"I have so many expectations and so many regrets, do you know that?"
"I'm sorry for being born a dragon."
"Is it cute? I paid for it with my life."
The girl with long silver hair sat on a tall tree, raised her head at a forty-five degree angle, and looked up at the starry sky, her silver eyes showing a hint of sadness.
And below, Sera, the personal maid, was troubled by Xia Yi's emo time.
My little princess has been acting very strange recently. Ever since she woke up that morning, she has always looked confused and had a lot on her mind.
Especially after midnight every night, she would find a quiet place to be alone, muttering some incomprehensible lines, and start her emo time.
Even though Sera used many methods, she was unable to get the reason why Xia Yi became like this.
These days, Xia Yi's mood changes are so strange, just like schizophrenia. She is one way in the morning and another way in the evening.
As a maid, she was unable to share the little princess' worries and could only watch silently from the side, which made Sera feel that she had failed in her duty.
"What happened to your highness, Princess?"
“This is a normal phase.”
A voice replied to Sera.
She was surprised and looked to the side, "Sister?"
"Um."
Lucia, who was also a maid of the royal family, nodded expressionlessly.
"I saw you in the corridor just now, secretly following someone. I was a little concerned, so I came over to take a look."
"Sister, the little princess has been acting so strange lately. Do you have any advice?"
Sera turned to her sister for help. Although they had very different personalities, the two sisters had a pretty good relationship.
"Isn't that what puberty is like? Take you for example," Lucia replied.
"ah……?"
"Who would have thought that Sera, an excellent royal maid, was actually a——"
"Sister, don't talk nonsense, I didn't!"
Sera covered Lucia's mouth very embarrassedly.
"What have I done before? What does it have to do with the little princess?"
"I'm just saying that changes during puberty come very quickly. You may become a completely different person overnight," Lucia explained. "Those are just appearances. Your inner self won't change. Just like you, you became a good girl after being taught a lesson."
"We just need to trust Her Highness the Princess. After all, we are just maids. We just need to watch over Her Highness the Princess."
"All right."
Sera had no other choice but to do this.
At this time, Xia Yi's attention was not on the things below. She was not aware that the two sisters were talking, but her thoughts were drifting away.
She is very troubled now and doesn't know what to do.
she used to be a dragon slayer and a swordsman of the human race. In theory, she was an enemy of the dragon clan, and an even more mortal enemy of the Silver Dragon Queen, Xia Lulu.
But now she has become the daughter of Xia Lulu and the princess of the dragon clan.
The current human swordsman is also regarded as an abandoned child and is ruthlessly abandoned. Even if she wants to go back, her former family will not accept her.
Instead, it was Xia Lulu, her former mortal enemy, who gave her a place to stay...
Is there anything more ridiculous than this in the world? !
On the one hand, she feels like a human swordsman, and on the other hand, she feels like a dragon princess. The two emotions are intertwined. She feels unhappy with Xia Lulu, but she also likes her very much.
"Damn it! Can anyone tell me what to do in this situation?"
…
The break was over and Xia Yi had to go back to class.
These past few days, she had not been like she used to be. She did not go to look for Xia Lulu at night, but deliberately avoided her.
Although this made Xia Yi feel a little lonely...
What would it be like if I were to stick to my mortal enemy all day?
Don't indulge your heart and don't fall into depravity!
Even though she thought so, she did not take any concrete action and spent the past few days in a daze.
"Your Highness, could you please repeat what I just said?"
An old voice with a hint of anger questioned Xia Yi.
Xia Yi raised her head and saw an elderly white-haired dragon man who was adjusting his glasses and looked a little angry.
He is Xia Yi's magic teacher, and also a most experienced magician among the dragon clan - Master Gran.
Xia Yi then remembered that she was still in class and had been daydreaming again.
"Your Highness, could you please repeat what I said?"
"What the hell is this? Princess, you haven't been serious in class since the beginning of today. Do you think magic is no longer useful?" Gran was so angry that he blew his beard and glared.
"No."
"But you won the last royal trial by using swordsmanship to defeat the puppet giant," Master Gran seemed to be getting angry. "If you had studied the forbidden techniques with me seriously, the result would not be like this. Now the dragons are beginning to doubt my magic teachings!"
It turns out that Master Gran cares about this.
Xia Yi understood.
In fact, Master Gran is indeed very capable and has tapped into a lot of Xia Yi's magical talents. But she usually just likes to show off. Relying on her royal bloodline, she thinks she can have excellent combat capabilities just by learning casually, and she has basically never studied seriously.
"Swordsmanship is too barbaric. I will prove that only elegant spells are better!" Gran kept muttering, full of resentment. "Please don't continue to learn swordsmanship!"
Xia Yi looked at Gran and gradually remembered something.
This dragon can be regarded as a living fossil of the dragon clan. Its lifespan is much longer than that of ordinary dragons. It has witnessed a lot of history and has extremely profound knowledge.
Maybe it can answer the doubts in her mind.
"Master Gran!"
"What's wrong?"
Master Gran was quite surprised to see that the princess, who had been slacking off, suddenly became very alert. The little princess had never been so active in class before.
"I will study magic well. I always think magic is the best!"
"Of course!" The old dragon laughed and thought, Her Royal Highness the Princess has finally gotten it!
"But before that, I have some questions for you."
"What's the problem?"
"Do you understand the curse of the dragons?"
"The curse of the dragon clan?"
Grand stroked his beard proudly.
"I am not a talented person, but I have studied it a few years ago and I know a thing or two."
Xia Yi opened her eyes wide, "If other foreign races, such as the human race, were cursed by the dragon race, would they surely die?"
"Of course. The dragon's curse is extremely powerful. How can ordinary foreign races withstand it? They will basically die. In the distant past, in the war between the dragon race and all the races in the world, countless strong people died from the dragon's curse. This makes all the races in the world extremely afraid of our dragon race."
"Is death the only outcome?" Xia Yi continued to ask.
"no."
Gran's next answer really surprised Xia Yi.
