The black giant dragon that suddenly appeared was rampaging through the forest near Boiling Springs Mountain, igniting a fierce fire.
Charlotte, who had just escaped the crisis and healed her injuries, was not eager to rush back into battle.
After all, the black giant dragon possessed a True Chaos Magic aura that was extremely tricky for her. Approaching rashly would only result in her melting on the spot like ice cream exposed to the scorching sun.
Moreover, the dragon’s size was much larger than any dragon Charlotte had encountered before.
Even if she could ignore the threat of the True Chaos Magic aura, given its colossal size, slaying it would be no easy feat.
Speaking of which, why was this guy so massive?
Neither the azure evil dragon she encountered before nor the red dragon Lillian transformed into was as exaggerated in size as this black giant dragon. It was as if this black giant dragon was the Progenitor Titan.
Wait a minute, she vaguely remembered that in the story of Mom Rhynes and Dad Roland’s second encounter, a creature of similar scale to this black giant dragon had also appeared. However, it had been a long time since Mom Rhynes told her that story, and she had completely forgotten how the two of them had dealt with that big brute.
Fortunately, The Adventures of the Mist Witch, which fully recorded that story, was still with her.
Thinking this, to find a way to defeat the black giant dragon, Charlotte opened her dimensional space, pulled out the thick yellow book, and started looking up the strategy on the spot.
“Witch-sama, what are you doing?” Alice, seeing Charlotte unhurriedly pulling out a yellow book and flipping through it, looked confused.
The little witch before her shouldn’t be the kind of person to sit idly by while a disaster was unfolding.
“Oh, I’m looking for a way to deal with that big brute. Actually, the one who dealt with the evil dragon that appeared here seventeen years ago was my parents.”
“Hmm?” Hearing Charlotte’s words, Alice frowned slightly.
She wasn’t surprised by what Charlotte said. Instead, she showed a high degree of suspicion, as if she knew the truth and suspected Charlotte was lying.
“Did Witch-sama’s parents also participate in that dragon-slaying battle?”
“Yes, they did! If you don’t believe me, I’ll show you the scene right now.”
Under the control of Memory Magic, the yellow book in Charlotte’s hand began to flip rapidly. It finally stopped on a certain page, and a semi-transparent window floated up from the book, showing the scene of Mom Rhynes and Dad Roland fighting the evil dragon side-by-side.
Seeing this, Alice’s eyes widened. Of course, she wasn’t surprised by Charlotte’s marvelous Memory Magic, but by the figures in the image. These figures were extremely familiar to her.
“Father King… Mother Queen… and Master…”
“Ah?” Hearing Alice’s involuntary whisper, Charlotte paused slightly. “Do you know the people in this scene too?”
Alice nodded gently, then pointed at the figures in the scene.
“This is my Father King,” Alice said, pointing at a black-haired swordsman rushing ahead with excitement.
“This is my Mother Queen,” Alice said, pointing at a pinkish-purple-haired witch flying in the sky and throwing numerous fireballs at the evil dragon.
‘Father King, Mother Queen…’ Hearing this, Charlotte suddenly realized that Alice’s way of referring to her parents was strange.
Generally, when introducing one’s parents to an outsider, one would say, “This is my father, this is my mother.” Calling one’s parents “King and Queen” was quite rare.
No, although it was rare, it wasn’t impossible. One type of person would truly say that.
And that was…
“Wait a minute, are you saying you are…”
“Hmm? What’s wrong, Witch-sama? Did I not introduce myself before? I guess I didn’t. I’ll reintroduce myself. I am the Commander of the Holy Knights, and also the First Princess of the Kingdom of York—Alice York.”
Hearing Alice state her full name, Charlotte’s body shook in surprise.
She hadn’t expected the formidable Commander of the Holy Knights to be a noble Princess.
Of course, Charlotte wasn’t scared into kneeling before Alice’s identity. After all, a princess had been competing with her throughout her three years at the Starsea Magic Academy.
That princess was Elsa York.
However, although Elsa was elegant and refined, demonstrating perfect noble etiquette, Charlotte never felt the kind of regal authority one would expect from a princess, possibly because she was already too used to seeing her losing her temper when Charlotte outperformed her.
“Wait a minute, if you’re a princess, then those people in the image must be…”
Charlotte looked at the swordsman rushing ahead and the witch flying in the sky, gasping in shock.
“Speaking of which, those two are the current King and Queen of the Kingdom of York, King York and Queen Gracia York.”
The King and Queen personally leading the frontline of a dragon-slaying campaign—that was terrifying! If the evil dragon had so much as twitched, the entire kingdom might have been changed forever.
“That’s too crazy! Do your royals really love fighting so much?”
Charlotte couldn’t help but complain.
However, Alice wasn’t done with her introduction. She immediately pointed at the blonde witch flying and carrying a person on her broomstick in the scene.
“This is my Master. She’s the one who taught me swordsmanship.”
Seeing this, Charlotte blinked blankly, then tilted her head and asked Alice.
“Are you sure you haven’t made a mistake?”
“My Master’s features are very distinct. There is no one else in the world with such flowing blonde hair. I certainly haven’t mistaken her.
“Uh…” Charlotte hesitated for a moment, then whispered, “I have something to tell you. Actually, she is my mother.”
“Hmm?” Alice stared at Charlotte, completely bewildered, seemingly doubting the truth of Charlotte’s words.
However, no matter how bizarre and unbelievable the claim was, there was no trace of a lie in Charlotte’s eyes.
“My Master, who is such a maternal witch, how can she have such a poor daughter?”
“Even the hair color doesn’t match up!”
“Are you two really mother and daughter?”
“Wait a minute, what are you staring at?” Noticing Alice’s gaze subtly drifting downwards, Charlotte complained about the intrusive princess.
