Melantha suddenly showed up beside Baroque.
After asking the other workers to go away, she revealed a serious expression and questioned the old man.
"Mister Baroque… Can you tell me why Bouy abandoned her shell and invaded him as her core?"
Unlike the others, Melantha knew Parasite Queen's true identity—Bouy the Parasite, a mutated Elementalist.
By using her Parasite Art, Bouy could fully manipulate someone, even "becoming" her target.
And this was not the only thing Melantha knew.
For example, Bouy appeared to be a member of Brute Cavern, but she was actually a spy placed here by Floating Mech City.
All wizard organizations more or less held grudges against each other. Even those who appeared as allies might have spies hidden in someone's place.
