LIGHTNOVELWORLD Volume 1 Chapter 11
11. I Won’t Be Corrupted!
Silver Dragon Queen, Xia Lulu · Christie.
She was a descendant of the extremely rare Silver Dragon clan among the dragons, possessing an indisputable royal bloodline, the Dragon King ruling over the dragon race.
She is the main culprit behind the corruption of the Human Sword Saint Wright into a dragon.
Although, well, the act of challenging the dragons in the first place was quite foolish, putting aside the facts, even if the Human Sword Saint was 99% at fault, was the Silver Dragon Queen completely blameless?
It was this wicked woman who actually turned me into a little dragoness to play a raising sim game!
Is there no justice? Is there no law?
Thinking of this, Xia Yi became furious.
“Sera, you may leave for now. It seems my dear daughter is not in a very good mood right now,” Xia Lulu said.
“As you command, Your Majesty.”
As Sera withdrew, she even deliberately smiled and winked at Xia Yi, looking especially proud of herself for her meritorious deed.
This left Xia Yi utterly speechless. She clearly didn’t want to see this person the most right now, yet Sera took it upon herself to find her archenemy…
Forget it, this is perfect. I’ll settle the score with Xia Lulu.
After the royal maid exited Xia Yi’s bedroom and closed the door, only the mother and daughter, Xia Lulu and Xia Yi, were left.
“Xia Yi, I heard from Sera that you’ve been crying all morning for some reason.”
Xia Lulu was now dressed in casual attire. She seemed to have the day off and didn’t need to work, so she lacked her usual imposing aura.
A white blouse, a black high-waisted skirt, over-the-knee black stockings, her silver hair tied into a bunch of butterfly knots, her twin tails over her shoulders making her look especially cute… She appeared to be a girl around Xia Yi’s age, in the beautiful prime of her youth—
As if.
Xia Yi knew that Xia Lulu was at least a few hundred years old. How could she be deceived by her appearance?
“Xia Yi, you’ve been staring at me like that. Do I look strange in this outfit?” Xia Lulu seemed a bit puzzled.
“No, I think Mother looks very beautiful. I really like this style—Mmph!”
Xia Yi hurriedly covered her mouth.
Damn it, I accidentally spoke my true thoughts…
No, that’s not right, these aren’t my true thoughts. How could I possibly compliment the vile dragon who turned me into one of her kind!!
Get it together! This isn’t the time to act cute like usual!
Xia Yi clenched her little hands into fists, silently cheering herself on in her mind, adjusting her breathing, brewing for a while before speaking: “Enough!! Xia Lulu, I’m tired of this boring game. Hurry up and change me back, or else I’ll give you some color see see!!”
“……”
Xia Lulu was taken aback by Xia Yi’s words, blinking thoughtfully.
Xia Yi started smiling. Success, she finally intimidated this woman. The momentum was excellent. If she continued negotiating like this…
“Xia Yi, as the Dragon Princess, you mustn’t speak in such a tone,” Xia Lulu’s expression turned stern. “I don’t recall raising you to be such an ill-mannered daughter.”
“Eh… Ah? Is that so…”
Faced with Xia Lulu’s oppressive gaze, Xia Yi’s heart was instantly filled with remorse.
Indeed, she was the Dragon Princess, inheriting the royal bloodline. She must always maintain her elegance and dignity. Her earlier words were truly too unbecoming!
The little Silver Dragon Princess immediately turned meek, shrinking her head, not knowing where to put her hands.
“S-Sorry, Mother.”
Xia Lulu sighed lightly and walked to Xia Yi’s side, sitting on the bed, asking with some sadness: “Xia Yi, are you starting to hate me?”
“No way, how could I possibly hate Mother?” Xia Yi anxiously clarified, “That’s impossible!”
But then, she realized something was off…
Wasn’t Xia Lulu supposed to be her enemy? She shouldn’t be saying this, right?
The correct thing to do should be—
However, Xia Lulu didn’t give Xia Yi a chance to think further. She embraced her daughter, letting her nestle against herself.
Xia Yi felt a faint fragrance and warmth, this overly familiar sense of security causing her to let down her guard completely.
“You’re really hopeless. It seems Xia Yi is still at an age where she likes to act spoiled.”
Xia Lulu brushed aside Xia Yi’s silver bangs and left a light kiss on her forehead.
“Don’t think about those unhappy things. You are you, the Dragon Princess, Xia Yi.”
“Mm.”
Xia Yi’s face turned red as she simply responded to Xia Lulu, the corners of her mouth curving into a smile.
“You’re finally smiling, Xia Yi. This is when you’re the cutest,” Xia Lulu stroked Xia Yi’s silver hair.
“N-No… I’m not happy because of this.”
The little Silver Dragon Princess’s tail wagged behind her, too obvious, betraying her current mood.
“Xia Yi, I know yesterday’s events made you a bit tired, but there’s no doubt you’re the daughter I’m always proud of. You can rest assured about that,” Xia Lulu stood up. “I’ll be in the palace garden all day today. If Xia Yi misses me, you can come find me anytime.”
“Okay, Mother…”
Xia Yi obediently nodded.
Seeing that her daughter’s mood had finally improved, Xia Lulu also felt relieved. After saying goodbye to Xia Yi, she left the room.
Even after Xia Lulu had been gone for a while, Xia Yi was still touching her forehead, giggling foolishly.
Ehehe… Mother praised me so much, I’m so happy!
With only her in the room, Xia Yi’s laughter gradually faded, and her expression slowly froze.
“Damn it!! What did that woman mean just now, treating me like a stupid loli?!”
Xia Yi suddenly stood up and looked at herself in the mirror, fuming with anger.
How did she let herself be led by the other party’s pace the entire time?
“No, I’m a Sword Saint with a firm will. I absolutely can’t continue like this, or else I’ll really fall and become a dragon!! Holy Sword! Gram!!”
The silver-haired loli raised her hand and loudly called out to her sword. The Holy Sword’s mark on her hand lit up, and a sacred sword radiating with light appeared in her hand.
“Ugh… It’s heavy!”
Xia Yi gripped the Holy Sword with both hands. She originally used it as a one-handed sword, but due to her current height of not even 1.5 meters and her small stature, she could only use it as a two-handed sword.
But it didn’t matter!
Holding her exclusive Holy Sword, Xia Yi’s mind also calmed down. She seemed to have regained some of her past feelings. She could swear… From now on, she would definitely not succumb to the dragon race mentality that Xia Lulu had cultivated in her.
The silver-haired loli’s gaze was extremely resolute, filled with fighting spirit.
“Silver Dragon Queen, Xia Lulu · Christie… How dare you look down on me? I’ll take back all this humiliation!!”
