Chapter 383: Chapter 307: Sending Off Fuli
It is often said that alcohol gives cowards courage, and the same goes for a cowardly demon.
With the persistent insistence of the big loli, in the end, the six sisters together toasted several rounds of farewell drinks to the Phantom.
Intentionally not using magic power to suppress the effects of the alcohol, the Phantom got thoroughly drunk. Before collapsing, she drowsily asked her sisters to carry her to Lynn’s bedroom.
This was her little scheme. Firstly, in a drunken state, she might not be as afraid to do that kind of thing. Secondly, she specifically chose to go during the day, since Lynn had just enjoyed himself with the big sister, he might not be as vigorous after resting for half a day. Moreover, if she went early enough, she might be done by the afternoon, sparing herself from having to stay overnight and undergo a second round of torment.
The Phantom had considered every aspect and could be said to have maximized her cleverness, but fate had other plans. When little Betty was carrying her only halfway, their ’corpse delivery service’ was abruptly halted.
Because Victor returned.
Fortunately, Ilya had put on makeup for him before coming out of Lynn’s place, just in case he hadn’t had enough and wanted more. In the end, this layer of defense truly worked.
Victor, who claimed to be picking up his daughter, returned earlier than expected, and she successfully completed her mission, bringing back the lost Princess Yili to the Demon Emperor Palace.
Due to her young age, Princess Yili was different from her two brothers. They were constantly fighting in the Great World outside, rarely returning to the Demon Emperor Palace, while Yili grew up in the Demon Emperor Palace and had not yet reached adulthood to leave and become independent when the Demon Dragon Emperor had already fallen.
Compared to Lynn’s few days of residence in the Demon Emperor Palace, Yili, who had lived here for nearly a thousand years, seemed more like the master of this place.
She was familiar with every grass and tree, every house and hall here, but she was not familiar with the new Demon Dragon Emperor before her.
A little over a year ago, the news of the Demon Dragon Emperor’s fall in the Miracle World came back, and Yili hid at once.
Though lacking experience due to her youth, she was always kind-hearted and very clear about how dark the Demon Realm was.
When she had her father’s protection, she was the Third Princess of the Demon Realm, but without it, she was just a beautiful demon with a noble status.
Her extraordinary talent had not yet fully manifested due to her age. Currently, she was merely a High Tier Great Demon Dragon. Compared to her brothers, who led armies to conquer worlds independently, she was weak even compared to ordinary demon nobility.
Perhaps a thousand, two thousand years later, her strength might rival her father’s level when he was alive, but now she could only first hide.
At the time, using the sense of her bloodline, she crossed mountains and waters and found her mother’s hidden place, hoping for her protection.
However, at that time, the mother dragon was slumbering in the nest, emanating such strong power that the weak Yili couldn’t even get close.
Luckily, the chosen sanctuary was very secluded, undetectable by any magic energy, allowing her to avoid the strife and chaos in the Demon Realm following her father’s fall.
A year later, her mother awoke and became as powerful as her father, a Near God, giving Yili a backing once more.
Regrettably, even though her mother was not a follower of the ruthless Destruction Demon God like her father, she was also not a follower of the Guardian Demon God. Even with her mother’s protection, ensuring her safety, changing the Demon Realm was still an impossibility.
Her words carried little weight, and she was timid and cowardly, refusing to stay and fight the Destruction Demon God faction like her sister Ilya, who was chosen by her father, and the others.
This was her difference from them. She disdained the brutality and injustice of the Destruction Demon God faction but did not dare to pledge herself to the Guardian Demon God faction and confront them.
If asked to evaluate herself, she thought she was hopelessly kind; unable to bear seeing death yet too fearful to save anything, she would merely sigh and lament inwardly.
She didn’t even dare to associate too much with her sister Ilya, whose name differed by one character, fearing being labeled as part of the Guardian Demon God faction and targeted by the majority of the Demon Realm.
Compared to brave demons like her sister Ilya, who not only took a stand but also stayed when the Demon Emperor fell and the Demon Realm order was likely to collapse, Yili was merely a pure waste.
After fleeing, she dared not expose herself outside, nor dared to inquire about the outside world, only wanting to cultivate enough self-defense power in her mother’s hideaway before emerging.
Perhaps by that time, she might not even manage to collect bodies for her sister Ilya and the others, but she was timid and could do nothing.
During his life, her father often scolded her for having superb talent but lacking the courage to fight.
Initially, due to her pure-blood status, he intended to groom her as the next Demon Emperor, but seeing her character, he was deeply disappointed and abandoned the idea.
Even her two brothers never took her seriously. Although her talent posed a threat to them, as long as she didn’t drastically change her nature, she posed no substantial threat.
Such is Yili, a demon dragon lacking any of the ferocity or cruelty of an Ancient Demon Dragon, possessing none of the sinister and treacherous nature expected of a demon. She was a little female dragon born into the wrong race.
If she had been born in a Light World like the Miracle World, she may not have reverted to become a Light Holy Dragon, but she would certainly have been considered a good dragon, even better than ordinary Dragon Race. This was because she was neither arrogant nor aggressive, truly harmless to humans and animals.
