NOVEL WEB Volume 2 Chapter 35
35. Fierce Princess
“Your Highness, Your Highness, can you tell me how you defeated the Black Tide all by yourself?!”
At this moment, on the face of the little green dragon maid, several big characters were written—
I’m very curious!
Xia Yi remembered that when she had seen Elly before, this trainee maid of the Royal Maid Corps kept trying to run away.
But now she kept casting admiring glances at her.
Majesty, it’s really addictive.
“Elly, it’s actually very simple, you know, it only takes one thought of mine to destroy the Black Tide.”
“One thought can do it?”
“Just use the Dragon King’s Pressure!”
“Can you show me again? That one, that one!”
“Cough cough, watch carefully, only this once, because Elly wants to know, I’ll perform it especially.”
Xia Yi stood still, struck a pose, put on a particularly cool expression, swung her arm, and even changed her voice to make it sound full of authority.
“I, Xia Yi·Christie, command thee to perish!”
Elly was stunned for a while, then laughed stiffly.
“Wow, so amazing, Your Highness, and then?”
“Then, those monsters died!”
“Died?”
“They killed themselves.”
Elly felt it was strange, was this… too much of a tall tale?
Too unbelievable.
She looked at Xia Yi, not feeling any strong pressure, but instead thought the princess was a bit cute.
Could it be that Princess Xia Yi charmed the Black Tide to death with her cuteness?
“Elly, keep up the good work, I have other things to be busy with!” Xia Yi cheerfully patted Elly’s shoulder.
“Oh… okay!”
Elly hurriedly saluted Xia Yi, still in a daze.
…
Xia Yi now felt that the entire dragon race’s view of her had changed.
In the Dragon Palace, there was only one person left to conquer.
Now, Xia Yi was going to face her archenemy!
Before long, she arrived in front of Xia Lulu’s office.
“Holy Sword!”
Xia Yi summoned the Holy Sword.
The Holy Sword in her hand shone with brilliance.
“Old friend, please lend me your power next! I will prove to the Silver Dragon Queen that I’m not so easy to bully!”
The Holy Sword flashed twice in response.
Xia Yi was very moved.
“Old friend, you still trust me, so I must fight a beautiful battle and wash away the past shame! To restore the glory of the Human Sword Saint!”
“Who’s talking to themselves outside?”
Xia Lulu’s voice came from the office.
Xia Yi quickly put away the Holy Sword, straightened herself, opened the door, and walked in as if nothing had happened.
At this time, a silver-haired dragon loli, wearing a queen’s exclusive dress, sat in front of the office desk.
It was Xia Lulu.
Seeing her daughter, Xia Lulu’s lips curled into a smile.
The battle began!
This guy wanted to appear effortless and suppress her with momentum.
Useless.
Xia Yi had already seen through it.
She couldn’t let Xia Lulu take the initiative; she had to strike first.
“I’m back, Xia Lulu, I’ve completed the work in Golde.”
“Hmm, I’ve already read the report on that.”
“You haven’t seen me during this time. I must miss you, right?”
“Hmm?” Xia Lulu tilted her head.
Xia Yi realized she had misspoken.
Oh no!
“No no no, I didn’t mean that, I was asking if you missed me? It was just a slip of the tongue!”
“Was it a slip of the tongue, or the truth?”
“Definitely a slip of the tongue! Don’t flatter yourself, we are archenemies, why would I miss you? Haha!”
Xia Lulu’s slender fingers crossed, propping up her chin, her eyes narrowing with interest.
“Daughter, do you want me to miss you or not?”
“That’s of course—uh! It’s not right to answer a question with a question, that doesn’t count!”
“So you care about my opinion that much~”
Xia Yi felt something was wrong.
How did she get led by Xia Lulu again?
She had to take back control of the pace!
“Hmph, I don’t care what you think at all, I just came back to report on my work!”
Xia Yi quickly shifted the topic back to work.
“You’ve seen the report on the Black Tide, haven’t you?”
“To be honest, I’m surprised. To learn about the Old World in such a way…”
“So you knew about the Old World!”
“I just knew about it,” Xia Lulu said, “The fact that Envy from the Legendary Beasts is still alive is indeed surprising, I thought they had all perished in the Old World.”
“Did you also see the true face of the Black Tide?”
“Yes.”
“Xia Lulu, as the Silver Dragon Queen, you should know the origin of those Dragon Curses, right? I don’t think they’re just any ordinary dragons. Those monsters in the Black Tide kept ranting about the Black King.”
“…”
Xia Lulu fell silent for a moment.
“I don’t know about that.”
Xia Yi felt Xia Lulu’s reaction was a bit strange, but couldn’t quite put her finger on why…
“Daughter, you’ve really impressed me. I must admit, the situation has far exceeded the original expectations, and even facing the threat of Leviathan, you still managed to complete the task excellently.”
“Of course, for the Dragon Princess like me… ah, no, for the Human Sword Saint, it’s not a difficult task. I’ve been through many crises before and survived them all!”
Xia Yi proudly puffed out her chest.
Now she had fully proven her worth!
“Daughter, you’ve worked hard on this task. You’ve just come back, so go and rest well,” Xia Lulu said, “You don’t need to worry about the aftermath. Others will take care of it.”
“Mm, mm.”
Xia Yi nodded.
According to the atmosphere, she should have left by now.
But she still stood there, unwilling to leave just like that.
“Is there anything else you need to report, Daughter?”
“…No, that’s all.”
“Oh, alright then.” Xia Lulu lowered her head, ready to continue working.
That damn Silver Dragon Queen, are you doing this on purpose?!
Xia Yi was so frustrated she could grind her teeth.
She had to go up there and show Xia Lulu her true capabilities!
She marched up with determination.
She absolutely couldn’t let down the Holy Sword’s trust in her!
But when Xia Lulu looked up, the little princess hesitated for a moment and then avoided her gaze.
She moved closer to Xia Lulu, her sleeves rustling, her ears burning hot, and in a shy, low voice, she said, “What about the special reward for completing the task? You promised me personally…”
