Anime: Blue-Eyes Baby Dragon, picked up by the Knight King

Chapter 181: Dragon King's Meal

I'm done with dinner.

Everyone left in a hurry without even saying goodbye.

Lu Mingfei found this a bit baffling.

A group of old men flew all the way from the United States by helicopter just to eat a KFC in this remote second-tier city?

"Why? It's a little different from what you imagined, sitting in an auditorium and having a big talk?"

As if she saw his doubt.

Finkel, the only one left here, who seemed to have been "abandoned" by those old men, patted him on the shoulder.

“But that’s normal.”

"——You wouldn't have thought that those decisions that could destroy the world were all made by these old men while eating hamburgers and smoking cigars."

"As for the auditorium, the board of directors, and the voting process... they're just for show."

Finkel complained in an unhappy tone.

He seems to have a "familiar" quality, and can quickly get close to anyone and start a conversation.

——But Lu Mingfei thought this was not bad.

At least, he definitely didn't hate this man.

"Junior, do you have money? Lend me some to go online..."

Finkel rubbed his hands like a fly.

——Lu Mingfei took back his previous words.

Adults borrowing money from junior high school students for internet access...it's terrible.

……

in the afternoon.

In order to welcome the new school directors, Shilan Middle School temporarily closed for half a day.

Such a policy not only benefits middle school students like Lu Mingfei who have connections to go to illegal Internet cafes, but also benefits "ordinary" teachers like Vina.

——Teachers actually want a holiday more than students.

Moreover, in essence, this woman named [Vina] is not a very hardworking woman - her "lazy" nature is inherited from Shirataki's bloodline. There is definitely no problem if you ask her to fight and kill in the world, but if you ask her to earn money honestly... it would be like draining all her energy and torturing her to death.

"Please sit wherever you like."

"Eat whatever's in the fridge. I won't treat you."

Back in the temporary rented apartment, Vina collapsed directly on the sofa as if she was about to melt.

This was the haggard look she hadn't shown even after wandering the outside world for nearly a hundred years - but after just one week as a junior high school English teacher, she looked as if she had lost all desire to live.

Shirataki looked around the apartment.

The house had two bedrooms and a living room, with a usable area of ​​approximately 70 square meters. The furniture was simple, but the kitchen refrigerator was filled with seasonal vegetables—as far as Shirataki knew, Vina didn't cook.

"It was prepared by the little girl named Xia Mi."

"Her cooking skills are quite good. I eat with her every day—"

Vina replied in a matter-of-fact tone.

Shirataki felt ashamed of her.

They are both thousand-year-old old guys pretending to be young - but look at Jörmungandr.

She really treated herself as a first-grade junior high school girl, working and going to school at the same time, and still being so energetic.

"Tsk, don't look at her like that, she's just pretending."

"She doesn't want to work."

"Her goal is just the leftover fried chicken and French fries from KFC every day."

Vina solved the mystery.

On the outskirts of this city, deep in the mountains where few people go, Shami, or Jörmungandr, the Lord of the Earth and Mountains, built a territory of his own and hid something in it.

【Fenrir】.

The twin sons of the Earth King and the Mountain King, and Xia Mi's older brother—but due to a seemingly traumatic brain injury, his IQ isn't very high. He always calls Xia Mi "Sister."

He likes French fries and fried chicken.

However, as Shirataki knew, the daily expenses of supporting a Dragon King were too high - it was an astronomical figure, enough to bankrupt a country.

There was no other choice, so Xia Mi could only go to work at a KFC and pack up the French fries, fried chicken and other foods that no one ate at night.

As for Vina and Xia Mi, they also met in the suburbs.

“No fight, no acquaintance.”

As for who won and who lost in that battle...

"I'm back~~~"

"Guess what good stuff I brought back?"

"Ding ding ding—discounted duck necks! The boss even gave me an extra one!"

Excited cheers were heard along with the sound of keys turning...

Look at this girl in front of you who is always full of energy and seems to have endless spirit and strength.

Shirataki suspected that Vina had used a skill like [Personality Correction Fist] on her.

Otherwise, how could a dignified Dragon King endure humiliation like this... Was her nickname during the Warring States Period Goujian?

……

An ordinary evening.

There was a young man who had just saved the world, and he spent the whole night passionately having sex in a black Internet cafe with a senior whom he had just met.

There were old men who came from the United States, strolling on the beach of this coastal town, admiring the scenery that had just been ravaged by the typhoon.

And the girl, in that slightly cramped kitchen, prepared a simple but truly heartfelt meal for the "god" who had come from afar.

White rice, stir-fried cabbage, sliced ​​duck neck, and a small bowl of tomato and egg soup.

——Her almost flattering look easily reminds people of this proverb.

"To show hospitality for nothing is to be either an adulterer or a thief."

Shirataki said with a smile.

His words were unpleasant to hear, but there was absolutely no sarcasm in them.

Moreover, he also showed his true attitude through his actions.

——He treated the simple meal in front of him very seriously and finished it all.

“Food is very important and should not be wasted.”

"Also, never talk about things while you're eating—that's disrespectful to the food."

This was a sentence that Altria often said to him when he was a child. Even now, he still remembers such words firmly in his mind.

And now, the meal is over.

In other words, the "offering" has been enjoyed.

"Wait a moment."

"Don't be impatient yet."

Seeing Xia Mi's hesitant look, Bai Long extended his hand and motioned her to wait a moment.

——He had a better idea and wanted her to hear it first.

"shrimp?"

"Jianghu Giant Ranking Battle?"

"What is that?"

Chapter 182: Humans have let it go, but hybrids haven’t

It was a movie that became popular throughout the East Asian market in the early 21st century.

At the same time, it is like a Pandora's box, opening the evil of street violence.

"Young and Dangerous".

Xia Mi has also seen this movie.

But she watched it when she was a ticket seller in the cinema - she didn't remember what was in the movie, she only remembered that the popcorn in the cinema was delicious, it tasted like chocolate.

"Jianghu Giant Ranking Battle?"

"Is that thing in the movie?"

Xia Mi asked curiously.

Shirataki shook his head.

That's a plot from the Young and Dangerous comics and has nothing to do with the movie.

However, it doesn't matter if you don't know. Here, Shirataki is just borrowing its "name".

"Wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes."

“Where there is a world of martial arts, there is order.”

"But I don't like the order of this underworld."

Shirataki shook his head, expressing his dislike for this world.

In his eyes, the magicians in the Type-Moon world were already "crazy" enough - but the dragon slayers in this world were a hundred times more crazy than those magicians.

"16 Of course, it's not their fault."

"They have been resisting the dragons for so long that they have forgotten why they possessed this power in the first place and the significance of this power."

"And more importantly... they also have a leader who has lost his mind in his pursuit of dragon slaying."

This is the scariest thing.

No matter how inhumane the magicians of the Type-Moon world were, they were still under the thumb of a true [Magic Marshal]—that Jewel Master might not be considered an excellent "leader," but he was definitely a qualified spiritual leader.

The Jewel Master used his existence to tell those magicians that this path was no longer meaningful and that they should try some new methods.

(The five major magics are unique).

However, the old man Ange tried to instill the idea that "fighting the dragon clan is your only mission" into the subsequent dragon slayers - he instilled his hatred into the next generation.

"But this isn't 1894 anymore, when steam trains were clanking away."

"It's already 2005, when telephones are commonplace!"

This is a period of one hundred years.

Even from a human perspective, this hundred years is not a long time, it is only the time of three generations.

But it was during this hundred years that human civilization achieved a qualitative leap.

From steam to electricity - humans in the new era have completely abandoned their old image and truly become the masters of this land.

But what about the dragon slayers?

Be it for "dreams", for "revenge", or for "benefits"... in short, they cling tightly to the banner of "Dragon Slaying".

"So, you want them to give up their hatred for dragons?"

Xia Mi looked into Bai Taki's eyes and asked.
