Is It Funny That The Dragon Slayer Failed And Became The Dragon Princess?

31. Flash Twice (3k)

“Ugh…”

Xia Yi woke up from her sleep.

She was in a slightly poor state, feeling dazed all over, as if she had a hangover. Lifting the covers, she staggered to the mirror.

Reflected in the mirror was a black-haired, black-eyed human loli, not a silver-haired, silver-eyed dragon princess.

“Phew, that should be fine.”

Xia Yi breathed a sigh of relief.

Actually, she had taken a transformation potion.

The transformation potion was a secret method Xia Yi had obtained herself, hiding it from Xia Lulu, from her very similar senior—Monet, and then concocted this special alchemical potion.

It could turn the silver dragon Xia Yi into a human.

However, the transformation potion was not perfect. Its effect was not permanent and could only be maintained for a period of time.

Once the effect of the transformation potion wore off, the user would revert to their original form.

Previously, Xia Yi noticed that the ends of her hair had changed from black to silver… So she immediately returned to her room and took the transformation potion to maintain her human state.

Although there were some minor flaws, it wasn’t a big problem. As long as Xia Yi took the transformation potion in time, there would definitely be no risk of exposure!

It was currently late at night, and there was no one else around…

Xia Yi raised her hand and activated the Holy Sword Mark.

Answer my call, Gram!

Under the Sword Saint’s summons, the Holy Sword appeared.

“Old friend, come out for some fresh air!”

Xia Yi held the Holy Sword and happily communicated with it.

Although the Holy Sword couldn’t speak, it would respond to its master’s actions and words to a certain extent. Unlike other legendary holy weapons, it possessed self-awareness.

“You haven’t come out for a long time. I’m really sorry. The situation is special now, and like before, I can’t let you appear freely.”

The Holy Sword flashed once.

Xia Yi opened the window. “Old friend, look! We’re back in the human world now. This is the air of the Rhine Kingdom. Doesn’t it bring back memories?”

“By the way, don’t be too surprised. I’m currently using a human identity! How about it? Do I now give you a familiar feeling, like the former Human Sword Saint?! Does it remind you of the days when we fought side by side and adventured everywhere to become stronger?”

A smile bloomed on the black-haired loli’s face, already immersed in past memories.

“Don’t worry. Once I complete my goal and go back to stick to… Ah no, I misspoke. I mean, once I defeat Xia Lulu, become stronger, surpass her, and overcome this hurdle, we can return to the human world with our heads held high. Then, using the transformation potion, I’ll completely revert to my original form!”

“…”

“Old friend, can you give me some reaction?” Xia Yi asked.

The Holy Sword flashed twice randomly, extremely perfunctory.

“Wh-What’s with that attitude? I’m sincerely communicating with you! I’m telling you my future plans. Shouldn’t you show more excitement and express your full support and trust in me?”

Xia Yi got angry!

The little princess puffed out her cheeks.

The Holy Sword disappeared, clearly not wanting to listen any further.

“What? I’m reminiscing with you, and this is how you treat me? I’ll remember this. Don’t even think about coming out for air in the future!!”

Xia Yi hurriedly controlled the Holy Sword Mark, fading it away.

Hmph.

This Holy Sword…

She thought about it. She indeed couldn’t casually display the Holy Sword in front of others. This was the most favorable evidence… It was an iron-clad fact, telling others that she was the Human Sword Saint.

The Schubert family deliberately created a fake Sword Saint, using a counterfeit to achieve the goal of fabricating a false hero.

If they knew that the real Wright Schubert was still alive, they wouldn’t sit idly by.

At that time, she might not be able to complete the task Xia Lulu had given her.

However, there were no major problems at the moment. Her current goal was to enter Laurel Academy and obtain the gift Xia Lulu had prepared for her.

“Speaking of which, tomorrow morning should be the day to set off for enrollment.” Xia Yi glanced at the calendar. “Tonight, I’ll prepare well.”

…

The next day.

Xia Yi arrived at the entrance of the Lawrence family’s manor.

She had already changed into the Laurel Academy uniform, her smooth black hair tied into twintails. She wore the iconic Laurel Academy uniform, including a black pleated skirt and over-the-knee white stockings.

In any case, it suited Xia Yi very well, highlighting the cuteness of a youthful girl.

Speaking of which, this is her first time wearing a uniform.

Strictly speaking, Wright had never formally attended an academy. In the Schubert family, he received elite private tutoring. After completing his studies and passing the Sword Saint’s trial, he began his training. The youthful academy life was something the Human Sword Saint had no connection with.

But who would have thought that the young man from over a decade ago would turn into… a loli.

Xia Yi really didn’t expect that as a student, the first time she wore an academy uniform would be a skirted one!

This really made her… feel complicated.

“Good morning, Miss Xia Yi.”

Xia Yi heard a slightly embarrassed greeting.

Looking up, she found that it was none other than Norma.

“Are you really wearing a maid outfit?” Xia Yi widened her eyes. “Norma, you seem to really enjoy being a maid, huh?”

At this moment, Norma wasn’t wearing the Laurel Academy uniform but the maid outfit that Xia Yi had specially tailored for her before.

Laurel Academy didn’t have particularly strict requirements for students’ attire… But most students would choose the uniform because Laurel Academy had a renowned reputation, and many felt proud to be able to enter it.

Therefore, hearing Xia Yi’s words, Norma almost lost her temper.

“What? Weren’t you the one who told me to wear it? I’m not wearing the Laurel Academy uniform!!”

“Oh, it seems that’s really the case.”

Xia Yi remembered that she had indeed instructed her before.

“Never mind, then.”

“…”

Norma felt the gazes of the servants and was almost too ashamed to show her face. Even after several days, she still hadn’t gotten used to it.

“It suits you quite well. Let’s set off. It’s time to go to Laurel Academy.” Xia Yi said.

You also look quite suitable.

When Norma saw Xia Yi wearing the student uniform, this thought popped into her mind.

After all, Xia Yi is a very cute girl. When she put on the student uniform, it was a perfect combination.

But who could have known that this seemingly harmless and adorable loli could be so mischievous?

She even turned her into a maid.

Even though my goal is to become a knight!

Norma had a belly full of grievances, but she couldn’t voice them and could only endure.

…

Xia Yi and Norma rode in a magic beast-drawn carriage, heading towards Laurel Academy.

Laurel Academy is located in the northern part of the Rhine Kingdom, in the central region of the land

Although Laurel Academy was within the Rhine Kingdom, its history was even more ancient than the kingdom itself. It consisted of a huge city called Laurel City, where Laurel Academy enjoyed autonomy.

The origins of Laurel Academy could no longer be traced, and it held many secrets.

However, from the past to the present, the students who graduated from Laurel Academy were talented, with many leaving their names in the history of this land, making it quite famous.

Even besides humans, there would be some foreign races entering Laurel Academy to study.

“I see, the history of Laurel Academy…”

Xia Yi flipped through the freshman handbook in the carriage.

Suddenly, she thought of something, put down the handbook, and looked at Norma.

“What is it, Miss Xia Yi?”

“When we’re outside, you don’t need to call me Miss. Just call me by my name.” Xia Yi smiled.

“I understand, Xia Yi.”

“Is it true that foreign races study at Laurel Academy?” Xia Yi asked.

“Yes, although not as many as us humans, there are indeed foreign races.”

Xia Yi directly threw out a sharp question, “Then why aren’t there any dragons studying there?”

Norma frowned. “Humans and dragons are like fire and water, we can’t coexist peacefully.”

“Isn’t Laurel Academy an autonomous region?”

“Yes, but in the end, Laurel Academy is still within the sphere of influence of the Rhine Kingdom and has frequent interactions with our country, naturally leaning towards the Rhine Kingdom’s stance. There’s no possibility of any association with the dragons… You could say that aside from the dragons, there are more or less connections with other races, but there has never been a dragon attending in Laurel Academy’s history.”

“Oh, I see.”

It was about the same as what Xia Yi knew.

The Dragon Kingdom had never sent dragons to study at Laurel Academy.

“Xia Yi, why are you asking such a strange question? We humans and dragons simply can’t coexist peacefully. This is common sense, right? The dragons are trying their best to exterminate us.” Norma asked curiously.

“Nothing, just asking casually. Oh, by the way, I have another question…”

Afterward, Xia Yi asked several more irrelevant questions, diverting the topic. Norma’s attention was shifted, and she didn’t think too deeply about it.

Through her conversation with Norma, Xia Yi also roughly understood that Laurel Academy’s attitude towards dragons was unfriendly.

…

Today was Laurel Academy’s enrollment day.

Therefore, there would be many students present, and among them were no shortage of royalty and nobility.

Minor regional nobles like the Lawrence family were far from being noteworthy here.

After arriving in Laurel City, Xia Yi got off the magic beast-drawn carriage and recognized many distinguished individuals, even able to identify some families based on her memory.

“Let’s go. Today is the freshman orientation day. We’d better not be late, Xia Yi.” Norma reminded.

“Mm.”

Xia Yi nodded.

She followed behind Norma, heading towards Laurel Academy. Before reaching the main gate, before even stepping inside, she heard a voice.

“Xia Yi, we meet again.”
