Imbeciles! Fools! And Idiots

The Dervish Of Self-sacrifice

[A/N😻: Nice cosplay! Very interesting... I edited this part... Put in better words and sentence... I honestly could have made this chapter longer but I rather not explore the uncharted waters of some characters personality just yet.]

"Jia Chong, Why do you need my help?" Asked the tall woman who sat down on her bed of white silk.

"You are the only person that can die and nothing would change in the time line." He replied grinning. This is the power of historically irrelevant characters or ocs! They can be used for things that could possibly kill them.

"What would my death serve?" Qi requested. She couldn't believe Lord Sima Shi agreed to Jia Chong's request.

"He originally wanted me to kill you but I realized that was the way Zhong Hui planned to dispose of me. We came up with a better plan: To negotiate with a vampire about her activities. I will give you to vampires as exchange for Okuni [whom Zhong Hui wants to kill.] herself but before that you must become my thrall so I can see through your eyes and speak to you." He explained. He wasn't telling her the whole truth of ill intentions or the downside of becoming a puppet.

Faced with little choice, Qi closed her eyes and came upon a conclusion; "If this must be done... I will do this for the ones I love." She untied the collar of her robe causing the black fabric to fall to her slender shoulders and her cleavage, Qi never thought of ever getting this close to anyone, especially the murderous demon that is Jia Chong. "Hurry up, I don't have all night."

Jia Chong was surprised she agreed so easily to his plan. She didn't fear death and she would willingly become a vampire's pawn. She was unbelievably brave or very stupid. A quiet chuckle passed by his lips. He lifted her delicate chin up with his pale hand. Her long black hair fell back and He whispered in her ear, "Open your eyes."

Qi did as she was told. Her violet gaze was met with his hypnotic cyan eyes. "What are you going to do to me?"

"What did you think I was going to do to you?" He chargrined ever so persistent in his attempts to unnerve her.

"I assume that really doesn't matter anymore... You already know."

He could hear the racing beat of Qi's strong heart from inside her imposing bosom. Blood pinked her cheeks and her soft skin. She was alive. Burning from the poison started inside his chest again. Damn, That black mailing bastard!

Qi sat trembling. Her hands on her lap, fearful of what was to come next. Only looking up to the pale figure of Jia Chong with her grayish purple eyes. She waited for him to start.

"There is nothing to fear from me, Qi." Mused his smooth voice.

"That is an obvious lie, Jia Chong." She repelled not budging.

"This will not hurt," He clutched her fulsome bosom with those dirty hands of his. Trying to ensure her fury.

"JIA CHONG! I will geld you!" She aimed to grapple him with her right hand. But, Yes, This was only a way to mislead her.

Shi shuddered as he heard the scream of Qi. He understood that they needed her as the distraction to stop the evil mistress Okuni who has been terrorizing the city and countryside, killing regional officials, peasants and tempting to steal handsome men. This came at a great price.

"My son... You fool! Now you don't have someone to stand in front of you as an arrow flies by your head!" The ghost of Sima Yi ridiculed his son.

"Father would call me an imbecile... That is what I am." He slouched down over his desk.

"At least you are self aware." Yi admitted.

"Please forgive me," Shi teared up.

🌸

He latched on to her. Consuming Qi's blood. She moaned softly in the vampire's embrace. Her  black hair contrasting against the pearl white of her bed. He stopped and drew his own blood. Forcing the red into Qi's mouth. She willingly drank that awful tasting blood.

Many hours later, Qi woke up with a horrible head ache. Everything seemed to pulse to her sight. Her whole body felt weak and fatigued from the loss of blood. She struggled to find the strength to get upon her feet and to the door.

Whispering took place inside her head. A voice who told her to come.

Zhong Hui sat at his desk ignores the ramblings of Zhuge Dan whom he shared an office with.

"I cannot believe that there are Vampires terrorizing helpless peasants! They must be hunted down!" He couldn't give a wedding dress to peasant Dong Long because someone drained his daughter of her blood!

"Oh... Yes, the Vampires are said to have drained peasants of their blood." Zhong Hui said nonchalantly, dipping his paintbrush in a ink well with his common yet over used hand gesture.

"Their undead blood will be spilled!" Zhuge Dan bellowed full of his own righteous indignation.

Wang Yuanji barged into the office. "I know WHAT you are up to! Zhong Hui!" She slammed her hands on his desktop. The ink pot fell over and poured over his scroll like rivers.

"What am I doing?" He requested her to remind him.

Wang Yuan Ji flashed Zhuge Dan a 'leave now' look. "Oh, excuse me." Zhuge Dan said closing the door behind him.

"You are the one who killed the peasants! You drained those peasants and are blaming the Vampires!" She exposed.

"How could you possibly know how vampires feed?" Hui asked Yuanji.

"I know all about vampires! Vampires suck up blood into their own bodies! Not drain someone into a total mess upon the floor! Plus, Vampires only need at least two feedings a week." She supported her claim.

"You inspected the bodies... Someone must have told you about my plans... Was it Jia Chong?" Zhong Hui sat back in his chair and rested his feet on his desk.

"Indeed, It was him."

'That blood sucking prick!' Zhong Hui thought to himself, "Why would Jia Chong tell you? Wang Yuanji?"

"No, Jia Chong told Zhao who told me and he told his older brother who told the hobo living in the garden shed... Be grateful he didn't tell his mom." Chunhua would discipline Hui in unspeakable ways that can be thought of but never spoken of or heard. She disciplined him once behind the scenes after he was defeated by Yi and Chunhua in hypothetical mode. Hui never wanted to experience that again!

Chunhua was like the infernal matron of sadistic discipline! Though the only person she would outright punish was Sima Yi.
