A few hours passed, and now, later in the night, only Meredith, Luke, and Megan were in that room. The moon was shining brightly in the night sky of the academy, you could see the stars helping to light that room, along with the magical artifacts that glowed in that room.

One of the windows was open, and the night wind began to blow into the room. It moved the curtains and shook the hair of Megan, who was sitting in front of Luke's bed. Meredith also had her hair slightly messed up. With the wind coming in, Megan closed the window using magic, moving her hand as she continued reading.

*Wuush*

Sitting on his bed, Luke stood with his arms crossed thinking. He was looking up, his eyes closed toward the ceiling, with a look of annoyance on his face. The half-wolf was reviewing what he should do in the days to come. His next step would no doubt be to resolve the situation with Orion, after all, Luke was worried that he would end up making enemies at the academy.

Megan was still pensive in her room. She was sitting on a white chair, which looked like a kind of circular armchair made of a soft fabric. On her lap was a pillow, where the girl had left one of the grimoires that Zhanid had lent her. That wide book was open, she was intently leafing through those pages that could bring the long-awaited solution to the half-wolf's problems.

Shaking her head as she placed her hand on her chin, the girl was acting as if she was confirming her own thoughts. While, with her other hand, she was playing with a part of her hair. She only stopped this unusual action when she needed to turn a page in that long grimoire.

There was a hush hanging over the room, but both Megan and Luke were excited about their upcoming challenges. The night wind was now blowing on the window, rattling the glass without so much force. Within that group, only Meredith still appeared to be uncomfortable. When Luke opened his eyes and turned to the half-fox, he soon realized that something was weighing on the girl's heart.

"You don't have to hide or guard, I know when something is bothering you. What happened?" Luke said.

*Sigh*

Meredith sighed as she looked at Megan. The half-fox then closed her eyes and shook her head, as if trying to make her thoughts go away.

Megan soon realized what was happening and stopped looking at the grimoire, she then lifted her head to enter the conversation. Looking into Meredith's eyes, which were evidently strange, she decided to question.

"Am I disturbing you? If you want I can leave you two alone." She said.

"No, it's not that...it's okay." Meredith said.

After another worried sigh, the half-fox continued.

"I'd like to know how the academy fares with regard to chimeras? I know it's an unusual question, but you could say that Luke and I have a certain problem with that subject." Meredith said, as she pointed to her ears. After all, there were those who thought that creating chimeras was not that different from a half-beast. Although that kind of prejudice was something not so talked about.

The half-fox's idea was simple, to check whether or not she could trust Megan. There was no point in trying to hide this situation, after all, she knew that this could only create more problems in the future. The ideal thing would be to check now whether or not they could trust Zhanid and Megan.

After having approached other girls at the academy, Meredith realized that there were several different people within that institution. Some students were not only foreigners but also opposed to Melki's empire. Because she had made these new friendships at the academy, much of the fears that had embraced the girl had been calmed.

Megan found the question strange, which was astonished on the girl's face. But, she soon replied.

"Chimeras are in the restricted activity group at the academy, the institution does not support that kind of magical practice on living beings. Although not that it's okay to study plant manipulation." Concluded the girl.

Meredith's ears perked up after receiving this news. Knowing that the academy was against this kind of practice was a relief, after all, if the group denounced this practice, in theory the problem would be solved.

When Luke heard this, he soon understood what it could be about. It made no sense that Meredith had brought this up for no reason. His face was now worried too, with a visible look of irritation.

'Isn't it possible, they're here too...?'

Megan was a smart girl, she knew that this question had a reason. So, after closing the grimoire, she asked.

*Wuft*

With the abrupt closing of the pages, some dust flew up.

"So, who is doing this and how did you find out?" Megan said. All the dust that the book had loosened ended up flying in front of the wizard girl's face, who was holding back from sneezing in front of the two of them.

Luke then turned around, looking the half-fox in the eye, and then nodded. Confirming that she could talk about what was happening now. Megan was apparently not an enemy. Meredith then explained about the conversation she overheard from Max Willford, however, she didn't go into the details of commenting on how the professor was communicating with a demon.

Megan had her hand on her chin again, as she listened to this story, several thoughts ran through her head. By the time Meredith concluded what she was talking about, Megan had wondered what they could do to resolve this situation.

"I never got along very well with Mr.Willford. He hasn't been a teacher at the academy that many years, but he always had a kind of extremely strange energy around him. Other than that this woman seeker type of man is quite inconvenient."

*Sigh*

Sighed megan, after venting out.

"We're going to need to get some documents proving that he's taking advantage of botany research to create a chimera... Maybe if we can infiltrate his lab." said Megan.

At that very moment, a series of flashbacks flashed through the half-wolf's mind. This time, if Meredith were to break into this lab, Luke would be sure to keep this professor busy. All those unpleasant memories not only flashed through Luke's eyes, but also through those of the half-fox, who was equally disturbed by this conversation.

All three ended up sighing at the same time.

*Sigh*

When they realized this, the group started laughing. It was a small moment of relief in the midst of so many new conflicts. It eased some of the stress that all three were feeling. Megan was now pondering how they could get the information they needed.

"But this Professor Max, what guarantees that he is working alone?" Luke said.

"Hmmm, as far as I know he is in a botany research group alongside Mr. Hoshigaki. But getting into his lab wouldn't be a problem, since old Hoshi is a good friend of Zhanid's. I get along, I can't imagine that gentleman performing that kind of task." Megan said.

"Still, I believe it would be ideal to investigate him as well. Kind faces can hide big lies." Meredith said.

All three nodded their agreement.

"Since you are closer to this professor, could you look into it Megan?" Luke said.

"I don't see a problem, he doesn't have a private lab. The problem will be what to do about Willford..." Answered Megan.

The three again fell silent again. Each was focused on their own line of thought. Trying to find a solution or devise a plan.

Megan concluded that if Max Willford was hiding and conducting forbidden research. In theory, there should only be three possible locations to check, however, this could turn out to be more complicated than it seems.

Every faculty member at the academy was entitled to have a research room. There would be one of the places where they should check. First it would be necessary to find out if he was really using his room.

When Megan went back through her memories looking for clues that could help this investigation. One of the problems she remembered was an old case from the academy. A combat magic professor had been expelled after using a research lab to "play around" with his female students. The problem was that this was not his lab, which made it difficult to find out.

In this case, perhaps Willford was using another facility to conduct his research. It would be necessary to verify this possibility before taking the actions of the main plan.

The other possibility would be the room itself in the teachers' dormitory, it would not be impossible for Megan to enter and search the area looking for documents.

Finally, there was the laboratory in conjunction with Professor Hoshigaki. However, this was undoubtedly the easiest place to access, he would hardly keep confidential documents in such an accessible place.

Even if this possibility was a little more complicated, he could be using different locations to spread his documents. So that it would be more difficult to identify and report his actions.

If Mr. Max was taking advantage of this, it would be necessary that all possible locations were checked at the same time. This way they would avoid creating suspicion or being discovered, and they would be able to gather all the necessary information to request his expulsion from the academy.
