Dragon Raja: Starting with Summoning Erii

Her bright voice and cute tone instantly melted Erii's heart.

This is my own child!

She suddenly understood this, and it felt as if warm sunshine was shining into her heart.

"Are you a girl?" she asked softly.

"What is a girl?" Xia Mi asked, feigning innocence.

Erii blinked her beautiful big eyes, and a distant memory surfaced in her mind: "Girls are... people with soft, fluffy chests..."

"Um... well... I'm a girl..."

Xia Mi almost burst out laughing.

Erii suddenly realized something was wrong: "How did you know to call me 'Mom'? How did you understand what I meant?"

She's not a clueless little girl anymore; she's read many books and listened to other people's experiences about marriage and having children.

But now, this has shattered her understanding.

Even the records of the Snake Clan regarding hybrids and dragons don't mention anything like this.

At most, they might hybridize into a dragon or something...

"I don't know, it's like I was born knowing these things," Xia Mi stammered.

Erii's forehead lit up like a lightbulb: "Is it like when I merged with the White King's bloodline, that there's knowledge passed down?"

Xia Mi blinked her eyes in her mother's womb and nodded repeatedly: "Mmm, I seem to have known these things since birth, and I know more and more."

"What else do you know?" Erii asked curiously, resting her chin on her hand.

Xia Mi was just wondering how to bring up that topic when this came to her, like a pillow appearing when she was sleepy.

“Mom, I saw the end of the world… and the end of the world.” She spoke with a solemn tone in her childish voice.

Erii paused, her expression slowly changing: "What...do you mean?"

Some bad premonitions suddenly exploded in my mind without warning.

Actually, she's been avoiding a certain fact... her Mumu has been absorbing the Dragon King's power to increase its strength, and now all four monarchs have been absorbed...

Who's left?

The White King's power is entirely in her hands.

“Mom, I see… only Dad can stop the end of the world…” Xia Mi hesitated before speaking.

Erii's deep red eyes darkened: "What do you want to say?"

"Mom, what if I told you... only the power within you could help Dad create a new world?" Xia Mi said softly.

Erii's body trembled slightly.

"Do you... want me to sacrifice myself?" she asked quietly.

Xia Mi was taken aback, and quickly said, "No, it's just because..."

"I know, because it's the only way."

Erii abruptly interrupted her, a strange tenderness appearing in her eyes as she looked up. "Actually, deep down I've already made up my mind... That's why I'm willing to have a baby with him..."

Xia Mi was even more stunned.

She was still stuck in her past perception, because Erii would always be the girl that Natsuki had protected so well.

She didn't need to think for herself or do anything; she could simply stay safely under Xia Mu's protective wings.

So, it turns out she had already thought about all this?

“I’ve been thinking about where I fall short of Natsumi…” Erii said softly.

Xia Mi's curiosity was piqued: "Why do you think I'm worse than her?"

“No, I used to think it was because of what I gave. Unlike her, I didn’t give myself completely to Mumu,” Erii shook her head gently. “Now I know, it’s not because of her. It’s because she’s gone. For me, someone who is no longer here is someone I can’t defeat, because she will always live in Mumu’s heart.”

Xia Mi was somewhat dazed... Could such insightful words really have come from Erii's mouth?

“Everyone’s needs for love and the right way to get along are different. I now know that there is no problem with my relationship with Mumu. I lack a sense of security, and Mumu is willing and able to give me a lot of security, so that’s good enough. There is no problem.”

Erii concluded, "It's just that I feel inferior to Natsumi's sacrifice; that's just my own opinion."

"I don't understand..." Xia Mi said softly.

Erii paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "Yes, this is between your father and me. It's okay if you don't understand. Just know that I know what to do in the end and that I'm prepared."

Xia Mi softened her voice.

"Actually, I didn't want Mom to sacrifice herself..."

Chapter 419 I am Xia Mi

"what?"

Erii's eyes widened slightly. "I have completely fused with the White King's bloodline. If I were to hand it over to Mumu, just like the other four monarchs who have all died, I would definitely die too."

“But…Xia Mi didn’t die, did she?” Xia Mi said softly.

"Ok?"

Erii's forehead creased with a question mark. "You even know this?"

Xia Mi felt a little embarrassed... For some reason, she was always a little shy to tell Erii that she was Xia Mi.

This feeling is strange.

He did take advantage of her after all, but he's destined to compete with her for men in the future, using the strangest and most unconventional relationships...

“I understand the fundamental truth of the world. Since Xia Mi, who is not a true king, can still create a spiritual cocoon, it should be even simpler for you, the newly born White King.”

"But I don't know how."

Erii couldn't help but ask, "Can you do it?"

Like a sudden turn of events, her mood soared from the valley to the mountainside.

If she could survive, see her Mumu again, and stay with him forever, she felt that the world would become brighter.

"meeting."

Natsumi's affirmative answer sent Erii's spirits soaring to the peak.

"Really?" Erii pressed.

"real!"

Xia Mi seemed to be infected by her mood as well, and said with a smile, "With Dad's obsession with you, it's too easy to leave a mental cocoon in his mind!"

"Mom, listen to me. I'll teach you how to fool the world's rules and protect your spirit from annihilation when the boundary between the land of the dead and the world of the living comes between us..."

Xia Mi imparted all her experience from this experience to Erii, explaining it repeatedly two or three times, afraid that Erii might overlook any details.

In fact, Erii could not possibly ignore this, as it concerned her own life and her future with Natsuki.

She couldn't imagine the pain and despair Xia Mu would feel after she died.

How do you know all this so clearly?

After Erii memorized everything, a question resurfaced in her mind, along with a strange feeling: "These... are things that Natsumi knew, right?"

Xia Mi's heart skipped a beat, and she said softly, "I don't know either... Is it because I inherited her perception?"

"Mumu said that Xia Mi will come back to life."

Erii gently stroked her belly, "If it's in this form, then it's quite nice."

"Why?" Xia Mi asked.

Erii said softly, "Mumu feels guilty towards Xia Mi. I'll help him repay this debt of gratitude. That way, he won't be bound by it. I hope that everything he does is because he likes it, and not because of any other reason."

Xia Mi remained silent for a long time before asking, "Is this what marriage is?"

“Yes, this is what a married couple is like.” Erii nodded earnestly.

"So, can you tell me the truth now?"

She said softly, "You always treat me like a child, you don't want me to know anything, you always make excuses for doing things, just because you're afraid I can't accept it, but I... I'm really not a child anymore."

After a while, Xia Mi finally said cautiously, "Actually, Xia Mu can't have children..."

Erii's eyes flickered: "So..."

"Therefore, it is my spiritual form that enables you to have children..."

Natsumi said softly, "Eri, I am Natsumi..."

Erii remained silent for a while, even her hand stroking her belly seemed a little stiff.

"How are you feeling? Don't be angry. If you don't like it, I'll stay far away from you from now on and won't disturb your life with Xia Mu... Just give me a little time now and then." Xia Mi quickly said.

Erii's body slowly relaxed from its stiffness, and she let out a soft sigh. "Xia Mi, do you also feel guilty towards me?"

Xia Mi was taken aback by the question and hesitated for a moment before saying, "Well... I feel guilty towards you... You and Xia Mu were a match made in heaven. He was your salvation, and you were a bright spot in his life. You could have been so happy... It was me, it was me who barged in..."

"You're right, but there aren't that many 'what ifs'."

Erii looked out the window at the world, at the dark, heavy clouds, at the lightning and thunder, and at the rolling thunderclouds.

"Xia Mi, I'm a little happy that you became my child."

Xia Mi stared in disbelief: "W-what?!"

“Think about it, if the child isn’t you, then there’s one more person among the three of us, and we’ll be competing for Mumu’s attention in the future,” Erii said.

Xia Mi: "..."

"And another thing, once you have a baby, there will be even more people, and Mumu's attention will be divided into four parts..."

Erii counted on her fingers, "But now, besides you and me, it will always be the three of us together, and no one else will come in."

Xia Mi thought to herself, "Wow!"

"I was worried that you wouldn't be able to accept such a strange relationship."
