<h4>Chapter 1626</h4>


    Walpurgis Academy, Tortoise dormitory.


    Wu Yan got up early in the morning. He tidied himself up so he looked ready to kill at the club.


    It''s a school holiday. so the students here are all free to do what they want except for the kids who are stuck in detention or extra sses.


    It''s a good day, the weather is extra fine.


    Just a perfect day for a date.


    Nagisa, Kanon, and Astrea slept in the same bed. So it''s not surprising that they woke up at the same time to see Wu Yan dressed to kill.


    "You look happy..."


    Nagisa grumbled.


    "Onii-chan, are you looking forward to the date that much?"


    "Date..."


    Kanon is blushing slightly.


    "I also... want a d...."


    "Ugh."


    Astrea said with a bored look.


    "I also want to go on a date."


    "I am not actually going out to have fun."


    Wu Yan roamed his gaze over the three of them.


    "Stop making a fuss."


    "Uuu..."


    Nagisa, Kanon, and Astrea lowered their heads in dejection.


    "Master..."


    Ikaros passed a purse to him.


    "The currency has been prepared."


    "Thanks, Ikaros..."


    Wu Yan rubbed her head before looking at Natsuki and Nagisa. He shrugged.


    "Well, I am heading out."


    "Ugh."


    Nagisa, Kanon, and Astrea looked like they had something to say.


    "Be careful..."


    "Don''t forget to bring some tea leaves back."


    Natsuki nced at him.


    "Also, use some protection, I don''t want to hear you getting involved in some kind of shotgun wedding ''cause you got someone preggo, okay?"


    Wu Yan almost fell to the floor.


    "What do you think I am going to do to her?!"


    "Master..."


    Ikaros looked anxious and worried.


    "Do you really not need me to tag along?"


    "Just leave it to me."


    Wu Yan assured her while rubbing her head.


    "I don''t have any skills but I am a True Ancestor, nobody can kill me"


    Ikaros nodded.


    "Okay."


    Wu Yan opened the door.


    "I am heading out. If anything happens just call out to me in your mind."


    Natsuki, Nagisa, Kanon, and Astrea nodded.


    Wu Yan left the dorm with a smile.


    "Master..."


    Ikaros sped her hands together.


    "Please be safe..."


    By himself, Wu Yan left the dorm as the other students looked on with their own thoughts.


    "Oh, you look happy."


    Someone''s disgruntled voice entered his ears.


    Charlotte stood in the shadows of a nearby tree with a displeased look.


    Her golden locks were glimmering from the faint rays of light that hit her. She''s still wearing her uniform despite it being a school holiday. Sigmund sat on her shoulder.


    "Looking for Frey?"


    Charlotte smirked.


    "Man, are you dumb or are you just too nice? It''s not worth the trouble."


    "Sheesh, looks like someone is in a bad mood early in the morning."


    Wu Yan rolled his eyes.


    "If you are softer then people wouldn''t call you a T-rex,"


    "I am not messing around."


    Charlotte chased after him as he was steadily making his way to the main entrance.


    "If you know her plight then you''re going to be severely disappointed."


    "Oh?"


    Wu Yan gave her a side nce.


    "Did you hear something?"


    "Charl spent the whole day gathering intel."


    Sigmund spilled the beans.


    "Looks like she really doesn''t want to see you date Frey."


    "Silence! Sigmund!"


    Charlotte turned beet red in an instant.


    "I will turn your chicken meat into raw vege!"


    "So dishonest."


    Wu Yanughed.


    "Okay, Miss Charlotte, why don''t you tell me your intel?"


    "Miss Charlotte my butt!"


    Charlotte gave him a nasty leer.


    "I just heard some background stories about Frey, specifically about her guardian."


    "Guardian?"


    Wu Yan scratched his cheek.


    "You mean the one paying for her tuition?"


    "Yes, Divine Works, that''s the name of her benefactor."


    Charlotte exined.


    "Divine works?"


    Wu Yan furrowed his brows.


    "Sounds like they think too highly of themselves, they think they''re divine?"


    "Well, they can back it up. Thepany won a title under the British Army''s openpetition for Magic Circuits."


    Charlotte frowned.


    "Ever heard of Silent Roar?"


    "A magic circuit?"


    Wu Yan shrugged.


    "I think that''s Rabi''s magic circuit, right?"


    "Divine Works holds the exclusive right to use the Magic circuit."


    Charlotte nodded.


    "Rabi is a prototype they want to use in order to impress the British Army."


    The Walpurgis Night is a preeminent event for promising Puppeteers. It''s also a ce where old and new facese to see the talented ones duke it out.


    This is the perfect stage to show off their results and research.


    If the husky automaton is excellent then the British army will definitely want to install the circuits on their hound-type automata.


    "So, Frey wants to kill the Second Last to advance."


    Charlotte grinned.


    "Second Last isn''t weak, Frey can never win. That would make her doggie automata look poor."


    "This is why you''re trying to dissuade me?"


    Wu Yan scoffed.


    "Frey just wants her Magic circuit to be the chosen circuit for the British Army so she wants to kill Raishin, is that it? It is all in order to increase sales for Divine Works?"


    "Yes."


    Charlotte nodded.


    "That''s the background story, bummer, right?"


    Wu Yan gave her a meaningful look.


    "You think that''s the only reason?"
