You call this the mastermind?

Melen knew about this, of course, not because the younger version of the teacher took the initiative to tell her, but because he peeped in when the other party was using the Book of Secrets to contact people.

Being within the confines of Fort St. Grant, this kind of thing is not difficult for Mellen, the heir -

Although you can't rely on authority to become invisible, you can still control your aura, arrive behind the target instantly, and quietly look around.

So Mellen saw Isabella Chelsea, who had long, silky golden hair and a profile that was quite similar to her future adopted daughter Alyssa. She was sitting at the desk in front of the window, stroking the quill in her hand one after another. There is an ongoing exchange on the page with a person labeled Susan Corian.

"This person is very important, Susan. I don't know whether he is an ordinary person or a wizard, so for the sake of caution, you must be careful when you act."

Magic traces like black ink continuously form this line of exquisite and beautiful small words.

The writer sat on the chair with a straight and graceful waist, and a pair of green eyes focused on the book of secret words on the table. He was completely unaware that a stunned black-haired "peer" was standing behind him at this moment.

"Nothing can go wrong."

Under the intense gaze of two eyes, one bright and one dark, this sentence appeared on the page, "I will ask my aunt to follow me. Remember her, she is very good at dueling and is also good at escaping."

"Your aunt?"

The young girl frowned when she saw this, and then wrote bluntly: "Can she keep it a secret?"

"Does this still need to be kept secret?"

"Of course. To be honest, I can't trust anyone except you to ask for help right now."

"...Maybe you should explain clearly why you want to investigate this guy named James?"

"Sorry, Susan, I don't know too much yet. All I can say is that he might destroy my family."

"Destroy Chelsea?"

"Isn't this too exaggerated?"

"..."

"..."

The conversation between the two girls that followed did not have anything substantive, so Melen retracted his gaze, but his mind could not calm down for a long time.

Of course he knew who the woman named Susan was across from the Book of Secrets.

That was Mrs. Chelsea's good friend. When he was still in Graham City "back in the day", he had conspired with an unlucky half-blood wizard to "attack" another lady.

However, in this current era, this lady has not yet married, cannot be called someone else's wife, and has not given birth to a son who would offend Melen.

But the friendship between her and the young teacher in front of her was obviously very deep.

However, after carefully looking at the girl's solemn expression, Meren doubted whether what the person said just now that he didn't know too much was false.

"Destroy Chelsea?"

"My damn uncle has this ability?"

He was a little surprised by this.

After thinking about it carefully, Meren found that in his memory, apart from a few interesting dirty jokes told by his uncle, there was not much other deep impression.

This is of course not to say that there is an error in his memory, but compared to the other mediocre and inconspicuous aspects of Uncle Ghost, his most obvious feature is his absurd "humor" that always attracts the attention of others.

"It is possible for me to believe that he hooked up with the mistress of the Chelsea family and then managed to dismantle the wizarding family. But considering the identity of the mistress, this is simply impossible..."

This thought flashed through, causing Meren to focus on the blond girl in front of him again.

This matter is obviously not simple.

He was sure that this had not happened in the original history.

Otherwise, when he met the teacher, the other party wouldn't have reacted like that.

After all, his family situation is not a secret. Mellen even remembered that when he was so frightened by his teacher that he wanted to run away, the Chelsea family’s butler stopped him at the train station, and mentioned his dead uncle in the process.

Even if she didn't mention it at first because they weren't familiar with each other, later on when the two of them became familiar with each other, Madam wouldn't have stopped talking about such a thing.

Therefore, there must be some complications inside.

But this is obviously nothing, because he came to this era and the butterfly effect appeared.

The butterfly flaps its wings, and perhaps the girl who would have fallen in love with Anthony wants to make Anthony her brother-in-law.

But how to incite a ghost uncle who was originally an ordinary person into a mysterious person?

"Unless he is not simple in the first place."

"Still..."

The thoughts in his mind were chaotic, and he saw that the girl in front of him had a tendency to end the communication, but Meren, who was standing behind her, did not hide.

He felt that this matter might be important and he had to find out the details.

How to find out?

Of course I should ask the person in front of me.

Although he didn't think that the other party would honestly explain the situation, it was also easy for him, the heir, to train a girl to tell the truth in Fort St. Grant.

Mellen has silently made up his mind about this.

As for the intimate relationship with the teacher, although he took this into consideration, he thought that he would not really hurt the other person.

It is not difficult for him to follow the authority in urgent matters and use drastic measures.

And he was very doubtful whether the person in front of him was Mrs. Chelsea?

"Anyway, I'll leave this matter to you, Susan."

"If it's really dangerous, you can make plans after I return to Graham City. Don't be stubborn."

Under Mellen's silent gaze, the girl wrote this sentence with a feather pen in her slender fingers, then closed the secret book with a brown cowhide cover. After a long silence, she finally took a deep breath and stood up.

Then she turned around and saw Mellen's presence.

What surprised Mellen was that the girl was subconsciously stunned for a moment when she encountered such an accident, but then there was no panic on her face.

Instead, she frowned and looked at Mellen for several times. Not only was there no vigilance in her expression, but the solemn look that was originally due to the incident just now was replaced by a touch of curiosity.

"Who are you?"

The girl asked this, but then she raised her footsteps and came behind Mellen.

Mellen was a little puzzled by her attitude.

But before he could speak, the other party spoke again, "I dreamed of you. I am sure it was not because of magic, but you seem a little different from the dream?"

"What do you mean?"

"There should be a small mole behind your ear."

Merlen was shocked.

Of course, there is a small mole behind his ear, but because the location is too secret, he has never discovered it.

Juliana mentioned it to him not long ago.

But the mole is on his original body.

This body doesn't have it now.
