Alexia Midgar/Chronology

Background
Prior to the events of the series, Alexia grew up with her older sister Iris Midgar and spent entire afternoons training together though she would always lose to her. As a result, Alexia devoted herself to becoming stronger in the hopes of surpassing her. With the passage of the following years, their relationship became very distant and strained due to her job as the first princess and leader of the Royal Knights.

At one point, Alexia was later arranged to marry a prodigy and Academy swordsmanship instructor named Zenon Griffey. Despite having a highly prestigious reputation, Alexia was wary of her betrothed due to his perfect image and that he was seemingly flawless. Since then, Alexia tries to keep dodging every single one of his invitations.

The Kidnapping of Alexia Midgar
Even after enrolling in the Midgar Royal Spellsword Academy, Alexia continues to feel disturbed as she find herself receiving numerous unwanted advances from Zenon, her arranged betrothed that he made to her. This prompted her suspicion on him and decided to find a way to get rid of him. Alexia decided it was best to form a relationship with a person of a lower status to anger him, so she rejected a fellow high noble and accept Cid Kagenō as her boyfriend when he "confessed" to her.

As a result, all the students at the Academy are surprised by the relationship the next day when Alexia later joins Cid at lunch in the canteen with two of his friends, which surprises other students as that's the lower nobility section. Alexia gets served lots of food and comments she can't eat it all then Cid happily starts eating her food. Alexia heard that Cid is studying Royal Bushin fencing and wants to practice together. Although Cid states he is in the lowest sections, but Alexia explains she put a good word for him and she got him in Section One.

Shortly after Cid joins the Section One where Zenon teaches the class thanks to her recommendation, Alexia uses the relationship she has built as an opportunity to kick Zenon out while Alexia and Cid are training together. After the practice, Alexia states to Cid that he has good fencing style, but hates it as it feels she is looking at herself. Later, Alexia tells Zenon that she is Cid's girlfriend now, who tells her that won't change the fact that she is betrothed to him, even if it's still a public secret but Zenon saw through her fake relationship.

It was then that Cid eventually realizes what is going on as when he found out that Alexia revealed her knowledge of the bet that his friends arranged after talking to them. She casually insults Cid and manages to bribe him with gold coins to get him to comply. Following their agreement, both of them continuing their fake courtship like a real couple which lasted for 2 weeks. Despite being abusive to vent her frustrations initially, Alexia started to open up to Cid by confiding him of her problem and becoming the second person to ever compliment her swordsmanship.

While they're alone, Alexia tells Cid that he has the fencing basics, but nothing more than that, yet she can't take her eyes of him. He wonders what with her today as her fencing was unusually aggressive and sloppy. Alexia reveals she always wanted to be as good as her sister. She didn't have what her sister had and decided to become stronger by herself. They ended up calling Alexia "The Fencing Ordinaire". It's unfortunate that Cid's fencing is ordinary like hers, however, Cid doesn't find it unfortunate and states he likes her fencing. Alexia reveals that her sister told her the same thing after she suffered humiliating defeat at the Bushin Festival. But her sister couldn't understand how pathetic Alexia was feeling. Cid explains that he isn't a great person and wouldn't care if someone kills a million people, but there are things that people find worthless, but to him they are the most precious things in life, which is why he likes her fencing style. Alexia draws her sword and asks him what he means by that. Cid states he gets pissed off when people diss the things he likes. After finishing their conversation, Alexia leaves Cid saying that she wants to go home alone.

However, Alexia is later kidnapped by Zenon's men while on the way to her dormitory and is sent to a hidden facility to holding her captive. Alexia wakes up chained in a cell with Magic Sealing Chains on all her limbs. She sees a humanoid monster in the next cell. A man then shows up, excited to get "royal blood". Alexia wonders why her blood and the man states its demon blood and he will resurrect the demon by taking her blood to be harvested for almost a week. With a bad feeling because his blood was continuously taken until he was forced to be fed by the doctor, Alexia hear a commotion from above until The doctor rushes to Alexia, stating that "they" are coming. Alexia tries to tell him that the Knight Order don't kill without a reason, but the man isn't afraid of the knights. He notes that he made a prototype and it should work even on a failed result as the one next to Alexia's room. As he injects the disfigured creature, it becomes much larger and stronger and kills the man. To Alexia's surprise, the monster then cuts her chains and frees her.

After managed to escape with the help of the monster, Alexia looks for an exit until she suddenly encounters Zenon Griffey, who revealed his true colors to her. When Zenon had explained that this hidden facility was his and he was the one who funded the doctor for his research, Alexia, who was irritated by knowing that he was the one who kidnapped her, is happy because she always thought about Zenon which she knew that Zenon is already crazy and glad that her guess was right about Zenon. Even Alexia tell Zenon that the Knight Order will be here and Zenon eventually will obviously put to death which makes his title along with his reputation will be ruined.

But nonetheless, Zenon still doesn't care about her point and tells Alexia to come with him in escaping through a secret route as he explains that with her blood and the research, he will be guaranteed the Twelfth Seat in the Knights of Rounds and will no longer be a meaningless Swordsmanship Instructor. Just as Alexia thinks that the Rounds must be a group for lunatics, Zenon define her mark that the "Knights of Rounds" are a gathering of twelve most powerful knights under the embodiment within the Cult who have wealth and fame far beyond his current status. Zenon also says that he doesn't have any achievements even though his strength is acknowledged and with the research of her blood the task can be completed, even states that he wants her older sister as a more suitable reward but is satisfied with Alexia as his preferred choice.

Enraged by hearing his statement, Alexia attacks him but Zenon easily counters her sword swings and thinks that her abilities are mediocre. At that time Alexia increases her power energy to flow into her sword while using her sister's swordsmanship technique, which makes Zenon get a small wound from the attack. Surprised that Alexia didn't expect to be able to hide such power, Zenon has the opportunity to give her a taste of his true power which has never been shown to anyone. It was then that Zenon was showing the true swordsman skill who will become the Rounds' next generation as he easily able to overpowered her which Alexia felt that she was no match for Zenon.

Feeling helpless, Alexia, who was about to be taken by Zenon with the intention of bringing her to a safe place, is stopped when a mysterious figure who calls himself Shadow suddenly appears. As Shadow introduces himself, Zenon recognizes him as the one that has been going after the Cult, but notes he is a coward as he has been targeting only bases without the Cult's core members. Hearing from the conversation, Alexia felt that the two of them had an animosity between them. When Zenon is about to attack Shadow for his life to be his achievement for the Rounds by declaring himself to be the next person to fill the Rounds' 12th seat, Shadow moves behind him as he placing himself between Zenon and Alexia and mocks the former, asking him where are the core member he spoke of.

Then, Alexia watches the two combatants fight into become a one-sided when Shadow easily overpowers Zenon as he effortlessly outmaneuvered his attacks. By the time Shadow scoffs at his so-called superior swordsmanship, Zenon emotionally engage him with fierce attack which completely driving him into a rage. Seeing their fight, Alexia is amazed by Shadow and sees that at its core, his swordplay is ordinary. Its like her ideal swordplay she dreamed when she was young, however she could never became stronger or equally strong to her sister. After Shadow overwhelms Zenon by delivering a slash to him, a badly injured Zenon asks angrily why he was hiding his identity when he was that strong all along. However, Shadow states that they are Shadow Garden who lurk in the darkness to hunt in the shadows, which is the sole purpose of their existence.

Learning from their conversation, Alexia doesn't understand the conflict between them and feels that something is going on behind the scenes that Alexia doesn't know about. Annoyed, Zenon who is already consumed by rage and frustration after receive beats down numerous times decide to empowered himself takes out a small jarful of red pills and takes the pills until Zenon transforms into become a "Third Awakening". Zenon, who has been transformed and having far more destructive power than before which makes Alexia see his condition which she considers disgusting, attempted to attacks Shadow.

Even though he's strengthened, Zenon is still no match for Shadow, who belittled and overwhelmed him after taking multiple hits. Shadow rebuked that there's no road to almightiness from borrowed power until he activated his magical power, shocking Zenon and Alexia on how powerful it was. Shadow then tells him to witness his al-mightiness as he uses his almighty power when using "I Am Atomic" to annihilate him alongside his hideout, making a huge explosion and leaving a large crater in the middle of the city. After witnessing Shadow's magic attack, Alexia finds herself unharmed in the middle of the crater. When Alexia picks a sword and starts practicing her fencing, her sister Iris Midgar arrived from her place who she shared a hug with as she feeling concerned about her well-being. She also became determined to learn more about Shadow as she came to realize her swordsmanship after witnessing him in action.

Afterwards, Alexia met Cid and remarked her freedom from her betrothal while showing she has genuinely fallen for Cid by thanking him for complimenting her swordsmanship. Believing that his job was done, he tried to leave but Alexia asked Cid to continue their relationship a little longer. Cid outright refused prompting her to become enraged and nearly killing him in response.

Midgar Academy Terrorist Attack
Curious about Shadow Garden and the Cult of Diablos, Alexia decided to take a more active role in the internal affairs of her kingdom by joining Iris' investigation. Days later after her kidnapping case has been solved, Both Princesses along with her two knight from the Crimson Order, Glen and Marco Granger went to the Midgar Academy to meet Sherry Barnett and presented an artifact they found from Zenon's hideout. They were unable to decipher it and asked for Sherry, who is the most brilliant mind in the kingdom, if she can decipher it. The Academy Assistant Principal Lutheran Barnett encouraged her to do the job by stating its a rare opportunity to which she accept. Alexia asked for her sister to help in the investigation regarding the recent massacre on citizens and Shadow which she accepts.

During a night patrol, she encountered three imposters who are disguising themselves as members of Shadow Garden. She was nearly killed when Shadow saved her. Alexia warned Shadow to not become an enemy of her kingdom, which is met with cold indifference. After the encounter, Alexia was put on lockdown by her sister. During her recovery, Alexia tells Iris that the killer was impersonating Shadow Garden. Alexia adds that Shadow is fighting the Cult, and Iris hopes that they will learn something more when the artifact gets deciphered. Alexia then asks her who she thinks is the real enemy, Shadow Garden or the Cult. Iris states its both and that she won't allow anyone to wreck havoc in the kingdom.

The next day, Alexia was approached by Sherry as she wanted to confirm her relationship with Cid Kagenō. She clarified to the researcher that they pretended to be a couple for personal reasons and that they never dated in the first place. Happy that she's not interfering in a relationship, Sherry was ecstatic to work even harder to decipher the artifact and left shortly before Alexia seethed into taking her anger out on her tea cup.

In the anime, Alexia returned to Academy to see the gates are closed and that the school guards were already dead. Knowing something was wrong at the Academy, Alexia rushed to tell Iris about what happened and had her sister deploy the Knight Order. During the siege after the terrorist group calling themselves Shadow Garden had taken over the Academy and hostage all the students in the auditorium hall, Alexia just watching Iris debate to the person in charge who was trying to force a way into the Academy to save the students and eliminate the terrorist group.

Sanctuary Infiltration
During the summer vacation which started early because the Academy was half-destroyed after the terrorist attack passed, Alexia was ordered by her father Klaus Midgar to go to Lindwurm in conducting an investigation on the Archbishop Drake regarding dark rumors of corruption and missing orphans when Alexia had been invited as a special guest in the "Goddess' Trial" event which was about to begin soon.

Before leaving for the Sacred Land, Alexia made preparations by visiting Mitsugoshi Company branch store in the capital with Iris for her departure. At that time, the princesses meet the head of the Mitsugoshi Company and introduce herself as Luna. After explaining why they are there, Alexia requests to see some other more common items for everyday use, which won't be exactly for her, but it won't be a gift to someone either. Luna then realizes what she means and shows her some panties and thongs. As they barely cover anything and the men like them, Iris is against it, but Alexia likes them and is confident she will look good in them. She ends up trying them and manages to convince Iris to let her buy them.

Peeved by the time to get there, Alexia went to soak her self at a hot spring. While there, she saw Cid arrive and was surprised by his nudity though he didn't ogle her. They casually talked about their arrival and she apologized for the spiteful response to his rejection. Alexia told him of the event and that she will be attending as special guests. Cid thought she would participate as she clarified that she is unable to due to important matters and offered him into the Crimson Order for her reiteration of her withdrawal. Despite her insistence, Cid bluntly refused as the conversation ended when he left while retorting her fixation on his "Excalibur".

Hearing the news of Drake's death, Alexia went to the cathedral and had an audit with Acting Archbishop Jack Nelson and explained that she was there to investigate his death. Nelson dismissed the jurisdiction she was given as he had told her off that the Church will be handling the investigation and that she will need to be reapproved to conduct an investigation on the issue as he had already send the letter to the king Klaus Midgar while lastly telling her to enjoy the "Goddess's Trial" event. Seeing through that they were destroying evidence and obstructing an thorough investigation, Alexia seethed that she was unable to do anything regarding the deceased Archbishop.

At the trial, Alexia sat in the VIP seat along with Rose Oriana who sat next to her as she silently angrily looked at Nelson who was making a speech without sorrow with a spiteful look. However, what annoyed Alexia the most was the person next to her, Natsume Kafka because she felt she was the type of person who hid her personality just like her. Later at night when Alexia heard Cid's name was called up for the challenge as to her shock, Alexia alongside the three were aghast to see that what appears is not Cid, but Shadow who appeared instead and summons the ancient warrior Aurora, the Witch of Calamity who was known as the strongest witch long ago and challenges her.

Nor do the princesses find out who the ancient warrior is until Natsume tells them about Aurora in elaborate detail much to Alexia's surprise on the writer's knowledge, even Alexia's peeve on the Natsume's approach when she tried to ask Nelson who was withholding information from the princesses to tell more about Aurora as Natsume teasing Nelson to divulge information by using her cleavage, much to Alexia's frustration and felling disgusted at the Acting Archbishop's obscenity.

Although Nelson and many of the spectators believed that the Witch would win, Alexia disagreed by stating that if Aurora came from his summons, then Shadow's powers must have reached her level much to Natsume's delight when she was able to analyze the closing distance and positions of the two combatants. At that time, Alexia witnessed the duel match between Shadow against Aurora in anticipation which ultimately Shadow won the battle and leave the arena.

Upon Shadow's victory, chaos ensued as the Paladin Knights attempt to capture him until the magic door suddenly appear in the middle of arena. Later, Alexia and Rose saw Shadow Garden arrived to enter the Sanctuary while taking Nelson with them. When Alexia tried reacting to the situation, Epsilon took Natsume as "hostage" to ensure they don't impede. Although Alexia decide to leave Natsume, much to Rose's dismay. Despite the Archbishop summoning Venom to finish her the Elven off, Epsilon executed him on spot and forced him to follow them. After the mysterious organization entered the door, Alexia refused to standby and followed suit while Rose was forced to follow her out of concern and joined her inside.

Inside, Alexia and Rose went to the gateway alongside members of Alpha's squad with the captured Nelson to find themselves in the Sanctuary. The two would then come to learn the connection with the recent events with the two organizations and the truth about the Three Heroes, Demon Possession, as well as the Cult of Diablos's origins and true objective until Alpha revealing Nelson's true affiliation as the 11th Seat of the "Knights of Rounds", to which he confirms it by revealing himself as Nelson the Avaricious and tends to separating them into groups.

Alexia saw the fight between Alpha and Delta against Nelson and his deluge of copies in the Sanctuary defense system as she was stunned to see Delta brutality by fighting like a berserker with no technique. When the defense system breaks as Nelson is surprised that over hundred of his copies have been defeated without even breaking a sweat. Alpha states that even if he was able to create a hundred copies, they all still have one brain and he couldn't control them all that well. Nelson then sees a statue of Olivier and calls for Olivier to come. Olivier comes out, but at the same time Epsilon's team joins Alpha and states they are done with the investigation and can leave. Once attained all the intel they sought, Shadow Garden opened an exit and allowed Alexia to leave the Sanctuary along with Rose and Natsume.

By the time the there of them were returning outside, they saw Shadow's magic annihilate the Sanctuary and flood Lindwurm. Concluding they were ignorant to the true battle even have learned the connection with the recent events with the two organizations, Alexia alongside Rose and Natsume made an alliance in hopes of protecting what's most dear to them (Cid), which they swore friendship by gathering and sharing information to learn what they could.

Bushin Festival Tournament
Alexia heard the news about Rose going into hiding after stabbing her fiancé Perv Asshat and tried to investigate the incident with Natsume Kafka when she gave her information she didn't had access to. The two thought that if Rose was caught, she would be in serious trouble but confident that she would not receive the death penalty due to her royal status. Alexia wanted to confirm Rose's predicament by finding her before the Oriana Kingdom does, in hopes of getting her side of the story much to Natsume's protest. Despite being irritated by her words, Alexia understood her reasonable advice and decided to consult her older sister. Natsume later gathered more information about Rose and the Chancellor as she heard unsavory rumors about him. In the anime after Alexia left, she was given more info about Perv by Beta without her knowing. This was done to keep her busy and avoid get into trouble.

While investigating, Natsume provided Rose's whereabouts to Alexia and went to Midgar's underground tunnel systems to track her. Natsume then shared information to Alexia about the Chancellor to confirm their suspicions of him by recalling the incident that Rose instigated when he was attacked by her without any injury. They believed he was possibly connected with the Cult of Diablos after recalling the incident. Natsume noted that it will be difficult to provide evidence of his involvement with the Cult as the situation is a matter of national and religious prominence which meant that normal evidence will not suffice. Alexia added that her father told her that they needed something to convince the masses and neighboring countries if they wanted to link the Cult's relationship with the Holy Church of Divine Teachings and thought that some of their top brass were involved with the Cult. Even Natsume stated that if they continued to deny the Church, they would be considered as heretics.

Alexia was irritated by her father's inaction due to his long-standing policy of not showing any antagonism with the Church and told Natsume that Iris told her that King Raphael Oriana didn't seem to be affected by Rose's actions which caused suspicion when Iris had said that the King seemed to have been somewhat hollow. Alexia intended to meet him and she slightly smelled the sweet scent from the King's body. Hearing the King's irregularity, Natsume noticed and told Alexia they are too late. Alexia was also sure that the Cult is definitely make their move and if they continue to do nothing as her father suggests, the Cult will end up causing a lot of trouble for the kingdom.

During their search, the two suddenly felt a burst of magic and ran towards it until they find Rose. Upon finding her, the two witnessed her bloodied with dozens of assailants corpses. Alexia demanded Rose what happen and her side of the incident as she tried to beat her into answering. This backfired as Rose incapacitated her with ease and leaves Alexia to Natsume and then left them both behind to confront her father and fiancé.

In the anime, Alexia went to meet Natsume but she had moved the other day and said she would go overseas to look for information. However, Alexia sees a folder that contains documents on all the information she needs, though Alexia is annoyed that she won't feel sorry for herself anymore. Later, Alexia was practicing her sword play when Shadow was about to release his "I Am Atomic", but ignored it to continue her practice.

Great Trading Company Conflict
Sometime after the Bushin festival and Red Moon incident, Alexia came to check up on a pondering Cid and the two sparred. The two noticed improvement in Alexia's swordsmanship but she dwelled in her defeat against Rose and sought to continue improving. The two parted ways as Cid started his collaboration with Yukime as "John Smith".

The Academy Disappearances
After the Academy's Winter break, Alexia investigated the disappearance of Claire to find Cid's collar. There she discovered ancient texts on the collar and questioned Cid about it. Later in the night in the aftermath of Delta and Zeta's fight, Alexia found Shadow and misunderstood the situation as she prepared to apprehend him before he knocked the knights unconscious and fled the scene.

Sometime after Claire's reappearance, Alexia talked to Claire much to her protest for her fake relationship with her brother. The two discussed that the Cult of Diablos had infiltrated the Academy and Knights with Diablos' right arm being revealed to be sealed within the Academy. The two formed an uneasy alliance to further investigate into the matter with their first hint being a book from the Forbidden Library. Alexia along with Claire then went to meet Claire's friend, Nina because she heard a story that she helped Cid to get forbidden books from the library.

At the Library, they were able to translate the book before being ambushed by the head librarian. In the ambush, the head librarian revealed himself as a agent for the Cult. Alexia started to feel strange and became incapacitated when the head librarian told them the stories of Fenrir and confirmed his existence after she concluded that Fenrir is also a Cult member. Before he went to finish Alexia and Claire off after using drug scents, Shadow then appeared to defeat the head librarian. In his last moments, the dying librarian revealed that he was a Bushin Festival champion and Knight who sought justice until he found the evidence regarding the corruption of the Holy Church without knowing the Cult's existence and investigated. The investigation went horribly wrong as his subordinates were massacred and his arms were cut off by Fenrir while finding out that his wife became a hostage. In exchange for his wife's safety, he forewent his identity to join the Cult and told Alexia that he was powerless to rebel while warning the princess that she'll walk the same path as him.

After Alexia stated her resolve to protect her kingdom as a princess, the Head Librarian revealed the Cult's true objective is to gain more power as he confirmed the existence of Three Heroes and Demon Possession as well as that Diablos Cells are only suitable for woman through using the same red pills that Zenon used. The Head Librarian never took them believing it's a shame for a swordsman, but stated the potential of them that if the Cult can bring the Demon Diablos back to life and successfully develop the perfect drugs without any side effects, the Cult of Diablos will have extraordinary power that even surpass the heroes.

The Head Librarian also revealed that the quantity for the Tears of Diablos have been dwindling and that he doesn't know what cause of it. Because the eternal life will disappear from the dwindling numbers, even the Cult's leadership wouldn't tolerate it as they wanted to revive the demon so they can harvest more Tears. With the perfect eternal life in mind, their leaders could rule over the world and run it with their hands from the shadows. However, if those Tears disappear, they will lose their eternal life ambition to rule over the world by extension.

The Head Librarian stated that it was no coincidence that Shadow Garden appeared in this era to end the Cult's long reign and warned Alexia to be careful that the organization are the strongest people in the world. In his dying breath, he questioned if they even really are on the side of justice to protect the peace of the world or they wanted to take everything from the eternal life and the world and from the Cult after the their fall. As the Head Librarian breathed with pain, he entrusted the kingdom's future to Alexia before passing.

Alexia collected the testimony and book as evidence and tried to use them to convince her sister of their involvement. To her dismay, Iris became a puppet for the cult as she was being manipulated by Hubb into believing that the cult doesn't exist and it was a fabrication done by Shadow Garden. Hubb provided fabricated evidence of an insider's document with Alexia refuting them as she tried to reach out her sister. However, her plea was rebuked by her sister as she threaten her with no mercy if she were to obstruct her in the matter before leaving.

Trapped that the Knights and her sister couldn't be trusted, Alexia decides to find concrete evidence herself so that everyone can believe her until in the middle of her steps Alexia ran into Claire and continued their investigation before noticing white hazes were suddenly enveloping the Academy. The two hurried to the Academy to the auditorium to see ghosts attack the students before realizing they're both strained with an magic collar that'll denote when their magic reaches 0. After fending off the ghostly horde, the two ran into Nina and Isaac for a briefing of the situation. Isaac accused Shadow Garden of orchestrating the event when Claire grieved on how things escalated quickly to which Alexia retorted Isaac's accusation that there is little to no evidence to accuse the organization of their involvement.

Anxious for a way out, an unassuming student named Suzuki suggested an idea that the students low on magic should stay in the auditorium as defense while the rest investigate. A relative of his named Christina tried interrupting him before he could finish out of fear of saving face to which in response, Alexia stopped her and allowed him to finish. He finished his suggestion that the magic being absorbed is traceable and that the investigation will have to cut through the ghost surroundings. Isaac protested that he's an unremarkable and inferior student who should not be trustworthy. Suzuki sneered at him before the rest of the group agreed to his plan except Christina. It did not took long to convince her otherwise as Suzuki was willing to be left behind if he were to the group down. On their way around campus, the group ran into some of the students who fled the auditorium. One of them was Eliza. The princess noticed an abnormal amount of magic on her collar but was too exhausted to question her upon being ambushed.

During the ambush, one of the students was fighting a losing battle when Suzuki asked Eliza whether she was going to fight or not. Eliza's entourage tried to sneer him away from further questioning as he lamented that the student in question was going to die with her magic running to 0. Suzuki took action by dissipating the ghost and save the student. He explained that magic can be transferred to the collars and by extension, it can stall its denotation. Alexia was impressed by his deduction as he went onto accuse Eliza of extorting other students magic. Eliza admitted to the crime as she thought to have leverage over the party due to her high noble status until Suzuki restrained her. He clarified to everyone including Eliza of the situation she's in and that no one will testify if he were to kill her because by the time it'll be discovered, no one would live to testify and not even her status could save her. In the end, Eliza was forced to share her ill earned magic to those running low and return to the auditorium with Alexia handing out her punishment later.

Alexia and the group traced the collar source and noticed that ghost encounters have become sparse. She asked Christina who Suzuki was to which even she was unsure and Isaac was suspicious of him. They traced the collars to a church and investigated for clues to find a dungeon. However by the time they realize it was a trap, the group fell unconscious one by one with Alexia finding out that Isaac was the insider for the Cult before collapsing.

Upon reawakening, Alexia and Claire found themselves restrained and witnessed what has happen to the missing students. The students in question were the ones the Crimson Order were investigating and the two realized it was too late for them as too much of their blood and magic were harvested to revive Diablo. They decided to escape to avoid their fate when Fenrir revealed himself. The Round Knight was confident that he'll get away with the incident when Claire heckled him but the princess retorted that Shadow Garden will punish him. Aurora decided to intervene and free the two when the Round Knight proceeded to extract blood from Claire's neck. Freed from their confines, the two confronted the martial maniac but were overwhelmed until Suzuki entered the fray.

Alexia was astonished to see Suzuki keeping up with Fenrir's Blood Fang with a fountain pen but was horrified when the unassuming student revealed himself to be Shadow. As Shadow proceeded to leave the scene after his victory against the Round Knight, Alexia called out to him to know what he's fighting for to which he reiterated to her not to get involved. Dissatisfied with his answer, she pleaded to him to ask what is he going to do with the world. Before realizing, Shadow laughed as he cut off the party's collar and vanished from the scene without a trace.

Alexia came call Cid to the schoolyard the following day to inform him that he is involved in his sister's condition and that the Knights want to hear about it. Despite having an alibi, Alexia clarified that the Knights insistence is a formality and they don't expect anything out of him. She expressed envy towards him that he is very peaceful despite what's going on and asked if he wanted eternal life. She would regret asking him as he gave an answer that disappointed her such as "I would destroy the world if I could have it" before being called for questioning. Alexia concluded that Shadow isn't arrogant as Cid and if he wanted eternal life, then the world's fate is ambiguous.
