Milia returned to her room only when the sun rose, as usual. As soon as she entered, Milia realized someone had been inside.
Milia picked up the letter on the table.
In the letter, Alice said many polite things, but her main point was, 'I want to become stronger, and you can make any request; I will try my best to fulfill it.'
Milia initially wanted to refuse Alice, but then she thought about Alexia. At first, she had also refused Alexia, but the result was that Alexia became one of Sino's people, just like her.
"I should tell Phantom-daren about Alice later! Given Phantom-daren's personality, the outcome will probably be the same as Alexia's!" Milia thought to herself.
Princess Rose had originally planned to go home, but as she was boarding the train, she received a reply from her father.
It was her father's handwriting, and he said he was doing well.
She had sent the express letter immediately after Alexia's warning.
Upon learning that nothing was wrong in the Oriana Kingdom and her father was well, Princess Rose abandoned her plans to go home and returned to the Academy.
Sherry watched Sino's competition from beginning to end. She saw Milia, who was so beautiful, charming, and powerful, and Sherry felt that she and Sino were unlikely to be together.
So, she simply gave up all her emotions and devoted herself to her work.
After her painstaking research, she was on the verge of a breakthrough.
Sherry's foster father pushed up his glasses at this moment, looking at Sherry meaningfully.
He had waited too long for this moment; everything was finally going to succeed... That night, on the outskirts of the Royal Capital, a person in full armor appeared. There were a large number of The Order members there.
"The time has come! We will begin our operation tomorrow during the day!"
"Understood! Finally, we can stretch our muscles; we've been waiting so long we're practically moldy!" a person wearing a red headband said.
He had a resounding nickname, Rebellious Game. His name was Rex.
After the man in full armor left, two The Order members secretly departed.
One went to the Mitsugoshi Company, and the other went to Viscount Olba's secret base.
Viscount Olba's secret base contained five times more The Order members than the armored man's subordinates.
And there were also a large number of first-class diabolos children.
There were over thirty first-class diabolos children in total.
Each of them was no less powerful than the first-class diabolos child by the armored man's side, Rebellious Game Rex...
One of the two departing The Order members was from Shadow Garden.
He was a member skilled in disguise and stealth, designated as Number 777.
Because of Viscount Olba's existence, Shadow Garden learned how to infiltrate The Order without being discovered.
That was why Number 777 was able to successfully infiltrate The Order.
The other person was from Viscount Olba's side...
Currently, both Viscount Olba and Shadow Garden already knew the timing for Vice Principal Ruslan Barnett's intended move.
Meanwhile, Vice Principal Ruslan was still smug about his perfect plan.
"I will gain strength, reclaim my seat among the Round Table Knight, and eliminate Shadow Garden!"
Vice Principal Ruslan thought to himself.
And Sherry was still blankly flipping through books, only wanting to successfully research the ancient relic before her.
Sherry appeared clueless in front of Vice Principal Ruslan, and Vice Principal Ruslan was also a clueless fellow in front of Shadow Garden.
His plan had been completely exposed.
It was exposed without Sino revealing anything.
On this day, Sino was in class as usual.
At this moment, Sino felt a slight abnormality; a small portion of his magic power was being absorbed.
At the same time, Sid, Alexia, and Milia also felt the abnormality!
Just then, Princess Rose entered, pushing the door open with two female attendants.
"It's a pleasure to see everyone! Today, we are here regarding the selection of the new Student Council Vice Principal. The previous Vice Principal, Su Te, will no longer serve due to personal reasons, so we plan to hold a vote for the Vice Principal..."
The Student Council members began to chatter on the podium.
Sino and Sid both ignored the person's words; they felt footsteps coming from the corridor.
Princess Rose looked at Sid-dousheng, pondering why Sid-dousheng's willpower was so strong that he could stand up after being knocked down like that, while she couldn't.
"Since I know Sid-dousheng's class, I'll go find him alone after school and ask him!" Princess Rose thought to herself.
"They're here!" Sino and Sid thought simultaneously.
At this moment, the classroom door was violently broken open.
"No one move! We are Shadow Garden!
Everyone obediently raise your hands and surrender, or die!"
The masked The Order members spoke.
"You don't seem to know where this is, do you? How dare you cause trouble in the Magic Swordsman Academy!"
Princess Rose picked up her sword and looked at the three black-clad figures at the door.
"Drop your weapon! Or die!"
"Impossible!"
Princess Rose said, gathering her magic power, but the next second, all the magic power in her body disappeared.
"How did my magic power disappear!"
"Perfect, I'll use you as an example!"
The black-clad figure stabbed at Princess Rose with a sword.
Princess Rose raised her sword to block, but her magic sword was instantly cut in half.
Whether a Magic Swordsman has magic power or not is two different things; a magic sword without magic power can be easily cut by a magic sword with magic power.
"No, stop!" Sid shouted, rushing forward.
"If you're going to kill a chicken to scare the monkeys, you should kill me, the extra! What kind of sense does it make to kill someone who looks like the protagonist!" Sid thought to himself.
Sid rushed forward with a speed far exceeding that of an extra.
Just as Princess Rose was about to be cut, Sid blocked in front of her.
A sword cut into Sid's chest.
Sid immediately spurted blood.
"Sid-dousheng!" Rose cried out.
"President Rose, you must live well!" (Extra's last words, achievement +1)
Sid's head twisted, and his body's heartbeat stopped.
"Sid-dousheng!"
Princess Rose still wanted to do something, but the black-clad figure's sword pointed at her.
"Be obedient, or you'll die too!"
Princess Rose wanted to act, but Sid-dousheng's last words were for her to live well; she couldn't let Sid die in vain... At the same time, several black-clad figures also burst into Alexia's classroom.
"We are Shadow Garden, surrender obediently..."
Alexia found that she couldn't use her magic power. She remembered Sino's teachings: if you can't use your magic power, it means your magic power isn't fine enough and needs to be controlled very precisely, or concentrated to a density that cannot be absorbed.
Alexia's magic power control wasn't good, so she chose the simpler latter option.
Alexia changed her magic power to a denser state and found that it was no longer being absorbed.
She stood up directly.
"Shadow Garden, I remember Shadow Garden members are all women! How could it be you men!"
"Hmph! Perfect, I'll use you to make an example!"
The black-clad figure swung his sword and rushed towards Alexia.
"Watch out, Princess!"
Many people shouted.
But no one took action.
Alexia directly raised her hand, and her magic sword, which was on the sword rack, flew into her hand.
With one swing of her sword, the black-clad figure was instantly cut down.
"Why can you still use magic power, you bastard!" The other black-clad figures shouted.
"Because I'm strong, of course!"
Alexia swung her sword again, cutting down the other The Order members with two strikes.
"Princess Alexia is amazing!"
"Yes! Princess Alexia is too strong!"
Alexia ignored the others. She directly jumped out of the window; she had to find Sino. Only Sino knew what to do now.
Meanwhile, in Sino's classroom, Princess Rose, after a struggle, finally dropped her broken sword.
"We surrender!"
The sound of breaking glass suddenly rang out. Alexia suddenly appeared.
"Here she comes, the protagonist saving the day!" Sid thought to himself.
Alexia, with extreme speed, cut down the black-clad figures here with three swords in one second.
At this moment, Alexia looked at Sid lying dead on the ground.
Sid had been her boyfriend for a while, after all, and Alexia still had some feelings for Sid, the feelings between a person and a dog, a pet and its owner.
"Sid... you're not allowed to die!"
Alexia punched Sid's stopped heart heavily.
Sid immediately spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.
Alexia dodged the blood that sprayed towards her.
Sid had used fine magic power to bind his heart to stop its beating, and Alexia's punch just now happened to break the magic power threads binding his heart.
The magic power threads were very thin, so they were easily broken.
Sid thus came back to life.
"That's great, Sid-dousheng, you're okay!"
Princess Rose said.
Alexia looked at Rose.
"Rose, what are you doing here? Weren't you supposed to go home?"
"My father replied to my letter; he said everything was fine there!"
"That means your father lied!" Alexia stated definitively.
"This is the place, this place encountered resistance!"
Outside the classroom, Diabolos Cult reinforcements arrived.
"Does anyone know what happened here?"
Alexia asked, looking at everyone.
In reality, she was looking at Sino.
"We can't use our magic power!"
"Yes, why can you still use your magic power, Princess Alexia!"
Alexia ignored the others' words; she was waiting for Sino to speak.
Seeing Alexia's expectant gaze, Sino decided not to hide it any longer.
"It's very likely an ancient relic that absorbs magic power. Find Sherry Barnett, the best student in academic research; she might be able to solve it!" Sino said.
'Thanks, Sid-dousheng! Princess Rose, follow me! The rest of you surrender for now; without magic power, you're just dead weight. I'll release the magic power restraint and save you!' Alexia shouted, then rushed out the door, slaughtering the The Order members outside.
She literally carved out a bloody path.
