Volume 6 Chapter 139
by Golden DragonVolume 6 + Chapter 139: Too Intense
“Your Highness, now I’m going to… be insolent~”
Atiya looked at Xia Yi, who was tearful before her eyes, and couldn’t help but smile, the corners of her mouth turning up.
In the nighttime room, only Atiya and Xia Yi were present. This mistress and maid were doing something unspeakable.
“You, you… wouldn’t dare…!”
“Why wouldn’t I dare? After all, Your Highness told me herself, since we’re doing this, we have to do it seriously~”
“Wuu!”
Xia Yi bit her lip, her body beginning to tremble. She could barely hold out against Atiya’s tail any longer.
But she had to own up to the words she had spoken.
“Your Highness, aren’t you going to fight back yet?” Atiya asked. “Your resistance is even weaker than the previous few times. Though you say otherwise verbally, your body is quite honest. Your Highness, I’m about to launch a new wave of attacks!”
Atiya’s tail entwined with Xia Yi’s and began to exert force.
“Wuu aaah!”
A soft, delicate cry escaped Xia Yi’s throat. In the face of Atiya’s assault, she ultimately suffered defeat.
Thud!
The little princess’s large silver tail was slapped onto the table, signaling the end of the game.
“Another victory secured. Easy and simple~”
Atiya cheerfully released Xia Yi’s tail.
Yes, that was right. The two of them were playing a game of tail-wrestling. The current score was six to zero.
In six matches, Xia Yi had achieved a complete losing record.
“Damn it!”
Xia Yi’s tail slid down as she lay on the table, utterly unwilling to accept defeat.
“I can’t accept this! How can I not win a single round?”
“It’s because of the age difference,” Atiya explained. “After all, Her Highness is currently only…”
“What are you talking about? I’m already three hundred years old!” Xia Yi immediately retorted. “Don’t talk nonsense!”
“But…”
“No buts!”
“Very well.”
“Again, Atiya! I refuse to believe I can’t win even one round!”
After resting for a while, Xia Yi regained some strength, stood up, and slapped her tail back onto the table.
“Absolutely no going easy on me. If you do, I’ll be angry!”
“Your Highness, I don’t quite understand. Why do you insist on playing this game?” Atiya asked, puzzled. “You clearly have no chance of winning.”
“This isn’t a game. It’s… training,” Xia Yi said seriously.
“Training?”
“Correct. I need to overcome this weakness.”
“Oh oh oh! Just like the protagonist in a manga, right? Secret training to become stronger.” Atiya grew excited.
“That’s not entirely it. I’m considering that in the future, I might have to face a powerful silver dragon and fight her, so I need to make some preparations in advance,” Xia Yi explained.
“Hmm, a silver dragon?”
Atiya blinked, gradually remembering.
“Oh! You mean the Dragon Envoy, one of the three great Envoys?”
“Yes. She’s also a dragon, even of the same silver dragon race as me. She’s surely very strong. I can’t afford to be careless.”
“Yes, that is indeed true,” Atiya agreed.
“Alright, enough chatting. Let’s continue!” Xia Yi said, full of fighting spirit. “No matter what, I must win at least one round against you today! Otherwise, don’t even think about sleeping tonight.”
…
…
“Good morning, Your Highness. It’s almost time to assemble.”
“…Eh?”
Hearing Atiya’s voice, Xia Yi opened her eyes and found herself lying in bed. Sunlight was streaming in from outside. It was already morning.
Atiya had already changed into her Maginot military uniform. Her figure was tall and slender, quite well-proportioned. Paired with her blue hair and deep eyes, the uniform on her exuded a mysterious and cool beauty.
That is, as long as she didn’t open her mouth, everything would be perfect.
“Your Highness, what would you like to eat? Cake? Pancakes? Xiaolongbao?”
Atiya’s signature goofy smile appeared on her face, completely destroying the aura she carried.
“That’s strange. How did I fall asleep?”
Xia Yi sat up, supporting her forehead.
“Atiya, weren’t we training last night?”
“Yes, Your Highness. We fought more than ten rounds.”
“Ugh…”
Xia Yi remembered.
She had been so frustrated by her losses that she refused to give up and kept calling for more.
In the end, the stimulation to her tail was too intense, causing her to let out a cry of distress and pass out.
To sum it up, the training between her and Atiya had been simply too intense…
“Alright, alright, let’s not talk about that. It’s already morning. Let’s go assemble first, ah!”
Xia Yi got out of bed and tried to stand. But after just one step, her legs went weak and she nearly fell to the floor. Fortunately, Atiya caught her.
“Your Highness, are you… alright?” Atiya asked with concern.
“I’m, I’m fine!”
“Was I too forceful last night?”
“Atiya, you’re overthinking it. The floor was just a little slippery in the morning. What are you even imagining?” Xia Yi quickly stood up again. “Ha! As if I could be defeated by you that easily?”
Atiya asked, “Your Highness, shall we continue tonight?”
“Continue? Why not? I was just… a bit sleepy yesterday. It’s not that I couldn’t handle the training intensity. Training at this level is simply easy and simple for me.”
Xia Yi instinctively activated her strongest skill.
“Atiya, step up the intensity tonight. Don’t let me get bored.”
“Mm, understood!”
Atiya nodded. She decided in her heart that tonight, she would raise the difficulty a bit. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to please her princess.

Inside Maginot Fortress, Yuren entered a mysterious area heavily guarded by soldiers. He stepped into an elevator and descended all the way down, arriving at an underground space.
“Lord Yuren!”
The engineers who were working all stopped and bowed in unison upon seeing Yuren.
Yuren looked at the project before him and asked, “What is the current progress?”
“Lord Yuren, the progress…”
The lead engineer hesitated, then after a moment’s thought, spoke out.
“The project has encountered a major obstacle. To overcome it, our magical abilities are insufficient. If this continues, the plan can only end in failure!”
“…The silver dragon Xia Yi. Perhaps she is the key to saving everything.”
