You call this the mastermind?

Just like Kevin mentioned.

Gray came to visit Mrs. Chelsea for the second time today precisely because of the group of truth believers in the suburbs and their rituals.

He didn't pay much attention to this before. Even if he noticed that the world around him had changed due to the ritual, he had no intention of paying attention to it.

After all, he could handle a similar situation after some preparation. Although the lunatics of the original Shinrikyo religion acted crazy, they were still very strong. Now that thousands of people gather together, it is strange that there is less noise.

However, not long ago, when he discovered that the wonderful bells were ringing throughout the world as the ceremony continued, he could no longer sit still.

Gray had only seen such an astonishing sight in historical records, and those were descriptions of miracles performed by the "true gods" of the two major churches.

Now that the demonic tide has receded, the "miracle" has come again, and he is still the child of destiny who has always been ignored...

The meaning of this situation cannot be described by a simple "big event".

Juniors with superficial knowledge may just be curious about this and talk about it.

But those of them who are well aware of the seriousness of it have basically treated this matter as a serious event on the level of a "world disaster".

Of course, whether it is a disaster or a blessing is not yet certain.

After urgent contact with the family, Gray hurriedly came to visit Mrs. Chelsea, an important ally of the family.

The two parties thus determined the next three things that need to be done.

First, find out what the Son of Destiny preached to the truth believers.

Second, find out whether the truth believers have plans to continue making sacrifices and the details of the plan.

Third, find out whether the operation of the world has changed because of the appearance of the child of destiny.

These seem to have nothing to do with them, but in fact they are closely related to the interests of the many pure-blood wizard families that control the world. They must understand it as soon as possible.

Other than that, things like appeasing the Original Truth Cult, in-depth investigation of everything related to the Child of Destiny, etc. are all trivial matters that need not be mentioned.

After all the discussions were completed, Gray had time to take care of the "illegitimate child" issue that he had been paying attention to before.

As a result, as soon as he ran to find his son, he heard him chatting with the "illegitimate son" and mentioned something about an engagement...

As of now, Gray actually no longer believes that Egger is the illegitimate son of his ex-wife.

Because just now he actually discovered that Mrs. Chelsea, who was very serious when discussing business matters, was now inexplicably uncomfortable in her legs and feet.

This information sheet may not seem like much, but combined with the scene he saw in the morning, it made him think a lot.

So Gray completely confirmed that the young mixed-race Egg was having an affair with Isabella Chelsea, a famous single witch in the wizarding world.

The two of them played very strangely.

In this case, how could Ige be the illegitimate son of his ex-wife?

But it was precisely because of this that he was surprised when he heard his son say that Iger was engaged, and from the tone of voice, it seemed that he was not Mrs. Chelsea.

Even though Iger and Mrs. Chelsea are just lovers.

But there is no way someone like Mrs. Chelsea would ask her lover to have an affair with another woman, let alone an engagement.

And looking at the way his son Kevin acted abnormally when he saw him, it was clear that this matter was not just a simple engagement issue...

"It's my engagement with a girl from the mixed-race association."

When Kevin was speechless and didn't know what to say to hide it from his shrewd father, Meren had already spoken with an embarrassed look on his face.

"Kevin met her when he came to work with me before. He was very supportive of our marriage, but I actually didn't agree with it and was thinking about how to dissolve it."

Gray was startled when he heard this, and then understood.

This should be the marriage that Iger made before he hooked up with Mrs. Chelsea.

But now that he has hugged Isabella's lap, of course it is impossible to think about other women.

As for why his son mentioned his marriage in front of Iger...

Looking at the obviously different images between the two parties, and considering the fact that Kevin's fiancée was kidnapped together with Iger, it is not difficult to imagine the young man's little thoughts out of vigilance.

"Focus on the important things and don't always think about the boring trivial matters!"

He glared at his son for this.

What a joke. They are already together with Isabella, so how can they possibly be with Isabella's daughter again?

Kevin didn't know all this, and he was even a little surprised to see his father believe Melen's words so easily.

But after all, he came from a big family. Although he was always nervous when facing his majestic father, after the tension passed, he was able to hide his emotions in his heart.

So he lowered his head and pretended to be ashamed.

Gray then sat across from Meren, leaning on a cane, and asked him about some "daily trivial matters" while pretending to be chatting.

Basically, it is about family situations, relatives and friends, hobbies and so on. At the same time, he also carefully observed Mellen's appearance and conversation style.

This is actually him making final confirmation.

The results did not exceed expectations.

Although Melen and his ex-wife are somewhat similar in appearance, upon closer inspection, the similarity is only in the general outline, and the actual appearance is completely different.

And from Mellen's relationship status and speaking style, he could not find any trace of his ex-wife.

He had actually conducted an investigation before, but he also found no definite evidence that could prove that there was some kind of in-depth relationship between the two parties.

As for the communication issue that Kevin considered to be an important question, it involved privacy, so it was not easy to ask more questions.

But considering that his ex-wife was promoted to deputy dean and there were some obvious changes in her behavior style, it is obvious that she is absorbing some nutrients from some "sideline" fields.

In this way, maintaining correspondence with certain people in the world, or even a certain boy, is not an abnormal behavior at all.

After all, as far as he knew, this boy's mother was a well-known founder of the women's rights movement in the secular world...

So after the chat, this "middle-aged professor" who was known for being inhumane and even violent in front of outsiders, turned to Mellen and showed a kind expression.

"There are many famous attractions and delicacies in Fogelsack. You can go there if you have time. I have a few younger brothers who are not good at anything else. I am very good at accompanying guests on tours."

This sounds normal.

However, Kevin on the side was shocked when he heard this.

Fogelsack City is where his family is located, and his father is currently extending a polite invitation.

But even if Iger went to play, it would only be accompanied by his peers.

Why do you call your uncles instead?

"Did Egg really become my elder somehow?"

He naturally thought of his father's explanation in the morning, but he couldn't figure out what this problem was about.

Until the father and son said goodbye and left, Gray talked about the reason halfway.

He didn't want to say anything about it originally, after all, Mrs. Chelsea, the person involved, didn't say anything about it.

But Kevin is not an outsider after all.

Considering that his son will get along with Iger in the future, if he really treats each other as a peer, it is inevitable that there will be some quarrels due to youthful impulsiveness, and he has nothing to hide.

So Kevin was completely dumbfounded.

Brother-in-law suddenly turned into father-in-law?

This, this is too...

"This kind of thing is indeed surprising, but the most indispensable thing in this world is surprise."

Gray, who was not aware of the complexity, sat in the carriage and said to his son calmly:

"Although you may not be able to accept it for a while, it is the fact. Instead of wondering why a boy of the same age has a close relationship with your mother-in-law, it is better to carefully consider what this relationship means to you."

He was actually reminding his son about certain future interest distribution and inheritance issues of the Chelsea family.

After all, this is what the family values ​​most about this marriage.

Kevin was startled when he heard this. After pondering for a moment, he had no idea about it.

In other words, compared to this long-term issue involving family interests, what he is more concerned about now is actually another thing.

"Does mother know about Egg and his wife?"

"If she knew, she wouldn't be able to leave so happily, right?"

"I should find a way to tell her this..."

He made up his mind, but his thoughts were still confused.

Thinking that Egger, who was of the same age, had done such a big thing, he felt very complicated, and he couldn't tell what it was like.

Shocked? Exclusion? Envy, even jealousy?

After being stunned for a long while, Kevin finally cursed twice secretly.

"What a scumbag!"

"Not only did you have an engagement with my sister, but you actually hooked up with my mother-in-law?!"

…

While he was scolding like this, he didn't know that when the scumbag Mellon left the little round-faced residence, he accidentally ran into his fiancée again.
