The Imprisoned Dragon - Blade, Dan Heng IL

31. Maybe For All Eternity

"So this is what you've been doing in this month"

"Indeed, indeed, Elves and Dragons seems to be on Aresta's side, but I am still waiting for the other countries replies. the decision will be taken in my city."

"Seems Lord Fenir moved faster than expected"

"I would have moved faster if I knew he was the Imbibitor earlier. Umi told me everything when he got called by the Emperor... I had to open communication with so many countries ugh..."

"Is the Emperor aware of Dan Heng's presence?"

"I am not sure.. Umi should be back to Aresta. He's been called to be present at the Emperor's Palace... He's spying on them, or at least that's what I am seeing for now"

"Seems we're arrived in the city, we may continue later"

Dan Heng slowly opened his blue eyes, confused by all those voices. He noticed himself laying on a carriage seat, his face was laying on someone's lap. He did recognized Blade's fabric and he quickly turned a little to notice Blade talking with Aranvar and Fenir inside the carriage.

Dan Heng followed Blade's hand that was caressing his hair without even looking at him. He smiled warmly, feeling his heart at peace and in that moment Blade looked like he felt that smile. He lowered a little his stare and noticed the immortal "You're finally awake, you've slept so much, like always"

Dan Heng's smile became an innocent one "Uhm.. Sorry" he did pout a little to then lift himself to get off Blade's lap, but the swordman's hand laid on his chest and pushed him back on his lap

"You're still recovering, lay down, we're almost at Fenir's manor" Blade said with a neutral tone, trying not to let go a little smile as he noticed the Imbibitor looking confused, he was adorable.

"It's fine, Imbibitor! This is so amusing, Blade being human" Fenir showed an evil smile towards the swordman, who sighed heavily "I wonder how many things have changed in a month, did I miss anything?" he asked to then flinch as he noticed the elves almost destroying the glass of the carriage

"HE'S AWAKE" Zeno shouted riding a horse next to the carriage "GUYS!"

"ALYNE!" Fey cried as he was literally pushing his face against the glass like it was a mop "I THOUGHT YOU WANTED TO ASCEND TO HEAVENS WITHOUT SAYING GOODBYE, I EVEN WROTE A SONG ABOUT OUR NOT-SO-GOODBYE"

"You don't really want to hear it tho" Volre said to then push Fey away from the glass and clear his throat "ALYNEEE!" he cried out

The elves looked at Dan Heng smiling warmly at them to then move a little their stare, noticing Blade's red eyes glowing with an awful malicious aura around him.

"Move, I am the Captain!" Evias jumped on Zeno's horse to then move their faces away from the carriage's glass "Dan Heng! I was with Blade! Told you I would have protected you, my little brother!" he posed to then almost fall from the horse, but still in a fabulous way "You can thank me later, maybe with a love blessing" he winked with stars behind him

"Damn clowns..." Blade's lips twitched as he moved a little, keeping Dan Heng on his lap, till he reached the curtains of the carriage and closed them to avoid the Elves to keep looking at them.

Dan Heng took that moment to lift himself up, under Blade's annoyed stare, to look at Fenir and Aranvar "Thank you... I apologise for the mess"

Fenir crossed his legs as he was playing with a red string of his own mana "Oh?" the Lord laid the chin on the palm "Mess? You mean the heavy rain of three days?"

"I wonder how was it possible.." Aranvar was in his beautiful white and golden kimono, and his silver hair were tied in a long tail. Fenir looked at the King of Dragons feeling amused as it was basically the first time he would speak in person with him "You were sealed but you released so much power"
