Dragon Raja: Lu Mingfei, Starting as a Seeker of the Law

Chapter 1 I Obtained Thunder

"Oh my god, why did I dream about being struck by lightning again?"

The boy suddenly jumped out of bed, glanced at the dark room, and finding nothing unusual, reluctantly closed his eyes and went back to sleep.

In a desolate wasteland, the once lush weeds have been reduced to charred embers.

Beside the largest pile of ashes, a man in white robes descended from the sky, lost in thought.

..........

"Therefore, from this theorem, we can obtain...!"

Lu Mingfei stood in the corridor, listening to the lecture coming from inside the door, staring blankly at the trees outside the fence.

Those were sycamore trees, common in this area, and the school liked to plant them. The sycamore leaves had all fallen this season, and the bare branches, deprived of their shelter, shattered the fading sunlight, casting fragments at his feet.

He just stared blankly at the branch.

Of course, it wasn't that he had suddenly awakened some literary talent and wanted to indulge in sentimentalism; he was simply feeling somewhat...melancholy looking at the scene before him.

His melancholy wasn't because he was sent to stand guard in the corridor by his homeroom teacher for daydreaming in class.

Standing as punishment was so common for him that it didn't bother him at all; what bothered him was something else entirely.

"Dora~~~"

The echoing school bell from the loudspeaker pulled Lu Mingfei back into the corridor. As the bell rang, the half-closed classroom door next to him was pushed open.

An 'egg' with white whiskers on both sides emerged from it, and Lu Mingfei shrank back immediately.

That was his math teacher!

The math teacher glanced up and down at Lu Mingfei, who was shivering, and slowly began to speak:

"You're quite smug, aren't you? I sent you out to reflect on your actions, and what are you doing now? Don't you know where your grades stand?"

"Your grades are worse than when you were in the first year of high school! Your grades are bad and you don't pay attention in class. I remember you weren't like this before."

He sighed deeply, his tone stern, "If I find you daydreaming in my classes again, I'll make you stand there for the entire afternoon!"

Seeing that Lu Mingfei didn't react, the old man pursed his lips and shrank back.

"Come in."

Lu Mingfei shrank back, said nothing, and slowly moved his feet, following them into the classroom.

As soon as he stepped into the classroom, all eyes in the class shot towards Lu Mingfei like arrows. Accustomed to being invisible, he quickly walked to his seat and sat down.

"Oh, our VIP is back? How's it going, the view down the hallway?"

The one speaking was his deskmate, Su Xiaoqiang, dressed in head-to-toe DKNY, beautiful and elegant, and also the most attractive girl in their entire class.

"I can't believe you dared to stand there like a dazed man right under the nose of 'Bright Summit'. Didn't you see how dark his face was when he called you three times and you didn't respond?"

"So I was punished." Lu Mingfei sighed, slumped over the table. Fortunately, he was already used to this kind of punishment and didn't react much.

"If it weren't for the dreams I've been having lately... I wouldn't have..."

Muttering to himself, Lu Mingfei, who was lying on the table, unconsciously began to glance in one direction, at the seat where a girl was sitting.

The girl had long, soft, straight hair and was wearing a white cotton dress. She was looking at the blackboard and showed no sign of turning around.

"What dream? Feeding?"

"Hey! Are you... staring blankly at Chen Wenwen again?" Seeing that the boy didn't reply, Su Xiaoqiang immediately followed Lu Mingfei's gaze and saw the girl.

"Is that guy really that charming? Humph!" The girl's eyes turned cold instantly, and she stepped on the boy's shoe.

"Little Fairy, what are you doing!" Lu Mingfei snapped out of his daze and withdrew his gaze from behind Chen Wenwen.

He was still wondering if Chen Wenwen would turn around and look at him, which would mean that she cared about him.

Unfortunately, the girl never turned back.

"I don't know what's so attractive about her, but you're completely bewitched by her." Su Xiaoqiang snorted coldly, clearly disapproving of Lu Mingfei's behavior.

Lu Mingfei shifted his feet, then looked at Chen Wenwen's long hair again, and said in a low voice, "I just think she's pretty, what's wrong with that?"

Su Xiaoqiang didn't say anything more, then kicked Lu Mingfei's shoe again and turned her head away.

Lu Mingfei didn't care, since the other party wasn't very strong, and he had even gotten used to it over the past two years.

After all, it's been like this for the past two years.

Lu Mingfei is a very frank person. He just thought Chen Wenwen was pretty, so he said that. But as a result, he and the "little fairy" had a falling out from the start of the semester. Coincidentally, she also became his deskmate.

"As everyone knows, school is about to end for the holidays, but considering your grades and the fact that you are in your senior year of high school, which is a crucial time!" 'Bright Peak' pulled out a registration form from the podium.

"It's on a voluntary basis! Our school will be organizing a two-week remedial program for senior students. Students who don't have anything important to do, please register on the form."

"ah........."

"I also have piano lessons during the holidays!"

"Not yet. My family even hired a professional athlete to come to our house and be my basketball coach."

Upon hearing this, the students in the class couldn't help but let out a long sigh, clearly expressing their dissatisfaction with the tutoring program.

Lu Mingfei scratched his head. He didn't have any objections to tutoring... Suddenly, he seemed to realize something, and his whole body perked up.

Soon, the registration form was passed to his desk. Lu Mingfei quickly looked at the form, skipping over name after name, until he saw Chen Wenwen's name and stopped, his heart leaping into his throat.

[Chen Wenwen: Accepting Tutoring]

It was like a firework suddenly shooting out from the ground in the calm and quiet night, and in the blink of an eye, the flower bloomed.

The name, like a flower blooming in that instant, caught the boy's eye, and Lu Mingfei felt a surge of joy.

He had been thinking that it might be a long time before he could see Chen Wenwen again. Unexpectedly, joy came his way! He pursed his lips, trying not to let his smile reveal his happiness.

[I agree to tutoring!]

"So you've been watching for so long just to see if she signed it?"

As soon as Lu Mingfei finished signing, Su Xiaoqiang snatched the registration form from his hand, which the boy looked at from left to right as if it were a "good news".

"That's enough, is this all you get for tutoring with her?" The girl signed her name and gave Lu Mingfei a cold look.

She knew this kid all too well, no, or rather, this kid was too easy to understand. Her joy was palpable even without knowing him well; anything related to Chen Wenwen could lead this fool on.

"What do you know!" Lu Mingfei retorted.

This is a tutoring session together!!

The important thing isn't tutoring, but being with Chen Wenwen!

Thinking of this, Lu Mingfei felt overjoyed. If he were outside instead of in the classroom, he would probably jump for joy!

Lu Mingfei clenched his fists and watched Chen Wenwen's back. At that moment, as the girl began to talk to her deskmate, her profile came into Lu Mingfei's view, reminding him of a passage from the book "The Lover" that he had followed the girl to check.

"I met you, I remember you, you were born to be the soulmate of mine."

................

"Click"

As the key went into the lock, Lu Mingfei returned to his aunt's house. No one was home. At this time, his uncle was probably still at get off work, his aunt was most likely playing mahjong, and as for his cousin Lu Mingze... he was probably out with his younger brother.

Rather than saying it's a habit, it's more accurate to say that this quiet environment suits Lu Mingfei perfectly.

"Since they're all gone, this seems like my chance!"

Lu Mingfei had anticipated this situation and had even bought a bag of instant noodles to satisfy his hunger. With his aunt and cousin not around, it meant he could have the computer all to himself!

A whole afternoon!

This was his happiest moment!

After pressing the power button, the boy skillfully turned around to boil water and prepare to cook instant noodles. He watched the loading screen with its "blue sky and white clouds" display until he had finished half a bucket of noodles before it slowly changed.

Lu Mingfei was already used to the computer's performance.

I skillfully opened the desktop, logged into QQ, and swiped through the message bar to check if there was a red dot on the girl's profile picture wearing a baseball cap... Not only was there no red dot, but the profile picture was also gray.

After some hesitation, Lu Mingfei decided not to open the chat box.

We'll see each other again tomorrow anyway, so let's ask in person tomorrow.

"Beep beep!"

A QQ notification sound rang, and Lu Mingfei opened the game group he often lurked in. A panda-faced user was tagging him, saying, "Let's duel! Today I'll show you what a Zerg nemesis really is!"

Lu Mingfei immediately got excited.

"Come on! You'd better show me what you've got."

Rubbing his hands together, Lu Mingfei put on his headphones, opened the StarCraft interface, and declared with an air of arrogance, "Let me test your skills!"

.............

"Get some sleep! Mingze has class tomorrow!"

As his aunt's voice rang out, the computer shut down, and Lu Mingfei lay on the bed staring at the ceiling after the lights were turned off.

Some people have difficulty falling asleep.

It wasn't that he wasn't sleepy, but for some reason, lately his dreams were all about being struck by lightning.

Yes, that's right. He would be struck by lightning if he closed his eyes, but Lu Mingfei woke up without feeling any pain.

It all feels like a dream, but can a dream be this real?

"Heh~~Heh~~Heh"

Lu Mingze, who got out of bed, didn't have so many worries. His snoring started like a lullaby, and each snore seemed to urge him to get his eyelids heavy until his eyes closed.

It's just a dream anyway, so just bear with it and it'll pass, right?

Just as Lu Mingfei, still half-asleep, was thinking about relaxing completely, he heard the crackling of thunder again.

"Here we go again. How many more times do I have to have this dream?"

Lu Mingfei didn't open his eyes. Based on his experience, whether he opened his eyes or not, he wouldn't be able to hear anything in the next second anyway.

But the crackling sound continued, and then a male voice rang out.

"Such a powerful causal punishment, actually targeting a mortal? Let this immortal lord see who you are!"

The powerful causal lightning, weakened by a magic talisman, struck the boy with his eyes closed. The boy, who had been drowsy, jumped up. The intense pain made Lu Mingfei open his eyes abruptly, and a scream echoed across the land.

"Aaaaaaaahhhhh!"
