One of Miss Aie’s eyebrows raised up as she stared at Gustav, "What makes you say this? Where are you going with these assumptions?" She asked with a suspicious tone.
"Well, what if... I an just what if, planet Humbad was still in existence and the history books have been wrong all along?" Gustav said with a look of contemplation.
"Hmm," Miss Aie gazed lingered on Gustav suspiciously.
Miss Aie knew Gustav wasn’t one to ntion things like this flippantly. She could tell that this thought must be coming from sowhere, or sothing must have triggered it.
"Hmm, I feel like you’re onto sothing but sorry to burst your bubble... Planet Humbad is no longer in existence just as the history books say," Miss Aie said with a look of certainty before going back to closing her eyes once again.
"Hmm?" Gustav had a confused expression as he exclaid.
’Why does she look so sure?’ he wondered.
As if to answer his unspoken question Miss Aie voiced out, "I’ve been to that part of the galaxy before... There’s nothing there. It’s just an empty place in space. Void of life and beauty. Only the stench of destruction lingers in where Humbad used to lie," Miss Aie muttered with a slightly distressed voice.
"Oh..." Gustav mumbled.
’This is gonna be harder than I thought,’ Gustav said internally with a slightly conflicted look.
"But for you to ntion it... Tell what you’re onto. Why did you bring up such a topic?" Miss Aie asked while opening one eye.
"Hmm well it’s just a hunch... A strong hunch... Miss Aie I believe the planet of Humbad still exists. I know that contradicts what you’ve seen but still..." Gustav couldn’t tell Miss Aie that the system gave him a quest.
"For so reasons I need to find it," Gustav added.
"I see... Then I know what to do," Miss Aie replied.
"Huh? What are you planning, Miss Aie?" Gustav asked.
"You need proof of its existence or inexistence... I’ll send soone to investigate," Miss Aie voiced out.
"But I won’t be seeing you anymore from tomorrow... I’m on a tight deadline for this research," Gustav stated.
"Numbskull, there are still many ways for to communicate with you even though you’ll be in the MBO camp... Don’t worry, once I have anything I’ll reach out to you," Miss Aie replied.
"Ah that’s a relief then... I’m counting on you miss Aie," Gustav smiled as he spoke.
Miss Aie stared at him suspiciously before shaking her head with a wry smile on her face and going back to her ditation.
’I’ll also be conducting investigations from my own side... Hopefully, I’ll be able to discover sothing while in the MBO camp,’ Gustav said Internally.

A few hours later, Gustav was back ho. He would be leaving from here to the airport with Miss Aie and Angy the next day.
Although he had decided not to speak to Angy until she did the task he ntioned, eting like this was inevitable. He couldn’t totally avoid her.
Just like that, the night went by, and Gustav woke up early the next morning to perform his daily tasks as quickly as he could.
He only finished around seven am and went to take his bath and dress up.
The previous day he had already cleared out his apartnt, except for his bed.
He moved all his things to Miss Aie’s residence. Apparently, Miss Aie already bought the place, so he decided to keep all the stuff that he couldn’t carry with him there.
Gustav took all his necessary luggage that included several pieces of equipnt and pieces of clothes.
They arrived at the airport around eight am, where a private aircraft was already waiting for them in one of the hangars.
These aircraft were only privy to the participants who had been enlisted into the MBO.
Gustav happened to et Ria, Teee, Glade, Matilda, and so other participants that he recognized from back then.
Glade gave him a piercing stare as he sat sowhere in the middle on the left side.
Gustav ignored the stare and kept looking forward with an unbothered expression.
Miss Aie could more or less sense the hidden tension between Gustav and Angy on their way here, but she had decided not to butt into his affairs like that.
Especially this type that seed quite delicate.
The aircraft lifted off into the sky, and in a few seconds, they were halfway across the city.
Angy’s parents, along with Phil and a lot of other parents, had tears in their eyes as they waved off at the five aircraft that disappeared into the clouds above.
Reporters and dia agencies had captured this scene, and a hundred mixedbloods that left the city at this mont had beco more popular than ever.
They believed that the next ti these mixedbloods appeared back in the city, they’d have beco very powerful, and they also believed that the achievents these hundred would accomplish in the future would allow the city to be recognized even more.
This sa scene was happening in practically every city in the world except for those that didn’t have mixedbloods who participated in the entrance test.

Gustav had a headphone on his head as he listened to so music while staring at the clouds.
------
"Ah yes, he’s incredible."
"He strikes as edible."
"Prince charming, his iris glow."
"glow glow glow magical."
"Co take in your arms..."
------
’Yusha songs are quite soothing to the ears... Too bad I won’t be able to attend her concerts anyti soon,’ Gustav thought as he rembered the purple-haired dazzling singer.
The aircraft passed over the ocean that Miss Aie nearly disintegrated the day before; however, there was no sign that sothing happened the day before.
After passing above several cities, they finally arrived above a small wasteland that led to an exalted mountain range.
This place existed between the borders of two cities, which is currently the highest mountain region on earth.
An MBO base was located atop this mountain region. It was the sa MBO base that the participants were brought to after the completion of the entrance test two weeks back.
