You call this the mastermind?

When he appeared again, Melen had arrived in a quiet forest park.

It was still early, and the early morning mist was wafting around the park. A petite black-haired girl was climbing on a tree, scattering some trivial bread crumbs into a bird's nest where a group of birds were waiting to feed their chicks.

When Meren, who appeared silently under the tree, raised her eyes, she happened to see a place behind her that should have been wrapped by a loose black robe. It was full of tightness due to the posture of leaning forward and pouting outward.

It seems that she is wearing nothing underneath, and her small and exquisite appearance looks very round.

The shape looks quite nice.

Meren blinked when he saw this, and did not disturb her, but started to appreciate it openly.

For a moment, the peaceful and leisurely atmosphere in the forest park was quietly mixed with a touch of lust, especially because a girl named Athena was barely considered Melen's teacher.

However, the parties concerned did not care about this.

It didn't take long for the girl who was feeding the baby birds to notice the presence of the peeper, but she didn't show any shyness on her face. Instead, she lowered her head and looked at him a few times in a strange way.

It seemed that he didn't expect that Mellen would come looking for him so early in the morning.

"Their mother was accidentally roasted and eaten by me."

After patting away some debris stuck to the palm of her hand, Athena jumped down from the tree. When she looked at Meren with a pair of indifferent gray eyes, she explained softly: "Leave a bird daddy to do his work. It’s hard work, so I come to help every day.”

"You are really a good person."

Mellen said with a strange expression.

"Mainly just being bored."

The girl added, her footsteps already coming to Meren's side.

Then, as if she had discovered something, her little face suddenly froze, "Are you having trouble with my aunt?"

"Why do you say that?"

"Your body was full of her scent before." The girl said, "It's gone now."

What nonsense.

Mellen thought.

He and Juliana often slept together a while ago, but he would use a cleaning spell every time he went out. The effect was cleaner than taking a shower. How could there be any smell left?

But Meren had already recognized the special person in front of him, so he didn't refute what he heard.

"Auntie is really angry because of some personal issues."

"Is it because of my ex-uncle?"

The girl asked calmly, "I heard that he has been leading people around the school these past two days? Has he gone to harass my aunt?"

"That's not true."

Mellen thought that his ex-husband had already accidentally fallen into the pit, and how could he still have the mind to deal with emotional issues, so he simply said: "I just accidentally ruined some romantic rituals, um... it's not a big deal. question."

romantic? A sense of ritual?

The girl seemed a little confused when she heard this. After thinking about it for a while, she suddenly realized something.

"Need help?" she asked then.

"What help?"

"Help you vent your anger?"

These words were simply surprising.

Mellen thought she was joking at first, or making fun of herself.

But looking at the serious look on her face, it clearly didn't look like that.

Mellen couldn't help but be interested.

"Have you ever done this before?"

"I've never even held a man's hand." The girl replied expressionlessly.

"Then how dare you say that?"

"Take advantage of the opportunity. This is the fastest way to bring us closer."

The girl replied calmly, "I see you were quite interested in me just now."

"I'm just surprised you're not a tablet."

Mellen would not admit that he was interested in Juliana's niece, as that would easily overturn his relationship.

After hearing this, the person involved glanced at him noncommittally, but did not talk more about this topic. When Mellen and she were walking in the forest park, her expression and tone seemed very normal, "How did you think about the last proposal?"

"What proposal?"

"As your fiancée's proposal, I will help you deal with your relationship with other women."

"Let's talk about this later."

Mellen replied without interest.

He doesn't feel that he currently has any emotional problems that need to be solved by the person in front of him - the biggest problem is actually the mother-daughter relationship between Alyssa and his wife, but this person obviously can't solve it.

Athena said nothing after hearing this, but when she saw Melen lowering his head and glancing over, she took the initiative to raise her hand and hook up her collar.

Looking down from his height, the scenery in the collar instantly caught Melen's eyes.

As he had guessed before, he was really wearing nothing except his robe and jacket.

"Stop tempting me."

After taking a closer look at the airport inside, Meren looked away with a simple expression, "I'm not interested in you."

Before saying this, Athena believed that because of her height, it was rare for anyone to be truly interested in her.

But Mellen's previous performance proved that he was not one of those without feelings.

This actually surprised the girl, and she prepared to use this as a breakthrough without hesitation.

"I'm going to take a shower when I get back."

She invited generously: "Want to come together?"

"Considering the existence of your aunt, I think you are playing with fire." Mellen replied.

"I won't tell her."

Athena said: "She is actually very stupid, and I am confident that she will not notice my affair with you."

"But I only like stupid women." Mellen said pointedly, and then changed the subject without waiting for the other party to say anything else.

"How are those people from the Church of the Sun God doing now?"

This was actually the real thing he came to ask about.

"Currently being placed on the nearby Black Reef Island."

Athena was not surprised that Melen would change the subject, because she had long seen that although his private life was a bit messy, Melen was not an affectionate person, and he would not accept others easily.

"They originally wanted to come to Thunder Island because this is where the Church of the Sun God was last destroyed. However, considering the complicated internal situation on Thunder Island, my family did not agree."

"Who's in there?"

"They are just a group of old, weak, sick and disabled people. I have carefully observed them. Except for the person who can summon the mysterious knight, there is nothing to care about."

As she said that, she glanced at Melen nonchalantly, "Why are you suddenly curious about this?"

"After all, it was once one of the two major religions."

Of course Mellen cannot tell the truth, "If nothing else, it has a certain value simply for studying the history of religion."

"The history of religion is most useless."

Athena said disapprovingly: "You can't learn from small wisdom, and you can't learn from great wisdom. The school offers this course probably just to satisfy the students' sense of superiority as modern wizards."

Mellen smiled when he heard this and said nothing.

"Actually, sometimes, I think you have a sense of superiority in the way you look at others." The girl didn't want to let him go. When she looked sideways, her eyes were full of exploration, "Do you have many secrets?"

"That's just your illusion."

Mellen replied.

"I don't think it's an illusion."

The girl shook her head and said: "I have come here to observe you quietly when I have time recently, and I found out -"

She suddenly paused in her words and looked at a bush in the forest not far away, with a flash of surprise.

"Did you see it? There's a body there."

She turned to Mellen and said, "It seems to be the student who had a conflict with Kevin."
