Whether Melen runs away or not depends on the attitude of the Half-Blood Association in this matter.

If they really wanted to force themselves to go to that banquet, then of course he couldn't stay and suffer this grievance.

Anyway, the life-saving spell is basically in hand, and then as long as you gather some information, you can officially start executing the plan.

It doesn't matter if the plan fails, because when Mellen proposed this plan, he had already considered the question of whether it would fail-

Having a common "secret" that is not known to a third person is a means of quickly pulling into the relationship between two strangers.

At the same time, this matter also involves the principle behind the phrase "...... through the window together".

Therefore, today he seems to have helped Arthur with advice for nearly a whole day, but the real purpose is actually to use this incident to quickly get closer to the other party.

And now, he can already say with confidence that even if his stepfather's plan fails in the future, or the plan takes more time than the time limit of the death calamity, it is not difficult for him to temporarily borrow a water pearl from Arthur, or even borrow his family heirloom necklace.

After all, he doesn't need to use that kind of thing all the time, it's a temporary loan or not a non-return.

As long as there is a certain level of friendship and trust, there will be no problem.

Because of this, Mellen can now be said to be "light on nothing".

The Half-Blood Association has nothing to counterbalance him, so why did he wronged himself for this association?

What impact could he have if he left the Guild, other than not being able to continue his wizarding education here?

It's a big deal to find another wizarding organization to join.

With this in mind, Melen did not go to the suburbs to see the excitement as he and the little girl claimed, but found a hotel in the dock area to live in.

There's a lot to do next.

First of all, he hadn't had time to look at the black box that Fox Butler had given him in the morning, and he needed to see what was inside.

Secondly, he had learned from Arthur that the most important thing about that kind of water storage magic was actually the medium of water storage, that is, the water storage bead or necklace.

The accompanying magic itself is not the point.

So Melen didn't have to save lives to add points to it at all.

In other words, only a few lives are left to quickly learn that magic, and the rest can already be used at will.

Again, the execution of the stepfather's plan requires him to channel.

After all, now they basically don't know anything except that there is such a "divorced rich woman".

How to get close to her, how to quickly pull into the relationship after approaching her, all need a lot of intelligence support to customize specific ideas.

Otherwise it's just empty talk.

This matter is actually the most troublesome, because it is impossible for Melen to psychic the "rich woman" itself, his level is not enough, and he can only "play side balls" around the possible servants around the rich woman.

So Mellen was ready to put the matter to the end.

……

In the unrefined but neat single room of the hotel, Mellen sat on a feather bed in the room, and first opened the black wooden box handed by Fox Butler in the morning.

Then he saw a yellowed parchment and a letter overlaid on it.

When he opened the letter, Mellen found that the letter had been written by the old butler Fox, and the contents of it made him stunned.

"Madame wants to take me as an apprentice, because she foresees a major change in the Half-Blood Association in the future...... Nicely said, isn't this just cultivating spies? ”

Mellen didn't know that he was actually the first and most likely the only apprentice that Mrs. Chelsea had set up her mind to take.

He didn't even understand that the relationship between apprentice and teacher meant in the wizarding world was a very serious inheritance relationship - acknowledging that someone was his apprentice, but he had to take care of it for a lifetime.

So when she saw the letter now, Mellen didn't think it was a big deal.

At most, it's similar to the relationship between a graduate student and a supervisor in a previous life, but what else can it be?

But despite the lack of special feelings, Melen thought about it carefully.

His current thinking has actually changed a little compared to the beginning.

At the very least, because he knew more about fate, he was no longer afraid to come into contact with that lady.

Especially this so-called apprenticeship relationship.

In Mellen's opinion, this apprentice sounds good, but in fact he is just a spy, and the spy naturally cannot disclose the relationship between himself and his "employer".

Therefore, if the employer itself is in trouble, it will generally not affect the spy.

But on the contrary, when there is a problem, the spy can turn to the employer for help......

In a hierarchical world, what is the way to quickly cross classes?

There is no doubt that hugging the thighs of the rich woman and begging to fly!

"It's just, if I really want to accept it, I have to go back to the Half-Blood Association, well......"

Thinking about the pros and cons of this matter, Mellen did not look at the parchment in the black box that needed to be read once before it could be effective.

Instead, he pulled out a booklet he had with him and used it to check his properties panel.

At this point, the information in the properties panel is no different than before.

The corresponding number of lives is 6 and 8.

The former is gray and the latter is green and belongs to Mellen's main savings now.

"It's not safe to keep one, so let's keep three......"

With that in mind, Mellen's finger touched the green number on the page.

As soon as his mind moved, a streak of green smoke appeared on his fingertips, and then quickly wrapped around his fingers to merge into it.

Merlen's mind was flooded with strange memories.

【You have obtained Herbology (Beginner)】

……

Entry-level herbalism?

Mellen frowned.

Although there is not a lot of memory corresponding to this introductory herbalism, the amount of knowledge contained in it is also very large, and it must be very difficult to learn.

But he didn't think about what he would do in the future to collect or pound medicine.

However, it doesn't matter, it doesn't hurt to know a little more about herbs.

So with a thought, Melen chose to draw again.

【You have obtained Basic Wand Crafting (Proficiency)】

……

"How is it an accessibility?"

Adjusting to the new influx of knowledge in her head, Merron couldn't help but frown.

"In this way, there are many variables......"

An idea popped into him.

It's just that the idea seems a bit risky......

hesitated, but thought about it, if it was always this kind of garbage ability that followed, wouldn't his life count be wasted?

And if you try it, it can be regarded as an exploration of the golden finger, if you can make it......

Thinking so, Mellen had already made up his mind, so he took a pen and wrote a sentence on the page—

"I'll have a lot of luck in the next minute!"

I didn't notice anything special, but the gray number of lives on the panel was instantly one less.

Mellen was overjoyed to see this.

He thought that changing his luck would inevitably cost a lot of money, but he didn't expect that it would only cost one of the lowest lives!

I knew earlier, what was he hesitating?

After taking a deep breath, Mellen clicked his finger on the green number three times in succession!

【You have obtained the Basic Wizard Duel Method (Mastery)】

……

【You have obtained Electro-Optical Technique (Mastery)】

……

[You have obtained Flashpoint Sword Technique (Mastery)]

……

Not only did memories flood in this time, but Melen felt a slight change in her third hand.

At the same time, there seemed to be some strange changes inside his body, which were inexplicable.

When he came back from his trance, he didn't understand what this change was all about.

"What about the wizard who said yes, why did there still be a swordsmanship?"

Mellen wondered about this.

Memories related to swordsmanship are already imprinted in my mind, but when I think about it, it doesn't seem to be a great skill.

But this skill just now, but inexplicably let his body have some reactions, which ......

Thinking about this, it's a pity that Merlen doesn't have a sword or other melee weapons in his hand now, so there is no way to experiment.

So he had to experiment with something else.

After pulling her wand from her magic pocket and listening with her ears pricked up for a while, Merron suddenly pointed the tip of her wand at a beam in the hotel room.

There was a crunch and a faint flash of electricity in the air, followed by a small thing smoking, falling onto the wooden floor.

If you look closely, you can see that it is actually a mosquito, and it has been scorched into a small ball by the electric current.

"Instant magic, it's really convenient."

Mellen sighed.

Electro-light was the magic he had learned before, and it was the only one he knew at the moment.

However, the mastery level of electro-optics is completely different from the entry level.

Not only can he now control the strength of his magic release, but he can also control where he hits while his mind is turning......

Standard mosquito buster!

But other than that, there's not much to experiment with.

The so-called basic dueling method was used to compete with other wizards, and Meren couldn't use it on her own.

And that swordsmanship is even more difficult to practice, because it requires that the weapon in hand must be metal, and it is impossible to find a wooden stick.

So Meren thought about whether to read the book sent by the lady next, or go to the psychic to get information.

If you can fish, who wants to work first?

Without much hesitation, Mellen picked up the book called The Robin Lefali's Family Adventure Guide.

The letter said that the book had a limit on the number of views, and it seemed to be very precious, and the housekeeper told him not to let others read it, and to remember to return it to his wife after reading it.

However, Mellen opened it and saw nothing special.

It's as if this is an ordinary biography, and the story in it is cliché and boring.

But I don't know what's going on, looking at it, Melen actually fainted inexplicably.

When he opened his eyes again, he suddenly found that he had appeared in a brightly lit wooden house, and had turned into a middle-aged man with a thin body and a full beard!

"This ......"

After looking around, Mellen was shocked to find that she seemed to have entered the home depicted in the book!

The body has become the male owner of this house, not to mention, looking sideways, you can also see a family portrait of a family of three hanging on the wall of the wooden house-

A red-haired young woman is holding a little girl with a gentle and elegant expression, while "he" stands beside the young woman, smiling all over her face.

"What's going on?"

Mellen was stunned.

The letter didn't mention such a thing, did it?

……

Just when Mellen was "experiencing a great change" and was at a loss.

Located in the mestizo association in the southeast corner of Graham.

Kevin, a blonde boy, was almost unable to maintain the polite and polite smile on his face anymore.

"President Victor, please send someone to look for it again, our dear Mr. Iger Wilson."

Kevin, who had been waiting here for most of the afternoon, had a stiff expression at the moment, and although he was still smiling when he spoke, he was gritting his teeth rather than laughing.

"Or at least we should find out, where is our good gentleman?"

"Okay, I'm going to rush the people down there."

The bald middle-aged vice president sitting across from him nodded hurriedly, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and hurriedly walked towards the outside of the meeting room.
