Chapter 5: Love and Lust

The red-light district is crowded with people, girls with round breasts full of life and buttocks are trying to shake back and forth to attract passersby. Hundreds of girls with skimpy clothes to show off every line of their body, everyone looked at each guest on the street with an inviting look.

“Is it safe?” A young looking young man, he timidly walked to a shack with a shack, he kept looking around and maybe he was scared too.

"Young men!" A person with a fiery body with a round chest can be the size of a watermelon. She saw that the young man also smiled slightly, "Are you afraid that your wife at home will know that you are here? Don’t worry, we have the best service with the most beautiful ladies.”

“My wife is pregnant. I can't have sex with her…”

“Everyone here wants to take care of their own needs so no need to worry, you did nothing wrong.” The girl spoke up, then lightly touched the young man's face with her hand.

The girl brought the young man in, choosing for him a girl with a slightly thin body but extremely beautiful. The two happily entered the prepared room. The girl who followed the two figures also smiled slightly. She has owned this place for a long time, all kinds of people have met but the shy and afraid of wives like that young man is also a bit strange.

“Men are equally important in their desires. The more they can't have something in this world, the more they want it, trivial and bland." The girl took a long drag and then continued out the door to wait to see who the next guest was.

“Humans are less important to lust than greed, Phantom. It's a surprise, isn't it?"

An old man came over, his body covered with scars, he smiled at the girl with a strange smile and was about to go inside.

“This place does not welcome demons!” Phantom stopped him with his hand, then lowered his head and whispered to the old man, "Especially a great demon king like you."

“The place where desire arises is where greed arises. We're all demons that absorb spiritual energies like this to survive, aren't we? Phantom, you are the person I respect the most in ten thousand years, and also the most powerful female demon king of the seven great demon kings. Do you still expect that Leo to marry you?”

“Don't use those words to insult me, sir. I won't be swayed by those cheap words." Phantom smiled smugly, looking away so as not to focus on the old man.

The old man straightened up, he smiled, and for a moment he turned into a young man with a very attractive face. He reached out to touch Phantom's delicate face and slowly stroked each feature of her face.

“You've always been the one to get my attention, Phantom. From the way we talk to the behavior that is a bit rude, but I am extremely interested. Dear Phantom! Tonight you are mine…”

The boy picked up Phantom and kissed her on the lips with a passionate kiss. Phantom didn't seem to resist either, she naturally ran her hand over the man's attractive parts, then suddenly she stopped, her face changing.

"Killing humans again?!"

“Phantom, these things are worth nothing, they make us stronger to satisfy your lust. Don't worry, these dirty things won't affect your strength." The boy spoke softly.

“Of course it doesn't matter! But…” Phantom said exasperatedly, “You should know what I hate the most. The smell of power and cheap greed, if you're here for me, don't do such despicable things."

"Of course Phantom, there won't be a next time!"

"You don't seem to like Dr. Brown very much, do you?"

Luna looked over at Will, who was busy with papers on his desk and reports of recent surgeries. Luna didn't say another word, she quietly pushed the wheelchair towards the window. This is the first time Luna has been to Will's room, and the first time she has used her wheelchair to go to her brother's room.

It was ten o'clock at night, Will had finished his shift early, but because Luna was still being treated at the hospital, Will rarely came home, he mainly stayed at the hospital to be ready to study more difficult cases.

"Do you like him?" Will didn't look at Luna's face, just asked her.

"Not available! It's just that Dr. Brown is my primary care physician, he's also very nice. Take very good care of me. Why can't he treat me but someone else. I think I need an explanation.” Luna justifies.

“Look at this!”

Will showed Luna a photo on the computer. It was a photograph of the human brain, in which there was a large black mark. Luna didn't understand why Will gave this picture to her, she looked at him with puzzled eyes.

“The bruise here is a blood clot sticking to the wall of the brain. This large blood mass presses on nerves in the hippocampus, causing all human memories to be lost. If it's all about simply losing memories, then there's nothing to talk about. However, if this blood stain is suddenly broken, the blood pressure makes the nerves in the brain unbearable, the patient can die at any time." Will explained.

“But…but what does this mean?”

“This is a CT scan taken from your brain three days ago. Your hematoma is getting bigger and if not removed in time it will rupture due to the pressure inside the brain wall.” Will sighed, he slowly explained, “It's not that I hate Dr. Brown but he's too young to handle such a difficult case. Your health condition has improved well but not enough to be able to withstand this major surgery. Luna, all I'm doing is wanting you to continue living."

Luna was silent, she began to understand Will's anxiety. Feeling that she had just escaped death three months ago and now that she had once again stepped foot in death, Luna felt herself extremely brave. She looked at the hematoma and found out why the previous memories were gone. That's fine, she can live a new life but now her life must be measured from day to day and even from moment to moment because most likely at some moment in a day, when she feels cheerful and happy, the hematoma in her brain will burst and she will immediately depart from the world.

“I want to be discharged from hospital!” Luna said.

“But your health…” Will looked worriedly at his sister.

“Will, I understand your concern. Three months ago you had to deal with the loss of me, and now it is very likely that you will lose me again. But Will, life is unpredictable, maybe tomorrow the blood clot in my head will burst and I will die, or when I leave this hospital room, the blood clot will also burst. So, I don't want my new life to be boring at the hospital. I want to go to many places, write many new books, and experience things with my loved ones that I have never experienced before. Time for me now is like a treasure and don't try too hard, just cherish what is happening in front of our eyes. "

Will stood up, he hugged Luna, he knew once she found out she would be in pain but he couldn't help it. Luna has her life and he can't force her to follow the rules he has to set for her protection. He looked at Luna, Will's eyes were a little sad, he knew what she had to go through and how much she had to suffer. If he can live again, he just wants Luna to be happy and cheerful forever.

A person's life must go through four things: birth, old age, illness, and death. However, that was not the case for a demon lord like Leo. Leo sits on a high chair, is a demon with overwhelming power and dominates tens of thousands of other demons, but Leo has never felt happy. He used to think that hatred gives him great strength that is what makes him happy until he meets a girl, a girl who has the ability to turn him from a fierce demon. become a human being in the truest sense of the word.

“Run…” Leo growled, trying to drive the girl away.

“No, if you want to run, run together! There are so many of them, you're injured again, I won't let you stay here!" The girl worried, pulling Leo's hand towards hers so she could lift him up.

“I am the great demon king, also the most powerful of the great demon lords. They won't be able to harm me. Quickly run away!” Leo pushed the girl's hand away from his.

“You should know that whether you are a great demon king or an ordinary person, I will go with you. You know I won't leave you alone!"

Leo smiled, it was the first time that he felt that his position was really important in a person's heart. Leo had signed many contracts and watched people, one by one, die because of the contract. Humans will never give up their hatred but with that girl it was completely different. Leo gradually realized that he was not alone, but on his long journey, there were footprints of that girl.

“Everything is done, master!” Python walked in, and he started reporting important information to Leo.

"Very well, let's go. The contract has been signed successfully!”

At the villa in the south of the city, the owner Thomas was smoking a cigar, on the table there were a lot of dollar bills with a denomination of 100 dollars. From time to time Thomas picked up a dollar bill from the ground and began to light his cigarette. He was engrossed in the smoke from his cigar when suddenly a cold wind blew. The wind made Thomas shiver. He stood up, about to get his coat, when he stepped on a dollar bill at his feet. The dollar bill was on the brick floor so it was quite slippery, causing him to fall forward, his head hitting the statue placed in the middle of the house.

Thomas didn't know how long he had been unconscious, but by the time he regained consciousness, his head was in severe pain. He touched his head with his hand and discovered that there was a blood stain, the impact earlier was quite strong, causing Thomas's head to bleed. He staggered to his feet when he vaguely saw a foot in front of him. Feet are muddy and wet with water.

"Get me a bandage to stop the bleeding." Thomas ordered the person in front of him.

“Tom…Don't you recognize me?” That person suddenly spoke up, his voice murky like from hell.

A cold wind suddenly blew, causing the wound on Thomas's head to hurt so much, he used his hand to hold his head and groaned softly for a few times.

“Tom, when I was lying in the rain, I was cold and in pain. You were in the car, weren't you?"

“Who are you?” Thomas whispered, he tried to raise his face to look but couldn't, the pain made him look down.

“I begged you for help but you didn't care about me anymore. The promise that you made to me, to only marry me for the rest of your life, you have also forgotten, right? Tom, I really love you but in exchange for a tragic death at such a young age. What do I get from this love?

"Edga?" Thomas said, almost fainting, “How is that possible? Are you already dead?"

“Yes, Tom honey. However, this time I want you to die with me, we will become a couple that will never be separated."
