" Mashu was taken aback.

“There are a large number of phantoms in London. This is information we confirmed before our connection with Chaldea was severed.” Lawrence looked at Jekyll seriously. “The phantoms are highly skilled, so could we assume that Henry Jekyll was summoned here as a phantom?”

"This..." Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.

Didn't you just say it had the dual characteristics of a Servant and a living being? How come it's become a Phantom now?

"This era contains the fictional character 'Henry Jekyll,' and the real-life human 'Henry Jekyll' who served as the prototype for the story, living in London. If nothing unexpected happens, what Mr. Sakata Kintoki saw that day was the overlap of the two in this London." Lawrence narrowed his eyes.

"Henry Jekyll, as the prototype of the famous protagonist, is inherently capable of becoming a Servant. When he encounters the phantom of Henry Jekyll, he naturally undergoes a change."

"Therefore, Henry Jekyll, a living, flesh-and-blood Servant, was established as a special being in this singularity."

It is 13:43 today.

My heart started to ache terribly... I'm on my way to the hospital. I'm not sure if there will be an update today, just letting you know in advance.

My cousin, who is also the author of this book, and I are currently in the hospital for observation due to complications. There will be no updates today.

There's an update today.

Still in the hospital, but I've brought my laptop. I'm fine now. Thank you all for your concern. I'll be updating twice tonight as usual.

Chapter 708 The Blank Spot in London

"As expected of the teacher, you've already figured out how Jekyll exists here." Manrio stood behind Lawrence with a smile on his face.

Lawrence nodded, but did not react to Manlio's praise.

"Is that so..." Jekyll had been awake the whole time. He listened to what Lawrence said, gritted his teeth, and used his willpower to suppress the restless self. He gasped for breath, sat up from the sofa, and wiped the cold sweat from his face.

"If he comes out... he will definitely do something terrible, something horrible... I don't want him to come out... I don't want him to come out..." he muttered to himself, trying to calm himself down.

“Boss Jekyll…” Sakata Kintoki looked at Jekyll with a worried expression.

“It’s alright, Kintoki… Now that you know your situation, you have to accept it.” Jekyll shook his head and looked at Lawrence with gratitude. “Thank you, Manrio’s teacher, or rather, Miss Lawrence… right?”

"...Just call me that for now." Normally, Lawrence, who was already used to it, might have nodded naturally in agreement, but now...

Manlio stood to the side, laughing heartily, making no attempt to hide his true feelings.

"You little brat..." Lawrence gritted his teeth involuntarily.

"Hey hey hey—Teacher, don't twist my ear! Since you're using Harley Quinn's appearance, be gentle!" Manrio retreated at lightning speed, dodging Lawrence's outstretched arm.

Lawrence glared at Manrio, snorted, and looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka and Jekyll: "Master, Mr. Jekyll, our interests are aligned, so we must devise a plan to conquer this singularity."

“Mr. Jekyll just told me some information.” Fujimaru Ritsuka nodded and said, “The entire city of London is currently shrouded in a huge magical barrier. I have something to ask Miss Lawrence about this.”

"Was this large magical barrier set up by the Demon God Pillar?"

Lawrence shook his head decisively: "I can say for sure that it's not true."

“The magical aura of the Demon God Pillar is very easy to identify. I will never forget that dark and profound magic.” Lawrence shook his head and sighed. “However, there is another thing I am certain of, and that is that the existence of this magic array is probably our target.”

“There’s one more thing to consider.” Jekyll, now recovered, held up a finger. “We don’t know if the person who set up this large magical barrier is the same person who created the phantoms. We have to consider the possibility of facing multiple enemies at the same time.”

He lowered his head, looking at his trembling hands: "I want to resolve this disaster more than anyone else..."

"Although I am just an ordinary scientist, as I said before, I do live here, in this city."

"The appearance of phantom spirits has paralyzed the entire city. The power of phantom spirits is far greater than that of ordinary humans. There are quite a few dangerous phantom spirits among them. Moreover, even if the phantom spirits do not kill humans, the mental stress of living in this city full of phantom spirits is enough to drive a person insane!"

"Even if we disregard the existence of the Phantom element, the dense fog that has been accumulating in London will eventually kill people; the humidity in the air is just too high!"

"Moreover, based on my observations of the barrier's edge these past few days, the barrier doesn't seem to be able to prevent the phantom from leaving."

"In other words, the productivity and influence of these monsters could even extend globally."

Fujimaru Ritsuka frowned: "...Really? Is that how it is?"

“The problem is more serious than we thought.” Lawrence patted Fujimaru Ritsuka on the shoulder.

“Yes, I understand. The most important thing is intelligence. We need to take the initiative.” Fujimaru Ritsuka nodded.

“It looks like you’ll need this.” Manrio walked over with a smile and placed a map of London on the table.

"This...when did you finish this?" Jekyll looked at the London map covered with annotations in surprise. The information on it was very comprehensive, including which locations would frequently see phantoms spreading outwards, as well as many blank areas.

“These blank areas…” Lawrence pondered, observing the information on the map.

“There are no phantoms in the blank area, which is strange. I didn’t approach it to be on the safe side. My magic makes it easy for me to hide, but my close combat ability… By the way, teacher, how is your combat ability?” Manrio approached Lawrence with “interest.”

Lawrence silently conjured a gem-encrusted blade even longer than Manlio's.

Manlio: "I was wrong."

Lawrence frowned: "Why do I feel like you're even more mischievous than when you were alive?"

“I don’t know.” Manrio tilted his head.

Lawrence stared blankly for a moment, then smiled.

“But it’s all good, it’s all good.” She sighed softly. “You are much better off like this than when you were still in Florence.”

Manlio's bravado vanished. He pursed his lips, chuckled, and stood to the side with his hands behind his back.

Lawrence also fell silent, leaving only the sounds of Fujimaru Ritsuka and Jekyll discussing the matter.

“We should investigate these strange blank spots.” Fujimaru Ritsuka wanted to find a pattern in these spots, but the blank spots were simply impossible to form a complete pattern; they were chaotic and disordered.

There are a total of eleven blank spots on the map, spread throughout Greater London, from Enfield in the north to Croydon in the south, from Hillingdon in the west to Barking in the east.

“No matter how large a magical barrier is, there will always be something that supports it. That will never change, right, Miss Lawrence?” Fujimaru Ritsuka turned her head and glanced at Lawrence.

Lawrence seemed a little dazed, but after turning around, he quickly nodded: "Ah, yes, that's right."

Her expression turned serious: "These gaps are undoubtedly abnormal for London, and in this time of need for intelligence, they are undoubtedly locations that must be investigated."

“Yes, Mr. Jekyll and I have the same idea.” Fujimaru Ritsuka nodded. “If these places are indeed where the possessed objects are placed, then perhaps destroying these possessed objects could make this huge magical barrier disappear?”

“Well… I only have a superficial understanding of magic, but I think that’s how it is?” Jekyll looked at Manrio.

“Of course that’s true!” Manrio chuckled, then glanced at Lawrence with concern. “But given your current condition, can you really take the initiative?”

Chapter 709 Manlio's Joy and Tears

Lawrence went to sleep.

"Teacher is very tired." A voice rang out at the door of Fujimaru Ritsuka's room.

She was looking at the map in front of her.

“Mr. Manrio?” Ritsuka was a little surprised.

Standing at the door was Lawrence's student, one of the Servants who had summoned themselves to this London Singularity, Manrio Ferdinand Springer.
