Volume 6 Chapter 122
by Golden DragonVolume 6 + Chapter 122: Unable To Laugh
“Hey~ Human Envoy, can you hear me?”
A girl’s voice came from the Human Envoy’s communicator.
Xia Yi froze. She felt like she had heard this voice somewhere before, but she couldn’t recall who it was at the moment…
“Human Envoy, not there?”
The mysterious girl was clearly trying to converse with the Human Envoy through the communication device. Judging by her tone, she probably knew the Human Envoy.
“What’s going on with you? I see that you’ve been stuck at Molent City all night, and you still haven’t finished your work? That shouldn’t be. You’ve always prioritized efficiency,” the mysterious girl asked, puzzled.
“Xia Yi, what’s going on?”
Heart Demon Xia Yi questioned Xia Yi.
“Is this someone the Human Envoy knows?”
“Ugh…”
Xia Yi looked utterly dumbfounded. She cast a bewildered glance at Heart Demon Xia Yi, as if saying four words…
I have no idea!
How was she supposed to know who this was?
“Human Envoy? Report your work progress. If you’ve run into trouble, report it quickly. Don’t just stay silent.”
The mysterious girl was growing impatient.
Xia Yi didn’t answer immediately. She was thinking.
Since the Human Envoy was one of the three Envoys, his status was presumably second only to the Queen’s. Someone who could speak to him in this tone was probably of the same rank, in other words, another Envoy!
“Human Envoy, could it be… that your mission has failed?”
The mysterious girl’s tone changed.
“The person using the communicator right now , you’re not the Human Envoy, are you?”
“Xia Yi, do something!” Heart Demon Xia Yi urged. “We’re about to be discovered!”
Xia Yi was also very anxious. Then, suddenly, she had a stroke of inspiration. She pulled out the Human King Armor’s Golden Key.
Although her combat energy had been nearly depleted after last night’s battle, some time had passed and it should have recovered a bit.
Even if only a little remained, she could still use some low-energy functions.
She summoned just the helmet, put it on her head, and activated the voice modulator, imitating the Human Envoy’s voice.
“Is there something? I’m carrying out a cleanup mission.”
“…”
The other end of the communication device fell silent after hearing the imitated voice, no longer speaking.
Xia Yi’s heart rose to her throat, pounding fiercely.
Had the other party… seen through her?
Just as she was about to give up, she heard a cheerful voice.
“Well, you’re still alive and kicking. I really thought something had happened to you, Human Envoy.”
Thank goodness!
A smile appeared on Xia Yi’s face. The other party hadn’t noticed the disguise.
It had to be said, this function of the Human King Armor was truly outstanding.
Even Xia Yi’s little-girl loli voice could be transformed, the greater the input, the greater the output.
Interacting with other people probably wouldn’t get her to the truth behind this world, but interacting with an Envoy certainly could. She might even get to see the Queen.
“The meeting location has been sent. Come over soon.”
A flashing red dot appeared on the communication device, indicating the direction.
“I’ve received it, but I won’t be able to get there very quickly.”
Xia Yi suppressed her excitement and replied in a calm, unruffled tone.
“What’s wrong?”
“In Molent City, I encountered an extremely troublesome enemy. Fighting her drained all the Human King Armor’s energy.”
“Hmm? What data could be strong enough to fight an Envoy?” The mysterious girl was confused.
“Not data. She was an outsider who crossed through the Queen’s barrier into Molent City. But I’ve already killed her.”
“Oh, that’s right. There was indeed someone who crossed the Queen’s barrier alive. Timing-wise, they were in Molent City. For her to force you to show your true strength, she must have been quite capable,” the mysterious girl replied.
Xia Yi smiled. Just as she had thought , she had to mix truth into lies to make the lies more believable.
If she had tried to fob the other party off with any other excuse, she could easily have been exposed.
“That’s it for now, Human Envoy. Come over soon.”
Leaving these words, the mysterious girl cut off the communication.
“Phew…”
Xia Yi took off her helmet and sighed with relief.
“Not bad, Xia Yi. You actually managed to fool her,” Heart Demon Xia Yi said. “Then let’s head to the location marked on the communication device.”
“The problem is how to get there…” Xia Yi looked troubled.
“Can’t you do it like the Human Envoy did?”
“No, I can’t.” Xia Yi shook her head.
“That really is a bit of a problem… Hey!”
Heart Demon Xia Yi remembered something.
“Aren’t you a dragon now? Just fly there. Why use the Human King Armor at all!”
“Ugh… Heart Demon, are you doing this on purpose?” Xia Yi made a pained face.
“What? On purpose?” Heart Demon Xia Yi tilted her head. “Unleash your true dragon form, and then you can fly, right?”
“Have you ever unleashed your true dragon form before?”
“No, I haven’t.”
“Not even once?”
“Not once. Why would I unleash my true dragon form? If I turned into a giant dragon, wouldn’t that make it inconvenient to fight with the Holy Sword?”
“A giant dragon… so all this time you thought it was a giant dragon?” Xia Yi covered her face and sighed.
“Hurry up and unleash it, fly there!”
“Fine, no choice then. True dragon form, unleash!”
Xia Yi unleashed her true dragon form. Before Heart Demon Xia Yi appeared a cute little silver dragon.
“Ah? That’s your true dragon form?”
Heart Demon Xia Yi was stunned for a moment, then doubled over with laughter.
“Hahaha, hahahaha! What’s wrong with you, Xia Yi? Why is your true dragon form like a little kitten? It’s not a giant dragon at all!!”
“Yeah, I’m a young dragon.”
Xia Yi might have denied it or made excuses in front of others, but in front of her heart demon, she admitted it openly.
Heart Demon Xia Yi laughed and laughed, then her smile gradually froze as she realized something.
If Xia Yi was a little silver dragon, then of course she herself would also be…
“M-My true dragon form… is like this too?!”
