Rod returned to his room with the clothes he bought and handed them to Shirley.

"Thanks."

Shirley finished speaking in a low voice and breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.

It was a coat similar to the college uniform, and it was the same pink as her hair. After putting it on, Xiaojiabiyu's innocence came to her face.

"Rhode, you can go to Her Majesty Alice. I'll be fine if I go back alone."

Shirley remembered what happened and said quickly. She didn't want to keep Alice waiting too long because of herself. In her mind, Alice is the princess of this country and a great person.

The fear of power is very common in various countries, and Shirley will inevitably encounter this problem.

But it also shows that Shirley really cares about Rhodes.

Although her smile was as cute as ever, the flash of pain between her brows as she walked showed that nothing was wrong with her.

"I'll carry you back.

"but......"

"hurry up."

Rod's tone of rejection forced Shirley to lie on his back obediently and rest her head gently on his body.

Rod carried Shirley on his back and walked along the quiet path, with shady trees neatly arranged on both sides of the road.

The dense leaves they extend are intricately intertwined in mid-air, forming a natural summer refuge. The sunlight penetrates through the gaps in the branches and falls on the ground, forming fine light and shadow.

It's class time now, and there are basically no students around. Occasionally, only one or two teachers pass by.

Seeing the two people in close contact, the teacher originally wanted to scold this behavior that had a bad impact on the college, but when he saw the appearance of the hero and heroine, his mouth closed instantly.

One is a talented girl who is famous in the royal capital. In terms of knowledge, she puts the teachers to shame.

The other one was simply a student they couldn't afford to offend. From a strength perspective, he beat all of their teachers in various ways.

It can only be said that what Rhodes has done since he entered school has left a very deep impression on them. Whether it's skipping class or going outside the academy, they ignore it by default.

In any world, geniuses are given preferential treatment. Shirley lives in a single dormitory specially allocated by the college.

After Rhodes sent her back, he walked slowly towards Alice's place.

"You're here~..

Rhodes opened the door and saw Alice sitting at her desk with her head lowered. Beside her, stood a long black figure.

"Clea..."

Seeing Rhode's surprised expression, Claire glared at him angrily.

"Why, I can't be here anymore?"

"That's not true, I just haven't seen you for a few days." Rhodes found a place to sit down in a familiar manner.

"Kleia was assigned a task by the academy and just came back today." Alice said, looking at Rhodes with unvarnished appreciation.

Both Claire and Rhodes are the strongest people in the academy. Especially for Rhodes, Alice found that she couldn't see through his strength at all.

We can only estimate from the few words about the last incident involving Marquis Geno.

But having Rhodes around is undoubtedly reassuring. For example, it is said that Rhodes solved yesterday's kidnapping alone, and his sister also admires him.

Unfortunately, he is not a member of the Knights and has no interest in the Knights.

I thought very much.

"I wonder what you think of the recent rumors in the capital?" Alice retracted her thoughts and asked.

"Gossip?"

Rhodes shook his head: "I don't care about this."

"Rhode, I'm starting to worry about your interpersonal relationships." Claire looked straight at Rhodes with her beautiful black eyes.

Alice explained: "Well, isn't there an underground maze near the royal capital? There are rumors among the residents that there is some treasure inside, so the Knights plan to form two elite teams to explore it."

Alice paused and continued.

"..." One team is led by me, and the other team is led by the champion of the first-generation God of War Festival, the Elf Sword Master Beatrice. "

Rhodes heard Beatrice talk about this matter.

It was quite troublesome to hear it, but Rhodes didn't say no directly.

He was quite interested in the underground maze, and the information fed back to him by fate became vague for the first time. This alone was enough to prove that there was an extremely powerful being in that underground city.

Rhodes planned to see what the underground city maze was like.

"I came to you because Beatrice named you to be in her team. I met her and she said she wanted to repay you [do you know her (well)?" Alice asked doubtfully.

"We barely know each other," Rhodes said.

"It surprises me. I'm a little curious about what you helped her with. After all, what did the God of War say? It's a bit hard to talk about." Alice sighed.

"Not easy to talk to?"

The expressionless face in my memory revealed a hint of simplicity and exquisiteness. Rather than saying that she was not easy to talk to, it would be better to say that Beatrice's character was like that.

Rhodes had a great conversation with her, and it was also because of a series of Rhodes' behaviors that surprised her, and because of the news about his niece, Rhodes was of course very flattering.
