Making Viscount Olba's strength incomparable to what it once was.
He was currently exuding a terrifying killing aura, making everyone present, except for Lord Shadow and Sino, feel the horror of his strength.
"Did I make the wrong bet? Should I have chosen The Order?" Klaus muttered to himself.
Viscount Olba's strength was somewhat beyond Klaus's imagination.
And the other party was only the Ninth Seat.
Alice was astonished at this moment to realize that The Order was real after all; all that talk about The Order not existing was just her deceiving herself.
She was unwilling to believe that there was actually an extremely powerful organization shrouding the entire world.
Only after truly witnessing the other party's strength could Alice experience their power.
Just that terrifying magic made her feel a deep sense of despair.
Klaus was the same; he deeply regretted his choice. If only he hadn't rejected The Order back then.
Now it was too late for everything. Alice was here, Alexia was here; their Midgar bloodline was about to end.
Alexia came to Klaus's side.
She showed no despair like Alice.
She knew very well that Milia's father only looked scary; he definitely wouldn't lay a hand on them.
After all, he was also Sino's subordinate.
As long as she was Sino's woman, the other party would absolutely not harm her.
She was quite confident in her own looks.
The sky had become covered with dark clouds at some unknown point.
Thunder suddenly appeared.
Illuminating the entire sky.
A lightning bolt struck in front of Viscount Olba.
A figure appeared where the thunderbolt fell.
He was dressed in black, with sharp eyes.
He looked at Viscount Olba with disdain.
"I am Lord Shadow, who lurks in the shadows and hunts shadows!"
"Lord Shadow! Are you going to meddle in even this?"
Alexia was a little surprised that it was Lord Shadow who appeared, not Sino.
She looked around, searching for her master Sino's figure.
"Why didn't he appear?"
Sino had no intention of appearing; it was Alexia's stage to begin with, and if he changed the script on the fly, he might seem a bit unkind to Alexia.
But there was no other way; if Lord Shadow wanted to intervene, he had to let him do it.
He could only invite the best actor, Viscount Olba.
Viscount Olba looked at Lord Shadow and found it impossible to associate him with Sid.
The two were worlds apart; their temperaments were completely different.
Temperament, eyes, physique, strength, appearance—all were a world of difference.
Although he knew this person was Sid, he couldn't see the slightest similarity between the two.
"How can one achieve such a contrast!"
"Hunting shadows is what I must do!" Lord Shadow replied coldly to Viscount Olba.
"Then let's see if you have the strength!"
Olba exuded terrifying magic, and in his hand appeared Fenrir's former weapon, bloodfang.
A bloodthirsty magic sword.
Its power far surpassed that of ordinary ancient relics.
It was a weapon that ordinary people could not master.
If this weapon were given to Princess Alice, she might be devoured by it.
The killing intent of this weapon would control Alice.
Olba swung his sword downwards.
With the swing of bloodfang, a red sword energy shot towards Lord Shadow.
Lord Shadow easily raised his hand and crushed the sword energy.
He instantly appeared before Viscount Olba.
And launched an attack.
Their magic swords began to swing rapidly.
So fast that those around them couldn't see anything, only countless flashes of blades and swords.
The clash between the two generated a powerful shockwave.
Forcing everyone to retreat a hundred meters away.
No one dared to approach further.
Meanwhile, Mark, taking advantage of Elisa's inattention, knocked her unconscious.
And took her away.
Klaus also wanted Princess Alice and Princess Alexia to leave.
Both of them objected, unwilling to go.
Alexia was fearless, while Alice simply didn't want to be a coward.
Klaus didn't know what to say to the two of them.
"Can't you see? If that fellow from The Order defeats Lord Shadow, we will all die, so hurry and run!"
"Father, please don't say anymore. I will not abandon you and flee," Alice said righteously.
"Father, since you're not planning to leave, I won't either!" Alexia replied.
Although she knew the secret of Viscount Olba before her, she definitely wouldn't reveal it.
There was no benefit in revealing it, and she might even be in danger if she did.
Lord Shadow and Viscount Olba fought fiercely.
Lord Shadow looked at Viscount Olba before him, feeling as if his adopted child had grown up.
Although Viscount Olba was old enough to be his father.
But Viscount Olba's strength had been enhanced by Lord Shadow, bit by bit.
The two exchanged blows back and forth.
Sino could tell that Lord Shadow was holding back.
Lord Shadow only used one-tenth of his magic.
He wasn't using his full power at all.
However Lord Shadow wanted to grandstand, he would let him grandstand.
He was too lazy to interfere.
Sino noticed that Princess Alexia seemed to be looking for him.
He directly flashed behind Alexia.
And hugged her from behind.
"Are you looking for me?"
Alexia was very surprised that Sino openly hugged her.
One should know, her father and older sister were both here.
Her older sister already knew about this. But her father didn't.
At this moment, she noticed that neither her older sister nor her father were looking behind her.
Alexia turned her head to look, completely unable to see Sino's figure.
But she could clearly feel Sino hugging her and touching her playfully.
"Master, I want to learn invisibility too!"
"You're too clumsy, you can't learn it!"
"No, I want to learn it~!" Alexia said coquettishly in a pampered tone.
"Alexia, what are you muttering to yourself about?"
Klaus asked.
"I~ ah~ I'm nothing..."
Alexia said with a slight blush.
"Master, you're bullying me again!"
Alexia said in a low voice.
The battle over there had also reached its conclusion.
Viscount Olba was kicked away by Lord Shadow.
The two fought with roughly equal magic, so it came down to skill.
Viscount Olba's combat skills ultimately fell short.
At this point, it was almost dawn.
The battle had started at three in the morning and had unknowingly lasted for over three hours.
A glimmer of sunlight had already appeared.
Lord Shadow couldn't accept himself, the representative of darkness, appearing in broad daylight.
So he simply disappeared.
Viscount Olba also fled with his people.
Alexia did not send anyone to pursue them, only ordered the Daybreak Knights to arrest all the members of the Chasing Stars Society.
As for The Order's people, they all fled with Viscount Olba.
"Reporting to Princess Alexia, someone saw Mark of the Crimson Knight Order seemingly escaping with Elisa, the leader of the Chasing Stars Society."
A member of the Daybreak Knights reported.
"Send people to investigate their whereabouts. We must capture the leader of the Chasing Stars Society who organized this operation."
Neither Alexia nor Christina intended to let Elisa go.
Elisa was merely a scapegoat; when it was time for her to die, she should die.
As for the words of a criminal like her, who would believe them?
Many of the Chasing Stars Society members claimed to be Alexia's people.
But who would believe that?
Alexia was a legitimate member of the royal family; how could she send these people to rebel? Wouldn't that be stabbing herself in the back?
Those rebels who deserved to be killed should be killed; those with some utility would be killed later.
Soon, newspapers reported on the Chasing Stars Society's rebellion.
The rebels defeated the Crimson Knight Order and the former Knights Order,
Princess Alexia led the Daybreak Knights to turn the tide.
