You call this the mastermind?

The morning light sprinkled on the green lawn, dyeing the dewdrops attached to the tips of the tender leaves gorgeous.

In the single dormitory, Mellen, who had just brushed his teeth, opened the curtains of the bay window balcony, looked at the peaceful scenery outside, and couldn't help sighing.

Although he did something wrong last night, he originally expected that he could coax the angry woman back with just a little coaxing.

However, he didn't expect that her niece would say such a confession to her uncle in front of Juliana.

Although the conversation did not continue because of Juliana's pretending to be indifferent, her gloomy face when she left clearly proved how bad her mood was.

So Mellen was also "affected by the innocent".

"It's just deliberately making trouble."

He murmured, not feeling very happy.

Unlike Juliana who was angry, he would not believe that Athena really liked him.

Apart from anything else, when she mentioned the word "like", she didn't feel shy at all, as if she was saying a very ordinary word.

So, the other party's words were either deliberately angering Juliana, or there was a conspiracy.

Melen was inclined to the latter, because he had long suspected that he had exposed his flaws and was discovered by that Athena.

"Because of the enchanted dagger?"

It was easy to guess the reason for the exposure, but when making the dagger, Melen didn't know how it would be different from other people's finished products, so he couldn't be blamed for being careless.

"But it's just this thing, she can't be sure of anything. As long as I don't reveal more..."

Thinking like this, Melen put this matter aside for the time being and prepared to go to class.

Not long after the start of school, he was entangled with things again, but he had adapted to campus life and had a strong interest in acquiring knowledge--

Although there is a legacy memory in his mind, the source of the memory is an ancient person.

Some knowledge, although it can allow him to break through the vision of low-level wizards, it is inevitable to fall behind.

Or, in other words, they can't keep up with the times.

In this world, although wizards' promotion is accidental, wizards are not a profession that relies on old achievements. Melen learned from a newspaper that the number of magics invented each year is no less than one thousand.

And the magic spells in his inherited memory may be less than one thousand in total.

Although many magics are very useless, such as a spell that can make the hair on the body grow rapidly, after accumulating in number, there are still many powerful and even bug-like magics that have been born one after another.

In this case, it is obviously irrational to focus all attention on old world things such as the Holy Spirit Demon or even the Magic Tide.

So, we can't give up learning new things.

However, Melen actually has no pressure in this regard.

Because he has a very good talent and strong comprehension, it is hard to say about the courses in the senior grades. The current situation is that he can learn any knowledge at once, and he can understand it at once, without even adding points.

As the fundamental level of a wizard, he has now reached the second level, far exceeding other peers-normally, this process takes at least half a year.

"Maybe I should consider skipping a grade."

During the lunch break, looking back at the classes in the morning, learning was as easy as drinking water, so this thought flashed through Mellen's mind.

And when he saw a petite figure approaching him, this thought became even stronger.

"Why didn't you go to yesterday's practice class?"

Athena approached and asked casually.

At this time, Mellen was sitting by a fountain pool, looking at some people in the square around him who were a little absent-minded, and he couldn't help but curl his lips after hearing this.

He wanted to go, but the practice resources had been used up.     Because he was practicing the path of succession, he needed two kinds of resources, one provided by Mrs. Chelsea, and the other, which was allocated by Juliana.

However, the former was busy and didn't care about the end, and the latter was currently angry and unwilling to pay attention to him, so Mellen didn't eat this soft rice for a while.

Of course, this was actually because he was not in a hurry.

Otherwise, he could ask the school to provide him with resources.

But there was no need to talk about this, so Melen simply replied: "Something happened, I forgot about it for the time being."

"You seem to be very busy recently?"

Athena seemed to be making small talk, "I see many classmates want to make friends with you, but they can't find you after school."

"I'm very busy, and I can't be idle in a short time."

Melen replied lightly.

It's normal to be busy. After all, he was exposed to the various secrets hidden in this world too early, and there are too many things to explore and understand.

In this case, how can he care about making friends?

There is no way to explain this, so Melen responded perfunctorily.

However, Athena seemed to think that his attitude was that he didn't want to pay attention to her, so after thinking about it, she suddenly changed the subject.

"My family hopes that I can hook up with you."

"Hook up?"

Melen was stunned when he heard this, and then looked at the other party with some surprise.

The word hook up is simply self-deprecating, but after a closer look, he found that when this person said this, not only did his face not change, but his inner emotions did not fluctuate.

Melen didn't quite understand what this "primary school student" wanted to say.

So he didn't respond.

"However, I think under normal circumstances, you would never look down on me." Athena continued, "So you never took action."

"What are you doing now?" Melen raised his eyebrows.

"I'm going to say something practical."

Athena said, "I know you have had ambiguous relationships with several women, but they may not agree with your half-heartedness. They will always be jealous and exclude others to compete for the position of the only wife."

"However, if you can marry someone you don't like as your wife, and then downgrade them all to lovers, then this relationship will be much easier to handle."

It's not the lack of wealth that is worrying, but the inequality. Of course, it's better for no one to eat peaches than for someone to eat peaches but others can't.

If you really want to marry someone you don't like as your wife, then this "big wife" is obviously not threatening.

However, Melen felt that it was a bit early to say this, and he didn't think that this kind of thing was something that the unfamiliar person in front of him should consider.

Moreover, he doubted the credibility of Athena, the "primary school student", because she didn't look shy at all when she said this.

So Melen just glanced at her a few times and didn't say anything.

"I'm serious."

Athena said expressionlessly: "People with my background are destined to be taken out by the family for marriage. Because of my height, I don't even expect to meet any love. So instead of being pushed to others and being despised, it's better to choose you who is pleasing to the eye for a deal."

"Even if you know that I'm entangled with your aunt?"

Melen asked meaningfully.

"Even if you're entangled with my mother," Athena replied: "I don't care."
