Chapter 1675: Defeat, the enemy made at first glance
The angelic and regal lady of frost charmed Charlotte, Frey, Raishin, Yaya, and Sigmund for a second. Then, they raised their guards again.
It didn't take long for them to deduce that the lady of frost was the reason the 27 Heimguarders and guards were frozen in statues after ice bloomed from them.
To take down nearly 30 individuals at once, everyone knew a moment's carelessness would mean losing to her.
She probably had Ice manipulation magic circuits.
"Oh, let me introduce everyone."
Wu Yan waved his hand before wrapping his arms around the shoulder of the frosty lady.
"Remember I said Nagisa had 2 personalities?"
"2 personalities?"
Charlotte continued.
"Yeap, this is her other personality, Avrora."Wu Yan grinned.
"Only when she goes into battle mode will this personality come out."
Everyone glanced at Avrora again.
It's not unheard of but it's rare to see automata that can transform between battle and non-battle mode.
It's her battle-mode personality, that much is obvious.
Now, is not the time.
"Introductions outside the president's mansion?"
Raishin sarcastically asked.
"Why don't we sit down at the cafeteria?"
"I appreciate the invite..."
Wu Yan shrugged.
"But, I got business here. I will catch up with you guys later."
"it would be too late when you're done!"
Charlotte pleaded with him.
"Come back with us, Yan!"
"Yan?"
Wu Yan chuckled.
"This is the first time you didn't call me 'perv' or 'buster'."
"Come back with me, I will call you anything you want."
Charlotte forced a desperate smile onto her face.
"Come, let's go."
"Ah, so touching and warm."
Wu Yan mused out loud.
"If you were like this from the start I bet you would be more popular."
"I don't need to be popular!"
Charlotte said with anguish in her voice.
"Please, listen to me just this once!"
"Ahaha..."
Wu Yan scratched his cheeks.
"Man, this is the first time you begged me like this, you're putting me in a tough position."
"Yan..."
Frey also begged Wu Yan to stop.
"You can't kill the principal, there is no going back after that."
"Really, now?"
Wu Yan is composed like a calm lake.
"Alas, I already tried to kill him once."
"He isn't dead yet, I know you're not doing this of your own volition."
Raishin growled.
"You can still make it back, just plead your case to the principal, I-..."
"And..."
Wu Yan interrupted Raishin.
"What do you think? Is the principal going to forgive or trust me like that?"
Raishin knows it sounds silly.
It is probably a faction on par with the Kingsfort, if not more powerful.
These kinds of factions exerted a large influence on the social and political landscape.
"Oh, by the way, the one who told me is one of the highest-ranking officials in the student body."
Wu Yan shook his head.
"How is it going to sound in the legal courts? My words against everyone else's?"
The answer is apparent.
Plus, the noble is someone close to the king.
The king would believe in the noble more than the peasant.
He has no smoking gun and he stands to lose in trial.
"Henriette!"
Charlotte yelped.
"She is a victim too. She can testify for you, right?!"
"Ah... Good try, but a bit naive, think about it from my PoV."
Wu Yan smiled.
"Even if a miracle happened and they believed me, who is going to cover Henriette?"
Charlotte flinched.
"I assume you heard the story from her."
Charlotte flinched again.
"Her life is in the hands of the douchebag. If I gave up now, what's going to happen to her?"
Charlotte couldn't help but be moved even if this situation is desperate, Wu Yan admitted he did this to cover for Henriette.
"The school will protect her!"
"Kimberly-sensei is also here!"
Raishin tried to intervene.
"I am sure Kimberly-sensei and the magic council will do something to protect her."
"Look, you guys need to come up with a better plan."
Wu Yan said.
"I can protect her with my power, why am I still doing this?"
Charlotte and Frey went silent while Raishin tried to figure it out.
This is the academy, they can't do anything major here.
Small attempts can easily be thwarted by Wu Yan here.
"Unless I can protect her 24/7 for her whole life, there is no way the assassins will stop coming for her. Now, who can cover for her all the time?"
"..."
Frey and Raishin murmured slightly.
"I will!"
Charlotte stood up.
"She's my sister, it's my duty to protect her, you don't have to bear it."
"Bear it?"
Wu Yan sighed.
"Well, you're right in a way. But, as I am currently, the blackmailer is just a slightly clever clown. However, he is a foe you cannot beat at the moment. It is not yet time."
Wu Yan told them off.
"Now, let me pass."
"—!"
Raishin, Frey, and Charlotte exchanged looks before they unleashed their magic powers.
"Looks like we have to beat some sense into you and drag you back."
