Princess Lucia had been kidnapped by the Evil Dragon for a day and a night already, and if she couldn't be rescued from the Evil Dragon's clutches promptly, who knows whether the next time we see Princess Lucia, she might be sporting a swollen belly...
The Evil Dragon is lecherous.
It fancies every good-looking female creature, and in entertainment literature, Evil Dragons fancy beautiful princesses.
In reality, the Evil Dragon's aesthetic... differs somewhat from that of humans.
For instance, in the eyes of the Empire's knights and Princess Asina, Princess Lucia, transformed into a Young Dragon, might seem quite ugly.
But in the eyes of the Evil Dragon, Princess Lucia, transformed into a Young Dragon, might seem very beautiful and alluring.
So, if the Evil Dragon harbored lustful thoughts for Princess Lucia, and the Phalan Empire couldn't rescue her in time from the Evil Dragon's hands...
The consequences could be very serious.
Eva was worried about Lucia and did not want her innocence to be sullied by an Evil Dragon.
In her heart, a kind and adorable princess like Lucia should have a bright future, even if she couldn't become an empress; her fate shouldn't be to be kidnapped by an Evil Dragon.
"Truly a knight most loyal to my disgraceful younger sister, you've thought of something even I hadn't considered, seeking to borrow books related to the Evil Dragon from the great temples of the capital. Had you not spoken, it wouldn't have even crossed my mind."
Princess Asina patted the empty chair beside her, gesturing for Eva to sit next to her and talk.
"Princess Asina, I am a Wizard, aren't you afraid I'll take the opportunity to control you?"
"You've already pledged your loyalty to me, what do I have to fear? Come, sit here, and let's talk about my disgraceful younger sister's transformation into a dragon."
Eva did not refuse; she walked over and sat beside Asina.
She had to admit, this second Princess also had a unique personal charm; as an adversary, it was hard for her to harbor any dislike for the Princess.
In the struggle for the throne, she saw more clearly than Lucia; from beginning to end, Princess Asina had always held an absolute advantage.
It was less a contest with Lucia for the throne, and more like she was amusing herself with Princess Lucia in her own unique way.
"After my disgraceful younger sister transformed into a dragon, how long can she maintain her Dragon Form?"
"I don't know."
"You cursed her to transform into a dragon, and you don't know the effect?"
"I don't know. However, the Dragon Transformation Curse Technique is the strongest curse I command. Originally, this Cursing Technique was reserved for my use. Your Highness is aware that I am a Dark Wizard; I need a powerful curse to ensure that I can escape when faced with mortal danger.
Becoming a Giant Dragon, endowed with tremendous powers, is undoubtedly the best choice."
Princess Asina nodded in agreement; under normal circumstances, transforming into a Giant Dragon should indeed allow for a counterattack against an enemy.
Eva's idea was not wrong; a curse can harm, but it can also save.
Of course, in the eyes of most, a curse is a particularly dark power, capable of causing someone to die in extreme agony or to drop dead without any warning.
So, most people despise Curse Wizards.
Her disgraceful younger sister was an anomaly who not only rescued Eva, a Curse Wizard on the brink of execution, from the death cell but also accepted her allegiance.
It turned out the disgraceful younger sister's judgment was not bad; Eva did not betray her "life-saving grace." At the very least, when her disgraceful younger sister was in trouble, Eva did not betray her.
She even arranged a way out for her, allowing her to have a certain capacity to protect herself.
The only unforeseen outcome was that the disgraceful younger sister, due to the curse transforming her into a dragon, would suddenly be kidnapped by an Evil Dragon.
Eva probably never imagined that the escape route she prepared for her disgraceful younger sister would become a one-way path of no return.
"Will my disgraceful younger sister, who turned into a dragon, be able to breathe Dragon's Breath?"
"I don't know."
Eva truly did not know; having never used this strongest curse herself, she might have known had she used it; without trying, she had no idea whether after transforming into a dragon one would possess the most basic abilities of a Giant Dragon.
Logically speaking, one should possess the most basic abilities of a Giant Dragon.
Didn't Princess Lucia just spread her wings and flew into the sky yesterday?
With the flight ability of a giant dragon, breathing dragon's breath shouldn't be any problem.
"Your after-sales service sucks,"
Princess Asina complained about Eva. When you buy a greatsword at the weapons shop, there is after-sales service.
With Eva, you get a take-off gift pack and then that's it, whether you can land safely or not is a gamble.
The unfortunate younger sister had bad luck, one moment proudly claiming "She will definitely come back", and the next second, she was snatched away by a swooping evil dragon.
Whether she can come back has become an unknown.
Just thinking about the scene where the unfortunate younger sister had been snatched away by the evil dragon right after her bold claims, Asina couldn't help but laugh.
Arrogance attracts the evil dragon's retaliation.
"Princess Asina, we should head to the temples in the imperial capital as soon as possible to borrow some books related to the evil dragon. If we still can't find information about that evil dragon, we might need to seek the temple's power later,"
"No need to panic, as long as the unfortunate sister doesn't turn back into a human shortly, the evil dragon won't have any evil thoughts towards her, after all, she's so ugly when she's a dragon."
"....."
"Melissa, take my royal decree and make a trip to the major temples in the imperial capital. Tell them I wish to borrow some books related to the evil dragon. The arrival of the evil dragon in the imperial capital yesterday should be known to all the major temples.
They should guess what the books are for. Continue to keep my unfortunate sister's transformation into a young dragon a secret. Don't let it slip; I've issued a gag order yesterday, not many people know about the unfortunate sister turning into a dragon."
"At your command."
Melissa, clad in silver armor, accepted the decree from Princess Asina and left the royal garden.
"Eva, can your dragon transformation curse technique be used on a large scale?"
"It can't. The dragon transformation curse technique can only be used once, and to successfully transform into a dragon, a 'seed' must be used."
"Seed?" Asina asked, puzzled: "What kind of seed?"
"A seed named 'trust.' Only by fully trusting me, the curse wizard, without any doubt or resistance, can the dragon transformation curse technique succeed."
"Then your condition is somewhat harsh."
In this world, no one would trust a curse wizard, and nobody would willingly accept a curse from a curse wizard.
A curse might be more terrifying than an evil dragon in the hearts of people.
"Eva, what do you think my unfortunate sister is doing now?"
"Maybe... crying?"
"I think she's probably cursing me."
"....."
.......
Princess Lucia, transformed into a young dragon, is fighting with the Hellhound Er Gouzi for steamed buns on Black Dragon Island.
Er Gouzi, the sinister two-headed hound, gobbles up two large buns at once, while she can barely manage one.
The Evil Dragon Lance steamed twenty large buns, and in the blink of an eye, the vile hound finished off eight.
She only had four.
"Don't just eat the buns, drink some porridge."
"Let Er Gouzi drink it."
"Woof woof woof woof—"
The two heads of the hound angrily cursed the young dragon Lucia in dog language. She had been terrified of it yesterday, but today she was competing with it for buns; what she might do to it tomorrow, the hellhound didn't dare to imagine.
