"You should have read the Kuroshio report, right?"
"Honestly, I'm a little surprised that I learned about the information about the Old World in this way..."
"So you knew there was an old world!"
"I just know, I don't know much," Xia Lulu said, "It's really surprising that Envy, one of the legendary beasts, is still alive. I thought it died in the old world."
"You have also seen the true face of the Kuroshio, right?"
"Ah."
"Xia Lulu, you are the Queen of Silver Dragons, you should know the source of those dragon curses, right? I don't think they are just ordinary dragons. Those monsters in the Black Tide have been yelling about the Black King or something."
"..."
Xia Lulu was silent for a moment.
"I do not know."
Xia Yi felt that Xia Lulu's reaction was a bit strange, but she couldn't tell why...
"Daughter, you really impressed me. I must admit that the situation this time has long exceeded our original expectations. Even in the face of the threat of Leviathan, you still managed to complete this task excellently."
"Of course. For a dragon princess like me... ah, no, for a human swordsman, these are not difficult things. I have experienced many crises before, but I survived them all!"
Xia Yi held up her bear proudly.
Now it has fully proved its value!
"Daughter, you've worked hard on this job. You've just returned, so go and have a good rest," Xia Lulu said, "Don't worry about the losses later. Someone else will take care of it."
"Uh-huh."
Xia Yi nodded.
Judging from the atmosphere, she should have pushed it down.
But she still stood there, unwilling to leave.
"Is there anything else you want to report, daughter?"
"……there is none left."
"Oh, okay." Xia Lulu lowered her head and prepared to continue working.
Damn Silver Dragon Queen, did you do this on purpose?!
Xia Yi was so angry that her teeth were itching.
I have to go up and let Xia Lulu know how powerful I am!
She walked up aggressively.
I must not let down the Holy Sword's trust in me here!
But when Xia Lulu raised his eyes, the little princess was stunned for a moment, but avoided his gaze.
She came close to Xia Lulu, touching her sleeves. Xia Lulu's ears felt hot, and she whispered shyly, "What about the special reward for completing the work? You promised it yourself..."
36 Unique (Additional Update)
Xia Yi felt really ashamed.
What kind of words do I look like? !
Why do you look like you want to act coquettishly?
Have I fallen...
No, no, no, that's not the case!
It's all Xia Lulu's fault.
That's certainly the case.
Xia Yi thought about it and realized that she didn’t actually want to ask for a reward or anything, she was just aroused by Xia Lulu’s curiosity.
It was because of this woman that before he left for Gold, she insisted on keeping him in suspense, saying that she would give him a special reward after he completed the work.
Therefore, I began to care about it in my heart.
Just satisfying my curiosity, I have no other ideas!
Xia Lulu is still my mortal enemy, and this will not change. It does not count as a betrayal of the Holy Sword's trust.
And I still have a backup plan that I haven’t used yet.
The little princess calmed herself down and secretly glanced at Xia Lulu's reaction.
"Reward?" Xia Lulu looked confused. "What are you talking about? Daughter, I don't understand."
"You, you said that before...!"
Xia Yi was a little anxious.
"I will give you a special reward if you complete the work, and you have to wait until I come back to tell me what it is!"
"Is there such a thing?" Xia Lulu was a little surprised.
"Of course I have, do you want to break your promise?!"
Xia Yi was so anxious that she clenched her hands into fists and her tone changed.
"This..." Xia Lulu looked very troubled.
Xia Yi's heart sank.
How could this be...
She lowered her head, looking aggrieved.
At this time, Xia Lulu pinched Xia Yi's cheek and said with a wicked smile: "Don't be sad, daughter, I'm just teasing you, the reward has been prepared long ago."
"what?"
"I just didn't expect that you would care so much~"
"Huh? W-What are you talking about? I don't care whether there is such a thing or not!"
Xia Yi raised her head and quickly retorted.
"Xia Lulu, I took on this mission just to restore my dignity in the Dragon Clan Palace. It has nothing to do with you. The reward... I'm just curious. I just wonder what a guy like you would prepare and care about. Maybe it's something terrible."
; "Of course I won't let you down, come on."
Then, she grabbed Xia Yi's hand and left the office together.
The Silver Dragon Queen brought her daughter all the way to the back garden.
She gave orders to the royal maids who were waiting, and they quickly prepared afternoon tea.
"As soon as Her Royal Highness the Princess came back, she couldn't wait to find Her Majesty the Queen. What a wonderful relationship they have~" a member of the royal maid corps exclaimed.
"No, it's not! It's not what you think! This is just work! Work, understand?"
Why did Xia Yi feel that her explanation was so pale and powerless?
hateful.
In order to be able to use my backup plan, I have to endure the humiliation for the time being.
"Okay, you all go down. From now on, it's my daughter and I'll have a secret time." Xia Lulu waved her hand.
"As you command, Your Majesty."
Then, the members of the royal maid corps withdrew together.
"What is the special reward you mentioned?" Xia Yi asked.
"Special rewards have to be special."
Xia Lulu's answer was just to be mysterious.
"We agreed beforehand. You said at the time that you would definitely satisfy me. If I don't agree, then it doesn't count!"
"of course!"
"Humph."
Xia Yi sneered.
Whether or not one is qualified for the special transformation reward, after all, it is not her who has the final say.
No matter how excellent the reward is, as long as Xia Yi says "no", it will not be what she wants.
In this way, Xia Yi has a legitimate reason to humiliate Xia Lulu.
They even made things difficult for her.
Xia Lulu, ah Xia Lulu, you have fallen into my trap!
If I just give you a slight advantage, wouldn't you think you can win?
Do you think everything is within your calculation?
In fact, you will be defeated by me soon!
"Xia Yi, close your eyes."
"What? You're being so mysterious."
"Close your eyes, or this reward won't be anything special."
Xia Lulu walked behind Xia Yi and covered her eyes.
"Okay, okay! I get it. Don't be like this! I'll just close my eyes!" Xia Yi had no choice but to obey.
I have already made up my mind.
The moves that create an atmosphere are of no use to the battle-hardened swordsman.
The resolute and unyielding swordsman of the human race can say "no" to everything——
"Okay, open your eyes, Xia Yi."
