Shinji was sure that his perception was correct.
Although he and Jack had not signed a contract and had not become a formal Master, and could not exercise the Master's power to check the basic attributes of the Servant, he was very clear that each job had a unique aura after participating in two Holy Grail Wars, and that masters above a certain level could distinguish the job of a Servant by its aura.
But the little Jack in front of him did not have such characteristics. This feeling only appeared in the army summoned by Iskandar. And the two previous attacks of the little Jack also confirmed Shinji's judgment.
It’s too weak, really too weak, so weak that it’s unbearable to watch.
The strength of a Servant depends on four aspects: strength in life, legendary bonus, level of the Master, and the Servant's job.
The strength during life is the foundation of the Heroic Spirit. The stronger the strength, the stronger the strength of the Servant will naturally be.
The more outrageous the legend is and the more well-known it is, the higher the added value of the servants will be. If it is in the birthplace of the legend, even the world may change.
It goes without saying that the stronger the Master, the higher the basic attributes of the Servant.
Finally, let’s look at the Servant classes. For the same Heroic Spirit, Berserker has the highest basic attributes, followed by Saber, then Lancer, then Archer, Rider, and Caster. Assassin is the weakest.
During his lifetime, little Jack was easily defeated by a magician whose name was not left, and his strength could only be described as weak.
"Jack the Ripper" is world-famous, and Japan, where he is currently located, is one of the top regions in the legendary ranking, so the bonus cannot be low.
As for the Master level, at present, her Master can only be Shinji. Magic level C, a level that most magicians cannot reach in their lifetime, is definitely a first-class Master who brings bonuses to the Servant.
Therefore, the problem can only lie with the employment agency.
Jobs are a very interesting system, they are containers for heroes that should not exist in the world. They can restrict powerful heroes, such as Diarmuid under the lancer job without the most popular double swords and single blade; they can also improve weak heroes, the most typical example is "Jack the Ripper".
In "Fate Apocrypha", Jack, who has the Assassin class, uses the characteristics granted by his class to put powerful servants in difficult situations many times.
In "Fate Strange Fake", Jack's berserker job is even more exaggerated. Not only can he transform into a thousand, but he can also transform into a devil. He can escape unscathed from top servants like Hercules.
The little Jack who was pinned to the ground by Shinji did not perform at the level he should have. Although he would not be easily defeated by a magician like he was in his lifetime, he did not have the capital to compete with a regular servant. It was probably the level of the collection of vengeful spirits in his lifetime plus the bonus of legend and popularity, which was the extreme that Jack without a job could do.
But the question is, can a Servant without a job be summoned in the Holy Grail War? Those who use a Noble Phantasm like Iskandar do not count.
"Normally, no, but this time the situation is special."
Justisa's voice came late. She saw Jack's condition earlier than Shinji and found the answer while Shinji was thinking.
"A special case? Could it be our country?"
"That's right."
Shinji just said it casually, but he didn't expect it to be the right answer.
"The summoning of servants under the Holy Grail system is divided into two steps: first, connecting to the Seat of Heroic Spirits through the Holy Grail to achieve the descending of the spirits; second, placing the descended Heroic Spirits into a designated container to become Servant."
"This time, I tampered with Miss Fiore's summoning, allowing your soul to directly enter the assassin's vessel and replace the assassin's position. This resulted in the failure to implement the steps of connecting to the Seat of Heroes for the descent of the spirit. Just now, when you initiated the summoning ritual, you happened to initiate the missing steps and achieved Jack's descent. The first two summonings were unsuccessful because there was no suitable vessel, and there was no way to make Jack appear in the world. Finally, as the assassin, you stepped into the magic circle and gave Jack a person to possess."
"The reason why it was Jack is probably because you continued the summoning ritual that Sagara Houma interrupted. He probably intended to use the form of disemboweling Miss Rokudo Reika as a catalyst to summon 'Jack the Ripper'; it's really a pity that he died."
As Justisa said, according to the description in "Fate Apocrypha", because of the exposure of Hassan's information, Sagara Houma was ready to take an extreme approach and summon "Jack the Ripper" that no one would expect, and for this purpose he used suggestion magic to manipulate Rokudo Reika.
But he didn't know that even if Shinji didn't intervene and Jack was successfully summoned, he couldn't escape the fate of death. Rokudo Reika's desire for life touched the unborn children. In the end, Jack killed Sagara Heima and made a contract with the dying Rokudo Reika, becoming a third party force in this Holy Grail War that was not subordinate to Red or Black.
Shinji didn't care about the guy who was already dead. What he cared about was the relationship between him and Jack.
There were no Command Seals on their bodies, indicating that they were not master and servant, but according to Justisa, Jack was possessed by her, which made Shinji a little confused.
Justisa also gave an answer to this question.
"Dependency. The three elements that make up a Servant are the Spiritual Base, the Spiritual Qualities, and the Spiritual Instrument (container). She has the Spiritual Qualities of the Assassin, and you have the Spiritual Base and Spiritual Instrument of the Assassin. Only when you are together can you be the complete Black Assassin. Because you have the Spiritual Base and Spiritual Instrument of the Assassin, you have a dominant position. She depends on you to exist, and should be considered an ally spirit or a follower spirit."
If someone else listened, they might not understand what Justissa was saying, but Shinji could understand it. Justissa's explanation reminded him of a special servant - the moon goddess Artemis who came under the name of Orion.
During a certain summoning, the Moon Goddess forcibly intervened in Orion's summoning ritual, and finally the two of them descended together. The Moon Goddess had a spiritual weapon, and Orion had a spiritual character, and the spiritual base was influenced by both of them.
Because the Moon Goddess occupies the spiritual weapon, the Servant's image is that of the Moon Goddess, while Orion has been transformed into a bear puppet for unknown reasons.
Because the spirit belongs to Orion, the power of the Moon Goddess as a god is not manifested at all.
As for the spiritual base that was influenced by both of them, it was very confusing, with attributes leaning towards Orion, while the Noble Phantasm was that of the Moon Goddess, and the skills of both.
In normal operations, the Moon Goddess occupies the spiritual weapon as the main character, and Orion is a mascot, responsible for being cute and funny.
I guess this will be the way Shinji and Jack get along in the future. Shinji fights as an assassin, and Jack, who lacks fighting power, stays in the back and acts cute, as if they really have raised a daughter.
Thinking of this, Shinji couldn't help but smile, and his left hand was not so strong anymore.
Little Jack, noticing the change, immediately rolled over, escaping from Shinji's clutches and retrieving the four daggers.
Shinji couldn't help but touch his nose when he saw this scene.
I almost forgot that this is a bad boy who kills people at the slightest disagreement and likes to dig out people's organs.
PS: Scathach and Altria's spirits tampered with the first step, while Shinji simply ignored the first step and proceeded to the second step.
PS2: My daughter, just act cute from now on. Dad will take full charge of any fights and murders.
