Blood Emperor's Lazy Doctor [Hiatus]

Peering down at the girl, lost in a trance. He smoothly turns to the side, taking in deep breaths. The fog in his mind clearing ever so slightly.

I'm alive...

He was still having trouble digesting this. He had long come to terms with his death. That's why he came to this sealed off land, on this lowly world. He could just quietly pass on here, and yet...

He turns his head back upon the girl laying in bed. And yet by some strange twist of fate, just minutes away from his death, he chanced upon her. She saved him, a dead man walking.

His eyelids narrow as a strange light flickers within.

His brows furrow as if he was wrestling with a difficult problem. The knot was getting deeper and deeper.

Outside a few birds passed by the window, flickering the light in the room. The wind rustles the trees, disturbing the comfort of a squirrel. Peeking its little head outside, looking here and there. Once satisfied with its inspection, his little head returned to his home.

Inside the room, the god of war's knotted brows creased out. His lips purse as the light inside dimmed, making it difficult to discern his expression.

. . .

Soon three days had passed by, Hong Luo was still stuck in a dreamless state. She found herself in a long slumber that started off good, but got uncomfortable near the end.

At first her sleep wasn't bad. She felt like she was floating, surrounded by warmth. Feeling very comfortable. Only to be deprived of that warmth soon after. She cursed to what ever took it away.

Supposedly understanding her, it gradually came back! Yet, strangely, for some unknown reason, it didn't feel the same. Why was that? Was I scammed?

After pondering whether she got swindled, out of no where, a mountain was pressed against her. The warmth of this mountain reminded her of the first warmth. Only if you forget about the weight. It was dreadful!

She squirmed and wiggled, but couldn't move an inch. She even pushed against it with all her might, but it wouldn't budge. She broke out in a cold sweat. She thought she was going to be crushed to death, alright!

Give her any death but crushing and she'd be hunky dory.

Forcing her tired eyes open, she comes face to face with the mountain itself. And what a high peak it is! The god of war, that she met and treated, was embracing her in a death grip on her bed. This grip was painfully tight, and unrelenting. Which left her conflicted.

What to do?

Why is the god of war hugging me? Wait, this isn't hugging it's crushing! Is he trying to kill me? Did I do something that upset this god? Was my treatment of him wrong in some way?

Hong Luo "...." Should I castrate him?

As her thoughts took a 180, the mountain of a man opened his eyes, completely sending her soul flying into a wall.

He just had to wake up while she was debating whether or not to turn him into a eunuch... Dear god she swears that she was just thinking about it, and not going to act! Her little face had started to show signs of panic when the god of war gives her another scare.

He reached out with his large hand and started stroking her head...

Did she suddenly turn into a pet?

Retreat! RETREAT!

She abruptly stood ram rod straight on the bed with a extremely serious expression and rushed herself off. In the process she tripped over the god of war, catching herself in a bridge before nearly kissing the floor.

While our dear Hong Luo was rushing to who knows where, the god of war of was currently dumbfounded. Was his petting of the rabbit coarse and not done correctly? Last time she had done the same, she had still, despite his coaxing, rushed off and hadn't been appeased.

Looking over his shoulder he was just in time to catch her nearly head butting a bronze mirror.

"Ahhhh, be it ghouls or ghost, as devils run rampant. This lazy sister's glad her heart realms strong!"

She smacked the desk as if pacifying some inner urge. "For once this lazy sister will thank the Buddha for being awake!" Dammit I thought life decided to pull one over me, turning me into an animal... Thank god I don't have to go exact revenge!

The god of war's eyes flashed with enlightenment upon her out burst. He then leaves the bed and walks over.

Without permission, taking hold of her small hand, he gently rubs it with his coarse and lean palms.

Hong Luo "..." what is he doing? She looked at the man with confusion.

Paying no heed, he speaks with a wooden expression, "Does it hurt?"

Hurt? Absentmindedly she responds "Besides my poor heart and its fright, I'm perfectly fine."

"Mm" He gives a slight acknowledgement.

She looks down at the hand, that's currently being treated like a stress ball. Then looks back up at the man relieving said stress.

Hong Luo "..." What does one do in a situation like this?

She decided to probe. "Excuse me dear sir are you having fun?"

Fun? He looks up at her, his eyes full of question marks.

Blinking twice. Why is he looking at me like that? I'm the one who's asking the question here bud! She can't help but feel slighted. Breathing in and out, she relents.

"What is it?"

Time ticked away, the silence becoming awkward. Hong Luo was just about to change the subject when he opened his mouth.

"What is fun?"

Pfff! She nearly bit off her own tongue. What? What kind of question is that? Is this god constipated?

But if she thinks carefully about it, he's a god right? So as a god he would naturally not know about a lowly thing such as fun?

Once confirmed, she started to feel pity for this fellow. Gods have it hard too don't they? They don't even get to have fun.

Coming to a decision, she decided to guide this poor ignorant fellow. "Fun is a feeling. When you do what you enjoy, you'll find it fun. For example..."

She thought about it for a second, looking all around until her eyes stopped. "How you're rubbing my hand. If you find this fun, you'll want to do it all the time. But if you flip the feeling, and you don't want to, then you'll avoid the action, as if it were the plague. Nobody likes being sick after all." Accept that one strange fellow I met once.

The god of war contemplates.

Hong Luo lets him take his time thinking. Learning something new can't be rushed after all.

He looks up at her. "okay."

Okay? Does he understand? It's so hard to tell with that face! At least he doesn't seem like the hard type. A little quiet, a dash of stupid, but skipping the scary.

Thinking back to his guarded position, he reminded her of an injured animal, which would explain itself perfectly. But if you throw in his constipation, then you got a naive guarded animal. Which in itself...

Is pretty cute!

The memory of him making the fish and her eating it gets muddled in. Gosh, now shes starting to feel hungry. A little dash here, and little spice there, ignoring the bad bits... Drool was just beginning to form.

"Nuyun."

"Huh?" She looks up befuddled. She hadn't been paying attention, her thoughts wondering big time as she swallowed the pool of saliva.

Angry cloud? What is it going to rain again? Curiosity was too strong, turning her head to glance at the window.

(Author's note: Nuyun means 'Angry Cloud' in Chinese. It's written like this 怒云. I used all mighty Google, if it's wrong them fudge it! Just think its correct and move on. I'm not changing it! :x)

There's no rain. Even if there was, how could he see if there were any storm clouds? The window is closed.

The god of war had long stopped stroking her palm, yet still had it firmly in his grasp. Instead he was looking at her deeply.

"Name."

Oh.

She understood now. That's what he's called. Since he told me his, I should comply right?

"I'm Hong Luo, the energy efficient sister who is also a doctor on the side. Nice to meet you!" With a big grin on her face, her voice full of gusto.

"En." He nodded his head.

Taking the initiative, hand in hand, she brought Nuyun back to her bed. Where else are they suppose to sit? Is it her fault that her room can't provide?
