Thinking of this, Alice's face twisted with grief and anger.

[Chapter 10: Damn, I became Shadow’s substitute]

The young man's miserable cry was heard from the dungeon.

The knights' laughter sounded like demons from hell.

The scenes inside were so cruel that it was unbearable to watch.

The boy was only wearing a pair of underwear, and his whole body was covered with marks of being whipped. His face was swollen and pig-like, and it was hard to recognize his original appearance. The knights were pulling out the boy's nails with pliers and branding his body with red-hot iron blocks. Along with the boy's wailing, the dungeon was filled with the smell of barbecue.

"Tell me, are you the one who murdered Princess Alexia?"

"If you don't want to continue suffering, admit it quickly!"

The knight forced the boy to confess his guilt.

The boy screamed in agony.

She cried and shook her head in denial.

"You are really stubborn."

"Don't you know that this is useless? The sooner you admit it, the sooner you can be free."

The knight wanted to continue torturing him, but suddenly he heard his colleagues shouting outside.

"your Highness!"

This loud shout startled the knights who were interrogating.

They hurriedly tried to clean up the scene.

But the locked door was suddenly blown open by the red magic power. Standing at the door was Princess Alice who had just launched the slashing attack. The violent magic power surrounded the princess, and her long red hair looked like a burning flame.

Alice's face was full of anger, and she saw the situation in the dungeon clearly at a glance.

The boy was tortured to the point where he was barely recognizable as a human.

There were also those knights who looked nervous, as if they had done something wrong, and didn't dare to look her in the eye.

"Who allowed you to do this?!"

"No, Princess!"

"We, we are just interrogating the prisoner."

Alice glared at them like an angry lion.

"You don't need to explain yourself. Who told you to do this? Tell us everything you know!"

At the same time, Knight Mark went up and untied Sid.

"Are you OK?"

"Woooooooo..."

Sid was speechless.

Only then did Mark realize that all the boy's teeth had been pulled out.

Suddenly, this young knight, who was full of a sense of justice, felt extremely disgusted by the actions of his colleagues.

This is not assisting the investigation at all.

They had no intention of investigating at all, but wanted to force a confession out of him!

Alice also noticed the situation here.

Originally she thought that these knights were just deceived, but now that Sid's teeth have been pulled out, the nature of this matter is different, because this shows that these knights did not intend to give Sid a chance to speak from the beginning, but just wanted to force Sid to confess. This is not an idea that ordinary knights would have, only people from the cult would want to do this.

"Honglian, capture them all and investigate their relationship with the cult!"

"Yes!"

Veteran General Honglian drew his sword and rushed forward.

"Give up resistance!"

If it were an ordinary knight, he would not dare to resist even if he was frightened.

However, the expressions of these knights changed immediately after hearing the word "Cult" said by Alice. Facing Honglian's attack, they drew their swords to fight back, and the strength they displayed was simply not something that ordinary lower-level knights could possess.

Honglian didn't expect that these people had hidden their strength, and the veteran was actually at a disadvantage for a while.

At this time, the guarding knights outside the door also rushed in with swords in hand. They seemed to be coming for support, but they were not coming to protect the emperor at all. Instead, they wanted to attack Princess Alice from behind. In just a moment, Alice was surrounded and killed.

"your Highness!"

Mark was frightened by this scene. He never expected that all the knights here were members of the cult.

Alice was also shocked by these people's actions. These were the people she brought with her. Even if there might be members of the cult among them, how could there be so many of them? To what extent had the cult infiltrated the Knights? !

How many people are there in the cult within the Kingdom of Midgar?

Thinking of this, she felt terrified.

Damn the cult!

Red magic power erupted from Alice. That magic power was absolutely extraordinary among ordinary knights. The knights who were surrounding her were dispersed by the magic power before they could get close to her. A red sword energy hit them. Their swords and armors were shattered by this sword energy. All the knights were knocked to the ground. Only then did they realize who was the strongest in the kingdom.

Sid's eyes lit up while he was acting.

Oh ~

She is truly Princess Alice.

This strength is indeed a world apart from Alexia's. The gorgeous swordsmanship and huge magic power are things that only geniuses can display. They are completely different from Alexia, a mortal who can only swing a sword honestly.

Pity.

Because too much emphasis is placed on the power of the attack, the foundation is not solid enough.

Princess Alice's swordsmanship seems gorgeous, but in fact it has too many flaws.

Her Royal Highness the Princess's sword skills are entirely based on her natural talent.

Because her natural magic power is strong enough, that's why she is so strong.

But once she encounters an opponent who has practiced the basics to perfection, or whose magic power is stronger than hers.

Her Royal Highness the Princess will definitely be defeated.

Sid felt that he (Shadow) could kill her hundreds of times with one move.

Because of the magic in this world, most swordsmen have not yet fully developed their basic skills and techniques. He only noticed these details because of his experience in his previous life, so it cannot be said that Alice lacks practice.

Because people in this world don't have enough knowledge about this, they won't notice these things even if they keep exercising.

After Alice took action.

It will naturally not be a problem to take down these people.

Although Sid thinks Alice is weak.

But in the eyes of the cult members, Alice was simply too strong.

Afterwards, Alice summoned all the knights, had them all gathered in one place, and asked Honglian to be in charge of guarding and interrogating the members of the order. Now, she was extremely disappointed with the Knights Order and could only trust her own confidants.

She asked Mark to take Sid to see Bafensi because Sid's injuries looked too serious.

Although Shadow himself thought that these were just superficial injuries.

But in the eyes of ordinary people, he is about to die.

So Alice had to pay Bafansi to help.

Although Sid was not very willing in his heart, he had no choice but to refuse due to his status, and he even had to be grateful to Her Royal Highness the Princess.

Bafan Si also didn't expect to meet Shadow.

But the interesting thing is that Sid fails to recognize her in her current identity.

"Si, can you cure him?"

Alice asked nervously.

Because if Bafensi couldn't cure Sid, then she would have to ask her father for the Life Potion, which was a gift that Bafensi had once given to the royal family. After knowing the effect of the potion, King Midgar treasured the potion very much and even named it the Life Potion himself. Alice felt that the possibility of being able to apply for it was almost zero.

Upon hearing this, Bafansi just reached out silently and took out a bottle of red medicine.

Alice couldn't help but widen her eyes at this scene.

Wait, isn't this potion something very precious? !

"Let him drink it. It will take effect immediately."

Yafan Si was too lazy to use healing spells on Shadow, and using spells would expose her magic power.

She didn't want Shadow to know her identity yet.

"Wait, do we really need to use the Life Potion?"

Alice felt a little regretful at this time. Although she had thought about applying for the life potion before, in her subconscious mind, she didn't think it was necessary to use such a precious medicine on Sid.

How effective are health potions?

What are considered terminal illnesses, curses, and even severed limbs by the world can all be cured.

According to the test results.

Even patients possessed by demons could see some improvement under the effects of the life potion.

And when it was first tested, only one drop was used.

If you drink a whole bottle, maybe even the devil will possess you.

All can be rescued.

Only the king and Alice know this secret, which is why the king regards the potion of life as a treasure.

"..."

Bafansi blinked.

"It is very precious, but look at his nails and teeth, as well as the marks on his body. Ordinary treatments cannot help but leave sequelae, so it is better to use the life potion. Any questions?"

"Uh, no, no problem."

Alice heard Babensi's explanation and looked at the miserable Sid again.

I feel like that's indeed the case.

This also gave her a headache because the value of the life potion was too high.

When the time comes to pay the bill, if her father knew that she bought a bottle of life potion just to treat a teenager, she could already imagine what kind of expression her father would have.

At this time, Bafansi had already given Sid the potion.

Sid was also very curious about this thing and didn't resist at all.

He could see that this thing was good.

Besides, he wasn't the one paying, so he would definitely want to try what it tasted like.

Thank you so much Princess Alice.

There was a light fragrance when the potion went into his mouth. Sid felt that it was some kind of refreshing fruit juice, but it was not any kind of fruit he knew. The taste was still quite good. He could feel that there was a strong life energy in this potion. It could be said to be the crystallization of high-level magic. At this moment, even he felt that this thing was very precious.

He looked at Princess Alice with increasing emotion.

Compared to Alexia, her sister was simply a nice person.

I am willing to give him such a good thing.

However, it would be better if I could give it to him to take home and take it himself.

This is too wasteful.

The shadow of poverty began to calculate gains and losses again.

You know, he can heal all his injuries in just two or three moves.

There is absolutely no need to use life potions to treat it.

But he couldn't say it out loud, because if he did, he would not be able to get the life potion for free.

Besides, it’s already gone into my stomach.
