You call this the mastermind?

When he was imprisoned before, Alfred immediately used the method of "staying still and controlling movement" to deal with all kinds of changes.

As a result, he waited and waited, but the heir did not come to him, as if he had forgotten him.

Alfred therefore decided to do something.

The Holy Spirit Jonah he captured was one of the avatars of the gatekeeper Prescott, and he had several other avatars active.

Using this connection, Alfred, as a former demon king, easily attached himself to his current identity, the rumor spreader Dryden, and contaminated him for his own use.

This actually happened for a while.

Others certainly did not know about this secret situation, so he witnessed some very interesting things with his own eyes.

When Mellen used the Book of Secret Languages ​​to send the matter of Kevin to the Holy Spirit team investigating Jonah's disappearance, he was even on the scene and participated in the discussion.

So he knew clearly that at this time in Saint Grant Castle, a group of people were doing things behind the scenes, but they obviously underestimated the ability of the heir and were caught.

Alfred didn't know who this group of people was.

But he was very sure that they would fail.

This was not just for the current situation. He also thought of the chief judge Christine behind the heir. As a collaborator of the Holy Spirit, he knew clearly what kind of power she had.

So Alfred was ready to use their failure to plan for himself.

The heir forgot about him, and the cooperating chief judge seemed to have ignored him for the time being, but he couldn't forget himself.

The sooner he got out of trouble, the sooner he could do something.

As a former demon king, he was actually very busy at this time, and he didn't have much free time to be a stone and motionless.

Therefore, Alfred spread rumors about the heir to attract the heir's attention, and at the same time found the group of people behind the scenes and claimed to join them.

It was not difficult to find this group of people, because there was only one place in the entire Saint Grant Castle that could hide from the heir's attention.

He had been to this place when he stole something.

It was not difficult to join them. He was naturally accepted by revealing his identity as a "bad guy" and his sincerity in helping the undercover to pass on information.

In this way, the heir who was secretly paying attention to him would of course see the existence of this group of people directly.

He was giving the heir a gift.

But this was not the end, but a beginning.

The people behind the scenes must have something to rely on to make trouble in Saint Grant Castle. Finding out what this reliance is and what their purpose is is the second gift prepared by Alfred.

This matter is also not difficult.

Although he was not trusted when he first joined this organization and could not touch many things, he was a former demon king after all. For him, most people in this organization were just minions.

So he easily learned the identity of the leader who controlled this group of people.

A being called the Black Knight.

As of now, things have been somewhat clear.

However, this information alone is not enough to buy his freedom.

So Alfred relied on his identity as a Holy Spirit clone and spread the location of the Black Knights to the Holy Spirit groups investigating Jonah's disappearance.

The battle began.

The Saint Grant Castle, which was undercurrent because of the death of student Lambert, immediately became very lively.

The sudden battle was extremely loud, with rumbling sounds and the surrounding ground and buildings shaking constantly, as if it was going to turn the world upside down.

Although they were prepared, the Black Knights, who did not realize that they would be so exposed, were surrounded by a group of Holy Spirits and were no match at all, especially since their leader, the Black Knight, was not in Saint Grant Castle.

The ending can be imagined.

The Felix family, who were also participants but could not find the way, were stunned.

As for the assassination plan that this group of people had originally planned while the heir was out, it became a shadow of a thing.

The former demon king Alfred, who had accomplished all this, retired with success, and at the same time, he was confident that after doing these things, he had already demonstrated his sincerity.

In addition, he was at least a collaborator of the chief judge, so there was no reason for her to let the heir continue to imprison her and remain indifferent.

"The so-called Black Knight does not seem to be simple. I tricked this Black Knight, and there is no way he does not want to retaliate."

Even if the enemy of the enemy is not a friend, he can at least be used to kill someone with a borrowed knife.

Alfred felt that if it really didn't work, he could also propose to help the heir solve the trouble of the Black Knight in exchange for freedom.

Or one of the conditions.

In short, everything can be discussed.     What's the matter with imprisoning him there regardless of anything?

...

Melen actually did not forget the existence of the former demon king.

However, considering that he wanted to use Jonah, who was captured by him, to instruct the Holy Spirit to stab him, Melen did not think of letting him go for the time being.

But now, it seems that he can't let him go.

"Since he can help you in this way, he can also mess with you in this way."

As a collaborator, Holy Spirit Christine easily recognized who the existence being observed by Melen was.

She actually wanted Melen to let this demon king go a long time ago. After all, she was also the reason why he was imprisoned in the first place.

It's just that a lot of things have happened recently, and Meren's importance has been increasing for her, so it's hard to talk about it for a while.

The time is right to propose it now.

"Courtesy first, then attack."

Mellen was certainly aware of this situation.

Everything that happened before was dazzling, and when the dust settled, it was already very late.

When he discovered that this person was a friend rather than an enemy, Mellen had already arrived at the secret cabin and found the Holy Spirit who was staying with Mrs. Chelsea.

"It's more than that."

The Holy Spirit in the mirror said in a weird tone: "It's a good thing for you that Alfred can stand on your side to cause trouble for the Black Knight."

"You mean, this black knight is very strong?"

Mellen asked with a raised eyebrow.

He first learned about the Black Knight when he saw an oil painting from an "ally" of the nun.

Later, using the Holy Spirit's Wordless Book, he learned that this existence was a monster that was assimilated to the limit by the black sun, and could be called a natural disaster walking in the world.

No more information is available at the moment.

"Of course it's strong."

The Holy Spirit said: "It cannot be killed, destroyed, cannot be sealed, and its destructive power is comparable to a catastrophe. This kind of monster was not a big or small trouble for the Kingdom of Heaven in the past, but it is just a big trouble for you now. Needless to say."

"Alfredo obviously doesn't know the details of this black knight, so he helped you out without any worries. If he knew, he would definitely shrink tighter than a turtle."

Mellen nodded thoughtfully upon hearing this.

Based solely on the words of the Holy Spirit, he actually wouldn’t think much about it.

But the oil painting he saw not long ago made Melen pay more attention to the Black Knight.

Although he was not sure whether the oil painting was a deliberate reminder or was seen by him accidentally, in any case, in the eyes of the nun's "ally", this knight seemed to be a being who could compete with the Child of Destiny.

It won't be simple.

At the moment, if the Demon King can be used as a leader to test the details of this existence, it will certainly be better than taking action himself.

"If you say so, let's talk to him."

Meren then said: "Let him go once we've negotiated."

So happy?

Although the Holy Spirit knew the existence of the oil painting, he did not know the identity of Mellen's destined son.

So I was surprised that he could listen to what I said so easily.

But this was obviously a good thing for her, so a smile appeared on her lips unconsciously.

Things she didn't plan to say were naturally revealed by her.

"More than that, asking the Felix family to continue the conflict with the Black Knight will also be good for you."

"Felix?"

Mellen was a little surprised by these words, "Why do you say that?"

"Because this family is one of the Interceptors."

Having said this, the Holy Spirit glanced at Mrs. Chelsea, who was sitting not far away and did not participate in the exchange. Instead, she was frowning at a letter and said meaningfully:

"If it wasn't for this identity, how could the Black Knight go to cause trouble for the Felix family?"
