I Was The Hero, But I Woke Up as a Phoenix Princess! – Chapter 575

Chapter 575: Important Person
Azell’s voice was heard, and Verafia’s delicate fingertips slightly clenched.
“That woman… is she the North Wind Witch? Did she come to find you for a specific reason?”
“Perhaps it was her, but she didn’t do anything, she just stood silently in the distance… as if watching the earth being devoured by the cold, her eyes filled with sadness. Even now, I can’t be sure if it was just a dream.”
Azell chuckled and shook his head.
He took a breath of the slightly cold air, raised his head, and his eyes reflected the slender figure in frost-haired, white robes that reappeared before him in the frost and snow that day. Facing his all-out sword strike, that woman representing “calamity” still watched him calmly.
As if transcending all time and space.
“Sadness…?”
In the air, the girl’s delicate and soft voice, infused with moonlight, played softly. She also slightly lowered her small face, her delicate eyelashes, slightly obscured by her golden eyes, seemed not to understand.
Touching her delicate and soft hair with her slender hand, Verafia raised her scorching gold eyes again: “Then, what happened next… Um, the frost calamity we experienced yesterday, after it disappeared, it was still difficult to leave. Not to mention, you were still a child then. Was it the North Wind Witch who took you away?”
“No.”
Snapping back to reality, Azell smiled at the girl who tilted her small face up: “When I opened my eyes the next day, the North Wind Witch had already left. The one who saved me was Count.”
“Count… Do you mean Count Vinash?”
Azell nodded, confirming her guess.
Verafia slightly turned her head and exchanged a glance with Igter… She could guess the rest of the plot. She was likely adopted by the Count, taught swordsmanship and knowledge, until the Count died in the disastrous defeat of the punitive expedition ten years ago.
“No wonder Azell looked sad when the Count was mentioned just now,” Verafia whispered to Igter. The black-haired young man held her small hand, and with his other hand, he stroked her head and nodded.
“In any case, compared to Miss Verafia’s insights, my past may not be novel, and I apologize for making you laugh.”
Raising his eyes again, the emotions on Azell’s face subsided, and he appeared calm and unfettered.
He then looked at Igter and the golden-haired girl sitting together. The girl slightly brought her slender knees together under her white silk long dress, her small body leaning on Igter’s shoulder, and suddenly asked.
“What about you, Miss Verafia? You seem like a noble lady… but you don’t feel ordinary to me. However, a girl like you, how did you come from your continent to Aller’s continent? Is it for adventure?”
“Young Lady, she is actually a powerful mage, but she was cursed by an enemy. Little Fei and I are accompanying the Young Lady to find the Elf’s Secret Realm and use the Holy Spring to dispel the curse.”
Igter raised his head and said. He had previously discussed these words with the girl to ensure there were no leaks.
After that, Igter briefly talked about his and the girl’s experiences, although he concealed most of the content that should not have been told.
“So, Miss Verafia and Igter have been through so much,” Azell sighed, with a hint of longing in his eyes.
The conversation had been going on for quite some time, and the girl seemed a little tired. Her delicate and soft body leaned slightly into Igter’s embrace, and the flickering firelight touched her pure white, delicate face.
Igter’s face showed a faint smile, his gaze seemed to be immersed in the girl, and his parted fingers gently stroked her smooth, golden radiant hair.
“However, Igter and Miss Verafia, you look like lovers… She must be very important to you, right?”
Igter raised his head and smiled: “Veer, to me, is the most important person in this world. I can’t imagine a day when we are apart.”
“Mmph!”
A shy voice came from his embrace.
The girl in his embrace suddenly raised her small face. Her snow-white, flawless delicate skin seemed to be stained with a shy blush, and a hot flush rose. Verafia felt her small face burn, and her golden eyes, also tinged with shyness, glared fiercely at the young man.
“You guy, what are you talking about here!” After saying that, she pinched the young man’s waist with her fingertips.
Normally, she didn’t mind the young man’s sweet talk. After hearing it, she would feel a little happy after the initial shyness.
But in front of others, it was completely different! It was as if her little heart was exposed to others, and how could she not feel shy when touched by strange glances!
This guy… he must have done this deliberately to make her look foolish!
Verafia grumbled inwardly.
With the girl’s strength, of course, she couldn’t hurt Igter.
Her voice, a mixture of annoyance and tenderness, and her small face flushed with shyness, even her delicate, jade-carved earlobes were tinged with a delicate red glow.
Why did this Young Lady suddenly become shy… But this Young Lady was also very cute.
Igter couldn’t help but curve his lips.
The girl in his embrace, who was once his respected Lord Lothel, and now also the noble Goddess Princess… In his arms, she was a shy girl, which, to be honest, had a contrasting kind of cuteness.
“This, Young Lady, I’m not saying it right. Veer, you should be my only one.” He said softly, gently stroking her beautiful hair.
“Mmph, you idiot, don’t be so sentimental… And, stop playing with my hair!”
Her voice was even more shy, and she almost buried her small face in Igter’s chest: “Also, if I don’t want to part, you guys can’t think about it!”
Oh no, I think my head is burning, and I’m babbling. How did I get led on by this guy?
Verafia felt her small face burning hot, and out of the corner of her golden eyes, she saw Azell across from her also smirking.
It’s all this idiot’s fault, he ruined my persona! I am the hero who saves the world, not a woman who loses her mind when she falls in love!
She clenched her little fists and hit Igter’s chest twice, signaling her dissatisfaction. Verafia shook her head vigorously, trying to cool the blush on her delicate face, and quickly tried to change the subject.
“By the way, Azell, do you have anyone important to you?”
“Important person?”
The red-haired young man was startled. He saw the girl’s beautiful face with lingering blush and a pair of golden eyes shining with anticipation. He knew this was her way of being shy and wanting to change the subject, but without any hesitation, he nodded.
“Yes.”
