Dragon Clan: Force me to be reborn and slay dragons

Chapter 249 Riding the Waves with You, Catching Fish in the Vast Ocean

Top-tier ninjas often only need to use the simplest method of surveillance. After a busy day and night, Master Jiude put down his binoculars, took out the prepared dry rations, and took a bite.

Although it tasted pretty good, it was a bit too cold compared to the hot dog food we had just eaten.

The passion and exhilaration I felt last night, shooting bullets at the world's strongest dragon slayer with an automatic rifle in my hand, have vanished after a whole night of cold wind.

All that remains is numbness and indifference.

"Hey, hey, hey, long legs, why aren't you saying anything?"

The voice of "Potato Chip Girl" came through the earphones; she was also a frequent night owl.

To keep her best friend from being alone on the watch, she spent the whole night on the phone with her.

"My stomach is a little full, I'll eat something to calm down."

Mai Shude stared blankly, chewing on her energy bar with a blank expression, and even the rising sun in the distance seemed a little out of place.

"What's wrong? Have you been eating nothing but the northwest wind?" Su Enxi was a little worried. Could this girl have been blown silly by the wind? That would be considered a work-related injury.

Mai Shude ignored her, finished two energy bars, and poured a bottle of fatigue recovery liquid into her mouth.

Only after realizing that the boy and girl who were stuck together on the cliff edge in the distance had finally separated did they pick up the binoculars again to look.

Upon seeing this, I almost spat out all the nutrient solution in my mouth.

The young boy and girl, who were embracing each other, suddenly leaped forward for some unknown reason, like a couple who couldn't bear to die for each other, calmly jumping off the steep cliff.

Before the word "Holy crap" could even be uttered, an even more "Holy crap" followed.

……

Moving slightly forward in time, Lu Mingfei was ambushed by a naive girl, leaving behind beautiful "evidence" on her phone.

Shocked, he solemnly warned Erii that sneak attacks were unsportsmanlike, especially when the target was a handsome young man like him at seventeen or eighteen. He demanded that she try again, assuring her that Master Lu would be able to defend against it this time.

But Erii is just naive, not stupid.

No matter how Ren Luming tried to coax her, she simply pressed her hand against his chest to show her refusal, her face cold, but the corners of her mouth curved into a crescent moon.

When Lu Mingfei realized that he couldn't coax her with his old tricks, he said he would give her a small gift in return.

"A sneak attack?" The boy, his ears slightly red, forced a domineering CEO air, released the girl's hand, and instead wrapped his arms around her legs, lifting her up in a princess carry:
"I'll make you fly!"

As the morning light pierced through the clouds, Lu Mingfei bent his knees slightly, grabbed Erii, and leaped off the cliff.

The girl's skirt fluttered in the air, like a snow lotus blooming in the morning sun.

Erii instinctively hugged his neck tighter, her crimson eyes fixed on the boy's profile.

At this moment, her Sakura eyebrows and the corners of her eyes shimmered with a golden glow.

"Hold on."

Lu Mingfei whispered in her ear, his breath brushing against the girl's earlobe, then his voice suddenly lowered, as if a celestial being were commanding all things:
"Riding the wind on my sword, I vanquish demons across the land—Sword, come!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a mournful cry of steel suddenly erupted from the cliff behind them. The rusty minecart tracks snapped one by one and, under the control of an invisible force, transformed into dozens of black streaks that shot through the air.

"Qiang——!"

The clanging of metal startled the birds flying all over the mountain. Erii opened her eyes wide and watched as the rails intertwined and reassembled in the air, instantly forming a giant sword the size of a door.

Having traversed nearly ten meters beyond the cliff edge and reached his highest point, Lu Mingfei, about to begin his descent under the influence of gravity, lightly touched the ground with his toes and landed precisely on the sword.

The giant sword dipped slightly, then hovered steadily a hundred meters in the air before shooting off towards the rising sun.

The morning breeze ruffled the girl's long hair. Erii gazed intently at the boy's face, which wore a faint smile, feeling no excitement of soaring through the sky, only...

"Fuck!"

A kilometer away, Mai Shude's nutrient solution bottle clattered to the ground, and the usually composed and in control long-legged beauty swore.

Through the headset, Su Enxi, who was crunching away on a newly opened bag of potato chips, asked curiously, "What's wrong? What kind of trouble is Lu Mingfei causing now?"

"He..." Mai Shude held up her binoculars, looking at the young man who was holding a beauty and riding the wind on a sword, her voice trembling with a hint of unease.

"The little cow is riding in an airplane, so cool!"

"What?"

"That kid somehow managed to piece together the railway tracks into a sword, and now he's playing sword flying with the young lady of the Uesugi family in his arms!"

As she spoke, she took out her phone and sent Su Enxi a photo of the scene.

In the photo, a giant sword carries the two of them as they fly low over tens of thousands of hectares of forest, riding the waves above the lush green sea of ​​trees. Erii's skirt blossoms like a flower in the mountain breeze.

Su Enxi stared at the exquisitely beautiful photo on the screen, then squeezed the bag of potato chips, which made a sharp popping sound.
"What kind of divine idol drama scene is this? Is this how you use sword control?"

Where did this guy learn all these flirting tricks? If a girl were to be treated like this by him, would she ever be interested in another man?!

Jiude Ma Yi remained silent, only eating dog food in the northwest wind, becoming a beautifully full man who was stuffed to death.

Down in the mountains, the town of Baijinji is gradually awakening. Nobita Shin-chan, a fourth-grade elementary school student, is sitting by the window with a red bean bread and some leftover milk, quietly enjoying the sunrise.

His parents go out to sea to fish very early, so he has developed the habit of going to bed early and getting up early. Today he got up early and, as usual, ate his meal while looking at the scenery in the distance that he was already tired of seeing. Suddenly he heard what sounded like an airplane cutting through the sky. Curious, he looked in the direction of the sound and suddenly his eyes widened, and his jaw almost dropped to the ground.

From the direction of the cliff, a handsome young man carrying a beautiful young woman rode the wind on a giant sword. Although they were dressed in a suit and a white dress, they gave the impression of a couple living in seclusion like immortals.

pat!

A red bean bread spread with jam fell to the ground, leaving a stain on the tatami mat that was hard to wash off. But Nobita Shin-chan had no time to worry about this little mistake. He ran downstairs yelling and found his parents packing up their fishing gear.
"Oh, God! Oh, God! There is a god!"

The boy excitedly tugged at his mother's apron, pointing towards the mountains and shouting loudly. His mother, busy at work, didn't even look up as she twisted her son's ear.

"Go back to sleep if you're not fully awake, don't disturb your parents while they're working."

"Really, it's right there..." Nobita Shin-chan pointed to the cliff shrouded in morning mist, but suddenly fell silent.

No one knows when, but now only a sea of ​​trees swaying in the warm sun remains there, and there are no longer any immortal couples flying on swords.

"Huh, it was just here a moment ago..."

"What are you doing here? Hurry up and go eat. After you're done, make breakfast for Xiaobai!" "Okay..."

The poor fourth-grade student scratched his head and turned around, wondering if he was really not awake and was hallucinating.

However, unbeknownst to him, a hundred meters above the ground, a wisp of gray smoke, almost imperceptible to the naked eye, rippled like water. Lu Mingfei, holding Erii, looked relieved.

"It was a close call. We were almost discovered."

Despite their wild and unconventional nature, the secrets of being of mixed race are indeed not suitable for being exposed to the public eye.

Erii was being held by him, and her field of vision was limited, so she didn't notice the tiny eyewitness at her feet.

She patted the large hand that was wrapped around her legs, and Lu Mingfei understood and put her down.

The giant sword pieced together from railway tracks was not perfectly smooth; there were still gaps in the joints, and Erii's high heels still made it slightly uneven when she stepped on it.

She rarely wears high heels, and Lu Mingfei, worried that she might lose her balance, reached out to support her waist.

Erii leaned against Lu Mingfei, the door panel sword carrying the two of them across the town's main street, past the deserted school, and through a miniature Ferris wheel. Her crimson eyes looked down at the scenery passing by, her face radiating excitement and joy.

"Sakura is amazing, how did you do that?"

“If I wanted to do it, I did it.” Lu Mingfei didn’t actually know how he did it. Anyway, after he controlled the shards of the samurai sword to kill Herzog’s shadow warrior in a fit of rage last night, he automatically mastered the power of the word called “Sword Control”.

This morning, he took Erii up the mountain on the mountain tram, which was actually using this Word of Power.

At first, the tram swayed and rocked because he wasn't very familiar with it yet, but by the second half, he was able to use it like a second limb.

That's why he dared to take Erii and stage a suicide pact-style cliff jump.

Fortunately, she wasn't frightened.

"Do you like it?" He maneuvered the giant rail sword upwards, reaching the highest point of the Ferris wheel, which was also the highest point of this seaside town.

“I love it!” In Erii’s fantastical world, some humans can fly, but she can’t.

But today, Sakura helped her realize her dream of flying.

"Have you seen Titanic?" Lu Mingfei held Erii's arms with both hands, slowly lowering them to shoulder level to keep her still, then moved his hands down and asked in her ear.

"No." The girl shook her head gently. It seemed to be a fairly famous movie; she had heard people talk about it, but her brother had never bought her a DVD.

"You're right not to have seen it; there are a lot of scenes in it that are inappropriate for children and could have a bad influence on them." Lu Mingfei chuckled and gently supported her slender waist.

Want to try something more exciting?

Erii nodded vigorously, her long hair fluttering in the wind, just like the joyful heart of a young girl.

"Hehe, then tell me..." Lu Mingfei made her look at the distant sea and said, word by word:

"I'm the king of the world!"

"I'm the king of the world!"

Erii followed along word by word, and after the last word came out, the flying sword beneath her feet suddenly tilted and plummeted at a 45-degree angle, like a roller coaster in Disneyland, carrying her and Lu Mingfei toward the golden sea in the distance.

Stimulated by the feeling of weightlessness, Erii finally burst into laughter, her voice as clear and crisp as a bell falling into a mountain stream.

The giant sword swooped down into the air, then rose up with a roar, plunging straight into the shimmering sea. It sliced ​​across the surface at incredible speed, creating two bright silver streaks in the water.

The train conductor, who was still eating a cheap breakfast, dropped the rice ball in his hand. Looking at the strange scene in the distance, which was empty yet seemed to have a ship sailing through the waves, he blinked twice, muttered "I must not be fully awake yet," and rested his head on his arm before closing his eyes again.

In the distance, Mai Shude lowered her binoculars, her expression complex.

After the Holy Judgment, the Flame of the Emperor, and the Sword of the Emperor, has even her Netherworld Image been copied over?
As expected of you, Lu Mingkakafei.

In the distance, rushing into the depths of the Seto Inland Sea, Lu Mingfei, with Erii in his arms, spun, jumped, drifted, and stopped his sword on the surface of the sea. His various fancy maneuvers opened the girl's eyes.

Suddenly, Lu Mingfei noticed a school of fish migrating underwater. He twitched his fingertips and tickled Erii's waist.

The girl's giggles mingled with the sea breeze, shattering into the sound of silver bells. Lu Mingfei pretended to make a sword incantation, and the giant sword beneath his feet accelerated again, tearing through the air with a sharp whistle. The fish in the seabed were startled and scattered, as if a vicious predator was chasing them from behind.

After racing with the fish for a while, Lu Mingfei suddenly heard a "clucking sound" and saw that Erii's eyes, which had been playful, had turned into longing as she looked down at the fish.

I checked the time; it was almost eight o'clock. Time for breakfast.

With a snap of his fingers, a three-foot-long piece of thin iron separated from the edge of the giant iron rail sword and plunged into the fleeing school of fish amidst the splashing waves.

The iron bar pierced the school of fish like a streak of light. In an instant, the churning sea surface exploded to the side, and a yellowtail amberjack, more than half a meter long, was pierced through the gills, its spindle-shaped body exposed to the air as it struggled desperately.

"Dear Ms. Erii, this flight is about to return to its origin. Please be seated and hold on tight!"

With a perfunctory reminder, the giant sword, which had been raging across the sea, turned 180 degrees, creating a massive circular wave before hurtling towards the town of Meijinji.

The early morning train in Meijinji Town had just sent off the last few commuters. The train conductor yawned as he locked the ticket window, then turned around and froze in place.

A deep ripple appeared on the distant sea, and two sets of footprints appeared out of thin air on the seemingly empty platform.

One belongs to sneakers, the other to high heels.

You can still faintly hear the "clack-clack-clack" of high heels on the ground, and smell a strong fishy odor.

He rubbed his swollen eyes from working the night shift and took out his phone to search for "which shrine is most effective if you encounter a ghost in broad daylight".

Lu Mingfei had no idea what kind of psychological trauma his invisible passing had left on the train conductor. Holding Erii's hand in one hand and carrying a top-grade wild yellowtail amberjack about one meter long in the other, he slowly walked towards the town of Meijinji.

A restaurant had just opened, and the owner, wearing a headscarf, stood with his hands on his hips under the blue signboard, eagerly anticipating what interesting ingredients the fishermen would bring that day.

Upon closer inspection, one could see a boy in the distance carrying a large fish, watching with doting eyes as the girl beside him poked the fish's wriggling tail with a small twig.

Although he choked on dog food early in the morning, the shop owner still recognized that the yellowtail was definitely a top-quality specimen that had just left the water!
Ultimately, he paid a high price to acquire the right to cook the fish.

Using all his knowledge and exerting tremendous effort, he finally managed to serve the fish in nine different ways, a dish that was perfect in color, aroma, and taste.

Two hundred meters away from the platform, on the observation deck, Mai Shude put down her binoculars, glanced at the boys and girls enjoying their meal, and then at the train conductor who was muttering to himself while holding rice balls and cigarettes, bowing and nodding. She figured that it was probably none of her business anymore.

"I'm outta here, I really can't eat anymore."
