Chapter 49 I have no use whatsoever
Chapter 49 I have no use whatsoever
"Your Highness, abandon the struggle for the throne and return to the capital!"
Sophia's guardian knight Anna scratched her blond hair a few times, her eyes filled with despair. Another mark had appeared on the back of her prince's right hand!
A black and red lightning mark.
First, bluish-purple dragon scales appeared on his chest, then a golden flame mark appeared between his eyebrows, and now even the back of his right hand has a mark. If this continues, will His Highness's legs and the back of his left hand also have some inexplicable marks?
As Sophia's guardian knight, failing to enter the dream world to protect her is already a serious dereliction of duty.
If Princess Sophia were to fail to return from the dream world one day, she would have no face to live on.
Sitting on the bed, Sophia looked at the black and red lightning bolt mark on the back of her right hand, feeling somewhat helpless. It was exactly what she feared...
While in Hell, she was afraid that the black and red lightning mark on the back of her hand would appear on the back of her right hand in her physical body. Unexpectedly, Anna discovered it as soon as she opened her eyes.
He then persuaded her to give up the struggle for the throne and let her return to the capital.
"Don't be nervous, Anna. This mark on the back of your hand isn't a curse mark, but a summoning mark."
Lord Distin feared I wouldn't be able to protect myself, so he made me sign a summoning contract with some powerful magical beast.
To prevent Anna from overthinking, Sophia smiled and told Anna the true purpose of the black and red mark on the back of her hand.
"A summoning mark?" Anna glanced at Sophia suspiciously, her gaze falling on the black and red lightning mark on the back of Sophia's hand.
Is this a summon beast mark?
"Um."
"I don't believe it." Anna shook her head. "Unless Your Highness summons the magical beast you made a pact with in front of me."
"..."
If Anna summons the Nightmare Beast, she'll probably be plunged into a nightmare on the spot.
The Nightmare Beast's previous master was the Headless Horseman.
Although Anna is her guardian knight, Anna's strength is definitely not as great as the Headless Horseman's.
"No, no, Lord Diding won't let me summon Nightmare Beasts at will."
Sofia shook her head in refusal.
Anna stared into Sophia's eyes for a moment, sighed, and said, "It's not that I don't trust Your Highness, it's that I'm afraid Your Highness will be deceived by the dragon in your dream."
What if the dragon you met in your dream wanted to use you to come to the real world...?
"Anna!" Sophia suddenly shouted to stop Anna. Seeing Anna looking at her with surprise, Sophia looked into Anna's eyes and said seriously, "You can't talk about Lord Distin like that."
Lord Destin wouldn't use me, do you know why?
Why?
"Because I have no use whatsoever to Lord Distin."
"......"
Sophia pouted. She desperately wanted to be useful, but she was precisely the one with the least value...
The dragon Diding even made it clear that he had no expectations of her, so naturally he wouldn't be disappointed.
Anna looked at Sophia, who seemed a little aggrieved, and for a moment she didn't know what to say.
Is her Highness really that useless in the eyes of the dragon Diding in her dreams?
It has no value whatsoever...
"Your Highness, you are a princess..."
"Even the princess is useless; Lord Distin is the true king."
Sophia dressed as she spoke, for in her heart, the dragon Diding was already the king of the Crimson Wasteland.
He is not a lord, but a king.
A King is stronger than a Lord.
"I'm not drinking milk this morning."
"What would Your Highness like to eat?"
"I have a bottle of Vitality Juice here. When we get to the restaurant, could you help me unscrew the cap?"
"it is good."
Anna smiled. Her Highness was still that delicate little girl who couldn't even open a bottle cap.
The restaurant on the first floor.
Anna looked at the person who was even taller than her, and couldn't even wrap her arms around the glass bottle. Her lips twitched incessantly.
When she learned that the glass bottle contained the sap of tree roots brimming with life force, she suddenly felt... that the dragon in her dream occasionally using Princess Sophia... didn't seem so excessive after all...
She now understood why her prince would protect the dragon in his dreams.
The dragon in my dream gave me so much...
When the blue-haired, blue-eyed Emily looked at the glass bottle that was taller than a person, she was dumbfounded. Was this the power of that "Lord Destin"?
That's incredibly extravagant.
Even the Elf Queen of the Elf Kingdom might not be willing to give away such a large bottle of [Life Essence Tree Sap] all at once.
Just how powerful and influential is Princess Sophia clinging to...?
Is this the power of the Lord of Thunder?
No wonder Princess Sophia named the caravan "The Caravan of the Lord of Thunder".
"You two, stop standing there watching. Quickly find a stool and help me unscrew the cap."
"Oh, oh, oh."
Anna and Emily responded in unison, carried stools to the glass bottle, and the three of them stood in a triangle formation, twisting the bottle cap in the same direction.
The three of them tried their best but still couldn't open the bottle cap. In the end, Anna took out her longsword and pried the cap open from the side.
After opening the bottle cap, Sofia asked Emily to bring over a few empty bottles, filled them all, and then gave the bottles to Emily.
Emily was flattered and overwhelmed. "Your...Your Highness, what is this...?"
"As the leader of the caravan, you will definitely encounter many unexpected problems after leaving the Northern Territory. Take these sap trees of life energy with you and drink them directly when you are injured."
Also, if you encounter a kind-hearted, critically ill, and grateful person, you can use this to save them.
Remember, after you rescue them, tell them that the Lord of Thunder saved them, and if any strong individuals are willing to swear an oath to follow the Lord of Thunder, you will be their witness.
After you leave the North, whatever happens to you is up to you.
"Yes, sir!"
Emily took two steps back, placed her right hand on her chest, knelt on one knee, and solemnly bowed to Sophia.
She will never betray Princess Sofia's trust.
Sophia helped Emily up and prepared a few more bottles for her, making a total of eighteen bottles.
"Your Highness, does our caravan truly only sell [Life Essence Tree Sap]?"
"Yes, didn't I give you the root of the Tree of Life that Lord Distin used yesterday? Juice it, then portion it into thumb-sized bottles. As for the price..."
I originally charged one gold coin per bottle, but Anna said that price was too low and suggested selling it for ten or more gold coins per bottle.
"Your Highness, could you grant me the power to set the price?"
"Sure, you're the caravan leader, I trust you."
Breakfast consisted of two cups of Vitality Tree sap and two slices of bread.
Anna and Emily each drank a glass of Life Tree Juice.
"Your Highness, half of your hair has turned green again..."
"It's fine as long as it's not all green."
So what if her hair turned green? Sofia didn't care anymore.
She stored the life-giving tree sap that Distin had given her into her spatial dragon scales. There was still a lot of sap left in the glass bottle; she would repackage it in the afternoon.
The morning was a bit busy because Dalton brought his daughter Lyra to the castle.
Agriculture Minister Connor also came to collect today's Dragon Fertilizer.
Two other people accompanied Agriculture Secretary Connor.
One male and one female.
