Bloody Emperor 24 A Little Of Fluffiness

"Right now that I was almost asleep," Nero grunted when he heard the knocking sound at the door.

"The breakfast is ready. Come eat with us." Nero could hear Xun Lan calling him in a very cheerful tone. But he was not in a good mood. If normal people can be in a bad mood for waking up early, vampires can get worse because they hate mornings even more.

"Breakfast!? DOUBLE s.h.i.t!!" Nero couldn't believe he was being prevented from sleeping to eat. He does not eat typical food. "Will they serve me a gla.s.s of blood? Oh yes, n.o.body knows what a vampire is."

"If you want, I can come in there to help you out of bed...Maybe help you get dressed...I don't mind..." Xun Lan started speaking clearly, but soon the tone dropped and ended up whispering. She was trying to be bold, but she was still a little shy.

"Really? Can it get any worse?" Nero was starting to panic. He could handle b.l.o.o.d.y scenes well, but he didn't know what to do with Xun Lan's advances.

In fact, Nero knew how to solve the problem for good. "Tearing her throat, separating her head from the body! Muahahahahahaha!" He kept thinking like that every time he saw Xun Lan giving him flirty looks.

Nero loved to tear throats. That is definitely not a good habit, and Sarah was encouraging him to stop that kind of thinking whenever he doesn't know what to do. She wouldn't let him kill Xun Lan just because she fell in love with him.

"Does your silence mean yes?" Xun Lan was already very nervous about being saying these things in the corridor. Still, when Nero didn't answer, she thought he was also shy. So she prepared to take that first step for them and reached for the door handle.

"Aaah!" Xun Lan was already immersed in thoughts of what kinds of things she and Nero would do and did not notice when he abruptly opened the door and almost reached for something else.

"I will not have breakfast. I ate at the Dai Family's house, and I am satisfied now." Nero spoke in a serious tone, so he quickly closed the door before being hara.s.sed by that stupid girl.

"Aww, he must be timid. I prefer it that way because when he is mine, I will have no problem keeping him away from other women." Xun Lan sighed and turned to leave, but she was happy that Nero seemed shy. She didn't think for a moment that he was not attracted to her, who was such a beautiful young woman.

"Wait! What does he mean? Did he eat at the Dai Family house? He didn't go there to kill? But did he snack after killing more than half of them?" Xun Lan stopped thinking about romantic fantasies when she remembered what Nero said then left with many doubts in mind.

"If it were your Little Fox, you would be very pleased to accept her help, right?" Sarah asked in a sarcastic tone.

"It depends on whether you would be angry or not." Nero was sincere because he didn't want to lie. Since the first time he saw Marie, he would love to eat her as breakfast or anytime.

"Yes! I would be angry!" It didn't take Sarah even half a second to make her point clear.

"So, what am I going to do while you have no physical body? Even you must be tired of watching what I do in the bath." Nero knew that Sarah watched him in the bath even though she didn't admit it.

"I do not know what you're talking about! Just focus on getting strong and stay away from those ears!!" Sarah was embarra.s.sed to be discovered so easily, but she was stubborn and would never admit it.

"But, I'm not even thinking about any ears!!" He was also stubborn and would not admit that he thought much about Marie's fluffy ears.

So Nero and Sarah were silent. Ten minutes later Nero chose to go to the d.a.m.n breakfast just to get out of that tense atmosphere.

"Aren't you going with your sister?" Xun He asked his son because he worried about Xun Feng staying in Abun and regretting not having had good adventures with Xun Lan in the Black Sword Sect.

Xiong Zhelan planned to take two people as a disciple. He was sure that Xun Lan and Dai Zhi would be the right choice, but now he didn't want to have anything to do with the Dai Family to avoid having problems with Nero.

So he had to choose someone else or just stay with Xun Lan. He understood that Nero thinks well of the Xun Family even though they were not great friends. And he also became very close friends with Xun He, so taking the Xun siblings wouldn't be too bad even if Xun Feng wasn't very talented.

"I already made up my mind, dad. I am fine here, and I have no ambition to become super strong or live great adventures. Just living here with you is good enough for me." Xun Feng made his point clear.

Xun Feng liked the simple things in life. He was a cultivator to help protect his family, but he had no big ambitions, so he was happy to live in a small land like Abun. He also knew that his sister would be fine without him with the protection of Xiong Zhelan, so it was better to continue here with his father.

"I understand. If that's how you want it, I promise that I won't talk about it anymore. It's not like I hate my son to want to send him away." Xun He wanted the best for his children, but if Xun Feng will be happier here with him, it's okay. He is glad to have his son by his side.

"Ah, Nero! Good Morning." Xiong Zhelan was the first to notice Nero entering the door as he had the sense of a Martial Warrior.

"I'm not hungry. I just came here to find out what time we will be leaving." Nero went straight to the point. They had already decided everything the day before about the journey. They thought it would be better to leave the city in the morning to be able to camp in a place in the mountains that Xiong Zhelan knew.

"Ah, yes. We will finish breakfast and next prepare to go." Xiong Zhelan wanted to give Xun Lan a good breakfast and time to say goodbye to her father and family before they left.

"Well, I don't have any bags to pack because all I have are these clothes that Zhu Tai gave me." Nero was pleased with the new clothes that were washed by the maids after the b.l.o.o.d.y fight against the Dai Family.

"I have to thank you again, Zhu Tai. These clothes are excellent." Nero gave his sincere thanks to Zhu Tai for the clothes, but he only nodded because he knew the clothes were from Xiong Zhelan and who knows where he found them.

"Just having a set of clothes is not good. I have a few sets left over in that same style so you can keep them as I don't even use them." Xiong Zhelan had some sets of these clothes because he took them from an a.s.sa.s.sin he killed. He thought the clothes were pretty sinister all in black with golden ornaments, but he wouldn't say that to Nero because it was simpler just to give the clothes.

There were many compartment artifacts like bags, backpacks, boxes, and even jewelry that were made with concentrated Qi and various rare materials so that they could have an interdimensional s.p.a.ce to store multiple things without taking up much s.p.a.ce.

An example of these compartment artifacts was magic backpacks with a few feet of s.p.a.ce as Xiong Zhelan had. Other wealthier and more powerful people could have rings with more than hundreds of meters of s.p.a.ce. But Nero had the Red World from Dark Soul Stone, which had s.p.a.ce to fit even small planets.

Abun's people were inferior in Qi resources, so Xun Family could not give Xun Lan a magic backpack but a common one but very well made. Xiong Zhelan also didn't have much s.p.a.ce in his magic backpack, so everyone would end up carrying several backpacks and bags.

After several explanations of what the journey to the Black Sword Sect would be like, everyone had to go prepare clothes, equipment, camping stuff, and food.

Nero received two sets of black clothing, including boots and a large backpack. He would also carry a bag with supplies, just like Zhu Tai and Xiong Zhelan. Xun Lan would only carry her big backpack because it was full of women's things.

When everything was almost ready, Nero thought about doing one last thing before they left.

"I will say goodbye to Marie. Even though she is sleeping, I think it would be good to say goodbye as I don't know if I will see her again. Like talking to someone asleep can be awkward, but I think they must hear something or...I'll be right back!"

Nero wanted to see Marie before leaving, but when he spoke of saying goodbye, Sarah started saying things about ears in his mind, so he fumbled with the words and ended up trying to explain the situation to Xiong Zhelan's group who was confused.

"He likes her so much that he even fumbles." Xun He couldn't help but comment and earning a frown from his daughter.

"Little Fox, we don't talk much or know anything about each other. But I'm sure that in any case, we would be great friends." Nero sadly whispered as he sat on the edge of Marie's bed.

He was sad to leave before she woke up, and they could at least talk a little. Things were a mess starting in the forest, and Nero never imagined that he would be so connected to someone he had never seen before.

Perhaps it is because the elves, allies of the vampires on Earth, died, and he was unable to do anything to help them. Now he feels guilty not only for his family and race but also for the other non-humans on Earth who have suffered the same tragic fate.

After taking revenge by killing all humans on Earth, Nero thought he would feel better, but revenge did not bring as much peace as he thought. When he arrived in this new world and saw a non-human being beaten by humans, he again felt that pain of being unable to protect the people he loved.

Nero did not know if he would meet Marie again as destiny is uncertain and full of surprises. Still, he was already very happy to be able to help her. The feeling of protecting someone brought the peace that revenge could never bring.

It made him think about Sarah's situation. She did not tell the whole story, but it was she made it clear that she did not know if her family or clan were all dead because when she ran away, only her father had suffered fatal injuries. So Nero really wanted to become stronger so that one day he could help her discover everything that happened and maybe save people dear to her.

This new way of thinking not about killing but protecting made Nero feel that life could still be good, and he would always be grateful to Marie, who even for a coincidence of destiny showed him.

"You can touch it. But just this once!" Sarah saw Nero's sad look and knew that he was unhappy about the farewell. She understood how Marie had impacted his life and was grateful to Marie too as she liked Nero over protective more than Nero cold-blooded killer.

Of course, Nero would still kill many because to protect those he loves in a world where strength is everything he would have to kill the strong to protect the weak. Marie's case is the perfect example because he didn't hesitate to kill so many of the Dai Family for having done harm to her.

"Do you not mind?" Nero knew that Sarah was fighting with her jealousy to let him touch those dreamed cute ears. He couldn't be more grateful, but he still had to make sure it didn't cause him any future problems.

"It's all right. I will let that one pa.s.s." Of course, Sarah did not want to see Nero being intimate with another woman. Still, she knew it would take hundreds of years to have a new physical body, so she was already preparing to accept that Nero would have to be intimate with other women until she could be the only one.

"Sorry, Marie, for not being able to get your approval before doing this, but I don't know if I would have another chance in life." Nero wouldn't ask Sarah a second time and apologized to Marie for not having her approval while moving his hand slowly to those cute ears.

"Aww, what an adorable Little Fox!" Nero couldn't help but exclaim when he put his hand close to Marie's head, and her ears slightly trembled as if she knew what was going to happen.

"Mm, it's so cute and fluffy! I could pat it forever."

Nero was sure it would be great to touch Marie's ears, but when the time came, it felt better than he could have dreamed. It was so good that he doesn't know how long he was playing, but when he took his hand off Marie's ears, a fragrance stayed on his hand for a long time after. A perfume that he loved!

Even asleep, Marie would never forget those pats and would do anything to feel that sensation again. She will be one of the first people to enter a war for pats. One that would not be b.l.o.o.d.y but definitely challenging and full of powerful opponents.
