Dragon Raja: Starting with Summoning Erii

Every time Xia Mi said "It's normal," she would kick him in the shin. "Xia Mu! I hate you, I hate you, I hate you!"

Watching her stormy departure, Xia Mu scratched his head, "Did I go a little too far?"

"To let down a beautiful girl is unforgivable."

Caesar had woken up at some point and was leaning against the table with his arms crossed.

Chu Zihang wiped the raindrops from the ground and said, "It's right not to let your girl down."

"It's no problem for a man to show himself off to a girl. The real charm is to leave a beautiful and unattainable memory in her heart, a memory she can cherish for a lifetime. Many years later, when she sits by the window watching the sunset, she can still think of him and the untouchable feeling of excitement."

Caesar lit a cigar and spoke eloquently.

Chu Zihang frowned: "If you can't give me a future, don't go around having affairs. Be a decent human being, Caesar."

What's wrong with a man showing his charm?

Caesar and Chu Zihang are two different kinds of people, and it seems they're starting to clash again.

Xia Mu shook his head and silently walked away...

Chapter 225 Public Confession

"Hello everyone... I'm a freshman... Xia Mi."

As Xia Mu stepped out of the Lionheart Club's headquarters, fluffy white clouds dotted the horizon, the sky was a deep, clear blue, and the autumn breeze was warm but not cold, washing away all his restlessness.

Xia Mi's voice suddenly rang out in the campus.

The students at Kassel College all looked up, searching for the source of the sound.

Soon, everyone saw the silhouette of a girl bathed in the warm sunlight at the top of the tallest church.

Four huge speakers were placed on the four sides of the church roof, and the girl held a microphone in her hand, speaking to the entire campus.

"Isn't that your most prized antique audio equipment? I've asked you to borrow it so many times, but you wouldn't let me. How could you bear to let her use it?"

The vice-principal, dressed in an old cowboy outfit, stood side by side with the principal, Angers, leaning against the railing of the office building's rooftop, gazing towards the church.

More and more students came out and gathered at the foot of the church like birds returning to their nests.

"Once I lend it to you, I can't get it back."

Angers, surprisingly, was on the rooftop with a glass of red wine. He took a small sip and smiled. "I saw her borrowing a sound system from the broadcasting room. The young girl's eyes and expression were like those of a warrior going into battle. It reminded me of the days a hundred years ago when I watched pretty girls' legs peeking out from under their skirts on the banks of the River Cam in Cambridge. Those were my beautiful memories..."

He slowly swirled his wine glass. "What the young girls are doing now will be the beautiful memories they will never want to forget in the future. For these memories, an indelible force will surge in their hearts, just to protect that memory and that place."

The vice principal sighed, "Every time I compare myself to you, I feel like I'm on a much lower level..."

He raised his glass, "Let's protect the world so we can still see the beautiful bodies of pretty girls!"

Angers, both amused and exasperated, clinked glasses with him.

"Aren't you going to see Frost?" the vice-principal asked, putting down his wine glass.

Angers chuckled. "Frost probably doesn't want to see me right now; he just got his head blown off twice by the academy kids..."

"What exactly are they trying to do? It doesn't seem like they want to impeach you, or hold a hearing to force Xia Mu out."

“Although I don’t know what Frost’s plans are, they are definitely aimed at Xia Mu,” Angers said calmly. “In any case, this time we must teach them a lesson so they will stop interfering. The school board is going too far.”

The vice principal did not answer him.

Angers looked over curiously, only to see the vice-principal take out binoculars and mutter to himself, "That little face, that little figure, so beautiful and captivating! If I were fifty years younger, I definitely wouldn't let such a perfect girl slip through my fingers..."

Angers: "..."

On the church roof, Xia Mi stood with her legs together, her skirt swaying gently above her knees, her high ponytail lively and charming, radiating youthful beauty.

Free Day is supposed to be a day for students to let loose, but now that there's something exciting to see, almost everyone gathers around.

Xia Mi smiled as she held the microphone and continued, "I'm a freshman and today's champion. According to the rules, I can pursue anyone in the academy, and they not only can't refuse, but they also have to maintain the relationship for at least three months, right?"

A low murmur arose, and a few, not afraid of stirring things up, shouted, "Yes!"

Xia Mi's long eyelashes trembled, casting delicate shadows in the sunlight. "Then... I want to confess to the boy I like here... is that okay?"

"Whoosh!"

The entire area around the church was like a pile of dry wood ignited by sparks, and the atmosphere suddenly became lively.

A freshman, a junior, confessed her feelings in front of the entire school!

"Ok, Ok!"

"Your senior brother supports you! Speak up!"

"Look at me! Look at my senior! Pick me! I'll take you for three months, or even three years!"

"..."

Xia Mi ignored the waving hands and howling of her flamboyant senior brothers, gently holding the microphone in both hands, her eyes seemingly unfocused, "I... came to Kassel College for him..."

"From a very, very long time ago, I've been watching him, watching him... dreaming that one day we could stand on the same campus, enter the same classroom, and attend the same class..."

The girl's gentle voice gradually calmed the noise.

"I dream of one day walking hand in hand with him on campus..."

"I have been working hard for this day."

Xia Mu leaned against the outside of the stadium wall with his arms crossed, unsure of what expression to make.

This guy... he's overacting...

"Brave girls are very attractive."

Caesar came out and leaned against the wall.

"But it also cornered Xia Mu."

Chu Zihang leaned against Xia Mu's other side, holding the knife.

The three of them looked diagonally upwards, directly in Xia Mi's direction.

"You asked me...whether I like you?"

Xia Mi lowered her eyes, seemingly not wanting others to see the emotions in them.

"You said I wanted you to love me, but I wasn't even willing to show any interest in you. How could love possibly develop like that..."

Xia Mu was taken aback when he heard this.

Have you ever tried staring at someone for a long time?

"In that process of growing up alone and learning about the world on my own, I only heard one person's voice and only watched one person's actions... for more than a decade..."

"I don't think you can understand..."

Xia Mu looked up at her blankly.

Even if every dragon is just a child who opens their eyes and begins to see the world when they are born, why me?

"I love his singing... I love his music... I love his... joys and sorrows..."

Xia Mi raised her eyelids, staring blankly at her legs, lost in some past emotion.

"Treat his joys and sorrows as your own...try to emulate them...try to experience them..."

Xia Mu suddenly understood what she meant.

He debuted as a child star, acting and singing from a very young age, and she has been following him since she was very young.

She was just a child who had just been born into the human world and didn't have many ways to learn from humans. The boy on TV, who was about the same age as her, was the best and easiest role model to imitate.

"Have you ever tried to silently observe someone in a crowd? Watch them sing alone in the practice room, watch them stand on stage for hours with a smile on their face, watch them clean up alone after work and practice the piano alone in the music room."

Scenes from the past flashed through Xia Mi's beautiful eyes, making her gaze even softer.

"He has many people flattering him, but he can't find any true friends he can open his heart to. You might think, 'Damn! If I were him, I'd be so depressed! How could I not be so lonely? What's with this guy pretending to be cool? What's wrong with showing some vulnerability?'"

Xia Mi paused for a moment, "But you find that you don't hate him, because you are just like him... Across the flow of people, the observer and the observed are the same."

Xia Mu glanced at Chu Zihang.

"Ok?"

Chu Zihang was baffled.

Xia Mu shook his head.

Has everything in this world changed because of my intrusion?

Erii left Tokyo and slowly began to understand the world.

I was the one silently observing Xia Mi, and I was the one watching her all along...

Xia Mu felt a mix of emotions churning violently within him.

Chapter 226 Xia Mi and Erii's Three-Point Agreement

"And what about yourself? Where are you?"

To everyone's surprise, while Xia Mi was lost in her past emotions, Xia Mu stepped out, walked to the center of everyone, and looked up at the beautiful girl on the roof.

"Looking at others... imitating others..."

He gazed into Xia Mi's eyes. "Does this make any sense?"

Xia Mi raised her eyes, and a gentle breeze lifted her black ponytail, the strands of hair flying in the air.

"Is there any meaning to your lives?"

Does laughter and tears have any meaning?

"What is the meaning of the cycle of spring and autumn, the cycle of flourishing and decay?"

She slowly stood up, her dress fluttering, just like... the Little Dragon Girl from Jin Yong's novels who cut through the darkness, ethereal and otherworldly.

"In my view, there is only one thing in the world that must be accomplished at all costs."

She said, "If I had to pinpoint a meaning... this is my only meaning."
