Although it is a bit shabby, this heroic spirit is super strong

But the other party just smiled slightly and said nothing.

"Xiao, you wouldn't do anything weird to my sister, would you?"

"I really didn't do anything."

Facing the aggressive Yuliana, Xiao, who was completely confused about the situation, felt a little wronged.

"Sister Yuuri, what's your relationship with Mr. Akatsuki? I've heard that too. Could Mr. Akatsuki be the adventurer who brought you back to protect you?"

"I, this guy and I are just friends, it's not what you think!"

"Eh? Pfft! I didn't expect that my sister has changed so much in this time. She used to always like to quote my father's words that the royal family doesn't need friends."

"Wow! I, I..."

Yuliana blushed, unable to refute Cecilia at all.

This was the first time in her life that she had the valuable experience of having her dark history exposed by someone very close to her.

"Alas, I seem to be like my sister, becoming friends with Ms. Yui and Ms. Saori, instead of having tea and chatting about girly things."

Because the travelers summoned from the other world all possess magical powers far beyond those of ordinary people, Yuliana and Simmons tried their best to prevent Cecilia from coming into contact with them.

"Don't worry, when you recover, I will take you with me even if you don't want to go."

"Well, it's a deal then."

Yuliana did not miss the melancholy that flashed across her sister's face, and looked helplessly at the two people behind her.

"Your Highness, may I now allow Raynesia to begin examining Her Highness Cecilia?"

"There's no one else here, so there's no need to add 'Your Highness' or anything like that. Now, hearing you address me so respectfully, it actually gives me goosebumps."

"It's not going to get that far, is it? Raynesia, please start."

Cecilia, who was originally still shocked by her sister's natural contact, was immediately attracted by the blue ball of light in Raynesia's hand.

The blue light spread throughout her body, making her feel completely comfortable.

After a while, she fell asleep exhausted in this gentle light.

After finishing Cecilia's examination, the three of them came out of the room.

"She was just too tired, so she fell asleep. You don't have to worry so much."

"Well...but..."

"Ms. Yuri. I hope you can be mentally prepared."

Ignoring Juliana's uneasiness, Cecilia stood in front of her very seriously.

Although Xiao wanted to stop Raynesia, he thought for a moment and decided not to interrupt her.

"You, what do you mean?"

"According to the collected medical records, there should have been no patients with Magic Crystal Syndrome in the past who would have experienced a condition like Miss Cecilia.

Most people die early in the disease from organ failure or complications such as cardiovascular and cerebrovascular blockages."

"Why... is that so?"

"So please rest assured, your sister will at least not encounter such an emergency."

"What does it mean?"

Looking at Raynesia's gentle smile, Yuliana felt a little surprised.

"I suspect there's some special mechanism in your sister's body, or some special being seems to be protecting her. The specific situation will require further detailed investigation."

"Is that so?"

"Yes. If possible, I suggest taking Cecilia to Nidhogg for a thorough examination and treatment. However, this is of course premised on your permission."

Raynesia suggested this out of curiosity about Cecilia's condition.

Cecilia's body cells' ability to metabolize and store magic power is much stronger than that of ordinary people in this world.

It should be impossible for Magic Crystal Syndrome, a disease caused by the inability to adapt to magic power, to occur.

So Raynesia speculated that the problem lay at the level of Cecilia's soul.

If she could generate enough magical power that even this body couldn't store and metabolize, then Cecilia was likely to possess a soul far more powerful than that of an ordinary person.

However, the body Raynesia was currently using did not have the necessary soul-related inspection equipment, so further inspections would require Cecilia to be brought back to Nidhogg.

"I understand. I will try my best to convince my father. But the matter of Saisi is troublesome."

After leaving Cecilia's residence, Gis found Yuliana and asked her to visit Simmons.

"come in."

"Father, what do you want from me?"

"You're trying to win over Xiao, right?"

Yuliana sighed deeply.

"You know we're in desperate need of combat power right now, right? Even if it's just to serve as a deterrent, I hope he and his companions can stay in Elvira."

"Father, please do not think of using Akatsuki."

"Are you saying this as a woman, or as a princess of Elvira?"

"I am a princess of a country. If I try to please him, I will probably only alienate him. Trying to use his power is just playing with fire and getting burned.

Therefore, our current relationship with Akatsuki is just right."

Simmons was very surprised by Yuliana's answer.

"Can the power he possesses reach this level?"

"I can't explain it to you in detail, but judging by what he said, even destroying the empire would be child's play."

With only one battleship, Nidhogg, Yuliana felt that even if all the military forces of the entire Western Continent were assembled, they would not be able to compete, right?

What's even more terrifying is that after witnessing Akatsuki's destruction of the Wyatt Family and hearing Crystal and others mention the reasons for the decline of the Hobbs Family, Yuliana believes that Akatsuki has enough means to use this powerful force.

"You really are a troublemaker."

"That's what I thought. But I'm still very grateful to him for helping me."

"What do you think of him?"

"Father, what do you mean by this? Do you want to..."

"Don't you understand me? I will never use you two sisters as tools for political marriage."

"But didn't you agree to Cecilia and Okita's engagement before?"

"I'm so sorry about that. I've already made arrangements to clean up the mess, but... never mind. Now, all this sounds like excuses to you, right? So, what do you really think?"

"Rather than liking him, I think I'm more admiring him."

Yuliana thought very seriously and tried to describe her vague feelings towards Akatsuki.

She is very happy and unfortunate. Although she is a caged bird named Princess, she is fortunate to see the vast blue sky under Simmons' care.

But after all, she couldn't fly freely in the blue sky like other people.

So when she saw Xiao, who was completely irresponsible to them, the nobles, and lived a completely casual life without caring about their status and other annoying things, Yuliana was extremely envious and longing for him.

"Admiration? It won't turn into that kind of emotion in the future, right?"

"Well, I can't promise that... So, what exactly do you want to say, father?"

"Uh... I was thinking that if he is worthy of you and you two are willing, although I will be very sad, I will do my best to help you."

Under his daughter's questioning, the king lost all his dignity and stammered to explain his intentions.

"Ah, Father, you're still the same. You should be more concerned about Cecilia than worrying about me."

Yuliana recalled her sister's shy look, and it was obvious that she had some thoughts about the female trapper Akatsuki.

She originally didn't believe that there was such a thing as love at first sight in the world.

But seeing her sister's expression, Yuliana could no longer make the same assertion as before.

"What does this mean? What happened to Ceci?"

"Well... she'll tell you later. I have something important to discuss with you about Cece."

"This... I know, tell me."

"In order to treat Saisi, I hope to take her away from the capital."

"Is that so... I get it. You must be careful."

After pondering for a moment, Simmons gave Yuliana permission.

The next day.

"Sister, what is this? It looks delicious."

On the streets of the royal capital, Cecilia, sitting in a wheelchair, looked curiously at the candy stand not far away.

"Xixi, you can't eat anything right now. Let's get together again after you recover, okay?"

"Hmm... I see. So, is it a deal?"

"When the time comes, bring Yui and Saori, as well as Rosalie and Lydia along."

"Hehe, if everyone comes out together, I feel like it will cause a big commotion."

Cecilia imagined the guards and ministers' panic as they searched for everyone and laughed mischievously.

"Don't worry, Xiao will definitely help, right?"

"Well, if the compensation is appropriate, then of course there is no problem."

"You guys, are you still short of money now?"

Chapter 160 Dangerous Reincarnation

Yuliana asked Xiao somewhat displeasedly.

“Reward doesn’t necessarily have to be money.”

"So, what do you want?"

Seeing her sister blushing shyly while chatting with Xiao, Cecilia puffed up her cheeks in displeasure.

"Wow! Why is Mr. Xiao so good at putting makeup on girls? Even Miss Belinda can't do this."

Belinda is the head maid who is responsible for taking care of Cecilia and is very good at helping people put on makeup.

But she still couldn't match Akatsuki's skills.

Now Cecilia's hair has turned into smooth black hair, and the lines on her face and neck caused by the magic crystals are perfectly covered by foundation.

Yuliana also has black hair now, and Xiao has added a few freckles to her face.

"Well... I was forced to learn this before."

"Could it be Miss Crystal and the others? Was Mr. Xiao also responsible for their makeup last night?"

"Not really. They refused the maid last night and prepared it themselves."

"Well... I didn't see them this morning, which is a bit disappointing."

"Sorry, Lucy and Wendy just couldn't stand those perverts who only knew how to sexually harass us, so I asked them to go back to where we were going today last night."

Xiao recalled last night, when Wendy, who was somewhat socially anxious, and Lucy, who had a physical aversion to men in general, were surrounded by a group of young noble men, and smiled bitterly.

[No, what gender does that girl classify me as in her mind?]

"Is that so? I'm so sorry. This was clearly a thank-you party for you, but it made Miss Lucy and Miss Wendy feel unhappy."
