Dragon Raja: Starting with Summoning Erii

"Again."

Xia Mu stepped back a few steps, allowing the airflow to circulate within a ten-meter radius.

"Okay, if I win next time, you can't refuse me tomorrow night either." Erii's bright eyes sparkled with a little scheme.

Xia Mu broke out in a cold sweat, feeling a bit like the genders were reversed; usually, it was the boys who put in the effort to coax the girls.

"Come!"

He was certain that Erii had complete control over her surroundings at all times, so he gave up on using cover and simply stabbed her with his dagger.

Others couldn't quite understand his actions, and such a direct attack should theoretically make it even less likely for him to win.

"Shh!"

Erii slashed with her sword, but Natsuki's figure swayed slightly at that moment.

The long knife seemed about to slash his neck, but upon closer inspection, it was discovered that his figure had shifted a meter to the side.

The dagger stopped at her delicate neck, and the two stopped moving.

The others then rubbed their eyes in unison.

I didn't understand it at all.

"You lost, you have to give me back what you just won." Xia Mu said with a smile.

Erii's pretty face changed, and she pursed her lips tightly: "Again."

"it is good."

Xia Mu laughed.

The two figures rapidly crossed paths on the deck.

This time, Erii did not stand still; her body moved and shifted with the swinging of the long sword, making it difficult for Natsuki to finish the fight easily.

The two of them were jumping back and forth between the wooden crates on the deck, making a constant clanging and banging noise.

"Xia Mu's dodge seemed to be a use of wind, a rapid push that left an afterimage in place, but Xia Liyi..."

Mans watched Erii's movements, shook his head and said, "She seems to know everything about her."

"professor…"

Ye Sheng said somewhat uncertainly, "According to what Xia Mu just said, because his Word of Power is controlled by the wind element, he can sense the airflow within the range of his Word of Power at all times. Xia Liyi's ability seems to be related to the water element. She can withstand a lot of pressure in water and can freeze into ice. Does this mean that she can sense any place with water vapor?"

Mans' eyes lit up: "That's very likely."

Ye Sheng lowered his hands, lost in thought: "Although my Word of Power isn't elemental control, the 'Snake' itself is for detection. Perhaps I can narrow down its effective range, allowing me to perceive subtle changes in my body while retaining my mobility..."

“We have never stopped exploring the power of words, but because there are so many kinds of words, it is difficult to summarize any effective training methods,” Mans shook his head and said to them, “In the end, it comes down to talent, not only bloodline talent, but also combat talent and comprehension talent. These cannot be forced.”

“So, those two are really geniuses,” Shutoku Aki remarked.

Mans couldn't help but grin from his stubble-covered mouth: "Hahaha, I'm already looking forward to going back to the academy. Caesar, Chu Zihang, and a new S-class student? Let's see if they can compete with my two students!"

"Is today the college's annual 'Free Day'? The Lionheart Society and the Student Council are probably fighting again," Selma said with a laugh.

Mans smiled and said, "I reckon the student council will win. Caesar is a year ahead of Chu Zihang, and he's basically brought the student council up."

"Which side do you think Xia Mu and the other guy will join in the future?" Shudeya asked curiously.

“I don’t know, but one thing is certain: whichever side they join, they will completely overwhelm the other,” Selma said with certainty.

Shudeya nodded repeatedly.

"They can't even determine a winner?"

Mans' voice drew their attention again. Turning around, they saw two figures on the deck moving faster and faster until they could only see two blurry figures. Neither of them gave up.

"How could I possibly compare to that..."

Ye Sheng felt ashamed.

"Yiyi, your wish can't be fulfilled."

For some reason, Natsuki did something slightly provocative to Erii.

Erii's figure suddenly stopped on a wooden box.

Xia Mu then fell down as well.

"Mumu, I'm angry."

Her simple words sent a chill down Xia Mu's spine.

"Don't…"

Before he finished speaking, Erii's pupils suddenly turned into molten gold.

The golden eyes, a symbol of power and authority, are as black as lacquer, so clear they reflect the shadows of clouds and the light of the sky, making you want to stare into them—a lonely mirror reflecting the entire world.

She spread her arms, and suddenly columnar waves rose around the huge ship, crackling and turning into ice blocks that surrounded Xia Mu.

"It's out of control?!"

Ye Sheng and the others exclaimed in surprise.

"No, don't rush."

Mans stopped them, his eyes fixed on the road ahead, his breathing slightly rapid.

This power, though strong, was still within his comprehension.

"call!"

The next moment, a gust of wind swept through, and Xia Mu's figure passed through the ice pillar blockage and quickly flew into the air.

Erii tilted her head back in an instant, meeting his golden gaze...

"It's over..."

Seeing Xia Mu fly into the air, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that the competition was over, after all, not everyone can fly.

"Alright, alright, we agreed not to use words of power..."

Mans clapped his hands, preparing to step forward and stop them from continuing.

But at that moment, Erii lightly stepped onto the top of the ice pillar, her toes barely touching the deck.

"Click click click".

The ice pillar continued to rise, and the Ice Cross Spear appeared in her hand. She leaped up, tracing a semi-circle, and slashed down at Xia Mu.

She was clearly getting into the zone. Although she knew she would only use the cooling technique and wouldn't actually hurt Xia Mu, her expression became indifferent when her golden eyes lit up.

"Wind-driven momentum!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Xia Mu unleashed the Eye of the Wind King, whipping up a hurricane as it hurtled straight ahead.

"boom!"

Erii shot back, but abruptly stopped in mid-air. Then, with a wave of her hands, all the ice pillars surged towards Natsuki, covering the sky.

"Wind Whirlwall!"

The wind howled, like a swirling vortex of blades violently cutting through the icicles.

But the ice flow continued uninterrupted, without stopping for a moment.

Natsuki's wind, however, did not have such strong endurance, and besides, he was facing Erii, so he was not going to burn his spirit.

"Kakaka…"

The barrier against the gale was broken, and countless shards of ice fell.

The red-haired girl moved like a fairy, her long sword slicing through space and landing precisely on Xia Mu's neck.

"A dust-free land!"

At this moment, Mans's golden eyes also lit up, and an invisible wave expanded outward, giving orders to all life or objects within the domain that he rejected.

"Shhhhh..."

In an instant, the falling ice blocks and the damaged wooden crates were all lifted into the air and expelled from the ship's range.

Natsuki and Erii were not rejected by him, so they landed steadily back on the deck.

Did I win?

Erii's deep golden eyes stared at Natsuki.

"You won, you won, you won."

Xia Mu raised his hands in surrender, not bothering to argue with her about whether or not he should use the power of words.

In fact, she really went all out; she could have just given a "death" order and been done with it.

Of course, he also believed that Erii wouldn't be willing to give it up now...

"You two..."

Professor Mans gave them a thumbs up: "I have nothing else to say besides this. I'm very glad that you participated in this Kuimen operation. The safety level has been greatly improved."

"Wipe it."

Shudeya handed Natsuki a tissue so he could wipe the sweat from his face.

Erii, on the other hand, was no different from before.

"I hope everyone can get back safely," Xia Mu said sincerely, wiping away his sweat.

But suddenly his hand was empty, because Erii snatched the tissue away and then held it to him, wiping his face herself.

"Wow."

The others gave a small, good-natured jeer, their laughter echoing across the ship.

Each hybrid has its own abilities. They don't have the strong curiosity to dig up every detail about Xia Mu and the other person; they just need to know that they are companions.
