Volume 2 + Chapter 75: Investigation
“Damn Silver Dragon Queen, don’t think you’ve won like this! I’ll remember this grudge!”
Xia Yi, holding a comic book, ran back to her room.
Along the way, she was seen by many dragons.
Refreshing the public’s impression of Xia Yi.
Among them was Elly.
“Her Highness just now was so… cute!” Elly, holding a broom, remarked.
No wonder the Princess could charm the Black Tide and even conquer the Vampire Princess.
Especially after Serra, as Her Highness’s maid, explained to everyone in the Dragon Palace, it made everyone believe even more.
The Princess really did sleep in the same bed with the Vampire Princess at night, doing some indescribable things!
What else could it be?
Before, everyone just speculated, but now after Serra’s explanation, it’s like a confirmation.
Indeed, compared to majesty, perhaps cuteness is more useful?
Elly thought to herself.
…
“Your Majesty the Queen.”
Lucia entered the Silver Dragon Queen’s office and saluted Xia Lulu.
“Oh, it’s Lucia,” Xia Lulu looked at the stoic royal maid, “Sending you to the human world to buy the single volume of ‘Legend of the Sword Saint’ was really hard work.”
“Your Majesty, these tasks are not difficult, it only takes a trivial amount of money to get the address of the author of ‘Legend of the Sword Saint’, go to his door, use money and intimidation together, and you can make the author hand over the limited single volume.”
“I see, as expected of Lucia, you always satisfy me.”
“However, Your Majesty, I did discover something. I kindly inquired about the author of ‘Legend of the Sword Saint’ and found out that the orphanage he stayed in as a child is the same one as Wright Schubert’s. The Human Sword Saint is actually childhood friends with the author of ‘Legend of the Sword Saint’, but he himself is unaware of this.”
“What a coincidence,” Xia Lulu laughed.
Seeing Xia Lulu’s reaction, Lucia felt strange. Why was the Queen interested in ‘Legend of the Sword Saint’ among so many human-imagined entertainment works?
Even if it was to understand humans through this, it was still strange.
Of course, since Her Majesty wanted it, it was no problem for Lucia.
“How about the other investigations?”
“Reporting to Your Majesty, in human cognition, the Human Sword Saint did not die. After challenging you, he left unscathed and returned to the human world, becoming a hero. But in fact, this is not the case, the Human Sword Saint did indeed die. Therefore, I deduce that an impostor has replaced the dead Human Sword Saint, existing as a spiritual support for humans.”
“Did you investigate the identity of the impostor?”
Lucia bowed her head, “I apologize, Your Majesty, this may involve the secrets of the upper echelons of the Rhine Kingdom, and it is difficult to continue the investigation. Please punish me.”
“Lucia, after all, you are a dragon, not a human. Hiding your identity has already been hard on you. To have gathered so much information is already not easy. If someone else were to execute the mission, they might have exposed their dragon identity due to intolerance of these ordinary species.” Xia Lulu said, “It’s unreasonable for a dragon to imitate a human, no dragon can do it perfectly.”
“I am truly ashamed…”
“But, there really is an impostor…” Xia Lulu murmured.
To abandon the Human Sword Saint and still not forget to continue using the remaining value to fool the public.
The human upper echelons of the Rhine Kingdom really know how to play.
…
Thump!
Xia Yi pushed open the door of her room and rushed in.
“Your Highness, have you returned?”
Serra, holding a rag, was cleaning the windows, tidying up the room.
Now Xia Yi’s face was flushed, and she needed some time alone.
“Serra, go out quickly, let me be alone for a while!!”
“What happened to you, this reaction, could it be, were you bullied?” Serra curiously asked.
“Hurry hurry hurry! I’m going to explode! I’ll blow you up!” Xia Yi shouted anxiously.
“…Alright, then I won’t disturb you for now.”
Serra was somewhat helpless, but seeing Xia Yi’s reaction, she found it interesting. After briefly enjoying the sight for two seconds, she left the room.
Seeing that her personal maid finally left, and she was alone in the room, Xia Yi could vent to her heart’s content.
Xia Yi rushed to the bed, grabbed her little dragon, and started rolling around.
“Ahhhh!! How embarrassing!! Why would Xia Lulu go read comics, and it even had to be ‘Legend of the Sword Saint’!”
“It’s definitely targeting me!”
“It’s all fictional stories, why does it have to fall on me! Don’t let me find out who drew this, otherwise I’ll definitely beat him to death!”
The little princess’s white silk feet, out of embarrassment, flailed in the air.
It was good that she held back until Serra left. If Serra had seen her, her dignity would have been completely lost.
After venting for a while, Xia Yi gradually calmed down.
“Xia Lulu never leaves the Dragon Palace, she definitely didn’t go out to buy comics herself, and this is the latest, limited edition…”
“Could it be Serra? No, if it was Serra, I should have gotten the limited edition too, but I haven’t yet.”
“It must be Lucia.”
Xia Yi thought it over, and it could only be Lucia, the taciturn and stoic maid who always seemed to be engaged in mysterious actions, rarely appearing in the Dragon Palace.
“Since Xia Lulu got the latest edition, she must have read the previous volumes, right? Damn it… so annoying!”
To promote himself, the Schubert family turned Wright’s experiences since his debut into a biography and spread it everywhere.
As a result, many people have adapted this biography into various works, becoming popular everywhere.
Now, her own journey from swordsman to Sword Saint is probably known to Xia Lulu.
She didn’t want to say it, to maintain a sense of mystery.
Forget it!
She also knew about Xia Lulu’s childhood experiences, so consider it even.
“Speaking of which, what’s the plot of the latest comic? I haven’t read it for a while.” Xia Yi took out the comic book, genuinely curious.
Looking at the cover, it was the back of the Human Sword Saint Wright Schubert, protecting a girl, facing countless monsters.
“This girl couldn’t be…”
Xia Yi had a bad feeling in her heart.
She opened the comic book, quickly flipped through, and finally saw the relevant content.
The plot was the Human Sword Saint fighting to the death with a group of monsters to protect his fiancée, and the girl, at the moment she saw the fiancée’s face—
Identical, couldn’t be anyone else.
Xia Yi slammed the book shut, she was stunned, her feelings becoming complicated.
“…It’s really her.”
