Signing-In: The Lazy Moon Goddess-Chapter 624: Real Fairy

The five of them temporarily returned to the palace where Gou Yura and the other two chose to rest. They had gathered in the receiving area with a table of tea and dessert. Of course, their clothing had changed to something casual. Third Prince Russell vi Grandrouge is still in his fairy form making Gou Yura hardly able to move her eyes away.

The Third Prince knows that Lady Gou Yura is attracted to his current face and chooses to make good use of it. That’s why he didn’t turn back to his human form trying to quietly seduce her. Now three men were watching the couple pretending not to see them flirting but kept watching them with the corner of their eyes.

Gou Yura was like a fangirl whose eyes turned to hearts before their idols. In her case, she is baffled by how gorgeous the third prince is in his fairy form and keeps staring at him without a care in the world.

On the other hand, Russell vi Grandrouge was pretending not to see Gou Yura’s eyes on him but in his mind, he was about to scream. He felt overwhelmed with how the person he likes staring at him like this.

Gou Yuki commented in whisper, "Why do I feel like I’m watching a live drama right now?"

"Shss~, I want to know if these two will confess in the end," Lin Chiyu said.

The aide pulled out melon seed and shared it to the two and said, "Here. Eat this."

"Share some this way! Pass it on the back," another voice said, which the three men didn’t notice right away until they remembered they only had three men on the couch. They all turned around and saw Yue Xuexia holding the melon seed they passed behind and they were shocked that they all fell off the couch.

Thud. Thud. Ouch!

Yue Xuexia commented, "A nice pile of humans."

Everyone finally noticed that the Moon Goddess had returned and they didn’t even notice when she had arrived or detected her presence at all. She even stood behind the trio but they noticed her until she spoke.

The Moon Goddess snacking on the melon seeds took a seat on a single couch. The five obviously turned nervous in her presence. She knew that she couldn’t stay in this place too long. Well, she needs to find some place to stay while waiting for the entrance of the Ancient Ruins to open in this place.

Yue Xuexia looked at Gou Yura and asked, "So what is the situation between you two? Is that marriage real or just a ploy?"

Gou Yura answers, "It’s real!"

"A ploy," said the Third Prince Russell vi Grandrouge.

The two looked at each other as if they couldn’t understand why the other person’s answer was different from theirs. They gave a new answer this time they’ve just switched responses.

Yue Xuexia and the others watching them looked even more confused.

"Either way, if you’re going to continue the wedding just do it or not. That prince over there... your royal family is dead. Don’t blame me for it. It wasn’t me who did the killing but those two ancestors of yours. Those two ugly old things absorb life energy just to temporarily increase one’s cultivation realm. They were all absorbed by those two ancestors and the two over fed. I had to watch them explode on the spot. You can imagine the scene of two ugly, chubby and small old men expanding like balloons and bursting in the end. It wasn’t a good thing to see." Yue Xuexia said.

The Third Prince spoke, "Please don’t worry, Goddess of the Moon. This one had no attachment to the royal family."

He clearly doesn’t treat that family as his. His only family is his mother who had died in the cold palace who was sent by his father as punishment for harming his beloved concubine. She died there from the weakness of childbirth and poisoning. That’s why he hated them, the Royal Family, the Fairy Race and himself for having their disgusting bloodline.

Yue Xuexia stared at the third prince and said, "Prince, have you ever wondered if you are truly of this empire’s bloodline?"

Russell vi Grandrouge and his aide were stunned. They didn’t expect to hear such a question from the Moon Goddess.

The third prince asked, "W-What does the Moon Goddess mean?"

"You’ve seen the royal family. They are indeed of the fairy race. But their distorted appearance is because of the curse in their blood as someone from the Exiled Fairies. Those who are exiled from the Spirit Land will get a curse from the Fairy Queen. This curse had the effect of making the fairies look hideous like them."

"Real fairies in the Immortal World look like you. Maybe your father is one of the fairies who didn’t get exiled but left together with the exiled fairies. Have you met your real father? Or maybe heard something from your mother about him?"

Yue Xuexia upon seeing the fairy form of Russell realized that he didn’t inherit the cursed bloodline. However, she had checked everyone from the royal family and every single one of them possessed that cursed bloodline. That’s why she realized that maybe this third prince is not truly from this royal family.

The third prince would have never expected that one day someone would say that he is the one who had inherited the real fairy bloodline and not the cursed one he was jinxed as. The detachment of his father’s affection. The hidden hatred every time he meets the two ancestors. He now finally understood why he would feel hate every time he transformed. It’s because someone was jealous of his uncursed self that they bullied him, who were cursed.

Just thinking of his suffering since childhood, Russell couldn’t hold back his tears. He is indeed different from his clan. This clan is cursed and only he isn’t. He had received their hatred and envy, without him understanding anything. Only now with the explanation from the Moon Goddess that he finally let go of his attachment to this clan, to the throne and to this empire.

"I see. No wonder they bullied me when I was young. I was different from them since birth. I have what they don’t have. Because they can’t have the same thing they can only harm me. However, isn’t it unfair to suffer all this time and only learn about the reason after they are gone? I haven’t avenged my mother yet and don’t even know who my real father is!" Russell vi Grandrouge said.

Yue Xuexia sighed.

"I’ve kind of expected this. That’s why I’ve saved your royal father. Whether you flay him, toast him or whatever. He is tied outside. The choice is in you," said the Moon Goddess.

Prince Russell cupped his hand before the Moon Goddess and give her his thanks.

"Thank you, Moon Goddess!" The third prince and his aide went out to grab the former king of Xinglou Empire.

After the third prince and his aide left, Yue Xuexia focused on the rest who were left seated with him in the hall.

She looked at Gou Yura and asked, "You are free to love him as you wish. I have nothing against it. It’s just that you have to remember. He is a half-human, half-fairy. He will never be accepted by the Fairy Race in the Immortal World. Those arrogant fools never allow themselves to mix blood with a weaker race, especially a mortal one."

"If you are marrying him, he will either inherit this empire. If that’s the case then there is no problem. I’ve planned to connect the Mortal Realm and Cultivation Realm in the future. You can live here and visit your parents if you wish to."

Gou Yura was delighted by this information and asked, "Yue-Dajie, do you think his father is still alive?"

"No. He is most likely killed by this royal family and threw his pregnant mother in the cold palace to let them die. It’s his luck to survive until now. Jealousy and envy of fairies when talking about faces is like humans. They can kill if there is only one target among a hundred," said Yue Xuexia.

She added, "You should continue to stay here. There is a big opportunity to increase one strength and the entrance to that is in this empire. Lin Chiyu you must have heard about it. It’s an ancient ruin. Explain to these two about it. I still need to find a place to stay in this empire for a while."

"By the way, if you wish to return to the Mortal Realm just reach out to my grandfather and grandmother. They are in the Starfield Sect, the token you have with you is enough to ask anything from the sect. I will get going now. See you around."

"Ah! Wait! Dajie, have you found where Ruru is?" Gou Yura asked.

Yue Xuexia said, "No. They might have not fallen in this realm. I think they might be inside the Ancient Ruins." She disappeared after saying these words.
