In the dark night, the cold moonlight lit up Walpurgis Academy with an eerie calmness.

Charlotte waited in a corner with Sigmund perched on her shoulder.

She kicked at a small stone near her left foot. Her eyes glimmered in the moonlight like an elf.

Creak

The sound made her stop playing with the rock.

Wu Yan walked out with an enchanting smile.

His deep red eyes formed such a stark contrast with the silvery night that Charlotte was at a loss for words.

Gauntlet holders have their epithets.

It's like a pseudo name contestants use when they enter into the competition. Naturally, the school vetted the names and titles.

They usually took the most distinctive feature to use as the epithet.

For example, Charlotte is known for her violent and feisty nature. Hence, she was named Tyrant Rex when she received her gloves.

Raishin is known for his abyssal results so he was named as the Second Last.

Raishin's title was most likely due to mischief by a certain labcoat-wearing teacher (Kimberly).

Wu Yan is known for his 5 astounding beautiful Automata always tagging along with him. Plus, his harem can kick asses.

But,they ended up naming him Crimson Eyes anyway.

Charlotte didn't know why they would do this to him.

Now, she understands why.

In the night, this lord of the Night could steal souls with his bloody eyes.

Crimson Eyes suited him.

"It's late, shouldn't you be asleep?"

Charlotte's silence was met by Wu Yan's greeting.

"You're going to look bad with dark circles around your eyes, you should go hit the sack."

"I don't need you to worry about that!"

Charlotte huffed while blushing red. She also made sure to give him a killer stare too.

"I sleep enough every day, okay?!"

"Good to hear."

Wu Yan shrugged.

"So, what brings you here?"

Charlotte nodded.

"Well, it's just that..."

Wu Yan looked around.

"Let's go for a walk."

Charlotte followed Wu Yan as they went into the main street.

It's dark but not yet midnight.

Even so, the street is devoid of people.

Wu Yan and Charlotte walked along the moonlit path.

"Where are your dolls?"

Charlotte asked because she couldn't stand the silence.

"You're one of the top 13, aren't you afraid that people might try to take you out before the competition?"

Inside the Academy, nobody can attack another Puppeteer.

Anyone who wishes to duel a higher-ranked student needs to challenge people when they have their automata around.

Students who don't want to be harassed by dozens of challenges usually just deposit their automata under the care of the school.

This way, they won't be harassed.

But, this creates a risky situation for them.

There are people who are almost at the 100th threshold.

To get the entry ticket. They wouldn't mind taking out some of the competition to ensure they can participate.

This is why Charlotte always made sure Sigmund was with her.

"You forgot that Natsuki can manipulate space?"

Wu Yan continued.

"I can transfer my magic power into her and make her teleport here to help me in an instant."

"Plus."

Wu Yan grinned.

"You're here, aren't you?"

"D-Dummy..."

Charlotte turned her head the other way.

"Or, are you trying to pull a fast one over me?"

"I am fine with that."

Wu Yan said.

"It's at the darkest time that one's nature comes out into the light. Isn't this fine, I get to see someone in their raw forms?"

Charlotte inhaled deeply.

Wu Yan sighed in turn.

"At least, getting hurt outright is better than being fed a sweet poisonous lie."

"You're a dummy."

Charlotte hid her expression beneath her bangs.

"You're the biggest dummy of them all."

"Perhaps, being ignorant is a blissful thing. Being too smart is annoying sometimes..."

Wu Yan shook his head.

"But, I don't reckon you're here for a lesson on character analysis, yes?"

"I don't need your lesson!"

Charlotte protested.

"I am..."

"Charlotte of the Belew house, I know."

Wu Yan stole her words.

"Well, Miss Belew, pray tell, what the miss wishes to convey to me?"

"Stop that!"

Charlotte glared at him. Then, she stretched out her right hand.

There's an engraved necklace there.

"This."

Wu Yan gasped.

"A protective charm with magic in it?"

"You saw through it?"

"I thought you only had strength going for you. I didn't think you knew that much about magic."

"Well, I know a lot more than I let on."

Wu Yan rolled his eyes. He asked with a slight tone of concern.

"So, are you giving this to me or?..."

"It's not a gift."

Charlotte fidgeted.

"It's a thank you."

"You're not being honest with yourself."

Wu Yan received it anyway.

"Well, Ikaros has got my back covered. I probably don't need this barrier charm."

"I hope you don't have to use it."

Charlotte huffed.

"I won't hold back when we meet at the Walpurgis Night."

Wu Yan nodded.

The two continued walking under the veil of the moonlight.
