The Demon Princess Was Defeated and Captured Sorry, That’s the Role I’m Playing – Chapter 183

Chapter: 33. Retreat!

“[Dark New Star].”

Princess Xue Fei clapped her hands, shaking off shimmering black magic particles like stars.

Then she rested her finger on her chin and looked up in thought.

“Hmm? I remember I should have demonstrated this magic in the Gladiatorial Arena, right? Oh right, you weren’t there at that time, Fire Lizard.”

“I wish I had been there… cough… cough cough, damn it…”

It’s no wonder that’s the physique of the Fire Dragon Clan.

[Dark New Star] is an enormous spell that Princess Xue Fei releases after compressing one percent of her own magic power.

Although she deliberately directed the spell far away from Timani and didn’t let the explosion touch her—indeed, the explosion point was hundreds of meters away from her—any ordinary expert, even just from the residual impact of the magic, would be knocked incapacitated and likely would carry an irreparable shadow for a lifetime.

While there was still panic and a desire to survive in Timani’s eyes, she surprisingly could still manage a bitter smile to keep her consciousness clear.

That’s definitely an impressive achievement.

With such a huge commotion, the noise in the Demon King’s Castle gradually subsided; no one dared to approach. It should be Princess Belis keeping the peace there.

Xial squatted beside Timani, poking her face full of collagen with her finger, happily laughing.

“Pfft… Timani, how come you got knocked down again!”

“You…!”

“Don’t be so fierce! We’ve told you, your Domain Magic is flashy but impractical; its range is big, but it doesn’t have much lethality! If you really want to get stronger, you need me to teach you the true essence of magic!”

“I don’t need that…”

“Stubborn! If you don’t want to learn, I won’t bother to teach you! Hmph!”

Xial was influenced by Princess Xue Fei recently taking on the role of a teacher, thus she wanted to take her mother as an example to become more valuable.

Who knew this Fire Lizard would outright refuse!

While Timani said she didn’t need it, realistically, she didn’t necessarily think so.

To get someone who is inherently proud to seek a master for guidance probably requires significant inner struggle.

However, a strong person experiencing two consecutive defeats in a short period, both to someone who looks like a young girl!

How could she not consider whether she truly should start learning magic from scratch again…

Xiya noticed tears rolling down Timani’s face, probably due to her struggle and shame when trying to stand up but realizing she couldn’t move at all.

Xial sniffed and stood up, sharing her unique insights to retaliate for just being rejected.

“We can explain this phenomenon. For an expert, being defeated is not terrifying; what’s terrifying is being defeated and unable to quickly retreat from the battlefield. Just like Timani lying here unable to move, don’t let the blanket fool you, it’s just as shameful as being exposed without clothes while being stared at and unable to move; this is the sorrow of experts.”

“Can you stop explaining?!”

“Ah…! Princess Xue Fei, look, she still has strength!”

Isn’t that rolling over and sitting up with gritted teeth?

Uh… the sound of bones creaking seems a bit ominous?

Timani wrapped in the blanket sat up, looking down, embarrassed to continue retorting.

Losers must have the appearance of losers; who can behave like Princess Xue Fei, maintaining such shamelessness even after being defeated in the kingdom!

Hmm…? Defeated in the kingdom?

Timani stared blankly at Princess Xue Fei, her eyes filled with confusion.

“Wait… if you have that strength, why did you lose to Xialet back then?”

“I was acting.”

“You were acting…! You’re not a theatrical artist, what do you mean acting?!”

“So me acting is bothering you, huh?! Why do you care so much every day!”

Damn it!

Timani’s previous assessment of the Demon Princess’s strength largely relied on the fact that she had once been defeated by a Hero.

Timani estimated Xialet’s strength to be slightly stronger than her own but not significantly so.

That’s why she thought Princess Xue Fei should not be able to defeat her.

Who would have thought you were an abstract art performer!

No, she should have known earlier.

This guy always had this kind of expression.

Seeing Timani’s expression twisting more and more, it seemed she would soon drown herself, and Xiya hurriedly gave a “kind” look to signal Xue Fei to shut her mouth; that little mouth really would stir up trouble.

After Princess Xue Fei folded her wings and whistled, treating it as if it were none of her business, Xiya bent over with a bitter smile and asked Timani a fundamental question.

“I just figured out the reason for your battle, so Ms. Timani, can you understand where Princess Xue Fei gets her confidence in saying she wants to go to the Northern Region Flame Land? Although for me to say this might sound a bit self-congratulatory… but Xiaya is absolutely a responsible person who knows her limits; she would not venture into something beyond her ability.”

“I understand the reasoning… but why do you say it’s ‘self-congratulatory’ when praising Princess Xue Fei?”

“Isn’t complimenting Princess Xue Fei a form of self-congratulation?! Tsk, why is it so hard to communicate across races? Ms. Timani, don’t you understand the key point!”

“The key point… ah, I know! You just realized our reason for fighting, you really are dumb!”

“I really am…!”

“Hero, calm down! Calm down! She’s an injured person!”

Xial jumped up and hugged Xiya’s raised arm, urging her not to cause secondary harm to the injured.

If you kill her, Princess Xue Fei will definitely accuse us of having poked her face to death!

With the usually good-tempered Xiya angered and pushed aside, Timani finally composed herself enough to look up at the face of Princess Xue Fei, who was ordinarily small but required her to look up while sitting.

“So… that move just now was indeed your trump card and full power, right?”

“Well, not quite…”

“If that were the case… it could indeed rival the elders. Hmm, I admit, I was short-sighted. Princess Xue Fei, you are strong; you truly don’t need me to nitpick when going to the Northern Region Flame Land, but I still advise you to plan well, find suitable allies as much as possible, and not to be careless. Even in a balanced battle, carelessness may come at a price.”

“I mean… can you not give a long monologue before I finish speaking? I never said that this was my trump card!”

“Snow… Xue Fei?” Xiya had a bad premonition, “You aren’t going to…”

“There’s no choice; she’s just so stubborn. I really didn’t expect she couldn’t understand the situation even after that move. Anyway, Fire Lizard, I told you I considered you a friend, so I’m telling you this. After watching it, don’t be ungrateful and keep it a secret for me.”

“Tell… what do you want me to look at?”

Oh no!

“Xial!”

“We know! Hero, prepare to retreat!”

[Super Acceleration] [Instant Teleportation]

Timani was dumbfounded.

Because Xial and Xialet seemed to have foreseen some dangerous situation, they instantly left the spot and reappeared at least five hundred meters away.

What… what happened?

Princess Xue Fei crossed her arms in front of herself.

Dark magic particles surged behind her once again.

Six black wings gradually floated in the swirling magic.

Moreover… it didn’t end with the sixth wing’s appearance.

As that vaguely visible eighth wing gradually took shape, Timani felt a churn in her stomach, and a wave of dizziness followed.

It was intensifying.

Xiya let out a sigh of relief.

Phew… thankfully they ran fast enough this time. That forced vomit feeling was unbearable, even crazier than the roller coasters of my past life.

But it felt like she had forgotten something important when they evacuated just now?

But since she couldn’t recall it, it must not be that important, right?

Uh, wait…

“Oh no!”

“What happened, Hero? Shouting so loud, the magic vortex’s influence won’t be that far.”

“No, Princess Livra is still lying there!”

“!”

As the dignified first princess of the demon tribe, is it unreasonable to desire a quiet life, spending my days sipping tea and enjoying the view? Yet, my fellow demons incessantly urge me to engage in warfare, insisting I conquer enemy kingdoms. Who could tolerate such demands? I’ve had enough!! If they’re so eager for battles, why don’t they fight themselves? As someone who longs for peace as a reincarnated being, all I crave is to be lazy and sleep! Thankfully, a kind-hearted brave girl has offered me shelter at her home.
