Dragon Raja: The Divine Man Lu Mingfei

The next day, the room still held the lingering scent of the previous night. Lu Mingfei was abruptly pulled back to reality by a series of urgent knocks on the door.

Yesterday, he thoroughly investigated Nuonuo's academic background. The two fought fiercely from the afternoon until dawn this morning before finally stopping. However, this was not Master Lu's limit. With his strength, he could fight for another three days and three nights without any problem. But seeing that Nuonuo was about to give up, he had no choice but to give up reluctantly.

Lu Mingfei hastily threw on a large bathrobe and went to open the door. As soon as the door was opened a crack, a stubble-covered, slightly weathered face came into view.

Professor Guderian was standing on tiptoe, craning his neck to peer inside, looking so anxious that it seemed he was about to break down the door if Lu Mingfei didn't open it soon.

"What is it, Professor?" Lu Mingfei rubbed his eyes, his tone full of drowsy annoyance, clearly just wanting to get rid of the person as soon as possible.

"It's good news, Mingfei! The principal has agreed to your request!" Professor Guderian seemed a little excited, gesturing with his signature gesture. "On the day you officially enroll in Kassel, he will publicly step down and make you the new principal of the academy! However..." His tone suddenly changed, and the professor's voice lowered, sounding hesitant, as if he was carefully choosing his words.

"But what?" Lu Mingfei frowned and pressed for an answer.

Professor Guderian sighed and finally spoke: "However, the principal said this is only his personal decision. As for the board of trustees... they will most likely not allow this to happen. The principal promised to try his best to persuade two of the trustees, but as for the rest... he can't do anything about it. You'll probably have to figure it out yourself."

The professor's voice grew softer and softer, almost to the point of muttering to himself.

He wasn't too surprised that the principal agreed to Lu Mingfei's request—after all, although the principal was an S-class like Lu Mingfei, he was getting old, and it was reasonable for him to step down to a more promising young man.

However, the thought of Lu Mingfei having to face those school board members alone made his feelings incredibly complicated. He was worried about Lu Mingfei being in danger, and also felt ashamed of his helplessness in the face of this situation.

"Yes, I understand. It seems the principal made the right decision." With that, Lu Mingfei smiled, patted Professor Guderian on the shoulder, and comforted him, "Professor, you don't need to worry. I have arrangements made for the board of directors. It's just a small matter and not worth mentioning."

Seeing Lu Mingfei's confident demeanor, Professor Guderian, though unaware of the source of his confidence, still chose to believe him.

"By the way, Mingfei, have you met Nuonuo? She's the third interviewer who came with us, the red-haired girl," the professor suddenly asked.

"Ah, yes, I have seen her..." Lu Mingfei was momentarily speechless, unsure how to answer. If the professor pressed further about where she was, should he simply say she was in his room and that he had spent the night with her? Lu Mingfei wasn't bothered by being honest, but he was worried about causing the professor unnecessary distress. The old man seemed quite concerned about him, and he didn't want to trouble him with such a personal matter.

Fortunately, Professor Guderian didn't seem to care. He glanced quickly at his watch and said hastily, "Mingfei, the principal just assigned me a new task; I have to go to Russia immediately. Ye Sheng and Yaji also have their own important matters to attend to. Your enrollment procedures will be handled by Nuonuo; she will take full responsibility. Time is of the essence; I need to catch my flight!" Before Lu Mingfei could even respond, the old professor turned and left in a flurry.

Lu Mingfei closed the door, turned around and went back into the room, only to see that Nuonuo had already woken up.

She seemed to have been awakened by the conversation, leaning against the headboard, rubbing her sleepy eyes. Her long, messy, dark red hair cascaded over her shoulders, a few strands clinging to her cheeks, making her exposed skin appear even whiter. She stared blankly at the doorway, her brain seemingly not yet fully recovered from sleep, until several minutes later her gaze gradually focused and her eyes regained their sparkle.

"Lu Mingfei!!!"

Seeing Lu Mingfei casually lift the covers and lie down next to her to catch up on sleep, Nuonuo's anger flared up instantly. She pounced on him, tightly gripping Lu Mingfei's neck with both hands, her voice filled with embarrassment and anger.

"You've ruined my reputation! This is my first time! I told you to slow down, slow down, did you just ignore me? It hurts so much! If you ever dare to shirk responsibility again, you're dead! You hear me?!"

Lu Mingfei was speechless: Didn't you seduce me first? What's the use of regretting it now? In fact, you were the one who took the initiative later on.

He patted the soft hand that was wrapped around his neck helplessly, signaling her to let go. With his current physical condition, the force was more like someone rubbing cotton against his neck; it wasn't a serious problem, but it was still inconvenient and prevented him from speaking properly.

Nono snorted coldly, took the opportunity to let go, crossed her arms and stared at him, wanting to see what kind of nonsense this guy could spout.

"Ahem, Nuonuo, I'm doing this for your own good..." Lu Mingfei cleared his throat, trying to sound sincere, but his words almost made Nuonuo lose her composure. Her cheeks were still flushed, but her eyes seemed to want to devour Lu Mingfei whole. Lu Mingfei, however, remained unfazed and continued calmly to explain:

"You may not know this, but you are not actually a 'human' in the traditional sense. You are an artificial human created by some guys using alchemy."

"I already know that. You're not trying to say that you're afraid I won't be able to accept this fact, so you're using this method to distract me and prevent me from thinking about ending my own life, are you?" Nuonuo's words revealed what Lu Mingfei was thinking.

Lu Mingfei was taken aback for a moment, then gave him a "you've seen through me" look. Instead of being embarrassed, he asked curiously, "Hey, it really is! How did you know? Do you have some kind of mind-reading ability?"

"I guessed," Nuonuo thought to herself, but she didn't mince words: "I have an ability called profiling. I can deduce what someone is thinking just by looking at their expression. So I advise you to stop lying to me in the future. I can see through you at a glance."

This is a lie. Ever since she met Lu Mingfei yesterday, Nuonuo has been trying to read what Lu Mingfei is thinking through profiling, but without exception, she has failed every time. The words she just said were all a guess. But that doesn’t stop her from using this to trick Lu Mingfei and make him afraid to lie to her in the future.

"What?! Is that so?!" Lu Mingfei feigned shock, then adopted a defeated expression, "Fine, you win. I admit defeat this time."

In this game, Nono thought she was on the second level and Lu Mingfei was on the bottom level, but in fact Lu Mingfei was on the top level.

Nuonuo thought she was on the second level and had Lu Mingfei completely fooled, but she didn't know that Lu Mingfei was actually on the top level.

After listening to her description of the ability, and combining it with yesterday's full-body scan of Nono, Lu Mingfei instantly understood the principle behind the profiling ability: it was an ability derived from imitating the Black King's eyes that could see through time and all things. It was not a high-level ability and might be useful against ordinary dragons, but it was useless in front of the Black King himself, let alone him, who was a higher-level being than the Black King.

But Lu Mingfei still deliberately put on a shocked expression. After all, Nuonuo was the first woman he had been with since he was reborn into this world. It didn't seem like there was anything wrong with going along with her and coaxing her once.
