Shoujo Grand Summoning

"Ugh… I am so tired… I am gonna hit the sack."

"Wait, buster! The bed is mine!"

"What? You would rob your master of his bed?!"

"You are not my master! Plus, where am I going to sleep?"

"Hmph! You're a pet, right? Just sleep on the floor and watch the door!"

"Who's the pet?!"

"Ah! You're so noisy! Don't make me stomp you!"

"E-even if you say that… Wait, don't take your clothes off!"

"Proud dragons don't need clothes! So you shut your yap!"

"Ugh…"

Their voices pierced through the dorm walls like they were infused with magic. Wu Yan held his head in agony. Those two lovebirds are driving him insane.

Wu Yan just found out recently that Ash stayed next door.

"Wh-why am I cursed with misfortune…"

Wu Yan pulled his blanket up over his head if only this would reduce the noise a bit. Too bad, Ash and Eco fought like crazy cats. It also didn't sound like there is an easy conclusion to tonight's saga.

Forget sleeping, Wu Yan doubts he can get any peace of mind.

He kicked away his blanket and resisted the urge to drag those two out and throw them outside the dorm.

"I hate the board of this school…"

The problematic student, Ash Blake encountered an accident during the dragon-riding festival but when he fell, the Pal within him finally manifested.

Naturally, people also found that his Pal wasn't a dragon but a humanoid dragon that was more human than dragon.

Everyone is in a frenzy discussing this topic.

Forget what the students had to say. The Board of Ansullivan Academy almost fought one another over the treatment of Ash's Pal.

Her pal isn't a dragon and she looks like a girl. Hence, making her stay with other dragons seemed like an unethical thing to do.

They were basically two sides who argued whether or not she should stay in the stables. In the end, it was decided that his Pal was more human than dragon so she should be living in the dorm while Ash should look after her as she is his Pal.

This is the reason why Ash stayed with his Pal in the dorm room next to Wu Yan's.

So, Wu Yan's torment began.

He stared at the ceiling before sighing.

"It has been a while since I felt sleepy during the night. Goodbye, sweet sleep."

"If that's the case, Lord Rowan, why don't you have a chat with me."

Wu Yan's eyes widened when he saw something on his ceiling. He almost jumped up in shock.

"Lord Rowan."

The maid with green hair affixed herself to Wu Yan's room ceiling like a ninja. She gave him a polite smile before jumping down and giving Wu Yan a curtsy.

"How are you on this fine night?"

"Do I look fine? This is also not a good night."

Wu Yan weakly replied.

"More like, when did you get here? Cossette?"

"Just now."

She winked at him.

"Just relax, you can also do the things men do to themselves at night when nobody is watching, I won't tell…"

"That's rich coming from someone who just sneaked into my room?!"

Wu Yan said.

"What are you doing here anyway?! You know you're in a guy's room, right? Something bad could happen to you…"

"Oh, my... you would go after a maid such as me?"

"You don't know your own charm."

Wu Yan mused out loud.

Ignoring her status, Cossette is a very cute lady.

She isn't as pretty as Rebecca and she doesn't have Silvia's elegance. However, in terms of looks, she is still comparable to Rebecca and Silvia.

It seems like she truly isn't aware of this fact.

"Okay, whatever."

Wu Yan got up.

"Why are you here? You got something to say?"

"It's nothing, I just came here to give you a report on that thing you asked."

"A report?"

Wu Yan's eyes lit up.

"The Avalon Imperial Dragon Family?"

"Yes."

Cossette nodded.

She isn't sporting a smile anymore.

"Unfortunately, I didn't make as much progress as I would like. I did find some stuff on the Wise Dragon but even that is limited to apocryphal accounts. I found next to nothing about Avalon Dragons."

"My guess is that these Avalon Dragons' intel is classified in the vault of the Lautreamont Knightdom. I am sorry I can't dig any deeper as that would mean breaching certain regulations."

Cossette is genuinely sorry she couldn't be of more help.

Wu Yan appreciated the effort she gave despite it being a request from someone she only got to know recently.

"It's okay. Don't take it too hard."

Wu Yan assured her despite his slight disappointment.

"I am surprised you found legends with only a single day's time. I couldn't find a word on this anywhere."

"The Shelley family is a family of spies, I am here for that reason."

Cossette gave him a serious look.

"My inability to find details on the Avalon Dragons suggest that this matter is probably beyond the limits of even the Knightdom itself. I implore you to reconsider going down this path of searching for details on the Avalon dragons."

"You might drag the Knightdom into something big. Even Lord Rowan and Cossette might be on the hook should that happen."

Wu Yan stayed silent.

Cossette might sound like she is tooting her own horn. Obviously, she has confidence in her abilities.

The Avalon Dragons, maybe, Cossette had a point.

However, Wu Yan can't give up now.

It is his mission.

"I know..."

Wu Yan smiled.

"I will continue investigating with vigilance in mind."

"I couldn't ask for more."

Cossette lifted her skirt slightly as she bowed.

"Alright, I am going to call it a night here. If Lord Rowan requires my assistance, please call on me again."

"Oh, I will."

Wu Yan shrugged.

"Hey, next time you come sneaking into my room in the middle of the night, you better get ready to get bent on the bed."

"I will think about it."

Cossette giggled. Then, she vanished in a black blur.

"What a terrifying maid."

Wu Yan bitterly laughed.
