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
”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.
