A Tale of Chase and Love s1

Long Ren sat beside the bed and touched her forehead. He quickly retracted his hand due to the hotness.

Gosh! She really needs his help now. He’ll now do her another big favor of giving her his internal energy for free. If it were other masters how thankful they’d be!

But as for this one here, it’s better not to tell her because she will not praise him. She won’t even give him a little freedom. She’d only seek for pearls that came from his precious tears. The annoying part is that she’d spend them all in the name of charity and goodwill.

Before they came to this house, she asked him to stop mid-way so she could buy some snacks. After buying, she threw a pearl at the old lady when no one except him was looking and then ran off back to the carriage they hired.

He must be the most miserable pet in the whole continent. She hasn’t given him anything but heartaches, headaches, pain, and sorrow. He just wanna go back to his holy lair. Why is it so hard?

Why did his grandpa tell him to stay with her? Let him be in peace!

Long Ren sighed as he got up from the seat beside the bed and sat on the bare floor in a meditative pose. He placed his two hands on his knees and closed his eyes. He then began to mutter some inaudible words for 9 seconds.

After that, he began to levitate in mid-air while still in a meditative pose. His hair and clothes fluttered even when there was no wind and his hands radiated white light. It did not take long for him to open his eyes which were now dark red in color and stretched out his hands towards Theresa.

Immediately white light from his hand which was internal energy, poured into Theresa’s forehead.

Theresa who was still shivering a while ago immediately calmed down. But Long Ren did not stop as he intensified pouring of his magical energy into her.

When she was more stable, he retracted one of his hands and then stretched it again. This time it wasn’t his internal energy that poured out. It was a low-grade green fire that was emitting heat

He fused it with his internal energy and it resulted in a blast. Long Ren fell down and hit the ground head first, resulting in his bleeding from the head.

He also spat out blood in the process and then fainted. There however was still a weird ball hovering in the air. It was a combination of internal energy and the low-grade green fire which had successfully merged.

It was the size of a small football and shined brilliantly. After hovering for 5 seconds in mid-air, the ball of light entered Theresa’s forehead, making her body glow for a while before returning to normal.

Theresa’s body temperature had finally returned to its normal state. It would not be long before she woke up.

Long Ren, however, was in a critical state, blood flowing from his mouth, nose, and eyes.

5 minutes later.

Theresa opened her eyes weakly.

Gosh! What happened while she was asleep? She felt sore all over.

Where is Long Ren? Did he come in here while she was asleep? All these and many more questions flooded into her head. She rubbed her neck and yawned lazily.

Yeah! There really are no wall clocks or wristwatches to tell the time here. Whatever! She just needs to see Ren. He needs to buy his cute mistress something to eat.

Man! Her poor stomach is so empty. She stretched her body and yawned again before putting her feet down on the bare floor.

She looked down to see Ren lying on the floor blood flowing out of his mouth and eyes. His hair is now in a mess but despite that, he still looked handsome.

Unfortunately, He’s not human. Even if he were human, Theresa wouldn’t like him. Here was her money bank lying on the floor looking so miserable!

“Ren!” she yelled as she ran to him and knelt down by his side.

“Ren, wake up. You can’t leave me here. Wake up!” she yelled further as she shook him resulting in his vomiting more blood startling Theresa.

What should she do now?

Long Ren is vomiting more blood and any further, she’d faint. If it were back on earth, all she needed to do was call the ambulance but here in this so-called Luo Ye, there are no phones.

She doesn’t even know anyone around here say less of a doctor. Moreover, Ren is a spiritual beast. What kind of doctor would he need? A vertinary doctor? Or a regular doctor?

She pulled her hair in frustration and grunted loudly. This pet! What did he do that made him end up like this? How the heck was she gonna get him treated?

While she was thinking of what to do, she did not know that her wrist was glowing a yellow light and also Ren’s eyelashes fluttered a bit and one of his fingers moved.

She just kept panicking and when she finally decided to run out for help, she heard a faint chuckle. She turned around to see Ren who had just opened his eyes, chuckling weakly.

“So mistress is actually a softie on the inside. I am glad” said Ren with a smile.

“You… I am no softie. You evil pet. How should I punish you?” Theresa was not happy that she was caught red-handed by this extortioner.

She quickly got to her feet and ran out of the room pouting. Ren smiled at her silliness.

“Mistress, time for you to suffer” he muttered and winked.

********

Theresa was sulking at the backyard. She has punched her image to pieces right in front of that mischievous pet.

What to do now? She can’t even face him again. No! It’s better to tell him to return to his fox appearance. It will be less embarrassing. He can’t talk in his fox form right.

Theresa immediately rose up from the chair she was sitting on and headed back inside the house towards her room. On getting there, she saw him laying on the soft bed that she loved.

“You… how dare you,” she asked, her chest heaving up and down. ‘Theresa he’s just a pet. Do not get angry do not get angry’. she tried calming herself.

“Get out now” she barked. But on the contrary, Long Ren became teary-eyed giving her goosebumps.

“Mistress, this afternoon we mated why is it you’re rejecting me now? What did I do to hurt you?” Ren asked.

This question was nasty to Theresa’s ears.

“You…” she rushed to him and nearly pushed him out of the bed.

‘What the heck? He’s so light! Is this still a human and not a piece of paper?’ Theresa couldn’t believe that Ren was lighter than her by a lot more kg.

Just look at him! It’s obvious he has muscles and real biceps.

One look at him… he should at least weigh 50kg. But this one here must weigh 18kg.

This is an insult to her. No, she must d something.

From now on she’d make sure he eats 7 times a day until he loses the packs he acquired. She was still lost in her thoughts when she felt something wet and smelly on her head.

“What’s this?” she muttered holding her nose. She turned to look at a smiling Ren. She saw that he was holding a bowl containing urine.

“My love, do you like it. This is the wine of love,” said Ren.

Immediately, she understood what he did. He poured her, his mistress his urine.

Urine! Seriously?

“Ren, slap your self very hard 80 times” she commanded before leaving the room for the pool in the bathroom. This pet of hers deserves death a thousand no a million times.

Ren had to obey though he was very unwilling.

“Just wait my dear mistress. I will get more opportunities to anger you and you won’t be able to do anything about it. As for my face that you made me hit today, I’ll make you pull off all your hair in frustration.” Ren vowed as he felt a force that compelled him to start slapping himself very hard.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

6 minutes later, he was almost done with slapping himself when he received a command telepathically from Theresa asking him to crab walk. Ren was confused.

He asked her what was crab walk telepathically but all he received as an answer was that he should place 20 books on this belly after strapping something called a teddy bear to his back.

After he’s done that, he should do push-ups and ride something she called a motorcycle. These were all strange terms to him.

Why does he need to tie a live bear called teddy to his back while placing 20 books on his belly? What are push-ups and what does he need to push-up? What the heck is even a motorcycle? How will he get one to ride? How long must he do each of these things.?

As if on cue, he heard Theresa reply to him telepathically: “You must do each of these for an hour. They say exercise is good for the body. I myself I’m also exercising so do your part. I’d like to see you ‘stronger’ than before.”

Hearing this, Ren groaned loudly. This mistress of his! Why must she ruin everything for him?

Now he had to go find all the needed stuff fast and start before he receives a backlash in his cultivation.

‘Mistress, just you wait!’ he muttered under his breath.
