108. The Game
Had a full meal~
Really comfortable.
Xia Yi lay on the small bed that Sera had moved over, happily stretching her body.
"Does it satisfy you, Your Highness?"
Sera smiled, even taking out a handkerchief to wipe Xia Yi's mouth.
"Cough cough, very nice, Sera, your performance today deserves praise!"
Xia Yi coughed twice, cleared her throat, and spoke earnestly.
That was close, almost let my image collapse again.
Must maintain it at all times.
"Then, Your Highness, do you need me to carry you back to the bedroom to rest?"
"Mm, let's go back!"
Xia Yi nodded her head.
Afterward, Sera gently picked up Xia Yi again.
Must say, Sera's technique is really on point, didn't make me feel uncomfortable at all.
Indeed, as a member of the Royal Maid Corps, she is too excellent.
I thought, with Sera taking me back to the room, that would be the end of it.
But then—
"Good evening, Your Highness."
The guards, seeing Xia Yi being carried by the maid sister, saluted respectfully, but their words seemed to be… trying hard to restrain a certain expression.
Oh no!!
Xia Yi inwardly cried out in alarm.
Going to be misunderstood!!
What's with being carried by a personal maid, walking around in the palace, now the dignity of the royal family is going to decline again.
But I really don't want this, it's out of helplessness.
"Quick, put me down, Sera!" Xia Yi hurriedly ordered.
"Your Highness, are you sure you want to do this?" Sera asked calmly.
And Xia Yi was almost frantic, "Quickly, it's an order!"
"Understood."
Although Sera agreed, her actions were slow, first letting Xia Yi's tail gently touch the ground—
"Yi! Wuu!"
The overly intense stimulation made the little princess's voice carry a cry, now where else would she think about getting down, continuously burrowing into Sera's embrace.
Because she was bullied by Xia Lulu, her tail was a bit disobedient now, unable to resist this strong stimulation for a while.
"Your Highness, do you need me to put you down?" Sera asked again for confirmation.
"No, no need!! Quickly, take me back to the bedroom!!"
"As you command."
Sera then carried Xia Yi towards the room.
But along the way, I don't know if Sera did it on purpose, met a lot of people, completely different from when we went to the dining room and didn't bump into anyone.
Not only the Dragon Palace guards but also members of the Royal Maid Corps.
Their unexpected yet reasonable gazes really made Xia Yi feel ashamed.
The most fatal thing was, she also encountered Grandmaster Gran.
"Isn't this Princess Your Highness?" Gran smiled, "Your Highness, you've become more and more coquettish lately, indeed still not grown up."
"That's not it!!" Xia Yi retorted, "There's a profound reason, I can't explain, but it's definitely not what you said!"
"Ah yes yes yes, Your Highness, if you say so, then it is!" Gran was overjoyed.
Xia Yi was anxious.
Damn old thing, dare to mock me!
Xia Yi's face turned red with embarrassment, but now she was in no position to argue, only able to bury her face in Sera's embrace, completely unable to retort.
Finally, under Gran's watchful eye, she left.
Finally, Sera brought Xia Yi back to the room.
She felt that the incident of being carried by Sera tonight would definitely spread throughout the Dragon Palace.
Too wronged!!
I'm not being coquettish at all, it's like a dumb man eating coptis herb!
"Sera, why did you take this route!" Xia Yi bit her lip, tears welling up, "So many people saw!"
"Your Highness, you said to quickly take you back to the room, this is the fastest route." Sera replied calmly.
Xia Yi was at a loss for words.
For a moment, she felt the maid big sister's gaze held a glint of pleasure.
She had been tricked; this was not a simple tease!
"Sera, now the whole dragon palace will know!"
"It's okay, Your Highness, everyone will just think you're very cute."
"Cute? I don't need to be cute, I hate it when people think I'm cute, what I need is dignity, dignity, do you understand?" Xia Yi emphasized repeatedly.
"Your Highness, there's something I don't understand."
"What is it?"
"Why do you care so much about dignity?"
"…"
Xia Yi was suddenly at a loss for words.
Why indeed?
She hadn't really thought about it herself.
Could it be…
The result of Xia Lulu's upbringing?
Before, the Silver Dragon Queen had told her many times that as a member of the Silver Dragon royal family, the future heir to the dragon race, she must always be mindful of her dignity.
If she kept emphasizing this, wouldn't it mean she had internalized Xia Lulu's teachings?
"No, no!! I don't want dignity, I don't need dignity anymore!" Xia Yi began to correct herself, "I need to be cute, just let everyone think I'm cute, no need for dignity from now on!"
Yes, that's right, to rebel against Xia Lulu's teachings, to do the opposite.
"Then you should be happy, Your Highness."
"I…"
Xia Yi hesitated again.
No, if everyone thinks I'm cute, wouldn't they see me as the dragon loli?
I am the noble Human Sword Saint, how can I be looked down upon like this!
If I'm content being a coquettish little girl, wouldn't that be a fall from grace?
She felt her head was about to explode, neither dignity nor cuteness was acceptable.
The two principles fought in her mind, almost splitting her psyche.
Calm down, calm down.
Breathe…
Her mind must be as clear and calm as a still mirror.
Firstly, being considered cute is absolutely unacceptable, at least the word 'cute' should not appear in association with a Sword Saint.
As for wanting dignity, it doesn't necessarily have to do with Xia Lulu's teachings, right?
She had always been mindful of her dignity in front of her students, as a teacher.
This was a principle she had long held, unrelated to Xia Lulu's teachings!!
Yes.
As a Human Sword Saint, is it wrong to be mindful of one's image?
No!
Rebellion is just an excuse to fall into being a dragon loli, I can't lose myself like that.
Stick to my true self.
From the beginning, when I went to Elly to cooperate with, it was just to get information.
It was only after being discovered by Xia Lulu and punished that such a situation arose.
Therefore, all of this was a price paid to achieve a goal!
Gradually, the little princess's chaotic thoughts calmed down.
"Sera, I've thought it through."
"Your Highness?"
"Later, go and clarify for me, it wasn't me being coquettish with you, it was due to some special circumstances that I couldn't move freely." Xia Yi said.
"That's no problem, but Your Highness, this will make others more certain that there's a problem with your tail, the only thing that could cause your tail to be like this is a punishment from the Queen, and then…"
"Ugh, then forget it!!"
Xia Yi shook her head.
If everyone knew that she had been punished by Xia Lulu, it would seem even more embarrassing!
"Then there's no need to say anything, time will prove everything! You're not allowed to hold me like this anymore, it will lead to misunderstandings!"
Xia Yi made up her mind to take action to restore her image.
She wanted everyone to know that she was actually a mature, rational, and reliable figure, not just a dragon princess who was always cute and coquettish.
Starting now!
"Your Highness the Princess."
While Xia Yi was still pondering, Sera interrupted her thoughts.
"Hmm? What is it?"
"Do you need me to assist you with your bath?"
"Ah!"
Xia Yi realized something; she had been to the Purple Kite Valley today, fought a bit, and hadn't really bathed when she returned!
"No, no need…"
Thinking back.
When she was the Human Sword Saint, in pursuit of strength, she constantly challenged formidable foes, traveled everywhere, and endured harsh environments. Who cared about bathing then?
Not bathing for a few days was normal.
How could a Sword Saint be concerned with such trivial details?
Just skipping a bath once shouldn't be a problem… right?
For some reason, Xia Yi's body began to itch unbearably.
Just because Sera mentioned it, she started to feel uncomfortable.
Perhaps it was a bodily instinct, but now Xia Yi really wanted to go to the bathhouse.
She wanted to be clean, so clean—
Hold on!
It's not a big deal!
Xia Yi clenched her little fists, trying hard to suppress the urge.
"No, if Sera carries me out later, others will see!" Xia Yi's voice was through gritted teeth, "I·won't·go!"
She had just sworn not to continue doing things that would damage her dignity in front of others.
How could she give up her resolve so quickly?
But, if there was a way to go to the bathhouse without others finding out, it wouldn't be too bad…
Sera was a capable maid, surely she would find a way to satisfy her whimsical request?
Just as the little princess waited for Sera to make a suggestion.
Her personal maid stood up.
"Understood, Your Highness. Then I shall take my leave."
"Eh? You…" Xia Yi was a bit flustered, "Aren't you going to persuade me?"
"I respect the Princess's choice. I will take my leave now, please rest well."
After bowing, Sera moved towards the bedroom door, opened it, and stepped out.
Time kept slipping away, and Xia Yi watched as the only red dragon maid who could help her out of this predicament was about to disappear—
Suddenly, Xia Yi became anxious.
"Wait!!"
"Your Highness, what is it?"
"Go, go…"
"What did you say?" Sera looked puzzled, "Sorry, I don't quite understand. Could you please clarify?"
"Carry me to the bathhouse, Sera!!"
Xia Yi, with a blushing face, shouted out these words.
Her own face was burning hot.
This maid was definitely doing it on purpose, not saying anything until I got back to the room!!
So naughty!
"As you wish, Your Highness." Sera replied with a smile.
…
Finally, it was over.
After being attended to by Sera, Xia Yi finished her bath, was carried back to the bedroom, and felt fresh and comfortable all over.
Then, it was time to rest. Because she was a bit tired today, Sera turned off the lights early and left Xia Yi to rest alone.
The only downside was that Sera, carrying the little princess in her pajamas, was seen by others in the palace…
So embarrassing!!
To endure such humiliation twice in one day!
Being carried for meals.
Being carried for baths.
What kind of princess who loves to act spoiled is this!
The entire Dragon Palace had an even deeper misunderstanding of her.
But as sleepiness overcame her, having eaten her fill, she wanted to sleep.
She lay down on the bed, squinted her eyes, and gradually fell asleep.
Despite what should have been a terrible day, Xia Yi slept soundly that night.
…
The next day.
In the early morning, the sunlight crept through the cracks of the window, warming Xia Yi's bed, and stirring her from an unfinished dream.
The silver-haired loli rubbed her eyes, stretched, and sat up.
She felt very refreshed today, having woken up before Sera came to wake her, a rare occasion where she didn't linger in bed.
Quite rare.
"I'm alive!!"
Xia Yi bounced out of bed, and noticed her tail had returned to normal, no longer as sensitive as the day before.
"Hehehe, it feels so good to have my tail back to normal!"
The little princess stood on the bed, swaying her hips, and her large tail followed the rhythm, swinging back and forth, back and forth~
Creak—
At that moment, the door opened.
Sera walked in.
Xia Yi's expression froze.
Sera doubted her own eyes, unable to accept that the Princess was up so early today.
And what exactly was the Princess doing?
The maid quickly stepped out, closing the door behind her, pretending as if she had seen nothing, as if to start over.
"Your Highness, are you awake?" Sera knocked and asked.
"Ugh!"
Xia Yi dove back under the covers.
"Sera, why did you come in without knocking!!"
"My apologies, Your Highness, I did not anticipate you would be up so early. This is the first time in years," Sera apologized, "Because you had previously mentioned that you wanted me to wake you up in a gentler manner, so I did not knock."
It seemed to be true, indisputable.
"Alright, Sera, forget what you just saw, forget everything!" A white fluff ball peeked out from under the covers, "Otherwise, I'll get angry!"
"As you command."
Although Sera said this, how could she possibly forget? She had already memorized the adorable actions of the Princess just moments ago.
"Sera, did Xia Lulu come looking for me after I returned yesterday?" Xia Yi suddenly asked.
"No, Your Highness."
"And today, does Xia Lulu have any summons for me?"
"Also no, Your Highness."
"Oh…"
Xia Yi retracted her head back under the covers.
The matter she cared about was finally confirmed.
Humph~
Her tail peeked out again, starting to sway.
Xia Lulu, you've been outplayed!
In fact, during Xia Yi's threat to Xia Lulu yesterday, she had secretly engaged in a gamble.
On the surface, it seemed she had lost completely, being severely punished by Xia Lulu.
But in reality, in this gamble, the Silver Dragon Queen lost.
The little princess successfully concealed her true intentions, and judging by Xia Lulu's reaction, up to now, the other party had not realized her terrifying method was actually…!
