Dan Heng opened his eyes and smiled once he noticed the lovely sun rising. He couldn't help but wishing already to stand up and get on the balcony to let some fresh air get in.

But he froze once he felt some weight on his legs. His eyes opened up as he noticed Blade's body in an awful position, thehead was on his lap as the legs were still laying like how he was sitting the night.

He blushed a little, asking himself what happened as the last thing he did recall was him crying on his chest..

"Oh my... This is..." Dan Heng tried to keep himself to then raise his eyebrow, surprised to actually see for the first time Blade sleeping as it was always the other way around.

He was probably tired as well.

Tired of the city.

And people.

Dan Heng couldn't help but leaning towards Blade's face and finally have the opportunity to look at it without him threathing to kill. He smiled as he noticed how the swordman was sleeping peacefully on his lap.

For the first time, he saw Blade sleeping with his guard totally down.

He laid a hand on his cheeks to move some strands of his black hair and admire better his face, but Blade grabbed his hand and opened his eyes.

"What were you trying to do?" Blade's eyes locked on his to then notice the situation and stand up from the bed, feeling his body totally destroyed from the position.

"I... wanted to wake you up" Dan Heng said as Blade was fixing his shirt looking like a prince in that moment "What happened?"

"You fell asleep on me.. then I did push you and you didn't even wake up" Blade coughed as he actually didn't want to be totally honest about how he did lay him carefully on the bed "Then I... I think... I fell asleep"

"You're usually awake earlier than me, I guess you were really tired" Dan Heng smiled to then tilt his head "Thank you, Blade"

Blade crossed his arms to then sigh "Get ready, we're going to get my uppercoat and leave, we're going to avoid the roads, this means we will have to be careful as the outer lands have many unexplored areas nobody goes because dangerous" he explained as Dan Heng was still yawning and looking out the balcony like he was speaking something light

"The day is amazing, feels like a fresh spring is coming soon" He looked at Blade who raised his eyebrow "Oh... yes, got it!"

"I am sure you did" said ironically, to then move towards the door "Oh by the way... Fix your... clothes, you're an immortal" he said to then leave the room.

Dan Heng tilted his head confused to then look how messy his clothes were. He cleared his throat as he noticed the uppercoat almost showing half of his arms and the the turtle neck with the opening in the middle of his chest was a little moved, showing almost a side of it..

Once the two met again, they proceed to go to the tailor, who luckily had the uppercoat ready. Blade was back with his usual clothes and Dan Heng almost did pout as he didn't mind the swordman having the silk white shirt.

"Are you ready for this journey?" Blade asked the dragon to then lay a finger on his nose like he was a kid "No complains, no more questions about my past, if we meet people, do not be open and do not let them touch you. No pouting and no sounds when I am focus"

Dan Heng's eyes crossed for a moment as he was looking at the finger on his nose. He then pout and Blade sighed as he was laying his hands on the hips.

"You're already not respecting my rules and we didn't even start the journey" he smiled insanely "I think I won't be able to reach the dragons' territory without losing my sanity completely"
