Summary:

"Brother Chu Zihang, you are so quiet and secretive. How much regret do you have to bear before you can sleep soundly?"

"Principal Ange, how heavy is the hatred you've carried throughout your life? Would a big hug help alleviate your sorrow a little?"

"What about you, Eri? The story says you're a miko-like girl. You must be very beautiful, the kind that could make me addicted to you."

"I really want to see you!"

……

A recurring nightmare about the future made Lu Mingfei cry all night long, covering himself with the quilt. His tears of sadness seemed to drown the world.

There are three thousand knives in the world, and regret is the most deadly.

The tears that were more powerful than a rainstorm finally washed away Lu Mingfei's stagnant life and wiped out the cowardice hidden in his bones.

Kendo, knowledge, strength... the boy will hold on to everything.

The gates of Kassel are wide open, and the train of destiny whistles towards the other side. This time, the dragon-slaying boy is determined to raise his sword to protect his girl, cut off all regrets, and conquer the world!

……

PS: The most responsible man Lu Mingfei

Chapter 1 Eri, wait for me!

"Chen Motong, married woman, bad woman."

"Chen Wenwen, little tea, stupid woman."

"Chu Zihang, good senior brother, you are such a gossip."

"Lu Mingze, little devil, stupid Ou Doudou."

"Herzog, dead man."

The amber-like morning light shone obliquely onto the desk through the glass window. When the boy wrote this, he couldn't help but take a deep breath and stare at the black hardcover notebook in front of him. Then, as if he had summoned all his strength, he wrote the following words on the last line.

"Uesugi Erie, my love."

Lu Mingfei stared at the last line of words for a long time, as if the girl who had been haunting his dreams but had never met was hiding in the book and jumping onto the paper. The boy held his chin and looked at her carefully, with tenderness in his eyes and at the corners of his mouth.

Over the years, this is what Lu Mingfei would do every day without getting tired of it, as if writing those contents by hand day after day was not enough. The boy seemed to want to engrave the last name deeply in his bones.

"Lu Mingfei, have you forgotten that a professor from an American school is here for an interview today? You don't even have to worry about going to college yourself, but you're letting others worry about you? Why don't you quickly change your clothes and get ready to go out?"

"Oh."

The aunt's urging voice kept ringing outside the door, but the boy at the desk did not complain in his heart like "Why should we be so anxious if the emperor is not anxious?" and other nonsense. He just replied lightly without getting angry.

He closed the notebook gently, as if afraid of accidentally crushing the precious name in the book.

"I'm not nagging you, Auntie. There have been too many cases of scams using the names of prestigious universities lately, not to mention this Kassel College, which I've never even heard of. Yesterday, I asked your uncle to check the school's official website for information, and guess what?"

"When I clicked on it, all I saw were junk ads like 'Sexy dealer, online card dealing' and 'If you're a brother, come and chop me up!'"

"This probably has nothing to do with the school. Maybe my uncle's computer is infected with a virus." Lu Mingfei replied helplessly.

Besides his uncle, the only other people who usually used his nearly obsolete HP laptop were his cousin, Lu Mingze. But whenever Lu Mingze used the computer, he would hide in his room and lock the door, claiming he wanted to focus on studying without being disturbed. But when Lu Mingfei opened his browsing history afterwards, it was all full of strange VPNs, so it was obvious where the computer virus came from.

"Anyway, don't just tell others what you're asked, and don't spill all your family information to outsiders. You have to know that even the saying that Chinese people don't lie to Chinese people can't be fully believed. Those fake foreign professors are very cunning. If you're not careful, you might get scammed out of your pants. Mingfei, you don't have many pants to begin with..."

Once my aunt starts nagging, I never know when she will stop. This is something that the whole family is helpless about but is used to. However, Lu Mingfei still can't help but think: If the physics world ever breaks through the sophon barrier and develops the first perpetual motion machine, it will most likely be my aunt's mouth!

"Ming Fei, are you listening, Ming Fei!"

"I'm listening."

In fact, Lu Mingfei was not listening at all, because he knew that Kassel Academy really existed.

From the day when Lu Mingfei just entered high school, he would have the same dream every night. In the dream, he would sit on the windowsill covered with green ivy and read a story called "Dragon Clan". Coincidentally, there was also a loser named Lu Mingfei in the story.

Not only Lu Mingfei, but also many characters who appeared in Lu Mingfei's life appeared in the book: Lu Mingze (fat otaku version), Chen Wenwen, Chu Zihang... There are also many names he has never seen or heard of: Fingel, Caesar... Eiry. The whole story came to an abrupt end when he read about the helpless death of the girl named Eiry.

In fact, Lu Mingfei didn't think the story in his dream was anything special at first. After all, the existence of the Four Great Kings and the Eight Clans of Sheqi sounded too fantastical and had nothing to do with the world he lived in.

Moreover, the story of that loser looks like the autobiography of a bootlicker written by some old thief who is suffering from literary youth disease.

Can you believe that?!

It's like one day you meet a blind stranger on the road, and the blind man says, "Hey, do you believe in light? I see that you are a man of extraordinary talent and you will be a genius who saves the world from catastrophe in the future." Then he stuffs a magic wand into your hand.

How do you know if that magic wand is the little gift that comes with the Ultraman Tiga figurine at the boutique? Are you really imagining that one day a Gatanjea will appear in the world and you'll transform into a giant of light and save the world with a miraculous reappearance?

If Lu Mingfei were just in middle school, he would have thought slaying a dragon was such a cool and great feat he simply had to take part. After all, what if Earth's rotation slowed down a few seconds without an S-class Lu Mingfei? Wouldn't a day be 25 hours long? Wouldn't the gravitational pull difference between the Earth and the Moon increase, triggering tidal waves, global warming, melting Arctic ice, and ultimately, sky-blackening tsunamis that would inundate cities and usher in the end of the world? How outrageous!

But Lu Mingfei was already a mature high school student at that time. Of course he believed that Jotaro Kujo possessed the Heart of Platinum, Luffy's body could stretch and shrink at will, and Yusuke Urameshi could come back to life. Lu Mingfei was willing to believe and firmly believed that these must exist!

It just won’t happen in Lu Mingfei’s world.

Until Lu Mingfei accidentally met his senior brother Chu Zihang, who existed in both the dream world and the real world, after school one day.

On that pouring rainy evening, Chu Zihang, who topped the "This Beast Should Be Killed" list at Shilan Middle School and was even more popular than the principal, refused to join anyone. After all his classmates left the school with umbrellas, he was left alone, watching the rain darken the world. The sorrow in his eyes was as thick as a mighty tide, seemingly capable of drowning the entire world.

Lu Mingfei was stunned for a moment, because he didn't understand. Why did Chu Zihang, who in his eyes was already like a distant celebrity, look even more helpless and lonely than him, unless...

Lu Mingfei chased after Chu Zihang until he was about to disappear in the rainy night.

"Brother!"

"Lu Mingfei?"

"Yes, Senior Brother actually still remembers me."

"Well, what's the matter?"

"Brother, are you alone after school? Where are your... parents?"

Chu Zihang looked at Lu Mingfei strangely. Many people cared about his appearance, grades, and hobbies every day, but no one had ever asked him something like, "Why are you alone after school? Where are your parents?"

However, Chu Zihang was instantly relieved because the person who asked this question was Lu Mingfei, the only guy in the school who left later than him whenever it rained.

"They are divorced." Chu Zihang said.

"I remember meeting my senior brother's father before. It was also a rainy day. He was driving a very luxurious car. My senior brother even asked me if I wanted to get in with him." Lu Mingfei said softly, staring into Chu Zihang's eyes.

"Well... there was a car accident on the elevated road that day. My father disappeared and I was the only one who walked out." Chu Zihang's eyes were closed and silent, as if he was hiding a sad and unspeakable eulogy.

"I have a saxophone lesson to catch up on, so be careful on your way home alone."

Chu Zihang thought Lu Mingfei missed his parents, but he was not good at comforting people, so he could only pat the other person's shoulder to show his comfort.

It was a long time after Chu Zihang left that Lu Mingfei stayed there as if he had been cast under a spell. He didn't know how long he had been there. The story in his dream kept flashing back in his mind like a clip from an old movie.

The heavy rain poured down on him like nails piercing his bones and skin, causing him pain all over and excruciating pain in his heart.

"Eri, Eri, Eri..."

After Lu Mingfei came to his senses, he ran home like crazy, muttering the name. He didn't even have time to take a shower and just wanted to fall asleep as soon as possible.

But Lu Mingfei discovered in despair that from the day his dreams and reality overlapped, he lost the ability to dream.

"How could it be...why can't I dream anymore..."

Lightning split the clouds, and thunder roared everywhere. Lu Mingfei felt as if struck by a heavy thunderbolt, completely losing his soul. Tears slipped out of his eyes without a word, and the boy went from silent tears at first, to soft sobs, and finally to full-throated sobs.

Lu Mingfei cried all night.

Outside the window, there was a rainstorm that seemed to be drowning the whole world, and inside the room, a boy was crying bitterly under the quilt.

The tears, which were more ferocious than a rainstorm, finally and completely washed away Lu Mingfei's stagnant life and wiped out the cowardice hidden in his bones.

It was as if someone had taken a bloody boning knife and slashed open Lu Mingfei's skin, revealing the heart within, etched with childishness and dejection. The person simply pulled out his heart, handed it to Lu Mingfei for a glance, then smirked and silently stuffed it back in. The other person remained silent, but Lu Mingfei could clearly hear the disappointment and sarcasm in that scornful laugh.

The one whose heart is being cut open is the present him, the one holding the knife is himself who failed to save the girl, and the sharpest knife in the world is called "regret" and "remorse".

Of the three thousand swords in the world, regret is the most deadly.

From that day on, Lu Mingfei changed.

He gradually put down his mouse and keyboard, left Warcraft and StarCraft; turned around and picked up a bamboo sword and books, and wandered around the kendo hall and library.

It was also from that day that Lu Mingfei knew that there really was a place called "Cassell Academy" in the world, where psychopaths and monsters gathered; he also knew that there was a girl destined for him on the other side of distant Japan, waiting for him to save her.

Lu Mingfei no longer dreams, but the story that appeared in his dream had too many details and was too complicated, so Lu Mingfei developed the habit of writing down some people he was going to meet and important things in his notebook every day. He didn't want to forget and he didn't dare to forget.

"It's time to go out, Mingfei."

His aunt's call pulled Lu Mingfei back to reality from his memories.

Lu Mingfei put on a suit borrowed from his uncle that was not expensive and even looked a bit cheap. He combed his hair into an adult style. The boy in the mirror looked quite reliable and steady. When he opened the door, the boy seemed to whisper to himself and to the distant other side thousands of miles away:

"It's not far, Eri. We have a long way to go, but please wait for me to find you!"

"must!"

Lu Mingfei, an ordinary boy living in a small coastal town in the south, had never even seen a helicopter or an express train. However, three years ago, Lu Mingfei stopped yearning for or secretly feeling depressed about such things. He knew long ago that his life would be a journey crisscrossed by thorns.

He was destined to be extraordinary!

The new book is launched with all kinds of requests, please don't let the book die!!! You will see a completely different Lu Mingfei here, guarding the best Eri in the world

Chapter 2 Youth Story

Nine o'clock in the morning, Regent Hotel.

This five-star hotel is the most luxurious in this southern coastal town, bar none. Even a night in its second-tier executive suite costs at least four figures. Locals consider it as prestigious as a Rolex to watches or a Rolls-Royce to cars, a true hotel of luxury.

The fact that this was chosen as the interview venue was a testament to Kassel College's financial strength. However, if one of Kassel College's student union presidents had spoken in the same way, he would have probably frowned and sneered, saying, "Is this the most luxurious hotel in Chu Zihang's hometown? How disappointing! Have we arrived at a cave where cavemen lived?"

Then the student union president will most likely buy the entire Regent Hotel without blinking an eye, and then a large number of people will pour into the hotel until they tinker with it to the satisfaction of the domineering nobleman.

At the end, the nobleman would most likely smile and say, "It's free all day, it's on me." Then he would enjoy the cheers and applause of the crowd.

After imagining that vivid scene, Lu Mingfei smiled and shook his head. The student union president, whom he had never met, was definitely just as outrageous as before!

Through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows of the hotel that were polished to a shine, Lu Mingfei saw his own reflection in the window. His originally messy bangs were combed back with a little mousse and hairspray, and his body was much stronger than when he just entered high school three years ago. Although he was not yet to the point of being burly, he was not weak either.

The most important thing is his temperament. Even though he is wearing a fake Loro Piana high-end imitation suit that his uncle secretly bought from a friend without his aunt's knowledge, Lu Mingfei does not look embarrassed at all like a child who secretly wears adult clothes.

"Excuse me, are you here for an interview at Kassel College?" The waiter standing opposite the French window asked with a smile as he opened the main door for Lu Mingfei.

"Yes, I am." Lu Mingfei responded with a grin.

"Then please let our person in charge take you to the executive floor." The beautiful sister in a suit, black stockings and ten-centimeter high heels led Lu Mingfei very considerately and served him with a smile throughout the whole process.

"Lu Mingfei!" Su Xiaoqiang, who was sitting outside the executive conference room on the eighth floor, waved high at Lu Mingfei and cheered, as if to show off that she was the first person in the crowd to spot Lu Mingfei.

"Good morning, Su Xiaoqiang." Lu Mingfei responded with a smile.

Su Xiaoqiang was the most proud and fiery girl in her class, nicknamed "Little Goddess," but she had every reason to be so proud. It was said that Su Xiaoqiang's family was in the coal business, and on her first day of school, she jumped out of a Mercedes-Benz S-Class wearing a DKNY dress, a brand most of her classmates had never even heard of. The sun shone on her raised, fair neck, and the girl was as proud as a pure white swan.

However, Lu Mingfei did not dislike Su Xiaoqiang, or it could be said that there was almost no one in his class who disliked her. On the contrary, there were even quite a few toads with ulterior motives who dreamed of being able to have sex with her one day, so they willingly became fans of this white swan.

However, Su Xiaoqiang's lively personality makes it easy for most boys in the class to become good friends with him as time goes by. In fact, most of the boys' innocent feelings in high school start with a quiet girl, like Shen Jiayi in "Those Years".

Chen Wenwen is recognized as Shen Jiayi in the class. She is the epitome of quietness and purity. There are many boys who think they can become Ko Ching-teng and they are very attentive to him, but Chen Wenwen doesn't like any of them.

As luck would have it, the only empty seat among the 17 seats reserved for Lu Mingfei was to the right of Chen Wenwen, and to the right of that was Zhao Menghua.

There is no need to say much about Zhao Menghua. He is recognized as one of the only two people in Shilan Middle School who can be called "the second Chu Zihang". Zhao Menghua must occupy a place, and he is also happy to be proud of it.

But the other person who received this honor obviously didn't take it to heart, which made Zhao Menghua extremely jealous when they met. After all, he was destined to be inferior to Chu Zihang. If even the title of "the second Chu Zihang" was taken away by someone else, wouldn't it mean that he, Zhao Menghua, was not even as good as half of Chu Zihang?

If it came down to family background, Zhao Menghua was confident that he could beat the boy who couldn't even afford a decent suit so badly that he wouldn't even be able to see his taillights.

However, what Shilan Middle School has the most is elites from wealthy families, but compared with that person in other aspects besides family background, Zhao Menghua admits that he is indeed a little scared.

No one knows what's wrong with that guy. Before high school, he was a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water. But once he entered high school, he seemed to have contracted an infectious disease called "Chu Zihang Syndrome". Not only did he go to the library whenever he had nothing to do, but his academic performance skyrocketed like a rocket. Every day, he would stay at the city's Children's Palace until it closed. He almost took a set of bedding and moved in directly!

As a result, Zhao Menghua's spiritual level was completely defeated by that person!

At this moment, there was Chen Wenwen between that person and Zhao Menghua.

"Good morning, Lu Mingfei." Chen Wenwen's voice was as small as a mosquito's buzz. She didn't dare turn her head to look directly at Lu Mingfei's face.

"Well, good morning." Lu Mingfei took the croissant and hot milk served by the waiter without looking away.
