Chapter 80: Apologies
“Miss is the thirteenth imperial princess of the current Empire of Sigril, Princess Xuelian Kergathis, undoubtedly the proud daughter of heaven.” Yuehai tried to answer as respectfully and pleasingly as possible, but Xuelian remained unimpressed, continuing to ask with a cold expression.
“Do you know why as an imperial princess like me, I have to come to such a remote little country?”
“?” Yuehai blinked his eyes, responding cautiously.
“Isn’t it because of Duke Cyril’s banquet?”
“Falexis? He’s just a minor figure,” Xuelian said, her eyes narrowing, though she looked adorable, the thick disdain was clearly conveyed.
“Wow, impressive, truly fitting for the princess. Duke Yuehai seems completely indifferent even with such momentum. It seems only those of royal lineage can manage that. But Xuelian’s attitude is like a complete 180-degree turn, completely different from before.”
“Hey, Miss Yuehai.” Xuelian interrupted Yuehai, who seemed a bit lost in thought, and spoke again.
“Don’t you know that I am Claude’s fiancee?”
“Claude… hmm, I think I’ve heard about that.” Yuehai rubbed his chin, seeming to recall a recent conversation with a servant. Seeing Yuehai still appearing completely indifferent, Xuelian couldn’t help but frown.
“Then why are you still with Claude? Knowing well that I am his fiancee.”
“Ah? Why can’t it be?”
“You, you…” Xuelian’s face grew darker, feeling deeply insulted by Yuehai’s tone. Who was she? The current imperial princess, and yet someone dared to speak to her like this. Thinking about the possibility of Claude being taken away by such a woman… she couldn’t imagine it, and this made her furious!
“You despicable **!!!”
Her voice echoed out, leaving almost everyone stunned as they watched this beautiful girl unleash her fury, after all, such a sight was extremely rare.
“Despicable, despicable **?” Yuehai stepped back in the water, overwhelmed by Xuelian’s momentum. She finally understood how Tiska felt when Dragon Slayer called her despicable **, but Yuehai’s mind went blank for a while and she couldn’t grasp the meaning of those three words.
However, Xuelian persisted, taking two big steps forward and pressing ** directly against Yuehai’s chest. Their faces were so close that they could feel each other’s breath.
“Wow wow wow wow wow wow.”
“Shut up!” Xuelian’s expression remained dark, and she continued,
“What do you think I came to participate in the Magical Girl Contest for? Isn’t it to see if Claude has really been seduced by ** like you!”
“Bitch, ......?”
“Shut up!” Xuelian’s voice rang out once again, fierce and commanding.
“I didn’t expect that after not seeing Claude for two years, there would be someone with ulterior motives trying to take advantage. Who do you think you are? Just because you have some looks, you think you can change the world by sleeping with Claude a few times!”
“Onion…in bed?”
“Shut up! Let me tell you, Claude is mine, always and forever! His body, his heart, they belong to me and no one can take them away. Don’t think just because you’re Grandpa Laogeri’s disciple I won’t dare to lay a hand on you. Anyone who obstructs me and Claude, even if they’re gods, will never be forgiven!”
“Do you think I don’t know who you are? A scoundrel who pretended to be a robber, happened to be saved by Claude, the hero! Relying on some talent, you were pitied by Grandpa Laogeri and taken in as his disciple. Now you’ve even invited Claude as your partner for the competition. If I were Claude, I would have beaten you half to death and dragged you to the death row, tormenting you until your natural end!”
“Um, Miss Xuelian.” Yuehai covered her nose, showing an apologetic expression, then said, “I’m sorry.”
“Peng!” Blood sprayed out, staining Xuelian’s entire face with red liquid. Yuehai wiped her nose, which had been bleeding all along, and couldn’t help but sneak a glance at Xuelian.
“I’ve never been able to take hot baths since I was young. If I soak too long, I’ll get a nosebleed.”
“......” Xuelian remained silent, with a stern face, then turned and walked away. The momentum from just now seemed to have vanished as if it had never existed. Yuehai patted her chest with lingering fear. After all, Xuelian’s sudden approach had really startled her. Her excitement had caused her blood to rush, and it finally burst out at the end.
“But Miss Xuelian’s skin is really tender. By the way, what did she just say?”
“【Garden of Azure】This organization is undoubtedly well-known. Its origins trace back to a long time ago, but this time during the turmoil in the imperial capital, around ten Dominators and over a hundred disciples appeared. Within the organization, they are divided into three levels: Dominators, disciples, and assistants.
The turmoil in the imperial capital is not too distant from us now. Perhaps the older generation has heard about the commotion at that time. Whether it was the towering presence of the 【Heavenly Demon Abyss】 or the onslaught of the anti-imperial organization 【G】, it made the once chaotic imperial capital even more turbulent!” Laogeri spoke confidently. In reality, he did not reveal the true history, as during the turmoil in the imperial capital, 【Garden of Azure】only had two Dominators and a few disciples. Revealing this might lead some to question the empire’s strength, and that was not the outcome Laogeri desired.
