22. Your Mom Is Still Your Mom
"Indeed, there are exceptions, Your Highness. There was once a human who accepted the dragon's curse, did not die, and underwent a transformation," Grandmaster Gran narrated slowly.
"Our dragon blood has a strong infectivity. Normally, other races cannot bear the curse in the blood. But there are a few exceptions. These people have a strong resistance to curses. Even if they are cursed, they can survive."
Xia Yi listened, feeling as if she had grasped a lifeline.
So, in history, there were people like her who, after being cursed by the blood of the dragon race, did not die but underwent a transformation.
"Grandmaster Gran, did those people you mentioned turn into the dragon race?"
"Even those few people who have resistance to curses cannot resist the infection of the dragon's curse. Although the curse did not kill them, it caused their bodies to undergo dragonization, losing their minds and becoming monsters that are like dragons but not dragons."
"Grandmaster Gran, are you sure this is true?"
Grandmaster Gran stroked his beard and nodded, "Your Highness, these are all events that happened during the war. The history of other races has been recorded. After being cursed by the dragon's curse, a few exceptions turned into dragon-like monsters, indiscriminately attacking the surrounding life. This made other races very afraid of the dragon's curse and dared not easily come into contact with the dragon race's blood."
Xia Yi felt that this was not what she wanted.
Although her overall situation was similar to those dragonized monsters, she obviously maintained her rationality and became a dragon. There is a difference in essence.
"Grandmaster Gran, isn't there an exception to the exception?"
"Exception to the exception?" Grandmaster Gran was a bit puzzled, "Your Highness, are you referring to the special cases among those dragonized monsters?"
"Is there a possibility that a human being cursed by the blood of the dragon race does not die, maintains rationality, and even becomes a dragon… cough cough!"
Xia Yi shyly hid the last word. She didn't want to arouse Grandmaster Gran's suspicion.
The secret of her own life, only the culprit, the Silver Dragon Queen, knew.
Back then, those guards also saw it, but Xia Lulu didn't know what method she used to wash away the memories of those witnesses.
Therefore, the fact that the little princess was once a human Sword Saint, Grandmaster Gran naturally did not know.
"We dragons are also a superior race. Humans are contaminated by the blood of the dragon race. The best outcome is to become a dragon-like monster and will not retain their rationality." Grandmaster Gran denied.
"It's possible!"
"Your Highness, the strength of our dragon race is beyond doubt. Even if humans obtain the blood of the dragon race and try to transform themselves with so-called wisdom, the final outcome is only madness and destruction. The power of the superior race can only be borne by the superior race." Grandmaster Gran's tone was full of pride.
Xia Yi was a little anxious, "Grandmaster Gran, I am very sure that there must be humans who can bear the power of the dragon race, and even accept the curse of the dragon race will not die, bathed in the blood of the curse, can be reborn as a dragon!"
"Your Highness, the tone of your speech, it seems like you have seen it before?"
On the scene, I am the reborn dragon loli!
Xia Yi almost blurted out this sentence, but fortunately she stopped, otherwise it would be a big deal.
"Grandmaster Gran, can you think about it again?"
"Hmm…"
Seeing how persistent Princess Xia Yi was, Grandmaster Gran couldn't help but ponder for a while, his expression gradually changing.
"It seems, there really was one… an exception among exceptions, who accepted the dragon's curse and became a Dragon Clan member."
"Quick, Grandmaster Gran, think more!"
The old dragon, leaning on his cane, took a few steps to the center of the classroom and began chanting a spell.
Blue runes floated around him, and the bookshelves nearby began to shake slightly. The books seemed to be infused with life, turning into birds and flying in flocks in the classroom.
Grandmaster Gran raised his hand, and amidst the flock of birds, a heavy ancient book fell down, stopping in his hand.
The pages of the ancient book flipped rapidly in Grandmaster Gran's hands, finally stopping on one page. After reading the content, Grandmaster Gran smiled.
"I found it, Your Highness. During the Dragon War in ancient times, a human warrior tried to single-handedly challenge the Dragon King. He failed and was cursed by the Dragon King."
"What happened next?!"
Xia Yi leaned in, looking up at the tall Grandmaster Gran with eyes full of anticipation.
"That human, after receiving the Dragon King's curse, was contaminated by the Dragon King's blood, did not die, and his body was completely changed, astonishingly becoming a Dragon Clan member."
The book in Grandmaster Gran's hand was "Dragon War · Secret History". Because she was too concerned, Xia Yi directly took it into her hands. The history of the Dragon Clan written on it really had such a character.
"The Dragon Clan at that time was surprised by this human's special situation. After all, it was an unprecedented exception. After some consideration, the Dragon King of that generation chose to accept that person, and he also abandoned his human past and joined the Dragon Clan," Grandmaster Gran snorted disdainfully, "However, later…"
The answer, Xia Yi had already seen it in the book.
That dragon was first loyal to the Dragon Clan, made significant contributions in the war, and gained the trust of the Dragon Clan. After the war ended, however, he voluntarily left the Dragon Clan and returned to the human world. What was even more incredible was that he actually lifted the dragon's curse and restored his human identity.
Seeing this, Xia Yi was very excited.
Since there was a human predecessor whose situation was so similar to her own, and in the end, he was able to restore his identity and return to the human race, it means that she can also change back!
This is all written in black and white in the history books of the Dragon Clan, and it is absolutely impossible to deceive people.
Great!!
Suddenly, the clouds of worry in Xia Yi's heart dissipated, and she happily closed the "Dragon War · Secret History".
Humph, Xia Lulu, you still want to deceive me, saying that I can't change back?
"Grandmaster Gran, let's continue the class!"
Xia Yi returned the book.
Grandmaster Gran was puzzled and couldn't figure out the reason for the little princess's mood change, but it didn't matter. As long as she was willing to study magic seriously, there was no problem.
……
"Goodbye, Grandmaster Gran~"
The magic class ended, Xia Yi said goodbye to Grandmaster Gran, humming a song, and left the classroom.
"The princess finished the class seriously for the first time without slacking off, I'm so moved!"
Grandmaster Gran was so moved that he was about to wipe his tears.
As he was packing up his teaching materials, a petite figure stepped into the room.
Although he couldn't immediately see who it was due to the shadows, his body instinctively bowed in respect.
"Your humble servant greets Your Majesty, the Queen."
Grandmaster Gran had long known that the Queen would come to find him at a time when Princess Xia Yi was not present.
"Mm."
Xia Lulu nodded, walked to the place where Xia Yi had just been studying, her fair fingers brushed over the table surface, and she smiled lightly.
"Has everything been arranged?"
Poor guy🤣
