The roll call sounded, "Ninety-seventh—Sacred Blaze, take the stage."
"what?!"
Amid the commotion of the audience, Loki stepped onto the battlefield with the Cherubim, and a petite knight followed slowly behind him.
"Two thirteen people were demoted?!"
"The night party has just begun and we can see a battle between thirteen people! Awesome!"
A group of people who didn't have to participate in the battle started chatting happily, and some people who were eligible for the night party also cheered up.
Loki looked at Lei Zhen with murderous eyes and said, "I remember I told you to give up."
"I remember that too. I refused."
Lei Zhen raised his head and responded simply.
The giant dragon roared beside her, and Xia Lu looked at Youzhu beside her.
"Ready to go, is that okay?"
She said viciously.
"Alice."
Chapter 75: Sword Emperor Loki
The Walpurgis Royal Academy of Mechanics was shrouded in dusk.
In a forest, Loki was walking on a path between the trees. The Cherubim followed behind him, looking at his master with shining eyes.
In front of them, there were some tables and chairs placed on the lawn, seemingly for the students to rest.
"Loki."
Seeing him coming, a young girl stood up from the stool, her long hair swaying in the wind.
As the sun sets, the bright moonlight shines on her white dress, emitting a faint glow, as if there is another bright moon in the forest.
"You're here?" the girl said softly, and her slender shoulders suddenly trembled.
"...I was the one who invited you in the first place."
Loki slowly stepped forward, and as soon as his eyes touched the girl's cheek, he suddenly glanced away.
"Don't stand all the time, sit down." He took off his half-length cloak and draped it over the girl.
"Loki...you are so gentle." The girl stroked her cloak and smiled faintly.
"...You're shaking right in front of me, it's really annoying." Loki said casually, sitting next to the girl. "...I haven't asked your name yet."
The girl was stunned for a moment, then smiled self-deprecatingly. "I'm the Complete Control Vibration MK5."
"That's not a human name."
"You should have noticed that I'm an automaton."
"You are a human." Loki responded immediately, his tone firm and decisive.
"..."
"I'll tell you a secret." Loki looked at the girl beside him. "Although you should know, my heart is made of machinery."
He looked at the bright moon in the sky and leaned back in his chair. "If I admit that you are a puppet, then I am also a puppet."
A breeze blew between them, and the girl's hair was blown gently against Loki's face by the night wind.
Soon, the girl whispered softly, as if telling a secret, "Sophia."
"Sophia."
Loki muttered, the corners of his mouth suddenly raised slightly, but immediately straightened.
Sophia nodded slightly, and then fell silent.
She secretly glanced at Loki's face, and after a few seconds, she said as if pleading, "Um... Loki, I have a request."
"ask?"
"Hmm..." Sophia lowered her head, her shoulders trembling slightly. "I... hate war. I... hate watching others die... or killing others myself."
Tears fell gently and landed on the girl's knees.
Loki couldn't help but reach out his hand... but pulled it back midway.
He didn't understand what he should do at this moment. He clenched his fists in frustration, feeling anxious about his own powerlessness.
"so..."
The girl lowered her head and spoke softly, her tears no longer falling.
"Please kill me."
"——?!" Loki's heart stopped beating in an instant.
"I...actually, used to be human, until a year ago."
"...You are now too."
"Well, Rocky told me I was human, so..."
Sophia raised her cheeks, and a smile as soft and beautiful as a white rose bloomed on her face.
"Rather than dying on a battlefield or in a laboratory, I would rather die as a human being at Rocky's hands."
Those were eyes full of tears and complaints. Loki couldn't reject them coldly, so he could only speak vaguely.
"...I understand, but..."
Put all the tenderness into it and say it clumsily and rudely.
"That's a matter of the future. When a war breaks out and you stand on the battlefield..."
"We've made an appointment."
"it is good."
Sophia's hand gently touched Loki, and the boy grabbed that hand and squeezed it a little hard.
Behind them, a gray starling sat on a branch, shaking its head.
Then, it gently flapped its wings and flew into the night sky.
......
"I heard you were planning to be demoted."
The young man with honey-blonde hair sat across from Loki and said affirmatively.
"The Night Club Executive Department's information protection capabilities are very substandard."
"Haha..." Rosenberg waved his hand. "Nursery rhymes are now in the sight of many people."
Loki crossed his arms over his chest and turned his face away, trying not to look at the petite knight behind the young man opposite.
"So... you can't resist that giant who can rise from the ground at any time?"
"..."
Rosenberg held his cheek and threw out an envelope with the D-works logo on it.
"We want you to test out Tong Yao's abilities, if possible..." He leaned over, resting his elbows on his knees, and slashed his other hand across his neck.
"Attacking the puppeteer will disqualify you."
"How could that be?" Rosenberg shrugged. "I just asked you to do something with her puppet."
There was a strange glint in his eyes. "Of course, we can help you."
A knight puppet at the door took a step forward.
"...Father...will that man agree to you?"
"We didn't expect him to be such a progressive man."
Rosenberg gave a mocking smile. "It just so happens that our technology is somewhat similar to yours."
He pointed at Loki's heart and whispered, "Human experiment."
"The study of mysteries, the pursuit of truth, and the development of science are the paths we humans should take, and magicians must contribute to this end."
"That's nice to say, but this man who almost became a demon king is nothing more than a fool who was swept up in the pursuit of progress," Rosenberg said.
Aren’t you guys almost the same?
Loki's gaze slowly shifted to the petite knight behind Rosenberg.
Whether it's D-Works, Germany, or this academy, magicians all want to create humans.
Everyone wants to be one step ahead and get the divine technology.
After all, this represents... weapons.
The country that obtains unparalleled weapons will dominate the next thousand years.
Silence stretched across the room as Rosenberg waited patiently.
After a few seconds, Loki spoke slowly.
"...good."
"It's a pleasure working with you." Rosenberg raised the corner of his mouth and leaned back in his chair.
"but..."
"Ok?"
"Change to another doll."
Loki looked at the petite knight holding a tower shield behind Rosenborg, who was completely different from the other knights' burly figures.
"...Why?"
"My Cherubim is an offensive puppet. Look at that shield... She's a defensive type, right?"
"..." Rosenberg looked at Loki suspiciously and folded his hands.
After a while, he slowly spoke.
"Row."
......
"Cherubim, turn around!"
“I am ready.”
Heat surged, the air twisted, and a violent storm emerged from the Cherubim's body.
The black-haired doll's body was very strong, and the violent 'Magic Sword' Cherubim could not stop it, and Tong Yao didn't even use the doll.
In a flash, the Cherubim transformed into a giant sword that was nearly as long as an adult.
"Then knock down the 'spear' first!"
Loki raised his right hand and swung it down violently.
The greatsword kept spinning as if being danced by a giant, approaching Sigmund.
The dragon flapped its wings and flew, and its speed in speed mode easily avoided the giant sword's slash. Ye Ye and Lei Zhen took a step at the same time, defense was their responsibility.
The petite knight rushed forward, blocking them from the battlefield.
Ye Ye jumped up and kicked, but was easily blocked by the knight.
Lei Zhen took the opportunity to punch the knight, but the latter just took the blow without moving.
The cold air spread and the green grass was covered with white frost.
Ice fog suddenly appeared beside the knight. Ye Ye and Lei Zhen hurriedly pushed it away. In an instant, the moisture in the atmosphere condensed.
The knight's movements suddenly became sluggish, and the movement of his body at the molecular level almost stopped.
Iruri released a fierce cold air, staring at the petite knight with frozen eyes.
