Lotti felt suspicious about the crowd that suddenly separated the two of them.

Could the person who separated them be this dragon lady? The more Lotti thought about it, the more she believed it to be true.

After they were separated, it was most likely this woman who took Lei Yuan away. That was why he could not be found even after they had searched the entire city.

“What nonsense are you talking about?! Where did you come from?” Lotti retorted.

“How do you know him?” Ofia asked the same question. However, she did not ask as aggressively as Lotti did. After all, it was good to be cautious.

The woman was too calm. She would not have been so calm after making a mess in the royal palace if she had been a normal person.

‘We must be careful with her.’

“I came here with him, so why can’t I say that I’m his woman?” The dragon lady said this matter-of-factly. She believed that there was nothing wrong with her statement.

Seeing the tense atmosphere, Lei Yuan hurriedly explained, “After I got separated from Lotti, I met her and a few minor things happened… And now she’s here with me.”

He could not tell them all the details. At the very least, he could not explain himself in front of the dragon lady. Otherwise, Ofia and Lotti would definitely attack her in anger.

The dragon lady was very strong, and even if the three of them teamed up against her, they still would not be able to beat her. Lei Yuan was certain of this.

“So, what happened?” Ofia narrowed her eyes as she suddenly felt threatened. ‘What is he trying to hide?’

“It’s nothing. It’s just a small matter.”

Lei Yuan tried his best to avoid explaining, but the dragon lady answered Ofia, “I had a match with him and he lost. He was supposed to come back with me, but because the food he gave me was only available in your country, I came back with him instead.”

Lei Yuan and the others were speechless, and the whole atmosphere in the palace suddenly became awkward. It sounded ridiculous, but at the same time, it made sense. Lei Yuan felt helpless. He tried his best to help her, but the woman actually exposed herself.

Things were going to be a little troublesome.

Ofia was the first to regain her bearings. She already had a bad impression of the woman. “What do you mean by ‘go back with you’?”

While her attention was somewhere else, this woman had tried to steal her fiancé! In Ofia’s eyes, this was a blatant provocation.

“I told him the rules. If he loses, he has to go back with me. But it’s all the same to me if I go with him,” the dragon lady said in a deadpan.

The emotion Ofia felt was unbearable, and she really wanted to chase this woman of unknown origin out. However, she was brought here by Lei Yuan himself, so she could not easily justify using force on her.

However, Lotti had a bigger temper and did not bother holding it back. She asked in a questioning tone, “You’re a woman, aren’t you? Why did you follow a man you don’t even know back home? Don’t tell me that you’re unaware of what that means.”

She wanted to persuade the woman to leave.

However, the dragon lady ignored her completely. Instead, she looked at Lei Yuan and grabbed his wrist. “What’s interesting in this place? Hurry up and give me a tour.”

Lei Yuan suddenly felt several pairs of eyes on him. Especially those Ofia and Lotti’s, their gazes seemed to say that if he agreed, then…

“Do you even know who is in front of you, you uncivilized thing?!”

Eisen, who was standing at the side, could not stand the dragon lady’s insolence any longer. He had been serving at the Queen’s side for so many years, but this was the first time that he had seen someone so blatantly ignore their Queen. If it was not for the fact that the lady arrived with Lei Yuan, he would have punished her long ago.

“What does she have to do with me? I’m here for this man, not any of you.” The dragon ladywas confused. “Mind your own business, you busybody.”

Her tone brought forth the anger that Eisen had been suppressing all this time.

‘How dare she call me a busybody? I have been the Queen’s knight for so many years. This is the first time that I have been called a busybody!’

Eisen did not care about his chivalry anymore. He raised his sword and attacked the woman. Lei Yuan could not react in time to stop him.

‘It will be troublesome if they fight!’

He was not worried about the dragon lady, but about Eisen instead. The woman’s martial skill was very strong, and her attacks were also nimble. What if she killed him in one move?

The fight ended in an instant.

Even Lei Yuan could not see what exactly had happened. The dragon lady turned around, and the knight, alongside his sword, was thrown to the ground. Eisen’s sword strike did not hurt her at all.

“Don’t bother me, or I’ll take your life,” said the dragon lady coldly, then she continued to ask Lei Yuan about the fun and delicious foods in the area.

Ofia immediately felt wary at how easily she dealt with Eisen. The woman was much stronger than she had expected.

Ofia had thought that this was just a strange woman with dragon horns. She did not expect that the dragon lady could subdue her capable subordinate so easily.

‘This woman…’

“How dare you retaliate?!” Eisen’s face turned red from embarrassment.

This was the first time he had lost to a woman, and other than the Queen, this was the first time a woman had threatened his life!

“Why can’t I retaliate? You attacked me first.”

Seeing that the two of them were about to quarrel again, Lei Yuan immediately stood between the two of them to prevent further dispute. He advised, “Calm down. This is all just a misunderstanding. Eisen, escort Her Majesty and Ambassador Lotti back to their rooms and leave this to me.”

If Eisen had really fought with the dragon lady, he believed that the entire palace would probably be destroyed.

Eisen did not actually want to leave, but since it was Lei Yuan making the request, he agreed. Ofia, who had realized the seriousness of the matter, did not refuse.

However, Lotti was still unconvinced. “Humph! I’ve been looking for you for so long, and you were having a private meeting with another woman? Lei Yuan, are you even ashamed?”

Lei Yuan was speechless.

Why would he be ashamed of himself? Firstly, he did not have a partner. Secondly, he was not going to do whatever it was she was thinking about.

“Ambassador Lotti, please follow me back.” Ofia knew that things were not as simple as they seemed, so she temporarily reconciled with Lotti.

After the three of them left, Lei Yuan brought the dragon lady back to his residence. Along the way, he asked her some questions. “What’s your name?” She had followed him all the way here, yet, he still did not know her name.

The dragon ladyconsidered how to answer for a long time. “I don’t have a name. You can call me whatever you want.”

Once again, Lei Yuan was speechless.

This woman was really too strange. She was clearly very capable, but she was as pure as a blank sheet. Her curiosity about basic furniture was the best proof of that. Everyone knew what tables and chairs were for, but she actually inspected those everyday things.

“So, who were those people just now?” The woman seemed displeased. “They don’t seem to like me.”

Lei Yuan felt a wave of killing intent rising from the dragon lady. He immediately bought some desserts from the system store and handed them to her. “It’s okay. You just arrived, so it’s normal for all of you to not be familiar with each other yet.”

At the very least, they could not clash with her now.

The woman was very satisfied with the dessert and did not ask any further questions.

After arranging a room for her, Lei Yuan immediately went to the Queen’s residence for a discussion.
