Late at night, only the faint rustling of tree shadows outside the window lingered in the dorm room, and the moonlight, like a thin veil, gently draped over Lin Xing.
His breathing gradually grew steady, and the even sound of his snoring spread through the silence, carrying the unique ease of youth.
Lumiya quietly opened her golden, vertical pupils.
She tilted her head, studying the boy’s profile just inches away.
His nose was straight, his jawline still tinged with youthful inexperience, and his eyelashes, long and thick, trembled gently with each breath.
This guy is actually a little handsome, maybe just a notch below what I looked like before my transmigration~
But when Lumiya’s gaze fell on the faint crease between Lin Xing’s brows, something in her heart was suddenly scratched by a tiny paw, leaving her inexplicably stifled.
He was still fretting over her transformation before he fell asleep.
He wants to see her change form that badly?
Strange as it was, ever since this boy summoned her, Lumiya always felt an unexplainable sense of familiarity about him,
Like…
Like they were siblings? The thought had barely surfaced when Lumiya shuddered, quickly flicking her tail to chase away that absurd idea.
No way! She was a dragon who had lived for thousands of years—Lin Xing, even if he wanted to call her ‘Mom’ in a fit of silliness, wasn’t qualified enough!
Wait! Suddenly, Lumiya thought of something.
Her golden vertical pupils shrank sharply, the usual lazy half-lidded look instantly replaced, and within the depths of her eyes, faint shards of colored light began to shimmer.
She leaned in even closer, her spiritual power weaving silently like a fine net, entwining itself around the boy’s soul.
The next second, Lumiya’s Dragon Horn almost dropped from shock.
It can’t be! He’s a hometown fellow!
Deep within Lin Xing’s soul, on the “Soul Puzzle Code” only she could see, there was a small fragment identical to hers, marked with the very aura of the Blue Little Broken Sphere!
The so-called “Soul Puzzle Code” was something Lumiya acquired back when she gained the power to shatter the World Barrier and freely cross into other worlds,
After traveling and observing countless worlds, she merged her powers,
And for Lumiya, as long as she willed it,
In her eyes, all souls were like puzzles composed of countless code pieces carrying information—she could flip through and even modify them like reading a book.
Back then, she’d developed this ability to drift among countless worlds, searching for a world whose soul code was similar to hers—a world inhabited by humans.
But perhaps because Lumiya’s power had grown too strong after countless integrations, her “rank” was too high.
Under the suppression and resistance of the Cosmic Will, Lumiya could never discover a world with humans.
Those worlds with humans all played hide-and-seek with her, even the Blue Little Broken Sphere barred her from entry,
The worlds wouldn’t proactively reveal themselves to Lumiya, and due to the suppression of the Cosmic Will,
She couldn’t receive the “cause” of the existence of a human-inhabited world.
And so, she could never obtain the “result” of finding such a world.
Fortunately, Lumiya wasn’t obsessed with her homeland. Having grown up in the Orphanage, wherever there was good food and fun, that was home.
Her days, aside from occasionally feeling a little lonely, were just fine.
So, in that case,
This guy is actually…?
Did the Cosmic Will send me a ‘fellow countryman’ to keep me from going mad with boredom?
Not just that—since Lumiya had already found this “cause,” Lin Xing’s previous life naturally lay within reach.
? Lumiya was puzzled and shocked—no way, did he really sponsor her in the past?
And the Blue Little Broken Sphere specifically tossed him into this Beast-Taming World to sever its own “cause.”
“So troublesome.”
Lumiya muttered softly, yet her tail subconsciously swept a joyful arc across the bedsheet, leaving behind a faint golden shimmer.
She suddenly lost her urge to tease.
She quietly slipped out from Lin Xing’s arms, her movements light as a feather, and hopped onto the center of the desk.
A gentle golden light instantly enveloped her, lacking the previous blinding “charging up” glare, and none of the feigned weakness or sluggishness—pure, gentle light spread like warm water.
The glow was as gentle as the first ray of sunrise at dawn, and within that pillar of light, Lumiya’s form slowly elongated.
Furry little dragon claws turned into slender fingers, the scaled back stretched into a girl’s waistline, and the golden scales receded,
Replaced by waterfall-like long hair and snow-white skin,
Her skin still carrying the unique, fine luster of dragon scales.
The tiny Dragon Horn on her forehead was exquisitely delicate, radiating a gentle golden glow.
Another flash of light—
A loose nightdress appeared on Lumiya, outlining the soft curves unique to a young girl.
Scales dotted the hem, sparkling under the moonlight like scattered diamonds.
When the glow faded, Lumiya lowered her head and rotated her wrist, gazing at her fair, slender hand.
She reached up and touched her Dragon Horn, unable to suppress a satisfied, proud smile.
This dragon’s human form really is perfect.
But after staring at the small mirror on the desk for a couple of seconds, she frowned.
With a thought, golden light flashed around her once again, and her form quietly shrank.
She became a little loli.
Facing the mirror, she shook her head—the tiny Dragon Horn swayed gently with her movements, and the tip of her tail curled up playfully.
This size really is more convenient for pretending to be a cute newbie and tricking Lin Xing.
That young girl’s form just now was too conspicuous—she didn’t want some guy calling her his wife.
She tiptoed over, like a kitten sneaking a taste, cautiously approaching the bed and crouching down to study Lin Xing again.
The sleeping boy’s face still held a hint of innocence, his eyelashes casting a faint shadow beneath his eyelids, looking harmless and soft.
Lumiya stretched out her index finger, gently poked his cheek, and felt the warm, delicate touch.
A ‘hometown fellow’ sent by the Cosmic Will?
Seems…pretty agreeable.
Lin Xing was awakened by the light poke. Drowsily, he opened his eyes, his mind still muddled in sleep.
What met his gaze was a delicate little face, close at hand.
A pair of small Dragon Horns adorned his forehead with golden patterns, and golden vertical pupils shone like amber soaked in honey.
A small, upturned nose, soft pink lips pursed slightly, unable to conceal her lively spirit.
A loose nightdress draped her slender form, and behind her, a fluffy Golden Tail tip curled lightly, as if curiously examining him.
He was stunned for a full three seconds, his mind blank, and then blurted out,
“You’re…? The ‘raising-type wife’ sent to me by Heaven?”
???
Hearing Lin Xing’s dangerous words, Lumiya began to question her own decision.
She raised her brows, pretending not to hear, and deliberately replied in a soft, childish voice,
“Wake up, wake up! Weren’t you the one begging me every day to transform?! I did it!”
That familiar tsundere tone instantly snapped Lin Xing awake!
He shot upright, eyes wide as saucers, his voice trembling,
“Lu-Lumiya?! You finally transformed!”
Excited, he wanted to reach out and hug her, but worried he’d accidentally hurt the little loli in front of him, his hand froze mid-air, face full of disbelief.
“You—you’re just too cute! You’re ten thousand times cuter than I imagined!”
Flustered by the compliment, Lumiya turned her head away, the tips of her ears quietly turning pink, but her tail couldn’t help but wag even more happily.
“Weren’t you always saying you wanted me to become a ‘flat-chested, tsundere, blonde loli with dragon horns’~? Th-this counts, right?”
Watching the little loli in front of him puff out her chest and speak so seriously about being “flat-chested” and “tsundere,”
Lin Xing’s face instantly flushed red.
He scratched his head, stammering,
“Y-yeah, of course it counts! Lumiya, no matter what you look like… you’re always the cutest!”
