The chain of commandments returned to the portal.
Then, the original portal expanded 5 meters wide as Ikaros, Natsuki, Astrea, Avrora, and Kanon appeared from the portal.
Three people stood in opposition to them.
The principal who lost an arm was still grimacing in pain.
Shin, the attacker who continued to hold a combat stance as he waited for orders to keep attacking.
And, an elegant youth who stared at them with animosity and killing intent.
Cedric Granville is the one who told Wu Yan to kill the principal. The owner of the half Machine Doll.
Shin was the one who got whipped by Natsuki for interrupting Wu Yan.
However, Shin never expected to win anyway. He was just a diversion to rescue Edward the principal.
The two parties stared at each other on the charred battlefield.
Wu Yan grinned when he confirmed Cedric's presence.
"Oh, what is this? Night Party Committee Chairman, fancy meeting you here."
The youth responded with hesitation, killing intent, anger, and internal struggles.
The youth found it hard to explain herself.
"I wanted to ask, what are you doing here, but I could venture a guess."
Wu Yan snickered.
"You told me to kill the principal."
Cedric turned grim.
She used Henriette to blackmail Wu Yan.
Yet, he appeared to save the principal.
This apparent contradiction is the reason why she couldn't say anything.
She is exposed.
She controlled her emotions before putting on the guise of the youth known as Cedric again.
"To think Scarlet Eyes would be someone who can defeat the 19th century strongest magician, I am impressed."
"I wasn't aiming to defeat."
Wu Yan said.
"I was ordered to kill the principal which was what I was doing splendidly until a while ago."
Cedric grimaced.
"Enough, this is enough."
"Enough?"
Wu Yan feigned ignorance.
"Why?"
"Thinking about it, killing the principal would cause too much trouble."
Cedric argued.
"Just spare the principal for now."
"Oh no..."
Wu Yan grinned.
"I must complete the mission or someone would target Henriette."
"You..."
Clenching her teeth, Cedric sighed.
"Enough, Scarlet Eyes, you already know about the deal between the Granvilles and Edward. We will stop all actions against Henriette, let us stop this conflict now."
"How regretful..."
Wu Yan replied.
"I was expecting you to come snapping at me after I took Edward's arm."
"Oh?"
Cedric tried to hold back her growl.
"What makes you say that?"
"Eh, naturally..."
Wu Yan blew her cover.
"He's your dad, my dear Elf Speeder, Alice Bernstein."
"Alice Bernstein?"
Natsuki flinched.
Alice, the one who had been faking her identity as Cedric stood up.
As she stood up, petals fell from Cedric.
Her face, skin, clothing, and other parts peeled off, revealing her true self.
She was a beautiful teenager with silver hair glowing like a meteor.
Her emerald eyes and sculpted nose made her stand out like a work of god.
Natsuki, Ikaros, Astrea, Avrora, and Kanon turned dark upon seeing the lady.
She was using a fake identity when she blackmailed them.
"I assume this is the first time we met?"
Alice greeted him.
"Now, tell me, how did you figure out my identity?"
"Think, Alice, think back upon when we first met."
"From the start?"
Alice frowned
"Walpurgis Night Committee chairman, Rounds no.10, Cedric Granville."
She introduced herself as that when she was planning on blackmailing her scapegoat.
"Well, let's just treat you as such for now."
"Treat me as such, eh?"
Alice bitterly laughed.
"You knew about me and the plan from the start. You deliberately followed the plan so you can really kill the principal?"
"I never planned to play along."
Wu Yan said.
"I just figured it would be funnier this way."
"Oh, we are similar then."
Alice grinned.
"To pleasure ourselves by using others."
"Nope, we're not the same."
Wu Yan said.
"I don't go around messing with other people for the sake of fun. You, on the other hand, would incriminate others just because you feel like it."
"Thanks."
Alice grinned.
"I like destroying things I have liked ever since I was a child; they never changed."
"Oh?"
Wu Yan nodded.
"Before I congratulate you, here's a warning."
"I've had it up to here with your little games."
Wu Yan stared at her.
"Stop messing with Henriette and her sister. Otherwise, your dear father won't lose just an arm like today."
Alice's grin froze up when she heard that vow.
have liked ever since I was a child; they
Wu Yan left the burning battlefield with his ladies after giving Alice one last stern stare.
