After being reborn, I was turned into a slave girl by a princess.

"Oh, you don't want to? Then go to McDonald's and have a Happy Meal, there's a little gift included."

"Waaaah!"

……

……

And so, Elusia carried Lonnies and continued onward into the distance.

Chapter 69 Princess Xinglu

The matter concerning Li Qing and the heroes has come to a temporary end.

Upon hearing the news of Lonnies and Elusia's visit, Princess Xing, as the administrator of Drowned Harbor, showed great interest in the girls' arrival. She sent out invitations to everyone, welcoming them to visit the palace at any time.

……

"Well, that's how it is. Princess Xing said that as long as everyone is willing, they can come and visit whenever they want."

"Thank you so much! But Senior Luo Zhisheng, is everything alright with Princess Xing?"

Elusia smiled and asked Luo Zhisheng with considerable curiosity.

Lonnies hadn't forgotten that when they arrived at the Vast Sea, Princess Xing had a strange tumor growing under her body.

That was a curse from the vast sea, which caused Princess Xing's personality to become somewhat skewed and irritable. She even replaced her maids with young and beautiful girls.

But now, Luo Zhisheng simply sighed and said:

"You could say it's healed, but you could also say... it's not healed?"

"Oh?"

"Although Hoshino's personality seems much calmer and more normal than when the curse was active, because he experienced that special feeling, it seems that Hoshino's behavior is something he can't go back to."

"Has the action become more proactive?"

"Yes... Xinglu often disguises herself as a man and goes to various taverns to pick up girls. Now there's an urban legend in the city that says there's a monster disguised as a human to seduce people."

"Oh, you're talking about me, aren't you? I've been going to bars to pick up cute girls lately, so I guess I've been mistaken for someone else too."

The eight-tailed fox shook her large tail, seemingly feeling a sense of kinship with the star deer.

but……

"The eight-tailed fox isn't someone you can just seduce! We have a tradition of polygamy here, or one wife having multiple wives, and the wives you take in are called concubines. So it seems that Xinglu is serious and really wants to build a harem in Nilan Harbor."

"Uh?!"

"I think she might have some unspoken motives for inviting us over, right? After all, both Elusia and Lonnie are great beauties... Even if Hoshino knows some boundaries, she must have some ulterior motive for this party, right?"

As expected of Xinglu's childhood friend, Luo Zhisheng knows her personality and plans almost inside and out.

But upon hearing Luo Zhisheng's words, Elusia nodded: "In that case... we need to pay him a visit even more."

"Uh... junior?"

"Since I, the princess, have not established a harem, how could I possibly allow Princess Xing to do so? Therefore, you foolish concubine, Lonnie, hurry up and join me at the banquet."

"Waaaaah! (This nickname is just too much!)"

……

……

Regardless, the girls also attended the banquet hosted by Princess Xing that night.

Compared to when they first arrived at Drowning Harbor and were ignored, the girls are now receiving much more lavish treatment in Drowning Harbor.

Not only were the guests invited to the high platform in the hall to enjoy a delicious dinner, but right below the platform, many beautiful young women were dressed in gorgeous costumes, singing and dancing enchantingly.

And what about Princess Xing, the "host"? She was also dressed in her finest attire, with exquisite makeup on her face, and greeted everyone almost immediately upon meeting:

"The brave souls who saved Drowning Harbor, you must have worked so hard! Please allow me, on behalf of all the residents of Drowning Harbor, to pay the highest tribute to you."

"You're welcome. It's what we should do. After all, the journey to save the world is also a journey to save ourselves."

"

"Hero Elcia is indeed as humble and intelligent as the rumors say. Hmm... But, is Hero Lonnies, who is the leader, not here today?"

Princess Xing looked around, seemingly searching for Lonnie's whereabouts.

Upon hearing these words, Lonnie blushed and wished she could disappear into the ground... How could she possibly acknowledge her true identity now that she had become such a cute little girl?

After all, when he met Princess Xing back then, he was quite pretentious and summoned five Rainbow Abyss weapons, which scared her to death!

And now...

It's good enough if they don't treat you like a kindergarten kid!

"Well, Heroine Lonnie is currently feeling unwell and can only attend the banquet in this form."

"Could this form be...?"

Princess Xing stared wide-eyed in astonishment at the white-haired little girl who was only waist-high to her.

Whether it's those big eyes or those tiny legs—they're all incredibly cute, just like a little animal, so adorable.

"Waaaaah! (Good evening, Princess Xing.)"

It's impolite not to respond when being stared at.

Lonnie could only respond with sobs, but after uttering those sobs, she felt even more ashamed.

Princess Xing seemed to understand something as well, and exclaimed in surprise:

"Could it be... that the Heroine Lonnies encountered a curse when she ventured deep into the vast sea? Her age was reversed, which is why she turned into a little girl?"

"Although the situations are somewhat similar, this is not a curse, but a blessing?"

"bless……"

"Yes, because the heroine Lonese saved the world, she received a gift from the sun loli goddess Alice, which is why she has temporarily become a little loli. She has also lost the ability to speak and can only make whimpering noises."

Elusia's explanation made Lonnie's cheeks turn even redder—Elusia really knew how to make things up, describing her flirting with such seriousness.

However, upon hearing Elusia's words, Hoshino's body stiffened:

"The Sun Goddess Alice... Could it be that you all have seen the Sun Loli Goddess Alice?"

"Waaah... (Yes...)"

Lonnie nodded slightly. Actually, it wasn't just that she saw her; she had also slept with Alice during her afternoon nap yesterday.

Although Alice may seem like a noble and mysterious being to ordinary people, only her friends know that she is actually just a little girl who loves quiet and sleeping.

Upon hearing Lornes's reply, Princess Xinglu was overjoyed.

She took Lornes's hand and asked solemnly:

"Your Highness Lonnies, now that you have the opportunity to see Alice... there is something I would like to ask you to help me with."

"Huh? (What happened?)"

"Yes, in fact, our ancestors buried a very precious treasure in this ocean."

However, because so much time has passed, no one knows what the treasure was or where it is now.

"Huh?"

"And Princess Lonnie, since you accepted the little girl's blessing, you must also have a chance to learn the whereabouts of the treasure from Princess Alice... Could you please help me? Of course, I'll offer a generous reward!"

Xinglu nodded, a glimmer of hope appearing in her eyes.

Chapter 70 The Legend of the Pirate King

The banquet concluded in a grand and refined atmosphere.

Although Lonnies participated in such gatherings when she was in the Kingdom of Mingjin, can it be said that there are significant differences between Eastern and Western civilizations?

The food, the main theme, and the overall experience of a banquet can be quite different.

It was difficult to judge who was better or worse, and after it was over, Lonnie walked home contentedly.

……

"Wow, I'm having such a great time eating... I even got to eat a big roast duck! This trip was definitely worth it!"

Su Ling blinked, looking very excited, but what excited her even more was what Princess Xing had said before the banquet.

A treasure hunt!

Legend has it that in the history of Nilan Harbor there was a great ancestor who longed for the vast world from the very beginning and sailed the seas in her ships.

She was free-spirited, and although she was sometimes called a pirate, she never cared what others thought. Throughout her life, she explored the world's most wondrous and mysterious places, collecting treasures unimaginable to most.

However, at the height of her fame, she vanished without a trace.

However, a rumor began to circulate among people at some point.

……

"I have buried my treasure deep within the world; set sail, young people!"

……

Thus, countless people have tried to explore and find the treasures that glorify their hometown.

but……

Although many ruins have been discovered in the Drowned Isles, no one has actually found any treasure.

However, this history has been passed down through generations, and even now, Princess Xing still believes that the treasure does exist, and she has spent a lot of money to try to hire girls to search for it.

……

"Although it sounds like a trick to fool children, why does Princess Xing believe it so wholeheartedly?"

Zhou Mixue also sighed slightly. Although she pursued romance, she felt that it was just a rumor and the treasure did not exist at all.
