Chapter 219: This is truly awesome
It wasn’t the first time Xia Li had taken someone else’s divine artifact.
Wuqi, the previous victim, appeared particularly calm at this moment.
As for Lucia, the dragon, she stared at Xia Li with a silly and infatuated look, her already fair face illuminated even more by the light emanating from the blade.
She let out a long string of “Wow~”s, then blinked at Xia Li, her long eyelashes like two brushes, her eyes filled with admiration.
Her Xia Li, so powerful!
It was so great that she didn’t clash with Xia Li from the start, but instead turned him from an enemy into a friend!
The evil dragon was bubbling with joy, while the cow cat behind her had an expression of “seen it all before.”
Only Qin Chuan, the one who had been outdone, opened his mouth, then swallowed his words back down.
“Give me your hand.” Xia Li felt it was about time.
The magic power transmitted from the Heart of Stone felt unfamiliar at first, but as it enveloped the Demon Repelling Sword, the strange aura became familiar.
It transformed into the kind of magic power that was ubiquitous in Azure Continent, floating in the air.
Lucia’s eyes sparkled.
Since arriving on Earth, this was the first time she had felt such a strong aura of magic power!
She quickly reached out her small hand, covering Xia Li’s large hand.
Xia Li turned his hand over, grasping Lucia’s soft little hand, and together they held the hilt of the Demon Repelling Sword.
The light on the Demon Repelling Sword flickered between extinguishing and igniting, finally reaching a balance.
“Wow…”
Lucia’s small mouth hung open slightly, the entire dragon barely containing her excitement.
The young woman’s brown eyes widened, overflowing with brilliance, then these wisps of light gathered together, dyeing the color of her pupils into a dazzling gold.
As if wearing a pair of cosmetic contact lenses, the brown in the depths of the young woman’s eyes completely faded, replaced by a gold that symbolized nobility and arrogance, with a touch of bloodthirsty red at the center.
Gold and red, these were the dragon eyes of a pureblood silver dragon.
Then, her ink-black hair was as if washed several times by an invisible force, until only a pure white color remained, like freshly fallen snow.
To be precise, it was silver-white.
Like a waterfall woven from silver threads, this snowy white hair was free from any earthly impurities. With a gust of wind, it gently swayed, possessing a mysterious beauty that was difficult to describe.
“…”
Xia Li was stunned by the scene before him.
Lucia’s current state, except for her slightly shorter height, was exactly the same as the “Silver Dragon Queen” Xia Li had seen many times in Azure Continent.
Just by absorbing magic power once, could Lucia’s true form be directly restored?
As he was thinking this, Lucia’s silver-white hair faded like a receding tide, and the color of her eyes returned to the common brown of humans.
She blinked, a playful smile on her face.
As if she had done something to tease Xia Li, the brave hero, a smug smile appeared on Lucia’s pretty face.
Then.
“Slap, slap,”
“Slap, slap,”
Xia Li heard a flapping sound.
The sound slapped against the floor, sounding like a fish struggling.
Thinking the grass carp from earlier had escaped, Xia Li looked around but couldn’t find it.
Then his gaze focused.
He saw a silver-white tail covered in “fish scales” hanging down from between Lucia’s legs.
Lucia was wearing a white dress, and this dragon tail fell to the ground like a third leg, occasionally slapping the floor with its tip.
The dragon tail was about a meter long, with extra length trailing behind Lucia, enough to coil into a small semicircle.
It was like a small hook, curled on the floor, making Xia Li’s heart itch with anticipation.
Not good.
The enemy, Lucia Sivana, had used a charm spell.
Xia Li couldn’t resist at all.
Xia Li knew he wasn’t a furry enthusiast.
But after reading so many dragon comics recently, and constantly imagining his girlfriend’s dragon form, when he actually saw Lucia transform, he was completely rooted to the spot.
“Hee hee~”
Seeing Xia Li’s silly and stunned reaction, Lucia was very happy.
The evil dragon showed the smugness in her heart on her face without any concealment.
Xia Li couldn’t help himself, squatting down to touch the dragon tail.
Lucia, whose tail was grabbed, felt uncomfortable at first, her body stiffening noticeably, but then she accepted this touch with its burning warmth.
She gently swayed the tip of her tail, the most sensitive part connected to her nerve endings.
The tip of her tail slowly lifted, gently wrapping around Xia Li’s wrist.
It was very delicate, very smooth.
It felt like a chubby silver snake in his hand.
Xia Li touched it from top to bottom.
The fully mature dragon scales felt substantial in his palm. This material, hard yet slightly flexible, was even more advanced than the armor used by the nobles and royalty in Azure Continent.
The dragon scales in the middle section of the tail were harder, while the further down, the narrower the tail’s diameter and the smaller the scales, so the hardness decreased. The tiny scales, smaller than a fingernail, were surprisingly soft to the touch.
Xia Li’s Adam’s apple bobbed.
His blood was already boiling.
He used to get excited when he saw dragons.
But his excitement back then was about wielding a sword and slaying dragons, the surge of fighting spirit accelerating the blood flow throughout his body.
But the excitement now, was slightly different…
Although it was still about slaying dragons, the weapon in his hand had changed. It was no longer the Demon Repelling Sword, a symbol of human heroes, but the supreme holy sword, a symbol of a man’s ultimate power.
Xia Li was lost in his touch, as if truly under some kind of charm spell. He happily grabbed the dragon tail, about to have a close encounter with his cheek.
With a “whoosh.”
The dragon tail retracted under Lucia’s skirt like a measuring tape being pulled back in.
“…” Xia Li looked up with a blank expression.
Lucia’s face flushed red.
Being touched like that, any dragon would be overwhelmed!
In the past, when Lucia was excited or unhappy, she would subconsciously want to wag her tail. Back then, without a tail, she would wag a phantom limb. Now that the phantom limb had become real, she was not used to it.
In dragon form, the dragon tail was strong and powerful, an indispensable fighting force.
But the tail in human form… was a bit fragile.
Lucia felt embarrassed, not only retracting her tail but also turning her body sideways, silently returning to her seat in a dragon-like posture.
She still understood the principle of pride before a fall.
She couldn’t get carried away at this time, otherwise she would be overturned by Xia Li.
“I haven’t finished checking yet.” Xia Li reluctantly withdrew his hand, his face full of lingering desire.
“There’s nothing to check…” Lucia pinched the corner of her skirt, winking at Xia Li, “I’ll show you later.”
Xia Li immediately understood the evil dragon’s meaning, the smile on his face deepening. He coughed lightly, retracting his reluctant expression.
He turned to look at Qin Chuan and Wuqi behind him.
Qin Chuan was fine. This kind of dragon-form beautiful girl also existed in his previous world. Although the appearance of demi-humans in that world was relatively random, and it was impossible to find someone as beautiful as Lucia, he had seen this kind of transformation scene more or less.
In contrast, Wuqi, who only knew the world of cats, had never seen such a scene.
The moment Lucia extended her dragon tail, he felt an invisible pressure on his chest, making it difficult to breathe, and even a sense of near-death as if encountering a natural enemy.
Wuqi pathetically climbed onto Qin Chuan’s back, his front claws hooking onto Qin Chuan’s shoulders, looking as pathetic as could be.
“Meow…”
『Dragon Sister is mighty. 』
Wuqi shivered behind Qin Chuan.
Qin Chuan held the cat’s butt with one hand and turned to ask Xia Li.
“Is the magic power enough?”
He only cared about efficiency. If it wasn’t enough for Xia Li, they would have to find another way to stimulate his Heart of Stone.
“Is it enough?”
Xia Li didn’t know if it was enough, so he turned to ask the evil dragon.
Lucia counted on her fingers, but after calculating for a long time, she still couldn’t figure out the magic power storage capacity of so many dragon scales.
But, to be able to directly transform into a dragon tail… she could use so much magic!
“Well… enough for what?”
Hearing Xia Li’s question, Lucia looked blank for a moment.
Xia Li chuckled: “To go back, of course!”
He had been thinking about when to take Lucia back to her hometown, when to use the two-way teleportation scroll to return to Earth, and then solve the ID card issue.
But this dragon, carefree and worry-free, didn’t take these things to heart at all!
Instead, she focused her attention on magic tricks, and by the way, teased Xia Li.
“Oh, oh…”
Lucia nodded, then lowered her head and estimated for a while.
That’s not right.
She didn’t even know how to open the plane teleportation magic, so how could she know how much magic power it would consume?
This kind of teleportation magic, similar to summoning a hero, was above level ten in terms of power.
Let alone the inherited memories of their dragon race, even the entire Azure Continent probably couldn’t find two people who could cast it, right?
“…Definitely not enough.”
But there were outsiders present, and in order to save face for the dragons, Lucia couldn’t say she couldn’t do it at this time.
Magic matters had to be discussed with Xia Li in private. At this stage, saying it wasn’t enough was enough.
Just this little bit of magic power, and you want to activate plane teleportation magic? That was definitely impossible.
Lucia said it with certainty. Hearing that it was still far from enough, Xia Li had to turn his attention back to Qin Chuan.
“I’ll try again.” Qin Chuan himself was kind-hearted, and he was happy to help.
Xia Li nodded and pulled the delicate dragon girl beside him over.
“What are you doing…” Lucia burrowed into his arms shyly.
Why did Xia Li always like to touch her in front of others recently? Hugging and cuddling, it was so embarrassing.
“Kiss me.” Xia Li requested.
“Meow!”
The cow cat behind Qin Chuan meowed.
Lucia stood still, her face flushed red, refusing to move.
After a while, she blinked her almond-shaped eyes, suddenly understanding Xia Li’s intention.
So she turned her head shyly, and with her thin lips, quickly brushed against Xia Li’s thick skin.
So embarrassing for a dragon!
But in order to obtain more magic power, she had to bite the bullet and go for it.
“Mwah…”
Xia Li wiped the dragon saliva on his face evenly, satisfied, and looked at Qin Chuan.
Qin Chuan only frowned slightly, feeling the reaction of the Heart of Stone in his chest.
“No…” he said.
“I don’t feel anything special about this deliberate act.”
Xia Li pondered for a few seconds, summarizing: “You can’t really fool yourself… This kind of thing, like being frightened, needs to be unintentional… ”
After all, Qin Chuan had just been sad for a moment because he remembered his friend. No one would be constantly sad because of memories. If he could really do that, his mental state would be abnormal.
After considering it comprehensively, Xia Li decided not to make things difficult for Qin Chuan.
He was already quite satisfied with getting a tail today.
He didn’t expect to collect all the magic power at once.
When Xia Li was summoned to the other world, he heard the people who summoned him say that opening the plane teleportation magic required a huge amount of magic power support. It was definitely not something that could be easily achieved by Qin Chuan feeling sad for a while.
Now, occasionally calling Qin Chuan over to absorb some magic power, the magic power would eventually be enough. At least the collection speed was hundreds of times faster than before.
What Xia Li was more concerned about now was going back to the room with the little dragon and studying the dragon tail that was making his heart itch.
After sheathing the Demon Repelling Sword, Xia Li went to the balcony to put the sword away. When he returned to the living room, he happened to hear a emotionless narration coming from Wuqi’s watch.
“‘That’s too much!'”
“…Your machine has such a high latency!” Lucia couldn’t help but say.
It had been a long time since she kissed Xia Li, the aftertaste was gone, and Wuqi was still emphasizing it belatedly.
Wuqi meowed, lowered his head, and continued to struggle typing on the watch face with his paw.
Xia Li looked at the cat, then turned his gaze to Qin Chuan.
Calling Old Qin over, absorbing his magic power, and then sending him back…
It made Xia Li feel guilty for summoning and dismissing him like that.
That’s not how you make friends, Xia Li had taught Lucia many times.
A relationship built on exploitation and being exploited was not a healthy friendship.
After careful consideration, Xia Li still felt that it was better to let interpersonal relationships develop naturally.
“It’s getting late, go back and rest early. Thanks for your help today,” Xia Li said.
“It’s nothing…”
Qin Chuan didn’t want to disturb them, so he went to the door to take off his shoe covers.
The shoe covers were made of cloth and felt thick in his hand. Qin Chuan didn’t know if they were disposable or reusable, but seeing Xia Li’s indifferent expression, he silently crumpled the shoe covers and stuffed them into his pocket.
“Let me know if you need anything,” Qin Chuan added after a pause.
Xia Li smiled and saw him out, saying half-jokingly.
“It would be great if you could take that thing off and lend it to me for a few days. Maybe I’ll have enough magic power then.”
Qin Chuan actually thought about his joke seriously. After a while, he shook his head, thinking it probably wouldn’t work.
“This Heart of Stone is a blessing from the Goddess of Fate. Once it becomes a part of my body, it represents the fulfillment of a certain contract. My life is also bound to it…”
The more Qin Chuan spoke, the less confident he became.
Thinking about it, he still felt something was wrong.
He was the master of the Heart of Stone, its only master. They were bound not only by fate, but also by a life-and-death relationship.
The Heart of Stone had been with him for so many years, and he had never seen it respond to anyone other than him.
Except for him, no one could use the Heart of Stone.
It was even more impossible for it to be drained of magic power so easily by Xia Li, like just now.
“…”
Qin Chuan made a hesitant gesture with his lips. He still couldn’t help but ask the question in his mind.
“What’s your ability?” he turned and asked Xia Li.
“Me?”
“Meow meow!”
The cow cat behind Qin Chuan answered first.
They thought he was going to say something important, so they waited for him to frantically type on the keyboard with his little paws.
“‘My ability is prophecy, and turning into a cat’!”
Lucia was led astray by Wuqi, thinking it was a self-introduction session, so she volunteered: “My ability is to eat three kilograms of food in one meal…”
◈◈◈
As if “being able to eat” wasn’t an ability, Lucia added.
“I also have another ability, which is not dying after being hit by a car.”
She finished speaking seriously.
The corners of Qin Chuan’s mouth twitched noticeably.
He thought it was funny, but held back.
He finally focused his attention on Xia Li.
Xia Li’s ability was what he cared about most.
“My ability… drawing my sword?” Xia Li said thoughtfully.
He was originally very confident in this answer, but after being emphasized by Qin Chuan, he even began to doubt what his ability really was.
There was no system when he transmigrated. He arrived in the other world, drew the Demon Repelling Sword, and then became the master of this divine artifact. After that, he fought his way through, becoming the strongest dragon slayer praised by people as if he had cheats…
Xia Li was quite satisfied with his cheat, and before returning to Earth, he firmly believed that his cheat was the Demon Repelling Sword.
But now… after two experiments, Xia Li felt that his ability might not be so simple.
“‘His ability is 【cuckolding】, specializing in cuckolding other people’s divine artifacts’!!!”
Wuqi, the victim, quickly typed on the keyboard, expressing his grievance.
The little dragon following behind Xia Li also thought it made sense and agreed.
“Xia Li is a cuckolder.”
“…” Xia Li’s mouth twitched, grabbing her dragon claw to restrain her, “What cuckolder, you little dragon don’t understand anything, don’t talk nonsense.”
Xia Li wasn’t actually sure about cuckolding other people’s divine artifacts.
After returning to the other world, he could find an opportunity to try it…
“It’s very possible.”
Even Qin Chuan, who was always serious, agreed with Wuqi’s statement.
Whether he could cuckold them or not was unknown, but Xia Li could definitely use other people’s divine artifacts to a certain extent, even if those artifacts were already bound to their owners or had unique bindings, Xia Li could still use them.
This was amazing.
What was equally amazing to Qin Chuan was the fight with Xia Li on the bridge that day.
At that time, Qin Chuan was in a berserk state. The collapsing space and the endless energy overflowing from the Heart of Stone allowed him to regain his strength after a long time.
He used his ability to change fate on Xia Li at that time…
For example, making Xia Li trip over a stone on the ground when he swung his sword, or making a falling rock from a landslide hit Xia Li’s head.
These were Qin Chuan’s usual methods when facing enemies and danger.
But that day, Qin Chuan found that he couldn’t change Xia Li’s fate.
He even tried to peek into Xia Li’s fate, but he saw nothing.
At that time, Xia Li hadn’t touched the Heart of Stone, so it shouldn’t be possible that the Heart of Stone was protecting Xia Li…
The only plausible guess Qin Chuan could think of was that Xia Li’s fate was already determined and could not be changed.
His fate was a perfect closed loop.
“…”
Qin Chuan’s thoughts were complicated, and he went downstairs in silence.
The place where he lived wasn’t far from Xia Li’s home, just around the corner.
Xia Li and Dragon Sister both went downstairs to see him off, which surprised Qin Chuan.
He hadn’t had friends for a long time, or rather… he had never had friends on Earth.
“No need to see me off, I can find my way.”
“It’s okay, just two steps.”
Xia Li felt that it was necessary to care about Old Qin’s physical and mental health. It wasn’t far, so he could treat it as a walk after dinner for the little dragon.
“Taking Little Lu out so late?”
The old man at the gate, with a mouthful of yellow teeth, greeted Xia Li with a smile from afar. Xia Li squeezed Lucia’s palm, and Lucia shyly took the initiative to answer.
“Good evening, Grandpa…”
“Haha, good evening. Go have fun with Xia Li. I’ll open the door for you if you come back late.”
The old man chuckled, and Lucia, with a shy face, quickened her pace to leave.
Xia Li was very satisfied with the little dragon’s performance and would definitely reward her well when they got back.
“How’s your job today?” he asked Qin Chuan.
“Not bad, it’s pretty good.”
“You found a job so quickly. Wuqi and I haven’t even reacted yet, and you’ve already negotiated the salary with the boss lady…”
“The situation in these small restaurants is pretty much the same, there’s not much to choose from. For me, as long as it includes food and accommodation, it’s fine. And the boss lady even gives me one day off a week, which is already very good.”
Qin Chuan was quite satisfied with his job.
Lucia listened quietly. She wasn’t sleepy when it came to work.
“Xia Li, Xia Li, how much pocket money does he make a month?”
Lucia asked Xia Li with great interest.
Xia Li didn’t know the specific situation, so he could only look at Qin Chuan.
This kind of job with food and accommodation, the salary generally wouldn’t be high, and the economy was in a downturn, all industries were struggling.
“Two thousand five hundred…” Qin Chuan said shamefully.
This number, in a big city like Qingcheng City, was basically the lowest level of laborers.
No social security, no basic social welfare… a meager salary, a position so cheap that anyone could easily replace it…
This was even worse than the interns who were called “oxen and horses” of society.
“Two thousand five hundred!”
However, what Qin Chuan heard wasn’t ridicule, regret, or sympathy.
He actually heard a heartfelt exclamation.
“Two thousand five hundred, that much!!”
Lucia’s eyes were bright, her brown pupils like two little suns under the streetlights.
Qin Chuan raised his head slightly. He didn’t see any mockery or sarcasm in Lucia’s sincere eyes…
Dragon Sister seemed to be truly amazed.
“That’s very good!”
Lucia exclaimed: “I only make one thousand two hundred yuan!”
This transmigrator, after being away from Earth for so many years, could find a job immediately upon returning, and a job that paid nearly one hundred yuan a day… it was indeed very good!
Lucia admired his adaptability.
“Thank you.” A wry smile appeared on Qin Chuan’s lips.
“Very good”…
This was the first time someone had praised him since he returned to Earth, and it seemed to have healed his self-deprecating heart a little.
Qin Chuan knew a little about Lucia through the stories in Xia Li’s book. Her carefree and optimistic attitude had won the favor of many readers. Now, Qin Chuan had witnessed the heroine’s spirit firsthand.
Staying optimistic…
It was indeed something he needed now.
“I won’t see you upstairs, see you next time.”
“Okay…”
Xia Li came to the intersection and waved goodbye to Qin Chuan.
The two tacitly raised their wrists and turned around at the same time.
“What about me?”
Xia Li had only taken two steps when he couldn’t help but squeeze the soft dragon claw in his hand.
“Don’t you praise me too?” Xia Li asked shamelessly.
Lucia had to coax him: “You’re also very good!”
“How good?”
“Very good everywhere!”
“No, you’ve used that phrase to praise others, you have to praise me with a different phrase.” Xia Li was unhappy.
“Then you’re amazing!” Lucia gave him a thumbs up.
“Amazing where?”
“Amazing everywhere!”
“Then say ‘hubby is amazing’.”
“…”
Lucia glanced at him, her smile pausing for a moment, then she strode towards home.
“Hey~”
Xia Li knew it would be like this.
He caught up with the evil dragon’s pace. The two figures under the streetlights briefly separated, then quickly merged together again.
“Why is it that every time I mention this term of address, you’re like you’ve triggered some kind of passive skill, and you’re unwilling to talk to me?” Xia Li said behind her like a resentful husband.
“Because… it’s not allowed.”
“Why not!”
“If the term of address changes, then we’ll have to call each other that in the future!” Lucia replied loudly.
Didn’t she know Xia Li well enough?
If she made an exception for Xia Li once, and called him “hubby” softly and sweetly according to his wishes, then he would definitely pester her to call him that every day!
This was just like how at first, kissing was awkward, but later, he didn’t even ask for her consent when he kissed her, just shoving his pig mouth at her and kissing her.
Therefore, she couldn’t break this rule, once broken, there was no going back!
“We’re going to call each other that in the future anyway, so it’s the same whether you call me that sooner or later. If you call me that sooner, I can enjoy it sooner… the enjoyment in my mind, isn’t that a good deal?”
Xia Li caught up with the evil dragon’s fleeing footsteps.
The evil dragon didn’t look back, her voice filled with indignation: “It’s not the same!”
“Why not!”
“The first, the first time is still very important, we have to keep it fresh!”
“Who told you that? I’m a sentimental person, I don’t like freshness, I want to experience it now!”
“No way!”
“Hey, what’s the big deal, I also call you hubby…”
“Back so soon?”
Xia Li followed behind the stinky dragon, indignant. When they returned to the entrance of the community, the old man looked at him again.
The old man smiled first, then sensed something was wrong. He looked at Lucia walking in front, then turned his gaze to Xia Li following behind.
“Had a fight?”
“Just a little disagreement…”
Xia Li chuckled and quickly caught up.
The old man sighed. It was getting late, and he hunched over to close the community gate.
Guarding the border when he was young, guarding his family in middle age, and in his old age, only an iron gate was left for him to guard.
“It’s good to be young…” he sighed.
◈◈◈
“Why are you running so fast?!”
Xia Li chased all the way to the door before catching up with the stinky dragon.
Those little short legs were getting faster and faster.
Before, whenever this thing ran, Xia Li could catch her with a simple reach.
Now, it was different. Her little short legs were like a motor, she would disappear in a flash.
Xia Li thought this was very likely related to the recovery of her magic power…
The more Lucia’s magic power recovered, the more parts of her true form would be revealed, and the stronger her physical body would become.
Closing the door, the previously lively living room was left with only Little Cotton, the kitten, napping on the sofa.
Lucia drew the curtains on the balcony, then took off her windbreaker, fanning her neck vigorously.
Running all the way up had made her quite hot.
Xia Li walked over, and Lucia stared at him intently.
Being stared at by the evil dragon, Xia Li couldn’t stay honest.
He had endured for a long time, holding back for quite a while.
Reaching out, Xia Li lifted a corner of Lucia’s snow-white long dress.
Then he half-squatted down and stuck his head directly under it.
Even the strongest brave hero would eventually fall under a maiden’s skirt.
Lucia: “…”
Her calm little face seemed to have waves crashing against it, suddenly turbulent and surging.
“Where’s the tail?!” Xia Li’s confused voice came out.
He swore he just couldn’t resist wanting to see the dragon tail, absolutely no other improper thoughts.
However, he couldn’t even see a shadow of the tail.
Under the white, sand-like long dress, there was a pair of skin-colored shorts—Xia Li knew these were safety shorts.
But at the back of the shorts, Xia Li saw a huge hole.
Inside the hole, pink panties with a cartoon cat head design were faintly visible.
The panties seemed to have been torn at the corners, and Xia Li could see a small patch of white, tender buttocks when he looked up.
Xia Li instantly understood how this hole came to be.
When her magic power recovered to a certain level, Lucia’s dragon tail was no longer a magical illusion, but a real, long tail connected to her coccyx.
The moment the tail grew out, the pants would burst… This was not difficult to understand.
“…”
Their eyes met.
Neither of them moved in the suddenly quiet scene, only the calico kitten was left licking its fur on the sofa.
Xia Li absolutely did not mean to deliberately expose Lucia.
Presumably, Lucia herself felt embarrassed. She started taking off her jacket when she came back, and it seemed she wanted to go to the bathroom to take a shower and take care of this embarrassing situation.
However, Xia Li beat her to it.
Xia Li’s throat bobbed, and in the moment of choosing his words, his mind went blank.
“…Your panties are torn. ”
“Slap!”
Xia Li saw a soft, tofu-like foot emerge from the green fish-mouth slippers, then ruthlessly kick his shoulder.
Fortunately, Xia Li’s center of gravity was stable, otherwise he would have been kicked away by the stinky dragon.
“You you, you dare to say it out loud!!”
