New Emperor Of Ghouls

"Yes?"

A wave of dizziness struck the Sacred Ghoul Emperor causing him to sway slightly from left to right. The slight movements were too crude to go unmissed by the Linthos with their s.e.n.s.i.t.i.v.e senses.

"Your majesty! Your majesty!" Shouts of worry filtered into his ears as he stabled himself.

Zhong Yi opened his eyes to see himself surrounded by worried and concerned expression.

"I'm fine. Its nothing…" His hopes in pacifying a worried crowd were interrupted by another bout of dizziness. This time black spots appeared within his already struggling eyesight.

He could feel something within him rapidly draining inside of him.

"F.u.c.k," muttered Zhong Yi as he knew he was fighting a losing battle against the unconsciousness.

His limbs were quickly losing strength and he was about to collapse.

Before he dropped, he reached out with his left hand and felt someone move under it. With help, he lifted himself onto the back of a Lintho with the help of another two helping to lift him onto comrade's back.

"Bring me back..." Those were the only words that managed to escape from his being before the spots of darkness grew in size and number until his sight was fully covered from the dark.

Through the darkness, he could hear the panic-stricken cries of his soldiers, the hurried footsteps of hundreds running through the forest and the sound of wind being flung aside.

Pacing back and forth in a room just outside the Emperor was Cheng Jianjun.

Alongside him were all the higher-ups of the empire. The generals, the director and Jian Nan Nan. She was seen as the carer of the princess and was help in high regard by everyone else because of her kind and gentle personality.

"Sit down and relax, brother. You are making yourself look like a fool." Cheng Jianguo was starting to become irritated from his twin's constant heavy footsteps and rhetorical questions.

"How can I sit down and relax when our king is unconscious from an unknown problem!" Shouted the General

"At least, pretend to be calm, it is unbefitting of a man of your station to act so!"

"Man of my station! I'll show you what a man of my station does to cowards like you!"

"Cowards!! You stupid barbarian, use your brain for once!" Rebuked the Minister

Everyone else watched the siblings quarrel and did nothing to interrupt. Their interaction was amusing and highly needed because everyone was on edge.

"Don't you both still have duties to attend to," questioned Wen Yue, the director of the medicine department, as she walked out of the double door leading towards the royal father and daughter pair.

"How is he?" Asked Minister Cheng feeling the glare of his sibling burning into the side of his face.

"His majesty is fine. He should be waking up within a few minutes." Director of the research department answered instead, as he walked out of the room closing it behind him.

Everyone released a sigh of relief. It was like a huge weight was released from their shoulders

"Do you know what happened to his majesty," Chieftain Hong voiced the question in everyone's mind.

"Nothing bad, with the information given to us and the circ.u.mstances of the situation. His majesty made a drastic decision not knowing how important fate energy is to his body." Said Huang Long.

"His body was still adapting to the use of fate energy. His king's blood is the result of The Sacred Ghoul Empire's fate energy manifesting inside his body and the rapid draining of it, used up all his energy, that's all." Finished Wen Yue

"How is the princess?" Asked Jian Nan Nan with a soft tone.

"She is coping with it just fine, she is a strong little girl." Wen Yue eyes softened as she recalled the princess's determined eye holding back the tears.

"Daddy!" Princess Mei's shout attracted everyone's attention the room followed by a thud from a body crashing into another.

"Ugh," The sound of a groan filtered through the door. "Zhong Mei, why are you crying?"

"Because I thought you would leave me just like mummy did." Zhong Mei between sobs.

"Come here," the sound of a duvet moving followed. "Your mummy didn't leave you. She didn't think she could protect you with everyone watching her so closely. She loves you so much"

Everyone felt pity build up within them. Their queen had to send away the princess to protect her and she didn't even reach here unharmed.

"I would never leave you ever. You mean the world to me and I would fight the gods to keep you safe!"

Princess Mei's sobs quieted and you could only hear steady breaths.

"Come in"

General Hong pushed the door open slowly to not make too much noise and the rest walked quietly.

They all stood at a distance from the footboard of the bed, standing side by side.

Zhong Yi sat on the bed with Zhong Mei sitting in his arms asleep. His purple hair flowed down to his shoulders and never once did his eyes raise from his daughter's face, he wiped the tears from her face before addressing his subordinates.

"Now that we have that region cleared and don't have to worry about any unwanted visitors, departments should be fully functional by the end of this week." The sacred Ghouls Emperor's voice was solemn.

"Minister Cheng and all General stay, the rest get back to your duties. There is much work you have to do." After his words, the room had much more space.

"Your majesty, please do not do something like that again," pleaded Cheng Jianguo

"I admit, it was foolish to do something like that. I shouldn't have done it somewhere where I could've been killed," admitted Zhong Yi.

"You misunderstand your majesty, the reason your majesty passed out was that the fate energy within your body was drained to make the changes." Corrected Hong Hanjing.

"Are you sure? There shouldn't be any fate energy inside my body. Fate energy should either go to the nation armament or the fate dragon." Questioned Yan Zhong Yi.

"That was what Director Huang and Director Wen said."

'That shouldn't be possible, right? The fate energy stored inside the empire should have enough to make changes to tens of regions, so I shouldn't have passed out. Unless I can't access it until I reach a certain level. So the fate energy came from me?' Thought the male Ghoul.

"..your majesty?"

Zhong Yi looked up to see the worried looks on everyone's faces for a moment before his hardened from coming to a decision, "we will begin operation stable in a month."

Their worried faces turned shocked.
