The demon princess was defeated and captured? Sorry, I acted in it)

watch off

The third princess left.

I haven't even had time to breathe a sigh of relief yet.

suddenly...

A uniform and powerful sound of footsteps came towards this side.

Xia Ya looked up leisurely, her eyes wide open with curiosity.

Wow...

——All golden retrievers!

Well...the golden-haired ones refer to those young men and women who were walking in groups. Their hair was all blonde, and they looked spectacular standing together!

This hair color is very similar to Sia's blonde hair, but Sia's blonde hair is obviously more dazzling.

"Tsk tsk tsk... We haven't even seen the cake yet and there's already so much going on... Who is this, Xia?"

"The Wright family, my cousins."

"Wow, this is quite a big deal, but I wonder how many cakes I can eat in one bite."

45. Feeling jealous?

These relatives come together in groups to wish you a happy birthday. In the final analysis, they are just trying to save trouble.

Because think about it, instead of coming one by one to congratulate, they might as well form a group, those who can speak can lead the dumb ones, and the dumb ones can lead the dumb ones, so that everyone's blessings can appear to be full of sincerity~

It should be said that the Wright family's genes are quite strong.

These people were all handsome men and beautiful women. When they walked, they followed the standard steps that all nobles had to follow in their training. Their cuffs were all white with gold edges, giving off a murderous aura that had been honed on the battlefield.

A group of people always needs a leader.

Leading the team at the front, the blond man with squinting eyes and a smile and fringe hair should be the big brother of their generation.

Before they came over.

——Xia silently held Xuefia’s little hand.

"Shia?"

"No problem, hold my hand, and I'll take you to eat cake after I send them off."

"Hey, don't worry, don't rush. As long as the cake isn't snatched away, it doesn't matter if you come earlier or later! So... the cake won't be snatched away, right?"

"No, there is no limit to the cakes tonight."

"That's it! I'm super patient!"

Miss Xia Ya, who was pacing anxiously just now, suddenly became stronger after hearing these words!

When the family parade is about to reach this side...

The blond man in the front slightly spread out his palms, and his smile became even brighter.

"Oh oh...! Cousin Xia! The protagonist of your party is finally here! We have been waiting for so long!"

Starting from this, the family members following behind him also spoke one after another. The voices were so chaotic that it was impossible to tell who was who.

"Happy birthday, cousin."

"Congratulations!"

"It's a triumphant birthday and a happy new year. Good things have happened to our Wright family one after another recently!"

"..."

More than a dozen people were talking in a mess at the same time. An ordinary person might be intimidated by the momentum.

But Xia was not in a hurry. She nodded slightly to express her gratitude to these relatives.

Just talking to the person leading the team at the front would be considered a response to the entire team.

"Cousin Karl, thank you for bringing everyone here. I appreciate your kindness, and I wish all of you all the best."

"Haha, thank you so much for your blessing, cousin Xia! Let us also share in your good luck on this birthday!"

Carlette is the eldest son of Uncle Xia's family.

Xia's father, the current head of the Wright family, is the second oldest in the family in terms of age. Xia's uncle is the oldest, and this Carl Wright is the uncle's child, and is also the older one of the same generation in the family.

Hearing this, Carlette continued to smile without letting any tears escape his eyes. He finally opened his squinting eyes, revealing the azure edge in them.

If you only look at his expression, he seems a little worried.

"Yes, everything is going well... Think about everything our family does, isn't it to protect our country and improve our strength? Alas... It's a pity that this heavy burden has always been borne by you, cousin. We, your brothers and sisters, have been left far behind by you and can't catch up. We can't share your worries, and we have been blaming ourselves."

Wow, this guy is a bit hypocritical!

This was Xue Feiya's direct judgment after hearing what he said.

If you were really worried, you wouldn't have said these words. You should go to some deep mountains and forests to train and improve your strength. Why are you coming here to grab a piece of cake? Isn't that pretentious?

Xia had no idea about Xuefei's rapid-fire mental complaints.

But she also felt uncomfortable when she heard Karl’s words.

"My cousin, you are too kind." Xiya shook her head and corrected him. "If I hadn't

If Sanwu remembered correctly, didn't cousin Carl break through to the ninth level? The king invited all the ministers to attend the celebration banquet, but cousin didn't come. It seems that he was stationed at the northern polar border to guard the fourth legion of the demon clan that was on a surprise attack? With such an achievement, how can you say that he can't share the worry? "

"Haha...hahahaha! Cousin Xia, you've grown a year older and it's not in vain! You've become even more eloquent!"

Xia was too lazy to respond to this.

Being eloquent means that this is indeed the right response.

That also means that even he himself admitted that the "self-blame" he said before was just a polite remark, and he was also telling Xia not to take it seriously.

After laughing, Carl looked back at the others, then turned back and continued.

"Ninth level is still not enough. Look at us, we are older than you, but most of us are stuck at sixth and seventh levels and can't make any progress. It's not like your cousin Xia has reached the tenth level at such a young age and is qualified to be a hero. Oh... Oh, right! I just returned to the capital, and I heard that my cousin captured the demon princess by herself. Is this true?!"

"Yes, yes, Brother Carl!" Someone in the family formation behind him raised his hand to confirm. "My cousin captured the first princess of the demon clan on the battlefield a few days ago. Now everyone in the capital knows about it. Cousin, you are too behind the times!"

"It's true...! Cousin, I really want to congratulate you! This achievement is no joke, it will definitely go down in history, no hero in history has ever been able to achieve what you have! Now think about it... It seems more and more natural that the Holy Sword chose you as a hero, don't you think?"

This time, the inquiry only received a few bitter smiles from the people behind him.

This atmosphere did not make Carl feel awkward, he continued to smile brightly.

"If there is a chance... I would also like to fight with the legendary six-winged demon princess. Even if the chances of winning are slim, being able to fight with such a top powerhouse is an honor in itself."

Just now.

A slightly abrupt female voice suddenly interrupted the conversation.

"Brother Carl, there's no need to be so cautious, right?"

"Nona?"

Everyone looked towards the end of the queue.

A woman with short blond hair, slightly younger than Carl, was leaning against the wall.

She turned her head away with disdain, completely disregarding etiquette and politeness.

Nonalette is Carlette's half-sister. She always feels a little uncomfortable when she hears her brother speak like this.

In addition, Nona reached the eighth level at the young age of nineteen, which is enough to be called a genius.

"If you ask me, it's no big deal. Compared to Brother Karl who has been stationed at the border for many years, Xia Lai Te has been staying in the comfort zone of the capital for many years. Maybe the Demon Princess is not as scary as the rumors say. Isn't it just a holy sword in her hand? If I have a chance to face the Demon Princess, I might be able to knock her down!"

Hey yo I really am...!

I see, is this why Xia held my hand?

This little girl, she ate a few cakes and she's talking nonsense here. Let's not talk about who will beat who first, do you dare to compete in appetite? !

Carlette looked back at his sister and shook his head helplessly.

He turned back and apologized to Shialet.

"I'm sorry, cousin... Nona is just like that. She's only one year older than you and is your age, but she's always so ignorant and unstable. You should not take it seriously."

"It doesn't matter. We are all working for the kingdom. It doesn't matter what we say."

"Ahahahaha...indeed, indeed."

Ha...cousin Xia has indeed become more eloquent.

Karl could tell that his cousin was saying: "Everything depends on actions, not words."

I don't know why, but I feel like cousin Shia seems to be very angry after talking about the Demon Princess...?

Alas, the more Xue Feiya looks at these people, the more hypocritical they seem to me.

You guys obviously feel jealous, right?

Miss Xia Ya shook her head repeatedly.

Including this Carl Wright, he obviously knew about Xia's battle record a long time ago. It's not like fighting on the border is not reported by the military. He obviously knew it, but he deliberately pretended to be surprised... How dishonest! If you are unhappy, why don't we just have a fight and it will be over!

Oh...that's why I say that humans are really not as frank as my Xia.

Of course, Carlette noticed the little girl holding Xia's hand.

I didn't think of asking just now.

But seeing her sighing and shaking her head, Karl frowned, his blood pressure rose unconsciously, and he finally couldn't help but raise his mouth.

"Speaking of cousin... who is this little girl? Can you introduce her to us?

Why is it that you look like a stranger? "

46. ​​Fairness

Look, I know that I will be involved wherever I go.

If you want to have a good chat, why do you have to focus on poor Xia Ya who only thinks about eating cake.

So after Carlette asked this question, the little girl in front of him swayed her head from side to side even faster!

Xia was still holding Xuefei's small hand, but she raised her hands slightly and began to introduce the little guy who accompanied her.

"Her name is Xia Ya, she has no surname and is an orphan."

"Oh? That's true... But cousin Xia, today's event not only includes those nobles who were specially invited, but also the royal family led by His Majesty the King. It can be said that this is our family's own family banquet. Why did you bring this knight with you... Miss Xia?"

"Haa... Please don't be offended, cousin. Xia is my subordinate knight. She needs to learn from me. If I need anything, she can help me in time, so I brought her with me."

"Subordinate Knight...?"

"Yes, Xia Ya is an apprentice knight appointed by His Majesty the King. She has great potential and talent. Now I am responsible for guiding her."

Miss Xia Ya looked so pitiful that she didn't dare to come out and say hello. She could only hide behind Xia Ya and nod and greet her implicitly - at least that's what it looked like on the surface.

In fact, it wasn't just Carlite who asked a slightly surprised question.

Even the young family members following behind him were talking about it to some extent.

But Karlite's surprise only lasted for a moment.

Soon, he raised his hand, which had become thicker and more powerful due to years of fighting in the Northern Territory, and the discussions gradually stopped.

"Everyone, please be quiet. It's my cousin's birthday, so let's just send our wishes and express our feelings. So, cousin Xiya, my second uncle and his men are thanking the guests who came to give gifts in the side hall. When you have time, go and say hello to them. We will go around first. These are delicious dishes and good wines. It's a rare opportunity to come here. We should all enjoy celebrating my cousin's birthday!"

"Okay, thank you all cousins."

The second uncle refers to the current head of the Wright family, Xia’s father, Ekright.

Carl Wright's call attracted a lot of responses. Upon hearing his words, the members of the Wright family chatted in twos and threes and dispersed in different directions of the banquet hall.

"Let's go, let's go!"

"Okay, okay, drink more today. You stay at the frontier every year and never come back to the capital. Let's see if I can get you drunk today. Don't come back until you are drunk!"

"Drink less, everyone. I still have to lead the Knights on patrol after the banquet, and I don't have as much free time as you do."

"What are you afraid of? I still have to go to the border of the Church to guard against those bastards tomorrow morning. I will drink anyway, right? It's no problem!"

It can be said that people come and go in a hurry.

Xia said politely, "Cousins, take care." After they had walked a certain distance away...
