"Bell-bell-bell-bell-"

The clock tower of the 'King Valprokis Karakuri Academy' struck the rhythm, bringing a light and solemn bell, causing it to echo in the air above the academy.

Behind the central lecture hall of the 'Valprokis Karakuri Academy', there is a stage sandwiched between the Faculty of Medicine and the Faculty of Law.

Light trucks lined up on all sides of the lawn, plugged in wires, ready to work, at the front of the lawn is a makeshift stage, behind which is a passage, on the left is the central lecture hall, and on the right is an ancient Roman auditorium, which spreads around the entire lawn.

On this lawn, students dressed in black robes-like dresses gathered here in twos and threes, chatting, looking nervously in the direction of the stage, and making some noises more or less.

This lawn is where the 'Night Party' is held, and it is also the battle ground for the 'Night Party' contestants!

Of course, the students who were able to gather in the arena and wear black robes-like dresses were naturally the 'Gauntlets' who were eligible to participate in the Night Party!

The students who were unable to attend the "night party" went up to the audience and chatted in a louder voice than the "gauntlets" on the field.

From the opening of the 'Night Party'. There's about fifteen minutes to go.

The official match of the 'Gauntlets' is at the moment when the clock rings at six o'clock.

Now, it's 5:15 p.m.

At half past five, the opening ceremony will take place, and until six o'clock, it will be used for the opening speech.

During this waiting time, the 'gauntlets' in the arena were left alone, and the audience in the audience was taking advantage of the time to enjoy the food bought from the nearby food salesmen or stalls, as if they were going to a circus to watch a play.

This is not a strange thing either.

For the 'Gauntlets'. The 'Night Party' is naturally able to compete for the throne of the 'Demon King'. Win an important contest, but for those students who are not eligible to participate in the 'night party', the 'night party' is just a form of entertainment.

So, people can see it very clearly. In the audience. Salespeople of bento, snacks, drinks, and even liquor are working in an orderly manner with one stall after another. They were all busy, running around in the audience.

With a group of girls, Wordless and Charlotte walked together. When they arrived in the audience, the black robes-like dresses they wore and the gloves on their hands revealed the identities of the two as 'gauntlets', and many eyes were gathered here.

Charlotte kicked the ground in annoyance, grumbling.

"Why don't you just go in? Isn't that compelling? …”

"It's just as eye-catching when you enter!" Wordlessly, he snorted at the noisy spectators who were holding a festival.

"And you see, these people are like they're coming to see a monkey show, are you willing to go on the show and be a monkey? …”

Charlotte was speechless, and soon opened her mouth again, as if she wanted to say something, but a voice sounded nearby and drowned her out.

"Pancakes~~Freshly baked pancakes~~ Does anyone want them? ~~”

The moment she heard this voice, Astrea's wing-like ornaments above her ears immediately moved, her eyes lit up, and she beckoned excitedly to the source of the sound.

"Me! I'm going to! Give it to me! ”

"Yes!" The smiling salesman trotted over with a box full of pancakes, a young girl who looked a little older than Charlotte and was quite lively and cute.

"Astrea-chan, didn't you just have lunch? On the side, Xia Yin pulled Astraea's clothes and spoke softly.

"Overeating like this is not good for your health..."

"Eh~~~" Astrella suddenly let out a disappointed sound.

"But, people really want to eat..."

"No! Astrea-chan! Nagisa crossed her waist like a sister and taught her a lesson.

"Girls can't be too delicious in this kind of public place, otherwise, it will damage the image..."

"That..."Seeing that things turned into a situation where I didn't know if I would buy it, the girl who sold the pancakes had a look of embarrassment on her face and froze in place.

Seeing this, he sighed wordlessly and took out his wallet.

People came over specially to say that they wouldn't buy it, but it was very embarrassing.

"Excuse me, please bring me a pancake..."

"Thank you..." a smile reappeared on the girl's face, and she was about to say 'thank you for your patronage', but when she saw that she was speechless, she was stunned for a moment, and then, her eyes radiated a light.

"You're ScarletEyes, Wordless, aren't you? …”

"Uhh

"Do you know me? …”

"It's a pleasure to meet you!" The girl did not answer, but grabbed the wordless hand that was holding the purse in her hand and was stunned, and opened her mouth happily.

"That's right! This pancake is for you! Celebrate your victory at the Night Party! ”

"No... That's embarrassing..."

"You're welcome!" The girl stuffed a pancake into Wordless's hand, then glanced at Wordless shyly, suddenly poked her head out, 'clicked', and kissed Wordless's face.

"Ah~~kissed~~" The girl screamed, slipped away from the smoke, and fled without a trace, leaving a stunned speechless hand holding the pancake, stupid on the spot.

In the next moment, beside him, bursts of biting cold began to rise.

"Sure enough, it's a pervert..."Charlotte said coldly.

"With an aftertaste on your face," Nagisa said angrily, puffing out her cheeks.

“Master！ A sucker! Bad! Even Astrella counted up, her face full of indignation.

Icarus and Natsune didn't say anything, but there was a little uneasiness in their eyes, as if they were afraid that their sweetheart would be snatched away by others.

That moon was even more silent, just staring at Wuyan with a pair of eyes from Gujing Wubo, which brought an indescribable sense of oppression to Wuyan.

"Didn't I get anything right?!" Speechless, he succumbed.

"How do I know what happened to that girl just now, how could she suddenly kiss her?!"

"Hmph..."Charlotte overlooked.

"That's probably your fan..."

"Fans? …”

"You're one of the Rounds, and you're going to have a fan base," Charlotte said, giving her a wordless look.

"What's so strange about that? …”

"Okay..."Speechless could only sigh again and raise the pancake in his hand.

"To eat or not to eat? …”

"Of course!" The indignation on Asterea's face disappeared in an instant, and she replaced it with joy and took the pancake in Wordless's hand.

"You should refuse at this time!" Nagisa couldn't help but make a noise.

"Astrea-chan, you're going to let my brother escape like this!"

"But the pancakes are innocent!" Asterella said this with a straight face, took a hard bite of the pancake, and chewed happily.

"Delicious!"

Looking at the pretty face full of happiness, everyone present could only let out a wry laugh, but they couldn't complain anyway.

At this time, on the lawn, the bands around the stage began to blow their trumpets, and the birds were also deliberately released, soaring and flying in the air.

"Oooh oh oh ————!"

The onlookers applauded and cheered.

Because, that was the precursor to the opening ceremony of the 'Night Party'!

"This time, you have to go if you don't get it!" Charlotte calmly tightened her dress.

"Alright, let's go!"

Wordless shrugged his shoulders and took Natsuki, Icarus, Astrea, Nagisha, and Natsune, a line of five girls, and moved towards the battlefield of the 'Night Meeting'.

Just as Wordless stepped onto the lawn representing the battlefield of the Night Meeting, a man in a tuxedo broke away from the 'Gauntlet' who was queuing up, as if he was about to skip the opening ceremony, and passed by Wordless's side.

For a moment, when the man passed by Wuyan, his figure paused, and then, Wuyan's face froze, and he also paused.

As if he had accomplished some task, the man left the scene in a hurry, standing there without looking back and raising his hands.
