Dragon Raja: Starting with Summoning Erii

"Studying...something?"

Erii tilted her head, then secretly stretched out her hands to wrap around Natsuki's right hand, their fifteen fingers interlocking.

Rice ball reading

She was fascinated by this intimacy.

"Yes, this is it."

Xia Mu's right hand was enveloped by her softness, and he snapped his fingers with his left hand. A wisp of dark red flame burst into flames with a "poof" sound and went out three seconds later.

"Amazing!"

Erii's eyes didn't blink.

"really?"

Xia Mu didn't believe it: "It's nothing to you, right?"

Erii smiled and said, "But I don't know how to do this."

"You don't need to know how; you can kill me with just your words," Xia Mu said helplessly.

"Mumu, I..."

Erii lowered her eyes: "I don't like that kind of power."

"Why?" Xia Mu asked softly.

Erii raised her eyes, looked at his face, and said softly, "I want to be like everyone else, not to be hated by this world."

Nobody dislikes you…

Natsuki was halfway through his sentence when he saw Erii's somber expression, so he quickly added, "At least I don't dislike you."

"Ok!"

Erii suddenly raised her head and smiled, becoming happy.

"Mumu, I used my power yesterday," she said suddenly, sounding somewhat uneasy.

"What happened?"

Xia Mu's expression changed.

Erii said, "Last night I went downstairs to buy something, and a few people rushed over and tried to put me in a big bag, so I hit them."

Xia Mu was a little confused.

Just then, Erii's phone rang; it was the chorus of "I Once Thought of Ending It All".

Xia Mu picked up her phone and saw that it was an unfamiliar number.

"Who would call you..."

He answered the call and put it on speakerphone.

"Hello, freshman Xia Liyi, I'm Norma."

A calm, steady female voice rang out, like that of a professional secretary.

Natsuki nodded to Erii.

“Oh,” Erii replied.

"According to the regulations for the protection of new students, after you confirm your enrollment, I have the authority to track your whereabouts once a day."

“Last night, a group of people attacked you. You used your Word of Power. Do you know who attacked you?” Norma asked.

Xia Mu shook his head.

Erii shook her head as well.

Xia Mu pointed to his phone, both amused and exasperated.

Erii suddenly realized and said, "I don't know."

"Can I use your phone's camera to check on your status?" Norma asked.

Erii gazes at the summer trees.

Xia Mu pointed to the bath.

"I'm taking a shower." Erii understood immediately.

Norma paused for a moment and said, "Okay, now I will share the intelligence with you. The group that attacked you yesterday came from Tokyo and arrived in Shanghai the day after you left."

Xia Mu's eyes flickered as he thought of the Snake-Headed Eight Families and the Fierce Demon Clan.

“Now, I will provide you with comprehensive monitoring within the scope of my authority. I will notify you if any suspicious mixed-race individuals approach. Please keep your phone accessible,” Norma said.

Xia Mu nodded.

Erii replied, "Okay."

Goodbye, and I look forward to seeing you at the college next semester.

Norma ended the call.

Kassel College, Principal's Office.

“Your Excellency, Xia Liyi knows nothing about this,” Norma reported.

"Ah."

Hilbert Jean Angers examined the surveillance footage on the screen in front of him, a look of interest appearing on his handsome old face.

Several masked men jumped out of the dark alley and swarmed towards the freshman named Xia Liyi.

The girl remained calm and still, standing in place.

"Kakaka…"

In an instant, all the masked men who stepped within three meters of her froze, unable to move an inch.

"How are those people doing?" Angers asked, sipping his tea.

This tea, judging by his nature, must be the finest tea imaginable, the kind that contains the fragrance of a young girl.

Norma's voice rang out in the room: "By the time the branch executives arrived, they had already been taken away."

"Didn't they track those people down?" Angers asked.

Norma replied, "They were very professional and left no trace."

Angers gripped his teacup, lost in thought.

"It seems that there is a huge vortex surrounding the Uesugi tree. I didn't expect that sending Chu Zihang and Chen Motong there would have been the right thing to do. The entire Japanese mixed-race population has been drawn into this."

His face appeared somewhat blurred in the wisps of white steam rising from the tea.

"Xia Liyi's Word of Power is amazing; it silently and instantly lowers the surrounding temperature—a true dragon-slaying weapon..."

Angers laughed: "Have the Execution Department arrange surveillance. If her bloodline is stable enough, consider temporarily adding her to the Execution Department's Yangtze River mission."

“Principal Angers, according to the regulations for the protection of new students, there is no precedent for someone becoming a temporary commissioner before even enrolling.” Norma said matter-of-factly.

Angers put down his teacup and said, "All the regulations are for the highest principle, which is to serve the dragon-slaying mission. I think her involvement will provide more security for Operation Yangtze."

“Yes, I will notify the executive department,” Norma said.

Platinum Bay, Hongkou District, Shanghai, top-floor duplex apartment with floor-to-ceiling windows.

Natsuki whispered to Erii, "It's okay. In this situation, just freeze them to death and don't let anyone touch you."

"Is this... okay?"

Erii asked uncertainly, "My family says I can't lay a hand on people."

"Can't be said to people?"

Xia Mu frowned: "Whether they are ordinary people or mixed-race individuals?"

"Ah."

Erii nodded.

Xia Mu snorted: "From now on, listen to me. Whoever dares to lay a hand on you, you shall kill them."

"it is good."

Erii agreed without hesitation.

Xia Mu's heart melted once again when he saw her obedient little face as she leaned against the French windows.

"Eri, come here, I'll teach you how to use my study."

His right hand was still wrapped in two small hands, so with a gentle pull, Erii took small steps to follow beside him.

Xia Mu's study has bookshelves on three sides and a floor-to-ceiling window on one side, with his desk facing the river outside the window.

"I originally wanted you to read a lot of popular science books, but they're all too boring..."

He pointed to the bookshelf on the right and said, "These are all history books and biographies, stories from all over human history. You can try to take a look."

Erii let go of his hand and walked to the bookshelf.

“These books are so new… I don’t remember you ever seeing them before.” She turned around curiously.

Xia Mu broke out in a sweat: "They're all just for posing."

Chapter Sixty-One: A Drop of Blood from the Beautiful Snake?

What is a staged photo?

Curious baby Erii is online.

"It's just to fool the fans. My management team will specifically ask me to take these kinds of photos during my rest time to create a hardworking and excellent idol image for me."

Xia Mu reached out and touched the hardcover books, smiling as he said, "But actually, truly talented people don't read all day long. Instead, they selectively read books that are useful to them. The behavior of reading for the sake of reading is simply not advisable."

"Oh, so it's a lie?"

Erii hit the nail on the head.

Xia Mu was a little embarrassed: "Although the photoshoot is fake, my idol's quality is real."
