Chapter 47 The Swan Castle Master's Head Patting Reward Can Only Be This One Animal...

But no matter how much the paper puppy wanted to stick close to Yu Naixin, it still prioritized its owner's commands.

After a brief period of frolicking, the paper puppy didn't waste any time. It shook its paper ears and reluctantly ran off to other parts of the room as its owner had asked.

Yu Naixin went straight to the bedroom and carefully searched through the princess's most private space.

There was still no trace of a mirror, not even a piece of metal that was large enough to reflect an image.

The format of this episode's copy is quite strict in this regard.

Yu Naixin opened all the drawers and cabinets and looked inside. They were mostly empty. But in the wardrobe in the corner, Yu Naixin made a discovery.

It was a snow-white long dress with a sweetheart neckline and puffy short sleeves. The workmanship and design were intricate and gorgeous, adorned with countless pearls and diamonds, sparkling brilliantly.

The moment anyone sees this dress, they know it's a princess dress, belonging to the princess of Neuschwanstein Castle.

Yu Naixin understood.

In this episode, "clothing" is almost synonymous with "status." If she wears this dress, it means she has truly become a "princess."

Yu Naixin is still wearing the rough uniform of a cleaning maid. She doesn't feel like she can use any of the privileges of a "princess." She probably needs to change her clothes to take control of the princess's power.

However, looking at this dress that symbolized the power and status of the owner of Swan Castle, Yu Naixin was still slightly speechless.

The dress is a bit too big for her.

Yu Naixin had no doubt that if she put on this dress, she would look like a child who had stolen her parents' clothes.

Just as Yu Naixin opened the system's regular shop, preparing to buy a bunch of clips, pins, and other similar items, the paper dog outside sensed its owner's predicament and immediately sent a signal to her.

The paper puppy doesn't have the same autonomy as the priest's folding fan, nor does it possess any true self-awareness; in essence, it's just a machine with a pre-programmed sequence of events.

However, even simple information about receiving and dressing can be conveyed through paper-cut dogs.

It told Yu Naixin that it could help cut clothes.

Yu Naixin: "...!"

Yu Naixin's eyes lit up.

The paper puppy originated from a paper boy, a highly skilled tailor. Yu Naixin had witnessed his craftsmanship, which was so exquisite that it could be called a work of art.

Did the paper-crafted puppy retain the skills of a tailor?

She immediately called the dog over, squatted down, and reached out to pat its head as encouragement: "Keep it up!"

Feeling the warmth of its owner's palm, the paper puppy was so excited that it couldn't even walk straight, and immediately performed a rapid, backwards spin right in front of Yu Naixin.

Wow, this dog is so cute!

[Has it just gotten to know its own limbs? Hahaha, each of its four legs is walking independently, it's almost twisted itself into a pretzel!]

[The female guest has so many special magical artifacts!]

【There's nothing we can do about it; it was all given to the Great Demon King by the guest characters from the last beginner dungeon!】

[Even though the puppy's face is just a smooth sheet of paper, without eyes or a nose, you can still see the super excited expression on its face, hahaha!]

After handing the princess dress over to the dog, Yu Naixin continued her careful search in the bedroom.

Perhaps it's a law of attraction between similar items, but it didn't take long for Yu Naixin to find a silver-white crown to match her princess dress.

However, after that, no matter how hard Yu Naixin searched, she couldn't find a single meaningful item in the bedroom.

The priest, however, found a small notebook on the top of the living room curtains. He quickly placed the notebook on his fan and flew it horizontally to hand it to Yu Naixin.

"Hey, not bad." Yu Naixin also reached out and rubbed the fox head on the priest's folding fan.

Before the priest's folding fan could react, the paper puppy that was cutting out the princess dress behind Yu Naixin with the paper serrations in its mouth suddenly bristled.

It carefully removed the cloth from its mouth, then raised its head, opened its mouth wide at the priest's folding fan, and made several fierce biting motions.

Clearly, the paper puppy signifies that the owner's head-patting reward is reserved for that dog alone, and no other dog is allowed to steal it.

Priest's Folding Fan: "...?"

Is there something wrong with this dog?

Priestess Folding Fan hadn't really taken Yu Naixin's head-rubbing seriously; she was just happy to have received Yu Naixin's affirmation. However, the paper puppy's provocative gesture ignited Priestess Folding Fan's competitive spirit.

The priest stood his folding fan upright, so that the simple ink-wash fox head he had drawn on the fan was directly facing the paper dog. He narrowed his fox eyes, curled the corners of his mouth, and shook his ears, silently showing off and mocking the paper dog.

—Miss Yu is satisfied with me, so what can you do about it?

[Holy crap, what are these two special magical artifacts doing? Are they vying for favor?!]

One is a dog and the other is a fox; both are canines!

[This is hilarious! Is the dog jealous and upset because the little witch touched the fan's head too?]

[I never expected that in this show with four guest stars, the first time I witnessed a chaotic scene would involve two props! Hahahaha!]

[How could such an adorable love triangle scene appear in "Heartbeat 1000%"!]

The paper puppy and the priest's folding fan clashed right next to Yu Naixin, and Yu Naixin herself was certainly aware of it.

However, she ignored them and let them make a fuss, knowing that no matter how much they made a fuss, there wouldn't be any real conflict.

Whether it's a paper puppy or a priest's folding fan, everyone knows that they shouldn't bother their owner or cause trouble for Yu Naixin.

Otherwise, they wouldn't be attacking each other so silently, without moving at all.

Yu Naixin quickly flipped through the entire notebook and found that most of the pages were blank, with only a poem written on the last page.

The handwriting is delicate and neat, seemingly written by a woman.

"The white swan is trapped in the tower, every feather of its feather is a shackle."

"The cry from the depths of the heart is a hopeless lament, and blood and tears only lure in the devil."

"The poison was coated with a bright sugar coating, saying it would go to a happy wedding with me."

"But I just want to wait for the bells to ring, to wait for a slim chance of a miracle."

"Please give me back the right to fly again."

Yu Naixin believes that this poem was written by someone in the identity of a "princess".

"The white swan" is the princess herself, "shackles" is this forced blind date, and "devil" is the four male guests: the vampire duke, the elf prince, the ghost wizard, and the werewolf knight.

The core idea is that the "princess" rejects and fears "shackles" and "demons".

However, Yu Naixin was most concerned about the fourth sentence.

The "miracle" that follows the "ringing of the bells"... most likely refers to the "mirror" that the Elf Prince had been searching for but could not find, which would appear in the castle when the banquet officially began at seven o'clock.
