My Ability Is Role-playing

Chaos Star Domain, Xi Province.

"Wait for me... phew..."

Dressed as a scholar, Dong Huaiming bent over, hands pressed on his knees, barely lifting his head to watch the creature resembling a Shiba Inu racing wildly in the distance. He gasped for breath and shouted, "98725, stop!"

"Brother Ran sent you to protect me, not to run wild!"

"If this continues, I'll write to Brother Ran right away!"

The Shiba Inu's ears twitched slightly, and it immediately turned around, casting Dong Huaiming a disdainful look akin to a human's.

This Xiao Ming is such a letdown!

A lazy pig indeed!

Not even as good as Su Qiangwei's wild orange cat, let alone comparable to my noble, elegant Ran Miao, not even in the same dimension!

Among the elite Grass Hut Academy members who descended upon the Cangming Nineteen States, his physical energy was the weakest. It's said he was initially quite the sickly one, and if he hadn't been lucky enough to encounter a good doctor, his pet couldn't have transported him out of the Chaos Star Domain in time before he would have dropped dead right there.

However, for Ran Baby's sake, I'll cut Xiao Ming some slack.

Lord 98725 is very considerate of his pet.

"Phew... phew..."

Dong Huaiming stumbled clumsily to the Shiba Inu's side, wiping the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, "It was fine earlier, why did you suddenly start running?"

"Did you find traces of the [Demon's Direct Disciple]?"

In Dong Huaiming's perception, 98725 in the real world was a golden Walnut Spirit, but here in the Chaos Star Domain, there didn't seem to be land animals with similar appearances. If it were to become an actual walnut, it would be somewhat outrageous.

After all, this guy itself is super capable, rumored to be the leader of the Moon Dream Race, though not at the level of destroying stars with bare hands, yet always a functional talent, not relying on combat power for meals.

After arriving in the Chaos Star Domain, 98725 turned into an animal that looks like a Shiba Inu, and it's uncertain how Ma Ran found it.

In any case, with Ma Ran's aid, 98725 broke through the subconscious barrier and regained its memories.

"Woof!"

98725 shot Xiao Ming a contemptuous glance, scratching a few crooked words into the ground with its paws.

Dong Huaiming lowered his head and saw that it wrote "Iron Head Kid".

"Oh snap! You actually managed to find Wu Di?"

"That guy is the [Demon's Direct Disciple]; there's a mentor-apprentice bond between them."

"If Wu Di can be found, things will become easier!"

"The dog is great!"

"Your sense of smell is way superior to other dogs!"

"If 98725 hadn't been born, the path of dogs would be as eternal as the long night!"

"You're the one!"

Dong Huaiming gestured a thumbs-up, making 98725 feel completely at ease.

Being able to get along so well with one person and one dog is obviously thanks to Xiao Ming's high emotional intelligence.

"This level of intelligence, coupled with those innate abilities..."

While praising the Shiba Inu beside him, Dong Huaiming silently sighed: "If 98725 had arrived in the Chaos Star Domain as a non-spiked sea urchin or a pufferfish instead of a Little Walnut, it might have been better, potentially becoming an Ocean Overlord."

98725 lifted its dog head, staring at Dong Huaiming for a moment.

Its dog eyes conveyed the words "And then?"

Xiao Ming didn't quite grasp its meaning.

No continuation? Not going to keep praising me?

98725 instantly understood.

This clumsy third-rate writer had run out of words, incapable of finding suitable terms to further describe Lord 98725, unable to fully articulate the greatness of 98725!

It turned its head without hesitation, and ran towards an unnamed small village several miles south.

"Damn! Wait for me at least!"

Dong Huaiming's face filled with tragedy, "Do weaklings really have no rights?"

As soon as these words left his mouth, he realized that weaklings indeed have no rights.

Since...

Due to his frail body, he couldn't even ride a horse and had to walk.

Given the Chaos Star Domain's dual suppression of technology and the extraordinary, motorcycles couldn't even be built.

As for bicycles, tricycles, skateboards, and other means of transit, they're utterly non-functional.

The road conditions in Cangming Nineteen States during this era are quite indescribable, full of bumps and uneven surfaces; if one were to create a simple vehicle, it wouldn't take long before Dong Huaiming's frail body would be shaken apart.

"If I had known earlier, I would've cultivated properly on Earth."

Dragging his exhausted legs, Dong Huaiming forced himself to follow, gritting his teeth and saying, "Setting goals too low isn't good either..."

As a member of Grass Hut Academy's first session, he sat in the same carriage with Ma Ran and Su Qiangwei.

Unfortunately, young Dong Huaiming, who had yet to outgrow his chunibyo dreams, set his ultimate life goal as merely gaining contact with extraordinary power, becoming an Extraordinary One.

Yes, just to become extraordinary, not demanding high combat power, even if it's just floating one centimeter with a flying technique or rubbing up a Little Fireball by hand, it would count as fulfilling his dreams and pursuits.

With his lacking extraordinary talent, Xiao Ming fell into complacency after achieving personal ambitions, only barely reaching the level of [Moving Mountains and Filling Seas], which was rather unimpressive compared to the elite combat power of his peers.

Even so, Dong Huaiming in the outside world could still be considered a "True Cultivator," flying around Earth without breaking a sweat.

Upon reaching the Chaos Star Domain, he turned into a gasping weakling after a short jog, only he knew the gap.

Though 98725 ran joyously, it never forgot its mission and didn't draw too far from Dong Huaiming.

Whenever Xiao Ming encountered a problem, it could immediately arrive to provide assistance.

"At least you have some conscience." Noticing 98725's actions, Dong Huaiming felt slightly relieved.

Originally, Ma Ran planned to arrange two more elite [Executors] to accompany him, but Dong Huaiming refused without hesitation.

The reason was simple: a man and a dog was a smaller target, less likely to draw the attention of local forces.

Moreover, in the Chaos Star Domain, even without extraordinary abilities, 98725 was a strong dog, coupled with some special small equipment and consumable items provided by the Ranzhou Science Academy, even encountering some non-top Extraordinary Ones wouldn't catch them unprepared.

Not aiming to kill the enemy, but at least capable of protecting himself and the scholarly weak Dong Huaiming.

Unless facing a large-scale siege, security wasn't a worry.

Furthermore...

98725 had extremely strong investigative capabilities; encountering any threatening creature would lead Dong Huaiming to avoid it beforehand.

"Phew... phew..."

A few short miles made Dong Huaiming question reality, feeling completely numb.

Standing in front of the small village, it took him ages to catch his breath, looking at the Shiba Inu wagging its tail on the ground, he exclaimed angrily, "Without me, you wouldn't manage, right? You're running so fast; what's the point? Preserve some physical energy to respond to emergencies!"

While Xiao Ming and 98725 bickered, a slightly piercing voice suddenly echoed from behind.

"Drop your weapon, raise your hands!"

"Do not turn around or you'll be killed immediately!"

This voice sounded like a teenager undergoing voice change, not pleasant, even with distinct personal characteristics. After hearing just two sentences, anyone would form an unshakeable first impression—this person would stubbornly refuse to turn around even if he hit a wall or shed a tear by the Yellow River.

Dong Huaiming exclaimed with surprise, "Wu Di! Is that you?"

"Brother Ran sent me to find you!"
