Chapter 114 - Chapter 114: Fallen into the Trap

As soon as Sino woke up and walked out of his bedroom, he saw Milia kneeling at the door.

"Why are you kneeling?"

"I failed in my task, please punish me, Master."

"Tell me exactly what happened?"

Milia recounted yesterday's events to Sino.

"This isn't your fault. You're not good at reconnaissance to begin with. You did nothing wrong. Get up!"

Sino reached out and stroked Milia's head.

Milia obediently stood up.

Then the two went to school as usual.

Just as they entered the school gate, a student blocked Sino's path.

"Classmate, you seem very rich! This is my ancestral Magic Sword. Can I sell it to you? My mother is seriously ill, and I desperately need money right now. Please, I beg you, buy this Magic Sword from me!"

Sino glanced at him, feeling nothing amiss with the other party. His strength was mediocre, so he shouldn't be a member of The Order. Also, there was no hostility.

And this Magic Sword was just a mass-produced Magic Sword issued by the academy.

It wasn't that powerful, nor was it the ancestral Magic Sword he claimed.

"How much do you want to sell it for?"

"Ten thousand Zeny will be enough!"

Milia was leaning against Sino, half-asleep, at this moment.

Having not slept all night yesterday, her spirits were also quite low.

The feeling of holding Sino's arm was too reassuring, causing her to fall asleep unknowingly.

Sino didn't disturb Milia; he simply reached into Milia's purse and took out a gold coin.

One gold coin was ten thousand Zeny.

Sino tossed the gold coin to the other party.

"I don't need the sword!"

However, the other party didn't catch it; he intentionally didn't catch it.

"Why do you humiliate me like this! Must you make me lick your shoes!" the other party shouted.

Sino sensed something was wrong at this moment. This guy clearly had no hostility towards him.

Yet, he still wanted to frame him.

The people around heard the sound and all looked over.

"You disgusting gigolo, are you humiliating me just because I have no money! Go to hell!"

The other party drew his sword and slashed at Sino.

"He's clearly looking for trouble, but he has no hostility towards me. That's strange? Has my perception weakened?"

"Not only does he have no hostility, but he also feels apologetic towards me. Does he want to apologize to me?"

Seeing him draw his sword, Sino also drew his sword to block.

However, the other party suddenly dropped his sword.

He lunged his heart towards the sword.

Sino's reaction was a little slow because he was thinking, but he hadn't transmitted any magic power to the Magic Sword.

A junk Magic Sword like this, without magic power, couldn't kill a Magic Swordsman at all.

The other party suddenly dispersed the magic power in his body, gathering it in his fist.

Without magic power, he became an ordinary person. For such a sword to kill an ordinary person, it would be too easy.

The sword pierced the other party's chest.

Sino quickly retracted his strength and pulled out the sword, causing only a superficial wound that was not fatal.

However, the other party used his magic-infused fist to heavily strike his own heart.

A magic-infused fist striking an ordinary person's heart would undoubtedly be fatal.

Under everyone's gaze, Sino did indeed stab the other party.

Then the other party died.

"So that's how it is! Su Te, oh Su Te! I really underestimated you!" Sino muttered to himself.

"Is this what it feels like to be outsmarted? Su Te, you're the first one to make me suffer a loss. I hope you don't die too quickly!" Sino thought internally.

Milia was still half-asleep, feeling a strange sense of security leaning against Sino.

But she suddenly smelled blood.

Milia suddenly woke up with a start.

She looked at the corpse in front of her.

"Lord Sino, I..."

Milia felt like she had missed something important. As a maid, she had failed in her duty.

"It's not your fault, don't blame yourself. Alexia is here. Have Alexia take you to rest! This is an order, no refusing!"

"Yes!"

Princess Alexia arrived with members of the Student Council.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, Alexia couldn't protect Sino anymore.

Alexia felt the breath of the person lying on the ground; he had already stopped breathing.

"Sino Kageno, please come with us!"

Alexia spoke.

Milia's gaze was somewhat dazed, and she still felt some self-reproach.

Everyone thought this had nothing to do with Milia.

Milia, distraught, asked Alexia for the key to her dorm room, stating that she needed to rest.

The other members of the Student Council expressed understanding towards Milia.

For one's boyfriend to suddenly erupt and kill someone, it was certainly difficult for a girlfriend to accept immediately.

It was perfectly normal to need rest.

Milia went into Alexia's dorm room to sleep.

As for Milia's dorm room, she hadn't been there in a long time; it was completely uninhabitable without cleaning!

Alexia brought Sino to the interrogation room, stating that she wanted to interrogate him personally, and told everyone else to leave.

Princess Alice also rushed over upon hearing the news.

She was biased towards the deceased student.

After all, Sino was very strong, and the deceased was weak.

Alice already had a judgment in her heart about who was right and who was wrong.

But she couldn't say anything, after all, Sino's strength was too great. If she didn't handle it well and allowed him to cause chaos regardless of the cost, everything would be over.

Alice was outside the interrogation room, but she didn't push the door open and go in.

"Master, what should I do?"

Alexia asked.

"Aren't you curious about what happened?"

"Other students just reported to me that you were conversing with the other party, who suddenly started shouting, then he drew his sword, and as a result, he died!"

"Most of the testimonies are like that!"

"But I don't believe their words. Whatever you say, that's what it is!"

Alexia trusted her instincts; Sino was definitely not someone who would casually kill people.

The people he killed were basically those who deserved to die.

"That guy was sent by Su Te, who wanted to use his death to frame me!"

"Su Te?" Alice thought from outside the door.

"I'll go and find Su Te with my people right away!" Alexia said.

"Wait, I'll go too!" Sino stood up.

Magic power surged through his body, and he transformed into Milia.

"Alice, please tell Milia that I'll be using her identity temporarily!"

Hearing Sino's words, Alice realized she had been discovered.

"Alright!"

Alice finished speaking and went to Alexia's bedroom... After Gamma learned of Milia's report that morning, she sent a telegram to Alpha.

Upon receiving the telegram, Alpha sent Delta back.

When it came to finding people, Delta was a professional.

(The telegram was also invented by Sino with Eta's assistance.)
