Sera opened the door and came in to see the deflated little princess lying on the bed with an unhappy look on her face.
After seeing this scene, Sera felt inexplicably happy.
"Sera, are you laughing at me?!"
"No, Your Highness, I'm not laughing, I'm happy for you," Sera explained.
"What's there to be happy about?"
"Of course you will be able to leave the Dragon Palace right away and make a career that will impress everyone in the Dragon Clan."
“This… of course!!”
Xia Yi sat up and immediately perked up.
She was ready to do something big.
"Your Highness, have you reported this to Her Majesty the Queen?" Sera asked.
"Well, as I said, I'm going to leave for Gold today. There's no time to lose!"
"Today? No problem, I'll go with you."
"Sera, are you going too?!"
"Yes, at least someone needs to help you complete this task. However, we dragons cannot be too high-profile in this mission. If too many dragons go to Gold, it is very likely that they will be exposed before the investigation is completed. If this alerts other foreign races, everyone will probably put aside their conflicts temporarily and decide to deal with us, which will be detrimental to our actions."
Sera explained to Xia Yi.
She thought about it carefully and realized that it was indeed the case.
After all, Gold is different from the Black Stone Kingdom. It has long been out of the protection of the Dragon Kingdom and is no longer a vassal state.
If the Dragon Clan intervenes in a blatant manner, it will definitely cause the outsiders to gather together and deal with the Dragon Clan together, thus forming resistance.
Well, it’s still a bit troublesome. These really need to be considered.
"It's okay, Sera, I know all of this, we can leave now!" Xia Yi replied, "Time waits for no one, if we go to Gold for a day, there will be more variables that may occur there."
"Your Highness, it is totally fine for us to leave for Gold today. However, I need to confirm if there is anything else you need to bring with you for this mission."
"It's necessary to bring it?" Xia Yi was a little confused. "Sera, what do you mean?"
"For example, you could bring some change of clothes, a pretty little dress..."
This maid, does she really think of herself as a girl?
ridiculous!
As a human swordsman, he only acts for efficiency.
I don’t care whether I can wear beautiful clothes or not.
"No need, Sera." Xia Yi waved her hand.
"Your Highness, are you sure? If you wear clothes you like, you will feel better and be more focused on your work."
"Well……"
Xia Yi was a little shaken.
If you think about it carefully, it’s all for work.
"That's true. It makes sense. Just bring a little bit. It's also for the sake of work efficiency!"
"So, Your Highness, do you need to bring your doll with you?"
Sera pointed to the stuffed pillow on Xia Yi's bed.
This is a long little dragon. The little princess has always loved it and she holds it in her arms when she goes to sleep at night.
"Sera, don't underestimate me. I'm just going out for work. There's no need to bring all this. You're treating me like a child!"
"But……"
"No buts!" Xia Yi flatly refused, "I went to Black Stone Country with Lucia last time, without the doll, and nothing happened!"
"My sister told me that your sleep quality in Black Stone Country was very average. I didn't treat you as a child, but this doll can help you calm down while you sleep. Good quality sleep will improve your work efficiency the next day."
"Is that so?"
"Yes, Your Highness, most people are like this."
Xia Yi felt that what Sera said was indeed right!
If you hug your own pillow, you will smell better when you sleep.
During the days I was in Black Stone Country, I did regret at night why I didn't bring my favorite stuffed pillow.
"Your Highness, this is still my strongest advice. It is a suggestion for the smooth completion of your work. This is advice from adults to adults." Sera said seriously.
"I really can't help it! Since it's Sera's request, just agree to it. But this is not what I want to bring!"
Xia Yi agreed.
"Just take these, nothing else!"
"Ok."
Sera laughed. As expected, Her Royal Highness the Princess was easy to deal with.
She acted quickly and finished cleaning up in no time and was on standby.
Everything is ready, just waiting for Xia Yi to give the order.
"Well, let's go. Our goal is—"
----------
Sorry, dear readers, I haven't updated much tonight because I was forced to visit relatives.
I couldn't refuse to go, and I had to stay with relatives I didn't see very often. I was asked all kinds of questions, and I could only explain awkwardly. I was also forced to drink. For someone with social anxiety, it was extremely torturous...
I will update more tomorrow
06 Seaside City (Additional Update)
Xia Yi and Sera left the Dragon Kingdom together.
The journey to Gordes is quite a distance.
If you can ride Sera, you can get there in less than three days.
However, I'd better try to keep a low profile on this trip and I can't fly.
Fortunately, there is a big river in the Dragon Kingdom that leads directly to Gold and flows into the sea.
So Xia Yi and Sera first went to the border of the Dragon Kingdom, and then hired a boat and went down the river to Gold.
"finally reached!"
Xia Yi jumped off the boat and landed on Gold's dock.
During this period of time, I have been sitting in the boat all the time. It is so boring!
Now I am finally free.
She breathed in deep breaths of air.
After giving the money to the boatman, Sera followed Xia down.
"Sera, have you been to Gold before?" Xia Yi asked.
"No, miss," Sera shook her head, "This is my first time in Golde, too."
Because she didn't want to reveal her identity in Gold for the time being, Sera changed the way she addressed Xia Yi from Her Royal Highness the Princess to Miss.
According to the setting, the two of them came from other countries and traveled to Gold.
In order to be less conspicuous, both of them used alchemical potions to temporarily hide their tails.
In fact, in this world, there are not many people who have actually seen the dragon clan.
Most people have only heard rumors.
In addition, Xia Yi and Sera hid their tails, so it was even harder for others to recognize that they were dragons.
"Then let's go into the city, maybe we can get some information!"
"Okay." Sera nodded.
Then, the red-haired maid sister in a black and white maid outfit followed the silver-haired lady in a white dress and walked into the city of Gold from the pier together.
Gold is a country on the sea, which is quite rare in this land.
Most countries are landlocked, even the Dragon Kingdom.
Many people may live in their own country from birth to death and have never seen the sea.
“Hey~hey~hey~”
The little princess jumped up the stairs nimbly, stood on the handrail, and looked into the distance.
In her vision was a vast ocean with no end, the waves were constantly rising and falling, and the blue horizon connected with the calm sky, forming a sharp contrast.
A gust of sea breeze blew and almost blew Xia Yi's white sun hat away.
"Be careful, miss." Sera helped her hold down the hat.
"Ok!"
Xia Yi smiled.
"Sera, what do you think is on the other side of the ocean?"
The ocean is a very mysterious entity. People know very little about it and have no idea what exists in the depths of the ocean.
And what is on the other side of the ocean?
However, there is no shortage of adventurers in this land.
In the long history, at a certain era, there was a legend that there was a golden country on the other side of the ocean.
There are countless gold, silver and treasures in the Golden Kingdom. The trees are full of gold and the ground is full of diamonds.
