Chapter 22 Fleur
Early the next morning, Liszt met his opponent in the next round, ranked 98th, the holder of the glove with the code name of Quiet Noise - Fleur!
It's just a form...
It's very painful.
Because when he saw her, he did not meet her in a normal face-to-face manner, but like goods being delivered, wrapped in a net like a net bag, with the upper end hanging on the ceiling of the corridor and on the ground.
There are some tools such as saws, nails, hammers, etc. People can understand what this sudden net is about at a glance.
"Okay, what are you doing? My lovely classmate Fleur?" Liszt stood at the door, looking at Fleur hanging in the air, and the giant dog that was also hung inside, which should be her doll.
, asked somewhat speechlessly.
"Assassination." Fleur replied.
"Assassination? Assassination who?" Liszt asked in surprise.
"you."
"Do we have a grudge?" Liszt asked more and more strangely.
Fleur shook her head.
"Then why do you want to assassinate me."
"Because I am your opponent in the next round. And I have seen your performance in yesterday's battle. I am not sure that I can defeat you with strong firepower, but I have a reason why I can't lose, so I have to use this
A despicable way to eliminate you." Fleur explained.
"Then why did you tell me your motive again now?" Liszt asked curiously.
"Because you asked."
Liszt was speechless.
I really don’t know whether to say that the classmate Fleur in front of me is naive or that she is mentally abnormal.
"Um, could you please put me down?" Seeing Liszt's silence, Fleur asked.
"Wait a minute." Liszt said and walked to the vicinity of the trap, checked the structure of the trap, and finally put Fleur down from the ceiling according to the operating principle of the trap, then picked up the sharp weapon next to it and started to do it.
Untied the net wrapping Fleur and her automaton.
What followed was a silent look at each other. After a while, Fleur seemed to remember something again and said to Liszt: "Well, thank you for saving me. To thank you, I specially made a lunch for you."
As he said that, he really didn't know where he took out a lunch box made of plants, opened it, and revealed the neatly stacked sandwiches inside...
"Isn't this also made to assassinate me?" Liszt picked up a piece of sandwich and looked at Fleur in front of him with her cheeks twitching and said strangely.
"Yes." Fleur admitted as expected.
"Then do you think I'll eat it?"
"I'm very good at cooking." Fleur responded.
"It has nothing to do with whether you are good at cooking or not."
Fleur didn't speak, but she acted like if you don't eat, I'll cry, which made Liszt even more speechless.
"Okay, let's first talk about what you put in it." Liszt changed the subject.
"Originally, I wanted to put sleeping pills, but unfortunately I couldn't get them, so I put a lot of salt..." Fleur explained.
"Okay. Then why did you go to the night party?" Liszt put the sandwich in his hand back into the basket, sat down aside, looked at Fleur in front of him and asked.
"For family." Fleur replied.
"For the sake of your family, this is a big proposition, but you also need to have specific goals for your family, right? For example, do you want to become the Demon King, obtain a special magic spell that can save your family, or do you want to change someone in your family?
In some situations, you need to use the privileges granted by the Demon King qualification? Or else you want to prove something, so you must participate in the night party and win enough victories, and even get the final Demon King qualification. Who are you?" I have already forgotten it.
As for the plot, Liszt, who had not remembered Fleur's specific situation, used his own thoughts to deduce it.
"Can't say." Fleur said.
"I didn't ask you specifically, just the three categories I mentioned before, which category do you belong to?" Liszt asked again.
"It should be the third type." Fleur thought for a moment and said.
"Is there no other way? I can only prove it through a night party?" Liszt asked.
"Father said so."
"..." Liszt was silent for a while and then said: "Then I can only say I'm sorry. Because I also have things that I need to become a Demon King to achieve, so you'd better put away your current useless thoughts and work hard to think about it.
How can you defeat me?"
Fleur also fell silent, stood up, and left Liszt's dormitory with her automaton with a somewhat depressed expression.
…
"How much does the teacher know about my next opponent, Frey?" Liszt, who came to Kimberly's office again to start after-school tutoring, asked Kimberly.
"What? You want to get some information from me?" Kimberly asked with a smile.
"I'm just curious about the reason why a girl who looks so cute would choose to assassinate her opponent and also win the night banquet." Liszt shook his head slightly and described.
"Assassination opponent? Did she attack you?" Kimberly said in surprise.
"It doesn't count..." Then Liszt told Kimberly in detail what he saw in the dormitory this morning.
"Then I probably know what's going on." Kimberly pondered for a moment and told Fleur's situation.
Fleur's father is not her biological father, but her adopter. His name is Bronson. He was a student of the Royal Academy of Artificial Intelligence a few years ago, and almost obtained the qualification of Demon King, so although he did not graduate as a Demon King
, unable to obtain many benefits and benefits unique to the Demon King, but it was still highly regarded and received an invitation from the royal family.
However, Bronson himself was quite proud, so he resigned from his place of employment soon afterwards, founded a studio called d-works, and conducted research on special skills.
And it did produce results, a dog-shaped automaton equipped with sound pressure operation!
The dog-shaped doll that Liszt had seen beside Fleur before was one of them.
But later, due to some reasons, the Hell Dog series of dolls were not purchased by the royal family and the military. As a result, the Hell Dog series became so-called failures. According to the general agency's disposal rules, they should be discarded.
, deal with it...
So by analogy, the reason why Fleur insisted on attending the night party and said she wanted to prove something was to prove to the world that the Hellhound series of automatons were not failures and that they still had the value of existing.
As for how many more, Teacher Kimberly is not sure.
"It sounds very similar to that. Unfortunately, I also have a reason to obtain the qualification of Demon King, so I can only say sorry to her." Liszt was silent for a moment, shaking his head with some regret.
"After yesterday's battle, your puppet trump card has been completely exposed. Although the firepower is still extremely powerful, which makes many puppet users fear it, you have to admit that your combat methods are too simple.
