What if the day angel could make time stand still?

 The shell flew from a very long distance during the period of standstill and hit Alice's bedroom window accurately.

 Because time stands still, leaving no trace is possible.

 The speculation is established.

 If this is the case, a more terrifying fact slowly emerges -

 ——The attacker could have used time to stop and walked directly to Alice's bedside and slit her throat with a knife.

 But he didn't do that. Instead, he used this powerful and extraordinary demonstration to issue a warning.

 This is a pure display of strength, but also a relatively subtle message delivery.

 ——No matter who this attacker is, he doesn't want to be hostile to the Academy.

 Therefore, he showed his strength without hesitation and left the word "Stop" to stop Alice from continuing the investigation.

 Since he knew that Alice would be able to see the word "Stop" intact, it can be seen that the attacker knew of Vivian's existence and knew that Vivian would not let Alice get hurt.

 He knew Alice very well, but Alice did not know him at all.

 The enemy is in the dark while I am in the light... Alice muttered to herself.

 But she didn't intend to stop there, she wanted to continue investigating.

 Since the enemy took action, it meant she was heading in the right direction.

 Bleeding occurs only when the painful spot is pricked.

 ""

 Alice seemed to calm down a bit, then raised her head and looked directly at Dawn:

 "Dawn, expand the search area to the entire Citadel, and vertically expand it to the stratosphere, looking for traces of five to ten-string magic."

 "You mean..." Dawn's pupils widened slightly, "The source of this attack could be anywhere in the Citadel?"

 "It might even come from outside the city," Alice nodded. "We can lend you the Pushet family's steamship. If you investigate further, I'm certain this is the key."

 Dawn was stunned for a moment, then nodded seriously:

 "Okay, senior sister, I'll listen to you."

 Alice's idea is simple: whenever string magic happens, it will inevitably leave traces.

 Regardless of whether the attacker actually used time suspension or some other trick to pull off the attack, since it happened, there's no reason why there shouldn't be a trace.

 Finding the source of the attack is just a matter of time.

 "Come on, I'll go out with you," Alice said, going to get her coat. "I have to go find Principal Merlin."

 "I'm afraid not."

 A familiar female voice came from the door. Alice turned around and found that it was Isabella.

 The Queen of Maple Leaf Palace entered the hall of Pushet's mansion surrounded by a group of priests and looked up at the beautiful crystal chandelier above the hall.

 "You must stay here," Isabella lowered her head and looked at Alice across from her. "This could be an angelic attack. We must confirm whether there is any remaining curse or contamination on you."

 Hearing this, Vivian shouted angrily:

 "You old woman, that attack didn't hurt Alice at all! You were just looking for an excuse to trap her."

 "This is an order issued by the Xinghai Church. I'm only here to ensure its authority," Isabella said calmly. "You said we're all guardians of the Citadel, so we don't want bad things to spread inside, right?"

 She looked directly at Alice, her golden eyes gleaming.

 ""

 Just as Vivian was about to have a fit, Alice stopped her.

 "Okay," she said simply, "Then investigate until you feel there's nothing wrong."

 She knew that since Isabella came in person, she must be involved in the attack.

 There is no need to argue too much. Once the enemy makes a move, getting angry is useless. Fighting back is useful.

 And Alice's counterattack has begun.

 Isabella smiled lightly and waved her hand, and the priests poured into the Pushit Mansion.

 "Miss Alice, please follow us. We will go first.

 "We'll do some basic checks." A priest bowed politely to Alice.

 Alice nodded, and before following the priest into the inner hall, she nodded to Dawn.

 Seeing this, Dawn patted his chest, promised that he would do it, and turned to leave.

 River Nerus - Singara

 Xingmo and Aurora were having a picnic on the roadside, beside a river covered with lush vegetation.

 On a small blanket embroidered with gold patterns bought from the market were placed small plates with exotic flavors, filled with various fresh fruits.

 Xingmo took out two lunch boxes from her backpack and handed one to Aurora:

 "Here, lunch."

 "Yeah, we finally got lunch boxes!" Aurora opened the lunch box and started showing off.

 Xing Mo was in no hurry to eat. She walked along the riverside road, looking towards the forest in the distance, and whispered:

 "Why haven't you come yet..."

 "Don't worry, we've received a reply. The Silver Blade Tribe is happy to be our helpers." Aurora said while eating.

 That’s right, the person the two are waiting for here is the light elf of the Silver Blade Tribe!

 Feeling slightly guilty, Xingmo asked Aurora to draft a letter, asking these kind elves living in the mountains to come to the city to help.

 And he helped rob a bank...

 "Are you sure you made it clear that we are going to rob a bank and not go on a picnic?" Xingmo couldn't help but ask Aurora again.

 "Oh, I've written it very clearly. As long as you trust me, I'll be done." Aurora waved her hand. "From the reply, it seems that Her Royal Highness is very excited!"

 Your Highness the Princess... Xingmo recalled the beautiful elf who was trapped in a nightmare.

 It seemed that the princess didn't even have the chance to say a few words to her before leaving.

 It's hard to imagine that such a beautiful elf would be someone who wants to rob a bank... No, she is not a human, she is an elf.

 "I don't know how Her Royal Highness the Princess will come..." Xing Mo muttered.

 "Anyway, judging by her reply, she's quite excited," Aurora nodded. "After all, she's never left the forest in her life and has had very little contact with human society."

 Wait a minute... having no contact with human society, does that mean you have no idea how serious "bank robbing" is?

 Xing Mo suddenly realized a serious problem: elves are mythical creatures, not humans!

 Wouldn’t the moral values ​​be different?

 Before she had time to think about it, suddenly, the sound of a camel cart came from the side.

 Turning around, I saw a camel with its head drooping, weakly pulling a cart, rattling towards us.

 On the back of the truck, a girl with long platinum hair was waving desperately:

 "Ah!!! Miss Saint!!! Angel-sama!!"

 She has a super loud voice, a super big voice, and a super big smile!

 Before Xingmo could react, the Elf Princess leaped down from the carriage, flew over at an extremely low angle, and pounced on Aurora with her arms open.

 "Archangel——"

 Just as she was about to hug Aurora, Aurora extended a finger and held her back.

 "Uh-huh~"

 The elf princess fell headfirst onto the blanket, but quickly stood up again, looking at Aurora with shining eyes:

 "Angel! Last time I didn't know you were an angel! I didn't even say hello to you! You look so fragrant and soft, can you give me a hug? Can you give me a kiss? What!! Can I hold you while I sleep?! You——"

 "Don't chant my name outside!" Aurora yelled, covering the princess' mouth.

 "Gurgle! Mmmmm~"

 The princess expressed her admiration for Aurora crazily, without any trace of noble temperament.

 Like a silly roe deer.

 Xing Mo opened his mouth wide, sweat dripping down his forehead as he looked at the princess who had no sense of reserve at all.

 This...are all mythical creatures like this?

 Just as she was shocked, she heard the sound of someone walking with a cane.

 Xingmo turned around and saw the tribal elder Youwen walking towards her slowly and tremblingly.

 The old man looked as if his legs and feet were not very agile, and the only remaining eye on his gentle face sparkled with wisdom.

 There are still normal elves...

 Before Xing Mo could continue with this thought, she saw Yu Wen walk up to Aurora, kneel down and kowtow:

 "Lord...your subjects have come in response to your call..."

 Xing Mo: ""

 It feels like the elf is beyond saving, why not just give up on treatment...

 "I've already told you, don't mention my identity," Aurora said lazily. "Outside, my identity is a prophet and a doctor's assistant. Do you understand?"

 "Little Assistant...?"

 The princess and Yu Wen looked at Xing Mo together. For a moment, there was a glint of fear and admiration in their eyes.

 Xing Mo sighed and waved his hand:

 "As you can see, our identities are doctors and assistants, so please don't do anything strange outside, such as kowtowing..."

 "Okay, I won't do that next time." Juventus rubbed his red forehead.

 "Let me introduce myself first. My name is Freya, and I'm the elven princess!" The girl with platinum hair raised her hand, showing off the slender silver bracelet on it. "I'm also a poet and an excellent archer!"

 Poet... Starlight

 I nodded and recalled the contents of the textbook.

 Unlike human "poets", the elf poet is a profession, which usually refers to resonating with natural strings through "chanting" to trigger the power of the strings.

 In addition, elves often carry weapons with magical powers, generally believed to be artifacts equivalent to holy objects that can trigger strings by their very presence.

 "I don't need to introduce myself, Elder Yuwen," Yuwen lowered his head. "I haven't left the forest in a long time. The air along the way is really...thin."

 "The air is thin?" Aurora tilted her head.

 "There's too little spiritual energy in the air," Yuwen shook his head. "The smell of pollution is flowing in the Nilus River. This is our mother river, but now it's becoming increasingly polluted."

 It refers to the pollution in the river... Xing Mo nodded and asked:

 "We're asking you to come out, but we're going to do something big, and there will be some danger. Have you considered this?"

 "Didn't you say you were going to rob a bank?" Freya was very curious.

 "Right," Xingmo nodded, "Do you have any idea about robbing a bank?"

 "Of course I have some idea. Just because I don't leave the forest doesn't mean I don't know anything," Freya said with a happy smile. "I secretly sent a messenger to bring back some books from outside. A bank is like a dragon's lair, full of treasures!"

 "I've never shot a dragon to death! This is a good time to set a precedent and hunt a dragon!"

 Freya raised her hands, looking very happy.

 But looking at the happy look of Her Royal Highness the Princess, Xing Mo felt more and more uneasy.

 Is this...really reliable?

Chapter 234: The Great Robbery! (Part 7) -4k- (Two Updates in One)

 The process of entering the city was not difficult. With Aurora's intervention of dream magic, the guards at the checkpoint immediately ignored the two beautiful outsiders.

 Well...beautiful is not just a compliment, it is an objective description.

 Whether it is Princess Freya or Elder Yuwen, both of them look extremely handsome and beautiful in the eyes of human aesthetics.
