Escaping Corruption: I’m Not the Dragon King’s Little Darling Wife! 5

5. “I Still Prefer Your Unruly Demeanor”

“Tell me.”

Calysia tilted her head, wanting to know what Reina was planning.

Of course, she couldn’t grant just any wish.

If the Dragon King were an omnipotent wish-granting machine, Reina would eagerly wish for Miss Dragon King to turn into a cute plushie for her to play with, and then return to her original world to enjoy life, or live a life of extravagant luxury as a billionaire.

Or, more simply, have the Dragon King help her conquer the world, defeat the other three Kings of the Four Realms, and assist her in clearing the game – that would also be an excellent choice.

But these were just pipe dreams in the face of disaster.

After granting the wish, the Dragon King would still discover her true identity as a human and attack her fiercely.

After much thought, Reina asked:

“I want Your Majesty Calysia to answer… one question for me.”

“Your wish is just an insignificant question?”

“Yes, Your Majesty.” Reina’s eyes were very serious.

“Speak. As long as I know the answer, I will satisfy Reina.”

“Actually, I’m very curious, how do you view my young master?”

Calysia’s gaze turned to the window. She seemed to travel to the future, and also to the past. Tucking a wind-blown strand of hair behind her ear, she smiled and said:

“I want to lock him in a cage, or freeze him in ice and turn him into a specimen.”

The Dragon King walked to Reina’s side, stroked Reina’s cute dragon horns, and laughed:

“Turn her into a demon, put a collar and handcuffs on her, transform her into my toy, pamper her for all eternity, and then, have a dozen more little dragon offspring.”

It was clearly early summer, but Reina felt a biting cold wind.

A series of unimaginable scenes appeared before her eyes. Reina subconsciously swallowed.

Was she hinting at me?

In any case, the Dragon King had confirmed her title as a female pervert. No… this was no longer just a female pervert, this was a full-blown yandere!

Reina suddenly wanted to take back what she had said earlier about the Dragon King being a good person.

Compared to other invasion maniacs, Calysia was just an ordinary monarch who guarded her territory and reorganized the internal affairs of the dragon race, merciless towards enemies, but kind and gentle towards her own kind.

Moreover, when advancing the main storyline, the help of the Dragon King Calysia was indispensable. She was one of the few characters who would develop some feelings for the protagonist and even help the protagonist advance through the levels.

But no matter how kind Calysia had seemed before, the current her was a pitiful woman who had experienced hundreds of “game clears.”

Conquered by the protagonist hundreds of times, choosing to commit suicide in despair rather than accept the protagonist’s gentle hands. And each despair fueled her pathological psychology!

Outside the game, Reina would only deeply lament for this pitiful monarch, perhaps even composing a poem to sing of her hardships and suffering, even despising her own actions and leaving this utterly absurd “game.”

But now, *I* am the pitiful “protagonist” being targeted!

Now was not the time for reminiscing.

“Thank you for your answer, Your Majesty.”

Reina’s voice was deliberately calm.

She suddenly became somewhat emotional: “Actually, in the past, I really liked the young master. He was my sun, guiding me forward.”

Then, she emphasized again with seriousness: “But humans are humans after all, incurable and utterly foolish.”

Calysia’s eyes widened upon hearing this information.

This was Reina’s plan.

That’s right, the person I like is the male lead, don’t get it wrong, Miss Calysia!

Saying she liked him, that was definitely false.

But as per the game’s setting for the maid character, she was a tsundere with a faint fondness for the young master, cold on the outside but warm on the inside!

As long as she made this relationship clear, the Dragon King would surely understand that her heart belonged to the protagonist. If she continued to pursue her, she would soon discover…

A forced relationship won’t be sweet.

Then, she would gradually lose interest in me and turn to hunt other targets.

Moreover, expressing her feelings could serve as a “smokescreen,” clearly defining the boundary between herself and the protagonist. It was truly a perfect plan!

On the surface, it was a question, but in reality, it was a statement of fact, using her strength to her advantage, leaving the Dragon King helpless!

“You… liked him?” Calysia’s body swayed slightly. Clearly, she had fallen for it.

“Hmm… I, originally, I liked him very much, but he’s just a pathetic, lowly human.”

Reina continued to act. She clasped her hands together, like a girlfriend discussing past events, planning to skillfully recount her past… But who knew what past Reina had with the protagonist? The damned designer only spent a few hundred words defining this cannon fodder character!

So, in reality, Reina had been gambling from the very beginning.

She was gambling that Calysia didn’t know Reina’s past and experiences.

If Calysia probed into my past, I’d be finished.

But she definitely doesn’t know about this!

A blazing light flashed in the Dragon King’s eyes for a moment. She stood up, leaving the heart on the table.

“Miss Calysia?”

Reina tilted her head, seemingly concerned, but in reality, her heart was already savoring the fruits of victory.

“Little Reina…”

Calysia’s eyes were unfocused, but quickly returned to normal. The corners of her mouth lifted slightly, and she leaned in, whispering softly into Reina’s ear.

Her voice held a hint of disappointment and helplessness, as well as a tease.

“Little Reina~”

It was at this moment that Reina discovered an extremely serious mistake she had made!

If her luck was bad, this mistake would be fatal.

“How long are you going to keep pretending? Even if you turn into a cute girl, I’d still recognize you~”

Reina’s body was paralyzed. Cold spread to every cell of her body. The sensitivity from her waist and neck made her flush all over.

The Dragon King’s soft tongue lightly touched Reina’s earlobe, greedily breathing in the fresh air from her.

Whether she knew I was the protagonist or not, she could use this despicable method to test me!

If I really wasn’t the protagonist, she’d just get off on it!

If I was the protagonist, it would be even worse, and she would escalate her actions.

I had no choice from the very beginning. What if I liked the young master? Would the Dragon King give up on me because I once liked him?

Wake up, Reina. The so-called initiative abandoned you long ago!

This Dragon King is a monarch who has gone through hundreds of cycles of transmigration. She is the final boss of the hidden Hell difficulty. She is the ceiling you cannot resist. The game ended from the very beginning.

“Your Majesty… Dragon King, what are you saying?”

Reina’s face flushed with embarrassment. The sensitivity from her neck made her let out an almost imperceptible whimper, which Calysia took in completely.

She placed her hand on the Dragon Mark on Reina’s chest, carefully touching the soft skin.

A tingling sensation pervading her entire body began to erode Reina’s consciousness. She instantly lost her composure, sitting on the nearby bed, a blush rising on her fair face.

“Your Majesty, *hiccup*… let me go!”

“Disobedient children must be punished,” Calysia said with a giggle.

“I still prefer your unruly demeanor.”
