[Since Sherlock Holmes and Watson are both real characters, then what kind of person is this mysterious Erin in reality?]

☆Text☆

Jekyll listened to the confession of the criminal in front of him with the mentality of listening to the story.

No, no, it seems that it cannot be said that Macchiri is the criminal, but it is obvious that he put himself in the position of the criminal to tell himself.

Marchiri's story sounds quite bizarre. Jekyll dared not say that he could understand it, but it was still very simple to understand what he wanted to express.

Because this was 1888, for Brother Jekyll, a top medical student who really lived in the Victorian era, the distance between the mystery and ordinary society was too close.

This is an turbulent era, a bizarre era, countless magician families were involved in the wave of capital, and countless magician families went bankrupt, and fell to the point of selling coolies or selling technical knowledge in order to continue research.

Because of this, this is also an era where mystery is rampant in the society of ordinary people.

On the one hand, people are full of human feelings for emerging science and technology, but at the same time, most people also practice mystery that really exists, not rumors or simple novels. Most people even think that science is actually mysterious - in fact, this idea is not wrong. At least there is nothing wrong in this world.

Unfortunately, this world is really a mysterious world.

To Jekyll, Marich's story is far away and seems to be within reach. This is an extremely magical era, so there is nothing to accept.

Even Jekyll himself, as a top medical student, believes that there are really evil spirits under the London Bridge and in the Thames River.

The young man Jekyll not only did not feel afraid, but was a little excited. Although he could not be said to be a wealthy family, as a top student in medicine, he could naturally be considered a small asset. Who doesn’t like Sir Conan Doyle’s detective novels in this era?

As a medical student, Brother Jekyll himself was more or less a little bit like "Warson" to meet his own Sherlock Holmes, and then solved the idea of ​​protecting peace in various bizarre cases.

Now this opportunity is right in front of you.

Although like Lu Mingfei, Jekyll didn't understand the mysterious academic terms very well, his experience of the incident itself was an immersive experience in various senses.

Jekyll actually read the book "Incarnation Doctor" two years ago, and it was all considered as the same name unexpectedly. Now it seems that Mr. Robert Louis Stevenson used him as a prototype by accident?

Or maybe Jekyll has nothing to do with Jekyll in the story, but because of the character setting, he was chosen by Marichi's Phantom Summoning Technique?

After calming down, Jekyll discovered something, that is, his physical fitness has been leaping and strengthened. Originally, he was a student who had been in the laboratory for many years, and his physical fitness was naturally not much better, but now Jekyll thinks:

"I can fight the entire Scotland Yard alone!"

Brother Jekyll felt that he was full of energy.

I don’t know what Jekyll, who is truly a hero, feels about seeing the appearance of this passionate young man when he was young.

......By the way, because in Sir Conan Doyle's novel, Holmes almost complains that Scotland Yard is a waste and he cannot solve the case, so this kind of cute Scotland Yard has become a mainstream habit of social public opinion.

In a sense, it is also a unit of measurement for combat power.

Marchery told Jekyll that London is now in crisis, and a huge mysterious magic ritual enveloped the entire London.

"In fact, this is not real London, but a false London, a huge dream of unprecedented scale. Countless London residents are trapped in this 'London in the Story' pieced together by their own impressions, and play their respective roles."

Macchiri's current purpose is to crack this huge mysterious ritual and find the reason behind it why the mastermind behind it supports this ritual.

In order to achieve this goal, Macchiri used his prototype of the "Heroic Spirit Summoning Technique" that was only a few hundred years away - the "Phantom Spirit Summoning Technique" to summon several spirit bodies and demons.

Compared with heroic spirits, the Phantom Spirit has no treasures, no skills, and no corrections. Technically speaking, each side is very rough, and even the spell system used to assist in controlling the demons does not exist. Whether the magic spirit can be controlled depends on the ability of the caster.

The first warlock that Macchiri needs is a master of evil knowledge to observe the secrets of the barrier covering the entire London. So he summoned Tamamomae. Because he was worried that Tamamomae could not control, he summoned Sakata Kintoki, the samurai who was used to control Tamamomae in advance.

To be more precise, it summoned "Daji" and "Momotaro".

However, before taking action, Macchiri had to solve the hidden dangers on her, so she summoned the 'Incarnation Doctor' Jekyll again.

"Why choose the existence of the East?" Jekyll asked the key point.

“There are three reasons,

First: I am an expert in the mysterious knowledge of the West, so naturally I have to summon Eastern magicians who can make up for my lack of knowledge.

Second: I first decided to summon "Daji", and then to deal with "Momotaro" who was summoned to deal with Daji, the reason I chose Daji was because she had the identity of Japan and was not within the direct coverage of the mainland China platform, so it was relatively easy to summon.

Third: When magic is used, unlike many laymen imagined, we magicians are not direct users of the schema, but more like managers. The development of the schema does not mainly depend on the schema himself, but the 'environmental elements' used by the schema. In this special point, existences with the 'hero character in the story' are more likely to be summoned."

Regardless of whether you understand or not, Jekyll nodded seriously and said that he understood.

Then Jekyll asked a very natural question.

"Since it's easy to summon the 'hero characters in the story' here now, why not summon Sherlock Holmes?"

Sherlock Holmes of this era cannot be said to be well-known, but he is also a household name. Jekyll's questions are very normal.

Then Macchiri told him that there was Sherlock Holmes in reality, not only a detective, but also a superpower who could wrestle with Chimera with flesh and blood.

Sherlock Holmes is the originator. The origin ability he mastered is called the "Solver". This origin makes almost all magic tricks invalid on him. He is a veritable magician killer.

Marchery cannot be said to know Sherlock Holmes, but Sherlock Holmes and he are both friends of Mrs. Bravatsky, so they naturally have some understanding of each other.

"It is impossible to summon Sherlock Holmes, but if Sherlock Holmes is also involved, he will definitely be on the way to solve the problem, so we will not force it."

Jekyll was stunned for a while before he realized: "...Is there a real person there??"

No matter what, at least Macchiri's own action plan was still going well.

The man who told him the "future" that claimed to be the Lord of Chalde and his descendants, Maki Sakura, disappeared after telling him about the hidden dangers of the demon god in his body. Maybe she was also using her own method to guide the special?

The biggest success for Macchiri is actually the character of "Daji" Tamamomae, not the viciousness in the story, but rather the kind of kind that is quite friendly and can communicate in words.

Then, with the cooperation of Jekyll, the potion of "separation of personality" was drunk by Macchiri.

According to the plan, in the most smooth situation, Sakata Kintoshi, who is good at dealing with magical things, will suppress the separated demon god Babatos, and then Tamamomae will use magic to seal it and make it into a magical devil.

The plan is perfect.

Then there was a problem as soon as I came up.

After drinking the potion, nothing happened.

Tamamomae confirmed Jekyll's potion and confirmed that this thing was really useful, he came to the conclusion:

"The first conclusion is that the demon Babatos seems to be no longer in your body. The second conclusion... Maybe the future Matung Dirty Inkstone is a monster, but there is no 'malice' or 'evil side' in the current Makiri's body - Matung Dirty Inkstone is another two hundred years later, and it is too far from you now, so the potion cannot perform its effect."

"If you want to solve the 'future' in the 'now', it's somewhat unrealistic... For an existence like you, it's difficult to die before the soul completely decays, right?"

Marichi was silent.

suicide?

If it was really that simple.

This special point is based on the "Dream of Life in All London", in other words, the spiritual consciousness of all people begins an unprecedented "sleepwalking" in the illusory world.

The closest thing to this situation... is probably the experience of the protagonist Alice in "Alice in Wonderland"?

When dying in dreams, ordinary people will die, but Macchiri is different. The soul of the demon makes his spirit particularly powerful before decay.

As the dream is broken, after the dream wakes up, the special point will disappear. When the human body is completed, Marichi will also forget his experience in this special point... Of course, he will also forget the "what will look like in the future" and will return to the path of studying the summoning of heroes until one day he goes astray.

“…”

Although he saw through this, Macchiri did not respond to the spicy words of Tamamomae, but quickly cheered up again.

"Since Barbatos is not with me and there are no hidden dangers on me for the time being, then let's start to act."

I will find a way to solve the future.

Now deal with the current problem first.

If this special point was not broken earlier, more people would be killed in the dream fairyland.

"Where to go?" Jin Shi asked.

“Clock Tower.”

☆

Clock Tower, the headquarters of the Magicians Association, also serves as a large library, which serves as a political institution similar to educational institutions and the Magicians family.

Since the existence of the entire London is involved, the magicians of the Magicians Association naturally cannot escape. As long as they find ways to make them realize that this is a dream, they may organize them and use magic from the inside of the fairyland to try to counter and break.

The process of entering the clock tower was unexpectedly smooth.

After passing through the barrier of the clock tower itself, Marichi did not encounter any obstacles, which was obviously abnormal.

Not to mention that they were not stopped, they didn't even see anyone.

The deeper you go.

A bloody smell gradually spread and became stronger.

While Jekyll was nervous, he suddenly thought of a problem inexplicably.

"...Would we go to the crime scene? Do we have detectives here? If there are no detectives who meet a super criminal like Professor Moriarty...? Moriarty?"
