Chapter 80: Sorry
“Miss, you are the 13th Imperial Princess of the current Sigril Empire, Her Highness Xuelian Kergathis, undoubtedly the pride of the heavens.” Yuehai answered with a respectful and pleasing tone, but Xuelian remained unconvinced, continuing with a cold expression, “Then do you know why, as an Imperial Princess, I would come to such a remote little country?”
“?” Yuehai blinked her eyes, tentatively answering, “Isn’t it because of Duke Falexis’s birthday banquet?”
“Falexis? What’s he even worth?” Xuelian’s eyes widened as she spoke, her expression cute but the disdain in her eyes was unmistakable.
“Impressive. Truly worthy of an Imperial Princess.” Yuehai silently praised in her mind, realizing that even a dignified duke like Falexis could be disregarded so easily. Perhaps only royal relatives could achieve such a feat. However, Xuelian’s attitude was a complete turnaround, vastly different from her previous impression.
“Hey, Miss Yuehai.” Xuelian startled Yuehai, who seemed a bit absent-minded, and continued, “Surely you’re aware that I’m Claude’s fiancée, right?”
“Claude… hmm, I think I’ve heard about that.” Yuehai rubbed her chin, as if recalling something she had overheard from servants not long ago. Seeing Yuehai’s continued nonchalant demeanor, Xuelian’s expression darkened.
“Then why are you still with Claude now? Knowing that I’m his fiancée.”
“Huh? Why not?”
“You… You!” Xuelian’s face grew even darker, feeling a strong sense of insult from Yuehai’s tone. Who did she think she was? The current Imperial Princess. How dare someone speak to her like this? And to think, if Claude were truly taken away by such a woman… she couldn’t even imagine it. This filled her with an indescribable rage!
“You… you stinky **!!!” The echo of her voice reverberated, leaving almost everyone staring in astonishment at this beautiful girl erupting in anger. After all, such a scene was extremely rare.
“Stinky, stinky **?” Yuehai stepped back in the water, overwhelmed by Xuelian’s momentum. She finally understood how Tiska felt when Dragon Slayer cursed him. Yuehai’s mind went blank for a moment, and it took her a while to grasp the meaning of those three words.
However, Xuelian persisted and took two large steps forward, pressing her ** 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 as she continued, “Do you think I joined the Magical Girl Contest for? Isn’t it just to see if Claude really got hooked up with you, you **!”
“**…?”
“Shut up!” Another fierce shout erupted from Xuelian’s delicate lips.
“I never expected that after not seeing Claude for two years, there would be a scheming person trying to seize the opportunity. Who do you think you are? With just a bit of looks, do you think you can overturn everything by sleeping with Claude a few times?”
“Onion… sleeping together?”
“Shut up! Let me tell you, Claude is mine, always and forever! His body and heart will always belong to me, and no one can take him away. Don’t think just because you’re a disciple of Grandpa Laogeri, I won’t dare to lay a hand on you. Anyone who hinders me and Claude, even if they’re gods, will never be forgiven!”
“Do you think I don’t know who you are? You’re just a petty thief who happened to be rescued by Claude, pretending to be a damsel in distress! You rely on some talent and were pitied by Grandpa Laogeri to become his disciple. And now you’re even shamelessly inviting Claude to be your partner for the competition. If it were Claude, he would have beaten you half to death long ago and dragged you to the dungeon to be tortured until your dying day!”
“Um, Miss Xuelian.” Yuehai covered her nose, showing a remorseful expression, then said, “I’m sorry.”
Bang! Blood gushed out, staining Xuelian’s entire face with red liquid. Yuehai wiped her nose, which had been bleeding continuously, and couldn’t help but sneak a glance at Xuelian. “I’ve never been able to soak in hot baths since I was little. If I soak for too long, I’ll have nosebleeds.”
“．．．．．．” Xuelian remained silent, her face dark as she turned and walked away. The intimidating aura from earlier seemed to vanish completely. Yuehai, still trembling with fear, patted her chest. After all, Xuelian’s sudden closeness had truly startled her. Her excitement had already been at its peak, and finally, it burst out completely.
“But Xuelian’s skin is really delicate. By the way, what did she just say?”
“The organization known as the 【Azure Court】 is surely well-known to many. Its origins trace back to a long time ago, but during the recent turmoil in the capital, approximately ten dominators and over a hundred disciples appeared, divided into three ranks within: the dominators, the disciples, and the assistants. The capital’s upheaval is not so distant from today, and even the older generation may have heard of the unrest at that time. Whether it was the emergence of the 【Heavenly Demon’s Lair】 or the attacks from the anti-Imperial organization 【G】, it all made the chaotic capital even more tumultuous!” Laogeri talked eloquently, but in reality, he didn’t reveal the true history. After all, if he were to say that during the capital’s turmoil, the 【Azure Court】 only had two dominators and a few disciples, it might raise doubts about the strength of the Empire among those who paid attention. This was not the outcome Laogeri desired.
