Chapter 516: Shadow of the Heart
However, even when he knew that he had fallen into the trap again, Jack the Ripper did not panic.
On the one hand, he is already good at escaping and hiding, and this kind of trap cannot trap him;
On the other hand, with his strength, even if there is a trap, and the Baskerville Hound does have some restraint against him, he is confident that he can fight back.
- Of course, this is based on Charlize's current spell power.
Therefore, after seeing the sudden change in the momentum on Charlize's body and the expression on his face became even more cunning, Jack the Ripper immediately realized that trouble was coming-
"Airborn!?You're Charlotte Booth now!?"
"Do you recognize that?"
Charlotte, who possessed Charlize, smiled,
"I expected it, but I didn't expect you to attack Sally so soon!"
"Well, these traps I've set aren't bad, right?"
Charlotte had indeed considered the possibility of a ghost attacking Charlize early on, so she would have the "Black Mass" ritual with the girl in the first place.
But the other party will attack this during the filming of "The Female Devil", which is indeed beyond his expectations.
Therefore, as soon as she received the girl's call for help through the dream, Charlotte immediately cast a spell and descended on her.
Fortunately, the preparation he made in advance worked, and Charlize's response was perfect, just in time for the confrontation he had just finished with the Lord of Hell, and he could react immediately......
In short, he arrived in time.
"Surrender, Jack!?"
Charlotte deliberately provoked.
"Do you think you're going to win?"
Jack the Ripper is very calm here,
"Don't say anything else, you should know that if I want to leave, you will never be able to stop me!"
"Really?"
Charlotte smiled,
"I don't know if you've heard of the Tyndaros Hound?"
"Tyndaros!?"
Although she couldn't see her expression at all because her whole body was shrouded in darkness, Charlotte instinctively noticed that Jack the Ripper's expression changed suddenly.
"That monster that can't escape once you've been targeted?Lovecraft's hound!?"
"That's right. ”
Charlotte nodded,
"When I was creating, uh, Buck—"
He pointed to the Baskerville Hound on the side,
"—also introduced some of the attributes of the Tyndalus Hound, although I don't know how effective it is, but you can try it!"
"How dare you bring in that kind of power!?"
Jack the Ripper's voice was a little flustered, which made Charlotte feel strange -
Could it be that there is a secret behind the Cthulhu Mythos and the god of love and craftsmanship (the nickname of Lovecraft, the creator of the Cthulhu Mythos)?
However, now was not the time to think about this, and Charlotte pointed at him, and the Baskerville Hound beside him, or Buck, rushed forward.
This time, Buck's speed became very fast, and it could even be said that it was not running at all, but directly crossed the distance of space, and suddenly appeared in front of Jack the Ripper-
Buck bites down on Jack the Ripper's head.
"How did you get !? so fast?"
Jack was so frightened that he barely dodged backwards, and he managed to avoid the fatal bite.
However, Buck's claws swung out, and he couldn't dodge them anymore.
The sharp claws of the giant dog slashed across Jack's body at once.
"Ahh!!!hh
Jack screamed in pain, and his body suddenly turned into a black mist, and then not far away, it condensed again.
However, this time, the black in his figure was obviously not so rich.
"Buck isn't a particularly powerful goblin, but he can get mana from us commanders - under my command, he's more than three times stronger than when Sally commanded him. ”
Charlotte explained, and then a wry smile appeared on the corner of her mouth,
"It's just that the mantra ability from the Sherlock Holmes series on it is really a double-edged sword - now under its influence, I have begun to say superfluous things. ”
"Haha, you deserve it!"
Jack the Ripper laughed,
"Charlotte Booth, I still can't beat you this time, but don't think it's over - don't forget, there's already a killer shadow in your girlfriend's heart!"
After saying that, his figure atomized again and dissipated.
But Charlotte didn't take it lightly because of this-
He remained on guard until he felt the time around him begin to loosen and the dreams brought by Jack the Ripper completely dissipated......
"Charlotte, what should I do next?"
In his mind, Charlize asked Charlotte.
Now, it's the second half of the night.
The filming of the crew of "The Female Devil" has ended, and everyone went back to the hotel to rest, not noticing that the most famous serial killer in history had just appeared beside them.
Charlize also returned to his room, however, just in case, Charlotte did not lift the state of presence at this time.
Therefore, at this time, it is still Charlotte who controls the girl's body, and Charlize's own consciousness is still hidden at the subconscious level for the time being.
However, even so, the girl heard Jack the Ripper's last words, and she looked a little worried-
"Because of playing Erin Warnos, I did have a certain shadow of a serial killer in my subconscious - according to Jack the Ripper, he could use this shadow to attach himself to me again. 」
"This is indeed a nuisance!"
Charlotte sighed.
Indeed, there are those who have been thieves for a thousand days, but there are no thieves for a thousand days.
But if you try to solve this problem, sooner or later you will get into trouble, but-
"Sally, the reason why you have the shadow of a killer in your subconscious, or to put it simply, you played Erin Warnos too deeply, more because you empathized with her, right?"
Charlotte analyzed very directly,
"You've always suspected that your father's death was the result of your inadvertent trigger, the source of the psychological shadow you haven't solved until now, and the reason why you have empathy for Erin Warnos - you do think you're a killer!"
「...... Maybe!"
After a long silence, Charlize replied slowly, but his tone was unusually weak.
"I can't tell you, it must not have been you. 」
Charlotte did not simply comfort his girlfriend, on the contrary, his words were very direct,
"But does that matter, Sally, and you still have your mom and me, don't you?"
"yes, I understand that, but—"
Charlize smiled bitterly,
"It's one thing to understand, it's another thing to do it! I originally wanted to use the opportunity to play Erin Warnos to completely use the experiential method to treat my psychological problems, but—"
"The experiential method, if used well, is psychotherapy, and if it is not used well, it is a second psychological trauma. 」
"yes, it's self-defeating!"
Charlize also knew that Charlotte was right.
Although she was not serious enough to be traumatized twice this time, because of Jack the Ripper's troubles, it did not achieve the therapeutic effect.
Even, the shadow of the killer in the heart is more obvious.
This made her a little depressed.
But Charlotte laughed,
"There's still a way—Sally, do you want another Black Mass?"
