You sneaked into my simulation world and started spamming the panel?

She secretly glanced at Lotte, who was fishing beside her, and a smile crept onto her lips.

In her previous life, Lotte perished along with the three dragons in order to help her escape.

Fafnya carried a heavy burden of fate alone, and more than ten years passed by.

She missed the days in the valley, where she didn't have to worry about who would eat her, since she could just self-destruct with Lotte; she didn't have to worry about her future fate, and Lotte could feed her.

After she obtained the skills she wanted, she finally returned to the valley.

The warm valley that once glowed with firelight in my memory is now only desolate.

The dragon's remains were covered in moss and forgotten in the valley.

Fafnya ate her last meal in front of the remains, and then chose to end her life.

With her death, everything here came back to life.

She spent an extremely long month in reality before the world of deduction was opened.

The valley was filled with life again, and Lotte appeared before her.

Lotte noticed that Fafnya was staring at him, which made him feel a little uneasy.

"Fafnia, once you've healed, leave this place as soon as possible."

"Oh." Fafnya splashed her feet in the water. "Do you want to come with me?"

"Do not."

After saving Fafnya—no, after Fafnya saved herself—Lotte didn't need to stay by Fafnya's side all the time.

If he were to go to school, it would take a long time, and Fafnya couldn't stay by his side doing nothing all the time.

Upon hearing Lotte's refusal, Fafnya stopped shaking her feet.

She kept combing her hair to relieve her anxiety.

“Lotte, you saved my life, I can’t just do nothing.”

Lott thought he was hopeless.

"It would be fine if you sent me a letter occasionally."

"No. Come with me, come with me, and I'll make you stronger."

Lotte turned her head to look at Fafnya, whose lips still had a little bit of oil on them.

"Lady Fafnya, it seems I'm stronger than you now?"

Seeing that she couldn't persuade Lot, Fafnya made a tough decision and revealed her most important secret: "I have the ability to evolve."

Evolution is an ability that dragons dream of, and it is extremely rare.

Dragons, possessing the ability to evolve, can devour other species, acquire their characteristics, and strengthen their own bodies, constantly evolving.

The last dragon with the ability to evolve was the [Legendary] dragon Callistos.

Any dragon, upon hearing the word "evolution," will understand what that word represents.

But the surprise that Fafnya had anticipated did not occur; Lotte remained calmly seated, fishing.

Fafnya thought Lot hadn't heard her, so she walked barefoot to Lot's side and whispered in his ear, "I have the ability to evolve."

"I heard you, don't talk in my ear."

Lotte had no idea what evolution was, as he himself said, he had never been a dragon.

Faced with Lot's unmoved attitude, Fafnya was completely at a loss.

She hadn't expected Lott to have such a strong inner strength.

"Lotte, if you're not coming with me, where are you going? Or are you going to stay in the valley?"

"Human territory".

“I’m going to that place too, perfect timing.”

"Are you going too?"

Lotte raised an eyebrow slightly, feeling that he couldn't shake off Fafnya.

Fafnya said, "After I devour monsters, I need the magic power within magic crystals to evolve my body. Therefore, I need a large number of magic crystals, and it's very worthwhile to steal them from humans. What are you going there for?"

"I'm going to learn human magic. I'll see if I can get into school."

Human magic?

Fafnya felt that Lott didn't seem to be joking.

In her previous life, she had been to human territory. If her identity were exposed, humans would either flee or attack. Humans and dragons could never coexist.

As for going to school, that's even more impossible.

Leaving aside the discrimination humans face against dragons, the magic academy itself suffers from severe class discrimination, with first-year students often being bullied.

Not to mention Lotte, who disguises himself as a human and has no background; once he enters the academy, his life will completely fall into an abyss.

Fafnya didn't rush to shatter Lotte's fantasy. She tilted her head slightly and smiled, "Then shall we go together? To Orlandis City, where there is a Royal Magic Academy for humans."

Only when Lott sees the cruelty of reality firsthand will he turn back.

then……

Follow me on the path of evolution.

“Aurantis?” Lott raised an eyebrow. “Alright, when do we set off?”

"now."

Chapter 99 leads Lot step by step into the abyss.

The proxy failed, please try again later.

Chapter 100: The first thing the dragon did after becoming a dragon was to kidnap the princess.

The city of Orlandis was packed with people.

Today is the day the Imperial Princess comes to the border to inspect the garrison. The Imperial capital is very far from Orantis, and ordinary people can't get there in their entire lives. This is their only chance to see the princess.

The vast majority of the people, having retired from their homes, secretly wished to bask in the breeze emanating from the capital.

Princess Elizabeth sat in her luxurious carriage, looking towards the cheering crowds in the street.

Orlandis is a very large city, and the sheer number of people and vehicles meant that by midday, the carriage still hadn't reached the lord's castle.

The princess lowered the curtains, and the smile on her face disappeared.

"Damn it, I'm starving! Why aren't we there yet? Tilia, just drive the carriage right there! This princess is going to eat!"

"Your Highness, please wait patiently for a moment. This trip is an opportunity for you to enhance your political prestige."

"What's more important than eating? What do I care about these fools? I even saw half-elves and dwarves in the group. It's disgusting."

The princess believed that her bloodline was noble, making her one of the most special beings among humans.

But this world also has other races, such as elves, dwarves, dragons, and so on, which makes the princess feel that her proud human bloodline is meaningless.

Therefore, she hated foreign races and wished she could kill them all.

“Your Highness, that’s how it is in Orlandis. There were even rumors a few days ago that dragons exist in the forests beyond the border.”

"What? My damned father still sent me here? What if I get kidnapped by a dragon?"

"Rest assured, the Valgard family will stay by our side and protect you. Moreover, there is a very hidden underground fortress in the lord's castle, so it's very safe."

The princess clicked her tongue and placed her foot on the table, where the exquisite white flour was embroidered with royal gold stripes.

"Dwarves deserve to die, elves deserve to die, dragons deserve to die. All of them should die."

"Your Highness, you must never say these things in front of others."

"Okay, you're so long-winded. Wake me up when we get there."

The princess rested her face on her hand, preparing to take a nap and find something to eat in her dream.

But soon the noise outside grew louder and louder, making it hard for her to sleep.

"What's going on? Have those people gone mad?"

"Your Highness, it's alright, please continue sleeping."

But the princess clearly felt the carriage speed up considerably and run over something, lifting her into the air before she fell heavily back down.

The princess lay sprawled awkwardly on her seat, yelling, "What's going on?! If you keep driving like that, I'll kill you!"

"Your Highness, please sit still and do not draw back the curtain!"

"I want it!"

The princess suddenly pulled back the curtain and saw that the crowd that had been lined up in two rows to welcome them had become a complete mess, with people jostling and pushing each other as they desperately tried to escape.

The jolt of the carriage just now was caused by it running over the group of people who had fallen.

The princess's eyes widened, vaguely sensing something was wrong. She looked up at the sky and spotted a dark figure.

The dark shadow blocked out the sun, its cold, vertical gaze sweeping over everyone in the sky above Orantis, finally settling on the carriage where the princess was.

Dragon!

The princess quickly pulled the curtains shut and hid on the other side of the carriage, her legs digging into the soft sofa opposite her. "Run! It's definitely here to catch me! Hurry! If I die, you will all be buried with me!"

The carriage wheels spun wildly, the carriage body jolted and bounced, causing the princess inside to leap up as well.

But she wouldn't scold people for such things now.

"Damn it! What are the Valgard family doing? They're all useless, and the garrison is useless too. How did such a huge dragon get in?! I even offered them some words of comfort, but do they even deserve any comfort? When I get back, I'll have my father kill all the garrison! Kill them all!"

The princess turned pale with fright, and she kept cursing, trying to vent her inner fear.

She didn't dare look outside and could only curl up.

Fortunately, the carriage entered the castle, and the solid stone walls and heavily guarded soldiers made her breathe a sigh of relief.

A voice from the guards sounded outside the door, "Your Highness, we apologize for startling you. The creature is merely a sub-adult dragon, and its strength is not particularly great. We have already gathered our forces to subdue it."

"Cut off its dragon head for me, I want to hang it above my bed."

"As ordered."

Even if it were actually cut off, the princess wouldn't dare hang it by the bedside.

She needs to present herself as a princess who is "fearless of dragons and brave and resilient" in front of the guards in order to win their favor.

You can criticize them behind their backs, but you still have to put on a show in public.

The garrison commander continued, “Your Highness, most of the city’s forces have been engaged in the battle against the dragon. The city’s surveillance arrays are issuing frequent warnings, indicating that many outsiders are taking advantage of the situation to invade. I am concerned that someone might try to attack you. Please move to the underground fortress; it is absolutely safe there.”

"I will stay in the city with the soldiers of the People's Trust. With the garrison of Orantis and the heroes of House Valgard here, I do not believe that the dragon can harm me."

The guard kneeling outside the carriage felt the princess's sincerity. He was deeply moved, bowed his head, and said with tears in his eyes, "I understand. We will definitely defeat that dragon."

Ok?

What do you understand?

The princess gritted her teeth, wishing she could kick the guard outside the carriage off the head.

I just said it casually, how dare you agree? If anything happens to me, your whole family will be killed.

This wasn't because the garrison blindly followed the princess's orders, but because they had confidence in themselves.

This is, after all, the city of Orantis, with reconnaissance and defense arrays, so there's no way the dragon in the sky could capture the princess.

The outsiders who managed to sneak into the city were nothing more than petty thieves and vagrants. As long as the princess remained in the castle, there was nothing to fear.

At the critical moment, it was the groom and bodyguard who spoke up: "Your Highness, your life is the most important. Let's go to the underground fortress."

“People will laugh at me,” the princess stubbornly insisted. “As soon as the dragon came, I hid underground.”

Only after the stable boy insisted did the princess reluctantly agree.

She stepped down from the carriage, waved to every guard in the castle, and walked towards the underground fortress under their watchful eyes.

In Isolde's world of deduction, this was once the place where the dragon Callistos set up a giant sacrificial array.
