P.S. Happy May Day to all!

――――――――――――――――

Mr. Grand hadn't returned, John still needed to rest, and Carlo's request was puzzling.

"Ah...... Isn't this hotel good?" Aisha blinked in confusion, and Carlo lowered his gaze, not avoiding Aisha's gaze but not looking directly at her, but still closing his lips in silence.

It's really inconvenient to move out now, it's hard to rent a carriage, Xiulin is going back, not to mention that there shouldn't be any other hotels adjacent to the treatment center in Price City. And, more importantly, why did Carlo suddenly say such a thing?

"Is it because of Angel?"

Ivan looked up in Carlo's direction.

Carlo's expression changed suddenly, the original Yan Sù's face seemed to be distorted by some kind of outburst of love, his eyebrows were tightly twisted, his face was pale, and after a few seconds, he walked down the stairs.

"Yafil, I have something to tell you. Carlo glanced at Ivan out of the corner of his eye, and strode out of the hotel door.

In an alley diagonally across the street, Carlo stopped, and he stepped out of the way. His brow still didn't stretch, and he looked at Ivan with a wary gaze as if hostile.

This reminded Ivan of Carlo's inexplicable bad attitude when they had not yet arrived in the kingdom of Ola, and when they met at Webster Fortress. Ivan didn't know where he had offended Carlo lately, but he still subconsciously followed Carlo's footsteps.

Carlo should have something important to talk to him alone.

"What's the matter?" Seeing that Carlo was silent for a long time, Ivan took the initiative to ask.

"You helped the Wizards' Church escape?"

The utterly emotionless voice was organized into simple, straightforward questions, and Ivan froze, first feeling that the subject had changed too suddenly, and then a chill ran down his spine and onto his head.

"You, what do you mean?"

What happened in the town of Taka Mo will not be explained in a moment. Ivan didn't feel like he had helped the wizards, at best...... Let them escape. But why did Carlo know what happened, and what did Carlo hear?

"You're in collusion with an illegal magician, you're with him—"

At this point, Carlo, who had always been calm, had already gritted his teeth, his fists clenched tightly, and the green tendons burst out from the back of his hand, and he spat out the name in an extremely hateful tone.

"--Your Highness Rey, together with you, helped the culprit of the attack on Webster Fortress escape the sanctions of the Alliance, did you do these things?"

Overwhelming anger erupted from Carlo's eyes, and Ivan subconsciously took a step back, his heart trembling. He suddenly understood why Carlo had such a hostile look in Webster Fortress.

Carlo and His Highness Rey, aka Raven, are enemies.

"Who did you listen to?" Ivan gasped hard and began to think back to the events of that time. When he sent Ulysses, the Grand Elder of the Wizarding Society, back to the Wizards' Order, and joined the Raven Society, the four rescued clerks also expressed their incomprehension, could it be them?

"Caterina Sellin has suppressed all the bad news against you! you are clearly Flotica's subordinate!" Carlo suddenly rushed forward, reaching out and grabbing Ivan's shirt, the difference in height made Ivan suddenly have some difficulty breathing. Carlo's eyebrows were raised and he roared in a terrifying voice he had never had.

"You deceived me!"

"I didn't!"

Ivan raised his hand to clasp Carlo's wrist, his chest was uncomfortable, it shouldn't be because he was picked up by Carlo, "I didn't lie to you! I really have nothing to do with Lord Flotica, I'm just ......"

Something suddenly came to mind.

Ivan lowered his hand

"It's Ballan who sues you. He said lightly, the disgust in his voice surprised him, "It turns out that your relationship with Ballan is so good, it's not what I thought I was......"

Originally, I wondered who had gotten the first report on the incident of the Taka Mo Wizarding Society, but now I have figured it out. Ballan knew that Ivan had let go of the wizards in Takamo Town, and even if the Wizard Alliance later occupied Takamo Town, it did not capture many of the backbone of the Wizarding Society, including Great Elder Ulysses and Elder Algernon. Aisha brought the news of the puppet army's imminent attack into the Taka Desert Crater, which was tantamount to tipping off the enemies of the Wizard Alliance.

By that time, Ivan had already confessed to Ballan, and had made a mistake that he was one of Laxise Flotica's men. If he didn't, Barran couldn't have let him go.

But Ballan would tell Sù Carlo about it! If you think about it, it's not impossible, didn't Ballan talk to Carlo about Xiulin before? They actually have a very close relationship, right?

Carlo suddenly let go of his hand and quickly stepped back, his gloomy face showing a very wary expression. As soon as Ivan's toes hit the ground, he threw his fist at Carlo's face in disregard.

Carlo raised his hand to catch it. Carlo's strength was obviously greater than Ivan's, and he directly pressed his shoulder against the opposite wall, Ivan's right hand that was grabbed lit up with a bright silver light, Carlo jumped diagonally backwards, and easily removed the thunder scepter in his trench coat and blocked it in front of the raised blade.

"Don't you also have a lot of things to hide from me? Why should you hold me accountable for what I have done! Anyway, those clerks have been rescued, and the purpose of the mission has not been achieved?"

The irrepressible anger made the Sword of Illusory Light in Ivan's hand extremely sharp for a brief moment, and the handle of the Thunder Scepter made of refined metal was streaked out with a striking fire. Surprisingly, Carlo didn't use magic at all, he just relied on his agility, and at the moment when Ivan's strength weakened and he was about to retract his sword, he suddenly rushed forward and slammed the end of the staff handle between Ivan's ribs.

The sharp pain forced Ivan to let go of the sword in his hand, and Carlo raised his left hand and grabbed him directly by the neck. Behind the wall was the wall, Carlo looked fiercely at Ivan who was being pressed against the wall, deliberately lowered his voice, and asked through gritted teeth.

"What exactly do you want to do, why did you ask to come to the Kingdom of Ura? Do you know the plan of Her Highness Angel?"

Suddenly, Carlo's eyes widened.

Perhaps it was because of the same anger that made him, who had always been calm, lose his composure, and spit out a very important name from his mouth. He hesitated for a moment, then slowly tightened the left hand that was holding Ivan's neck.

"Stop!"

The street at the mouth of the alley suddenly resounded with the girl's crisp scream, and Aisha tensed her face and raised her magic magic weapon pistol at Carlo with a trembling hand.
