Lainconnue: "So sorry guys, totally overlooked this chapter for release until now."
Thanks to all the reader who pointed this out to
"Let's chat."
Everyone reacted differently when the Principal slowly reined in his mana.
Ishtar was defiant but no mana ans she can't fight anymore.
Ikaros, Astrea, Avrora, and Kanon are not convinced.
Natsuki frowned at the sudden cessation of hostility from Edward.
Wu Yan replied.
"You're not going to say you know I was blackmailed into doing this, right?"
Ed, Ishtar, and the ladies flinched.
He saw that the principal was just gauging him?
Clearly, Wu Yan disrupted his tempo.
He grinned as if he hit the nail on its head.
"Principal, you need to give so credit."
The principal grimaced.
He kept his eyes on Wu Yan.
"Looks like you're not just all brawns."
The principal grinned.
"That's right, Wu Yan, I know soone blackmailed you into doing this!"
"Huh?'
Natsuki interjected.
"Why didn't you go after the real villains instead of making us the culprits in this?"
If the principal knew, he could have investigated the real villains and taken action instead of letting Wu Yan co after him like this.
Plus, it would be better to end this as soon as possible rather than risk his own death.
This is outrageous.
"Well, let's answer questions one by one."
The principal winked.
"Okay, Wu Yan, who is after my life?"
"Kingsford."
Wu Yan replied.
"Well, Kingsford and their allies, specifically, the Granville family."
"They were at each others' throats but I believe they ford a temporary truce."
"Granville is helping the Kingsford back into the political scene and they are trying to get executed."
"Okay, Wu Yan, I bet you don't know this."
The principal continued.
"Recently, an envoy was sent from the Kingsford family."
"The Kingsford did?"
Natsuki asked.
She snorted after realizing the ploy.
"They want to bargain with you?"
"yeah, they want to say that Felix was innocent and the whole thing was a sham."
The principal shrugged.
"Granville don't know about this."
"Either way, they would succeed regardless if the assassination was successful."
Natsuki analyzed the plan.
"Did they also tell you about this assassination ploy?"
"No."
Edward replied.
"This was in my plan. I knew they would do this from the start."
Natsuki flinched.
He saw this coming?
"I see."
Wu Yan sighed.
"Granville, they were under your control."
"—!"
The ladies gasped.
Edward told the Granville to tell Wu Yan to kill him.
"Ah, you knew, eh?"
Edward praised him.
"I told them to send soone to kill . I never specified it had to be you."
This was more a ntal ga than a ga of cat and mouse in the first place.
"What was the point?"
Natsuki cald down.
"What was the purpose of this?"
"Hey, Wu Yan."
Edward asked him.
"Do you know about the Machine Doll?"
"Machine Doll?"
The ladies asked back.
"Completely autonomous doll."
Wu Yan replied.
"A doll that can move without controllers and use magic independently without needing magic supply from anyone."
"Completely autonomous doll?"
The ladies gasped.
Dolls will lose power when they're far away from their masters.
They're like hunks of useless tal when completely devoid of mana.
Even Banned Dolls are unable to fight a duel without external mana.
However, if there was an autonomous doll, the need for the Puppeteer would be obsolete.
Every nation is focused on this research.
However, none have ever heard of anyone making a successful breakthrough in this field.
The field of creating the first Machine Doll.
