As the second heir to the throne, the orders of Her Royal Highness the Seventh Princess were not something that these guards could refute.
Before coming of age, the Seventh Princess had not yet received a title, fiefdom, or military authority; she was merely a member of the royal family without real power. However, after coming of age, her status changed completely. After a period of consolidation, her power would reach its peak, attracting countless retainers and nobles.
It can be predicted that within twenty years, the Seventh Princess will become the most powerful female fairy in the empire, able to compete with her brother, His Royal Highness the Eldest Prince.
Under this circumstance, Xu Xianxian successfully obtained the Blood Natya and registered the sword in the Knights' Court, becoming a fairy knight who legally possessed a powerful magic sword.
In less than a day, Xu Xianxian got the giant sword and armor at the same time, and finally experienced the power of the secret treasure enhancement.
Although her soul level is nine rings, the power she can exert is only five rings.
However, after being equipped with armor and a giant sword, she was able to perform at a level comparable to the Nether Realm's Nine Rings. This was the peak she could reach as a martial artist.
Even more than that.
An eleventh-level martial artist, a user of the Netherworld Force, and a nine-ring fairy.
According to Xu Xianxian's personal experience, these three types are almost in the same class.
"My strength is increasing too fast." Xu Xianxian, clad in golden armor and clutching a giant sword, followed behind the Seventh Princess, but she couldn't help but think, "Instead of working so hard to increase my strength, it's better to rely on powerful external objects to increase it."
Weapons and secret treasures are also a form of power. Loli Xu is not averse to this kind of improvement. Only some weird paranoids will completely reject external things.
"Natalie, your strength is more than just five rings, right?"
Passing through the aisle of the Knights' Court, Ophelia took a few steps around the corner in front, put her hands behind her back, turned around lightly, and then looked at the red-haired fairy holding a giant sword.
The other person's height only reached her shoulders. Because the giant sword was so long, even if he held it diagonally with both hands, it still covered most of the cute little face.
However, the occasional look in those scarlet pupils made Her Royal Highness the Princess a little curious.
"I..." Xu Xianxian decided to play it off. She smiled, her bright red lips curled up in an innocent arc: "Your Highness, I am wearing armor... It has amplification."
"Your mana is only five rings. Even with your special armor, it's only seven rings, right?" Ophelia laughed. That bright smile made Loli Xu feel like she was in spring. "According to common sense, you can't lift this giant sword."
"Well..."
Xu Xianxian's bloodshot eyes rolled around, and dozens of excuses emerged in her mind, trying to get away with it.
But the Seventh Princess' next words choked Loli Xu's lies back into her stomach: "But everyone has secrets. Even as your lord, I won't force you to do anything."
"Also, the stronger you are, the better. You don't need to worry about this aspect. Just reach whatever level you can. The knight is the sword in the lord's hand, and the lord is the knight's support. I hope you understand this."
"Your Highness..."
Xu Xianxian opened her red lips slightly, as if she wanted to say something.
The other party's attitude towards him was very strange. It didn't feel like a superior or a subordinate, but rather like a friend.
"Oh right..." Ophelia stretched out a finger and touched the red lips of the Loli Fairy, looking at her closely: "Have we met somewhere before?"
"Natalie, I feel an inexplicable sense of intimacy with you..."
As Her Royal Highness the Princess, she does not need to hide her emotions in front of the knights and always speaks her mind.
"Well... Actually, I've met Her Royal Highness the Princess before." Xu Xianxian was stunned. Her lips felt the smoothness of the other person's fingers. She subconsciously took a small step back and said with her head lowered, "But it wasn't real. It was in a dream."
"Dream?"
Ophelia thought the other party would stammer and deny it, just like when they talked about the giant sword just now, but she didn't expect the little elf to admit it so readily and asked a question that made her even more confused.
"Yes..."
Xu Xianxian lowered her head, her red curly hair hanging down, and her expression could not be seen, but Ophelia could feel the trembling.
"This is a bit unbelievable, but dreams are very strange. Plus, you are my knight in reserve, so it's understandable that you occasionally dream about me."
Ophelia did not question the truth of the words, but just followed the topic.
"No...it's not just that..." Xu Xianxian shook her head. In the past, she had left no trace, and no one like her. She felt a loneliness that she could only bear on her own. She continued, "It's not occasional, but frequent, like eating and drinking."
The time she spent with her stepsister, Bai Zhen'er, occupied most of her life as long as she could remember. Although their relationship had become distant as adults, it could not erase the time they spent growing up together.
"Oh? Often?" Ophelia stared at the little fairy for a few seconds, then touched his head and asked with a smile, "What kind of dream is that?"
She didn't take it seriously, but it successfully aroused her curiosity.
"This...saying it out loud would offend Her Royal Highness the Princess."
Xu Xianxian shook her head repeatedly, saying that Her Royal Highness the Princess was actually her sister, which was not only an offense to the princess, but also an offense to the entire imperial royal family.
If outsiders heard such presumptuous words, they would probably be dragged to court. ——Xu Xianxian may be bold, but she is not stupid.
