Comprehensive Comic: Obtaining The Star Cup Starts With The Strength Of The Shadow

In the dark basement, when Alexia and others arrived, there seemed to be some kind of battle happening around them.

A corpse in a white coat fell at the door with a horrified expression. Blood had corroded his clothes. From his posture and movements, it was not clear that he wanted to escape from here.

Besides him, there was another body.

The skin of the corpse showed an inhuman purple color. It was not the appearance of a human being, but more like the product of a failed experiment.

But unlike the fear clearly overflowing from the white coat's face, her expression showed relief.

The strange scene made Alexia, Kleia, and the knights who followed them feel more energetic.

They didn't enter the door until they confirmed there was no danger. There was an iron cage inside, and the red figure was chained inside.

"sister!"

Alexia couldn't help but lost her voice when she saw a familiar face.

"Is it Alexia?"

Alice raised her crimson eyes, and her haggard face made Alexia's heart tremble. She hurriedly broke the lock of the cage and rescued Alice.

"Where's that guy Geno?"

The shackles on Alice's hands were split open by Alexia's sword. Although she was tired that could not be concealed, her thoughts were still clear and she said with a calm face.

"Tell me where he is and I'm going to kill him!"

"Sister, we'll talk about Marquis Jeno later. Are you feeling okay?" Alexia looked at her sister nervously.

Seeing Alexia's worried expression, Alice's excitement was relieved a lot. She suppressed her anger, took a deep breath, and said with soft eyes.

"I'm sorry, Alexia, for making you worry. My health is fine."

Although the relationship between them was much weaker than before, Alexia's sincere concern was not a lie.

When the knights saw Alice, they seemed to have found their backbone again and had questions.

"Your Highness Alice, what is going on here?"

"I was careless."

Alice bitterly explained why she was imprisoned.

Not long before the duel started, she talked to Marquis Jeno, trying to dissuade him from giving up the duel and Alexia's engagement, and expressed her willingness to compensate him herself.

Money, title, anything he can promise can make up for his losses.

After thinking about it, Marquis Geno did not rush to agree. Instead, he invited her to a place and wanted to talk to her alone.

Thinking that Marquis Jeno didn't want to discuss the matter in front of everyone in the Knights, Alice agreed without hesitation.

As a result, when she arrived at the place, what greeted her was not some conversation, but a magic circle that temporarily disabled the magic power.

Alice really didn't expect that the once loyal Marquis Geno would plot against her.

By the time she realized it, it was too late, and she was later put in shackles made of the Demon Sealing Stone and locked in a cage.

"You followed me here. I don't know whether you are naive or stupid?" Marquis Geno sneered.

"But it's okay. I was originally thinking about a reasonable way to kill Rhodes, and then continue to hide my identity and stay in the academy to complete the mission. No need now. I can use your blood, and the effect will be the same. In that case, there is no need to follow him. Show mercy.”

Marquis Geno ignored Alice's murderous gaze and left.

Alice has been imprisoned until now.

"Your Highness Alice, you said you were imprisoned, but what about these two corpses?"

Claire looked down at the body.

It can be seen from the scars on the corpse that the killing method was clean and neat. The force did not destroy more tissues and organs, nor did it give the enemy a chance to survive. It was a precise one-shot kill.

"The man in the white coat seems to be an accomplice of Marquis Geno. He did experiments on another deceased person and turned it into what you see."

When Alice talked about the man in the white coat, there was undisguised disgust in her eyes.

"As for why he died..."

Alice recalled.

"Before you came, a group of people in black cloaks broke into this place. They seemed to be investigating something. They killed one person, and then helped another person who died voluntarily to escape. They took away the experimental medicine and other things that seemed more important. The file data is gone."

"Who are they?"

"I don't know." Facing Claire's question, Alice shook her head and continued.

"I don't know their identities, and their faces are covered. I can only tell based on their conversation voices and body features that they are women, and they are not too old. Of course, I cannot rule out the possibility that they deliberately confused me. .”

Claire had no clue, and the same was true for several others.

"Don't worry about it. The first priority is to arrest Marquis Jeno! He is the culprit of all this! By the way, how did you find this place?" Alice changed the topic and asked doubtfully.

Marquis Jeno had tried so hard to catch her here, and Alice certainly didn't believe that Marquis Jeno would change his mind when the situation came to pass.

Hearing Alice's question, several people looked strange, but it was Alexia who spoke.

"Marquis Jeno said he was killed by Rhodes."

"Killed?" Alice looked at Alexia in surprise.

Others explained what had happened during Princess Alice's absence.

"I see."

Alice said angrily: "Marquis Geno is really crazy!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Alice's expression gradually slowed down. "Thanks to Rhodes, otherwise the academy would have suffered heavy casualties."

"Where are the others?"

Alexia said dejectedly: "Rhodes said there was no need for him to come. I don't want to bother him by making an extra trip, since we can already see the ending."

Even Claire was quite helpless.

Alice was startled, and then a smile appeared on her lips: "It really looks like his character. I have written down what happened today, and I will ask my father to reward him."

Rhodes, whom they were discussing, had returned to his dormitory. When he opened the door, a familiar figure was reflected in his eyes.

The sky outside the window was dyed golden by the afterglow of the setting sun. The girl sat quietly in front of his bed, the golden brilliance dimly intertwined with the girl's body, her clear blue eyes focused on Rhodes, and she spoke slowly.
