"Whoa!"

As such a sharp sound of breaking the air spread over the trees, for a moment, Charlotte saw a light.

That's the reflected moonlight!

Moonlight emitted by the crystal clear surface of an arrow made of ice!

Like arrows, fierce ice spears burst out from the depths of the dark woods, grazed Felix's shoulders, and shot mercilessly at Charlotte's forehead, who was completely unresponsive.

"Charles!"

As the arrow-like ice spear was about to hit Charlotte's forehead, Sigmund let out a low roar and woke Charlotte up.

At that moment, Charlotte hurriedly ignored her image and threw herself on the ground next to her.

Almost instantly, Charlotte lunged to the side, the Ice Lance swept past where Charlotte had been, and landed on a tree behind her place.

"Bang!"

Suddenly, what looked like a tree with a history was pierced with great crispness, and a hole the size of a human head was pierced.

Charlotte's pretty face turned white at the sight of the sawdust flying from the trunk and the hideous hollows, and the thought that she had just been hit in the head by an attack that was enough to inflict such damage.

If she hadn't dodged just now, Charlotte would definitely be dead or alive!

"Whoa!"

Just when Charlotte was palpitating, another sound of breaking the air sounded.

Immediately, an afterimage. Suddenly appeared in front of Charlotte.

Before Charlotte could raise her head to see the true face of the afterimage, another afterimage flung out of the afterimage's body, like a whip.

It was a longsword with a cold arc of light!

The afterimage that came to Charlotte was holding a long-handled broadsword, bringing a whistling wind and slamming it at Charlotte.

"Bang!"

The next moment, a muffled sound sounded.

That's the sound of a greatsword slapping into a real thing!

It's just that it wasn't Charlotte who was photographed. It's about protecting Charlotte. Sigmund leaped up from Charlotte's body and stood in front of the greatsword!

"Peng..."

Sigmund's figure flew upside down and slammed into the trunk of a tree on the other side, a body the size of a cat. Blood flowed from the steel-colored scales.

"Sigmund!" That's all Charlotte can shout. Suddenly raised his head. looked at the afterimage standing in front of him.

It's an armed girl-type 'Automaton'!

He wears the gray-white armor of the Middle Ages, and holds a sword with a hilt of a meter and a blade of more than a meter. A large sword taller than its owner, a shield on the wrist of the other hand, and a steel helmet that covered the entire face.

From Charlotte's point of view, it can be clearly seen that the girl-shaped 'Automaton' in front of her has long pink hair in a shawl, a slender body, and a suit of armor and weapons, which is simply a Valkyrie.

"See? Felix stepped from behind the girly 'Automaton' and showed a smiling face.

"This is my 'Automaton', and it is also the trump card that attacked the puppeteers in the academy, gnawed away their magic circuits, and took their magic for myself, and I used it to ascend to the throne of the 'Demon King'!"

Possess the magic of other 'Automaton' for yourself? …

Hearing this sentence again, Charlotte's first feeling was disbelief.

There is no way to store two kinds of magic in an individual's body!

In other words, there are no two magic circuits in the body of an 'Automaton'!

This is the most basic theory of Karakuri magic, the 'principle of disharmony between magic activities'!

Now, Felix's 'Automaton' has eaten more than one 'Automaton', and Felix himself says that he will attack others in order to prepare for more magic.

Could it be that Felix's 'Automaton' can overcome the 'Magical Activity Dissonance Principle'? …

"Charles, you're naïve," Felix shrugged his shoulders and smiled happily.

"They all tried to fish me out, but only one person came, confirming that I was a 'Cannibal Candy', but they didn't mention it at all..."

"Aren't you pushing me? The smile on Felix's face began to distort.

"Force me to kill people..."

Charlotte shuddered, and her pretty face was full of pain.

Can't come by yourself? …

But until she saw Felix burn the 'Automaton' with her own eyes, Charlotte never wanted to believe that Felix, who had been helping her and approached her, was the 'Cannibal Candy'...

Didn't raise any vigilance? …

Faced with the object that helped her solve a lot of troubles and made her a little longing, how could Charlotte be vigilant? …

This may be the naivety that Felix said...

"It really helped me, Charr—" Felix slowly raised his hand, smirking like a demon.

"After I solve you, I will sue others, as a 'Magic Licker (CannibalCandy', you attacked me, I killed you in self-defense, and then find out those magic circuits hidden in your room, believe, no one will not believe it!"

"After all..."Felix condensed his magic and turned it into a streamer of wires that flowed into the 'Automaton' in front of him.

"I'm the head of the Discipline Inspection Commission, and whatever I say, others will believe it..."

As the words fell, Felix's 'Automaton', slender arm with heavy armor was raised nimbly, and the magic power surged out, turning into a stream of water above his palm, and then condensed into ice, turning into an ice gun.

"Kill her! Elisa! ”

At Felix's command, the 'Automaton' named Alyssa grabbed the ice spear and shot it at Charlotte in front of her.

"Whoa!"

The sharp sound of breaking the air sounded again, and the tip of the ice gun continued to expand in Charlotte's pupils.

But Charlotte couldn't see it anymore.

Sitting on the ground, Charlotte didn't do anything, staring blankly at the ice gun approaching her, thinking only one thing.

How do you apologize or thank that person? …

Obviously, that person has sued himself, and he must think carefully before acting, and don't put himself into it in the end.

As a result, although he chose to believe his advice, he had the slightest idea of not wanting to believe that Felix was a bad person, and even if he planned well, he acted recklessly.

As a result, I didn't have time to thank that person.

As a result, I didn't have time to apologize to that person.

Yourself, it's really naïve to can...

A tear slowly slid down Charlotte's cheek.

Charlotte closed her eyes and waited for her death.

The spear of ice reflecting the moonlight sliced through the void, and the sharp sound of breaking the air drowned out the sound of tears dripping from Charlotte's cheeks on the ground, and the sharp tip was aimed at Charlotte's heart, and it stabbed at her.

"Charles!"

Covered in blood, Sigmund could only watch as the Ice Spear burst towards Charlotte, his eyes split.

"Ding---!"

At this moment, a sound like a metal bump came from in front of Charlotte and into Charlotte's ears.

Charlotte opened her eyes, reflexively raised her head, and looked ahead.

Immediately, she saw...

In the moonlight, the shimmering droplets of water flew out.

It's an ice gun that has been scattered back into water!

In front of Charlotte, a protective barrier made of crystals stood in the way.

It was this protective barrier that snorted the incoming ice guns and protected Charlotte!

It took Charlotte a few seconds to understand what was happening, and she burst into tears once again as she looked at the protective barrier in front of her.

Charlotte had already seen this protective barrier in front of her in many exercises.

Therefore, Charlotte understands ...

In the end, who is coming...

In the end, who protected himself...

"Hey..."

As if to bring warmth to Charlotte's cold heart, a sigh rang out...

"Troublesome Miss..." (To be continued......)
