Chapter 1482: Give her a chance 2
Jack the Ripper"s true nature is that of a collection of wraiths born from the aborted children of prost.i.tutes in Whitechapel, London.
It was also because of that reason why Haru"s impression of Jack"s mind was very good.
Haru, who had eaten the Horo Horo no Mi, had an ability to control a ghost, soul, and related matters, including Jack, who happened to be a collection of wraiths.
After hearing Jack"s wish, Haru thought to grant her wish and even without the help of the Holy Grail, he should be able to grant Jack"s wish.
Haru then brought Jack to the empty house since because of the Holy Grail War most of the people in this city had decided to move out and because of that, there were a lot of empty houses.
Reika also followed Haru since she was worried about Jack.
Putting Jack on the empty, clean bed, Haru faced Reika, who was standing in front of him.
"You have heard about Jack"s wish, right? What do you think?"
If Reika was alright with Jack"s wish then Haru would do the work immediately.
"Jack"s wish is to return to my stomach, how can you grant her wish?" Reika asked. She knew that the existence of Magus was amazing, and she also knew that this young man was very powerful.
Reika knew about Jack"s wish and she didn"t say much, however, she wanted to know how this young man was going to grant Jack"s wish.
"You should know that Jack is a wraith and if I can"t let her be in this world since she will kill more and more people in the future."
Seeing a panic on Reika"s face, Haru continued with his explanation.
"However, she"s a child and she"s a collection of aborted children which means, her soul is full of resentment." Haru looked at Reika and said, "Before I grant her wish, I will purify her to erase all the hatred and resentment, along with her memories. By then, she won"t remember you, but at the same time, she won"t remember that she is a serial killer nor her ident.i.ty as a Jack the Ripper. She will be reborn as a baby, is that alright with you?"
"Yes."
Reika didn"t have a choice and could only agree, however, when she heard his words, she didn"t think that it was bad since she didn"t really want Jack to have bad memories about her life anymore.
Reika had seen Jack"s memories after all and she understood how hard Jack"s life was.
"Then I will start now."
Hearing Reika"s consent, Haru didn"t hesitate and started with his work. His hand started to glow with a white light that gave warmth to the surrounding area.
Reika, who saw this light, could feel that her body was very warm and she felt very comfortable at that moment. The wounds, fatigue, and a lot more within her body also disappeared, being healed by the light.
When the light touched Jack, she showed an uncomfortable expression, however, she didn"t open her eyes.
At that moment, there was something dark that came out of Jack"s body and that matter started to form into a figure of the child.
Haru and Reika could see a lot of children slowly coming out from Jack, showing a smile and both of them understood that those children were the soul of the collection of aborted children within Jack the Ripper.
Those souls then slowly moved toward Haru"s palm and then formed into a ball of light.
The process was quite slow since it needed quite a precise process, and half an hour later, a figure of Jack appeared before them.
"Onii-chan, when we are born in the future, let"s go to Disney Land together with my mother."
Leaving such words, Jack also moved toward the ball of light on Haru"s palm.
"Yes."
Haru wasn"t sure whether Jack could hear him or not, and looked at the ball of light on his hand then looked at Reika, who was crying at this moment.
"Sit here, I will put her soul on your body."
Reika was quiet, but she nodded, following his words. She sat on the top of the bed and looked at him, who moved his palm toward her stomach.
The moment the ball of light entered her stomach, Reika could feel someone"s presence within her womb, and she understood instantly that the one inside her womb was Jack.
Haru wiped the sweat on his forehead and said, "It"s done, how is your feeling?" In theory, what he did should be successful, but he needed to ask Reika first.
"It... It"s amazing... I.. I can feel her inside my body..."
Reika showed a beautiful smile at this moment, caressing her stomach, and knew that Jack was inside her womb.
Haru nodded and sighed inwardly since he knew that he had succeeded.
"So am I pregnant now?" Reika asked. In truth, she felt a bit weird when she thought that she had become pregnant without s.e.xual intercourse.
"No, you"re not pregnant."
Haru shook his head and said, "Jack is inside your body, however, if you want her to appear in this world once again, then you need to become pregnant." He then took out a bankbook from his zipper storage and gave it to Reika.
"There"s one billion yen here. If you don"t want to stay in j.a.pan, you don"t need to worry since there are also 10 million dollars within that account too. You can use it for your family in the future."
Looking at the bankbook in her hand, Reika was stunned.
"When the matter is over, I will go back now."
Haru was about to go, but his hand was grabbed by Reika. "What"s wrong?"
"You"re leaving me?" Reika asked.
"Yes."
Haru nodded, after all, he didn"t have a feeling toward Reika. He wasn"t disgusted by her status as a prost.i.tute, he wasn"t someone who would f.u.c.k anyone as long as they were beautiful women.
"You"re not going to impregnate me?" Reika asked directly.
"....You want me to impregnate you?" Haru looked at Reika with confused expressions.
Reika nodded without hesitation. She knew that if she wanted Jack to be born again in this world, she needed to find someone to impregnate her, and she felt that no one was more suitable to become the father of Jack than the young man in front of her. It was her instinct as a woman, who told her that.
"Sorry, I can"t." Haru didn"t hesitate and rejected Reika"s directly.
"Huh?" Reika was confused then asked, "Why? Is it because I am a prost.i.tute?" She believed in her beauty and there were a lot of men that had fallen for her, however, she thought that her status as a prost.i.tute might disgust him.
Reika wasn"t stupid after all, however, when she saw his expression that seemed not the case.
Shaking his head, Haru said, "No, you"re beautiful and I will be happy if you become mine, however..."
"However?"
"First, we don"t have feelings for each other," Haru said.
Reika might be beautiful, but the time for both of them had known each other was too short.
"Second, I have a wife," Haru said.
His second reason might be a lie since even if he had a wife, he still searched for more girls, however, he didn"t want his first child to be made in this situation, not with Reika, who didn"t have a feeling foundation with him.
"Lastly, I will leave and I don"t want to be irresponsible for you," Haru said.
If Haru decided to impregnate Reika, he wouldn"t leave her in this world and brought her to his world, however, at that time, he wasn"t sure how to explain that matter to his girlfriends and he was sure that once he did that, all of his girlfriends would ask him to impregnate them, and at the same time, he felt that he was unfair to them, after all, they had dated him earlier, however, the one, who had his first children wasn"t them, but someone who he had met an only second time.
Even if Haru was a sc.u.mbag, he hadn"t fallen so low.
Hearing the first and second reasons, Reika could tell that Haru was bulls.h.i.tting her, however, when she heard the last reason, she understood the reason why he didn"t want to impregnate her.
"You should find a man that can love you and at that time, you can create a warm family for Jack and if you need help, just come to the Yggdmillennia family. You might see me there."
Haru patted Reika"s shoulder then left. He had given a lot of support to Reika, and the rest, he only hoped the best for both Reika and Jack.
"Thank you."
Hearing Reika"s words, Haru waved his hand, smiled, then teleported back.
Looking at Haru, who had disappeared, Reika laid on the bed once again, staring at the ceiling absentmindedly, and wondered why all the good men had been taken. Caressing her stomach, she smiled and decided to make a warm family for Jack in the future.
