The Bungsu Princess Inferior

13. The Unspoken Miss

I felt the sunlight hit my skin warm, I slowly opened my eyes that felt a little heavy. "Uncle," I said looking at Uncle Ezio sitting beside the bed, there were dark circles under his eyes, probably unable to sleep for a few days.

"Your Majesty, thank goodness." Uncle Ezio smiled at me, his right hand gently caressing the tip of my head. "Princess Aira, what has put you to sleep for so long? You're making us all anxious!"

Uncle Ezio's grumbling made me smile at him, "excuse Aira, Uncle." My eyes went around, I was still in the rain forest palace, there was a protective barrier around my bedroom, I think they added some magic I didn't know.

There was only Uncle Ezio and me, maybe the voice of father and mother I had heard was just a hallucination, maybe it was just the embodiment of my longing for both. There was a feeling of sadness that sank in my heart, but I reminded myself again, now is not the time to cry and whine about meeting my father and mother, because there are still many things I have to finish, including father's punishment. I regained my senses, thirst coming at me. My throat feels so dry like I haven't had a drink in days.

"Uncle, I'm thirsty."

Uncle Ezio swiftly picked up a cup on my bedside table and helped me drink, I gulped it down to nothing left. Oh my goodness I forgot something!

"Where is the silver dragon that drove me Uncle?" I asked to remember the silver dragon I rode, if it was all a dream then even the silver dragon might just be the flower of my dreams.

"Silver dragon? All my life, I've never seen a silver dragon, Your Majesty." Uncle Ezio looked at me, trying to find something in my eyes, I don't know what. Uncle Ezio was often ordered to go to several other empires, he had also been bogus, then if the uncle said that he had never encountered a silver dragon, he had never encountered a silver dragon, then maybe everything that happened during my sleep, was just an ordinary dream, let alone a silver dragon created from my hair and blood? Oh my gosh maybe I've gone crazy hoping it's too high that it's all real!

"There is indeed a prophecy that says that the only antidote to cold poison is the silver dragon's tears." I looked at Uncle Ezio who seemed to be swept away in his own mind.

"But until His Majesty is unconscious, if no servant has ever recovered from the cold poison, it can be concluded that no one has been able to get the silver dragon's tears, perhaps no one has been able to find the existence of the dragon."

Uncle Ezio looked back at me, "why are you asking Your Majesty?"

I hesitated to answer, I suddenly felt a pain at the end of my finger. My reflexes touched my fingertips and to my surprise, there was a dagger incision just like in my dream.

"Uncle please get me the scissors" I said softly, I was consumed by my own curiosity. Without asking, Uncle Ezio flicked his right hand and a small silver scissor appeared in his hand and he immediately gave it to me.

I took the ends of my long black hair that looked a little tangled, cutting it a little. Uncle Ezio watched my entire action in silence, he observed with his eagle eyes. I took a deep breath, and sure enough, my black haircut had now turned silver, like the hair of the 5th empress' grandmother! Then there was the possibility of a silver dragon actually existing!

Uncle Ezio was shocked, he looked at me in disbelief. I remember the way Uncle Ezio called Fia, sometimes he called her by telepathy, sometimes he made a sound calling Fia's name, sometimes he just needed to whistle lightly.

"Silver dragon, please come out!"

From the tip of my finger that was still bearing the incision wound, a silver aura seemed to begin to radiate, growing bigger and bigger until it appeared a huge silver dragon, which was very large, until he had to wrap his tail a few times to fit in my bedroom. Uncle Ezio looked at me and the silver dragon alternately, his gaze between disbelief and probing needing an explanation.

"Honor Your Majesty's servant," The silver dragon lowered his head, saluting me.

"Come here," I patted the bed with my left hand, to my right Uncle Ezio continued to pay attention to the silver dragon, his eyes scouring the entire body of the silver dragon, he looked unwilling to waste the opportunity. The silver dragon complied and placed a third of its head on my bed, right where my left hand had tapped it.

"Thank you for helping me, may I give you a name?" I asked while rubbing his head with my left hand, somehow the scales are not as rough as I imagine it even feels smooth like normal skin but more slippery, the more seen, the more beautiful it looks, the silver sparkle is really amazing.

"From today on I will call you Ryu," I saw his silver eyes glittering happily, my smile expanding to see him. At first Ryu looks big and scary, but it turns out to be adorable!

"Thank you, Your Majesty, I will faithfully serve Your Majesty."

"May you be able to protect those who need your protection, never abuse the power you have Ryu," I moved closer to his head and kissed the tip of his head gently. My rainbow aura enveloped Ryu's head and now left a silver crown on his head, right at the top of the head I kissed.

"It's worth it to you, rest Ryu."

Ryu moved his body, slowly silver light surrounded his body and he disappeared without a trace.

"Your Majesty, don't you have to explain?" Uncle Ezio looked at me probing. "What did you do for almost 5 months asleep?"

I'm surprised, 5 months? oh my God, why so long? Uh the heirloom book prophecy! I just remembered it.

"Uncle please, I'd like to meet Vivian, Edward and if there's a healer" I asked without answering Uncle Ezio's question.

Uncle Ezio took a deep breath, maybe it was a sign that he had to be patient with me because none of the questions I answered. Uncle Ezio flicked his right hand, instantly the protective barrier was gone, featuring Edward, Vivian, Elder Mahanta and Darel sitting lined up facing me. So all this time they were also using me but were blocked by Uncle Ezio's barrier?

"Your Majesty," they gathered in unison to salute me.

"Sit down again, sorry to make you anxious." I corrected my sitting position, then looked again at Uncle Ezio.

"Wait a minute, it'll be here." Said Uncle Ezio as if he knew what I was asking.

A portal appeared at the end of my bedroom, a middle-aged woman I had seen in my dreams, now coming out of the portal, she walked over and bowed in reverence.

"Honor Your Majesty" he said politely. He did not age in the slightest, the wavy silver hair even the green dragon bracelet on his wrist still looked the same as I had seen in the dream.

"Stand up, Mahira."

Everyone in the room seemed surprised to hear my words, maybe they knew that I had never met Mahira before.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, we'll finally meet again." Mahira smiled, her eyes giving a meaningful look. "So His Majesty wants the servant to check on who?"

"Vivian," I answered briefly.

Mahira nodded and immediately approached Vivian, in my head still ringing in the divination written in the heirloom book, just before I traveled through time space.
