Chapter 100: I Didn’t Expect You to Be This Kind of Dragon
Xia Li bought a small silver necklace online and put the gold coin inside.
This kind of small necklace has a box specially designed to hold photos. Ordinary people buy it to hold photos of their daughters, wives, and so on, but Xia Li slightly modified it and hung it around Lucia’s neck.
Lucia liked it very much.
She already liked this kind of glittering thing, and since it was made by Xia Li himself, she wore it on her chest every day and was reluctant to take it off.
The gold coin was much clearer than the one she had sold before. If its history could be traced on Earth, it would be a rare and expensive cultural relic.
Unfortunately, Azure Continent was fictional on Earth, and the value of this gold coin was rely its weight in gold.
Sitting in front of the computer, Xia Li wrote furiously, typing on the keyboard.
As the word count of the serialized “Record of Experiences from Azure Continent” increased, the inco in the background also beca more and more considerable.
The daily manuscript fee had already reached tens of yuan, and it was more than a thousand yuan a month.
This data was only the initial data, and it should be more in the future.
However, Xia Li ultimately only regarded this matter as a part-ti job.
Now that the one-month period had arrived and Lucia had almost adapted to modern society, Xia Li should do sothing of his own.
Turning the gaming chair under his butt, Xia Li stared at the standby screen saver on the computer screen and thought for a long ti.
To say what he was good at now…
This body, which had been trained in another world for three years, was in pretty good shape.
If other factors were not considered and conditions allowed, he could directly join the army and go to the battlefield.
Maybe being an athlete or sothing would be good…?
But athletes definitely had more professional and systematic training, and training required a lot of ti. Now Xia Li’s mind was all on Lucia. He didn’t want to leave ho too far, and he didn’t want Lucia to wait for him at ho day and night.
Furthermore, Xia Li didn’t want to do things he didn’t want to do.
Otherwise, why wouldn’t he choose to take the civil service exam and lie flat like his classmates? This was the most common path for a college student majoring in Chinese Language and Literature like him.
For Xia Li now, the top priority for a job was freedom of ti, having a lot of ti to spend with his girlfriend, preferably not working overti at night, and being able to go ho on ti every night…
Dream on.
Taking a deep breath, he suddenly felt that his future was dark.
Moving his gaze, Xia Li looked at Lucia, who was standing at the door of his room and peeking in.
“What’s up?” he asked, coming back to his senses.
“Just seeing what you’re doing…”
She had co to check because she had heard the sound of Xia Li typing on the keyboard stop for a long ti.
“The internet says that humans who sit for long periods of ti without exercising are prone to sudden death.”
Lucia retracted her head and muttered.
“Nonsense, your boyfriend is young and vigorous, and in great health.”
Xia Li smiled and patted his thigh, “Have a seat.”
“…”
Lucia didn’t want to sit; she still had to study.
“Pat, pat,” Xia Li patted his thigh again.
Lucia had no choice. For the sake of the Demon Repelling Sword leaning against the corner, she walked over in small steps.
“Want to play a ga? Let’s play Human: Fall Flat. You’ll definitely like the na of this ga.”
Xia Li pulled the little evil dragon into his arms and sat her down, his other hand already moving to the mouse.
“I want to play Brave Hero: Fall Flat,” Lucia thought.
“There’s no such thing as Brave Hero: Fall Flat…”
Xia Li thought to himself that he had long since fallen flat under Lucia’s dragon claws. He casually fooled her, “There’s only Brave Hero: Bow to Parents.”
Lucia didn’t understand what “bow to parents” ant. She looked at Xia Li curiously, who had already started this two-player mini-ga that he had just bought not long ago.
He took the gapad and let Lucia sit in his arms and play with it, while he used the keyboard to operate.
One monitor was split into two sides, left and right. After playing for half an hour, the little evil dragon in Xia Li’s arms turned into a little pufferfish.
It was hard for a noob dragon to find happiness in gas.
Even playing this kind of two-player cooperative mini-ga, she would get discouraged because she couldn’t pass a level for a long ti.
When the air around her face beca more and more puffed up, Xia Li sighed and turned off the ga.
“Do you think I’m stupid?”
Lucia sat on Xia Li’s lap and said dejectedly, looking down.
Compared to when she first ca to Earth, the heartless evil dragon who only knew how to giggle every day, the current evil dragon was much richer in emotions.
At least she had learned to sulk.
“No,” Xia Li said, his voice as gentle as possible.
“I like you, this stupid dragon.”
“…What about other stupid dragons?” Lucia asked, looking up with so concern.
“Other stupid dragons… Other stupid dragons would have been cut down by with one slash.” Xia Li replied.
“…”
After a mont of silence, Lucia used her little brain to think for a while. It seed that this was indeed the case.
Those stupid dragons who couldn’t beat Xia Li had long since fallen under his sword.
She was a pureblood Silver Dragon, resistant to beatings, so she hadn’t been defeated by Xia Li after so many tis.
“I’m going to read.”
Thinking of this, Lucia wanted to get off Xia Li’s lap.
Only by reading more books, studying more, and absorbing more knowledge could Lucia transform from a stupid dragon into a smart dragon, and be able to defeat Xia Li in all aspects.
The little evil dragon had her own great ambitions.
◈◈◈
“Don’t be in a hurry.”
However, Xia Li didn’t want the soft and fragrant little evil dragon to slip away from his arms.
He held Lucia in his arms and said, “I’m writing to a key point in the plot. Tell more about your dragon race’s… habits.”
Xia Li thought of what had just happened.
If he were to go out and find a job, what were his advantages?
Thinking from this perspective, the love-struck Xia Li thought again, as a ‘male’, what were his advantages that could attract Lucia, this female dragon?
Xia Li had always wanted Lucia to like him, the kind of liking between lovers.
Then, from Lucia’s point of view, if he wanted her to like a ‘male’, he first had to figure out what the ideal ‘male’ looked like in her eyes.
Xia Li suddenly realized that his initial thinking was wrong.
He had always been flirting with Lucia from a human perspective.
But he completely ignored the reason why Lucia wasn’t interested at all.
Lucia was a dragon, and dragons had their own way of love.
“What habits do you want to know about?” Lucia looked up at Xia Li.
“When your… male dragons pursue female dragons, what do they usually do? Or, under what circumstances will a female dragon agree to a male’s courtship?”
In order to show that he was only seeking knowledge to improve his writing, Xia Li casually opened the docunt and prepared to start recording.
Lucia paused for a mont, as if searching her inherited mories for this aspect.
Xia Li waited nervously.
Don’t give him so high-difficulty level… He was a human, not a dragon, and things that were too difficult would be hard to handle.
“Generally speaking, first of all, both parties must have the idea of reproduction before there is a possibility of successful pursuit.”
“And then?”
“And then… the male dragon will enclose a larger territory.”
Xia Li listened quietly, typing these words on the keyboard.
He also found a corresponding plan for this goal in his heart.
Buy a house!
“…A mountain of gold coins.”
Savings!
“There’s enough food and water outside the lair.” Lucia recalled.
Stable inco!
Xia Li silently took notes.
Rounding up these conditions…
It seed to be similar to the common requirents of human won for their partners.
Hiss… So realistic, my little dragon.
Xia Li felt bitter in his heart, feeling that he had to put his job search on the agenda.
Moreover, an ordinary job definitely wouldn’t do.
If he really wanted to show his strength in this aspect like a male dragon, the return from a job was still too little.
His major wasn’t as easy to make money as the internet industry.
Perhaps he should abandon the idea of working and start a business…
If nine out of ten startups failed, and the probability of success was less than 1%, then the possibility of getting rich by working was 0%.
As he was making plans in his heart, Lucia, who was sitting on Xia Li’s lap, continued.
“These are the normal courtship conditions for dragons. The better these conditions are, the higher the possibility of a female dragon and a male dragon pairing up.”
“However…”
Lucia paused and said with a serious little face, “I like another kind.”
“Oh?” Xia Li beca interested, “Tell more.”
“The kind that can breathe a lot of fire at once.”
Xia Li: “…”
“Change your preference.” Xia Li requested.
He had just said it casually, and Xia Li was estimating how long he could last if he used fire magic back in Azure Continent.
But Lucia actually changed it for him.
“Then change it to, the kind that can slay dragons.”
Lucia seed to be really thinking about her preferences, and even a figure appeared in her mind.
“I think dragon slayers are cooler and more secure.”
“Go on…”
Xia Li rubbed his nose. He was good at this.
As the figure beca more and more concrete, a scene appeared in Lucia’s mind: Xia Li holding the Demon Repelling Sword in one hand, an oversized sheep plush toy in the other, and breathing fire into the sky.
She thought this scene was good, so she began to describe it:
“Slaying dragons while breathing fire, and catching sheep for to eat at the sa ti.”
“…”
Today I learned that this book didn’t lose the promotion battle, but the rules changed. It was originally going to be promoted, but because it was released four hours early, it was canceled…
Now for a long ti, the evil dragon won’t have any recomnded exposure. I, the Cat Repairer, am already heartbroken. （Lying on the ground, dead.）
