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

37. Impostor

A swordsman fully clad in armor appeared before everyone.

This set of armor was all too familiar to Xia Yi.

The style was exactly the same as the armor she had once worn.

This set of armor also appeared in various works circulating throughout the human world.

This set of armor could be said to be one of the symbols of the Human Sword Saint.

In various countries, many swordsmen who idolized the Human Sword Saint would compete to imitate and make the same style of armor.

However, this swordsman’s armor bore a golden medal from the Rhine Kingdom’s royal family.

This indicated that the owner of this armor is none other than the Human Sword Saint.

“It’s the Sword Saint!! Wright Schubert!!”

“Am I dreaming? The Sword Saint actually appeared at our Laurel Academy’s opening ceremony?”

“No way? I never thought that one day I would be able to see the Sword Saint in person!!”

The students at Laurel Academy were all in an uproar.

Whether they were new students or senior students, it had been many years since the Human Sword Saint had appeared at Laurel Academy.

The Human Sword Saint had extremely high popularity in the human world, appealing to people of all ages and genders. Especially among the commoners, who regarded him as a heroic existence.

“How’s that? Impressive, right?” Norma’s gaze was fixed on the Sword Saint. “Xia Yi, that’s Teacher Hill’s teacher!”

However, among the cheering crowd, there was only one person who showed a shaken expression.

That was Xia Yi.

“No…”

Although she had mentally prepared herself, when she truly witnessed this scene, it was still difficult to accept the current situation.

That was the impostor created by the Schubert family to replace her, the false Sword Saint.

Yet at this moment, the fake Sword Saint was receiving the same level of treatment as the real one… Not only the adoration of the people but also the recognition of the Rhine Kingdom’s royal family and all the honors she had created.

“Everyone, I am Wright Schubert from the Schubert family, the wielder of the Holy Sword, the only Sword Bearer in the human world, and also the current Human Sword Saint.”

The Sword Saint stood before the stage and introduced himself, his deep and powerful voice emanating from under his helmet.

Hearing the Sword Saint’s voice, many people became even more excited, confirming that this was indeed the real person.

“It’s the real person, it’s really him!! I’ve heard the broadcast of the Sword Saint’s speech before!”

“What a reassuring voice.”

“Not only does the Sword Saint have a nice voice, but he’s also super handsome in person, even though he doesn’t show his face much. I even bought his photo collection!”

The current atmosphere was truly like a national idol meeting with fans.

The popularity Hill received earlier was nothing compared to this.

Xia Yi snapped back to reality, her expression changing.

Anger!

Impersonating her, using her name, exploiting her identity to deceive others… Thinking about it made Xia Yi unable to contain her anger.

Damn impostor!!

The black-haired loli could no longer suppress her impulse and raised her hand!

As long as she released the Holy Sword Mark here and summoned Gram, everyone would understand… who was the real Human Sword Saint and who was the impostor!

But…

Reason told her she couldn’t do that.

If she acted impulsively, it would only lead to endless trouble.

The little princess restrained herself and didn’t summon the Holy Sword Mark… But she had to express her anger. Manners be damned.

She didn’t lower her hand but instead raised her middle finger towards the Sword Saint above.

At this moment, she felt that it still wasn’t enough to vent her anger, so she raised the middle finger of her other hand as well.

Did you f*cking see that?

F*ck you!

“Hey, what are you doing!!”

Norma, watching nervously at her side, quickly pulled Xia Yi’s hand down.

“Xia Yi, don’t cause trouble!”

If others noticed this, it would be disastrous. Expressing such disrespect towards the Sword Saint… The Lawrence family could be implicated. If Xia Yi committed an offense, the entire Lawrence family would be doomed!

Xia Yi was already like an enraged pufferfish at this point, not listening to Norma’s words at all, and just glaring at the Sword Saint on stage.

“I’m very happy to be invited by Laurel Academy to give a speech to the new students here. It reminds me of many years ago when I also came to Laurel Academy once…”

The Sword Saint spoke eloquently, mentioning past stories and then extending to his stories of fighting against foreign races, revealing many details, trying to inspire the students of Laurel Academy.

He’s clearly just an impostor, yet he was acting as if he was the real one?

Xia Yi couldn’t listen at all.

The other new students, however, were immersed in the Sword Saint’s speech, occasionally erupting into thunderous applause.

“Oh, right!”

Xia Yi’s gaze shifted away from the Sword Saint and found Hill.

She was now somewhat concerned about what kind of reaction Hill would have…

At this moment, Hill was standing on the side like the other teachers… But her expression was different from the other teachers. She had her eyes closed, looking indifferent, as if she didn’t care about the Sword Saint on stage at all.

“Hill, could she… have noticed something amiss?” Xia Yi was somewhat surprised.

Yet she felt a bit happy that even though she couldn’t explain the situation, her student was able to sense the impostor’s abnormality.

As expected of her outstanding student!

Hill suddenly opened her eyes and turned, walking towards the principal.

“Teacher Hill, what’s the matter?” The principal asked.

“I’m sorry, Principal. I’m not feeling well and may need to leave early.”

“Hm? But isn’t the Sword Saint still here?” The principal was a bit puzzled. “Teacher Hill, you’re supposed to be the Sword Saint’s student, right?”

Without even looking at the Sword Saint above, Hill simply said, “Excuse me,” and left.

The principal frowned, watching Hill’s departing back, but didn’t say anything more.

In the end, the Human Sword Saint’s speech ended smoothly.

…

“Sword Saint, this speech was truly a success.”

“Mm.”

The Sword Saint replied indifferently.

The speech had ended, and the Sword Saint should have left. Times had changed, and he had many things to attend to now and couldn’t linger in one place for too long. Accompanied by his entourage, he left Laurel Academy.

“Speaking of which, the Sword Saint’s sister is also in this academy, right? Won’t you go see her?” One of the entourage asked. “You’re usually so busy and don’t have much time to go home. This is a rare opportunity, and Miss Lia didn’t take the initiative to come find you this time…”

“No need. I can’t let such things delay my next schedule.”

“The Sword Saint is really strict in separating public and private matters.” The accompanying staff admired the Sword Saint.

The road ahead had been cleared in advance, and there was no possibility of anyone coming to disturb them… After all, if they didn’t do this, they might be blocked by many people.

Suddenly, the Sword Saint stopped in his tracks.

“What’s wrong, Sword Saint?” The accompanying staff asked in confusion.

“Someone’s there.”

The Sword Saint stared ahead.

The accompanying staff followed the Sword Saint’s gaze and looked forward, stunned. A black-haired twin-tailed loli actually blocked the Sword Saint’s path alone.

Xia Yi walked towards the fake Human Sword Saint. “Hello.”
