80. Will the Dragon-Slaying Princess’s Descendants Truly Become Dragons?

Agatha, the Dragon-Slaying Princess, the only hero in the kingdom’s history to slay a dragon while holding the title of princess.

Though she passed away at the tender age of 23 due to an unknown illness, this only added to the drama of her life, which has been adapted into numerous books and biographies.

Her life was as brilliant and fleeting as a shooting star; even her untimely death gave rise to a mysterious rumor that the goddess admired her valor and took her away to witness it up close.

— Of course, this was merely a narrative spun by those with ulterior motives.

In truth, Agatha died in the internal strife of a power struggle for the throne, her demise caused by poison.

Despite her exceptional martial prowess and decisiveness, Agatha was not devoid of intellect; she was well aware of the need to guard against her strong-willed siblings who coveted the throne.

However, she never anticipated that the one who poisoned her would be her gentlest and most caring sister.

Of course, the Agatha present here is 21 years old and has not yet experienced the death that would come at 23.

She knows the cause of her death because the goddess revealed it to her.

Thus, Agatha resolved to uncover the truth after completing the task assigned by the goddess.

Her relationship with her sister was so close, akin to that of siblings born of the same mother; how could she possibly wish her harm?

Surely, she must have been coerced, especially since some of her brothers had such personalities.

Agatha’s friendliness towards Valentina, even addressing her as sister, stemmed from what the kind and gentle commoner Clyde had told her—that Valentina’s relationships with her siblings were not good.

This sense of shared circumstance fostered a feeling of closeness, prompting Agatha to care more than she typically would.

The goddess had entrusted her with the task of eradicating evil, and she must also assist her descendants.

Now that she was of age, she chose to embrace it all.

Therefore, Agatha would not let go of those who troubled the goddess, attempted to attack her descendant Valentina, and sought to disrupt human society.

Most importantly, these events aligned perfectly with Agatha’s personal beliefs.

Indeed, all beings outside of humanity were inferior creatures that must be reduced or even completely eradicated for humanity to advance further.

Especially the particularly powerful dragon and demon races; their strength was undoubtedly due to their usurpation of resources that rightfully belonged to humans. Why not eliminate them all without delay?

“…I may have said a bit too much, huh, but it doesn’t matter, you’re going to die anyway.”

Agatha failed to notice the subtle shift occurring in Valentina’s heart nearby.

Her focus was solely on the demons before her, who were not her kin.

Even as one of them knelt on the ground, a severed arm and gasping for breath, appearing gravely wounded and on the brink of death, Agatha felt not an ounce of pity; instead, she regarded him with a gaze filled with disdain and contempt.

The demon male, treated in such a manner, was left utterly speechless.

Before him stood a golden-haired princess who was nothing short of a monster, abnormal in both body and ideology; he could hardly fathom why the goddess would choose such a woman as her messenger.

Or… is the goddess just as abnormal as this woman?

The demon male didn’t know, he only knew that Agatha would eventually self-destruct, even if she really killed their demon king, Lord Allen.

Therefore, he didn’t need to say anything more, he would just go to another world and wait to see her joke.

… Speaking of which, if he went to another world, he would definitely be beaten up by the three companions who went ahead of him.

… Ha! That wouldn’t be bad either!

The demon male, who had come to terms with it, no longer looked at the dragon-slaying princess in front of him, but gradually showed an ugly smile and lowered his head, voluntarily allowing Agatha to cut off his head with the famous sword in her hand.

Seeing the demon male’s silence and such actions, Agatha thought that he had finally realized that he was just trash, a waste of resources, and an inferior race.

Therefore, she slowly raised the famous sword in her hand, and with a domineering and cold expression, like a queen who ruled with an iron fist, she said:

“Farewell, you inferior race. Don’t worry, as long as you are an enemy of the goddess and humans, I will kill you all, whether you are a dragon or a demon. Oh, and especially that foolish evil god who dared to defy the goddess, you can regret not being human, you piece of trash among trash.”

Even in the end, Agatha had no mercy, holding the belief that she must kill all non-human creatures, just like she killed this piece of trash, she swung the sharp blade in her hand.

As the blade fell, a frivolous head should have rolled to the ground.

However, at this moment, the princess, who had been forgotten by everyone present, finally took action.

The princess approached Agatha silently and quickly like a ghost, and at the moment Agatha raised the famous sword in her hand, she stabbed the long sword in her hand into the center of Agatha’s barren chest from behind.

“Guah?! Val, Valentina, why…”

Seeing the blade growing out of her chest with her own eyes, Agatha showed a shaken expression that was different from her previous murderous majesty.

She tried to look back and asked why this was happening.

But Agatha originally turned her head to seek an answer, only to find more questions that needed answers.

No matter how she looked, the Valentina she trusted completely, who stabbed her from behind, had grown black wings and had horns that curved backward, something no human would have.

“Your, your form, what is it…?!”

In fact, Agatha knew, although there were slight differences in color and material, the shape of that disaster was undoubtedly a dragon.

But the problem was that she couldn’t understand why her offspring would be a dragon.

The dragon-slaying princess, who couldn’t understand why she was stabbed by Valentina, was now even more confused, forgetting to act, and just stared blankly at what she considered another version of her offspring.

“Heh, hehehe❤ Ah~ I see, he lied to me again, huh? What reclaiming, it’s still in my body! Or what? Is it because of my inner desire, so I can become like this even without him? He has been deceiving me all this time, what a terrible god❤~”

Even though Agatha was staring intently at her offspring behind her.

Valentina only slowly raised her now completely dull purple eyes, showing Agatha an extremely sweet smile, while murmuring like in a dream.
