Dragon Clan: Force me to be reborn and slay dragons

Chapter 240 Brother, you are the most powerful monster in the world
Some are happy, some are sad; some sing joyfully tonight, while others are burdened with worries and cannot sleep alone.

Uesugi Koshi sat on the edge of the bed, holding three photos in his hands. His body was slightly hunched, and his eyes sometimes showed joy and sometimes sadness.

Moonlight streamed through the open window into the old one-bedroom apartment, casting his shadow on the floor, which was cut into pieces by a stool with a missing leg.

With a deep sigh, Uesugi couldn't figure out how to resolve this predicament, no matter how hard he tried.

The two sons turned against each other because of the hatred stemming from the murder of their father.

The daughter who resembles her mother the most was kidnapped by a wild boy and there has been no news of her since. The eldest son, who holds real power in the Snake Clan, has given up the search, and no one knows what happened.

Countless thoughts raced through his mind, and the more Uesugi thought about it, the more frightened he became, so he simply stopped the pointless internal struggle.

Of course, he couldn't withstand the external pressures either. Exhausted both physically and mentally, he simply didn't have the strength to deal with the ravenous young woman.

As the clock struck twelve, Master Yue, who had been searching for someone outside and even missed his chance to earn money at his stall, put aside his chaotic thoughts and went to bed.

Go to sleep. Get up early tomorrow and go look around outside again. Maybe you'll make a new discovery.

After lying quietly on the bed for about ten minutes, Uesugi suddenly opened his eyes, sat up, and cursed:
"A bunch of idiots! They didn't even flinch when someone infiltrated their headquarters! They actually believed a reason I just made up on the spot?!"

He was furious. The plan was for that unfortunate law enforcement officer to report the situation, then bring out some old folks from the family who refused to die to identify him, and once his identity was confirmed, the Snake Clan would send people to arrest him.

Then he would retaliate one by one, just like in a TV drama, where he would beat the younger ones and then the older ones would come, and so on, until the eldest son, who was a law enforcement officer, would step in.

But he's been waiting all this time, and nothing has happened!

Could it be that my acting was so good that I fooled that silly boy?

Uesugi Yue muttered to himself, glanced at the small traps set up inside and outside the house, and closed his eyes again.

This time, his nightmare will no longer be just the nightmare that resides in his heart, but also his cold-blooded eldest son, his youngest daughter who has been living away from home, and his broken youngest son.

"Achoo—!"

Inside the presidential suite of the Hilton Hotel, Lu Mingfei sneezed for no apparent reason. The movement caused a momentary lapse in his control.

The girl sitting cross-legged next to him seized the opportunity to launch a sneak attack without any martial arts. Wearing a revealing outfit, Mai Shiranui performed a series of smooth and fluid moves, emptying the health bar of the fire-playing boy Chris, and Lu Mingfei was utterly KO'd.

"What are you doing, ouch!"

Lu Mingfei looked at Erii, who was humming and whining with a smug expression, threw the controller aside, and reached out to pinch her delicate cheek.

"Ugh!" Erii didn't resist when her face was pinched; she just stared with her big, rosy eyes, looking innocent and adorable.

"Acting cute is shameful!" Lu Mingfei's heart raced slightly as he pulled the girl's rosy lips into a distinct upward curve, making her smile incredibly adorable.

"You look so beautiful when you smile."

As she let go, the smile on her face vanished, and she resembled a cool, aloof female assassin, but in reality, she was just a clueless Uesugi dazed girl who didn't know how to interact with others.

Reluctant to use force, two faint red marks still appeared on the girl's fair cheeks, like two blooming flowers.

Lu Mingfei patted her head: "Alright, it's getting late. We need to go out and buy nice clothes, shoes and bags tomorrow. Go to sleep early."

Tomorrow's plan consists only of shopping and eating. Miss Erii is very satisfied. She also patted Lu Mingfei's head as a reward, just like he did, before jumping off the sofa and returning to her bedroom.

Without closing the door, under Lu Mingfei's gaze, she grabbed the big-headed bear plush toy on the bedside table, rolled into the covers, waved cutely at him, and then closed her eyes.

With a light laugh, Lu Mingfei turned off the game console, took out his phone, and glanced at the messages. Everything was proceeding according to plan.

Nodding in satisfaction, Lu Mingfei went to Erii's bedroom across the hall, lay down fully clothed, and silently recited a phrase as he closed his eyes:
"Aze."

The next instant, a strong sense of weightlessness washed over him, and his consciousness seemed to plummet into an endless abyss.

Without panicking, Lu Mingfei even shifted to a more comfortable position during his fall, wanting to see what new tricks that brat could come up with.

But the instant this thought arose, he stopped falling and hovered in mid-air. The surrounding darkness shattered, revealing a blue sea and the moon's reflection.

The sound of rushing water came from behind him. Lu Mingfei turned around and saw an old house that had stood for who knows how long. Cherry blossoms were in full bloom in the courtyard, and a bright-eyed little boy was sitting on the edge of the hot spring pool in the center, leisurely soaking his feet with his trousers rolled up.

Well, although it's a bit strange to describe Aze as having bright eyes and white teeth, he does have a bit of a feminine appearance in this life. Even Yuan Zhinv isn't as pretty as him.

"You've finally decided to come out?"

Lu Mingfei found himself wearing a pair of slippers, which he kicked off as he approached the hot spring pool. He rolled up his trousers and sat down next to the boy to soak his feet.

This scene stirred up his memories once again. In his previous life, when he was crossing Eurasia with two little kids to return to China, he had also had a similar experience of soaking his feet together by the river.

The river water was icy cold, but the boy insisted on saying he wasn't cold, and almost caught a cold as a result. That night, he even held Renata's hand and made her feed him hot porridge, looking completely entitled to it.

"Been busy recently."

Lu Mingze braced his hands on the table behind him, his feet gently kicking at the warm water. Wisps of steam drifted through the antique courtyard, giving him a bit of a Toilet-bound Hanako-kun vibe.

"Let me tell you a secret, brother. I actually run a super huge company, making millions every minute. But in the short time I'm out soaking my feet with you, I've lost tens of millions."

Lu Mingfei glanced at him sideways, then grabbed his slender neck and pulled that mischievous head into his arms:
"So what? Even if you're the richest man in the world, you're still my brother."

As he spoke, he raised his hand, grabbed Lu Mingze's left cheek, and pulled hard to make sure he was not dreaming.

Lu Mingze grimaced and hissed in pain, but his face showed no sign of suffering or displeasure. Only after Lu Mingfei let go did he rub his face and say:

"Brother, you're getting more and more violent. You weren't like this before."

"Really? What was I like before?" Lu Mingfei looked up at the bright moon, and another "self" appeared in his mind.

Lu Mingze counted on his fingers: "Inferiority complex, timidity, cowardice, indecisiveness, procrastination, laziness, poor grades, lack of ambition, and a tendency to talk nonsense..."

"Stop! Are you reciting a dictionary of negative words? List some good points!" Lu Mingfei closed all the fingers his younger brother had extended, making him list the good points again. Lu Mingze pretended to be troubled, and finally raised one finger, cautiously probing:
"Are you really good at video games?"

"Why use a question?!" Lu Mingfei grabbed Lu Mingze and instantly ruffled his neatly combed, mouss-sprayed hair into a bird's nest:

You can doubt my character, but you can't doubt my gaming skills!

"Is this the point?" Lu Mingze snapped his fingers, instantly breaking free from Lu Mingfei's embrace, his messy hair returning to normal.

"Otherwise, are you going to talk to me about the White King, the Black King, Old Tang, or my identity, and your condition?" This time, Lu Mingfei did not try to grab him again, but just gazed at the surging black ocean and white waves under the moonlight in the distance.

The wind whistled by, and pink cherry blossom petals danced in the breeze, drifting into the distance.

"Brother, you've become so smart, it's making me feel so uncomfortable." Lu Mingze looked at his brother, whose spirit, appearance, and even physique had undergone a complete transformation, a faint sadness flowing in his golden eyes:
"Knowing too much can be exhausting."

"That's why I'm here to help you share the burden," Lu Mingfei said calmly, as if stating something perfectly natural.
"Although I don't know how much you've been hiding, children have their secrets too, and I won't force you to tell me."

"If you ever really can't take it anymore, just tell me, and I'll take your place."

Upon hearing this, Lu Mingze's sorrow deepened.
"What if it puts you in a difficult position?"

"As long as you don't give up, there's always a way to overcome difficulties. I've seen it all." Lu Mingfei smiled, and seeing that he didn't want to talk about it anymore, he simply changed the subject:
"Next up is the White King. What do you think my chances of winning are?"

Lu Mingze did not answer, but simply raised one finger.

"Ten percent?" Lu Mingfei raised an eyebrow, feeling it was a bit low.

What happened to the claim that even with the White King not fully replenished, he could still single-handedly kill a super hybrid?
“We will definitely win.” Lu Mingze corrected him. “Brother, you are the most powerful monster in the world. No one and no dragon can be your match.”

"What monster nonsense? You've been watching too many cartoons." Lu Mingfei gave him a disapproving look. "I have an ID card. I'm a descendant of Yan and Huang, a Han Chinese!"

The little boy didn't speak, he just looked at him quietly.

The older boy felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by the younger boy, and waved his hand: "Okay, monster it is, it doesn't matter anyway. It just so happens that I have a little monster to be my partner. We can team up and go to the Ultraman Studio to fight Ultraman together."

“If you really intend to cure her using that method, then she won’t just be a little monster anymore,” Lu Mingze said quietly.

"Does it make a difference if I'm by your side?" Lu Mingfei asked rhetorically.

"There really isn't much difference."

“That’s it.” Lu Mingfei glanced down at his watch. Although he never wore a watch, a black multi-function watch appeared on his wrist the instant he looked down, showing the time as 2 a.m.

"It's getting late, and I have another date tomorrow. Do you have any information to share?"

"Have a good time." Lu Mingze snapped his fingers, and his unlovable older brother was forcibly logged out, leaving him alone in the hot spring at the seaside villa.

After thinking for a moment, his golden eyes flickered slightly, as if he were spying on something. He quickly reached out and patted his side, and with a burst of ninja smoke effects, a girl with platinum blonde hair appeared.

After a moment of confusion, the girl calmed down and stood obediently beside the boy. Clearly, this wasn't the first time she had been dragged into a dream.

He seemed to be in a good mood tonight. He didn't tease her on purpose. Instead, he gently lifted her skirt a little, took off her pure white over-the-knee stockings, and invited her to sit down and enjoy the moon and soak her feet.

With a fist's width between them, the boy suddenly spoke up: "What do you think of him?"

The girl thought for a moment and concluded, "He's a good person."

The boy burst out laughing upon hearing this, patting her thigh with his hand: "Very good, I'll pass on this 'good guy' card for you."

The girl didn't understand why he was laughing so happily, but since he was happy, she was happy too.

And so a slight smile curved her lips, and the image of the Black Swan Harbor covered in ice and snow in her heart gradually faded away, leaving only the bright moon, the vast sea, the cherry blossoms, and the people around her.

……

"The sun shines brightly, the flowers smile at me, and the little birds say, 'Good morning, good morning, why are you carrying so many bags?'"
I went shopping at the mall, and my daughter was buying a bag. She picked one out, I swiped my card, and with a 'beep,' the money was gone.

Shibuya has always been a shopping paradise for young people, with many trendy and unique shops. Erii fell in love with this place at first sight.

After getting up early and having breakfast, they took the Shinkansen to the streets of Shibuya. Lu Mingfei, with the determination to fight the White King, and the excited Erii stepped into the most famous department store, Shibuya Parco, which is known as the fashion icon of Shibuya.

There are many well-known world-renowned luxury brands here. After entering this place, Erii felt as if she had opened the door to a new world. She wanted to go into every shop she passed by, try on every beautiful piece of clothing, and stop to play with the cute dolls and accessories.

Lu Mingfei, on the other hand, provided the highest level of emotional value. He didn't use the usual "good-looking" or "pretty" but instead used phrases like "tailor-made," "100% suitable," "overwhelmingly high-class," "the leading lady of a fashion magazine," and "a fairy descended to earth."

After such praise, Erii's smile never left her face, and even the accompanying sales assistant wished she could write down his words to use on customers in the future.

While the two of them were on a shopping spree at Shibuya Parco, Uesugi Koshi once again came to Shinjuku.

This time, he wasn't going to wait around waiting for something to happen, but rather he heard that people from the Kassel College had come to Japan, and that old man Angers was there too.

He wondered if he should swallow his pride and ask for his help, since all he had now was his strength and nothing else.

Just as he spotted two law enforcement officers chatting and smoking in the designated smoking area, preparing to question them for information, their phones suddenly rang. Their expressions changed upon seeing the caller ID:
"The head of the Uesugi family's credit card broke its spending record? At Shibuya Parco?"

The two exchanged a glance, simultaneously stubbed out their half-smoked cigarettes, and hurriedly rushed into the car, saying in a flurry:

"Hurry, hurry, the opportunity for a promotion and a raise is right in front of you!"

With a stomp on the gas, the black Mercedes sped away, leaving Uesugi with a mouthful of exhaust fumes.

However, he was not angry; instead, he showed a look of ecstatic joy.

What does it mean to search high and low without finding it, only to have it come to you effortlessly?

Sure enough, a smiling old man is bound to have good luck!

Erii, I've come to find you!
