"— — — —"
Everyone in the pitch-black tunnel fell silent, making the air feel heavy and oppressive. It was really uncomfortable.
"Big Sister …"
An Li snuggled tightly in Xia Lu's arms as if he could only rely on her.
"Don't be afraid … Don't be afraid …"
Xia Lu just hugged An Li and stared at the three men in front of her as if she could see the intense battle between the three of them. Her expression was rather solemn.
As for Rozen, Magnus, and the dean, their reactions were all different.
Magnus just stood at the side and watched coldly with his guard up. He didn't plan to speak or explain.
Rozen's face was full of nonchalance as if he didn't know what he had said or done. He was very calm.
On the other hand, although the dean's expression didn't change, his gaze became sharp.
After a while …
"Did you see something here? Lord Anik? "
The dean said slowly. Although his tone was relaxed, it gave people a feeling that he was interrogating.
Along with this question, the strongest magician of the 19th century released a terrifying magic power that was like an invisible gravity that pressed down on everyone.
No.
To be more precise, it should be said that it was pressing down on Rozen's body. The others only felt the aftershock.
The magic power released by the strongest magician of the 19th century was like a raging wave. It reminded Rozen of the Horned Ghost.
The boldness brought about by the release of this power that had been accumulated over the years was truly extraordinary.
If it was an ordinary Puppeteer, they would have already succumbed to this kind of courage.
Even a Demon King-level existence would feel heavy and fearful when facing this Dean.
No matter what, since the Night Assembly was held once every four years, the Demon King would naturally be born every four years. However, the strongest magician in the 19th century would only be born once every hundred years. Just the difference in level was already different.
Even in the entire world, there were only a handful of people who could rival the strongest magician of the 19th century.
Compared to the dean, even Magnus was probably weaker.
In this academy, this man was undoubtedly the highest, strongest, and pinnacle existence.
There was no one here who did not fear him.
Unfortunately, this did not include Rozen.
"I did indeed see some disgusting things that would cause a huge uproar if they were to spread out. It might even cause the entire academy to be overturned."
Rozen endured the terrifying magic that could make a normal puppet submit on the spot, and smiled at the Dean.
"After all, there's actually such a facility underground in the academy, and there's even such a thing in the facility here. No matter how you think about it, it's impossible not to investigate, right?"
"For example, the British government."
"Another example is the association.
As soon as these words came out, a terrifying silence once again enveloped the entire area.
The dean's eyes finally narrowed. He looked at the calm and even a little provocative Rozen and could not help but ponder.
Clearly, even the dean was a little surprised.
He was surprised that Rozen could still withstand the pressure brought by him under such circumstances and brazenly brought up such a sensitive topic.
Even Magnus couldn't help but look at Rozen, his eyes flickering.
There was only one thought left in Magnus' mind.
That was …
(Just how unfathomable has he become now?)
The more Magnus thought about it, the more solemn his heart became.
After two years, Magnus knew that Rozen must have become much stronger than before, but he never thought he would be this strong.
Magnus already knew and accepted the fact that Yaya could single-handedly destroy God's Workshop. He didn't think that Bronson, who didn't even understand Eye of the Mind, could do anything to Rozen. But Rozen could withstand the pressure from the 19th century's strongest magus without batting an eyelid. Magnus couldn't help but be cautious.
Now, Magnus found that he couldn't see through Rozen.
Especially in this situation, he could be so fearless without Karyuusai's Moon Puppet. That was not something that could be done casually.
"Master …"
Perhaps Fire felt Magnus's solemn heart and said in a low voice.
"Shouldn't we take this opportunity …"
Magnus naturally understood what Huo Chui was trying to say.
Without an automaton, Rozen must be the easiest to deal with.
That must be what Fire was thinking, right?
That also meant that Fire didn't recognize Rozen's threat.
The lack of a doll was nothing to this man.
Fire didn't realize that at all.
So …
"Back off."
"… Yes."
Magnus gave a brief order, and Fire lowered her head and was silent for a while before retreating.
Fire couldn't help but look at Rozen's direction.
But the next second, Fire saw it.
Rozen was already looking at her, and his eyes were full of playfulness.
“.....！？”
Huo Chui's heart instantly constricted and became icy cold.
(He already knew …!)
Fire thought, but she didn't expect Rozen to look at the silent dean again as if he didn't notice anything.
"I'm joking."
Rozen, who caused one sensitive topic after another, suddenly lost all interest as he yawned and spoke indifferently.
"Whatever secrets there are in this place have nothing to do with me. I'd better hurry back to the dormitory to take a bath and have a good sleep."
Rozen said as he walked toward the front of the passage, brushing past the dean and Magnus.
The dean and Magnus let Rozen walk past them without saying a word. No one knew what they were thinking.
Then, the dean spoke as if nothing had happened.
"Alright, since we've found him, let's hurry out."
After saying that, the dean also turned around and walked forward.
"… Let's lead the way, Fire."
"… Yes."
Magnus and Fire had such a heavy conversation, and then took a step forward as well.
"Big Sister … We …?"
An Li finally dared to take a breath and raised his head to ask Xia Lu.
"Let's follow."
Xia Lu took a deep breath and helped An Li up.
The group of people walked through the tunnel with their own thoughts on their minds. They no longer spoke to each other and walked in silence.
Not long after, monsters that made people feel uncomfortable once again appeared in this place.
