Chapter 180: Chapter 180: Study Together

"Here we are, Dragon Lord. We can start the class now." Xia Yue saw the system with a sly smile, then reined in her laughter and addressed Dragon Lord Ao Ye.

"Hmm, let’s get started then, number 5129, sit next to her." Dragon Lord Ao Ye nodded and instructed the system.

The system, looking bemused, didn’t understand why it was suddenly here.

[What’s going on? How did I get here? Could you explain to me first?] The system asked, looking at them.

"She wants you to learn to write in Dragon Language with her, so she exercised some of her host rights and summoned you here. Whatever she does, you do. This includes learning to recognize and write characters." Dragon Lord Ao Ye kindly explained.

[But, I know Dragon Language.] The system looked at him and replied.

"I don’t, and it’s dull learning alone. Having you by my side keeps me from feeling lonely. Plus, since you know the language, you can help me out." Xia Yue looked at it and said cheerfully.

[But Dragon Lord Ao Ye, he can teach you.] The system said with a helpless tone. It wondered whether Xia Yue was losing her mind. Wouldn’t it be better to ask the teacher directly?

"I want you with me. Since you’ve been so good to me, I want you to reap the benefits as well. Getting this class was all thanks to you, after all. You should enjoy it too," Xia Yue said, her face twisting into a devious expression.

[...] The system was speechless. So that’s why she suddenly stopped pursuing him yesterday; she had come up with this plan.

"Alright, let’s start the class, number 5129, take your seat." Dragon Lord Ao Ye interrupted them, seeing that they were about to continue speaking.

"Yes, Dragon Lord." Xia Yue replied with a smile, glanced at the system, then focused on her book.

Seeing the seriousness in Dragon Lord Ao Ye, the system didn’t dare to defy him. It could only jump on the table, open its book, and turn to the page he mentioned.

Dragon Lord Ao Ye continued with the teaching method from the previous day, leading Xia Yue and the system through twenty Dragon Language characters, and then instructed Xia Yue to familiarize herself with them and start writing.

[I don’t have hands. I don’t need to write, right?] The system looked at its own cat paws, then at Xia Yue’s hands, and appealed to Dragon Lord Ao Ye.

"You can dip your claw in ink and write with that." Dragon Lord Ao Ye told it.

"That’s right, no slacking off. If you don’t write well, there’ll be no dinner for you tonight." Xia Yue said, taking delight in the system’s predicament.

[...] I’m not a dog, but she is acting like one. The system finally understood Xia Yue’s ulterior motive. So she had been waiting for this moment.

She knew he was in a cat form and couldn’t use a pen, so she intentionally made him learn to write.

[Even though I know Dragon Language, do I really have to write as well?] The system looked at Dragon Lord Ao Ye with a helpless expression.

"That’s her command, not mine," Dragon Lord Ao Ye said calmly.

"Write! Whatever I write, you write. Feel my pain!" Xia Yue ground her teeth and finally spoke of her intentions.

[Host, I’m really doing this for your own good.] The system pleaded sorrowfully, as if Xia Yue’s revenge was a repayment of kindness with ingratitude.

"I don’t care. You do as I do until I finish learning." Xia Yue huffed angrily.

"Enough chatting, get to writing. There’ll be plenty of time to talk once the lesson’s over." Dragon Lord Ao Ye interrupted their conversation.
