"Can you pull me up first?" Xia Mu caught her breath, all her words of power stopped, and a feeling of exhaustion washed over her.

Chu Zihang reached out and pulled him up.

The heat rising from Xia Mu's body quickly dried all her clothes.

"Come on, make way."

Lancelot and the others instinctively made way for him.

They themselves were unaware of the profound admiration and awe they felt as they gazed at Xia Mu's retreating figure.

The power of faith: an eternal theme.

Xia Mu returned to the cabin, changed into a new school uniform, and only after she was completely dry did she lean back in her seat and let out a big sigh of relief.

This trip was full of unexpected events, but thankfully it ended without any serious harm.

The dragon blood surging wildly within him continued to transform his body, and before long he would become a true super hybrid, on the same level as the Genji brothers, though perhaps still a bit lacking compared to Erii.

However, the power of his words is exaggerated, almost a weakened version of the King of Bronze and Fire.

As he came into contact with and fought the Dragon King, some strange changes began to occur within his body, which led him to overturn his previous judgment.

Being able to absorb the Dragon King's blood, obtain the power of words, and acquire the Dragon King's authority and power far exceeds the scope of unlocking bloodlines through the system.

Wait, unlock?

Xia Mu paused for a moment, then suddenly understood.

Ha ha…

"Shh!"

At that moment, Erii suddenly appeared in the cabin.

She was underwater for so long that it took her a while to come to her senses and return to her original position.

Xia Mu's face suddenly felt hot, her eyes darted around, and her heart started racing.

That was... a forced kiss, wasn't it?

“Mumu…”

Erii was soaking wet, water streamed down her pretty face, and strands of her hair clung to her cheeks, giving her an alluring charm.

She sat down next to Xia Mu, ignoring her soaking wet clothes, and reached out to grab his hand, her eyes meeting his. Her pretty face was flushed, and her lips were moist.

"Mumu, you kissed me."

Xia Mu looked away, avoiding eye contact, but his hands warmed up, helping to evaporate all the moisture from her body.

Erii felt warm all over.

"Mumu, you kissed me."

She relentlessly tried to manipulate Xia Mu's hand.

Xia Mu, exasperated by her teasing, turned to look at her, her face slightly flushed: "Yes, I kissed you."

At this point, I couldn't possibly explain to her that I was short of oxygen; that would be too...shameless!

"laugh."

The girl first smiled, but then her gaze shifted, and she tightened her grip on his hand, asking, "Then...we..."

She didn't know what was wrong with her; her heart was pounding like a drum, and she couldn't breathe properly.

“We…you…”

Her long eyelashes trembled, and her eyes were filled with a mix of emotions: trepidation, tension, unease, longing, and hope.

"do you like me?"

She finally spoke up.

Over time, she learned from her phone that she and he had done many things that couples do, such as holding hands, hugging, sleeping and showering together, living together, and so on.

But what exactly is their relationship?

She doesn't understand.

She loved the feeling of being cared for, loved the calming aura emanating from him, loved the small happiness of being held by him as if she possessed the whole world, loved being taught, summoned, and...needed.

Gradually, she wanted more and more; her eyes, her world, everything about her revolved around one person.

She wanted that person to be like her.

"Mumu, do you like me?"

Erii suddenly straightened up, her wine-red eyes meeting Natsuki's gaze. The unease in her eyes gradually faded, replaced by a majesty and calmness similar to that of the Golden Boy when he shone.

She knew what she wanted; she was waiting for an answer.

Looking into those beautiful eyes and at the serious expression on her face, Xia Mu finally reached out and gently, very gently, embraced her slender body.

"Ah."

Chapter 173 Angers: What are the Seven Deadly Sins?

"Splash!"

At the Kassel College training ground, a petite figure suddenly emerged from the water, splashing water everywhere.

"Zero, come here, dry yourself quickly, be careful not to catch a cold."

Lu Mingfei, like a lackey, handed over a clean white bath towel, which Ling wrapped around her body and quickly dried her off.

Zero glanced at him, then expressionlessly returned the towel.

Lu Mingfei quickly took it and handed him a cup of ginger tea: "Drink this, be careful not to catch a cold."

Zero didn't say anything, but he took it and slowly drank it.

Since training began these past few days, Lu Mingfei has shown great concern for Ling Qichang, showering her with care and attention, making everyone else think that this S-rank was pursuing a girl.

Actually, it's just because Caesar and Zero are in Group A, while he and Nono are in Group B. As long as Zero doesn't have any accidents, he won't need to dive, and Group A will be the one to carry out the mission.

"Is this how you pursue girls? Have you forgotten what I told you? Flowers, music, and a loud confession!" Nuonuo said, sounding exasperated.

Lu Mingfei rolled his dead fish eyes, too lazy to explain.

"I don't like those."

Zero casually remarked, whether it was a reminder to Lu Mingfei not to use that tactic, or an implication that his current groveling was good and excellent, please continue.

"Winter...dong...dong..."

Suddenly, the melodious sound of the bell rang out, like a clock striking the hour, echoing throughout the entire campus and lingering for a long time.

"What the hell?"

Lu Mingfei looked up and saw a flock of white doves flying above the church.

They danced around the campus, circling again and again, without ever falling.

"I feel uneasy every time I hear this bell."

Nono tilted her head back with a blank expression.

"What does this bell mean?" Lu Mingfei's heart tightened for some reason.

"It means someone has left us."

Caesar strode over, his expression cold and stern.

"Leave...someone got into trouble while on a mission?" Lu Mingfei realized.

"Currently, only Chu Zihang and Xia Mu are on the mission; they are in the first phase..."

A shadowy, unknown light flickered in Caesar's azure eyes. For Chu Zihang, the opponent he acknowledged, "We need to train at a higher intensity."

My Healing Game

"Xiamu..."

Lu Mingfei lowered his hands, the bath towel fell to the ground, and an indescribable loneliness overwhelmed him.

Although he never expressed it, he never neglected to pay attention to Xia Mu, who had pulled him out of the mire.

Xia Mu was so amazing that Lu Mingfei once thought that Xia Mu's brilliance would always overshadow him at Kassel College, preventing him from bearing the S-class halo alone...

"Wait, wait a minute."

Suddenly, the bell stopped abruptly.

Manstein's slightly embarrassed voice echoed across the campus, breaking the somber atmosphere: "Wrong number... pigeon, put the pigeon back in its nest!"

He was yelling at someone, and soon the pigeons all returned to their nests.

"Operation Bronze is over."

The principal's gentle voice, tinged with a faint joy and a hint of barely perceptible surprise, echoed throughout the campus.

"Just received news that Operation Bronze's first execution team has successfully completed its mission. Lionheart Society President Chu Zihang led the team to eliminate the next generation of the species, while Vice President Xia Mu infiltrated the lair of the King of Bronze and Fire and slew Dragon King Norton..."

He paused, giving all the students time to process this astonishing news.

"For the first time in human history, a dragon king has been completely buried. Let's cheer for Xia Mu."

After Angers finished speaking, the entire campus remained silent for a while before screams that pierced the sky erupted, followed by cheers and howls, turning the campus into a den of wolves.

"They... actually succeeded."

Caesar paused for a moment, then smiled and laughed, "Very good, this is the kind of opponent I acknowledge."

Nono rolled her eyes: "Then all our training was for nothing?"

"Isn't white silk good enough?"

Lu Mingfei was so happy he almost jumped up: "A good-for-nothing like me would only be a hindrance if I went into the water, and might even lose my life there. Now... cough."

Zero's cold, indifferent gaze instantly froze him.

"I mean... it's so great that Xia Mu and the others are back safe and sound! I'm so happy! So excited! Really!" Lu Mingfei said, his face lighting up with joy again.
