In Celia's underground research room, Eliez was alone surrounded by white walls, staring intently at the screen in front of a homemade magic guide that looked like a computer. Her expression was not as pleasant as usual, and it was unusually focused.

If you look closely, you will find that it is not only the expression, but also the atmosphere of the different and the past on Arize's body at this time.

The long hair, which was originally fluffy and slightly curled like waves, is now glued to pieces, the cheeks that used to be ruddy and delicate have become rough and lacklustre because of staying up late, the shiny jewel-like pupils are now dull, and the lower eyelids still have panda-like dark circles; if there is anything else that has always been the same, it is probably the little mouth that has been chattering all along, even at this time, her mouth is trembling slightly, and she whispers something softly at an astonishing speed。

The lab was empty except for Eliza, and her feet were littered with densely painted parchments. On the display of the magic guide, the light and shadow images are changing at an incredible speed. No matter who it was, it probably didn't make sense of what she was doing now, but the atmosphere was so preoccupied that it was almost terrifying.

At this moment, the space portal, a pedestal-shaped device in the corner of the research room, began to emit dazzling particles, which gradually condensed and formed, and finally fixed into the form of "human".

When the light cleared, a fourteen-year-old boy and apprentice to Elize's sect, the young magician Michelle, emerged from the pedestal of the portal and walked quickly to Elize's side.

"Miss Eliza, what the hell are you doing!?Shut yourself up in the research room for two days and two nights!"

The young magician questioned his mentor with an almost stern question, but it was natural, after all, as he had said, Alize had been locked up in his research room alone for more than forty hours, and his concern was palpable.

"Brother Michelle......" Hearing the young man's voice, the girl slowly turned her head with a wooden expression, and the familiar face made her look a little soothed.

However, it didn't last for a few seconds, and Arieza immediately remembered something, tilted her head and asked, "I have locked the coordinates of the spatial portal, how did you get in?"

"Ah, yes, it's locked! So it took me a lot of work to get rid of it!"

As an apprentice of magic, Michelle has been carefully learning all the techniques and theories taught by his mentor Aliez. It should be said that a famous teacher produces a high apprentice, and he has mastered the attainments of magic guides and space-time magic, which ordinary people cannot reach. In other words, he may be the only one who can crack Elize's magic and props in this world.

"Ahaha...... It's Michelle's brother, it's really a genius......"

The praise from the mentor did not have the vitality of the past at all, which made the boy's brow lock deeper. Of course, he knew why Alize was the way she was. After all, Hilda's body was damaged during the ritual, and later taken away by an unknown monster, and he witnessed the whole process on the spot. Michelle also knows how important the maid Hilda is to her mentor Eliza.

Elizar has always loved Hilda as her own mother, and Hilda dotes on Elizar the most among the three sisters in the Lord's Mansion. Although the two of them get tired of being together all day long, part of the reason is because of Hilda's special body structure, she once lost her original human body in the accident of the bandits, and was transformed into a machine made of magic guides by Arizor. From then on, in order to maintain the magic needed for physical activity, it was necessary to draw magic from the creator Ariz.

However, this technical problem has recently made breakthroughs. The birth of the Simulated Dragonstone solves the problem of Hilda's mana replenishment, allowing her to no longer rely on Eliza's mana replenishment.

Therefore, in Michelle's opinion, in addition to this reason, a larger part of the reason is because Alize can't leave her doting mother. It is only when Hilda is together that Eliezer will show her coquettish side like ordinary children of the same age.

Although what she gained from Hilda was only the bland happiness and peace of mind of daily life, once she lost it, it would be like a fish suddenly leaving a pond, leaving a huge void in her heart that would be difficult to fill, causing pain like suffocation, right?

At the time of the abrupt loss of his mother...... It was because of his own mistakes that caused this consequence, and the psychological trauma caused to Arizza can be imagined. Because of the scene experienced at the top of the windmill tower, even Michelle was hit a lot.

You know, Hilda is an extremely quiet and intelligent woman, and she plays the perfect mother figure in her daily life, she is sometimes strict and sometimes gentle, her plump and soft body and kind and quiet smile, everything can be called a combination of motherhood.

As an orphan, Michelle has always been taken care of by her, so even if she is not as good as Eliza, Michelle has a deep longing and attachment to Hilda.

has been getting along with her mentor day and night, so that Michelle understands what an innocent girl Alize is. Although she has unique values and a view of good and evil, her heart is unparalleled pure.

Because of this, Michelle could guess what Alize was thinking at this time, she must be racking her brains to find a way to try to save her mother.

Of course, when a person loses something, or makes a mistake, he will try his best to pursue and make up for it. Even for gifted mentors, there is no exception. Before she became an astonishing scientist or magician, she was just an eight-year-old girl.

In fact, just as Michelle had envisioned -

"Brother Michelle, just wait a minute, just a little bit...... I've analyzed the material structure of the thing that captured Hilda, the composition of the defensive barrier and the form of energy, and the basic function of the energy signal and electromagnetic pulse released by the ship, so I just need to ...... again."

"Miss Eliza, you should go and get some rest first!"

"Don't!"

"No, you have to rest! If you continue like this, your body will ......."

"Don't don't don't don't don't ——!!"

It should be said that it is the first time that Michelle has seen such a sloppy and cheating mentor who shows her suppressed intense emotions so bluntly.

But, despite this, the teenager could not leave the girl alone. Because Arizzel is now on the tip of the horns, her attitude will not solve any problems at all, and if she continues, she will only fall down again, and make her fall more and more serious.

Eliezer may be a genius at the study of magic, but she surprisingly has the weakness of not being able to read people's hearts. She may have known that she must have made a mistake in some part of the process this time, but Alize's logic couldn't figure out what the wrong step was.

Michelle tells herself that she can't back down, and that at times like these, he must help her mentor find the crux of the problem and assist Arizel in solving it.

"Well, what are you going to do after analyzing the other party's weaknesses?"

"Yes, of course...... I'm going to get Hilda back, of course! I'm going to destroy that thing by any means...... Destroy him, and make it disappear from the molecular level......!"

"But have you ever wondered where that monster came from, and why it fell from the sky?"

"I don't know!"

Alize shook her head.

"So, have you ever wondered why Hilda would force herself to overload herself and cause such severe damage?"

"I don't know ......"

Ariezel shook her head again.

"As a result, have you ever wondered why that monster of unknown origin would take away the seriously injured Hilda? In my opinion, you are more dangerous than that monster now! Have you ever thought that the dangerous magic you unleashed on the top of the windmill tower before, even if the monster is hit and destroyed, Hilda will be safe again!?"

"I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know......"

Like a broken machine, Eliez kept shaking her head vigorously again and again, and finally she 'pounced' and fell into the boy's arms. With an almost heartbreaking whimper, he raised his pitiful tears and begged Michelle for help-

"Ariezel doesn't understand...... Woowoo...... Alize didn't understand, she was obviously doing it according to her sister's plan...... Woowoo...... Obviously, I want to make my family happy ...... so hard...... Is it wrong to believe that Sister Alice is?

Alizen didn't understand...... Obviously, there is a little sister stationed in the Holy Tower...... Woowoo...... She obviously left everything to her, don't worry...... Woowoo...... Why do accidents happen......!? Is it wrong to believe that Xiaomei is also wrong?

Alizen didn't understand...... Mingming told Hilda not to force it...... Woowoo...... Why didn't she listen to me, and why did she end up like that......?

Alize didn't understand either...... Why is even Uncle Charlie dead...... why is Alice so stupid...... Don't understand anything...... tell me...... Brother Michelle...... What should I do, ......Aritzel? Teach me ......"

The genius girl, who calls herself a fool, seems to be venting her suppressed emotions for a long time, and expresses all the dissatisfaction and incomprehension that have accumulated in her heart in one go.

"I'm sorry, Miss Eliezer, but I don't understand what you asked. ”

But even if he was prayed by the girl like this, the boy could only shake his head helplessly and give an honest answer. He is not an omniscient and all-powerful deity, unable to read the mysteries behind the events and the various thoughts that now flow through the Empire.

"However, if you don't understand, I will accompany you to analyze the data, think about the reasons together, think about it again and again, until you find the answer...... In order not to make any more mistakes, not to do anything wrong again. Okay......

"Well......" It was only then that Alize buried her face in the boy's arms, closed her eyes that had not been closed for more than forty hours, and fell into a deep sleep.
