After Alice finished dealing with some chaotic matters, she wanted to see Beatrice.
But Beatrice had already left.
Alice returned to the palace, wanting to see her sister Alexia. She was surely feeling down and needed comfort.
But she couldn't find Alexia anywhere.
She asked the guards and servants, but they all said they didn't know.
Alice remembered that Alexia had been a bit dispirited lately.
Especially after she lost both her arms.
"Could Alexia have...!"
Alice thought of the worst-case scenario.
If she herself had lost both arms, she might also want to die.
Alice didn't think of Sino.
She was still a bit reluctant to go find Sino, after all, if she went, she might have to do *that* kind of thing.
She was a bit repulsed by *that* kind of thing.
Alice searched all over the Royal Capital but couldn't find any trace of Alexia.
She had her Crimson Knight Order help with the search as well.
But there was no trace.
Helpless, Alice thought of going to find Sino.
But Sino was inconspicuous in a crowd.
No one in the Knights Order knew him, so how could she find him?
To find an inconspicuous person in the vast Royal Capital, a person she had never met, only knowing his name...
That was a bit of a pipe dream.
In the end, Alice found nothing.
Alice thought of Claire.
To find Sino, perhaps Claire would have a way.
But the news she received was that...
Claire was currently on an internship outside.
Escorting a carriage, she had left the Royal Capital a long time ago.
Alice now had no other option... "Alexia!"
Alice stayed at the Crimson Knight Order's headquarters, looking dejected.
She stayed there so that she would know immediately if there was any news.
The sun gradually set.
Alice was now crouched in a corner of the room.
She was crouching in the corner, feeling very lost.
At this moment, the door was pushed open.
Alexia walked in.
"Sister, were you looking for me for something?"
"Alexia!"
Alice hugged Alexia.
"That's great, you didn't do anything rash!"
"Why would I do anything rash?"
Alice was stunned when she heard this.
"You completely lost both your arms, wouldn't you think about doing something rash?"
"No, I wouldn't!"
At this moment, Alice suddenly realized that Alexia was hugging her.
Both of her arms were perfectly intact.
"Alexia, how did your arms grow back?!"
When Alexia's arms were healed, Alice was only surprised.
Now seeing Alexia's arms grow back...
This had already shocked Alice's worldview.
How could a normal person's severed arm grow back?
"This is Sino's power! His magic can make lost arms grow back, but if the person dies, it's impossible!"
"Oh, right, Royal Sister, keep this a secret! Just tell everyone I got a prosthetic arm from the Mitsugoshi Company!"
Eta was very interested in inventions.
At Sino's suggestion, Eta had already made prosthetic limbs. They could replace normal limbs, but their flexibility was poor, though they could still be used.
"Oh, right, Royal Sister, do you want to go find him tonight?"
Alexia asked.
Alice knew who "he" referred to.
It referred to Sino.
"What for?"
"He's very powerful, I want him to teach me how to get stronger!"
"Then, do we have to do *that*...?"
"Of course! Does Sister like to get things for free?"
Alice rejected Alexia's suggestion.
Alice didn't want to go find Sino unless it was absolutely necessary.
"Oh, right! Beatrix, the War God, plans to settle in the Midgar Kingdom!"
"What! Lady Beatrice is going to stay here?!"
"Of course! And she said to just find her any easy job, and it would be fine!"
"I immediately had her join the Crimson Knight Order. Sister, can you let her be my bodyguard?"
"Lady Beatrice as your bodyguard, isn't that a bit inappropriate?"
"It's fine, she'll agree!"
...At night, in a noble's residence in the Royal Capital.
A student from the Midgar Magic Swordsman Academy was staring at a portrait, his right hand doing something unknown.
"Milia, I will definitely have you!"
The portrait was painted by a very skilled artist in the Royal Capital.
After only meeting Milia a few times, the artist had painted her so lifelike.
This man was named Su Te.
He was the former Vice President of the Magic Swordsman Academy's Student Council.
After losing to Milia in the academy's internal selection competition, he had been obsessed with her.
His father was Marquis Bruce.
He was a minor cadre of The Order, and his father was the leader of the previous attack on the Midgar Kingdom.
Su Te recovered his father's body before the Knights Order arrived, killed a passerby, and put a mask on him to replace his father.
Su Te was also the mole Fenrir sent to monitor Viscount Olba when the Midgar Magic Swordsman Academy was attacked.
"Sino Kageno! You dare to monopolize my Milia, I will make sure you die without a burial place!"
Su Te said coldly.
"But now I need to be calm. The Order's actions have been repeatedly thwarted recently! I can no longer rely on The Order's power!"
"Although I can't use The Order's power, I can still rely on my clever mind!"
Su Te had joined The Order when he was very young.
He even joined The Order earlier than his father.
He had been a bad seed since childhood.
He once used his identity as a child to deceive many kind people, and then cruelly murdered them.
Because of this, he gained the favor of a minor cadre of The Order.
After joining The Order, he used his intelligence to do many things for The Order.
Fenrir was also very satisfied with him.
Normally, not everyone was qualified to be a member of The Order; it was because of Su Te's existence that his father was able to join The Order.
Su Te was planning a scheme; he wanted to ruin Sino's reputation and make Milia completely disappointed in him.
