Dragon Raja: Starting with Summoning Erii

This elevator requires a room key to use.

Sakurai Kogure hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward and said sincerely, "Kogure, we are your kind. Do you really not want to stay?"

Xia Mu shook his head.

"What's so great about the Snake Clan? If you go back, you'll just be locked up!" Sakurai Kogure gritted her teeth.

Xia Mu looked at her, blinking her big eyes: "You misunderstood. I'm not going home, I'm going to Yi Yi's side."

"Hey? Aren't you going home?"

Sakurai Kogure was taken aback.

Xia Mu nodded.

Sakurai Kogure gritted her teeth: "If I don't swipe my card for you..."

“I’ll build my own passageway, but the house might collapse.”

Xia Mu's well-intentioned reminder.

Sakurai Kogure is numb.

"Ding."

Just then, the elevator doors suddenly opened.

The masked King and the "female" Kazama Ruri walked in one after the other.

Sakurai Kogure was taken aback.

"Why are you standing by the door?" the king asked.

Sakurai Kogure tugged at Natsuki's wrist and pulled him away.

"Just taking a walk," she said softly.

Kazama Ruri didn't want the king to discover Natsuki's unusual abilities, so she tried her best to hide them.

Xia Mu cooperated with her by backing away and did not insist on leaving.

Sakurai Kogure assumed that he was afraid of the king's methods of controlling him.

"Good boy..."

Wang Jiang reached out and patted Xia Mu's head, asking softly, "Tell me, how did you disappear from here and go to Xia Liyi's place?"

Xia Mu shrank back, her body trembling slightly: "I...I don't know..."

Sakurai Kogure interjected, "I've asked him many times before, and he always says he just went because he thought about it, and he doesn't know why."

Wang Jiang glanced at her, but continued to ask Xia Mu, "What special abilities did you and she awaken? Can you teleport to each other?"

He still trusted himself more; Xia Mu wouldn't dare to lie to him.

"I...I don't know..."

Natsuki stammered, shifting his body and quietly hiding behind Sakurai Kogure.

Sakurai Kogure paused for a moment, then her heart softened.

The king noticed his movement, his eyes flashed, and he nodded at Sakurai Kogure: "Well done, keep up the good work."

He then turned around and walked directly back into the elevator.

He made a special trip just to ask Xia Mu in person.

After he left, Kazama Ruri came over and sat down.

"Is this Xiao Mu? Come, sit down."

He pointed to the opposite side.

Sakurai Kogure nudged Natsuki.

But Xia Mu didn't move; he just pointed to the elevator door.

Sakurai Kogure said anxiously, "If you try to leave now, the general will take control of you again!"

"Is he leaving?" Kazama Ruri asked.

Sakurai Kogure nodded: "After he came back from Xia Liyi's place, he was able to use Word Power again, especially that kind of spiritual flame."

"So that's how it is..."

Kazama Ruri watched Natsuki's retreating figure and suddenly lowered her voice: "Natsuki, you and I aren't actually enemies. Can you listen to me for a moment?"

Knowing that Xia Mu's Word of Power had been completely broken, he became much more serious.

Xia Mu glanced at him, and a thought struck her as she considered his relationship with Wang Jiang.

This is interesting. Is it a double or triple agent?

The Snake-Headed Eight Family thought he was on their side, the King thought Sakurai Kogure could win him over, and then Kazama Ruri thought she could recruit him...

But in reality, he is not Erii at all.

Hahaha…

I look forward to seeing the expressions on these people's faces when the truth comes out!

“Xiao Mu, actually, Wang Jiang and I aren’t on the same side, and I’m taking a big risk by telling you this,” Kazama Ruri said, looking at Natsuki.

Xia Mu sat down obediently, looking all ears.

"I ruthlessly behold the king."

Kazama Ruri spoke calmly, but the surging hatred in her eyes startled Natsuki.

"The victim of that clapper sound is not only you, but also me; we are all pawns in his game."

Xia Mu remained unmoved.

In fact, he knew more than Kazama Ruri. For example, it was Ou Jiang who killed his own family member, Genjiro. The conflict between the Snake-Headed Eight Families and the Demon Clan was also created by Ou Jiang. All the mixed-race people in Japan were manipulated at will.

"Stand on my side. I'm not asking you to deal with the Snake-Headed Eight Families, because we have the same enemy. When the time is right, we can cooperate to kill him!"

Kazama Ruri looked at Natsuki with sincere eyes.

"Oh…"

But Natsuki perfectly embodied Erii's character, showing no reaction whatsoever, remaining calm and indifferent.

Erii could never unravel such a complex web of conspiracies and schemes; she lived only in her own little world.

"What a child..."

Kazama Ruri shook her head helplessly.

“I envy you,” he suddenly said.

Xia Mu looked up: "Why?"

“Because you can still get your brother’s favor,” Kazama Ruri lowered her head, “while I have nothing.”

Sakurai Kogure blurted out, "My lord..."

Kazama Ruri shook her head, not letting her reveal her true feelings.

How could his current personality care about Sakurai Kogure? He is a demon, a revenge machine, driven only by the boundless hatred for the king fueled by the little boy's personality.

“I don’t want to stay here,” Xia Mu said softly. “I want to leave.”

Kazama Ruri's eyes flashed: "Go back to the Snake Clan? Then I'll really lose my freedom."

"I'm going to find Yiyi, and then go to Kassel College," Xia Mu said, looking up.

Kazama Ruri was clearly taken aback by his words.

You mean…

A thoughtful look appeared in his eyes: "You don't intend to stay with the Oni Clan, nor with the Snake Clan. You want to truly leave this place... for a while?"

Xia Mu nodded.

"That's a good idea..."

Kazama Ruri narrowed her eyes: "From what I've observed, the King never leaves this place. It seems there's some kind of constraint preventing him from leaving. Your departure is the best protection for yourself."

The reason he couldn't leave was probably because he was playing both the roles of the King and Tachibana Masamune at the same time.

Xia Mu thought to herself.

"How about this, as long as you agree to cooperate when dealing with the King in the future, I will find a way to send you away. It will be a reasonable departure, and you won't be brought back," Kazama Ruri said solemnly.

"it is good."

Xia Mu agreed readily.

Kazama Ruri, on the other hand, was a little confused: "You... you just agreed?"

"I want to leave," Xia Mu said succinctly.

This linear thinking made Kazama Ruri chuckle, but also inexplicably made her feel much more relaxed.

Such a simple-minded person doesn't need to worry about being betrayed...

“That’s good. Next, you cooperate with us and act like you’re completely obedient to Xiao Mu, so that the King will believe you’re on our side,” he said to Xia Mu. “That way, he’ll be more likely to let you go back and become an undercover agent.”

Kazama Ruri believed she knew the King very well: "When the time comes, you can leave."

Xia Mu was quite helpless.

He knew that the king's expectation of him was not to deal with the Snake-Headed Eight Families, but to stay here and not run away.

If he shows any sign of running away, the king or Tachibana Masamune will go mad.

The best way is actually...

Fortunately, they didn't have any backup plans.

Kazama Ruri was right about one thing: Herzog needs to control both the King and Tachibana Masamune at the same time, so he won't leave easily.
