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

But I'm so tired...

I'm sorry, Simon, this time, I couldn't save you either...

I'm sorry, Ritsuka, Mashu, I can't be with you until the end...

Sorry, Leonardo, this time, I might not be able to go back...

boom--

Sorry, Noel...

If you kill me, can you forgive my descendants...?

Lawrence wanted to say those words, but she no longer had the strength to say them.

Her limbs were twisted, her internal organs were churned up, and from the outside, it was almost impossible to tell that Lawrence still had a human form.

but......

In the last moment before losing consciousness, Lawrence saw a black dress.

Who is it?

Before he could figure out the problem, Lawrence's consciousness plunged into darkness.

......

Fujimaru Ritsuka covered her mouth, trying her best not to cry.

Simonetta's sense of contract has completely disappeared, which means that Simonetta has left the game.

Lawrence's sense of contract is now extremely weak, as if it might break at any moment.

No...no...what exactly happened?

What exactly happened in Croydon?

BOOM—!!

However, a battle had already broken out here. Two Servants, who had also lost their sense of self, attacked them without hesitation. Mordred and Mash were defending against the enemy.

A piece of building debris flew past Fujimaru Ritsuka, jolting her awake.

"Master! Focus! We are fighting now!" Mordred frowned, forcing back the Servant who was fighting her, and shouted loudly at Fujimaru Ritsuka.

"Master, watch out!" Mash blocked an arrow for Fujimaru Ritsuka.

“…I understand!” Fujimaru Ritsuka snapped out of her daze.

She didn't know what had happened, but she had to stop grieving and pull herself together to keep fighting!

Lawrence once told her that on this path, she should not be surprised or saddened by anyone's departure, even if she were to leave one day.

Miss Lawrence...

Sensing Lawrence's faint sense of contract, Fujimaru Ritsuka gritted her teeth and continued fighting.

......

At the University of London, a similar battle broke out.

"Damn it, where did all these phantom spirits come from?" Sakata Kintoki and Henry Jekyll stood back to back. "I have to unleash my Noble Phantasms. If we keep increasing their numbers, we won't be able to hold out like we did yesterday!"

Golden lightning had already appeared on his axe.

"We probably destroyed a possession object, and the owner of this barrier has become more vigilant." Jekyll nodded cautiously. "We need to finish this quickly. We can't delay. Continuing to fight here will only lead to our deaths. Prepare to run!"

"Oh!" Sakata Kintoki understood this as well, and used a lot of magic power to jump up.

Chapter 721 Lawrence, the Rescued

Woodgreen.

Manlio cautiously moved closer to Camilla and said to her, "I can sense that the magical energy in the mist has increased. I'm afraid that Servant is about to unleash their Noble Phantasm!"

"...Do you have any countermeasures?" Camilla glanced at the short Servant, inwardly complaining about why everyone she teamed up with was a child, whether it was Simonetta or Manrio, they all had childlike faces.

Manlio didn't answer, he just became more focused.

The slender Servant hidden in the mist has indeed unleashed her Noble Phantasm.

Her real name is Jack the Ripper.

He is one of the world's most notorious murderers, having killed five women. However, due to his superb concealment skills and various unfavorable conditions for the investigators, he ultimately escaped justice, and even after hundreds of years, no one knows who he is.

Therefore, the one summoned to this singularity and cruelly erased of their self due to the magic of the magic mirror is not the real Jack the Ripper, but a Servant carrying the concept of Jack the Ripper, possessing the appearance of a frail young girl.

Even so, she is indeed the "Jack the Ripper" without a doubt.

A glint of bloodlust flashed in her lifeless eyes.

This is London, the place where "he" committed his crimes, and the place where his legend and terror are most famous.

In other words, the current Jack the Ripper is... very strong!

She unleashed her Noble Phantasm. Although it wasn't nighttime, the thick, gloomy fog had already dimmed the light, fulfilling the conditions for releasing her Noble Phantasm.

“Foggy City…our hell begins here…” Her eyes were lifeless, but she raised her dagger and aimed it at Camilla through the thick fog.

Her only target... is Camilla.

"There is no end and no beginning..."

"—They're here!" Manrio sensed the almost overflowing killing intent, and his eyes widened suddenly.

"The culmination of my life's work, I hope, will be enshrined in the temple of saints—"

With his hands placed in front of his chest, Manlio made a gesture as if pushing open a door, and his eyes lit up.

Even if it has no end, even if it is unfinished, it is still the most beautiful gift to God. So, bestow your grace—

Jack the Ripper charged forward: "Only repetitive and meaningless disintegration—"

"Maria the Ripper: Disintegration!!!"

Camilla felt as if her heart had suddenly been frozen, as if the dagger would slash into her heart at any moment.

but......

"The endless destruction of the Saint Zecilia Church!!!"

A second before Jack the Ripper made contact with Carmilla, Manrio unleashed his Noble Phantasm.

hum-

The enormous phantom of the church enveloped Manlio and Camilla.

Ping!

The sound of metal clashing rang out as Jack the Ripper's Noble Phantasm, "Maria the Ripper," indeed struck Carmilla, but without causing her the slightest injury!

The dagger seemed to have struck steel; nothing happened except for a loud noise.

“This is the grace of a saint!” Manrio said to Jack the Ripper, who was frozen in front of Camilla, and then released his magic, briefly binding Jack. “Lady Camilla! Now!”

"Everything exists within the illusion, and the girl is within this box." Camilla naturally understood this was the best opportunity to counterattack, unleashing her Noble Phantasm, "Phantom Maiden!!!"

Because of Manrio's restraint, Jack the Ripper was unable to avoid Carmilla's Noble Phantasm and was directly trapped inside the Iron Maiden's Armor.

puff-

谷緍

The sound of something piercing flesh rang out, and bloodstains appeared beneath the Iron Maiden. Inside the Iron Maiden, Jack the Ripper had already transformed into a golden light and returned to the Throne of Heroes.

Camilla breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the cold sweat from her face.

She could vaguely sense that the opponent's Noble Phantasm had some similar effects to hers.

Special attacks targeting women.

If she were to be hit by the opponent's Noble Phantasm, she would undoubtedly be eliminated immediately.

Fortunately, the opponent was not mentally alert; otherwise, he would have been an extremely terrifying adversary.

and......

"Thanks, kid Manrio." Camilla sighed.

"You're welcome. Let's keep going and head to Woodgreen." Manrio smiled, not minding at all.

Camilla didn't say anything and followed Manrio on his way to Woodgreen.

......

evening.

Beckley's villa.

The atmosphere was silent, filled with a deathly stillness.

The troops split into four groups, two of which were wounded, and one group never returned. Only Manlio and Camilla, who went to Woodgreen, returned unharmed.

Lawrence and Simonetta, who went to Croydon, have not returned to this day, and Simonetta may never come back.

Camilla went back to her room and locked herself in. The rest of the people sat in the second-floor living room, unsure of what to say.

"Is the teacher's contract still valid?" Manrio looked at Fujimaru Ritsuka with a sorrowful expression.

“It’s still there, but very faint.” Fujimaru Ritsuka stared blankly at the Command Seals on the back of her hand, thinking of Lawrence and Simonetta’s faces.

Mashu sat beside her, her expression sorrowful, her lips pursed.

Manlio breathed a sigh of relief.

"Let's all share what happened to you." Mordred knew that Fujimaru Ritsuka probably needed to calm down.

During the exchange of information, everyone present knew that Lawrence, the Servant, held a special significance for Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mash. She had been by the two girls' side since the French Singularity, protecting them and accompanying them all the way to the present.

“We’ve seen the artifact at the University of London.” Sakata Kintoki gasped for breath and slumped onto the sofa. “I’m exhausted. If we hadn’t unleashed our Noble Phantasm, I don’t think Jekyll and I would have made it back.”

“We also have a possession over there, but we didn’t fight. I concealed my presence, took a quick look, and then came back. There are many mirrors over there. We went through a battle on the way and don’t have the energy to continue fighting.” Manrio sighed softly.

Knowing that Lawrence hadn't left the stage, he felt slightly relieved, but still felt fear.
