章節 704: -694- Entirely mismatched
People began to gather in Raphael's men's dormitory, right in front of Rozen's room, worrying about Rozen's situation. Even those like Charl, who didn't have much of a personal connection with Rozen, came here regularly.
"After all, I owe that guy a favor. If he casually dies, who will I owe the favor to?" Charl explained her reason for visiting.
However, Sigmund, Charl's Automaton, had a different perspective. "Charl doesn't have many friends usually. Now finally having someone she can interact with, it's completely normal to worry. Please understand her," he said, revealing the true feelings of his master.
Naturally, Charl blushed and grew angry at Sigmund's blunt words. Still, compared to the others who had a deeper connection with Rozen, she wasn't as anxious.
So, Charl turned her attention to Frey. "I've heard about your situation," Charl said while studying Frey. "Since the dissolution of the Divine Works, it seems you haven't given up on the Night Party and have achieved multiple victories, right?"
Charl demonstrated her continued interest in the Night Party.
It's true.
After the dissolution of the Divine Works, Frey seemed to be more determined than ever to win at the Night Party. She hadn't been absent once during these days.
Under these circumstances, Frey had achieved multiple victories without encountering the same level of danger as she did on the first night. There were two reasons for this.
Firstly, Frey no longer had only Rabbi as her Automaton. She chose four new battle companions from the Garm series, which consisted of a total of fourteen dogs. Together with them, she stepped onto the Night Party stage.
Typically, a puppeteer would only use one Automaton, as controlling multiple Automatons significantly increased the complexity of manipulation and drained magical power proportionally.
However, exceptions existed.
For example, the Akabane family was naturally skilled in group combat thanks to their Puppetry Arts, where multiple Automatons could be controlled simultaneously. Each additional Automaton provided an exponential increase in their combat capabilities. Additionally, having the Crimson Wing Formation to support their magical power consumption allowed them to control as many Automatons as possible for maximum strength.
Similarly, the Garm series of Automatons, being Banned Dolls, could independently provide magical power to a certain extent, had high autonomy, and were mass-produced machines. They had lower ability requirements, and even novice puppeteers could manipulate multiple Automatons without overburdening themselves. Through collaborative teamwork, they could unleash high combat prowess.
Considering this, Frey led a total of five Garm Automatons, significantly increasing her strength, allowing her to achieve a series of victories at the Night Party.
Today, Frey's strength might have propelled her into the top 50 participants. As a result, she had no reason to be defeated when facing opponents ranked below 90.
There was one more reason for this. The only individual capable of threatening Frey, Veyron of the Last One, had chosen to watch coldly during these nights. He didn't engage with Frey and impatiently fulfilled his standby duties, leaving the scene after an hour without any participation in battles.
In this manner, Frey had been thriving at the Night Party, achieving a continuous string of victories. Due to her exceptional performance, the Night Party's organizing committee even modified her registration code to "Surround Roar."
This is Frey's current registration code.
Regarding this, Charl had her doubts. "Since the Garm series won't be abandoned anymore, there's no need for you to participate in the Night Party."
Charl was puzzled about this. After all, Frey's heart had already gone berserk once. Even though it was fine now, there was no guarantee that it wouldn't lose control again when faced with danger in the future.
In theory, Frey should start avoiding dangerous battles as much as possible. However, the reality was quite different. "It's just... because of my heart..."
Frey's tone remained gentle but she gave her response. "A mechanized heart... it's too dangerous..."
Upon hearing this, the people present understood.
"Indeed, who would feel at ease with a heart that could go berserk unpredictably?" Subaru and Mutsura successively expressed their agreement.
"Moreover, since it's a mechanized heart, it's not strange for it to suddenly stop working for some reason one day. It's a matter of life and death."
In summary, Frey wanted her heart to recover its health.
However, all the projects related to organ research, development, and replacement were part of the Forbidden category. Given this situation...
"The only way to do that is to become a Wiseman."
Frey expressed her determination in this manner.
However...
"Mr. Loki doesn't seem to have given up on participating in the Night Party either," Subaru tentatively mentioned. "Perhaps, just like Miss Frey, he wants to become a Wiseman to restore his heart."
Compared to Frey, Loki undoubtedly had a higher likelihood of obtaining the position of Wiseman. Even though Frey's strength had greatly increased, it still fell within the top 50 ranks, which was a significant gap when compared to the Thirteen.
On the other hand, Loki, being the 7th ranked, was even praised for being able to compete with the previous Magnus. In comparison to Frey, he had a better chance of claiming the Wiseman's position. Frey could easily give up on the Night Party and leave this matter to him.
However, Frey didn't seem willing to do so. "I am... the older sister."
Frey displayed a rare hint of stubbornness.
"If I'm the older sister, then I should be the one to do it."
This was the reason Frey continued to participate in the Night Party.
"Alright..."
Charl fell silent for a moment, then let out a cold snort and turned away. "Anyway, if we cross paths, I'll definitely defeat you without mercy. Be prepared for that."
Charl issued this stern warning.
"Um..."
Frey shrank back timidly.
These two girls were complete opposites, one confident and fierce, the other self-conscious and timid, and their combat abilities were entirely mismatched.
But then...
"Boing..."
As Frey made that neck-shrinking motion, Frey's ample protrusion in front of her became rather elastic and swayed provocatively for a few moments, an unusually stimulating sight.
"...!?"
Charl's face froze, and her entire body turned ashen.
Indeed,
"Their combat abilities were entirely mismatched," Sigmund sighed. "After all, you're pad... pfft!"
Before Sigmund could finish that sentence, Charl, furious and embarrassed, slapped him away.
As for Yaya and Hinowa, their gazes towards Frey became more alert and hostile.
Only Subaru and Mutsura, as they watched this scene, couldn't help but swallow nervously.
Suddenly...
"Buzz..."
A sudden buzzing sound filled the air.
