Chapter 198: One Night, We Will Wake Up to Revel in Life
In the splashing sound of water, Yin Xiamo elegantly found a spot where the water was slightly shallower and sat down beside me. The noon sunlight directly penetrated through the small holes in the rock cave and fell on this slightly cool and clear spring water. Due to our movements in the water, ripples appeared on the surface, and various bright spots around the stalactite cave began to sway slightly due to the water’s refraction.
For a moment, the vast stalactite cave seemed to come alive, with the water surface gently swaying, sunlight dancing, and rainbows scattering in all directions. From the sunlight shining from above, it could be seen that there was no dust in this cave, and the air seemed to be free of any impurities, clean as if it were a utopia from a fairy tale or legend.
It’s really beautiful here…
In the water, I tried to raise my hand, cupped some water, and lifted it to the place where the sunlight shone from above. The already fair skin of my small hand appeared particularly alluring under the sunlight, with slender jade-like fingers, fair as porcelain, and a healthy rosy glow that even I found irresistibly tempting.
It felt like a place so clean that you could see the stones at the bottom of the lake directly, even if Yin Xiamo didn’t mention it, I could tell that the water quality was exceptionally good.
In a daze, my gaze fell on the girl next to me. Although I had jokingly teased Xiao Mo about her lack of chest during our first meeting, I had to admit that her figure was actually quite good.
In her normal human state, Yin Xiamo didn’t have the pointed ears of the demon race, the iconic jet-black long hair, or the eerie purple eyes of the demon race. Her body seemed to have “shrunk” a bit, but whether it was the proportion of her head to height, the ratio of chest to waist to hips, or the length of thighs to calves, it perfectly adhered to contemporary aesthetics.
When we customized the maid outfit, Xiao Mo provided her body measurements: a bust of 78, B cup, and she mentioned her body was roughly these measurements. While looking at the numbers didn’t evoke much feeling, during moments like showering together, cuddling at night, or undressing in the water, I would always be amazed at Xiao Mo’s perfectly sculpted body.
She doesn’t have the voluptuous figure like Lan Jiajia or Ouyang Xue. Yin Xiamo belongs to the slender type of girl. Perhaps due to frequent battles or training in the otherworld, Xiao Mo’s body is much more “refined” compared to mine, which is on the softer side.
Her flesh is tight and firm everywhere, with no softness in her thighs or calves. You can faintly see some abdominal muscles, and there’s a hint of a vest line in the middle, though not very prominent—it’s just enough to give a slight feeling without compromising the softness typical of a woman.
Some people might like this kind of figure, while others may not have a preference. At least, I quite like it. Of course, the B-cup size might still be considered small for many, but I can confidently say that Xiao Mo is not like the first time we met, where my initial impression was… “no chest.”
“Hmm? What’s up, little pet.”
Probably sensing my gaze, Xiao Mo beside me lifted her small head, “Did you feel something because you saw my body? It’s okay, you know, there’s no one within ten kilometers, and it’s only noon. You can do anything you want.”
“It’s not like that!”
I turned my head away, a bit embarrassed, “I just… just if I say I’m appreciating the scenery, would you believe it?”
It’s similar to when I used to enjoy looking for beautiful pictures in the art section when I interacted with the uncle before. Right now, Xiao Mo under the sunlight in the stalactite cave truly resembles those beautiful girls in the pictures, making me not harbor any strange thoughts.
Or maybe it’s like the quality of RPG game graphics that are made to the right side (the best quality).
The scenery here is already beautiful enough with the spring water, stalactites, and sunlight. Taking a photo from any angle with a phone would likely result in an exquisite wallpaper. In terms of appearance and figure, Xiao Mo belongs to the delicate and impeccable type. Adding her to the wallpaper would truly turn it into a masterpiece.
I suspect that if I record a video with my phone here and watch it later, I might think it’s some effect from a non-Western game.
“Just what? Just wanted to play with me and turn into a little fountain?”
Under my gaze, Yin Xiamo smirked, “No problem at all! There’s drinkable water everywhere here today, and we can just… keep going forever, until the end of time!”
“I didn’t think about it in that way at all!”
Not sure how to refute, I walked over, creating splashes, and sat down beside Yin Xiamo. “I just feel that you, Xiao Mo, and the scenery here complement each other. I simply want to appreciate it.”
“Uh…”
My words made the girl slightly silent for a moment. “Actually, I get that feeling from you too.”
“Huh?”
“Nuo’er might not know, but you are more suited to this place. Your body is small, fair, and tender, with the purest elven skin and body curves. At this age, it’s just the time when elves begin to develop, the most tender period. You don’t know how enticing you looked just now under the sunlight.”
Really?
Although… I am aware that my current appearance is indeed cuter than Xiao Mo’s, considering that this body was created with the concept of the “perfect puppet,” the problem is… I can’t see it. When I lower my head, I can at most see my slightly raised chest and slender legs. Unless I look in the mirror, I can’t see my face at all. Being cute doesn’t seem to have much significance to me.
“Especially, when paired with Nuo’er and your silly appearance, the first impression people get is that this child is particularly naive and easy to deceive.”
Seeing me still in a daze, Yin Xiamo has already taken hold of my hand. “Probably easily deceived by just a cotton candy.”
“A cotton candy could never deceive me!”
I instinctively retorted, “I’m an adult, and I have money!”
“What about a crispy shark?”
“Uh…”
I paused and then asked in confusion, “What’s the big difference between these two?”
Currently, a single crispy shark costs two yuan, while an ordinary cotton candy outside is generally priced between three to four yuan per bunch. In terms of price alone, isn’t cotton candy more expensive?
“Nuo’er hesitated, it seems there’s a chance to deceive her with a bigger stake.”
Yin Xiamo looked very happy and said, “Want to see? The story of the brave hero and the dragon princess.”
“Huh?”
I didn’t immediately grasp the leap in her thoughts. “The story of the dragon princess?”
“In a while, I’ll leave the ‘coordinates’ here. At most, by tomorrow, she might find a way to come over. These won’t be secrets anymore, I can show them to you in advance.”
“Show in advance… what?”
I still didn’t catch on. “Is there a magical device like a video recorder in the otherworld?”
“Not really…”
Yin Xiamo in the water opened her legs, gesturing to the area in front of her. “Nuo’er, come here.”
“Are you plotting something extraordinary again?”
“No, really, I just want to explain the situation of the Black Dragon Princess to you.”
The girl earnestly said, “Sit here.”
I hesitated for a moment but ultimately chose to trust this Grim Reaper with an extraordinary identity. Accompanied by the sound of flowing water, I sat in front of Yin Xiamo with my back to her. “Like this?”
“Yes, it’s almost noon now. Nuo’er, you can take a nap.”
Behind me, Yin Xiamo spoke with a somewhat gentle tone, “Among the demon race, there is a type of succubus. When they encounter someone they don’t like but don’t want to resort to violence, they cast a kind of dream spell, forcing them into deep sleep. Later, they take away the person’s essence while they sleep. The content of this dream is controllable, meaning these succubi can decide whether the person they feed on experiences nightmares or sweet dreams.”
Yin Xiamo gently cradled my head in her hands, “Although I don’t know dark magic of the demon race, studying illusions like this is not a problem. Nuo’er, you can rest a bit here. I’ll tell you the main segments of the time when the hero interacted with the Black Dragon Princess as the content of the dream.”
She continued, running her fingers through my long hair, “Is it challenging to manage it every day? Wasn’t it uncomfortable at first?”
“A bit,” I nodded, “but it gets much better once you get used to it.”
Long hair can be troublesome, but my aesthetic preference is for girls with long hair. So, to wake up every morning and see a cute version of myself in the mirror, I think it’s worth spending some time on hair care.
“Take a short nap, child.”
She embraced my waist, allowing my body to lean back slightly, and my small head rested against her soft chest. Yin Xiamo whispered, “I’ll wake you up in a while.”
Is it my imagination? Why does Xiao Mo suddenly seem to exude a “gentle big sister” vibe?
“Okay.”
Although I still didn’t quite understand what Xiao Mo was planning to do, out of trust in her, I closed my eyes, trying to relax my body and mind as usual, letting my consciousness enter a state of chaos.
Before long, in the warm water slightly tinged with a hint of coolness, lying in the soft embrace of Yin Xiamo, drowsiness overcame me.
“……”
……
When I regained consciousness again, I found myself in the middle of a vast jungle, sitting on what seemed to be the ruins of some ancient relic. In my direct line of sight were several gigantic dragons towering to dozens of meters in height.
They were real dragons, with massive dragon heads, majestic wings, sharp claws, and powerful dragon tails. There was approximately a distance of one or two hundred meters between me and the dragons, yet even at this distance, I could still feel the imposing pressure emanating from those colossal creatures.
The dragons were encircling a circular altar in the middle of the forest. On the left side of the altar was a man wearing a black windbreaker, draped in tattered cloak, holding a long spear emitting a faint aqua-blue glow. On the right side was an impatient-looking girl with sharp claws on both hands, radiating a cold gleam under the sunlight.
I tried to turn my head to look at the other dragons, but it seemed that at this moment, I couldn’t control my body. My line of sight remained fixed on the man holding the long spear.
“Chieftain! How many times have I said that Fei Luo[1] hates this kind of dragon-slaying hero game!”
I was still wondering where this place was when the girl on the right side of the altar spoke. Her voice was very pleasant, “Even if he is a hero, what does he have to do with our dragon race! The Demon King, no matter how powerful, wouldn’t dare to attack us!”
The girl with clawed gauntlets spoke in a language completely unfamiliar to me. However, strangely, at this moment, I could understand what she meant.
“Fei Luo!”
At this point, the black-scaled dragon closest to the girl on the right side of the altar spoke, with a stable middle-aged male voice, “The demon race has just declared war on the elf tribe, attacked the Elf Tree. The situation is already very serious. Fei Luo, try a match with him.”
“Yeah.” Another calm baritone voice came from the left side, and a red-scaled dragon waved its wings, stirring up gusts of wind, “Maybe he really is the hero who can defeat the Demon King and save the world?”
I don’t know whether the red-scaled dragon holds a significant position among the dragon race or was just startled by the earlier declaration of war on the elf tribe by the demon race, but the girl on the right side of the altar suddenly contracted her pupils, “Has the demon race become so audacious?”
“Otherwise, why would we have summoned you here?”
The red-scaled dragon seemed to sigh, “If this hero can prove his strength, forming an alliance with him might not be impossible.”
“Indeed, it’s the tradition of the dragon race, always has been.”
“Always has been.”
“Then why does the hero have someone from the demon race with him?”
While speaking, the girl turned her gaze toward me, “Hey, what is your relationship with him?”
“Friends.”
At this moment, my mouth opened uncontrollably, using the unfamiliar language, “We are friends.”
“This is truly magical, someone called a hero, actually friends with a member of the demon race.”
The girl on the right side of the altar moved her hands casually, “Whatever, just a human. Being friends with the demon race or going to bed with succubi catgirls, it’s none of my concern. Come on, let’s get this over with, I’m short on time.”
“……”
Under my gaze, the young man on the left, draped in a tattered cloak, swung his long spear. A large amount of water patterns composed of light blue water elements scattered in the air, “Princess, my apologies.”
“Don’t call me Princess! I hate it when people treat me like a girl!”
The girl on the right angrily declared, “Treat me as a man, treat me as the mighty Black Dragon, got it? Especially, don’t disgust me with your human knight’s code!”
The young man was taken aback, “Alright, Princess.”
“Are you deliberately picking a fight?”
The girl gave a meaningful look to the several dragons around her, “Uncle, let’s begin. I won’t stop until I settle the score with this guy today!”
“Alright.”
Upon hearing this, the dragons intuitively flapped their wings and rose into the air, positioning themselves at the east, west, south, and north corners of the altar, their bodies bowing down.
Instantly, four beams of light emanated from the wings of these dragons, forming a semi-transparent cubic barrier that securely enclosed the altar.
Seeing the altar locked by the dragon magic, “I” involuntarily took a step forward and extended a small hand towards the young man on the left.
Shortly after, as if remembering something, “I” withdrew the hand and stared at the young man.
“There are many water mages among humans, I know. Water magic is generally associated with healing and uplifting spirits, belonging to the auxiliary category of magic.”
The girl on the right, her claws glowing with golden light, remarked, “Spears are considered the king of weapons among humans, also the most powerful in terms of destructive force. I’ve seen water mages, I’ve seen spearmen, I’ve seen magic warriors with both sword and spear. But a water-using spearmen, this is my first time.”
“Perhaps you are someone with a kind heart, hoping to possess strong combat capabilities to lead everyone in the forefront, and also wanting to rescue and save, ending up as a mediocre hero who pleases neither side, am I right?”
“Princess.”
The young man spoke, “The strength of magic and martial arts lies not in the attribute but in how you use them…”
“I’ve told you countless times, don’t call me Princess! You, smelly man, if I knew soul magic, the first thing I’d do is turn you into the so-called Princess!”
The young man’s words were interrupted by the girl on the right, “Forget it, I won’t argue with someone like you. Let’s begin!”
As soon as the girl finished speaking, a brilliant golden light instantly emanated from her hands. She crouched down and, with a burst of speed, rushed towards the young man. Her claws, gleaming with golden light, aimed straight for the young man’s neck, “Holy Radiance Blade!”
“Water Prison!”
The young man remained calm, wielding his long spear as a large amount of water elements gushed out—
“Boom!”
The two formidable energies collided in mid-air, triggering a violent explosion. The shockwave shook the barrier maintained by the four dragons in unison, causing it to tremble three times and shaking the ground continuously. The earthquake even resulted in some trees in the forest tilting slightly.
“You’ve got some skills.”
The girl, thrown back by the explosion, performed a backward somersault and landed smoothly. Once again, she activated the energy within her and charged towards the young man—
“How about this one? Dragon’s Roar!”
“Aqua Dragon Break!”
“Boom—”
This battle lasted for nearly five hours before coming to an end.
In the end, the “Hero” on the left exhausted the “Black Dragon Princess” on the right. After three consecutive attempts to stand up ended in failure, she reluctantly raised her hand in surrender.
As dusk fell, the barrier maintained by the four dragons dissipated.
“Your moves are quite domineering, both in terms of aggression and offense, stronger than any opponent I’ve encountered,” said the young man, walking slowly towards the girl in the twilight. He extended his hand, “If it weren’t for water magic’s ability to be gentle yet strong, restraining those moves of yours, I would have probably lost from the beginning.”
“You…”
The girl looked at the outstretched hand of the young man, her face slightly red. Reluctantly, she grabbed it and used the leverage to stand up, “I lost, that’s it. I have nothing more to say. I’ll check on those collaboration matters after I’ve rested enough.”
“No need to rush these days.”
Seeing the girl stand up, the young man turned to me, “Xiao Mo.”
“Yeah.”
“I” spoke, “Thanks for your hard work.”
“By the way, do you have any dragons here proficient in lightning magic?” After exchanging greetings with “me,” the young man turned to the dragon girl, “Or perhaps a book on magic.”
“Why are you looking for a lightning magic book?”
The dragon girl wondered, “Aren’t you a water mage?”
“My little friend from the demon tribe has a talent for lightning magic.”
“What’s your relationship with them?”
“Friends.”
“Just friends?”
“Yeah… you could also say master and servant?”
“……”
……
Next, the scene changed, and I found myself standing in a very dark place, with a young man and a girl sitting by the bonfire in front of me.
The face of the young man was not very clear, but I could recognize him from his attire as the previous “human hero,” and the girl wrapped in scale armor should be the “Dragon Princess.”
Because “I” might be hiding in some hidden bushes, neither of them seemed to notice this side, chatting away casually.
“Why do you hate your current gender?”
“The combat power of male dragon tribes is much stronger than that of female dragons. Even with many mages and warriors, they are not afraid.”
“Sometimes combat power cannot measure everything about a person.”
“Then what else can be measured?”
“I find girls cute.”
“What’s the use of being cute? If I were a powerful male black dragon back then, my mom… Mom wouldn’t have died…”
“Sorry…”
“It’s a long time ago, a thousand years? Or maybe two thousand years? I’m not sad anymore. I just hate that I couldn’t protect my family at that time. People outside say that dragon tribes are the most powerful race, but even as dragons, we can’t do everything.”
“……”
“Ah… really, if I could use soul magic, I would definitely create the cutest girl’s body according to your standards and then stuff your soul into it!”
“Soul magic is forbidden magic, including the magic of creating a body, it’s also forbidden. Currently, there is no one in the world who can learn two types of forbidden magic at the same time.”
“I don’t care! It’s just two forbidden curses! If others can’t learn, I’ll learn! Every time I see your face, you act so naturally educating people just because you’re a man, it really annoys me! When you become a little girl, let’s see how proud you can be!”
“That’s impossible…”
“……”
……
Following that, there was another moment of blurred consciousness.
“Xiao Mo, Xiao Mo?”
“Huh? Oh.”
The awakened “me” raised my head and asked, “What’s wrong?”
“Why are you daydreaming again?”
A familiar voice came from above, “These are thunder-type spell books obtained from the Dragon’s Well of Life. The content of two of these books is said to be so profound that not even the most powerful thunder dragon has completely mastered it. You can try learning from them.”
“Oh…”
“I” took the thin sheepskin parchment books with strange magic patterns on them.
“Hey, Hero!”
At this moment, from the nearby forest, there came a voice that was indistinguishable in gender but so loud that the entire forest seemed to be shaking, “How can you leave without telling this princess?”
In this deafening voice, a black giant dragon flew from a distance, landing with a resounding “boom” in the open space ahead. Then, in a burst of light, it transformed into the appearance of a young girl. “Are you really leaving?”
“I have a lot of things to handle.”
The voice of the young man beside me carried a hint of helplessness, “Now that the Demon King’s forces are growing, I want to recruit more people to the alliance and increase our chances of winning.”
“Can’t you stay in the Dragon Forest? Even if it’s for ten years? Oh no, just one year, half a year! Just half a year!”
“Sorry…”
“Hmph, then I’ll go with you!”
“Well… Princess Fei Luo, if you go with us, the Dragon King will probably squash me.”
“If he squashes you, I’ll grab your soul, stuff it into a little girl’s body, and educate you just like you educated me at that time! Anyway, you’ve already used that forbidden curse, the soul won’t die!”
The girl assumed the posture of an elder, with vivid expressions, “When you turn into a little girl, I’ll… Oh, Hero, don’t dwell on gender. Look how cute little girls are. Combat power isn’t the only measure of a person’s abilities. You can be in charge of cuteness, be the mascot at home, and I’ll handle the fighting to protect our country…”
“Are you still thinking about that…?”
“Ahaha, just kidding. Actually, I envy that little demon. She gets to be with the Hero every day.”
“Have a safe journey. If you encounter any troubles, feel free to come to the Dragon Forest. I’ll receive you with the highest courtesy of the dragon race!”
“……”
……
Finally, as I was led away by the young man, “I” looked back at the girl behind me.
The girl made a funny face towards me and mouthed —
?Be happy?
“……”
……
I woke up in the stalactite cave on the Moon Orchid Island mountains, submerged in the fountain lake water.
“How do you feel?”
As soon as I opened my eyes, I heard the voice of Yin Xiamo above my head. “Wasn’t the battle between the Hero and the giant dragon exciting? Isn’t the Hero very handsome?”
“Uh…”
Covering my head, overwhelmed by the sudden influx of information, I took a while before saying, “Indeed… it was very exciting.”
Because it was a dream, the details of what happened were not very clear after waking up, but the general process was still vivid.
The battles in the otherworldly realm are truly beyond description with just words or a few pictures.
Colorful forests, bizarre giant trees, and the air filled with magical elements…
An adult dragon measuring fifty to sixty meters, facing such a colossal creature, always made me feel incredibly insignificant as a human.
Most importantly, the magic in the otherworldly realm is indeed as described by Yin Xiamo—capable of triggering avalanches, tsunamis, earthquakes, and volcanic eruptions with ease.
And… the encounter between the Hero and the Black Dragon Princess was also unexpected for me.
From the scene during their parting, I could sense that their relationship was very good, indeed second only to that little demon.
If, in the future, the Hero allies with the Dragon Clan again during the large-scale war against the Demon King’s army, his relationship with the Black Dragon Princess might even reach new heights.
However, the problem is…
I turned around, looking at Yin Xiamo, who was still naked and had a happy smile on her face.
“Is that dragon really coming?” I asked with a trembling voice.
It’s a bit… not good.
Although our relationship is good, in the dream, I roughly learned something—namely, a certain Black Dragon Princess has been fixated on the Hero’s gender, always thinking about wanting to “turn the Hero into a little girl.”
Now, in my current state… if she really comes, wouldn’t I be laughed at?
Even though I don’t have the memories of being a Hero, in their eyes, I seem to be the scumbag Hero who, under the pretext of “alliance,” flirts with others all over the world.
“She’s really coming, I wasn’t joking.”
In my somewhat terrified gaze, Yin Xiamo stood up, stretching lazily in the sunlight.
“With this commotion, at the latest, by tomorrow, that little princess will be able to find the ‘coordinates’ of this place. You… you figure it out for yourself.”
“……”
……
TL Notes:
The dragon princess name should be Philo or Filo.
**Spoiler Alert!!**
However, because later she will come to Earth and will try to live on Earth, and she will also try to work and must have an ID, that’s why her name will be adjusted, so I translated it directly here according to the Pinyin so that you won’t be confused later.
