Volume 2 + Chapter 63: Sword of Hopeful Victory
It has been six days since the vampires arrived at the Dragon Palace, and it’s almost a week now.
During this time, the vampires have been sending out diplomatic groups to actively negotiate with the dragons.
The vampires have repeatedly requested to meet with Vampire Princess Miu Miu · Borgias, but all were ruthlessly rejected by the dragons.
The dragons’ stance is very firm, stating that unlike the barbaric and unreasonable vampires, they have always guaranteed the personal safety of the Vampire Princess. However, as long as the compensation offered in the negotiations is not satisfactory, the Vampire Princess, who is a hostage, is not allowed to meet with the vampires.
Other superior races who learned of this also expressed their opinions, most of them maintaining a spectator’s attitude.
For example, the Fox Emperor, after learning of this, simply walked away with a 6… (“walked away with a 6” sometimes means irony, meaning “go faster”)
…
Dragon Kingdom, Dragon Palace.
Today, the little princess is still guarding the hostage, fulfilling her duty.
“Xia Yi Yi, you have so many comic books.”
The Vampire Princess was lying on Xia Yi’s bed, looking at her comic books.
Xia Yi was very proud, “I have many out-of-print comic books!”
“Where did they come from?”
“Sera helped me buy them!”
Xia Yi doesn’t know how Sera managed to collect these comic books for her.
But that mysterious maid seems to have all sorts of means and channels to get her hands on rare and limited edition comics.
“Oh, this comic is so interesting~ Xia Yi Yi, my favorite comic must be this one!”
Miu Miu picked up a comic book.
Xia Yi took a closer look and almost couldn’t help but cry out.
It was—
“Legend of the Sword Saint,” a comic adapted by a human comic artist based on the experiences of the Human Sword Saint Wright Schubert. It was a bestseller in various human countries.
To some extent, it was Xia Yi’s dark history.
“Xia Yi Yi, look, it’s so amazing! Our battle is included here!”
Miu Miu flipped open the comic book, holding it in front of Xia Yi, happily showing it off.
That battle was when Wright, as the Human Sword Saint, had just received the title of Sword Saint not long ago and met a mysterious and powerful vampire girl, resulting in a desperate fight.
“This is…!”
Xia Yi covered her cheeks with her arms.
So embarrassing!
The plot in this comic is completely different from the original.
Normally, it would be Wright fighting Miu Miu, being unilaterally suppressed, even having his blood sucked, and when his consciousness was unclear, he affirmed himself, allowing the Holy Sword to awaken partially, gaining further recognition from the Holy Sword. With the Holy Sword’s special attack against dark creatures, he managed to drag the fight until dawn.
As a result, Miu Miu had to retreat, and Wright survived.
But the plot is not like that at all.
“How could I possibly fall here? Behind me are countless humans. As the wielder of the Holy Sword, I carry too many people’s hopes. To protect everyone, to protect the smiles of the children! Holy Sword, please lend me your power, use your light to dispel the darkness!”
Miu Miu read with emotion.
“There’s no such part at all, ahhh!” Xia Yi’s face began to heat up.
Such embarrassing lines, why would anyone like them?
She has always been the type who is tough and not talkative, and would never recite such long lines just to look cool during a fight.
If she really did something like this in a battle, she would have been killed long ago!
“Human, why are you as dazzling as the sun? No, impossible, this can’t be, I’m actually afraid of you!”
Miu Miu was very invested, immersing herself in the role of herself in the comic, not only infusing the lines with emotion but even acting them out on the spot.
In front of the person involved, she played both roles.
After playing the evil vampire antagonist, she immediately switched to the role of the Holy Sword wielder.
“Nothing is impossible, evil vampire! I am different from you. As long as my heart holds hope, no matter the difficulty, I will not yield. This is the infinite possibility that humans possess!! Finishing move—Sword of Hopeful Victory!”
“Ah ah ah ah!! Stop reading, stop reading, ahhh!!!”
Xia Yi covered her ears, letting out a wail. This was the ultimate torture for her.
“Could it be, Xia Yi Yi, when you said last time that you were learning moves from the comic, you meant the Sword of Hopeful Victory?” Miu Miu asked curiously, her joyful smile clearly teasing.
“Wuaaahhhh!”
The frustrated little princess immediately snatched the “Legend of the Sword Saint” from Miu Miu’s hands.
“Don’t look, don’t look, don’t look! From today on, no one is allowed to look at this series of comics, forbidden, absolutely forbidden!”
Afterward, she found all the “Legend of the Sword Saint” comics, put them in a box, placed it on the top shelf of the bookcase, and applied a magic circle to it. If anyone touched it, it would be noticeable.
“What a pity, I still wanted to see more of Xia Yi Yi’s story, to understand more…”
Miu Miu sighed, feeling regretful.
“The stories above are all made up, you saw it, our battle is completely different from what’s in the comics, how could you believe it?”
“But it also shows that Xia Yi Yi’s popularity in the human world is really high.”
“…That’s why I can’t reveal my identity, I definitely can’t let others know my identity.”
“Now that you mention it, it’s true. Humans are quite hostile towards dragons. If they knew that their idol had become a dragon… the impact would indeed be quite bad.”
Xia Yi smiled bitterly, “Humans always see dragons as an evil race, an existence that must be defeated, but the truth is, dragons have never taken humans seriously.”
She stood up, looked at the clock, and it was about time.
“Alright, Miu Miu, it’s time to sleep.”
“Mhm.”
“Good night.”
The lights in the room went out.
…
The mark on Miu Miu’s shoulder was heating up, as if it was always calling her in a low voice, preventing her from sleeping.
“Princess, this way…”
“…”
“Princess, I’ve come to pick you up, wake up, find me.”
Miu Miu opened her eyes and glanced at her side. Xia Yi was sound asleep.
She got out of bed and opened the door to the room.
She looked around the corridor and saw a small figure in a dark corner, with red eyes emitting a faint glow in the darkness.
It was a vampire.
Miu Miu frowned and walked over.
“Princess, I’ve finally found you.”
It was a bat, probably a pureblood transformed.
“Who are you?” Miu Miu asked.
“I am a messenger specially sent to assist you. I followed the diplomatic mission and secretly infiltrated the Dragon Palace.” The bat replied, “Princess, I found you following the guidance of His Majesty Herman. Let’s leave together quickly.”
“…”
“Princess, this is a rare opportunity. While no one is around, I will take you to escape the Dragon Palace and return to the Crimson Empire—”
“Don’t!”
