As soon as Mo Fan mentioned the name, it clearly showed that he knew about the incident. The Alps Institute had also heard about how Philip had betrayed the Sacred Hall of Liberty and was caught in New York.

“If you still doubt me, you can ask the people of the Sacred Hall of Liberty,” Mo Fan went on.

Mo Fan did not tell them he had learned about Philip’s daughter from Li Yu’e. These people were already biased toward her. If she was involved again, he had no idea how Headmistress Perry, Sheryl, Edith, and the others would treat her in the future.

“We weren’t doubting you, it’s just that…” Ceylan let out a sigh.

“Humph, her father was a traitor, and so was her daughter; they were truly father and daughter, indeed!” Headmistress Perry harrumphed coldly. She clearly hated their guts!

“What did she do?” Mo Fan inquired.

“I’ll say it,” Brianca spoke up when she saw Ceylan and Perry were not willing to say anything about the incident. “Remember I told you when we were at the mountain that the Alps Institute was founded by a Forbidden Mage?”

“Yeah,” Mo Fan nodded.

“The Forbidden Mage was from the Parthenon Temple, an elder who was persecuted by the Parthenon Temple. We can’t tell you her name, but you only need to know that since the Alps Institute was founded, the Parthenon Temple has been our enemy. The Parthenon Temple has picked on us countless times ever since the school was established. Therefore, the Alps Institute has an unshakeable rule: no student of the Alps Institute shall have any contact with the people of the Parthenon Temple, let alone joining them!” Brianca said.

Mo Fan gaped. He did not know what to say.

It suddenly became clear to him what the incident was about!

“Yuria was from the same batch as I was. Her cultivation was slightly weaker than mine, but her primary Element was the Psychic Element, while her secondary Element was the Healing Element. She was Headmistress Perry’s student at first, until she became Miss Ceylan’s student… when she was away from the school for training, she met a Muse from the Parthenon Temple. She learned a lot from the Muse, and the Muse was interested in making her a disciple of the Parthenon Temple.

“Yuria was extremely passionate when it came to magic. She didn’t really care about the opposition, she just wanted to learn more and explore more magic. Regarding that, the Parthenon Temple’s expertise in the Healing Element and the Psychic Element is obviously unmatched, thus the Parthenon Temple became the most ideal place for Yuria.”

“So you sentenced her to death?” Mo Fan asked coolly, looking at the others.

“No way, we aren’t lunatics from a primitive society!” Headmistress Perry yelled at him

“We didn’t do anything like that. We liked her very much. Her passion for magic impressed us so much that we could not help but think that if every student in the Alps Institute was like her, we would overtake the Parthenon Temple in no time,” Ceylan said.

“How did she die?” Mo Fan asked.

“She killed herself,” Edith said.

“Oh? A person that is so passionate about magic is the last person that would end their own life. Did you force her to do it?” Mo Fan directly asked Headmistress Perry.

Headmistress Perry was enraged. She pointed at Mo Fan and said, “Why would I do something like that?”

“I strongly believe it’s possible based on what you did to me,” Mo Fan shot back.

“Mo Fan, Headmistress Perry isn’t as bad as you think. She has been stricter to students since what happened to Yuria, to prevent the students from doing anything extreme,” Ceylan spoke up.

Mo Fan looked at Ceylan, then at Perry. The girl Yuria was their beloved disciple. He could easily guess how great of a talent she was from their reaction.

“We didn’t force her to do anything. It’s just that after she came back from training, I was told that she had the intention to join the Parthenon Temple, so I scolded her and asked her to reflect on it in the cave of Faerun Waterfall,” Headmistress Perry said.

“I don’t think that would provoke anyone to kill themselves?” Mo Fan said.

“Humph, she completely changed after she came back from training. She stopped listening to me and even left the school without permission to meet with the Muse. She even signed a Soul Contract with the Parthenon Temple to swear loyalty to them without our permission! That traitor, she betrayed us all!” Headmistress Perry almost jumped into the air as she blurted that out. She had borne the grudge for a long time, and it was still bothering her today.

“Actually, I spoke with Headmistress Perry back then. If the Parthenon Temple could provide her with a better environment, we would consider letting her go and secretly erase her records at our school so she could join the Parthenon Temple with another identity, at least not as a student of the Alps Institute… However, she escaped from Faerun Waterfall and went to the Parthenon Temple while she still had the seal of the Alps Institute on her. She wantonly declared her intention to join the Parthenon Temple to embarrass us. Even the dean, who rarely interferes with secular matters, was infuriated because of it…” Ceylan said.

“It’s true that what she did wasn’t right,” Mo Fan agreed.

“She was truly evil, the disgrace of my life!” Headmistress Perry shouted.

“We didn’t understand what she was thinking. She would never do anything like that. Even though she was passionate about magic, she was friendly and respectful to everyone,” Ceylan looked at Brianca.

Brianca nodded. For a long period of time, Brianca had admired Yuria’s ability to keep up with her cultivation while maintaining a close relationship with the others.

“She was obviously led astray by those wicked women of the Parthenon Temple; what other reason could it be!?” Headmistress Perry said.

“Wouldn’t she have a bright future, then? Why did she commit suicide in the end?” Mo Fan asked.

“She came back eventually, I bet the Muse tricked her, or used her to make the Alps Institute a laughing stock to the world. After everything she did, she still lied to us that she never joined the Parthenon Temple. She only escaped to tell the Muse that she had decided not to take her offer. She had planned to stay at the Alps Institute… such nonsense!” Headmistress Perry said.

Headmistress Perry was reluctant to say anything at first, but whenever she spoke, she would spill everything. It had obviously bothered her for a long time.

Ceylan noticed that Headmistress Perry was being a little emotional with her explanation. She said, “Yuria told us that she never joined the Parthenon Temple. In order to prove that she never did anything to humiliate the Alps Institute, she slit her wrists so her blood would permeate the soil in Roia Garden…”

“What’s Roia Garden?” Mo Fan asked.

“Roia Garden was where the Forbidden Mage cast a Psychic Spell. If someone swears an oath with their soul and drips their blood into the soil, the Roia Flowers in the garden will blossom if the person is telling the truth, and the seal of her soul belongs to the Alps,” Ceylan explained.

Ceylan paused for a long time. Mo Fan was thinking, and did not interrupt.

Ceylan was calmly explaining the incident at first, but as she proceeded to explain the next part, her eyes were brimming with tears, and her friendly face twisted in pain. She could not find any words after a long time.

Yurai was like a daughter to Headmistress Perry and Ceylan. No matter how angry they were at her betrayal, no matter how the others despised her, they were still struggling to let it go. Even as she recalled the incident, she was overwhelmed by grief and pain instead of anger, and the same went with Headmistress Perry!

“When her blood fell on the soil, the Roia Flowers did not react…” Brianca knew the two women were struggling to continue speaking. She said to Mo Fan, “She was lying. Everyone was watching her, and we all believed she lied.”

“She seemed to be in disbelief, too. Her blood continued to flow in the garden, but the Roia Flowers did not blossom. She just stood there…”

Mo Fan could feel his heart racing when Brianca finished.

He could imagine the girl called Yuria standing on the soil that was the only way to prove her innocence, and the determined look on her face gradually turning paler as she lost her blood!

“The flowers did not blossom in the end?” Mo Fan asked.

“It hasn’t, even now…”

“Is there a chance that the Roia Flowers stopped working as intended?” Mo Fan asked.

“No, it’s a forbidden spell, nothing could ever go wrong… besides, she is dead. It no longer matters what the answer was,” Brianca said.

“That’s true,” Mo Fan nodded.

The room fell silent for some time. Even Mo Fan felt his nose tingling after listening to the story, let alone the people that witnessed it in person. Headmistress Perry and Ceylan were extremely bothered by her death. It did not matter if their student betrayed the school or not, the remorse on their faces clearly indicated if they could go back in time to the day, they would have stopped the girl from waiting for the flowers to bloom, instead of watching her life slowly drain away…

The person that would have a strong hatred for the school was none other than Yuria, but the girl was already dead. Even if she turned into a vengeful spirit, she could not possibly be responsible for the things that had happened, including poisoning Herr Casa and placing him under a Curse.

“So what does it have to do with Herr Casa’s situation?” Edith and Sheryl eventually asked.

“Isn’t anyone confused by Amelia’s death? It really feels like Herr Casa’s life is a lot more precious than Amelia’s life in your eyes,” Mo Fan wondered aloud.

“Amelia’s death?” Brianca asked, looking confused.

The others were startled. As they recalled that, they immediately felt a great chill running down their spine, giving them goosebumps!
