Ann’s imagination ran wild learning that Jill Norley was the woman who bedded her young lover. What hurt her more was the fact that the boy looked into Anna’s eyes and claimed that the other girl did not matter to him, only to learn that he was still in contact with her. Ann was now not only brimming with jealousy and hate for Jill but felt weak and stupid. Which caused her mind to go as far as to contemplate that the boy was so stubborn about joining Morningstar University because of Jill Norley.

“Girl, what you are saying doesn’t make sense, a little context would help,” Colleen said with a frown. Just knowing that Jill Norley was related to that man had her worried for the boy, she did not have time for Ann’s romantic drama but she choose to remain patient.

“The investigation report is accurate, Wyatt and Jill did come in to contact on that day. All I have to add to that is that they shared a physical relationship that day. However, I don’t know how close they are. But considering that Jill is an attractive woman and Wyatt is still young, I can see why he is so stubborn about attending Morningstar University,” Ann doubled down on the notion that the boy was so adamant about attending Morningstar University at the risk of his life all because of his physical relationship with Jill. That thought that with an A-One beauty like Anna constantly through herself at the boy, he did not need to move to another region at the risk of his life for a physical relationship.

“Ann, are you sure about this?” Colleen asked.

“Yes. Why else would Jill risk her career by giving the data on how to use and maintain the dungeon relocation apparatus and also be willing to get him coordinates of the other worlds discovered by Morningstar University? That woman does not hesitate to commit crimes for him, how else would you interpret the relationship between those two?” Ann was blowing everything out of the proposition without having the slightest clue about the relationship between the boy and Jill.

“The relationship between those two developed to that level just in one day? First Anna and now this little girl, I envy that boy’s luck with women,” Lorenzo complained causing Aria to frown. She did not expect to hear such words from Lorenzo’s mouth. Ann and Colleen who knew Lorenzo for a long time were not surprised by his words however Aria who has been in little contact with could not help but feel a little disgust toward him as she did not expect to hear such words from an elderly figure such as Lorenzo himself.

ραndαsΝοvεl ƈοm “Do you think all this was staged?” Colleen asked in doubt. Because she did not understand what business a prominent researcher like Dr.Jill Norley had down in the southern region when she could find as many E-rank dungeons as she wanted in the central region. It may seem far-fetched but considering the whole Freedom Fighter incident it made sense.

The Freedom Fighters pitted the Southern royal family against the Government while they reaped the benefits. The Freedom Fighters had not only taken advantage of them but also the government. However, this also made it clear that the government was aware of what the Southern royal family was up to from the start. Meaning they knew about the boy and the silver milk powder, yet they did not act and patiently lied wait for the Southern Royal family to use the dungeon relocation apparatus to turn the sliver beach dungeon into a dungeon card such that they could reap the most benefit.

When the government went through so much trouble to stage a heist, to get their hands on the silver beach gate dungeon and the boy, it did not seem that far-fetched to think that Jill’s accidental run-in with the boy was also staged to gain his trust using the classic honey trap. This seemed more probable because Jill was that man’s daughter.

Colleen could not think of any other reasons that would explain why Jill had to come down all the way to a third-rate city in the southern region to explore a few E-rank dungeons. Reaching this conclusion, Colleen began to worry.

The boy was very important to the southern region, especially now when he claimed that he could use the dungeon relocation apparatus to summon a dungeon similar to silver beach gate dungeon.

Colleen started to feel an unknown sense of urgency, so she did not bother to further debate Jill’s relationship with the boy or whether their encounter was staged. And ordered, “Our enemies seem to have been one step ahead of us all this time. So, I don’t know what it takes or how you will do it, figure out how the boy’s trick works. I want to know how he managed to run away from the palace to the sky-blossom city in a matter of few minutes and how to stop him from using it to run away again.”

“Yes, your Highness,” Lorenzo nodded in confirmation. Now he had another reason other than his curiosity to expose the boy’s trick.

“Um, I don’t have to remind you how important the boy is for the future of the southern region, get it done as fast as possible. So, that I can bring him to safety at the latest,” Colleen once again stressed to Lorenzo should find a solution to the boy trick as soon as possible.

“Yes, your Highness, leave it to me,” Lorenzo once again assured Colleen.

“…” Hearing the conversation between Colleen and Lorenzo, Aria’s expression became dignified as she gathered that her mission was more important than she assessed it to be and also understood that the Card soldier to whom she was assigned as a bodyguard was not as simple as he seemed. He seemed to somehow be very important for the future of the southern region, rising the importance of her mission to the highest level.
