“Running away is worse than dying in battle, isn’t it?” Li Wei said. “Indeed, it’s all in vain.”

"Then, obediently become the power of my seven deadly sins."

"Gluttony, devour her!"

Li Wei said sternly, his tone leaving no room for argument.

The next moment, all the wolf forms that had manifested from the power of gluttony merged into a dark mass, forming a mouth two or three meters wide, which it then devoured Jack the Ripper.

"do not want!"

Just then, a figure rushed out from the side and blocked Jack the Ripper's way. It was Liu Daolingxia, who was supposed to run away. She had planned to run far away, but as time went by, she gradually had a bad feeling, so she turned back to look for Jack.

Now, Gluttony, which could have brought both of them to their deaths with the Seven Deadly Sins, has stopped.

Li Wei squinted at the two of them.

"interesting."

"You think that by standing in front of her, you can save her life?"

“No mother would let her child die in front of her,” Liu Daolingxia said firmly.

Even if... another life is lost?

After Li Wei finished speaking, he stared at Liu Daolingxia's expression, but the latter remained unchanged.

“I hope you can let Jack go. For that, I’ll do anything you want… I’m willing to do anything.”

Originally born into a good family, Liu Daolingxia was not unintelligent. When she saw Li Wei stop, she knew that things were about to turn around, which is why she decided to say those words.

"Mom, you're not allowed to bully Mom!"

Jack struggled to his feet, picked up the knife, and stood in front of Liu Daolingxia.

"Oh?" Li Wei looked at Jack with great interest.

"They're clearly not biological mother and daughter, with no blood relation, yet they're putting on a melodramatic, love triangle, where they depend on each other for survival and sacrifice for one another?"

Jack didn't answer Li Wei's question. Instead, he gritted his teeth and said to Liu Daolingxia, "Mom, use a Command Spell. I can stop them for a while. You run quickly."

"Jack..."

As if she had thought of something, Liu Daolingxia gently patted Jack's head.

Then--

"My child, I want you... to get out of here at all costs!"

A Command Seal on his hand disappeared.

Even without me, you must... live well!

The second command spell disappeared.

"Run, Jack!" Lingxia shouted.

Thick fog billowed from Jack's body; Jack's Noble Phantasm.

“Running away is pointless.”

"Eating the moon and devouring the sun exhausts heaven and earth; gluttony destroys the cycle of reincarnation."

"The Seven Deadly Sins - Gluttony, Two Stages of Liberation".

Chapter 286 Erosion Barrier, Second Stage of Gluttony

"Eating the moon and devouring the sun exhausts heaven and earth; gluttony destroys the cycle of reincarnation!"

As Li Wei spoke, countless dark shadows emerged from his body, covering the entire surrounding area.

……

Jack and Liudao Lingxia clung tightly to each other, Jack said fearfully, "Mom, why is this happening even though I unleashed my full power with my Noble Phantasm..."

“Jack…” Liu Daolingxia looked at her with a mixture of heartache and complicated emotions: “Why? I wanted you to escape with all your might and survive…”

Jack shook his head and said, "Mom, there's no way to escape from that person. In other words, fighting is the best way to escape."

Therefore, while Jack appeared to have violated the Command Seals, this was not actually the case. From beginning to end, they had no choice but to fight to the death.

Liu Daolingxia sighed helplessly; she knew the current situation was far from optimistic.

Jack the Ripper's Noble Phantasm, Dark City, was fully activated with the help of Command Seals. It was supposed to form a barrier and recreate the illusion of London in 1888.

But at this moment——

The thick acid fog was much thinner than theoretically expected. The sky was filled with two-meter-long, pitch-black birds resembling crows, but with eerie eyes, large mouths, and fangs. On the streets, black, humanoid figures suddenly appeared and mysteriously disappeared, while wisps of thick black smoke darted about everywhere.

"Mother……"

“Jack, don’t be afraid, Mommy’s right here,” Liu Daolingxia said with a gentle smile.

Although in the original work she seems indifferent to living beings, has an abnormal worldview, and strange ethics, it must be said that she is a very qualified mother to Jack, even though the two are not related by blood.

During the chase between her and Jack by the Red Archer Atalanta, she bravely took the arrow for Jack and even used up all her Command Seals to save him. This scene was undeniably captivating and won over many new fans.

At least... she wasn't the perverted person others imagined at the beginning, but a flesh-and-blood person who knew how to be grateful and appreciate the warmth of family, a great mother.

So now, even though she was panicking inside, she could only force herself to remain calm in front of Jack.

Liu Daolingxia gently stroked Jack's head. In her opinion, this might be one of the last few moments they would spend together. Jack, meanwhile, closed his eyes slightly and enjoyed the moment.

Time seemed to stand still for them.

Unfortunately, the good times didn't last long. A series of slow footsteps approached, like the arrival of a demon.

"A barrier-type Noble Phantasm? It's too weak. Even an incomplete Gluttony can easily erode it."

“Then, accept your death.” Li Wei raised his hand, and instantly, eerie black wolves appeared around them, surrounding the two of them.

"Wait, can I hug this child a little longer? And I wish this child could die before me, is that alright?"

"Oh?" Li Wei asked casually, "The reason?"

"Mother?"

Liu Daoling looked at Jack with gentle eyes and said slowly, "If I left before her, she would probably be in great pain watching me die."

"Moreover, I hope that when this child passes away, he will leave peacefully in my arms."

"..."

After a moment of silence, Li Wei suddenly sighed, and all the power of Gluttony disappeared. At the same time, Jack's barrier also dissipated.

"You can go now," Li Wei said, turning around.

"Don't ask why, because I am the strong one, and I can control your life and death."

“When you wanted to live, I wanted you to die; now that you want to die, I will not grant your wish.”

"And if there's a next time, I will... really kill you all."

Liu Daolingxia hugged Jack tightly, then took her hand and bowed deeply to Li Wei.

"Thank you."

After saying that, she and Jack left quickly, leaving Li Wei standing there quietly. Joan of Arc arrived a while later, looked at Li Wei, hesitated for a moment, and then softly asked, "Li Wei?"

She could also tell that Li Wei's mood seemed a little different now.

“Let’s go. I’ve eliminated Jack. At least from now on, that Jack is no longer Jack the Ripper, but the child of an ordinary mother.”

Joan of Arc nodded without asking why.

Since we're friends, we should just trust each other.

That's what she thought.

What is a madman?

That's just what most people call those who act against common sense and norms.

However, setting aside the distinction between the majority and the minority, from a truly detached perspective, who can say who is truly insane?

To put it another way, Liu Daolingxia and Jack are nothing more than madmen.

Li Wei, who has been living a different life since he was three years old, has long since transcended worldly concerns. If he wanted to, he could rebuild a proper ethical order and define all good and evil.

He can define what is normal and what is insane.

In his view, Liu Daolingxia was greater than many others and more deserving of to live, while Jack, in some ways, also had very sincere feelings for Liu Daolingxia.

The two seemed like a real mother and daughter, even closer than some parent-child relationships.

That emotion of being willing to die for the other person is genuine; even without reading the original work, Li Wei could feel it.

Because... he and that girl also went through the same thing, supporting each other through thick and thin, both abandoned by the world, both having only each other.

Therefore, Li Wei chose to back down; he didn't want to harm these two.

As for whether this approach is right or wrong, he won't care what others think. If someone insists on reasoning with him...

Unrestrained, eccentric, that's Li Wei—a madman, a psychopath, a non-human, a monster.

"Wait, Li Wei, it looks like some heroic spirits are rushing towards us, and they're moving very fast."

Joan of Arc's expression suddenly changed. "Their target is probably us. Oh no! We need to get out of the city quickly, or many people will be caught in the crossfire when he comes."

Now that Li Wei's lustful power has subsided, the people around him have long since returned to their original places from their dispersed state. Furthermore, before the servant encounters them, other people will also be drawn into the journey, so Jeanne cannot help but worry.

"A follower?"

Li Wei gave a cold laugh, "That's just in time."

Because he recalled some unpleasant memories of the past, Li Wei's emotions, while not exactly volatile, are somewhat unstable.

Since a follower has come looking for death, he won't be polite.

"Let's go and meet that reckless spirit who doesn't know his own mortality."

Chapter 287 Battle with Spartacus

In the wilderness outside the city, a burly man with blue and white skin, mostly naked and dressed in the clothes of an ancient swordsman, charged towards Li Wei and his companion, shouting as he brandished a small black sword.

"Wa hahaha!"

"So it's you guys!"

"Rebellion! Rebellion!"

The newcomer was none other than Berserker Spartacus, a Heroic Spirit who almost never obeyed orders and only found pleasure in slaughtering the strong.

In the original story, he lost control and rushed into the enemy's main base castle, the Black Faction's castle, where he was killed and became a Black Faction Servant. If Siegfried hadn't also been affected by the protagonist's halo, the Red Faction would have suffered a huge loss.

Now, under the influence of Luo Shuyuan and the other two, Spartacus is still going berserk, but this berserk state is better than feeding kills, at least for the red team, it is more acceptable.

In fact, Luo Shuyuan and Lao Li did not expect that the guidance they thought would take more effort would be so easy. They had only just transmitted Li Wei's aura to Spartacus when Spartacus quickly turned around.

"The oppressor, the aura of the oppressor!"

After that, Spartacus frantically pinpointed Li Wei and the others' location and rushed over.

"Rebellion!"

When Luo Shuyuan and the others heard Spartacus shout that, they were all a little dumbfounded.

They knew what Spartacus meant by "the oppressor." In the anime, Spartacus sensed the presence of the red Saber Mordred and turned his blade on her, shouting "the oppressor!"

Those who suppress the government, as the name suggests, are those who are in power and stand above the people, that is, those in positions of authority.

Judging from Spartacus's even more frenzied behavior than when he encountered Mordred in the animation, it seems that Li Wei's social class is even higher than Mordred's.
