People are in the heavens, playing until they lose contact

Chapter 22 Fleur
Early the next morning, Liszt met his opponent in the next round, ranked 98th, the glove holder with the code name Quiet Noise—Fleur!
It's just the form...

It's very painful.

Because when he saw her, he was not in a normal face-to-face way, but was wrapped in a net like a net bag like a cargo sent up, and the upper end was hung on the ceiling of the corridor and on the ground. It is some tools such as saws, nails, and hammers, so that people can understand at a glance what is going on with the sudden net.

"Okay, what are you doing? Lovely classmate Fleur?" Liszt stood at the door, looking at Fleur who was hanging in the air, and the giant dog who was also hanging inside, which should be her puppet. , asked a little speechlessly.

"Assassination." Fleur replied.

"Assassination? Assassinate who?" Liszt asked in surprise.

"you."

"We have enmity?" Liszt asked more and more strangely.

Fleur shook her head.

"Then why did you assassinate me?"

"Because I am your opponent in the next round. And I have seen your performance in the battle yesterday. I am not sure that I can defeat you with strong firepower, but I have a reason why I cannot lose, so I have no choice but to use this A despicable way to weed you out," Fleur explained.

"Then why did you tell me your motive now?" Liszt asked curiously.

"Because you asked."

Liszt was speechless.

I really don't know whether to say that classmate Fleur in front of me is naive, or that she is out of her mind.

"Well, can I trouble you to put me down?" Seeing Liszt's silence, Fleur asked.

"Wait." Liszt walked to the vicinity of the trap, checked the structure of the trap, and finally released Fleur from the ceiling according to the operating principle of the trap, then picked up the sharp weapon beside him, and started Unwrap the net wrapped around Fleur and her automata.

What followed was silent staring at each other. After a while, Fleur seemed to remember something again, and said to Liszt: "Well, thank you for saving me. In order to thank you, I specially made a lunch box for you."

Saying that, I really don't know where I took out a lunch box that was tentatively made of plants, opened it, and revealed the neatly stacked sandwiches inside...

"This, maybe it was also made to assassinate me." Liszt picked up one of the sandwiches, looked at Fleur in front of him with twitching cheeks and said strangely.

"Yes." Fleur admitted.

"Then do you think I'll eat it?"

"I'm 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 talk about what you put in it first." Liszt changed the subject.

"I originally wanted to put sleep medicine, but unfortunately I couldn't get it, so I put a lot of salt..." Fleur explained.

"Okay. Then why are you going to the night party?" Liszt put the sandwich in his hand back into the basket, sat down beside him, looked at Fleur in front of him and asked.

"For the family." Fleur replied.

"For the sake of the family, this is a big proposition, but for the sake of the family, there must be specific goals, right? For example, do you want to become a devil queen and get a special magic formula that can save your family, or do you want to change something in your family? In some situations, you need to use the privileges granted by the qualification of the devil king? Or else you want to prove something, so you must participate in the night party and win enough victories, and even get the final qualification of the devil king, which one are you?" I have already forgotten As for the plot, Liszt, who could not remember the specific situation of Fleur for a long time, inferred with his own thoughts.

"I can't say." Fleur said.

"I didn't ask you specifically, just the three categories I mentioned before, which category are you?" Liszt asked again.

"It should be the third type." Fleur thought for a while.

"Is there no other way? It can only be proved through the night party?" Liszt asked.

"Father said so."

"..." Liszt remained silent for a while before saying: "Then I can only say sorry. Because I also have things that can only be achieved by obtaining the qualifications of the devil king, so you should put away the current useless thoughts and work hard to think about it. Let’s figure out how to 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, Fleur?" Liszt, who came to Kimberly's office again to start after-school tutoring, asked Kimberly.

"What? Want to get some information from me?" Kimberly asked with a smile.

"I'm just curious, what is the reason why a girl who looks so cute chooses to assassinate her opponent and win the banquet." Liszt shook his head slightly and described.

"Assassinate your opponent? Did she attack you?" Kimberly asked in surprise.

"It doesn't count..." Then Liszt told Kimberly what he saw in the dormitory this morning in detail.

"Then I probably know what's going on." Kimberly pondered for a while, and told about Fleur's situation.

Fleur's father is not her biological father, but her adoptee. His name is Bronson. He was a student of the Royal Academy of Ingenuity a few classes ago, and he almost got the qualification of the devil king, so although he did not graduate as the devil king , unable to obtain many benefits and treatments that belonged exclusively to the Demon King, but it was also regarded as attracting attention and was invited by the royal family.

It's just that Bronson himself was quite proud, so he resigned from his job shortly thereafter, founded a studio called D-works, and carried out research on special ingenuity.

And it did come up with a result, a dog-shaped automata equipped with sound pressure control!

The dog-shaped puppet that Liszt had seen beside Fleur before was one of them.

But later, due to some reasons, the dolls of the Hellhound series were not purchased by the royal family and the military, so the Hellhound series became so-called failures. According to the rules of general institutions, they should be discarded , deal with...

So by analogy, the reason why Fleur insisted on participating in the night party and saying that she wanted to prove something was to prove to the world that the Hellhound series of automatic dolls are not failures, and that they still have the value of existence.

As for more, Teacher Kimberly is not too sure.

"Sounds like that, but unfortunately, I also have reasons for having 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's hole cards have been completely exposed. Although the firepower is still extremely powerful, many puppet envoys are afraid of it, but you have to admit that your combat methods are too simple. , if you don’t make changes, you won’t last long in the Twilight War.”
