Episode 1 Alice, you're in trouble
Zero stared blankly at the fragments and his burned right hand, oblivious to the pain and screams. [xiashu]
Alice quickly grabbed Zero's hand and stroked the burn. Text starter/text starter
"Ahh However, this place has long been soundproofed by magic, and no one outside can hear it.
"It......'s impossible," Alice Nannan muttered to herself, and then looked at Zero in horror, "You only got burned by this kind of Cheng DΓΉ, what kind of monster are you!"
"I don't know, it's the first time I've been injured. "Zero is hiding part of the truth, part about the moon timepiece. [Monthly timepiece] A good-looking novel debuted [] Monthly timepiece 1
"Forget it, don't think about things you don't understand. Alice didn't intend to continue asking, "Since you are so persistent, I can't just let it go." β
Alice looked at Ai Xue, "You said that your parents have something to do with the second truth, if this is true, you can ask me directly, and I will tell you what I know." β
"They didn't have a direct connection, and we figured out that GuΓ² had access to this information to get the attention of the Equilibrium sect. Ai Xue explained.
"Are you sure you're not looking for death?" Alice's face turned solemn, "With such a dangerous thing, maybe you will be wiped out before you can say hello to them." β
"They must know something, no matter how dangerous it is, and I'm going to try it. Ai Xue's tone was serious, and she turned her head to let Alice see the resolute look in her eyes.
"Have you told anyone else about the Sect of Equilibrium?"
"Nope. β
"Then you are the one who pulls the whole snow wheal to accompany the funeral. In any case, they have the right to know. I can tell you about the Sect of Equilibrium, but you have to make sure to tell this qiΔ to your companions, can you do it?"
"I promise. β
"Well, on the surface, it's an organization whose mission is to maintain the balance of the world. But in fact, there is no such thing as equilibrium, it is completely artificial. Perhaps they themselves consider themselves to be the righteous side, watching a qiΔ from a corner of the continent. But I think they think of themselves as gods. Overlooking the ant-like humans, bugs that break their insect breeding tanks are not allowed to appear. It's a bunch of very nasty guys. Alice's tone was full of hatred, and her face was not very good, as if it reminded her of some unpleasant experience.
"Have you seen them?" said Ai Xue, a little surprised.
"Of course, but ......," Alice suddenly filled with fighting spirit, "I won't make the same mistake again! β
"Then do you have any impression of this?" Ai Xue took out the knife, which was an artifact known as the "Twin Commandments", a knife capable of eliminating fighting energy and magic.
"I haven't seen it, but I miss the power attached to it. Alice carefully took the knife and played with it for a while.
"This is my mother's relic, originally I thought it was just an ordinary fruit knife, but it saved me and my friends several times. β
Alice didn't respond, she held the handle and blade of the knife with both hands, and the colorless flame reappeared in Alice's hand, no doubt that she was using magic to verify something.
However, the result was much more than Zero and Ai Xue expected.
With a crisp sound, the iron knife broke in the middle. Alice breaks the knife in half like a popsicle.
"This ......" a wavering expression crawled across Ai Xue's cheeks. She got up from the side of the bed and took a few steps back, only to fall to the ground from the trembling of her legs. Suddenly, bean-sized tears rolled down Ai Xue's eyes. [Monthly timepiece] A good-looking novel debuted [] Monthly timepiece 1
The only relic left by the mother was destroyed.
Zero hurriedly rushed to pick up Ai Xue, who was sitting on the ground, "Why did you do this?" Zero angrily blamed Alice.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to. Alice knew she was in trouble, and she looked a little flustered, "I just wanted to see if this was the real thing." β
After a while, Ai Xue's feelings also began to steady, "What the hell is going on?"
"It's just a very ordinary fruit knife. Alice came to her conclusion.
"How could it be? It ...... clearly wouldn't believe such a conclusion.
"But it's tainted with a pretty strong balance force. Unlike weapons forged with the power of equilibrium, it is just a fragile fruit knife in its own right. When I upset the equilibrium with the power of the flames, I could break it with the brute force of my hands alone. β
Alice paused, "You said this is your mother's relic?"
"Well, she's been using this knife to cut fruits and vegetables. Ai Xue replied softly.
"Just by using it for a long time, such a powerful balance is injected into the device, and as far as I know, only Sannin can do it. β
"Three shinobi?"
"Heart, eyes, fists. They are the ones who have given up their names and have only kept the title that has been passed down from generation to generation, and they are the leaders of the Balanced Sect. β
"In other words, Ai Xue's mother could be the leader of the Equilibrium Sect?" Zero exclaimed in surprise.
"What do you think of her?" Alice asked.
"It's gentle, it's beautiful, and it looks weak. It's hard to imagine that such a mother is the leader of a mysterious organization. A vague figure appeared in Ai Xue's mind, and then shook her head. She is very resistant to such conjectures.
"I'll go with you to find it. Alice suddenly said, "It's good to make amends." β
"Really?" Ai Xue couldn't believe it.
"It's more real than pearls. Anyway, we don't have anything important, and I'm more concerned about the second truth, since there is no specific destination, just drop by, if there is anything you need help with, just tell you~"
Alice pulled open the quilt and got inside, "Don't think about anything today, go to sleep." There seems to be some festival tomorrow, so why don't we leave a qiΔ behind us and have a fun day!"
In less than 5 minutes, the snoring sounded.
"Tsk, the sleep is really bad. Looking at Alice like this, Zero and Ai Xue also abandoned their troubles and fell asleep one after another. Unbeknownst to them, Alice disappeared from her bed shortly after.

"In the middle of the night, disturbing dreams. Say, what do you want me to do?"
"I'm sorry, Kia. Look at this. Alice, dressed in pajamas, took out the knife that was broken in two from her back, "Is it repaired?"
"Aren't you embarrassing me, the residue of the power of equilibrium, even if it is me, it is impossible to restore it. β
"Is that just the appearance?"
"There are knives like this in the store, and if it weren't for the power above, it would be nice to buy another one. Jessica yawned, "You broke it?"
"Well, please, make sure you get an identical handful before sunset tomorrow night, Master Alchemist. β
"You've said that, what else can I do? Are you alright?"
"Hmm. β
"Then I'll go back to bed, good night. With that, Jessica walked towards the small hotel behind her.
Alice sighed, and in the next moment, she was back in the room.
