Unfortunately, although these dark creatures are powerful, the Holy Sword has a special attack attribute against them. Even if they are transformed into a Holy Sword user, they will be burned to death by the Holy Sword.
When the holy sword has no user, it will gradually lose its brilliance, become a mortal object, and return to the human world. It will wake up again after a holy sword user is selected.
Therefore, no superior would use common sense to obtain the power of the holy sword, which is meaningless.
It was based on this point that Dorothea came up with a bold guess.
"No way, could Xiao Xiayi be..." Dorothy murmured to herself.
The dragon race has the ability to curse and can forcibly change the opponent's body. However, in this world, only the dragon race can carry dragon blood. Dragon blood is extremely corrosive and it is impossible for it to coexist with other bloodlines.
Foreigners cursed by the dragon clan will gradually transform into dragons, but because their bodies cannot withstand the dragon blood, their souls will eventually be twisted and they will become irrational monsters.
From ancient times to the present era, only one foreign race has retained its rationality and has been transformed into a dragon race.
That was the only exception in the dragon clan's history over the past tens of thousands of years. Apart from that, there were no other exceptions.
So, Xialulu's daughter was born through the Dragon King's curse?
This is so absurd!
It was simply that my own cognition was resisting Dorothea's understanding of this matter.
Such an exaggerated probability is like a person who has never bought lottery tickets, but one day on a whim, he bought a lottery ticket and won the jackpot of five million - this is the probability of successfully transforming from an alien into a dragon by bathing in the dragon blood curse.
Then, after receiving the prize, this person bought a lottery ticket for fun, and won the jackpot of five million again the next day - this is the probability that the surviving dragon happened to be a holy sword user during his lifetime.
No one would be willing to believe this kind of thing. It would be better to say that the Holy Sword suddenly went crazy and began to recognize the souls of the dragon clan, which seems more reasonable in comparison.
"Maybe I'm overthinking it... This makes me care more, Xia Lulu, can't you just say it directly?" Dorothea felt a little regretful.
If I had known this earlier, I wouldn't have thought about it too deeply. The more I think about it, the more I care.
"Xiao Xiayi, who are you and why can you use the holy sword?!"
“Eh, eh…?! I, I…”
Xia Yi hesitated in response to Dorothea's sudden question.
How could she possibly reveal her dark history?
Rather, she absolutely, absolutely, absolutely does not want anyone to know.
Xia Lulu knew that there was really no other way, and she couldn't have a second person.
“…I sprang out of a stone.”
After a long while, Xia Yi could only utter this sentence.
Dorothea was really speechless.
When Ellie heard this, she felt very confused, but she didn't dare to ask more questions.
Although Her Majesty the Queen did not say it directly, there was no doubt about Her Royal Highness the Princess' identity. With identical looks and the bloodline of the Silver Dragon royal family, they could only be mother and daughter... Moreover, Her Royal Highness the Princess was qualified enough to be the heir to the Dragon Kingdom, and this was the most important thing!
No one would be so blind as to ask Xia Lulu such a question, unless they were tired of living.
Her Majesty the Queen does not like others to delve into the birth of Her Royal Highness the Princess. The dragon clan did this before, but then... then no more.
"Just think about it slowly on your own, Dorothea. You may rack your brains but still not be able to figure it out. You may even lose sleep." Xia Lulu teased happily.
Dorothea was very dissatisfied and hooked her finger, wanting to do something.
Suddenly, Xia Yi felt herself being hooked by a thin thread and pulled to Dorothea's side.
Dorothea held the little princess's shoulders, smiled, and whispered something in her ear.
"Xiao Xia Yi, let me tell you a secret..."
106 Oh no, it’s over~ (4k)
Dorothea whispered something in Xia Yi's ear.
"What did you say?"
Xia Yi was a little bit unconvinced.
She wanted to make sure, and at this moment -
"Daughter, don't listen to what this weird grandma says."
Xia Lulu pulled Xia Yi back.
"Who are you calling the weird grandma? I am clearly a 17-year-old girl!!" Dorothea protested.
"Let's go back, Xia Yi. There's no need for us to stay in Ziyuan Valley for long."
It seemed that Xia Lulu didn't want to continue communicating with Dorothea, so she turned and left.
Xia Yi didn't think much about it and followed him.
"Your Majesty the Queen, Your Highness the Princess, please wait for me..." Ellie didn't dare to stay here alone.
Before leaving, Xia Yi looked back at Dorothea.
Dorothea simply smiled at her, waved her hand, and disappeared.
"...What a strange dragon clan." Xia Yi said in a low voice.
She pondered for a moment and ran to Xia Lulu's side.
"What kind of person was Dorothea?"
"Do you care about her so much?" Xia Lulu asked.
Xia Yi nodded, "Well, Yuritas is Dorothea's last name, right?"
"Yuritas... This surname has been around for tens of thousands of years. It is the surname of the Golden Dragon Clan."
"Dorothea is the last golden dragon, right?"
"The Golden Dragons violated some absolute taboo and were all sentenced to death, including Dorothea. Although she was implicated, all the Golden Dragons were not spared. Her age at the time... if we talk about the age of the Dragons, she was indeed seventeen years old."
Xia Lulu began to narrate slowly.
"Dorothea may have mental problems. But this is not a shortcoming. For the dragon clan, it may be a sign of becoming the Dragon King. When she knew that the entire Yuritas clan was going to be executed, she did not choose to escape. Instead, she made a puppet and stuffed her consciousness into the puppet. She lived in the puppet and turned her body into an empty shell."
"This……"
Xia Yi didn't know how to evaluate Dorothea for a moment, but not many people dared to do such a thing to themselves, abandoning their physical bodies and becoming a puppet.
In that case, if I become a puppet, am I still myself?
That's crazy.
"On the day of her execution, Dorothea went to watch it herself. Her heart was pierced and she was beheaded. She watched herself being executed and was very happy. It was obvious that she had serious mental problems," Xia Lulu commented.
"and after?"
"The dragon clan buried the gold dragon clan. Although the Yuritas clan violated a taboo, the nobility of their status and bloodline will not change. As the original heir of Yuritas, Dorothea received an exceptional funeral. The cross we see is her tombstone, and her body is buried under the cross. Dorothea, who had become a puppet, came to her own cemetery and used it as a base. She began to study puppet technology and mold a new body for herself. After all, the gold dragon clan that violated the taboo is buried here, and no one wants to get close. It is also a quiet place where they will not be disturbed."
"Then were these special spatial rules set by Dorothea herself?"
Xia Yi thought about this and realized that it would be almost impossible to get out after entering Ziyuan Valley.
"That's not the case. Purple Kite Valley was her grave at first, and later it became her prison. Although she is a puppet, her strength is still that of a real dragon, and she has the potential to be a dragon king. Even though she likes to use silk threads, her magic is actually very powerful. In a sense, after she became a puppet, she couldn't be killed, but became even more terrifying. After many years, the dragons finally discovered Dorothea and thought she was a threat, so they came to Purple Kite Valley and wanted to kill her."
Xia Lulu's tone was slightly emotional.
"The dragons at that time misjudged Dorothea's strength and failed to kill her. As for Dorothea, her thinking cannot be understood with common sense. She never thought about revenge or anything like that. She only wanted to indulge in her puppets and didn't want to waste time with the dragons. She just drove away the invading dragons. But the dragons kept sending people over, and eventually Dorothea was completely angry. She took the initiative to go to the dragon palace, killing everyone she saw, and made all the killed dragons into her own toys. The Dragon King of that generation tried to get rid of Dorothea, but it didn't work at all. She was a puppet and couldn't die. If she died, she would just change her body, which was almost equivalent to being invincible."
When Xia Yi heard this, she felt horrified and was speechless.
"That generation of Dragon King decided to seal Dorothea in her graveyard. He joined forces with the powerful dragons and spent a lot of money to transfer Dorothea to the Purple Kite Valley. He used a divine tool to change the laws of space here to serve as her prison. Dorothea saw that no one came to disturb her anymore, so she calmed down a bit and started making dolls again, and occasionally planted flowers."
After listening, Xia Yi had a general understanding of what happened. This was Dorothea's past.
However, there is still one thing I don’t quite understand.
"If it is a seal, why can the outside world enter the Ziyuan Valley?" Xia Yi was puzzled.
"After all, the seal has loosened after so many years. I feel that the seal cannot hold Dorothea, but she just doesn't want to leave and go to the outside world. It was at that time that I accidentally entered the Purple Iris Valley and met Dorothea."
"Doesn't Dorothea make intruders into toys? How come you're okay? And it seems like you're pretty familiar with her."
"that is because--"
Xia Lulu paused for a few seconds.
"Don't tell you."
"You're not going to tell me that!"
"Children should not delve into adult matters so much."
Xia Lulu was firm in her attitude and just didn't want to continue talking.
Xia Yi felt that Xia Lulu was really hypocritical. He kept talking about Dorothea, but once it came to his own past, he would keep silent and could not be persuaded to speak.
Xia Yi thought about it and realized that when Xia Lulu broke into the Ziyuan Valley, he should not have become the Dragon King yet.
At that time, Xia Lulu was a willful princess in the Dragon Palace who loved to make trouble everywhere, which was completely opposite to now.
Normally, after Dorothea saw Charulu, she should have made her into a toy, right?
However, judging from the attitudes of these two people, this did not happen, and they became friends instead.
correct.
Xia Yi still remembered that Dorothea made a request to her at that time.
Make yourself look cute for her, after all, we look exactly the same, so——
"So that's it!!" Xia Yi suddenly realized.
It turns out that Xia Lulu survived by acting cute.
He probably saved his life by acting cute in front of Dorothea. This is a shameful black history that he is unwilling to mention.
Humph, Xia Lulu, so you used to be this kind of person.
win!
My own performance was still better. Even when facing Dorothea's intimidation, I didn't act cute at all.
