Although it is a bit shabby, this heroic spirit is super strong

[You've heard of Crystal's name, maybe this will make things easier.]

"First, let me hear what your commission is."

"I, I would like to ask you to escort me to the Kingdom of Elvira."

Upon hearing about the Kingdom of Elvira, Xiao and Crystal looked at each other.

"There is absolutely no problem for us to accept this commission, but there is one condition."

"Conditions? Could it be..."

"No, you little brat."

Seeing the girl's embarrassed and blushing face, Xiao hit her hard.

"Woo! I, I'm not a little brat."

"Tell us your true identity. That's the only condition."

"My name is Yuliana Maxwell, the second princess of the Kingdom of Elvira..."

Yuliana pursed her lips and decided to confess to Akatsuki and the others.

Chapter 109: Princess, forced to become an adventurer

"Should we say it's good luck or bad luck that we met you so soon."

"Eh?"

Hearing Lucy say this, Yuliana's heart skipped a beat.

"Don't worry, Lucy doesn't mean that. We've come here on Hildreth O'Neill's behalf to find and protect you, Your Highness Yuliana."

"Eh? Protect me..."

"Don't worry, I won't take you away to do anything weird. After all, if I were going to do it, I would have already done it."

Seeing that Yuliana was very alert, Xiao made a dirty joke to ease the atmosphere.

"Your Highness, Yuliana, could you please tell us what's going on? Why are the White family's guards chasing you, and why were you dressed like that when we met?"

Although Crystal already had the answer to her question, she still wanted to confirm it.

"I am attending the engagement ball of His Royal Highness the Second Prince of the Empire on the orders of my father."

"Engagement ball? That guy is engaged again?"

"Well, the engagement party with the fifth wife."

Yuliana was very surprised by Akatsuki's casual attitude towards the Second Prince of the Empire.

"That guy is really something, can you handle it?"

"Brother Xiao, it seems you have no right to complain about the Second Prince."

"Then why are you here in Wilder Territory now, still looking like that?"

"My father was looking for an opportunity to marry me to the Second Prince... Apparently, for this reason, we were attacked by Earl Wilder on our way back to the kingdom."

Listening to Yuliana's pitiful narration, Xiao smiled slightly.

Yuliana realized that Xiao had discovered her lie and glared at him with some dissatisfaction.

Xiao also felt that this lie was harmless, and raising questions would only cause more trouble, so he responded to Yuliana with a smile.

"Earl Wilder...as expected."

Crystal didn't notice the eye contact between the two, and was immersed in her own thoughts.

Rose smiled evilly and said nothing.

"What's the matter with you letting me out?"

As dawn approached, Xiao came to the balcony of the apartment.

Because they talked until very late, Yuliana finally slept in Xiao and their room.

When Xiao left the room, she was being held tightly by Lucy and Rose, having a nightmare.

"Should we escort Juliana back to the Kingdom of Elvira as soon as possible?"

Crystal knew that Akatsuki planned to follow the original plan and take Yuliana with him to complete the strategy of the new area of ​​the Ouroboros dungeon before heading to the Kingdom of Elvira.

But Crystal felt that it was urgent to send the princess back.

"If we send her back now, the journey will only become more dangerous."

"Is there any reason?"

"Don't you think the attacks we've encountered recently are too frequent?"

"But we're not being followed by anyone?"

Crystal knew that Xiao felt they were being followed, but neither she nor Xiao herself noticed any signs.

"People need to have imagination. Perhaps the other party has some unknown means that we are just unaware of?"

According to Su Lin'er, the heroes' special skills are all kinds of strange.

Xiao felt that if that unusual guy had some strange surveillance methods, it wouldn't be impossible.

"But…"

"My correspondence with Hildreth has been intercepted several times. It would be best to assume that the Montgomery family also knows that we are looking for Juliana."

"You and her exchanged letters, how come I didn't know about this?"

Looking at Crystal's puffed-up little face, Xiao poked it a few times.

"So, I want to pretend that we were completely wiped out at Ouroboros to buy some time.

As long as we can bring Yuliana to O'Neill's control area, the situation should be much more favorable for us."

The Montgomery family's goal is to use Juliana as a fuse to trigger a war with the Kingdom of Elvira.

Therefore, Xiao couldn't rule out the possibility that they would kill Yuliana in a fit of rage.

"I see, but you just avoided my question."

Crystal looked at Xiao with dissatisfaction.

"You guys, aren't you talking about anything weird in the letter?"

"How is it possible...Ahaha..."

Xiao decided not to mention to Crystal that Hildreth had been making all sorts of strange suggestions about her.

If possible, he actually hoped that the relationship between the two sisters could be better.

"You guy."

Crystal grabbed Xiao's collar and stood on tiptoe to kiss him passionately.

"I won't let that guy take you away from me."

"How could I bear to leave you, idiot?"

Xiao put his arm around Crystal's waist and kissed her again in response.

"Huh, idiot! You know I'm worried..."

"Those two..."

A small chestnut head popped out from the crack of the balcony door.

"Your Highness Yuliana?! You…"

"Sorry, I didn't mean to disturb you two! It's just..."

Coo~~Coo~

"Ah! I, no, I..."

"It seems that we need to prepare breakfast early today."

Xiao and Crystal smiled at each other helplessly.

"Woo! You're so good at applying makeup, can't you make me look better?"

Yuliana complained while fiddling with her bangs while holding the small mirror she borrowed from Rose.

Xiao not only straightened and dyed her chestnut curly hair, which she was proud of, black, but also tied it into a very rustic pigtail.

Her cute and delicate little face was not only covered with heavy makeup by Xiao, but also dotted with many freckles.

Although Yuliana thinks she is very cute now, she always feels that she is a little too rustic.

"Can you please stop worrying about this? Where am I supposed to find the materials for you so early in the morning?"

Xiao tapped Yuliana's head lightly.

Yesterday, I simply used a hood to cover Yuliana's appearance.

This morning he had also put together some materials from here and there and spent a lot of effort to dress Yuliana up like this.

"Woo! How dare you hit me now!"

"Why do I feel like this girl has become a lot more arrogant..."

Rose, who was even younger than Yuliana, complained helplessly.

She felt that Yuliana seemed to have become a lot more spoiled since this morning.

"Why not? After all, even if someone suddenly disappears, no one else will know the whole story, right?"

“Ah! You, you…”

"Okay Akatsuki, stop scaring Yuri."

"Hehe, Miss Crystal is still the best. But where are we going now?"

Yuliana originally thought that Xiao was going to take her away from Helenels Town, but now they were heading towards the center of the town.

"Go to the weapons and armor shop and buy you some equipment."

"Eh? But why should I..."

"What are you talking about, Miss Yuri? As a new member of our adventurer team, you must work hard to contribute your strength."

"Eh? W-why... Aren't you guys going to take me back?"

"Who said we came here specifically to help you? Sending you back is just a side job."

"Clam?!"

Chapter 110 Some Extra Princesses

"Any questions?"

"It's a big problem, okay!"

Because they were on the street, Yuliana had no way to complain in person.

However, she could not accept Xiao's casual attitude towards her.

Although they are not his subordinates, Xiao and the others can be considered as guards sent to him by Duke O'Neill, right?

Not to mention how respectful I should be, but what does it mean to just send me back to the kingdom?

The foreign princess kept cursing Xiao in her heart, deliberately letting him know her dissatisfaction.

"Then there's a problem. Anyway, you're the only one who's dissatisfied."

"Hey! What the hell is this?!"

"We're here now. Have you learned any combat skills?"

"Stop your contemptuous attitude, you bastard. I'm not only skilled in magic, I'm also very skilled in swordsmanship!"

"Really? Then just pick one."
