Chapter 337 - Quack-Ception (2/2)
The Emperor nodded, he still did not understand what was happening, but from Doctor Lou's words, he could guess that the host - the brat that seemed to be in control of his body was now gone. or rather he now had his body. He truly did not understand, but first of all, he introduced himself, ”I am the Long Emperor.”
Doctor Lou snorted, ”No, you're not.”
The Emperor raised his eyebrows, ”Yes, I am, we have met, remember?...” He could mention knowing about the old man being his Voice, but he had not forgotten the old man's warning about this knowledge bringing harm to Lei Xing. So he held his tongue and instead said, ”Those two that were just in here, one was my wife, my Empress, Xing er'...along with my brother.” He finished with a frown as it occurred to him that those two could presently be together.
”Empress?” Doctor Lou asked, blinking at him with even more confusion, ”Xing Xing?”
”Yes.”
”And your brother is...?” Doctor Lou asked, looking even more confused.
”Shan....the one that was with her.” The Emperor said with a hint or more of resentment
{...Remember, this is just a dream..}
The Emperor let out a breath as he repeated that thought in his head, trying to purge his thoughts. Doctor Lou scrutinized him and then cautiously walked over, drawing the Emperor's attention back to the scene. Doctor Lou stopped in front of him again and went to poke him again and just like last time, he was still air.
Doctor Lou knit his brows and then put his hands in his sleeves and suspiciously looked up at the Emperor, ”So you say you're the Dragon Emperor?”
**(Long means Dragon...so translated, it's Dragon country)**
”Yes... ”Getting the sense that the old man was being strange, the Emperor felt the need to add, ”We've met before. I recognize you, you're that Doctor Lou, aren't you? Xing e- Xing Xing's friend...”
Doctor Lou cluelessly scratched his head as he mumbled, ”Well, I am a Lou and Xing Xing - well, I guess we are friends... of sorts, even if she is a brat... but doctor -? Well...I do like the sound of it, sounds important. Hmmm, I can accept it, I am THE Doctor Lou!” He announced with a resolute nod at the Emperor, who looked at him with confused suspicion.
”What did you say your name was again?” Doctor Lou asked looking up at the Emperor with a deep scrutinizing gaze that made the Emperor uncomfortable.
”I didn't say...” The Emperor suspiciously responded, not quite sure what to make of the old man's behavior but still, he answered, ”It's Jun Kai...”
Doctor Lou's eyes went wide and then he narrowed his eyes and stroked his beard as he nodded and quietly said, ”Ahh, so you're not the Dragon Emperor, but the place where you are Emperor is called Dragon, therefore you are the Dragon Emperor Kai... I see.” He finished, stroking his beard and nodding.
**(Long means Dragon)**
”Yes...” The Emperor tentatively confirmed with a frown as he scrutinized this strange old man who did not seem to be all there upstairs.
Doctor Lou then suddenly grabbed one of the Emperor's hands, the Emperor instinctively wrenched his arm back but the old man's grasp was too strong. He did not even seem to notice the resistance as he brought the Emperor's wrist up to his eye level and squinted at his empty wrist, ”Ah... Now it all makes sense~”
”What does?” The Emperor asked with knit eyebrows as he looked down at the strange old man.
Doctor Lou looked up at him with a smile, ”Who knows?” He said and released the Emperor's wrist and then sauntered off with a chuckle and plopped back down on the grass, facing the perplexed Emperor, ”So Xiao Kai who has Xing Xing as his Empress and apparently -” He snorted, ”Shan as -” Snorted again, ” - brother..” He managed and then broke out in a full laugh, even holding his stomach as he laughed.
The Emperor was naturally not amused and frowned at the old man. Doctor Lou promptly cleared his throat and put on a serious expression, ”...Now come, tell me about yourself~” He said with a somewhat excited look on his face.
