Dragon Raja: Starting with Summoning Erii

Be gentler next time you draw blood.

[System notification: To enter the Doupo world, you must sign a mutual summoning contract with Medusa.]

Xia Mu... stiff.

This system is toxic, absolutely!

"Fine, I won't go, huh!"

He got up and went to the living room, opened the freezer, took out a bag of frozen food, and calmly opened it, his fingertips burning with the fire of his spirit.

"Zizi..."

Soon, the blood melted and dispersed, condensing into blood droplets the size of an infant's fist by the dark red flames.

At the same time, Medusa's blood was released and mingled with the flames.

The fusion was ten times more difficult than the last time, but this time Xia Mu's stamina had also increased, giving her enough time to slowly grind it down.

The so-called alchemy technique now seems to him more like a branch of dragon alchemy, with mental power being its most powerful aspect.

According to Xia Mu's current estimate, the initial Blood Fusion Pill is a first-grade pill, and the current intermediate-grade one is probably a second-grade pill, both still in the initial stage.

However, a B-grade dragon bloodline likely has at least 15% dragon blood, which is already considered upper-middle level among hybrids.

"Buzz!"

The blood pill was finally melted and formed, the flames went out, and it fell into Xia Mu's palm.

It shrank to the size of Liuwei Dihuang Pills and emitted a... indescribable fragrance.

Xia Mu wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but he felt the scent was like body odor...

"We're doomed, we're going further and further down the path of depravity..."

He tilted his head back and swallowed it in one gulp.

The heat spread throughout the body in an instant, rushing into the bone marrow, and then spreading to the limbs and bones.

Xia Mu's bloodline has been enhanced once again!

"Am I now about the same level as Chu Zihang?"

He walked to the full-length mirror and saw a pair of beautiful, dark gold eyes reflected in his own eye sockets.

Before Chu Zihang learned the Blood Explosion Technique, he was only a B-grade bloodline.

My physical abilities have been enhanced once again, the world in front of me has become clearer, and I can distinguish more subtle sounds.

For example... a low sobbing sound.

"Ok?"

Xia Mu was taken aback, the dark gold in his eyes faded, and he quickly walked towards the study.

Upon opening the door, I saw Erii staring blankly at the computer screen, tears streaming down her face.

After swimming, she was still wearing a long shirt, her snow-white legs were pressed together seamlessly, her little feet were intertwined, and her tiny toes were fidgeting nervously.

Her fair, delicate hands rested on the mouse, and tears occasionally streamed down her face, wetting the backs of her hands and legs.

"Eri, what's wrong?" Natsuki quickly went over, took out a tissue, and wiped away the tears on her face.

Erii raised her swollen eyes, and when she saw him, her eyes lit up with a newfound brightness.

She tilted her little face up and obediently wiped away Xia Mu's tears, saying softly, "Mu Mu, Qin Ji is so pitiful. Why did that woman say such vicious things?"

Xia Mu was stunned for a moment, then looked at the computer screen and sure enough, Erii had played all the way to the top of the Thousand Buddha Pagoda by herself.

In the story, Qin Ji finally arrived at her husband's memorial tablet, only to be met with merciless ridicule and sarcasm from Jiang Shi, who had entered the family later.

"Eri, the best part of this story is yet to come, so don't jump to conclusions."

Xia Mu sat down beside her, placed his hand on the soft back of her hand, and tapped the screen to continue the story.

After Qin Ji fulfilled her wish, the protagonist Yun Tianhe and his companions finally left the Thousand Buddha Pagoda and returned to the ferry.

Qin Ji took the initiative to play and sing a song for the three of them to repay their kindness.

Erii, seeing this, unconsciously tightened her grip on Natsuki.

The song "The Legend of Sword and Fairy: A Tale of Love" has been a constant presence throughout the game's development from its inception to its peak, and it is deeply moving.

The plot and dialogue are equally thought-provoking:

Liu Mengli: ...The drizzle falls, the gentle breeze sways, relying on a deep and unwavering affection...

Han Lingsha: Sister Qin Ji… she sang this song with all her heart and soul… it’s so heartbreaking… why did fate bring two people together, yet leave them without a future…

Liu Mengli: ...Perhaps the fate between people is predetermined...When Heaven decides to take things back, it won't wait even a day or a moment longer...

Han Lingsha: ...This is so cruel...If I had to choose, I'd rather never have met that person in the first place than have to be separated by life and death after we met...

Yun Tianhe: That's true, but... even if the three of us are to part ways tomorrow, I won't regret knowing you and Mengli.

Yun Tianhe: Father said that we should enjoy life to the fullest so that we will have no regrets when we die. If we avoid the present moment because we are afraid of what will happen in the future, then we will not be happy and what is the point of living?

Liu Mengli: ...I think I understand what Uncle Yun is saying... Instead of worrying about the unpredictability of life, we should cherish the present moment... Cherish the time spent with important people...

Yun Tianhe: Pretty much. Anyway, you should be happy every day so that you won't have any regrets when you look back on it.

Han Lingsha: ...Is that so? ...To live life to the fullest and die without regrets...

"Live life to the fullest... die without regrets..."

Erii muttered those words blankly, her head spinning, feeling as if she had just had a sudden enlightenment, yet she couldn't quite understand them.

Xia Mu reached out and touched her head, whispering, "This is what I most want you to understand: the length of a person's life is not measured by its actual length, but by the days they truly feel happy and content..."

Yawen Library

Erii stared blankly at him: "A day when I truly felt happy... and blissful..."

“Yes,” Xia Mu looked into her bewildered eyes, “Some people live a day the moment they get into university, a day the moment they find a good job, a day the moment they get married, a day the moment they have a baby…”

"Life is only lived for a few days. We live the days when we achieve our goals, while the rest of the time we spend chasing, yearning, and seeking but not getting. These days are meaningless."

Erii didn't understand: "Why is it meaningless?"

Xia Mu said, "In this life, you can't bring anything with you and you can't take anything with you. Only the feeling of happiness in every moment is meaningful. People who live like that are always in the pain of wanting but not getting, and rarely have moments of satisfaction and happiness."

Is that so...?

Erii's eyes were like a blue sky after the clouds had been cleared, shining with a bright light.

"So, you have to make sure you're satisfied and happy every day, every moment, every second. That's what makes life meaningful," Xia Mu said with a smile, patting her head.

This is the worldview he hoped to instill in Erii.

Her life is so pitiful; only by making her happy every minute of every day can he make up for the regret in his heart.

"But…"

Erii asked somewhat uncertainly, "Can I really do anything that makes me happy?"

Xia Mu nodded firmly: "As long as it doesn't harm other people's interests, you can do whatever you want!"

Erii became happy: "Mumu, will it harm your interests if I hug you?"

Xia Mu: "..."

Chapter Ninety-One: Embracing the Whole World

"Won't."

Xia Mu scratched the back of his head, feeling that he had miscalculated again.

For Erii, who is just beginning to experience romantic relationships, what could be more joyful than exploring physical contact?

She sat beside me, exuding a subtle yet alluring fragrance. Her eyes were so beautiful, her face so pretty, and her slender yet shapely figure so tempting…

Moreover, she not only didn't guard up, but she also kept coming up to him on her own!

Natsuki saw Erii approaching, her delicate little hands slowly reaching out, and her graceful figure with her flowing red hair.

Wouldn't it be so satisfying to hold such a soft and perfect person in your arms?

"Mumu, why is my heart beating so fast?"

Erii stopped what she was doing, and touched her cheek somewhat uneasily: "My face is so hot..."

"It means your body is telling you that it's not a good time to hug me." Xia Mu got up, took two steps away, and stood in front of the French windows, spouting nonsense with a straight face.

Erii stood up as well, slipping her delicate white feet into her slippers, and shuffled over to his side: "In the game, Yun Tianhe also blushes when he looks at Liu Mengli. Han Lingsha said he was lustful at first sight. Mumu, what does 'lustful at first sight' mean?"

Xia Mu paused for a moment: "You can keep playing. When Yun Tianhe understands what romantic love between men and women is, you'll probably understand a little too."

"I like how I feel right now." Erii looked at him from the side, reached out and grabbed his left hand with both of hers. "My heart is racing, my face is burning, and I feel so nervous, but also so happy."

"Mumu, are you happy?" Her eyes showed a hint of unease.

Xia Mu looked into her beautiful big eyes, at her gently trembling eyelashes, and his heart raced along with hers.

"Happy," he said softly.

"laugh."

Erii's eyebrows were curved, and her thin lips curved into a captivating arc.

Her purity and beauty are beyond words.

Xia Mu finally couldn't help but turn around to face her, get closer to her, and move his gaze from her delicate and small nose to her clear eyes.

He slowly raised his hands.

Erii suddenly had a flash of inspiration and fully understood what he was going to do, and her body subconsciously leaned forward.

As her slender body pressed against Xia Mu's chest, his arms wrapped around her willow-like waist.

Xia Mu's heart pounded, and she instinctively tightened her arms.

One hand could encircle Erii's slender waist, and two hands could encircle it twice...

Erii buried her face in his arms, feeling as if she were being protected.

The world is so big, and for the first time, it has completely blessed her.
