Crossover Anime: Starting from Jobless Reincarnation

As the voices spoke, the iron gate was opened, and then Alice felt the world turn upside down. The box slammed heavily to the ground with a loud thud, and Alice's head made intimate contact with the wooden box again, the pain being almost twice as intense as that of Roja's hand chop.

Finally, the wooden box was opened, and Alice was able to see the light of day again. She took a deep, greedy breath, and the thought of the unpleasant smell in the wooden box made her stomach churn.

Chapter 69 Getting Beaten

Alice finally got a good look at the man's face; he was a middle-aged man.

His face was rugged, giving off an extremely unapproachable vibe; his appearance was unkempt, but his eyes held a cold glint.

He looked at Alice with a sinister smile, stepped forward and ripped the gag out of her mouth, and said sternly, "You all better behave yourselves, or you'll regret it."

But as soon as the gag was removed from Alice's mouth, she shouted, "Who are you? You scum, why did you kidnap me? Do you know who I am? Untie me right now!"

Alice has a very loud voice; she has always been a very outspoken person and never speaks in a subservient manner.

Although Roya had tempered her somewhat, Alice clearly hadn't yet figured out her current situation.

No sooner had the burly man finished speaking than Alice reprimanded him loudly, which was tantamount to slapping the man hard across the face.

Feeling his dignity had been challenged, the burly man grabbed Alice by the hair and lifted her up.

He said fiercely, "Kid, are you ignoring what I said?"

After saying that, he slapped Alice hard across the face. He didn't hold back at all. It goes without saying how terrifying the strength of an adult is to a child.

Alice's originally delicate face came into intimate contact with the burly man's rough hand, causing her cheeks to instantly swell and turn red.

The excruciating pain was something Alice had never experienced before. Her cheeks were burning, but even so, Alice was still whispering something.

Subconsciously, the burly man assumed the other person would say something like begging for mercy.

The burly man sneered, "If you'd known this would happen, what were you doing before?"

He pulled Alice close to him and laughed, "Tell me, what are you going to do?"

Alice was still muttering to herself, and when the burly man heard what Alice said, his smiling expression instantly froze.

"I...I will kill you."

These were Alice's words, and it was these words that completely ignited the burly man's anger. Without saying anything more, he threw Alice to the ground and kicked her several times.

Of course, the burly man wasn't stupid; he chose body parts that would hurt the other person for a while but wouldn't cripple or kill them.

Alice curled up in a ball, instinctively protecting herself. She was now completely unable to speak, and her consciousness was teetering on the edge of unconsciousness.

Just as she was about to faint, a voice came from outside, a man's voice.

"That's enough, don't bother with a brat. If you really break her, the price of items will plummet."

The man's words clearly had some effect; the middle-aged strong man snorted coldly and ignored Alice lying on the ground.

Meanwhile, Rudius, who was standing nearby, opened his eyes and secretly looked in Alice's direction.

Rudius had actually been awake for a while. He had taken a solid hit when the box was lifted and bumped into it, so he had been awake since then.

Rudius believed that everything was going according to his plan, so he continued to pretend to be unconscious.

But before he could even react when he arrived in the basement, this scene unfolded before him.

This was somewhat beyond Rudius's expectations. The once arrogant and haughty Alice was now being beaten to the point of near death. After all, she was a direct descendant of the Grellat family. Even the most realistic kidnapping could not have been done to this extent.

The burly man curled his lip in boredom, shifting his gaze from Alice to Rudius, looking at Rudius with a slightly amused expression.

When Rudius saw the burly man, he was slightly taken aback, then forced himself to remain calm and gave the man a knowing look.

The burly man paused for a moment, scratching his head. He didn't understand why this kid was acting so familiar.

But the humiliation Alice had caused him earlier had infuriated him. He walked toward Rudius and bent down to look closely at the blond-haired man in front of him.

Only then was Rudius able to observe the other man's appearance closely. He was a middle-aged man nearing forty, with a long, rugged scar on his face, running from his left eye to his mouth, making his face exceptionally terrifying and ugly.

Observing a rugged man up close is undoubtedly a terrible experience.

He also emitted an indescribable stench, probably a mixture of sweat and alcohol. In any case, when the burly man leaned against Rudius, Rudius subconsciously frowned.

The burly man sneered, "Actually, you've been awake for a while now."

He slapped Rudius's cheek with his calloused hand. He didn't use much force, but the sensation made Rudius feel extremely uncomfortable.

In other words, it can be summarized as not being very harmful, but extremely insulting.

Ludius forced a smile and said obsequiously to the burly man, "What's going on? This isn't what we agreed on!"

The burly man paused, squinted at Rudius, and suddenly slapped Rudius hard across the face. Rudius staggered and fell to the ground with a thud.

Without the burly man needing to say anything more, Ludius's last shred of hope vanished completely; he understood.

The fake kidnapping turned into a real kidnapping.

But where exactly does the problem lie?

How did it develop into this?

What was supposed to be a performance has actually become real.

The burly man walked towards Rudius again, bending down and staring intently at him.

Ludius was jolted awake by the slap and now understood what was going on. Looking at the man in front of him, who was nearly 1.9 meters tall, he swallowed hard.

The people in front of him had definitely killed a lot of people. Rudius quickly thought about how to deal with them. Rudius once again showed that humble and ingratiating smile.

The burly man's initial intention to toy with Rudius vanished instantly. He silently stared at Rudius for a moment, then scoffed, "Coward." He turned and walked away towards the outside.

Opening the iron gate, the burly man stood at the door and said indifferently, "You guys had better behave yourselves, or I don't know if you'll be so lucky next time."

After saying that, he closed the iron gate, and the door made a clicking sound as it closed.

Rudius breathed a sigh of relief as he watched the other person's departing figure.

He was genuinely panicking at this point, but fortunately, Alice hadn't actually been kidnapped yet, despite the dire situation.

Although he couldn't defeat the enemy in direct combat, Rudius was still capable of escaping.

Rudius's mind stirred, and he imagined a wind blade in his mind. Magic began to flow into his fingertips, and the tightly binding ropes were cut off.

After breaking free of his restraints, he walked towards Alice. Looking at Alice, who was trembling from time to time, Rudius felt a little sorry for her.

Chapter 70 Escape

He moved closer to her and turned her body over. Alice's condition was indeed extremely bad. Her delicate doll-like face was now bright red, with traces of blood at the corners of her mouth, and her eyes were squinting.

With a sigh, he realized it wasn't the time to lecture Alice. He helped her to the wall and began casting intermediate-level healing magic.

"Divine power is a sweet sustenance; grant strength to those who have lost their strength to rise again, 'Healing'."

Rudeus placed his hands on Alice's chest, above her chest, without making direct contact. It was unusual for Rudeus, given his personality, not to take advantage of her. Rudeus began to gather magic power and quietly chanted the incantation for the spell.

While it's possible not to chant the incantation, Rudius himself isn't skilled in healing magic, and chanting the incantation helps guide the healing of the other person's injuries more effectively.

Alice's pale face instantly regained its color, and the swelling on her face began to subside. In just one minute, most of the injuries that had previously immobilized her had healed.

Alice felt a slight pain in her cheeks and lower abdomen, and she staggered as she got up.

Rudius quickly went to help her up, and whispered to Alice, "Um, how are you?"

"Nonsense, do I look like I'm in good shape?" Alice's voice was still loud, a little hoarse, but her words almost scared Rudius half to death. He covered Alice's mouth and said, "Can you keep your voice down? Do you know what's going on?"

Alice slapped Rudius's hand away and shouted angrily, "These damned scum, I'll have Kyrie Ilya kill them!"

Rudius smiled wryly. He was completely unable to keep up with the young lady's train of thought. Right now, the most important thing was to get out of here as soon as possible, okay?

In the distance, Roya, dressed in a long black robe with a black hood that concealed his face, exuded a dangerous aura.

Upon closer inspection, it becomes clear that both the jet-black robe and the black hood are made of magic, with countless black threads wrapped around the robe, giving Roya an air of nobility and mystery.

As for the function of the magic robe, it probably won't burst open during fights, just like Kirito's robe, it has immortality. In fact, its biggest use is probably just for showing off.

Meanwhile, Luo Ya was standing on a rooftop not far away, quietly watching the commotion below.

Under the bright moonlight, the peaceful night breeze rustled the hem of Roya's clothes.

His originally crimson-gold pupils shone even brighter, flowing like molten lava.

Luo Ya was born with an aura of authority from those in power. This aura came from his strength, and as his power grew and his understanding of swordsmanship became more thorough, this aura became more and more obvious, eventually forming something called "aura of authority".

Looking at the night sky, Roya murmured, "The Shadow Power Plan is underway."

The next moment, the figure disappeared into the hazy moonlight.

In the dungeon, Rudius had to use all his persuasion to calm Alice down.

Even so, the other party remained unchanged, which made Rudius grit his teeth in hatred.

It was precisely this unyielding attitude of the other party that made Rudius decide to change his mind.

However, Alice's earlier movements eventually alerted the other party to the anomaly. The burly man came over to check again, only to find that the door, which could be opened before, could not be pushed open this time.

He hurriedly called to his companion and shouted inside, "Hey, you bunch of brats, don't let me catch you. This time, I won't let you off so easily."

Rudius easily broke open the window next to him, jumped onto the windowsill, and looked down at Alice, saying, "If you agree to listen to me, I promise to take you home safely, but you must listen to me."
