Dragon Raja: Starting with Summoning Erii

The rain pattered softly, and the room gradually quieted down.

Xia Mu held her tightly, looking at her beautiful and charming face, and felt a sense of peace in his heart.

So what if she's aloof?

That matter wasn't important to them; what they craved most was the intimacy of being together and loving each other.

"Shameful...shameful...shameful..."

The next morning, Jormungandr started repeating the word in Xia Mu's mind as soon as he woke up, and it never stopped.

"That's enough. I just don't want to leave her with painful memories." Xia Mu couldn't take it anymore.

"boring!"

Jormungandr criticized without hesitation, "What kind of constitution does she have? She can just endure a little pain and feel nothing afterwards. Does she really think she's a delicate and weak girl? She's practically at the top of the hybrid food chain!"

"You're so experienced?" Xia Mu immediately replied.

Jormungandr paused, speechless for a moment, then stammered, "N-nothing..."

"You speak so confidently, but time is the only test of truth."

Xia Mu said, "If you're so capable, try it yourself."

"Let's give it a try, if only I had a body... humph!"

Jormungandr finished speaking, his face puffed up with anger, though it was unclear what he was angry about.

"Why are you so insistent on doing this for me and Erii?" Natsuki couldn't help but ask.

After a long while, and with Genjiro having come to help them into the car, Jormungandr said quietly, "I've hinted and suggested it so many times, don't you understand?"

Xia Mu was speechless.

He wasn't unaware of it; he simply couldn't accept it.

If Xia Mi became his daughter, what kind of complicated relationship would that be?

Family? Love? Or just chaos...

He has a moral bottom line, but many times he does things out of necessity, which is not the same as doing them intentionally.

"Eri is completely different when she's with you than when she's with other people."

While driving, Genji occasionally glanced at Natsuki and Erii in the back seat.

As Natsuki was lost in thought, Erii quietly leaned against him, playing with Natsuki's right hand fingers, seemingly enjoying herself.

What is she like when she's with other people?

Natsuki asked casually, glancing at Erii.

She raised her eyes and met his gaze, her eyebrows curving into a smile.

"Eri has a naturally expressionless face. Even when I played games with her or did her favorite things, she rarely showed a smile..."

Yuan Zhisheng stepped on the gas and sped through the traffic light. He continued, "Later, I spent a lot of time with her and I could still sense her emotional changes. I mainly observed her eyes. When she was happy, her eyes would be more lively and give her a more girl-next-door feel. At other times, her eyes were like smooth mirrors, only reflecting the light from the outside world."

"So you used to be a girl with nothing, no money, and no job."

Natsuki reached out and gently rubbed Erii's little face.

She wasn't upset at all; instead, she smiled at him.

Yuan Zhisheng saw this scene in the rearview mirror, his eyes filled with a mix of confusion and complexity.

"When I first saw Erii, I thought she was like a doll, perfect but lacking life. The craftsman used the finest glass for her eyes, but many people would be frightened if they stared into her eyes for too long..."

He looked away from the rearview mirror and said softly, "Thank you for making her feel like a real girl, not a doll."

Xia Mu stared out the window, thinking: I still want her to become a real woman, I wonder if you'll pull out a knife and kill me...

"You two didn't...do that last night, did you?"

Yuan Zhisheng seemed to read his mind, asking him whatever came to mind.

"Um...what?"

Xia Mu feigned doubt.

"It's just... uh..."

Yuan Zhisheng suddenly changed the subject, "You should know Fei Yuqing from your country, right?"

"Hmm, is there any connection?" Xia Mu asked.

Yuan Zhisheng coughed lightly: "What I want to ask is whether you guys have done any hehehehe."

"Hehehe?"

Xia Mu was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized, "Oh... damn! Did we have to go through all this trouble?"

"Eri and I are engaged, is there any need to be so secretive?"

He rolled his eyes. "Besides, isn't it normal for things to happen? Do we have to stick to tradition until after marriage?"

"Even if everyone else is normal, you can't be normal... or you'll give birth to a dragon..."

Yuan Zhisheng earnestly advised, "The current suppression is for a better future, you must endure it, little brother!"

"They've even started calling him 'little brother'..."

Xia Mu rubbed his forehead.

"Not only did I lose control, but I also made a huge embarrassment..."

His grumbling was overheard by Genji, who slammed on the brakes, nearly causing Natsuki and Erii to crash into the front seat.

"What did you say?!"

Genji turned around and roared.

Xia Mu calmly replied, "Oh, I mean, the 003 you produce works very well, it won't cause any problems, don't worry."

Genjiro's forehead veins throbbed as he unbuckled his seatbelt, crawled over, grabbed Natsuki by the collar, and roared, "How dare you do that to Erii?!"

Xia Mu could even see his tonsils trembling violently in his throat.

"Don't spit in my face."

He slapped Yuan Zhisheng's hand away.

Erii glanced at him, then pulled out a tissue and wiped his face.

Yuan Zhisheng: "..."

A long line of cars formed behind them, and gradually, honking and shouting began.

Yuan Zhisheng was furious. He sat back down and stepped on the gas. The Hummer roared to life, leaving a trail of exhaust fumes behind the convoy.

“You seem more irritable than usual today, not like that lazy, stoic tortoise,” Xia Mu said.

Yuan Zhisheng ignored him for a while, and only when they were almost at the family's residence did he say in a low voice, "This morning he just announced that he has passed the position of patriarch to me."

"Oh?"

Xia Mu raised an eyebrow. "That's great! How does it feel to become the emperor of the underworld?"

Yuan Zhisheng's expression was indifferent, clearly not thinking this was anything good.

"I'm getting further and further away from my dream," he said.

Xia Mu shook his head and smiled: "As far as I know, the position of the patriarch is like that of the emperor in the past. There is no such thing as resigning. It is usually a lifetime appointment. He is willing to hand everything over to you. Don't you feel happy? You suddenly have such great power."

“I even recommended you as a candidate to the family,” Genji said blankly, “but unfortunately, my approval rating still reached over 70%…”

"Do you regret doing so much for him over the years, to the point that the family members trust you so much?" Xia Mu asked.

Yuan Zhisheng shook his head, his eyes filled with melancholy: "In the past, although I didn't want to do these things, and didn't want to use violence to stop violence, I was still willing to do them in my heart because he wanted me to take responsibility, so I did it. It's a pity now..."

Silence fell over the carriage.

The Hummer slowly drove into the family's territory.

"I'll try to arrange for Yuan Zhinv to meet with you," Xia Mu suddenly said before getting out of the car.

Genjiro's hand trembled slightly, his eyes gleaming with intense light: "Is it alright?"

“It’s possible, but it has to be Minamoto no Chizuru, not Kazama Ruri. Could you see if you can help me retrieve the audio? It’s from the ship that Tachibana Masamune was piloting alone that day,” Natsuki said.

"Okay, leave it to me!"

Yuan Zhisheng nodded vigorously.

"My brother has become happy."

After the three of them got out of the car, Erii suddenly said something softly.

Genji was taken aback, then shook his head and smiled: "Eri is still as sensitive as ever. I just suddenly have a new goal and hope. Even if I take over the position of head of the family, I won't be bothered anymore. At worst, I'll just hand it over to Natsuki after these things are done."

"And then you're getting ready to go to the nudist beach, right?"

Xia Mu chuckled, "I'll help you contact a supplier of aphrodisiac oil."

Surprisingly, Genjiro wasn't angry this time: "Fine, I'll write 'Special Offer for Celebrity Natsuki' on the bottle."

Erii then grasped Natsuki's hand: "Thank you, Natsuki."

Xia Mu smiled and said, "After all, he's our older brother."

Some tragedies cannot be ignored, and some knives cannot be taken head-on; as long as you plan carefully to prevent Herzog from escaping, that's fine.

Yuan Zhisheng glanced at him, his lips twitched slightly, but he didn't say anything.

It's nice to have younger siblings like this; it would be even better if my daughter were here too…

Tachibana Masamune was standing outside the door.
