"Uh……"
Xia Yi's smile froze.
It’s really hard to pick up any pot!
"If the disciples of the human sword master knew that the teacher they once admired had turned into a white-haired loli who liked to play badly, their reactions would definitely be very interesting -"
"That kind of thing will never happen!"
"Xia Yiyi, it's really interesting. You're really different from others." Miu Miu laughed, and her mood seemed to have improved a lot.
Xia Yi also noticed that the mark behind her shoulder dimmed and no longer glowed.
"Well, it's time to go back to bed, or I'm going to die suddenly."
Miu Miu stood up and jumped down from the windowsill. As she passed behind Xia Yi, she said two words -
Thank you.
But she deliberately didn't make any sound.
……
Crimson Empire, Blood Clan Palace.
The King of the Blood Clan, Hermann, was sitting on his throne. His fingers kept tapping on the armrests at a rapid rhythm, and it was obvious that he was not in a very happy mood.
"How dare you disobey me..."
"Your Majesty, what's wrong?"
A voice interrupted Herman's thoughts.
His eyes dropped. On the steps was an elderly pureblood wearing a scarlet robe with long black tassels. Even those of noble blood could not wear such a color combination. In the entire court, there was only one person -
The Prime Minister of the Crimson Empire, Owen Garcia.
"Your Majesty, if you have any troubles, please tell me. I may be able to help you."
"nothing."
Hermann appeared to be back to his usual calm self.
"Sir Owen, what's the response to the compensation we collected from the major families?"
"Your Majesty, it seems that progress is somewhat difficult. Many families are deliberately delaying, and we may not be able to collect the collection money."
"Is someone secretly interfering?"
"Yes, Your Majesty. I have done some research and found that it was the Howard family, the family behind Earl Harvey, who did this."
"What do you think, Lord Owen?"
"The Howard family is trying to use the influence it has had so far to get other families to delay. Some people are hindered by the power of the Howard family, while others are hoping for the best and want to drag all the families down with them. They want to unite together to embarrass you and force you to lower the collection requirements."
"Interesting," Hermann laughed. "Stubborn nobles actually want to fight against the imperial power."
Owen Garcia is different from other families. The fate of their family has always been tied to the emperor of the blood clan, and they will only stand up for the royal family.
The other nobles cursed the Garcia family as running dogs, and took the initiative to put leashes around their necks and abandon their dignity.
"Your Majesty, I suggest that we continue to put pressure on the Howard family. When necessary, we should send troops to forcibly confiscate their fiefdoms."
"Mr. Owen means... to force them to rebel?"
"Yes, Your Majesty, please rest assured. As long as you are willing to buy off a certain family, exempt them from the levy, and let them act as undercover agents next to the Howard family to fan the flames."
"Since Lord Ou Wen has made this suggestion, does that mean you have already figured it out?"
"Yes, Your Majesty, I have already arranged the candidates for the undercover family. As long as you agree, this plan can be implemented. This time, we will directly eradicate the Howard family and kill all those involved to serve as a warning to others and deter all nobles."
"Well, Lord Ou Wen still understands my heart. He is always able to do what I want and solve problems. Go ahead and do it."
"I am grateful for your praise, Your Majesty. I will do it right away."
The vampire prime minister saluted and then left.
Hermann was the only one in the huge palace.
The blood clan king's eyes were gloomy and his voice was as cold as ice, "Miaomiao, have you really forgotten who you are?"
63 Sword of Hope and Victory
It has been six days since the vampires arrived at the Dragon Palace, and it will soon be a week.
During this period of time, the blood clan has been sending diplomatic missions to actively negotiate with the dragon clan.
The vampires had repeatedly requested to meet with the vampire princess Miu Miu Borgia, but all were ruthlessly rejected by the dragons.
The attitude of the Dragon Clan was very tough. They stated that unlike the barbaric and unreasonable vampires, they had always guaranteed the personal safety of the vampire princess. However, as long as the compensation proposed in the negotiations was not in place, the vampire princess, as a hostage, would not be allowed to meet with the vampires.
The other superior species learned about this and expressed their opinions one after another, but most of them just kept watching.
For example, after knowing this, the Nine-Tailed Fox King said that he would go with a single move of 6...
……
The kingdom of dragons, the dragon palace.
Today, the little princess is still guarding the hostages and fulfilling her duties.
"Xia Yiyi, there are so many comic books."
The vampire princess was lying on Xia Yi's bed, reading her comic book.
Xia Yi was very proud, "I have many out-of-print comic books!"
"Where did it come from?"
"Sera bought it for me!"
Xia Yi also didn't know how Sera helped her collect these comic books.
However, the mysterious maid seemed to have various means and channels to obtain the limited edition comics.
"Oh, this comic is so interesting~ Xia Yiyi, this is probably my favorite comic!"
Miu Miu held up a comic book.
Xia Yi took a closer look and almost couldn't help but scream out.
That is--
"Legend of the Sword Master" is a comic book adapted from the experiences of the human sword master Wright Schubert by a human cartoonist in the human world. It is a best-seller in various human countries.
To some extent, this is Xia Yi's dark history.
"Xia Yiyi, look, it's amazing! Our entire battle has been recorded!"
Miu Miu opened the comic book, held it in front of Xia Yi, and showed it happily.
In that battle, Light, who was once a sword saint of the human race, had just earned the title of sword saint. Not long after that, he met a mysterious and powerful vampire girl and had a desperate fight with her.
"This is……!"
Xia Yi covered her face with her arms.
What a shame!
The plot of this comic is completely different from the original.
The normal situation is that Light fights with Miu Miu, is unilaterally suppressed, and has his blood sucked. When he is unconscious, he is firm in himself, allowing the Holy Sword to initially awaken, and obtains further recognition from the Holy Sword. Under the Holy Sword's special attack on the dark creatures, he and Miu Miu drag on until dawn.
As a result, Miu Miu had to retreat and Wright survived.
But that’s not the case in the plot at all.
"How could I... fall here? Behind me are countless human beings. As a holy sword user, I carry the hopes of so many people. To protect everyone, to protect the smiles of children! Holy sword, please lend me your power and use the light to dispel the darkness!"
Miu Miu read aloud with great emotion.
"There is no such part at all!" Xia Yi's face began to turn red.
Why would anyone like such an embarrassing line?
I have always been the type of person who is ruthless and doesn't talk much. I would never recite such long lines just to look cool during a fight.
If someone really did something like this in battle, he would have been beaten to death long ago!
"Human, why are you as dazzling as the sun? No, it's impossible, this is impossible, I am actually afraid of you!"
Miu Miu was very involved and brought herself into the comics. Not only did she inject emotion into her lines, she even acted them out on the spot.
A double act was played in front of the parties involved.
After playing the role of the evil villain vampire, he immediately plunged into the role of the holy sword user.
"Nothing is impossible, evil vampires! I am different from you. As long as I have hope in my heart, I will never give in no matter how difficult the situation is. This is the infinite possibility that humans have!! Must-kill - the sword of hope and victory!"
“Ahhhhh!! Stop reciting it, stop reciting it!!!”
Xia Yi covered her ears and screamed. For her, this was the ultimate torture.
"Could it be that when Xia Yiyi said last time that she wanted to learn moves from comics, she was hoping for the Sword of Victory?" Miu Miu asked curiously, her cheerful smile clearly a tease.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
The furious little princess immediately snatched "Legend of the Sword Master" from Miu Miu's hands.
"Don't read it, don't read it, don't read it! From today on, no one is allowed to read this series of comics. It's forbidden, it's absolutely forbidden!"
Then, she found all the copies of "Legend of the Sword Master", put them in a box, and placed it on the top of the bookshelf. At the same time, she cast a magic circle so that anyone who touched it would be able to see it.
"What a pity! I want to read Xia Yiyi's later story and learn more about her..."
Miu Miu sighed, feeling very regretful.
"The stories above are all made up. You've seen that the fight between us is completely different from what's in the comics. How can you believe it?"
"But it can also be seen that Xia Yiyi's popularity is really high in the human world."
"…So I can't reveal my identity. I definitely can't let others know my identity."
"Now that you mention it, it's true. Humans do hate dragons. If they knew that the idol they worshipped had turned into a dragon... this would have a really bad impact."
