Chapter 241: The Attack of the Annu Cult (1)

"Xue, Sheryl, wait a moment, don't be so rough!"

Seeing that there was no one around, Edward complained aloud.

Cheryl pulled Adelaide's arm so hard that her wrist felt a little painful.

"It's because you have nothing to do and you're wasting your time trying to come up with a competition."

Cheryl turned around and complained unhappily.

"It's just a little fun, isn't it fun for everyone~? Really, Sheryl, you're too serious. Be careful that you won't find a man to want you in the future."

"You damn girl."

Cheryl's cheeks flushed a little and she hit Adelaide on the head with her fist.

"It hurts! What are you doing all of a sudden?"

"It's all because of your nonsense. Besides, I don't need to find a man!"

"… Could it be that you are Lily? Eh!"

Adelaide was stunned for a moment. She broke away from Cheryl's hand and took a big step back, keeping a distance from Cheryl with a look of disgust.

"That's not the case! If it's yuri, then your sexual orientation is the problem, right?"

"What nonsense are you talking about? I'm devoted to cute girls. So, next time, don't suddenly pull me like a boy. It will cause others to misunderstand our relationship!"

Edward raised his index finger and emphasized seriously with a condescending attitude.

"Pervert. And let me warn you, it's best not to attack the girls that Alfred likes. He will really kill people, I'm not kidding."

Cheryl replied coldly.

"Don't say such scary things... I'm not like you and that guy. I just enjoy spending time with cute girls and I don't look at them with tinted (yellow) glasses at all!"

Edward ignored Cheryl's words, "Don't confuse me with Alfred," and continued speaking smugly.

"After all, a lovely beautiful girl is a sacred national treasure. How can I view her with dirty thoughts? Of course, I am also such a national treasure."

After Edward finished speaking, he gently placed his hands on his chest and proudly raised his chest, which was barely visible rising and falling.

"idiot……"

"Those who call others idiots are idiots! Also, what's wrong with that look in your eyes? Don't look down on flat-chested girls, I'm still growing! Also, men who only judge girls by the size of their breasts are all pigs!"

Adelaide retorted excitedly.

"You just said you like girls, why are you suddenly talking about men at this time? Forget it, whatever your sexual orientation is, it has nothing to do with me."

Cheryl shrugged her shoulders and didn't argue with Adelaide as usual.

"Hey!"

"We're here, let's just wait here."

Cheryl ignored Adelaide's dissatisfaction and stopped to speak.

She glanced at the gradually darkening sky outside the corridor window and took out her pocket watch to check the time.

"Is there really no problem according to Alfred's plan?"

Adelaide also put away his temper and asked Cheryl with some uneasiness.

Just the fact that Alfred informed Adelaide of the news last night was enough to scare her.

And Adelaide knew very well that Alfred had not told him a lot of information in order to avoid making himself and Cheryl feel uneasy.

"Don't worry. If the opponent is a despicable and cunning guy like Alfred, it will definitely be a headache to deal with him. But Alfred is our companion now and is quite reliable."

Cheryl said with a mocking smile.

"You really trust that guy. Haven't you just known each other for a short time?"

Adelaide asked, somewhat dumbfounded.

"Huh? How could I possibly trust someone who kidnapped little Rose?"

"Uh... Although I've been curious before, what is the relationship between you and Rose-senpai? Your real appearance is very similar to her."

"This matter has nothing to do with you."

(…Is this guy jealous of Alfred or Rose-senpai? She trusts Alfred so much, could it be that she has been having an affair with him for a long time?!)

This thought popped up in Edward's mind, and he distanced himself from Cheryl a little.

After that, the two had basically no conversation.

Just wait silently for that moment to come.

When the sunlight completely faded from the sky, night fell on Illya and Arya.

"How long do we have to wait?"

Adelaide inquired.

Now, the students are attending the Easter evening party banquet in the banquet hall.

The headphones on Adelaide's ears were tuned to the same channel as Liliana and the others, so she could hear the noisy noise coming from the banquet hall. Adelaide felt a little bored.

"The time is almost up, please be patient."

Cheryl closed her eyes and replied in a cold voice.

(What? You’re pretending to be cool. You’re not that kind of pretty girl, are you?)

While Edward was complaining in his heart, deafening explosions sounded one after another in the academy.

“Has it started yet?!”

?◇?◇?◇?◇?

—Wendy—

"Alas... The Demon King is still the same as always, he likes to take such exaggerated actions."

Luna looked at the campus where it seemed like fireworks were constantly exploding, and couldn't help but gently hold her forehead with her hand.

"It's a little exaggerated, but it might be surprisingly good as a tactic to disrupt the enemy. It's a little exaggerated though."

Wendy answered with a sweet smile, and repeatedly emphasized that what Alfred did was very exaggerated.

Special magic barriers were set up to protect buildings near where the bombs were planned to be buried.

Therefore, these explosions did not actually damage nearby buildings. The explosions only made a loud noise and released a large amount of smoke that would interfere with the flow of magic power.

It's just a simple sleight of hand.

Be it the Annu Cult or the Illya Alia school headed by Principal Alberta, Alfred did not intend to give them the opportunity to investigate what kind of magic barrier he had prepared.

At the same time as the explosion, various defense and reinforcement barriers were set up by the fairy girls and elven dragons.

These barriers can greatly enhance the abilities of the teachers and students in the academy without the person concerned realizing it, and can also help them survive when they are fatally wounded and on the verge of death.

It can also significantly weaken the puppets that may be released by the followers of the Annu Cult.

"Well, it seems that the other party is also panicking and plans to release the big guy right away."

Christina said as she summoned her scythe.
