Mischievous Lolita in the Doll

That's right, Mil has his own room in this house. Although Mil usually sleeps with Eileen at night, Eileen still prepared a bedroom for him.

Walking to a cutely decorated door, he entered the room and locked the door. Mil looked around his room. It wasn't as messy as his dormitory. Even if he didn't clean it, Eileen would force him to clean it, and if he really couldn't, Eileen would clean it for him.

The room wasn't decorated like a typical boy's room; the cute wallpaper and neatly arranged plush toys suggested to visitors that its owner was a lovely little princess, though her personality wasn't exactly adorable.

Mil grabbed a Pikachu-shaped plush toy and crumpled it around. Although Erin usually bought him no more than three toys, it was clear that plush toys were not classified as toys by her. Although Mil himself did not particularly like such things, Erin still bought a lot of them as decorations.

After changing into a pair of pants, Mil didn't go out immediately. Instead, he took out a crayon drawing from the drawer that looked like it was still unfinished and was at the elementary school level. He had drawn it when he was bored during his loli-themed days. It had a few simple but somewhat cute little figures on it.

Among these little figures are Milloli, Eileen, Kiana, Kara, Luo Li, and other family members who are close to him.

He drew it out of boredom, but it was clear that Mil's patience wasn't that good. He gave up after only half of it. Now he wanted to add some other things. Mil first drew his own doll. Although the sketch was simple, it was still clear that it was himself.

Just as Mill was about to move on to drawing the other characters, Eileen began to urge him on:

"Taking so long to change your pants? Hurry up and come out to eat!"

Mil carefully put the sketchbook away and placed it back in the bedside drawer. Mil had never cherished anything like this before; he simply believed that his creations should not be defiled.

Once outside, they found Eileen staring at the pink-haired girl, seemingly very unhappy with her. However, the pink-haired girl didn't care about Eileen's attitude at all, after all, she was a bit dim-witted.

Seeing Mill return after changing her clothes, Grey's eyes lit up: "Hey, Aunt Eileen is a dragon, so you must be a dragon too, right? Otherwise, how could you have such strength?"

“No.” This time it was Eileen who answered her: “This kid was picked up.”

Although it was true, Mir felt a little uneasy for some reason.

"Little girl, what are your abilities, and what level have you reached?" Eileen felt that as a member of the dragon race, she should take good care of the younger generation.

“My ability is [Arsonist], and I’m already at Rank D.” Grey told the other party her information without hesitation.

"The arsonist, huh..." Eileen nodded, then asked, "Are you the Red Dragon?"

【Arsonist】is a very powerful ability, but unlike other fire-type abilities, it has very poor control over the flames. Although it does have some control, the real strength of this ability lies in the power of the flames it releases. The user is not affected by the flames themselves, but it is very difficult to control the flames so as not to harm their teammates.

Therefore, those who awaken this ability are extremely unsuitable for teaming up with a large number of teammates, unless the teammates are [Fire Controllers] with significantly higher strength than that person; otherwise, a large number of teammates will die as soon as the flames are released.

It could be said that this ability is quite useless at times, but sometimes racial talents can correct all of that.

“Yes.” Grey nodded. Of course, being pink-haired, she was the red dragon!

Eileen nodded knowingly. Red dragons have a strong ability to manipulate and release flames. The "Pyromaniac" ability, which was originally difficult to control, becomes a very powerful and useful ability after the red dragon awakens. However, very few red dragons awaken this ability. Now, seeing this child in front of her, she can see that he is indeed a genius.

I hope she can reach A-rank. Eileen sincerely thought to herself. Although the dragon race is indeed the strongest race in terms of race, their powerful physique is enough to challenge some ability users who are much stronger than themselves. However, A-rank dragons are very rare. As far as Eileen knows, including her own dragon race, there are only two A-rank ability users.

For those powerful individuals who rely on their race, those with higher-level mystical abilities are their nemesis. No matter how strong your physical body or magic is, as long as your mysticism level does not exceed theirs, there are many ways to kill you. Even though the dragon race has a high level of mysticism, it still depends on strength. For spirit species, strength and mysticism level are directly proportional. The difference is that some races have a higher level of mysticism level than foreign ability users of the same or higher level.

"Oh?" Mil, who had been silently listening to their conversation, nodded knowingly, then muttered without any attempt to hide his thoughts, "I know what you're capable of now. When I meet you, I'll beat you to a pulp..."

Eileen's face immediately darkened. It felt like she'd used her seniority to help this kid get information about other people's abilities. How embarrassing!

Then, to be fair, Eileen said to Grey, "This kid's ability is an extremely rare time-based ability, and its mystery level is the highest I've ever seen among time-based abilities. It's mainly used for acceleration and deceleration."

Mil stared in shock at Eileen, who had so readily revealed her information to others. Why was this girl siding with reason instead of her own?!

"So what race is he?" This was the question Gray was most curious about from beginning to end.

"I don't know." Eileen tossed Grey those three words and continued eating, as if she really didn't know.

Come to think of it, it's been many years since I've been back to visit. I wonder how much things have changed at home. Should I take some time to go back and see? Eileen thought to herself.

This "home" doesn't refer to Kiana's place, but rather to Irene's family home. Ever since Irene got together with Kiana, she's fallen out with her family. Her mother can't accept them being together, even though Kiana is currently the strongest person in the world. Perhaps this is the older generation's stubbornness about racial incompatibility, even though it seems like a normal thing now.

I'll find a chance to go back and visit sometime. Eileen made up her mind as she looked at Mir, whose mouth was stuffed full.

Chapter 173 Acting Cute to Adorable Creatures

Although Eileen was extremely unwelcoming to this younger member of her own clan, she still treated him to a delicious meal.

Erin had originally invited Mill over for dinner to teach him a lesson for causing trouble in public today, but with an outsider present, she couldn't say anything more. Erin understood the principle of not airing family dirty laundry in public.

However, this does not mean that the matter is over.

“Kid, you’re coming home for dinner tonight too,” Eileen said to Mill in an unyielding tone, then looked at Grey and said, “You’re not allowed to come over.”

Mil felt a tightness in his chest; it was true that even if the monk could run away, the temple couldn't hide.

"You don't have any matches this afternoon, are you still going to watch them?" Eileen asked as she cleared the tableware, gesturing for the two to come and help.

Grey stood there, stunned. She didn't understand what Eileen's gesture meant, but Mil instinctively went over to help, hoping that by pleasing Eileen now, she would be spared punishment that night.

"Well, Xia Ye has a match this afternoon." Actually, Mir himself didn't really want to go watch, but Xia Ye anxiously said that she hoped he could participate right after his match, so of course he refused without hesitation.

Then Xia Ye threatened him in a low voice, saying that if he didn't go, she would reveal that he had been hiding little girls' shoes.

Actually, it was only when Xia Ye said those words that she realized that the shoes might have belonged to Mir's sister, and she must have misunderstood something. But she still used this to threaten Mir, since it seemed that Mir didn't want anyone to know that there were shoes belonging to his sister in his family, although Xia Ye had no idea what was so shameful about it.

Mil agreed. In his heart, it wouldn't matter if Xia Ye really spread it around, but after carefully weighing the options, he felt that it was more troublesome for everyone to know that he had a little girl's shoes hidden in his house than for him to go watch the game in the afternoon. So he agreed. He didn't even think that Xia Ye would spread such a thing around.

Although Mir wasn't someone who would be easily threatened, he inexplicably refrained from retaliating when he saw Xia Ye's uneasy expression.

Hmm... there are quite a lot of cutlery.

Looking at the pile of dishes, there were more than usual. Actually, Eileen had deliberately prepared so much food to force out Mir's true form and teach her a lesson, after which she could comfort her with a large amount of delicious food. However, she did not expect Mir to bring another person, so the lesson for Mir could only be postponed until the evening.

Mil glared at the pink-haired girl standing behind him, pointing at her and yelling, "What are you looking at? Come and help, you freeloader!"

At first, Grey didn't realize that the person was talking about her. After looking around, she realized that the route Mil was pointing to only included her.

She pouted, feeling wronged, but still came over to help wash the dishes. She had never washed her own dishes when she was in her own academy. After all, after meals, some of her senior classmates would come over and tell her that "Grey only needs to be cute" so she could rest on the side and do most of the work.

Am I not charming enough? Grey looked at Mill and blinked her cute big eyes at him.

"Did you get sand in your eye?" Mil asked, puzzled.

"No." Am I that cute? Why isn't it working?

Grey was deeply hurt, then tilted her head and winked at Mill again, looking incredibly cute.

"Then why are you blinking like that? Are you crazy?!" Mil said bluntly.

Grey almost collapsed to her knees. What was wrong with this guy? Even the toughest person has a little girlish side, right? Wouldn't they feel protective of something cute?

Eileen, who witnessed the whole thing, almost burst out laughing. She found the little girl quite amusing, actually trying to act cute towards Mil. Not only was Mil unmoved, but even Eileen, a mature yet young woman, remained completely unfazed.

It's not that Grey's appearance and behavior aren't cute; in fact, she's super cute. Her appearance, somewhere between a loli and a teenage girl, adds a lot to her cuteness. But of course, it won't work if she tries to be cute to someone whose true form is already a world-class cutie, especially since Mil is so clueless.

Eileen, of course, remained unmoved. She could see her adorable daughter almost every day and never got tired of looking at her. In short, "Our daughter is the cutest in the world."

The three of them were preoccupied with their own thoughts... well, without Mil, two of them were preoccupied with their own thoughts, and one of them washed a pile of dishes without thinking about anything at all. Then Mil took Grey out and left. Eileen didn't say anything about Mil not getting too close to Grey, after all, it would be too much to strictly control the children's interpersonal relationships. Of course, Eileen would absolutely not allow any "dangerous friction" between the two.

When Mil brought Grey back to the academy's lounge, they found that everyone was already there. After all, they had come to the lounge after dinner. These guys had nothing to do all day, so they came to cheer for Xia Ye.

Besides them, Mir also saw the group of teenagers who had barged into their lounge that morning. When they saw Mir and Gray coming over, they first gave Mir a wary look, and then quickly ran to Gray's side to fuss over her, as if their junior sister had been mistreated by Mir.

When Mil saw the group like this, he immediately wanted to kick them out, but Carlo and the others stopped him. After all, this guy didn't know his own strength, and if he crippled someone, it would be bad for their academy's reputation. They decided to wait until night when no one was around.

Mir ignored the bunch of annoying guys and looked directly at Xia Ye, since they had come mainly to watch Xia Ye's match.

Xia Ye is currently leaning on the windowsill, taking deep breaths, which seems to be her way of relieving stress.

Mil didn't understand why anyone was so nervous about this. Why not just beat the opponent to a pulp? Anyway, with Little Lu around, they couldn't be killed.

He went over and comforted Xia Ye, saying, "Don't be afraid. If you feel you can't win, just surrender immediately."

"Hmm." Xia Ye nodded. Although what Mir said wasn't exactly encouraging, the reasoning behind it was correct, and Xia Ye felt a lot of pressure ease.

If you can't beat them, just surrender. There's no harm in losing, and registration is free.

Chapter 174 Summer Night's Competition

"Next match: Summer Night from Meichuxi Academy versus Luxi from Mayon Academy."

As Xiaolu spoke, Xia Ye took a deep breath and walked onto the stage. This was her first real battle against an ability user. She didn't think she could win, but she would do her best.

Also stepping onto the stage was a white-haired youth with a cold and indifferent face, exuding a murderous aura. This youth's eyes were extremely frightening, with no distinction between the whites and pupils, as his eyeballs were entirely black. Just being stared at by him made Xia Ye feel immense pressure.

Looking at the huge crowd of people on stage, she felt her legs go weak, especially when the audience was only looking at the two of them.

Xia Ye gave Xiao Lu a resentful look. She hadn't learned much magic yet, but they made her come to participate in the competition. She had never seen such a rip-off of a student.

But Xiao Lu ignored Xia Ye and raised the gun in her hand again as if she hadn't seen him. She hesitated for a moment, then put the gun back and took out a flag instead. She had already taken too much today, so it was better to be safe this way.

"Game start!"

As Xiao Lu waved the flag in her hand, the aloof white-haired youth sprinted and closed the distance, quickly arriving in front of Xia Ye and throwing a punch. His hand was wrapped in blazing flames, and the high temperature caused Xia Ye's hair to curl slightly when he was relatively close.

Xia Ye's pupils contracted slightly. In that instant, she knew that the person in front of her was definitely not like those clowns from before. At least this guy was definitely stronger than her.

But Xia Ye reacted quickly; she fell backward and crashed to the ground. No, it shouldn't be said that she crashed to the ground. The instant her back touched the ground, the shadow that was originally in front of her turned at an angle, as if a mirror image had been reversed, and caught her.

Xia Ye's body was enveloped in the shadow, which then bypassed the boy named Luke and ran away into the distance, seemingly trying to create some distance between them.

But Luxi obviously wasn't going to stand idly by and let that happen. He puffed out his cheeks and actually spat out a high-temperature flame that could cover half the area.

[Fire Controller: Roar]

"Hmm?" Eileen, sitting on the stage, slightly furrowed her brows. She turned her head to a blue-haired young man sitting next to her with an expressionless face and asked:

"Is this your academy's ace?" Eileen sensed that the flames spewed out by the boy had reached the mid-level of C-rank.

The blue-haired youth curled his lip and said provocatively, "I think he's better than those idle geniuses in your academy."

Eileen wasn't annoyed by his words and turned her gaze back to the game, but asked with a hint of doubt, "I remember you had an ace a few years ago, why haven't I seen him?"

The blue-haired youth's expression turned sour. He opened his mouth as if to say something, but Eileen interrupted him and said to herself, "Oh, right, I almost forgot that genius was driven to despair by my son, who was only twelve at the time. Hmm... my son was only twelve years old then."

"Hahaha!" Love laughed out loud without giving the blue-haired youth any face. Although he wasn't there at the time, he felt that the situation must have been quite interesting.

The blue-haired youth's face changed repeatedly before he finally closed his eyes, deciding to ignore it.

"Eileen, it seems the little girl from your academy is in a rather precarious situation," Love said to Eileen, looking at Xia Ye who was being pushed to the edge of the field by Luxi.

“Hmm.” Eileen’s expression didn’t change at all: “After all, that child is from the present world and has only been studying in this world for a month.”

Upon hearing Eileen's words, the blue-haired youth once again mocked like a clown from a third-rate book: "You've only been here for a month and you dare to participate in the competition? You really have courage."

“Yes, she certainly has courage.” Eileen’s expression remained unchanged: “I went to watch her practice magic once or twice. She works very hard, and… she’s a true genius.”

At this point, Eileen felt like she was looking at someone else's child. Looking at her own child, besides being cute and relatively strong, he didn't have any other outstanding features. In fact, if she didn't push him, he wouldn't even learn basic magic knowledge.

"Are you saying this girl can defeat my student?" The blue-haired youth sneered, setting a goal for his student.

Eileen shook her head: "I never said that."
