Volume 3 Chapter 215
by Need_More_SleepVolume 3 + Chapter 215: Detective Little Fox
Yue Liu heard those students discussing matters about the Human Sword Saint, and felt a bit curious, so she leaned closer to take a look.
In the magazine, she saw a swordsman clad in golden armor, holding a holy sword in his hand…
Why did it look so familiar??
It was exactly the same as the holy sword summoned by her nemesis the first time they met—the Silver Dragon Princess Xia Yi.
What was going on?
Yue Liu scratched her head.
“The Sword Saint is really too cool! I will never forget what I saw that day, I’ll remember it for a lifetime!”
The student belonging to Laurel Academy’s Swordsmanship Department showed an expression of deep admiration.
The little fox leaned over, “Hi?”
“Classmate Yue Liu?”
The Swordsmanship Department student was a little surprised to see Yue Liu.
After all, that head of pink hair was quite eye-catching, very few humans had pink hair.
“Speaking of which, why haven’t we seen Classmate Yue Liu around all this time?”
“Ahem, before, I had some matters, so I took leave from Laurel Academy. I only just returned.”
“Oh, no wonder!”
“I have something to ask you. About this Human Sword Saint here, is it true?”
Yue Liu pointed at the picture in the magazine.
“It’s truer than true!” The Swordsmanship student nodded. “The Calamity invaded Laurel Academy, and even used despicable means to destroy Teacher Biden’s Infinite Rainbow Magic Array. Just when everyone was about to be killed by the monsters, the Sword Saint appeared, and with the holy sword drove them back!”
“The Human Sword Saint is that strong?”
“Of course.”
Even as students of Laurel Academy, they couldn’t help but feel immense pride for humanity’s hero.
“Before our very eyes, the Sword Saint overwhelmed the witch, leading us to repel the Calamity.”
“What does the Sword Saint look like?”
“Well…”
The Swordsmanship student hesitated for a moment, then shook his head.
“We don’t know. From beginning to end, the Sword Saint was clad in golden armor.”
The others also confirmed they had never seen him.
The Human Sword Saint never removed his armor!
“So mysterious… how can you be sure it’s really a human inside…”
The little fox muttered under her breath.
But when the others heard this, they all gave her strange looks.
In order to continue prying for information, the pink-haired girl quickly corrected herself: “What I meant was, what if someone was impersonating him?”
“No need to worry about that, impossible. The Sword Saint bears the Holy Sword’s Mark, and even summons the Holy Sword!”
“I see… and after that?”
“After that, when the Sword Saint saw the situation stabilize, he temporarily left. Who knew the witch suddenly went berserk? The Knight Princess came to the rescue, defeated the witch, but was dragged into a space rift—”
The Swordsmanship student hadn’t finished when someone nearby added.
“Not just the Knight Princess, Classmate Xia Yi was dragged in too! The Knight Princess fell in while trying to save her!”
“Oh right, that really did happen.”
“My nemesis?” The little fox frowned slightly upon hearing Xia Yi’s name.
“The Sword Saint knew of their situation, so he used the Holy Sword’s Mark to track their auras, entered the subspace, and rescued both the Knight Princess and Xia Yi. That was the end of it.” The Swordsmanship student finished explaining.
“Did everyone see the Sword Saint enter the space rift?”
“No, not that. When it was all over, no one saw the Sword Saint. It was Classmate Xia Yi, who brought back the Knight Princess, who said so. And the Knight Princess also confirmed it.” The Swordsmanship student added.
Why did the little fox feel as if the Human Sword Saint and her nemesis had never appeared before the public together?
Could it be…?
She quickly worked through her thoughts, reasoned it out, and then smiled.
…
…
Xia Yi was in her dorm, lying on the sofa, flipping through a manga.
These past days have been exhausting. She hadn’t had much chance to slack off—oh no, she meant rest!
Because she and the Knight Princess had fallen together into the subspace, after returning, many people came to Laurel Academy to interview and question Xia Yi, to learn what happened there.
It was truly bothersome.
But there was no way the outside world could interview the Knight Princess—the Temple Knights would never allow it—so the only option was to come to Xia Yi.
Thus, she had been busy dealing with all sorts of groups and factions. She was nearly worn out, and only today had a chance to rest.
She had to make up for her missing manga time!
“Since I’ve already obtained Xia Lulu’s gift, then the next thing is to investigate what the upper echelons of humanity are really plotting, right?”
Xia Yi muttered to herself.
“Once I figure that out, I can leave the human world. The first place I should start is—”
Thud!
Just then, the dorm door opened.
Xia Yi felt strange—who was this, entering her dorm directly?
She sat up and saw the person—
“Fox Radish!”
“As expected of my nemesis, your first words upon reunion are a provocation! Trying to use a foolish nickname to make me lose my composure, thereby falling into your carefully prepared trap—but this has no effect on me! I have obtained the Abyss’s blessing, a transcendent mind. The present me has already completely surpassed your imagination!”
The little fox, as always, was in full Chuunibyou mode, leaning against the doorframe, speaking incomprehensible words.
Xia Yi laughed. “Fox Radish is still as Chuunibyou as ever.”
“Y-you—who are you calling Chuunibyou? This isn’t Chuunibyou!”
Yue Liu nearly lost control, but quickly stabilized her emotions. After all, soon it wouldn’t be her who would panic.
She entered the dorm, closed the door, and sneered.
“My nemesis, your secret has already been completely seen through by me, yet you still act so calm?”
“Secret?”
“Before the Fox God’s Eye, all falsehoods shall be shattered!!”
The little fox struck another carefully designed pose, her movements full of manga flair, emphasizing her left eye.
“I have already seen through your lies! Your true soul has been completely laid bare before me! Nothing can escape!!”
“Fox Radish, why are you so excited today? Did something upset you?”
Xia Yi was puzzled, even reaching out to touch the little fox’s forehead to see if she had a fever that had cooked her brain.
But the little fox dodged, and at the same time threw a magazine in front of Xia Yi.
On it was truly the Human Sword Saint, holding the Holy Sword.
Xia Yi couldn’t understand what Fox Radish meant by this.
But then, Yue Liu’s next words made the little Dragon Princess’s expression change abruptly.
