The sudden voice startled everyone in the room.
"It's … it's you?"
Frey was also taken aback, and when she saw who it was, she was surprised.
Not only Frey, but everyone else was also stunned.
Rozen turned his head and looked at the person, but his expression didn't change.
"You came at the right time, O 'Gast Villon."
The person who came was Villon.
"In the end, it still came to this?"
Velon didn't pay any attention to anyone present. It was as if he had accepted his fate and was ready to risk it all. He slowly walked into the office.
Immediately, Veron ignored everyone present and walked directly towards Olga.
"You …"
Looking at Villon who appeared in front of her, Olga couldn't help but be stunned.
What made Olga even more stunned was that Villon just stared at her for a while, then turned around and faced Rozen.
"Come on."
Velon, who had already equipped Sleipnir's armor, assumed a stance, and coldly said to Rozen.
It was obvious that he was ready to protect Olga.
Xia Lu, Loki, Frey, and Anri were stunned by the situation in front of them, and for a while, they couldn't react.
Rozen, on the other hand, looked at Villon as if he realized something.
"You're also a member of the association, right?"
Rozen's words made everyone's eyes widen.
"You're also a member of the association?"
Even Olga was surprised, as if she didn't know about it.
Villon was silent for a while, then said coldly.
"I'm the son of White Rose."
As Veron revealed his identity, everyone's faces tensed up.
But Rozen suddenly understood.
He understood why Villon was so protective of Olga.
Because Villon was the son of White Rose, and Olga was the granddaughter of Golden Rose. Both of them were the children of Rosette's cadres, and they were destined not to be together.
As the cadres of the oldest magic association, Rozen could imagine what kind of checks and balances existed between the Roses and the Roses.
This kind of check and balance was absolute. Pulling one hair would affect the whole body. Once a faction was biased, the association would definitely erupt in internal strife.
The Roses had to be independent. If the two were to form an alliance, the balance within the organization would be destroyed.
Therefore, if the two children of Rose developed feelings for each other, the two of them would definitely be forced to separate, or even have their memories forcibly erased.
For example, Villon and Olga.
Yes.
Villon and Olga were a couple.
Perhaps, their relationship was opposed by the association, and in the end, they were forcefully separated.
Villon's expression was cold, but when he looked at Olga, there was a hint of tenderness and affection that others could not detect.
Olga, on the other hand, looked at Vaillon with a blank and ignorant look. Clearly, she had no idea why Vaillon was so protective of her.
Olga's memory must've been erased by Golden Rose.
Villon, on the other hand, seemed to have escaped a disaster, so he still remembered Olga and helped her.
If Rozen guessed correctly, Villon, like Olga, was sent by Rose to lurk in the academy in an attempt to win the night assembly and obtain the Divine Mechanism.
However, Villon had no interest in the Divine Mechanism, he only wanted to help Olga.
Olga wanted to become the Demon King, and Villon wanted to help her.
Olga, on the other hand, had a headache because of Rozen's existence. She felt that Rozen was an unimaginable enemy that she couldn't defeat. Because of that, Villon targeted Rozen in the night assembly, trying to defeat Rozen.
That was the reason why Villon targeted Rozen.
Of course, it was also possible that all of this was Villon's one-sided love for Olga, and Olga didn't love him at all. But if that was the case, Olga, as the granddaughter of Golden Rose, should know the son of White Rose.
Therefore, Rozen speculated that the man and woman in front of him were likely to be a pair of bitter lovers.
Olga didn't know about Villon at all. Only Villon silently protected his beloved.
"You've defeated Golden Rose, and the rest of the Rosebushes have retreated. The academy's crisis has been resolved. There's no need to target Olga anymore."
Villon said lightly.
"If you don't want to let her go, then come at me. I'll take you all on."
Villon said in the coldest tone, showing his unwavering determination.
This made the others look at each other and secretly raised their magical power.
Upon seeing that, Villon also raised his magical power.
Rozen, on the other hand, silently watched all of this without saying anything or doing anything.
Just then …
"It's better to leave the matter of dealing with you to us old fellows who only know how to act after the fact."
As they spoke, a group of people approached them.
They were none other than the students of the academy who had been kept as hostages until An Li released them. One by one, they regained their freedom and stood up once more.
The academy's dean stood at the head of the group.
"Lord Anne." The Dean looked at Rozen and said sincerely, "Can you give these two to me?"
The dean asked Rozen for instructions.
None of the people present felt that it was strange and unexpected.
Because they all saw Rozen's strength and witnessed the whole process of Rozen's crusade against Astrid. They only admired Rozen's strength, and there was no other thought in their minds.
If it were someone else, the dean didn't need to ask for instructions.
This was an autonomous territory, and the dean was the king here. He had the right to deal with all criminals who attacked the academy.
But since Rozen was standing there, the dean had to ask for instructions in person.
Otherwise, it would be a huge loss to offend Rozen.
"What do you want to do?"
Rozen ignored the dean's sincere words and asked straightforwardly.
"It's nothing. I'm just sheltering them in the name of the academy." The dean didn't hide it and said straightforwardly, "They must have a lot of information about the association. I need it."
The dean didn't beat around the bush and told Rozen his plan.
He knew very well that if he hid anything, he would definitely be targeted by Rozen.
In that case, it was better to ask Rozen to do him a favor.
Rozen, of course, knew what the dean was thinking and curled his lips.
"Do whatever you want."
Rozen replied with such a sentence.
But …
"That Forbidden Doll's Absolute Monarchy can't be kept, lest Io's research be used by someone else."
With that, Rozen didn't wait for anyone to respond and directly threw a costume into Loleilei's body.
Loleilei's singing stopped abruptly, and a burning smell came out of her body.
"You … what did you do …!?"
Olga couldn't help but get excited.
"Don't get excited, I just burned the circuit of Absolute Monarchy in her body. I deliberately avoided the heart, so she just lost her magic now, there's no other problem."
After that, Rozen turned around.
"I've done what I should do. You can do the rest."
Leaving such words, Rozen left with Setsugatsuka.
Only the people present looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
Rozen left the dean's mansion and went outside.
Irori, Ye Ye, and Komurasaki were observing Rozen's expression.
Rozen raised his head and looked at the sky. No one knew what he was thinking.
