The Journey of the Rainbow Dragon.

"Are you the messenger sent by the Rose Kingdom?"

Ekaterina looked Vivian up and down with a scrutinizing gaze, with a hint of suspicion in her eyes.

Why would the Rose Kingdom send a girl who looks like she has not yet grown out of her childishness to attend such an important coronation ceremony?

Ekaterina's doubts were not without reason.

Although Vivian received careful instruction from famous teachers arranged by the old king, and her inner wisdom and temperament had improved, her youthful appearance could not hide the fact.

"Yes, I am Vivian, the special envoy sent by the Rose Kingdom. May I ask who you are?"

Although she was somewhat puzzled by the sudden appearance of the orc lady, Vivian still answered her questions politely.

However, she did not reveal many details when answering.

After all, it is always wise to be cautious in a foreign country.

"I'm Ekaterina."

The queen who was about to ascend the throne did not hide her identity and directly announced it.

"It turned out to be Her Majesty the Queen."

Vivian bowed her head slightly and saluted the nominal ruler of the Orc Kingdom with neither arrogance nor servility. At the same time, she took out the messenger badge to confirm her identity.

Ekaterina's pale blue pupils passed over the emblem.

It is undoubtedly true. After all, the special magical light flowing on it is obviously not fake.

Even though she had confirmed the other person's identity, Ekaterina still felt a strange sense of unreality when she looked at her.

If it weren't for the conclusive information from the spies at the city gate, Catherine would never have believed that this frail girl was an envoy sent by the mighty Rose Kingdom.

She sincerely suspected that the little girl might not even have received her college diploma yet.

Even though that is the case.

Looking at Vivian's young face.

Ekaterina couldn't help but frown.

She doubted whether the other party had the ability to discuss the next matters with her on behalf of the Rose Kingdom.

Hesitated for a moment

In the end, Ekaterina still invited him as planned:

"Then please follow me."

She said, her tone was polite but full of unquestionable:

"I have prepared accommodation and the following schedule for the envoy."

"At the same time, I have some things I need to discuss with the Rose Kingdom. I think we will see each other often in the next few days. I hope we can get along well."

Although her words sounded polite, there was an unquestionable aristocratic arrogance in Catherine's bones.

Obviously, she did not regard Vivian as an equal, but rather treated her as a mouthpiece between the Rose Kingdom and the Orc Kingdom.

Looking at Vivian's tender face, Ekaterina's eyes flashed with a gleam.

"This little girl seems to be easy to deceive. Since she can represent the kingdom alone, it means that she should have a high status in the eyes of the human king. Maybe she can do it."

She thought to herself that perhaps compared to those cunning guys, the girl in front of her might be more suitable for her current situation.

This was exactly the breakthrough she needed!
Ekaterina believed that if she could win the support of the Rose Kingdom, she would be able to compete with Hogg and eventually seize real power.

Ambition grows like weeds in my heart
She imagined in her mind the scenario of successfully overthrowing that damn dog of Hogg.

Once this goal is achieved, she can even break with the Rose Kingdom without hesitation, because to her, so-called credit is nothing more than a bargaining chip in the game of power.

Thinking about the future when she would control the entire orc kingdom and become the true orc queen, Ekaterina felt an irrepressible excitement.

Her heart was filled with desire for power. The fatigue accumulated from days of planning was swept away at this moment, and she was even trembling with excitement.

the other side

Faced with this emergency
Vivian was a little undecided, so she turned and looked at Ron.

This was not part of their original itinerary.

According to Ron's arrangement, Vivian's mission this time was actually very simple.

She only needs to stay in the Rock Tribe for a few days, visit and witness the Queen's coronation ceremony, and show her face in front of envoys from various countries.

But now, it is clear that this plan does not fit in with Catherine's arrangements.

Ron, who was sitting cross-legged in mid-air and observing the whole process, suddenly chuckled:
"So when a monkey sits on the throne for a long time, it actually develops a bit of the so-called imperial aura?"

Hearing this, Ekaterina was stunned.

Monkey? Who was he talking about?
There was no time to be surprised that the pseudo-dragon could speak the common language of mankind.

The first thing Ekaterina thought about was who this fake dragon was talking to.

You know, in order to successfully escape from Hogg's surveillance, he didn't bring any guards this time!
Ekaterina subconsciously looked around, and finally pointed at herself blankly.

Until Ron nodded to her with an "encouraging" look to show his approval.

Only then did Catherine confirm that the "monkey sitting on the throne" mentioned by the pseudo-dragon was actually herself.

She opened her eyes wide in disbelief, her face turning pale and blue.

At this moment, even if Vivian said such sarcasm, Ekaterina might not be so angry.

She might even suppress her anger and continue to communicate with the other party, as she believes she has endured too many insults and won't mind a little more.

And what Vivian represents behind is Karen's most powerful force at this moment - the Rose Kingdom.

In order to seize power, she could and allowed herself to "endure humiliation and bear heavy burdens".

Being insulted so contemptuously by a magical pet was really unbearable for Ekaterina.

Ron's brief words were like the last straw that broke the camel's back.

The anger that had been hidden in Catherine's heart since Hogg pushed her to the throne due to being ignored and for various other reasons suddenly erupted.

"Damn fake dragon, what did you say!"

Ekaterina's voice was sharp as a knife, and anger burned on her face.

She raised her slightly trembling arm, pointed at Ron, and growled through gritted teeth:
"I have noble royal blood flowing in my veins, and you are nothing more than a magical pet. How dare you insult me ​​like this!"

Upon hearing this, Vivian's face suddenly turned cold.

She clenched her fists, took a step forward, and stood between Ron and Ekaterina, her eyes flashing with determination and anger:
"Ron is not a familiar, he is my family!"

She retorted loudly, meeting Ekaterina's anger fearlessly, her ruby ​​pupils staring directly into those fiery blue eyes.

"Even if you are the queen, you still have to be responsible for what you just did."

Vivian was about to say something else, but Ron stopped her with a look.

[Don't worry, leave it to me]

【it is good】

In a flash, the man and the dragon completed the communication tacitly.

Vivian then nodded and took a step back in tacit understanding, allowing Ron to reveal himself.

the other side

Ron sat cross-legged in the air and spread his hands indifferently:

"If telling the truth is an insult, well, then I'm going to insult you, how about that?"

His voice was light and teasing, as if he was making fun of a meaningless argument.

There was no soundproofing barrier between the two.

In the absence of any cover, it naturally attracted the attention of surrounding residents and adventurers.

"Isn't that the new queen?"

"What happened?"

"It seems that there was a conflict between the Queen and the envoy of the Rose Kingdom."

“Go and have a look”

“Go, go, go”

Driven by curiosity, they gathered together quickly and formed a circle, surrounding Ekaterina, Vivian and Ron in the middle.

The crowd's whispers were mixed with excitement. After all, such a confrontation was not common on the streets, and watching such a "drama" was undoubtedly a rare pleasure in their lives.

Regardless of race, the crowds always have the same positive attitude towards lively scenes.

The quick-witted merchants noticed the gathering of the crowd and immediately seized the opportunity. They hurriedly ran to the crowd with their goods and began to sell their products, fearing that they would miss this rare lively scene.

"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!"

Ekaterina's voice was almost trembling, anger filling every word.

Her eyes burned at Ron, as if he were the cause of all the discontent in her life.

"You all deserve to die, you untouchables!"

Yekaterina screamed

In her eyes, the pseudo dragon was gradually overlapping with the kobold.

She could no longer maintain her previous disguise. She had always endured humiliation in the fight for power, but now she was finally pushed to her limit:

"I am the real king! You and that dog, why do you look down on me? Why do you!"

Ekaterina's scream echoed in the air, harsh and full of resentment, as if she wanted to pour out all the depression and dissatisfaction in her heart:

"You untouchables are born to be trampled under my feet. You are born to be lowly and should spend your whole life digging in iron mines!"

As soon as these words were spoken, whispers and low exclamations arose among the crowd.

Some orcs who had experienced similar things were furious, and their eyes when they looked at the queen were no longer calm and composed.

And the other side

Ekaterina didn't notice the gazes of the people around her, and was still immersed in venting her emotions:
"It was me who gave you the right to walk in the sun, and now you dare to..."

The image of the crazy and abusive woman looked like a shrew in luxurious clothes.

Scold to the end

Ekaterina's hoarse voice no longer had the "noble" sound it once had.

The wings of her nostrils trembled slightly from the effort of breathing, and the pores hidden under the makeup were dilated unusually obviously.

Although she realized that her behavior was wrong, her excitement could no longer be controlled by reason, causing Catherine to completely lose her usual elegant demeanor.

The more this happened, the more ridiculous and pathetic her image became in the eyes of everyone.

What’s funny is that in such a boring life, you can actually see the leader of a country swearing like a shrew on the street.

Sadly
This kind of guy
Is he our king? (End of this chapter)
