You call this the mastermind?

Mellen doesn't like herself.

Alyssa has clearly recognized this.

That's why she thought of using her identity and past events to threaten Mellen.

Because this is the only hope she can hold.

Although this behavior will cause disgust and even alienation from her lover, it can at least make the other party see her in the right light.

Instead of not caring about her thoughts like before, and only considering catering to her mother's plan.

However, it is sad that this ray of hope is rooted in the feelings of her lover towards her mother.

If Mellen no longer likes her mother, then the so-called hope will naturally disappear.

At that time, what reason does she have to entangle?

Therefore, when Alyssa saw Mellen going out with a strange girl for a long time, she felt nervous, and after Mellen returned, she said something meaningful in a voice transmission without disguising it.

Although the girl looked very sloppy and her appearance was not good-looking.

Unfortunately, just like before, after she said this, the black-haired boy beside her ignored her and just glanced over, making her confused about what he was thinking.

This incident made Alyssa a little uneasy.

So at noon, when everyone entered the airship restaurant for dinner, she took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention and quietly came to the seat next to the black-haired girl and sat down.

"Where are you from?"

Alyssa then asked curiously, "Why have I never seen you before?"

You haven't seen most of the people in this airship...

"The black-haired girl" thought to herself, looking at her daughter who was in front of her, she whispered: "The Hobart family in Smedley Town."

"Hobart?"

Alyssa seemed to be very interested and asked, "Is it the Hobart who is good at curse magic?"

This attitude is very strange, because the lady knows clearly that her daughter has never been interested in things like black magic before.

Although she is now showing her "secondary personality", this should not involve a change in personal preferences...

"You want to ask, what did Egg say to me?"

The black-haired girl couldn't help but narrow her eyes.

Since she got on the airship, except for talking with Mellen for a while, she didn't do anything else to attract attention.

So the man in front of her suddenly became curious about her, and it couldn't be for other reasons.

However, just because he talked a few words with Mellen, he came to ask questions and looked nervous. Obviously, he didn't look like he had given up his thoughts...

"Yes."

Alyssa admitted her purpose very frankly.

But what she said next made the lady feel a little surprised.

"Because he is one of my elders. I mean, he is the fiancé of one of my elders."

"Elder?"

"An elder in the family, and I have a good relationship with him."

Alyssa said: "She likes Egg very much, so before coming here, she asked me to keep an eye on him and didn't want other girls to get close to him."

Alyssa certainly couldn't say that she liked Mellen, because on the surface, her identity was Kevin's fiancée.

If she really said that, it would cause trouble for Mellen-although she is a trouble to Mellen now, she doesn't want to cause trouble for him in other things.

It's not okay to say that he is the fiancé of a friend, because everyone knows that she has few friends, and such words will be easily exposed, and then suspected that she likes Mellen.

So she can only say that he is an elder.

However, such words are completely different to the lady's ears.

Who else can be involved with Mellen, the elder of her daughter, except herself?

I don't want Mellen to chat up with other girls?

I like Mellen very much?

Fiancé?

What is this child talking about? After the initial shock, the lady felt amused.

But then, she suddenly remembered what Alyssa said before.

The words that she would die if she didn't stay with Mellen.

"So, does my daughter really want me to be with Mellen? Even if she knows that we were deceiving her before?"

This thought made the lady a little absent-minded.

Because there seemed to be no other possibility.

It's impossible that after knowing that she and Mellen had an affair, her daughter would still want to get entangled and stop other girls from approaching in the name of an elder, right?

"Of course, she just doesn't want her fiancé to fall in love with someone else."

Alyssa didn't know the details of the person in front of her, and she was still lying as if embarrassed: "So if it's just a simple friendship, it's no big deal."

"... It's not making friends."

The lady came back to her senses and said: "He just heard that my family is good at magic in the aspects of soul and curse, so he came to inquire about some things related to the splitting of the soul after being stimulated."

"Soul split?"

The blonde girl was startled when she heard the words, and naturally thought of herself.

"Yes."

The lady pondered and said, "He mainly asked about some sequelae, precautions, whether daily behavior would be affected. It seems that he must have relatives who have encountered this situation, so he is very worried."

She didn't think her daughter would continue to entangle with Mellen.

But Mellen said before that her daughter hated the two of them.

It didn't matter to her, but Mellen was hated by her daughter, which made her feel a little innocent.

So now that she has the opportunity, of course she won't hesitate to tell a few lies to ease the relationship between the two parties.

…

Because she didn’t know anything about what happened between her daughter and the student, the lady didn’t think there was anything wrong with this behavior.

However, she never imagined how surprised the blonde girl would be after hearing these words.

After holding back her emotions and bidding farewell to "Innocent Catherine," she returned to the empty seat and stayed blank for a while, suddenly feeling the urge to cry.

"It's not like he doesn't like me at all."

"He just didn't say it."

"After I did that wrong thing, he still cared about me..."

Excitement, joy, regret, self-blame, shame... The girl's emotions at this moment were very complicated, and she even had a blank suspicion, was the thing she did before going too far?

There should have been a more gentle solution, but I ended up using the most extreme one?

Would things actually be better if you didn't do that?

No one told her the answer to this doubt, and she had no extra time to immerse herself in this emotion.

Because inexplicably, she suddenly found that she couldn't move!

This made Alyssa quite stunned.

But then she noticed that some people around her who had not gone to the restaurant were all sitting still, with stiff expressions and horrified eyes.

What's even weirder is that the light in the cabin that should have been bright slowly dimmed at this moment!

"What is that!?"

The girl in her seat could not see everything outside the airship, but the young wizards who were frozen in the restaurant could see the birth of the abnormal phenomenon through the window.

It was a gathering of dark clouds that quietly enveloped the sky.

And at the core of the dark cloud, a vortex is slowly forming, with golden light emerging from it!

…

At the same time, as the Graham City airship encountered an accident, a group of people dressed in the uniforms of the instructors at Fort St. Grant were ready to go.

"The seventh airship, the seventh trial begins."

The leader, an old professor, said with a serious expression: "We must get within a hundred meters of the knight this time."

"Did you hear everything clearly? It's within a hundred meters."

"Not even one meter less!"
