Chapter 292 - Chapter 4: The Trap

Time flowed like water, never stopping.

On the third day of Emiya's enrollment at the Royal Academy of Machinart, he received the Machinart knowledge from Kimberly and uploaded it to the chat group.

Kimberly, in turn, received the Einzbern's homunculus technology from Illya.

This technology amazed her.

After all, this was the Einzbern family's technology, accumulated over a thousand years.

It was a family's legacy, and a top-tier one at that.

Kimberly was naturally astonished.

However, Machinart was also the core of this world.

It could be said to be the greatest invention in this world, and in terms of value, it was not inferior to the Einzbern's homunculus technology.

It might even be superior.

Emiya initially tried to learn Machinart, but after reading it a few times, he gave up.

It was simply too complicated.

It was better for him to train with Nen or Haki.

As for the Gundam, he would just let others help him build one.

In these three days, Emiya also got a little used to life at the academy.

His job was to do nothing.

On the surface, he was Kimberly's assistant, but in reality, Kimberly had no intention of actually using Emiya as an assistant.

So Emiya was idle all day long.

For example, right now, Emiya was walking aimlessly on the main road that ran through the academy from north to south.

It connected the various lecture halls, the cafeteria, and the eight dormitories.

Emiya had just come out of his dorm and was on his way to see Kimberly to ask for something.

However, to Emiya's surprise, he ran into an acquaintance on the road.

"Yo, isn't that Raishin?" Emiya greeted him.

This acquaintance was none other than Raishin Akabane, who had enrolled with him and scored second to last.

The main male protagonist of this world.

"It's you." Raishin narrowed his eyes.

"Congratulations. I heard you became Professor Kimberly's assistant."

Emiya nodded calmly.

"Thanks to Professor Kimberly, she didn't kick me out but made me her assistant instead. I have to say, Professor Kimberly is a good person."

But Yaya, who was standing beside him, didn't hesitate to expose Emiya's charade.

"Liar! You must have bribed that woman to become her assistant."

Emiya put on a fake look of embarrassment.

"You got me. I used a honey trap."

Raishin sighed helplessly.

"There's not a single true word that comes out of your mouth."

Emiya was also helpless.

"It's mainly because no one believes me when I tell the truth. Can you believe it?"

Raishin asked, "What's the truth?"

Emiya said seriously, "The truth is that I'm a person from another world. I bribed Kimberly with magic from another world and became her assistant. Right now, I'm thinking of ways to make her my subordinate."

Raishin put on a look of 'I don't believe you.'

"You're full of lies. There's no hope for you."

Emiya's face was expressionless.

"When no one believes the truth, what can I do?"

Yaya looked at Emiya with disdain.

Emiya was too lazy to argue.

He asked curiously, "You looked very serious just now. Did you run into some trouble?"

Raishin shook his head.

"No. I'm building up my killing intent."

"Killing intent?"

"Yes." Raishin nodded.

He was about to say something when he suddenly saw something.

He said he would excuse himself, quickly went around Emiya, and walked quickly forward with Yaya.

Emiya turned around and saw that Raishin had blocked a beautiful blonde girl.

The girl had a graceful face and a well-proportioned body, making her an incredibly dazzling beauty.

But she had a very unpleasant look on her face, which completely ruined her fairy-like beauty.

An aura of hostility radiated from her, like a ferocious beast.

A cat-sized dragon was perched on her hat.

Its head looked like a crocodile or a lizard, but its face had a noble air.

It had two horns on its forehead, and its body was as soft as a cat's.

It had four wings on its back, which looked more like butterfly wings than bird wings.

Its entire body was covered in scales with a metallic sheen.

After Raishin blocked the beautiful girl, he spoke without any hesitation.

"You must be Charlotte Bilo."

When Emiya saw this, he immediately understood.

Oh, this was the first meeting between the male and female protagonists.

How unexpected that he would witness this scene.

"A second-year student, one of the top thirteen members of the Night Party. A strong candidate for the next Demon King with a three-to-one bet at the underground casinos of London. Her registered code name is the 'Tyrant,' which makes her a true Tyrannosaur."

Raishin rattled off Charlotte's information, showing that he had done a lot of research.

However, Emiya's attention was drawn to the dragon on Charlotte's shoulder.

Without a doubt, it wasn't a real dragon but a machine-doll created with Machinart.

Just like a true man has to pilot a Gundam, every boy has a dream of becoming a dragon knight.

Emiya was no exception.

While there were dragons in the depths of Orario's dungeon, they were only wyverns and were hard to tame.

So when Emiya saw Charlotte's machine-doll, he suddenly thought, "What if I build a dragon myself and become a dragon knight?"

Dragons were very cool.

As Emiya was considering the possibility, Charlotte and Raishin on the other side were already preparing to fight.

The dragon on Charlotte's shoulder let out a roar.

It flew off Charlotte and, in a flash, shed its small animal-like appearance.

It was wrapped in black mist, and a dark substance covered its body.

From it grew thick limbs, claws, and wings.

The smoke soon dissipated, revealing a giant dragon.

It was about three meters tall, with a massive body about eight meters long.

Not only did its size increase, but it also became muscular and strong.

With well-developed wings and horns, it was imposing and powerful.

Emiya watched the entire process of it transforming into a dragon but couldn't help but click his tongue.

Three meters tall and eight meters long might seem big, but to Emiya, it was too small.

Heracles was already over two and a half meters tall, and this dragon was only a bit taller than him.

It was just too small.

Emiya's Nen beast, the Dragon of Greed, was fifty meters long.

He estimated that if he were to build a machine-doll dragon, it would have to be at least a hundred meters long to be considered decent.

Boom!

Just as Raishin and Charlotte were about to fight, an iron ball covered in spikes flew toward Raishin and Yaya.

The two of them noticed it at the same time, jumped away, and avoided the attack.

The iron ball didn't give chase.

Instead, it flew toward Charlotte.

The dragon named Sigmund spread its wings and swatted the iron ball away.

But that wasn't the end of it.

Automatons wearing knight's armor, a barefoot woman, and a six-legged monster suddenly popped out from the crowd.

They were all automatons.

The three automatons attacked the dragon from three different directions.

However, the three automatons were too weak.

After the dragon took flight, it stomped the knight automaton onto the ground, then swung its tail, destroying the other two.

The three automatons were severely damaged and lost the ability to fight.

But more automatons emerged from the crowd and attacked the giant dragon.

While each one was no match for the dragon on its own, when they worked together, it was a different story.

A semi-transparent water fairy automaton shot a spear-like stream of water.

The giant dragon dodged it, but a snow elf automaton used its cold air to freeze the water stream into ice.

Then came the attack from above.

A harpy-like automaton created a strong gust of wind.

The giant dragon lost its ability to float and fell onto the frozen ground.

At this moment, a new enemy appeared.

A golem-like giant charged at it.

The giant dragon, unable to dodge because it had slipped, had its wings grabbed by the giant and was unable to move.

"It's an automaton, after all. It can't compare to a real dragon."

Not only was it small, but it was also too weak.

If a real dragon saw this, it would probably die of anger.

Although it was just an automaton and not a real dragon, it still brought shame to the dragons.

Of course, he had to praise the coordination of these automatons.

Their teamwork was impeccable.

It looked like they had gone through a lot of rigorous training to achieve such coordination.

Then, the iron ball that the giant dragon had swatted away earlier came flying back, and it seemed like it was about to crush the giant dragon.

Raishin intervened.

As the righteous male protagonist, how could he tolerate such a lopsided fight?

So he gave Yaya a look, and as Raishin's loyal admirer, Yaya immediately understood and went forward to block the iron ball heading for the giant dragon.

As one of Shouko Karyuusai's masterpieces, Yaya could stop an out-of-control train, let alone an iron ball.

This surprised everyone-the attackers, the audience, and even Charlotte, who was being attacked.

No one expected Raishin to help Charlotte at this moment.

The people behind the attack couldn't sit still.

Their meticulously prepared trap was about to succeed, but a random person suddenly appeared and completely ruined their plan.

No one could tolerate that.

If Emiya's plan was ruined, he would definitely teach the other party a harsh lesson.

And the people in front of him clearly intended to do the same.

So a group of people made Raishin an enemy and began to surround Raishin and Charlotte.

However, they had underestimated Raishin, or rather, Yaya.

As a forbidden automaton, Yaya was very strong.

Under Raishin's control, she displayed a power not inferior to Charlotte's.

The man and woman working together easily defeated the group of attackers.

The entire process could only be described as a complete rout.

Emiya was also impressed.

Within a few minutes, the two had defeated the attackers, earning cheers from the surrounding students.

However, after watching the fight, Emiya's mind could only think of two words.

"Crude."

This fight was too crude.

The group's initial coordinated attack on Charlotte was pretty good, but when they teamed up to fight Raishin and Charlotte, the fighting became crude, and the level of coordination dropped significantly.

Emiya even wondered if they had been replaced.

In addition to the crude coordination, the fighting style of the automatons was also very crude.

It was the same few moves over and over again.

It looked flashy, but in reality, it was extremely unrefined.

On the other hand, Yaya's fighting was quite good.

Both her attacks and her dodges were very well-executed.

But that was about it.

Any fighter from the King of Fighters world could beat several of them.

But on second thought, these people were just students.

It was natural for their fighting to be a bit crude.

Not every student could be mature and have no flaws.

On the other hand, the magic that the automatons released with Machinart made Emiya's eyes light up.

He saw the potential of Machinart.

This gave Emiya a certain interest in machine-dolls.

After a few minutes, the battle ended.

It was a complete victory for Raishin and Charlotte.

However, after defeating all the attackers, Raishin didn't continue to challenge Charlotte.

Instead, he threw a smoke bomb and left under its cover.

What can I say? He really had the style of a ninja.

With the disappearance of the smoke, the commotion came to an end.
