Spoiler: Greed x Shen Yun x Lust 4 Lust nibbles Clouds ear and said that Greed will return the next day...hearing this cloud reveals a look of despair and Lust seeing this loved the sight of joy and pain in his eyes. Lust is looking for to completely conquering Cloud and finally Greed returns after traveling night and day to retrieve the herb and even left the guards behind in order to return back sooner only to come back to Cloud refusing to see him. So Lust came out to take the herbs and told Greed to go back since Cloud is very 'ill' but Greed gets upset and tells Lust he doesn't have the right to tell him anything regarding Cloud. Lust again told him to leave but Greed decided to wait outside the courtyard[probably]. Green saw that the array flashed green for a moment and allowed Lust to go in while it flashed red for him preventing him from entering..and this caused him to feel unease..he started to wonder what happened while he was gone. He thought he had Cloud firmly in his grasp..so how did he slip away. So inside Lust is having his way with Cloud as Cloud looked outside to see Greed being separated from him by the array like a moat...seeing how he is anxious and reflecting confusion at being denied. Although Greed can't see them, Lust taunts Cloud that he was doing sexy things while watching Greed outside, and Cloud shudders at this but doesn't resist because he feels it's useless. Cloud felt physical pleasure but emotional pain all night as Greed was outside while Lust was here with him..in the morning Lust asked if he wanted to go see Greed but Cloud immediately says no. Lust comments that Cloud was being cruel. Cloud looks down and reveals eyes of pain barely held back and Lust seeing this gets so excited he pounces Cloud again. So this goes on for 7 days, Cloud refuses to come out to see greed while Greed waited outside refusing to sleep, eat, or drink under the various weathers. While Cloud watches him as his emotions starts to wear thin, Lust taunts him saying that the young lord[Greed] has deep feelings for Cloud, that Greed was cute but cannot satisfy Cloud. Lust continues to taunt him saying how can Cloud stand it, if Greed found out what he's been doing all the while wouldn't he go crazy and that Greed loves cloud so much but Cloud can't control his own body...Lust said that Clouds' body is too lewd so he should not ruin Greed since he has a bright future ahead of him. At that last taunt, Cloud decided to confront Greed on the 8th day..while Greed is exhausted all this time waiting outside but Cloud's heart has been tormented as well. Greed asks him if he's feeling ok, but Cloud immediately told him that he was fine since 3 day ago and he didn't want to see greed... Ofc Greed gets upset over this and Cloud starts talking about how Greed is too young and Greed cuts him off and asks what he meant by his words. Cloud told him they will return to being father and son and at this Greed felt his eyes turned red rimmed and he felt his heart hurt. He begged Cloud not to joke about this and Cloud said he's a few thousand years old while Greed is not even an adult yet..and said he doesn't love him like that. Suddenly Greed appeared in front of Cloud with his hands on his throat and though he of killing Cloud right now. Only when he's dead cold corpse can he totally be in control of Cloud. Cloud was surprised by this and although he can easily fight off Greed he couldn't bring himself to hurt him and thought that parting this way would be good too since their future would only be painful if they are together. Before Lust came along he thought he would be able to give Greed the best of everything but now he realizes that he's the worse thing for greed instead. So he knocked out greed and took him back to his room, and his eyes looked on affectionately but filled with pain, despair and sadness. After tucking Greed in bed he thought of kissing him but felt he was too dirty to have the right. So he turned away and left as if his soul was lost. Lust watched this and knew what went on in clouds thoughts[nope] and then he thought to himself he wouldn't let it end like this because he prepared for so long..until he manages to cut Greed out of Clouds heart can he be satisfied. Cloud sent a beautiful delicate male youth to Greed in hopes he would forget Cloud but greed chased him away, but the youth persisted on trying to stay so Greed tried to kill him but Lust saved the youth and said that he shouldn't go vent his anger on people this way. Greed thought about killing Lust but realized that he's actually stronger than he thought and Lust said that Greed should find out what the truth was before acting rashly. Lust taunts Greed by saying that normally the male body isn't used to receiving, does he recall that Cloud didn't feel any pain if anything he enjoyed it. After Greed thought about a month ago he realized that this is true, he felt his heart become crushed, twisted and start to rot and suddenly his face cleared up and smiled at Lust. Thanked lust for this information and also asked if Lust has been in Cloud's bed all this time. Lust didn't answer him and Greed asked if Cloud really was injured/poisoned..but just as Lust was going to speak he decided he will personally go find out. When Lust left, Greed started to obsess over Cloud and he thought he would personally destroy anything that touched, tainted, tarnished his cloud ..that cloud only belongs to him alone. While Lust was making his way back, Cloud was monitoring them thru the array that he set round the entire palace and saw that sweet smile that didn't reflect in Greed's eyes. Zero baby was like..why are u happy about this, shouldn't u be angry Cloud; Greed is not innocent /naive [little white flower] Zero baby: ... Cloud; He's a black hearted lotus, if a little white flower was deceived and betrayed they will be lost and drown, but greed will not if anything that would provoke his sick desire to monopolize and become resort to any means. Spoiler: Greed x Shen Yun x Lust 5 Cloud decides they should move the play to the battlefield in order to progress the plot, since it seems Greed needs a chance to make his move....5 years later, this moment arrived [meaning all this time raising greed the moment greed makes him move arrived] and all this time Cloud has been avoiding Greed, but greed decided to show cloud his unperturbed look as if he got over it. So greed told cloud that he understood and will return to being father and son again...hearing this cloud showed a paled face. Cloud didn't think that Greed would get over it so soon after only 7 days, but he thought this is for the best since he would only hurt him. Cloud said that since greed is his only child the future of this palace is all for greed, hearing this Greed eye's darken and thought that Cloud was trying to throw him away and give him this dead place. Greed thinks Cloud would pass everything to him then leave with Lust....feeling pain at this thought, he told Cloud that he's still in his prime and he shouldn't be saying things like that. Cloud hearing this and saw that Greed was looking at him unblinking and felt himself losing control over his facade...he told Greed to take care of the work [ he was in the study] and as he walked past greed to leave the room...Greed controlled the impulse to pull Cloud to him ...as Cloud left, Lust showed up and noticed that Cloud had his hands in a grip and stumbled but Lust caught him and said he was ill so he will help him back to his room. So as Lust helped cloud back, although cloud was angry with himself for expecting otherwise. Greed watched as they left side by side intimately walking close together. Cloud scolded himself not to expect anything more, this is the result he wanted [greed going back to father and son relation and being less intimate] and felt that he didn't have the right to expect anything due to him betraying Greed. Cloud's eyes showed complex emotions as if he was relieved, but also desperate...as his heart felt pain and weakness. Lust seeing this felt his heart tremble and felt that he was very excited, that everything moved according to his vision. Lustful body, strong, charming, stubborn and enduring character..so Lust pounced on Cloud. Cloud noticed that Lust started kissing him and just stared for a moment until his robes were taking off did he look at Lust in confusion...then failure? [maybe he gave up] and he's no longer disappointed, disgusted and just looked at Lust. Cloud decided to kiss Lust, Lust was surprised since Cloud wasn't under the influence of the lust curse. Lust got very excited and lost all control and this provoked his urge to conquer Cloud. There's no estrus or curse compelling Cloud this time, rather he didn't resist instead he indulged in order to forget everything else. Lust is utterly enraptured by this side of Cloud, ofc this is cloud giving him a 'sweet' because thru Lust's body can cloud capture him...after all Lust's view on love is twisted and with this Cloud puts all his 'skills' to use on Lust. Cloud mentioned that men need to feel that they are the best in bed. : So Greed seemly settled down and Cloud lets him do anything he wants although there seems to be a gap between them now, and although Cloud doesn't like Lust but because his relation with Greed is not broken, he decided to sink into the physical pleasure in order to numb himself. So greed hearing rumors about how the Lord Shen Yun was keeping the physician[lust] as a male pet, decided to have young beautiful boys in his courtyard...when Cloud heard about it, he felt shocked but Greed said that if Cloud happens to like any of them he's willing to offer them to Cloud. Cloud mentioned that Greed is still young...[ok idk how old at this point lmfao i think maybe...16-17 perhaps lol] and so Greed mentions that because he's young he wants it more therefore Cloud thinks that he doesn't have the right to stop greed..thus his heart became numb with pain. So as Cloud was about to leave, Greed pulls him back and said that maybe cloud would like him to find some people for him to play with as well, since it's possible Lust may not be enough for him, inciting Cloud to slap Greed. Greed looked at Cloud and with a smile he said that cloud hit him, so cloud said he shouldn't be saying that to him...but then Greed said that maybe he should've thought about it when he pulled greed into his bed. Cloud said he was wrong for doing that. At this point Greed felt he would never see the day where Cloud would apologize to anyone and felt the urge to kill Lust for touching Cloud. So Greed taunted Cloud and said that day when cloud slept with him, he was probably pining for Lust and couldn't endure being without a man..that Cloud knew he admired, like, love Cloud and as long as cloud wished he'd come running to him like a fool...and that when lust came back..Cloud immediately kicked him away. So Greed taunted him some more and said that he doesn't need to worry, since he's young he can get over this momentary obsession and said that since you don't want to hear this then i will not mention it, since you are the lord of the humans, the esteemed lord Shen Yun, my father and always i'll be your son. After saying this Greed turned around and left. After Greed left, zerobaby asked what to do about greed if he really lets go off his feelings. Cloud assured him that he's just laying out a plan to blindside him ..because he[greed] knows he cannot win against Cloud and Lust even if he wins over of the human forces. Cloud expects that Greed will start showing his cards in his hands in roughly 2 years when he recovers his memories when his body fully matures...but he was caught off guard as he realized greed started within a month. Cloud wasn't quite ready as he hasn't completely caught Lust yet, but it doesn't matter, he'll just adapt to it. He didn't expect Greed to start acting before he recovered his memories. A month goes by and the Rift starts to crack open so Greed left to deal with it , however it just go larger and larger so Cloud had to go deal with it in person...ofc he wanted Greed to stay at the palace while he and lust went however Greed insisted on going...he stated that if he always sat behind while Cloud did everything, would he have the right to inherit the leadership when his turn comes around. Although Cloud didn't want Greed to be in danger but he wanted to see what greed would do. Spoiler: Greed x Shen Yun x Lust 6 So they traveled to the battlefront, however it so happens that the day they arrived, it was 7 days since the last estrus, so Cloud could no longer hold on and his face started to flush. Noticing this Lust immediately came over to him and he made an excuse about rushing ahead to see the situation at the battlefield and left with Lust. Some of the soldiers thought that maybe that was an excuse after all Lust was a 'physician' it would actually be slower to bring him along but they won't question him...hearing this Greed decided to follow them. They didn't' go far before they found a 'secluded spot' and zero baby asked if cloud wants to set up an array to make them invisible but cloud said no, Zerobaby was like...what if someone sees you?! Cloud said he actually worries that they won't be seen. So they did the deed right there, no one paid attention to the surroundings as cloud's reason is gone [pft] and Lust just don't care. So Greed manages to see this scene and got agitated because he felt cloud couldn't even wait before getting it on. So while doing the deed Lust got really excited[doing it outdoors probably lol] decided to have cloud yell out what he wanted to hear... (⁄ ⁄•⁄ω⁄•⁄ ⁄)⁄ lol..um >.> ok i'll put this part but soooo...embarrassing ahhhh says ah Yun [i'm familiar with this use it's kinda like yun-er in the sense of affection but um...not quite as childish i think] Lust: Cloud who am i? Cloud: moans~ Lust: Who do you like Cloud: you... like you Qian Lust: You love me? Cloud: love you ..i love you Lust: Louder! Cloud: I love Xie Qian lan[Lust's name], love you... Ofc this kinda makes lust even more excited~~ This scene pisses off Greed and fuels his obsession even more..he desperately restrained himself and watched as they continued and finally when cloud climaxes, Cloud loses control and his blue ears and blue tail appears. Seeing this Greed became even more obsessed that Cloud was actually a beast, the esteemed Lord shen Yun was actually a beast, a demon. He wants to obtain the real Shen Yun now so his obsession burns even hotter. So back to the battleground after that romping and voyeuring~ a lot of devils appeared out of the large crack and Cloud used his ice magic and some spells but not the specialty sword he grew up with when pride raised him in order to not mess up the future...because lust is twins with Pride. Lust starts supporting Cloud in killing the devils with his ..stringed instrument [ might be a guqing] and with this Greed knows that Lust's cultivation is higher than Clouds so he waits for an opportunity to attack and Lust eventually goes closer to the crack in order to push the devils back. This moment is when Greed shot out and pushed him into the crack ...Lust responded too late and although he attacked back injuring Greed, Greed didn't stop and pushed him straight into the crack and immediately sealed the rift. [Cloud was praising greed for being so smart using this method to get rid of lust lmfao] So Cloud then shows a surprised face and shouted out in distress for Lust and Greed immediately weaved a spell to stun/disable Cloud and said to him with blood still dripping from his mouth, 'Cloud you belong to me'..hearing this cloud showed a stunned face and Greed pulled over cloud and said that too bad Lust didn't die, but it doesn't matter you will never see him again and bit cloud on the lips. Though Cloud tried to resist, this excites Greed further and he would like to have his way with Cloud right now but the rifts need to be sealed in order to prevent lust from coming back. He threatens Cloud with exposing that he was a devil in order to make him obey. Zerobaby: isn't this familiar, these 2 slags use the same threats Cloud: They all think i care about being the lord hero Cloud shows distress and asked what Greed meant, and greed said that when he ..climaxes his beast features will show up..Cloud shows a shocked face and Greed said that since he couldn't wait to romp in open, how can he expect to keep it a secret. As greed starts pulling him away, cloud pulls him back and begs him to let Lust come back...this pisses off Greed and he said that cloud should be happy he didn't get to kill Lust. So with Greed sealing the rifts in roughly 10 days, he had sealed Cloud's cultivation away and isolated him from others claiming that Cloud was injured. So i think Greed put him in a large carriage or something i'm not exactly sure as google says it's a car <.<... So finally greed comes back to see him and when he opens the door? Cloud shows a dazed expression and whispers Lusts' name which ofc pisses off Greed xD So greed starts kissing Cloud in an angry manner and Cloud doesn't resist at, he even wound his arms around Greed's neck almost in a trance like move and for a moment greed starts to get happy but then Cloud happily said Lust's name again. I think Greed starts doing the deed with him here but the whole time Cloud keeps calling out Lust's name and there was some sort of incense in the air that keeps him dazed soo....Greed starts getting upset, that he finally caught Cloud but his heart doesn't belong to him. Greed thinks about love and i think he thinks that if Cloud will only look at him, hear him, feel only him then he will love cloud...however Cloud's body is being tortured by the lust curse and along with the estrus going on..and although the estrus can be eased by Greed however the curse..only Lust can ease that. So Cloud's awareness finally returns and starts to calm himself down while thinking he needs to talk to Greed. Zerobaby: um.. Cloud: what? Zerobaby: Lusts' portrait just lit up *Zerobaby is starting to doubt his Dos..this is so confusing...why is it that greed's obsession to possess Cloud's heart doesn't light up and yet the one[Lust] that's all about physical pleasure suddenly lights up?!* Cloud: that's good *cloud felt that at least he succeeded with lust, due to this his urge to torture lust for planting the lust curse on him decreases a bit.*
Spoiler: Greed x Shen Yun X Lust 7 So they return to the palace and Greed guarded Cloud the entire time, finally Cloud wakes up a bit calmer and starts talking to Greed. Greed responds gently and Cloud pointed out that Greed didn't let go like he said he would. Greed admits that he didn't and that he likes Cloud and he said that he had to pretend to let go in order to get rid of lust, because Cloud pushed him away to be with lust. Greed said he loved Cloud and Cloud hearing this was happy but also desperate, because of the curse he cannot be loyal to Greed. His body will always need Lust in order to keep the curse under control. Cloud finally responds and says that he doesn't like Greed and Greed starts playing the blame game and said that Cloud was the one that seduced him, confused him and then kicked him away... he already knows that cloud doesn't like him even a little, because he wouldn't have been so cruel to him. Greed then says it doesn't matter who cloud likes, because cloud can now only belong to Greed, look at greed and think of greed alone. Cloud hearing this feels a bit happy but also knows he can't reciprocate. So over the next 8-9 days Greed keeps him confined to his room while doing countless rounds, but no matter how often Cloud climaxes, he is not satisfied due to the curse. Cloud's reason starts to collapse and stretched him to the limit as the curse starts to drive his body to intensely crave Lust. Finally he starts begging Greed to let Lust come back, that he needs to see him. At first Greed wanted to take him out for a walk but now that Cloud said this, he coldly asked him if what's the point of seeing lust again and Cloud said he really needs to see Lust, before he can continue Greed pounces on him to stop him from talking about Lust anymore. Greed told Cloud that he won't allow him to see lust or anyone else from now on. Because of the curse torturing him...although greed makes him climax multiple times and yet he still craves Lust, so Cloud's mind starts to hate Greed because he's being tortured and held captive, how did their relationship end up this way. He starts begging Greed to let him go see Lust and Greed responds by moving even more aggressive than before. Greed even took Cloud's clothes away and kept him confined in his room, any time Cloud mentions Lust he would pounce until Cloud falls asleep tired...then hold him to sleep. Greed starts to feel powerless, although he managed to get rid of Lust and trap Cloud, he couldn't not get a hold of Cloud's heart. Although they are intimate everyday and night, but Cloud heart seems to only have Lust. Greed keeps wondering, why is it the more he wants, the more it seems like Cloud would slip away from him. Eventually Cloud manages to calm down and think of a plan , and although his body craves but he needs to find a way back to Lust. So Cloud pretends to be calm and apologizes to greed and gives him a hug. That night there was no mention of Lust at all and Cloud kept saying Greed's name all night and so Greed was happy and convinced so after a few days...Greed thinks that Cloud is now back to normal[pft], Cloud indulges Greed with anything, after roughly 8 days Greed finally let down his guard and takes Cloud out to walk around. Cloud keeps his eyes on Greed while looked on affectionately and this relaxes Greed a bit and seeing how Cloud is nice and obedient to him, he finally thought he possessed him completely. So Greed thought he succeeded, that he was persistent and his efforts paid off. So he finally lets Cloud out and stops confining him. So eventually Greed dismisses everyone else so that there's only Cloud and Greed in the palace and Cloud even caught some fish and cooked it for greed tho he got a bit injured in the process because his abilities are still sealed. Greed felt distressed at the injuries and told him not to go catch fish anymore, but Cloud told him affectionately that since Greed likes he then he'll obtain it...So Greed asked if Cloud wants the servants to come back but Cloud said he's ok with how things are it's better with only them. So while Cloud was cleaning the dishes, Greed came up and started healing his injuries...for a moment Cloud reveals a sense of loss... Days like this continues for the both of them for a few days...eventually Cloud gets another injury and Greed said that he will unseal his abilities ...Cloud said he's ok, but Greed said that as long as Cloud is obedient, looks only at him then he won't let him suffer anything. Cloud trembles a bit and Greed hugs him and said that he really likes Cloud but cloud thinks to himself that this kind of love is demonic. Cloud then turns and leans against Greed and told him that he liked him too. Greed then asked Cloud to tell him who he[Greed] is, Cloud says that Greed is his Xiao Yan [ i think]. Greed shows happiness and Cloud eyes drop a bit and shows a slight smile. That night they made love and the next day Greed unseals Cloud's abilities. Greed looks at Cloud as his eyes widen for a moment then kissed Cloud and asked him for the largest, freshest fish he can find. Cloud indulgently says that he'll get it for him so this puts Greed in a good mood. He felt he finally achieved his wish and finally possessed cloud completely. As long as Cloud belongs to him he doesn't mind giving him more freedom. What is love in the end, this is how it should be Cloud loves him and he loves cloud...only the two of them together in happiness like this everyday. As Greed waits for Cloud to come back..he realized that Cloud didn't come back, he at first didn't want to give up his trust and started searching around the palace but then realized that cloud is gone. He was tricked! Why did he pretend, all for that Lust! Greed felt a surge of hate and anger and resentment at Cloud leaving, he refused to let Cloud belong to anyone else, since you like acting then we have a lifetime! Spoiler: Greed x Shen Yun x Lust 8 Cloud talked to Zerobaby about how this body is thin and Zerobaby said he almost doesn't recognize it. Cloud comments on how there's a huge difference in look when it comes to the mature and juvenile stage for an Ice Spirit Beast. Cloud says that even if Envy was here, he probably would not recognize him [because Envy manipulated the Ice Spirit Beast physical features at juvenile stage to look like Chu Muyun]. However it seems that his mature phase was not affected, because his body now closely resembles his body on earth. So Cloud was not in a hurry to go find Lust, after all he will come on his own,so he takes his time heading to the rifts at the battlefield while commenting that he pissed off Greed in order to sow bitterness/angst to wake him up [progress to love]. So Cloud plays hide and seek with Greed for a few days in order to stimulate him further and when his body finally can't stand it anymore then he starts heading towards the rifts just as they begin to crack. So finally Greed catches up and with a bloodthirsty smile says that he's still waiting for the fish. Cloud then said to let him go, but Greed asks, 'Am i not good enough? Not enough sincerity? Cloud then says if you love me you'll let me go. Greed flares up at this, If i love you?! You want to leave me, who loves you?! What qualifications do you have for me to love you?! At this cloud shows a pale face and bit his lip til it bled but seems to not have felt the pain, Greed continues and with feelings of resentment and spite he said with a beautiful honey like voice in a cold tone, 'You repeatedly abandoned me, You want me to love you?! Don't make me laugh. Cloud then responds that he erred a lot so since Greed doesn't like him, in that case it's better to let him leave. Greed suddenly came closer and told him not to think about it and grabbed Cloud by the throat inflicting pain. "I don't love you, don't like you or even hate you, but you have to have to take responsibility [ idk /shrug ..for becoming his obsession maybe lol]. [the next sentence i'm not sure what's being conveyed it seems like he's saying that since cloud can't be with Lust and he might possible sleep with other ppl then it's better that cloud stays with him.] I will never believe you, never let you out, never let anyone see you, and never let you take even one step from that room from now on. You only have to do one thing and that's to wait for me to take you!' Cloud finally fell into despair at these words and realized that it's all over and can never be repaired. His eyes got a dazed look in them and exposed an indulgent smile as he looked at Greed and said he was sorry, suddenly Cloud raised his hand let out a deep blue frost bolt, Greed thought he wanted to resist and that it might take some effort to subdue Cloud, however that frost bolt pierced cloud's chest. Cloud became completely pale and eyes still staring at Greed. Greed was stunned and saw that Cloud did not hesitate at all...it pierced his chest entirely....the heart was likely hit resulting in a fatal injury. So Cloud did not want to live..why? From beginning to end he always cherished Cloud, wanted him in his heart, wanted to have him..he put in so much effort...just want to be together, why is Cloud so cruel to where he'd rather die than be with him. Greed held Cloud and started ranting crazily: why...you saved me, you raised me, you gave me hope...why did you have to love someone else, why didn't you choose me?! Cloud with his eyes closed felt a tear drop on his face and sighed, Zerobaby said he couldn't understand Greed, even up til now, why doesn't he understand that what he wants isn't love at all. Cloud jokes with Zerobaby: You lose your emote pack and you will be sad , but u are not in love with your emote pack. [ I guess he's comparing Greed's feeling of loving Cloud to zerobaby's feelings towards his emote pack?] Zero baby: .... Actually Cloud did not hit his heart, but it's still a lot of pain, his abilities is not sealed so such an injury will not kill him but he believes that this is the only way to get Greed to understand. But he realizes that Greed still doesn't understand because Greed's portrait did not even light up a corner. As Cloud tried to think of another plan, the rift crack starts to enlarge further and Greed turned around to see a man come out of the crack...only to see Lust come out, he came back! Cloud tho sees that its Pride, not Lust. Zerobaby was like /(ToT)/, long time no see! Cloud; didn't expect that you like him. Zerobaby: well he was the first one to be conquered. Cloud: chick complex [ i guess like baby ducks? lol first thing seen is mama lmao] Zerobaby: So i like the host[Cloud] the most Cloud: ....
Spoiler: Greed x Shen Yun x Lust 9 So Cloud wasn't expecting to see Pride show up however he can make use of him to progress for Greed. Cloud stared at Pride and Greed bit out the name Lust. So Greed attacks 'Lust' right away and Pride was like..confused xD [ not going to describe the moves they use ...complicated for me to make sense of] Greed was determined to vent his anger on "Lust" and Pride noticed the Cloud on the ground and snapped at Greed : You think he's dead?' That startled Greed for a moment then he was angry again and determined to destroy the cause, since "Lust' is here then he cannot have Cloud.. Pride interrupts his thoughts by stating that he's not Lust because he uses a sword not a guqin[stringed instrument]. Greed somewhat believes him because it seems his personality seems different from Lust...then Pride said that he can heal Cloud's injury. Greed hearing this decides to let Pride help Cloud... Since the injury missed the heart, it wasn't difficult for Pride to treat, after a while Cloud's complexion started to improve and Greed started to feel a bit better, however Pride checked Cloud's wrist [ i guess see the condition of his body] and asked Greed if he knew that Cloud was infected by a Lust curse...Greed only looked puzzled. [Well at this point google starts calling it a parasite =.=] Greed asked pride to explain and Pride said that Lust put a lust parasite/curse [whatever] in Cloud's body and it tortures his body with sexual urges which no one can satisfy except Lust. Hearing this Greed was startled and Pride gave him a look and he also stated that the parasite has been active for a long while already, for cloud to resist it for this long..his willpower is rather amazing since ordinary people would have been driven mad already. Greed felt stunned at this information and Pride also said that normally Lust would not use this to control others, so that means he wanted to take Cloud away. Greed's face turned cold at this and said that Cloud only has Lust in his heart...then he said that he only always call out for Lust and even would rather die than to be w/o lust. Pride frowned and said that was impossible...if Cloud loved Lust then the parasite would not torment him at all...if Cloud happens to love someone other than Lust then the parasite will torture him forcing him to need only Lust. Greed froze when he heard this and Pride asked if Cloud was Greed's lover prior to meeting Lust. Greed started to reflect on this and remember all his moments and what Cloud had said to him and then thought back to the day when Lust appeared and everything derailed from its path. Greed never understood love, he didn't understand why he was so deeply obsessed with Cloud nor why Cloud would fall in love with someone else. So is love something precious or worthless? Greed doesn't understand love...he didn't want to know, he just wants Cloud, as long as he can have Cloud then nothing else matters. But what happened...Greed imprisoned Cloud, bound him tight, allowed him only to look at Greed, only have Greed, only feel Greed, but couldn't make him think of Greed. Lust's existence is like a thorn in his heart, always a reminder that Cloud could never truly be completely possessed by greed and he always felt pain deep down to the marrow. Now someone tells him, that in fact, Cloud did not like Lust, he was being forced. Because Cloud loved someone other than Lust, he was being tortured...then who is it that Cloud loved? Greed then told Pride that Cloud did not love him and Cloud even told Greed that. Pride eyes flashed and then he answered back and said that since Cloud was being controlled by the lust parasite, is he qualified to say he loved Greed...Greed looked at Pride when he heard this and Pride said that Cloud couldn't leave Lust because only Lust can calm down the parasite, therefore he can't be loyal to Greed, in order to love, even loyalty he can't keep for you so do you think he dares to say that he loves you? Greed tries hard to understand what's being said to him, he then says that if Cloud loves him then why does he keep pushing him away, why does he betray me and abandoned me to escape away. Pride said it's because Cloud loves Greed, that he doesn't want you to fall into this pain, so that you can forget him, so that u can move forward and gain happiness with someone else. Pride looked at Greed on the verge of collapse and seems to admire this look on his face. Pride continues to speak as he enjoyed the look of Greed emotions...It's because he knows you finally do not love him that he was in such pain enough to choose death.' Greed couldn't believe that he's the one that pushed Cloud away from himself. Pride said with a slight smile [i think it was probably ..malicious lol] that as long as the Lust parasite is removed, the he'll get the truth. Greed is startled by this and pride thought that it was rather interesting that as soon as he crossed thru the rift..he would run into something so amusing. He found someone that Lust wants but cannot have and then Greed who had the love but end up hurting their own love. Really enjoyable. Pride then said as he observed Greed, even if you kill Lust, the parasite will still effect him and Lust will never remove the parasite himself, so i can help u remove it however there's a side effect. Greed asked what the risk was and Pride said that because Cloud's body was been infected so long, his body completely adapted to it and has become addicted...so if the parasite is removed then Cloud can never have sex again and there will be some damage to his body. Pride observed Greed and ponders on his decision, will he let it be and keep Cloud confined away from other people forever or will he remove the parasite so that Cloud could love him but never able to take that last step in intimacy ever again. So sex or love, which will he choose..whichever he choose regardless will be pain and torture. Pride then said that perhaps he should let Cloud decided...hearing this Greed thinks that its better to remove it so that Cloud would never be tortured by it again..however he doesn't know that Cloud is an Ice Spirit beast, his estrus period has yet to end..so he will need to have intercourse when it flares up regardless if the parasite is there or not. So they return to the palace and Pride immediately wants to get started, greed hesitates a bit...meanwhile... Zerobaby: pride is soo evil Cloud: yep Zero baby: So greed will not ask you at all? Cloud: nope he won't Zerobaby: Sigh Spoiler: Greed x Shen Yun x Lust 10 Greed is still hesitant over this, he can't sort his emotions and can't seem to calm down. Ever since Pride told him the 'truth' Greed has been troubled by his own nature and is confused and puzzled. He was always eager to have cloud and in order to monopolize him, he didn't hesitate to pay any price..this points to aim to completely possess Cloud..but the result he got was the opposite. ..So if Cloud had always loved him...then what did he desire? If cloud's heart had always belonged to him, then what did he do all this for? If he doesn't remove the parasite then Cloud will always need Lust, but if he removes it then he cannot be intimate with Cloud. So what is it that he wants in the end..for the first time in his life greed thought about this problem. He suddenly remembered Cloud's gentle smile and gradually his eyes cleared and turned to Pride and said that he will keep watch while Pride removes the parasite. In the end what Greed wants is for Cloud to love him, he just wants cloud to stay with him even if it means he cannot be intimate anymore. Pride seeing this smirks and hides the satisfaction in his eyes. Cloud realizes the 5 years that he gave Greed has just ended...he lost track of time. Pride removed the parasite with great difficulty, but only he was able to do this because he understands Lust so well. The parasite had spread over the nerves and densely packed throughout the body..to remove its is quite difficult. Pride ofc could remove it w/o injuring the Cloud, for a great price which requires greater effort..but why would he bother to do that. He just help them casually and receive the reward of their endless pain. It took a total of 3 days and 3 nights before it was completely removed and the parasite tried to escape...Greed tried to kill it but Pride stopped him saying that its better to trap it than kill it since, because it can restore back to Lust and he can just plant it again. So greed thanks pride and promised him a reward and meanwhile later Cloud wakes up and plays the part of Shen Yun at the moment of suicide whom was completely unaware of the removal of the lust parasite since he wasn't suppose to know it existed in the first place. Cloud looked at greed and asked why he saved him...hearing this Greed is startled. Cloud begged Greed to let him go just let die, he can't stand being together with Greed. Greed felt his heart go cold. [Cloud praises himself on his great script and acting lol] Shen Yun is quite bad off since he was tortured for so long by the parasite and so he was wearing thin and then with Greed's words of hate, he completely broke and chose to die. Hearing this greed held back his temper and held cloud's hand as he apologized, Cloud was startled and made of face of not understanding and so Greed explained to him everything with cause and effect and Cloud was stunned by what he heard. Greed assured Cloud that he already had the parasite removed and he will not be tortured into needing Lust. Cloud felt complex emotions, he gotten used to lust but upon hearing that the estrus was in fact not the problem but the parasite that Lust planted on him was the culprit then he felt rage and hate..because he was ruined by it. Greed seeing this smiled slightly and said he will get revenge on Lust. So Cloud turned to Greed and asked him if he still loved him, so Greed said he liked, no ...he loves Cloud. Greed felt anxious because it was like the first time he ever felt love[idk did the pic light up yet?] So cloud said he loved Greed as well and kissed him... Zero baby observed this and felt complicated...so sweet, loving affectionate and yet...the portrait did not light up, what a great actor. Zerobaby felt like crying, why is this guy so deceptive. So Cloud becomes amorous with Greed and they started to strip before Greed sobered up and stopped himself ..even tho he's so tempted but he cannot become intimate with Cloud. Greed just kissed cloud and said that Cloud needs to recover so they should hold back. Hearing this cloud hesitated a bit then agreed. Greed said he will let cloud rest and left to the room next door even tho cloud wanted him to stay. Cloud leaned against the bed and made a downcast face while observing that Greed went to soak in the cold water..then Zerobaby said that Pride was nearby...ofc Cloud expected this and said that he would not want to miss this play. How can Pride resist seeing the results of his handy work. Greed will not tell Cloud that the removal of the parasite resulted in a side effect which doesn't allow Cloud to become intimate with anyone and Pride knows this because he had gotten a good grasp on how greed will react..he understood how this will play out. He had told greed to not tell Cloud the side effects and Greed was puzzled by this, Pride said that since Cloud loves Greed he would not want Greed to suffer by maintaining celibacy forever... so do you think he will stay if he realizes that you would do this. Ofc this is only temporary, you can't hide it forever, but he was recently distressed and its possible he might not trust that you would love him despite not being able to be intimate with him. So take this time to let him know how much you love and cherish him and want to be together despite the consequences of the side effects. Poor amnesiac Greed had forgotten about the existence of Ice Spirit Beasts. So for the next few days Greed was very lovey dovey with Cloud and this makes cloud happy however greed would not become intimate with him and cloud notes that its a few days before the estrus is due. He feels he has recovered sufficiently and tried hinting to Greed, but greed claims that cloud still seems pale and weak.. and ask that cloud wait for a while longer. Cloud made a stiffen posture as if becoming restless and can no longer hold back. Why does greed keep leaving..is he disgusted with him...is this his so call love? So Greed can't accept that he's been with Lust after all. So Cloud made his lips tremble and clench the sheets. [pride watching~] Cloud comforted himself thinking that because something happened so recently so there's a need for trust in each other so he relaxed a bit...although Greed has not been intimate with him but he doesn't limit him, imprison or seal away his abilities. Cloud just stuck around the bedroom, lake or kitchen... So they are still loving to each other, cloud cooks fish for greed and until 7 days later, Cloud found that familiar agitation starts to rise again and although it's not as strong as before..but it's insistent and he can't ignore it. He realized that even tho the parasite is going but the Ice Spirit Beast estrus is still there...he will still need to have intercourse but he's not dependent on Lust. Although he can become intimate with Greed in order to cool it down but it seems Greed doesn't want to be intimate. Cloud then arrived at the conclusion that greed has been ignoring his hints and that greed in fact doesn't want to touch him. Cloud then decides that he can't tell Greed about the estrus because that means that even tho the lust parasite is not there but because of the estrus he can't resist Lust anyway. So because they both chose not to talk to each other a crack occurred in their relationship causing pain. Cloud tried to be patient but as days and nights go by, Greed would not touch him and he began to daze and not pay much attention to Greed. Greed is not aware that Cloud is in a daze and thought that it was good that Greed was being patient to make up for all the pain he inflicted in the past and he just wants to be gentle and have cloud come to love him again. Zerobaby: comments that he's touched by greed's actions atm Cloud: ... Cloud thinks that if greed and zerobaby ever met they would make a perfect couple, and live a happy life. Even tho Greed doesn't understand love he will pretend to love in order to obtain absolute loyalty and Zerobaby will simply never find out and believe in the love that's being shown and will dedicate love loyally and this would greatly please greed and thus the perfect cycle is completed. 10 days passes and Cloud has endure til almost the limit, he's starting to feel tortured, his body has long been used to pleasure and especially with Greed nearby yet not being intimate. It almost felt as if he was under the control of the lust parasite again. When greed returned Cloud pounced on him and became entangled in the kiss...eventually they strip down and Greed suddenly sobers up and stopped...his face contort with some anger in it..[seems to be angry with himself for letting it get that far] and Cloud felt himself go cold as he saw Greed just get up and walk out. Cloud starts to question if Greed really loves him or not and felt despair ...soon he gets up and heads toward Greed in order to get an answer, if greed really doesn't like him then he will not stay. Cloud was feeling overwhelmed by the estrus and suddenly he saw someone nearby so he walked up and thought that it was greed, but ends up being Lust. Cloud was startled that Lust was here but at the same time because he was overwhelmed by the estrus, he immediately walked up to Lust and started kissing him. Pride then pushed him away and tried to speak but Cloud called him Lust.
Spoiler: Greed x Shen Yun x Lust 11 So Cloud held on to Pride's clothes while completely under the estrus and he keeps kissing Pride despite Pride 'trying to protest and explain' and meanwhile Greed showed up and pulled Cloud away and puts his clothes back on him and said that Cloud was truly obsessed with Lust. Cloud sobered up a bit but he was still slow to react as the estrus is very strong atm but now he saw what happened and he paled and tried to explain but greed pulled him over and apologized to pride. Pride frowned a bit [probably actin like usual~] Greed took Cloud back to the room and while Cloud tried to explain, Greed pounced on him and decided not to hold back anymore. Greed said that Pride tried to push him away twice but Cloud kept clinging to him and so Greed called Cloud biao [slut] [ ty @ludagad ] and asked why cloud was so jian [lusty] [ ty @ludagad ] Greed said that since Cloud wants it so much then he will do him til death. So Cloud stops resisting and starts thinking about what happened, because he was under estrus he couldn't not control himself and lost his mind. So he wasn't human...because he was an Ice Spirit Beast. Suddenly climaxed however he also felt his nerves scream? and felt despair and destruction. The next day Greed woke up and a bit flustered he turned to check on Cloud and felt like his heart stopped. Greed stared at Cloud's body. Then comes Pride knocking at the door and he talked about how he felt Cloud's pulse and last night how Cloud was almost uncontrollable after looking in an ancient book...he said that Cloud was a very rare Ice Spirit beast, when they mature, they enter a period of estrus where they will feel need to the point of losing the rationality. Greed thought back and he never heard of an Ice Spirit beast but then he recalled cloud's ears and tail and even used this to threaten him. Even tho Greed saw this but he never thought to find out why Cloud had this appearance or why Cloud would need Lust. He thought he cared about Cloud so why did he ignore so many things....he mind started to become tangled. Then Pride said that because he didn't know that Cloud was an Ice Spirit beast so he gave him wrong advice and it seems the estrus is every 7 days, so Cloud must have lost control due to enduring for too long. Did something happen last night? Greed then looked at the bed and felt pained because Cloud was dying, his veins [probably meridians] were broken and gas field cracked [uh .. >.> dantian? maybe lol] witnessed his despair and suffering. His cultivation was destroyed...Greed tasted pain and despair as he knelt by the bed with helpless eyes as he picked up Cloud's hands. Cloud moved and weakly spoke to Greed calling him XiaoYan[probably]. Greed looked at cloud and felt only despair and regret and apologized to cloud that he didn't tell him that there was a side effect for removing the parasite...that he can't have intercourse..if they did then... Cloud didn't need him to explain as he personally experienced it. Greed felt that he would never get Cloud to forgive him or look at him, or think of him or love him because he did so many terrible things and will really lose him this time. Last time Cloud commit suicide in front of him and this time he personally destroyed him thoroughly, his cloud lost everything and it was all his fault [Greed]. So Greed starts to cry and is afraid to ask for forgiveness even afraid to say sorry as what he did was horrible...but Cloud told him not to cry and smiled slightly and touched Greed on the cheek as he said he was happy. Greed asked him why, because Cloud though that Greed didn't like him and Greed said that he never disliked him and so Cloud said he was very happy. Greed can't understand why cloud would be happy since he's the one who caused this, but Cloud said that it wasn't Greed's fault since he didn't know he was an Ice Spirit Beast in estrus...and Greed just held on distressed. So Cloud asked him while heavily breathing, if Greed loved him... Before Greed easily lied and said that he liked, loved, and want him but now he couldn't say it...so what exactly is love? Cloud didn't hear greed's response but Cloud told Greed that he loved him and Greed froze when he heard this. Cloud told Greed that he hopes he can be happy, even if cloud can't see, hear or feel him again but he'll always be nearby always forever at Greed's side. So cloud 'died' and gave a promise to Greed and at this moment Greed felt something he never had a grasp on, land, grow and flourish in his heart and when Cloud closed his eyes, Greed calmed down and leaned into kiss Cloud and said that Cloud will not die. Cloud ofc is not dead he hasn't gotten the marriage proposal from either Greed or Lust yet so how can he die. He closed his eyes to recharge his batteries lmfao....he thought this body was rotten, even breathing is difficult. meanwhile~ Zerobaby: [a bunch of tear emotes that didn't load on this page] Cloud: Did you run out of Tear emotes? Zerobaby: this is just the start, i'm still loading 365 or 3650? [idk <.<] Cloud: .... Zerobaby: ... TAT QAQ (ini) (´;︵;`) (;﹏; ) ( ͒˃̩̩⌂˂̩̩ ͒) ... ... ... ... Cloud: .... Stop! So did Greed's portrait light up? Zerobaby: yes Cloud: just the corners? Zerobaby: completely lit up Cloud was in a good mood, so he didn't suffer for nothing, but now is not the time to extract a proposal from greed...since he's almost dead. Fall in love, then enter the marriage hall[not really] and then ..something about feng shui and joy [idk, i guess this is what the personality Shen Yun would deem appropriate] This is not how Shen Yun thinks, he would not seek to bind Greed to him while on the verge of death, so he must be consistent and keep to shen yun's character and knowing pride, how can he let shen yun die, he still hasn't inflict suffering on this brother[Lust] yet. So assured he will find a solution for Greed. Although Pride caused greed to suffer but ultimately his goal is to make Lust suffer. Zerobaby: Upgraded~! from 3.0 to 4.0, i can download more emote packs. Also i seem to have more features. Cloud: hm? Zerobaby: Support skills, 1. Reduce the host's pain, 2. absolute clarity[awareness], please make a choice. Cloud thought about this, support skills huh, sounds pretty good and so he chose #2. Zerobaby wanted to say something and paused for a while and didn't implement it. Cloud understood him: #1 is useless although it will lower pain but i will lose my judgement, so absolute clarity is a lot better. Zero baby whispered: but the pain... Cloud: ... Zerobaby hesitate then : The original task was to not experience the 7 devil's tragic death [idk if it means to die because of the devils or experience the devi'ls death..] but now you have begun to experience it... Cloud: you really think u succeeded in threatening me? [maybe intimidated or scaring lol i'm not sure] Zerobaby: ... Cloud: ^_^ Zerobaby: *Ok..apparently even with the upgrade I still don't have a brain.* Spoiler: Greed x Shen Yun x Lust 12 While Cloud sleeps, Greed carefully wrapped him in a translucent light red mask...it doesn't seem to only protect, from Greed's hand is a very small character? from the ring finger down to the vein at the wrist was primer symbol to extract his vitality to nourish the wrap around Cloud's body... in order to assure that Cloud stays alive, Greed paid for it from his own life. If Greed's memory was restore then this was no big deal at all because the 7 devils were immortal but amnesiac Greed doesn't know this...so Cloud now believes that greed really does love him...Unfortunately 5 years have already passed.[idk what the significance of this is >.>;] Greed carefully holds Cloud walks out to Pride and then asked pride if there was someone in the devil world that can heal Cloud, since cloud was from there[..pft] Pride hesitated just a bit then answered that he knows someone who can. Pride mentions that Lust is in the devil world, but Greed looks down at Cloud and said that he wants cloud to live. He doesn't want cloud to be untouchable [cloud said that he would be near greed even if he's not able to see /touch/hear/feel him], he wants him alive and whole so they can live together. This time he will try to understand cloud, and face him seriously[w/o lies i'm guessing] and give him his love. Pride sighs and they leave towards the rifts. Thinking of medicine, makes Cloud recall that Sloth was a great alchemist but in this current time he has yet to step onto that path. Cloud mentions he likes to set something like 4-5k years of history but never really flesh it out in full detail so he has no idea what's going on with each devil in this time period. Cloud knows that the original history, the humans would be defeated and if Greed leaves the human world he thinks that the somethings may change, but just as they reach the battle front in 2 days, the Rifts start to crack open . Although Greed manages to keep the body alive but it doesn't improve its condition...just as they are about to enter the rift, Lust shows up. They start fighting and it seems like Lust has changed a bit, his previous behavior of frivolousness is gone and seems solemn and colder. Greed is reluctant to keep fighting as he's holding Cloud's body and most of his strength went into maintaining the body wrap to keep cloud's body alive. Suddenly Lust sees what Greed is holding and stops to ask about his condition. Greed didn't answer him and walked into thru the rift into the devil world. He realizes that Greed just walked with cloud into the demon world and detects Pride nearby. Lust criticizes Pride, thinking that he always dresses like in white even tho he's a psychotic devil but always have that gentlemanly facade on him. Lust didn't go into the rift as he tried to find information about Shen Yun, because he did not originate from the Devil world, but then where did he appear from...Ice Spirit Beasts has long been considered extinct..the life of such a creature is long and so how did he grow ....was it here in the human world or the devil's world...and how did he reach adulthood...without anyone one realizing his existence. Greed observes the lavender sky and reddish light filled with aura of blood, the devil world is dark, lonely and desolate..he feels familiar and even feels invigorated but notes that Pride's cultivation seems higher. Pride tells him that Greed was born in the devil world but it seems cloud was not. Greed discards his suspicious for a moment and wants to hurry to find a way to heal Cloud. Pride said that there is a great healer but he's already very old and rarely treats people now but is worried that he might charge a lot...but Greed doesn't care and ask him to lead the way. Cloud: it seems that Xiaoyan[greed] will recover his memories and join hands with Lust in order to kill Pride [because he caused Cloud to fall into this state] So they arrive and the Healer seems to remember Greed but Greed was sure he doesn't remember this man..however the old man sighed and then asked if he needed help..before Greed can answer there was a suddenly loud yelling and screaming 'Go away don't bring your bad luck to me! Don't come near, you cause disasters! and so on alto of abusive language towards a thin youth in grey. Even tho he was pushed, cursed, he remained impassive. I think the healer is called Yu Qing? and he just chased the kids away from the Youth. The old man looked at the youth and the youth greeted him as the headmaster? and there was marks of whips and bruises on the youth. The youth seems to be like a puppet...unmoved and silent. Pride looked with worry, that boy has the body of heaven[I'm not sure how accurate this is] The old man just sighs and talks about how he thought the prosperity accumulated over thousands of years can suppress the effects of the body of heaven but... Pride said he's already lucky he's still alive, much less to actually suppress the body of heaven. Cloud listens while in a coma and hears about the body of heaven which basically no matter where he goes, disaster follows him....and although it doesn't affect the body, it affects anyone near him. Cloud thought about it and wondered who had such a physique. YuQing[Healer] then tells Greed that he can definite heal Cloud and let him recover fully and seems like they have a good relationship since YuQing agreed to help Greed. Greed is grateful but at the same time he can't remember YuQing and YuQing said that he will eventally remember so don't worry. So YuQing asked bout the problem and went to research it in order to heal Cloud, and while waiting Greed always kept to Cloud's side and Greed though about his memories from he know vaguely recalls that he was born in the devil world and lived for a long time, his cultivation had a side effect and he became a child and had his memories sealed...but he's not sure as to who he is. YuQing called him [Shen Suiyan] So that really is his name but when Cloud picked him up he also called him that so...did cloud know who he was before? Greed felt uneasy because there's a feeling that something is outside his control and as if something will happen and right now is very critical because Cloud is still in a coma and he doesn't want anything bad to happen. So he decides to go talk to Pride and ask. Zerobaby: didn't expect Greed to be so popular, but also know a great healer Cloud: oh? Zerobaby: was I mistaken? Cloud: If there was a popularity ranking for the 7 devils then Zerobaby: Gluttony is definitely last Cloud: Greed can compete for last as well Zerobaby: ... Cloud: although xiaoyan[greed] has learned to love but he still separates the world into possession and trash. Before running into cloud, everything was trash in his eyes, how can he possibly have a good friend...there would only be sworn enemies that are anxious to see him die. This YuQing understands Greed and knows that he has amnesia and cloud can see that he hates Greed. Spoiler: Greed x Shen Yun x Lust 13 Cloud is wondering what YuQing is up to, because with pride and greed together obviously he cannot beat them after killing Cloud's body so there's something else he's trying in order to get revenge on Greed. YuQing seems to have a deep history with Greed, because he understands greed's nature, the fact that he gets amnesia due to his cultivation method. How can he be happy with just simply killing Cloud, if he must be planning to inflict pain to greed. Cloud is excited to find out what the old man is up to. Also Cloud wonder about pride's objective, If Pride claims to be the second as a black belly, who in the devil world would dare to claim first. To bring greed here there must be something he's after. Cloud noticed that the youth that YuQing claimed to wanna help suppress the body of heaven hasn't appeared again...although he claims he wants to save him but what is he up to after all, maybe Greed would be linked to this as well. Greed was being very careful with Cloud and never stopped maintaining the wrap so that cloud's body can hang on until he gets healed, he will not allow any errors to occur. Cloud didn't really change Greed's nature just taught him to learn to give to another person. In Greed's eyes, besides possession and trash, there's another thing that now exists and that is Cloud. Sadly he doesn't even know cloud's real name. So while Cloud was in a coma, Zerobaby provided some movies for him to watch [courtesy of DOS4.0 lmao] YuQing finally appears with a look of excitement and ecstasy and Greed asked if he's sure about the method to heal Cloud. YuQing said excitedly that he will absolutely restore Cloud fully. Greed felt a bit wary but couldn't pinpoint why, he frowned a bit but thanked YuQing. YuQing said there was no need to thank him as after Greed regains his memory then he will understand why YuQing is helping out so much. Greed suddenly felt a nagging thought but couldn't not recall..and YuQing distracted him by saying that he studied the damage of removing the Lust parasite and said he can reverse the damage. Cloud decided to pay careful attention ...because he started comparing living while being celibate for ever or dying ..and decided life w/o sex ...it might be better to never know than to know and lose it lol YuQing said that he guarantees that he can reverse the damage, its rare that greed can meet a loved one and it would be wrong if they cannot be intimate as his eyes flashed with a pleased look. Anyone can tell how much Greed cherishes Shen Yun, and YuQing knows just how ruthless Greed can be and now that he found this weakness..now that he's old, its worth dying in order to carry out his revenge. Greed I will make you suffer a living death. Ofc YuQing acts happy because he found a treatment method so he's not acting happy at all but ofc his purpose is not simply to heal. So he decides to hurry and start before Greed fully recovers his memories and so YuQing sealed off the entire area, not one seems to be around, no visitors or disciples are present, it seems he emptied the mountain before starting. Although Cloud hasn't grasp what YuQing is planning but he can feel his broken meridians healing and his destroyed gas field[...idk dantian lmao?] begin to come together and although his body feels weak, his cultivation is actually slowly recovering...not only that his body starts to regain its vitality... Cloud thought this YuQing hid his talents deeply but then he realized that Yuqing paid a heavy price in order to fully heal cloud. Yuqing gradually starts to deteriorate to resemble a skin bag of bones while cloud gradually recovers. Pride, observes this and thought that it was probably a forbidden technique to recover fully but he doesn't understand why YuQing would go so far to save Shen Yun, how does he intend to torture Greed...the amnesiac Greed is not normal for YuQing to go this far. Pride watches with interest to see what drama would play out. The process lasts 4 days and 5 nights and Cloud finally woke up and seeing this Greed was excited however when Cloud looked at Greed there was a look of despair and resentment in his eyes. YuQing at this point struggling to stand starts to smile, Greed asked Cloud about his condition and Cloud actually shrinks away from Greed...YuQing asked if Greed likes this gift he gave him. Greed in the instant of hearing those words his memories suddenly recovered. His temperament suddenly changed, no longer immature, or impulsive nor is he ignorant or confused. Greed started to smile, YuQing's eyes flashed with an obsessed light but soon replaced with fierce hatred and glared at Greed. Greed looked at YuQing with eyes full of mockery, YuQing always felt felt despised by Greed, from the moment he started to understand Greed, his nightmare started. He admired Greed, respect, worship and even love and he tried to find ways to catch up to him, wants greed to notice him, he struggled so much and finally showed up in front of Greed but in the end he was discarded like trash. YuQing thought he was special, different than others so that greed would care about him, but in Greed's eyes he wasn't worth more than a stone. YuQing tried so hard in order to be noticed but Greed doesn't even remember his name...in the end he was abandoned into the category of trash. Greed stared at YuQing and said that Yuqing should be prepared for what happens when he messes with greed's possessions. Yuqing said he's already dying, what can greed do, he saved cloud's life in order to let greed know the kind of pain that makes one want to die. Greed said that YuQing has gone senile with age, to think that greed would actually let him die, and its easy for greed to find all that is precious to Yuqing and make him suffer as he watches all he cares about get tortured to death in front of him. So the blood wrap thingies he used on Cloud i think its called Greed of life or something...anyway he uses that to take control and keep YuQing alive and while greed was dealing with that, Cloud told Zerobaby to activate Absolute Clarity. Zerobaby: So what did Yuqing do to you? Cloud: He flipped love and hate, so that lovers will be enemies and enemy will be loved...really vicious. Zerobaby: ... Cloud calmed down. Zero: um so are you..? Cloud: yes me being affected is normal because i do like Greed. Fortunately Cloud quickly activated Absolute Clarity otherwise getting proposals will be fairly difficult. YuQing is really tricky for doing things this way. Cloud is not deeply in love with Greed but he does like him. He personally raised this child for a few years and so ofc he likes him. Cloud likes Greed but there's no doubt he also likes Lust, after all romped together so many times.[rofl] If he is affected by what YuQing did then this will screw up things. Emotions can change the plans laid out, last time was the despair pill? [that's what pride used on youth ice spirit beast in order to make it easier to erase memories..], then there was the Lust parasite and so when Zerobaby offered the absolute clarity support skill he didn't hesitate to take it. Now it seems he made a great decision.
Lol, I've read ahead a few chapters and all I can say that the protag (Cloud) has a gift for dog blood! I applaud his schemes! The only person who can rival him in this aspect is Pride.
Spoiler: Greed x Shen Yun x Lust 14 Cloud got absolute clarity on so now he can freely act. Suddenly the roof was torn off and i think Lust appeared [said li feng but um <.<..i'm pretty sure that's not lusts name..lol] and said that he did not realize that Shen SuiYan was WuQingJun/Clear Mist Monarch [雾清君 - Mist/fog Clear/purge/pure Monarch] .... QingJun was the name that greed was known as in the Devil world and was known to be very ruthless. Greed had a palace built in a mist-filled fairyland-like summit known as the Mist Palace and so he became known as Mist Qing Jun. Although Pride has the same scorn for people but he keeps this hidden behind a facade while Greed expresses his disgust directly thus making a lot of enemies. Although Lust knew of QingJun but he didn't know that Greed was the same person and in the human world he did not take him seriously so he ended up lost to that boy twice, once in the devil world and then in the human world. Twice he lost his prey, so this time Lust will not lose this chance. [I'm not sure if i'm interpreting this right lol] Cloud: Zerobaby, how bright is Lust's portrait? Zerobaby: 2 corners Cloud: *laugh* Soon it will light up completely Zerobaby: ( w ) Greed's portrait is fully lit, all there's left is to confirm the marriage proposal and since he's fully recovered, if he asks now Greed will surely accept it. However, if he does this now, he won't be able to conquer lust and since that old man YuQing sacrificed himself, how can Cloud pass up on this opportunity to put it use. Greed and Lust starts fighting and ofc Pride backs off or this situation will quickly spiral out of control. Cloud then called out to Lust and reveals eyes of deep love and adoration. Although his voice wasn't loud but everyone heard him clearly...Greed was dazed and Lust was surprised and looked over. Cloud looked at him anxiously and told Lust to take him away...Greed quickly grabbed him and blocked his lips [maybe a kiss] and Cloud eyes wide with disgust. Greed saw this and felt his heart turn cold and pained as if being stabbed countless times. Lust isn't sure what happened but now he definitely will take advantage of this, between Lust and Greed it's hard to say who would win but Lust finger moved and shot out a white ball into the air and activated a dream illusion[i guess]. Cloud smiled in his heart but showed only resistance against Greed. The room wasn't very large so the dream set off quickly and even tho greed tried to react but he wasn't familiar with the dream illusion and also he was struggling with Cloud and so he got caught by the illusion. Cloud didn't even bother trying to resist the dream so again he saw the same dream illusion he saw at the battlefield the day he met Lust. [I didn't summarize that part because well >.> i couldn't quite make sense of it for some reason google was translating the names all wrong[names like louis, john, etc lol so i went to check it later on Bing's version] lol but basically he was back on earth again and his past favorite lovers on earth had changed suddenly into Pride and Envy, and they all wanted to seduce him and almost started an orgy fantasy but Zerobaby had ****blocked Cloud by chatting infinitely about all kinds of things so he couldn't become fully immersed into the dream rofl] Zerobaby: want to activate Absolute Clarity? Cloud: no Zerobaby was worried that the host would be seduced by 2 goblin?[um..i forget wat this meant~~..i guess evil or naughty?] Then zerobaby goes on about bout something else i can't make sense of....maybe a menage trois lol not sure] Cloud was getting uncomfortable and and wanted to activate the support skill when suddenly the illusion stopped and he didn't see anyone when he taken from behind ...[think he cursed but idk why google said grass lmfao] The suddenly violent pleasure almost made him blank out and Cloud almost cursed out loud. Lust missed touching Cloud but seeing that Cloud hasn't fully recovered yet he held back even tho he didn't want to stop. So eventually Cloud fell asleep and the next day he woke up to see Lust's peach eyes with a smile on his face which affected his heart. [downturn eyes i think also used to describe people with seductive/bedroom eyes, go google Zhang binbin] Cloud immediately went into Shen Yun's role and said Lust finally came back to him and pounced him... Lust actually wanted to let Cloud rest some more but can't control his urges and so...they ended up romping in the bed. The next few days Lust and Cloud didn't go anywhere as they always like a pair of newly wed couples constantly lovey dovey. Before Cloud was averse to him and cold but now Cloud is eager and this made Lust very happy and even more pleasurable [probably when they 'play' XD]. Lust vaguely grasped at what happened, YuQing was considered a godly healer and there seems to be bad blood between him and Greed, and so YuQing healed Cloud completely however he also switched his love and hate so that now he ends up loving Lust, this made Lust very happy so why would he bother fixing it. He only hoped that it will last forever. Lust was hiding cloud away from Greed , so why would Cloud let him have his way. Also Lust's portrait only lit up on the corners with no change at all, welp it's time to start torturing this devil. Spoiler: Greed x Shen Yun x Lust 15 So one day Cloud decided he was going to cook lunch for Lust, and they were being lovey dovey to each other and Lust never thought he would be the one to fall so deeply into pleasures of the flesh, after all he was the one that despised this kind of thing..it was so easy for one to become trapped and become the cause of one's downfall. Normally he would just seduce and once they fall in he would leave feeling triumphant. But now he just wants Cloud and he feels insatiable and never want to let Cloud go. Cloud must really love him as he started prepare lunch early in the morning. So Lust left to handle business and when he came back he caught the smell of something really good and so he walked in to see Cloud wearing a plain robe with the collar drooping down a bit at the back exposing his neck [i think?] and Lust was so tempted he immediately wanted to pounce. Cloud noticed that Lust was back and invited him to come eat the freshly made sweet osmanthus fish [it's a chinese dish made with osmanthus flowers, fish, dates, goji berries - ah i forgot to mention that um..that's Greed's favorite food, i just called it fish but apparently it's this specific dish that greed likes, but he seems to like a specific fish for this dish that's called Lin fish or something..it's near the palace they lived in the human realm] Hearing this Lust froze, because he actually hates fish the most. Where Lust was born it was in a harsh environment so the devils/demons there were more violent and there was a large lake there with a lot of bloodthirsty demon fish-type beasts. As the environment was bad there wasn't anything thing else to eat except fish, so he had no choice but to eat what was available...as a result Lust came to hate fish greatly. Cloud made a full table filled with all kinds of fish dishes [roflmao] and Lust showed an appalled face as he saw this. Cloud became 'puzzled' as he saw Lust's reaction and with a look of expectation in his eyes to see how happy Lust would be with the lunch Cloud prepared for him. Lust hid his disgust for the fish and realized that Cloud doesn't know he hates fish but why did he specifically make so much fish-dishes. Lust felt his heart sink but smiled at cloud, so cloud kissed Lust and Lust tried to take it further but Cloud insisted he eat first and before Lust can attempt to make cloud forget about the fish, cloud said he spent all morning preparing so Lust should eat it while its still hot. [lmao] Hearing this Lust heart softened but...its fish... So while Lust was thinking, Cloud pulled him to sit down and Lust looked at the table filled with with fish ...Cloud couldn't help but ask Lust what's wrong since he doesn't seem too pleased. Lust saw that Cloud was concerned and watched Lust's reaction, before Cloud wanted to use any means to get rid of Lust but now he wants to please lust so how can he continue to resist. Gritting his teeth he picked up the chopsticks and Cloud started to smile [for a different reason i'm sure lmao] So Lust tried a piece and it was better than what he expected and with Cloud watching him expectantly it tasted even better. Lust sincerely smiled and told cloud that it was delicious and then cloud told him that unfortunately he couldn't find his favorite fish, but once they return back to the human realm he can go catch it...Lust's smile stiffened. Lust immediately knew what Cloud was referring to, it was the Lin fish which was very tender but difficult to catch...this was Greed's favorite food. Lust felt pained as if his chest was pierced with rows of needles which made his brow crinkle, but Cloud didn't notice as he was happily smiling since it seems that he enjoyed taking care of him and seeing him happy. Lust knew that the time they spent together wasn't long but they were intimate countless times ...after all he used nefarious means to get Cloud and with his temperament, he would naturally not have Lust in his heart. At the time Lust thought that the more Cloud hated him, the stronger the urge to conquer him because if it was too easy then the game will be boring but after experiencing cloud's 'love' did he realize he didn't want that anymore. Cloud said it didn't matter that they can't go back, he's sure he can find new food in the devil world that will surely make Lust happy. [what does chongni mean? /beats google, ..ok..so it means spoiled , bing said so. Uh..ok lets pick...indulgent..will go back to correct that word] Cloud's words were full of indulgence because Greed was raised with love and coddling and after they became lovers, Greed was always cynical, so Cloud let him have his way even more. So Lust listening to all this love and affectionate words left a bitter taste in his mouth and then cloud turned to ask why Lust wasn't eating but Lust couldn't bear to continue to eat the dish that was made with love for Greed. So he just said he wanted to eat Cloud instead then pulled cloud closer and Cloud was startled but didn't push him away and indulged Lust. Lust enjoyed Cloud's indulgence and was immersed in the glow of the pleasure but then remembered that Cloud's heart was filled with thoughts of greed. Lust thought had complete possession of cloud, of Cloud's love and was reflected in Cloud's eyes...but realized that love wasn't for Lust but someone else. After they played til Cloud went to sleep exhausted, Lust left the room to destroy the table full of fish-dishes..until it reduced to dust and went back to cuddle with Cloud and he heard Cloud murmuring in his sleep heard him say 'QianLan you're still young don't... ' Cloud went silent but what Lust heard was enough to make his heart go cold. Young, no one called him young for a long time now, so even if he looks young but he's lived for a long time...Cloud clearly wasn't talking about Lust. In this sweet illusion, the cruel truth is still there. Cloud's love and hate has been flipped however the memories have been distorted and seemed to have flipped along with his feelings. Since he remembers what his lover likes and even the little details....even if his feelings have been flipped but instinctively he still thinks and loves someone else. Spoiler: Greed x Shen Yun x Lust 16 So one day Cloud told Lust he wants to go back to the human world for a visit [well..bet bing and google..one says return and the other says a trip so i say a visit lmfao] and Lust felt a bit uncomfortable at this. Cloud's request is reasonable after all he is the esteemed lord of the human as he alone changed the tide of the battle and safeguarded them for 10 years and so he's unable to to make an excuse. So lust just smiled and agreed. Zerobaby: he agreed?! Σ(゜ロ゜; ) Cloud; ... Zerobaby: Is lust stupid? why doesn't he find an excuse, the moment we return to the human world would mean that any moment can be found by Greed Cloud: ... Zerobaby: what..am i wrong? Cloud: Zerobaby is right, so smart. Zerobaby: QAQ, I don't think so, you sound indifferent. That's because Lust doesn't need to find an excuse due to Shen Yun's nature. Cloud sighed and said to return to the human world, there must be rift cracks in the boundary and then there will be a devil invasion. Lust had a tiny flash in his eyes and said If the cracks no longer occur then we stay in the devil world? Zerobaby: ..... adults world ...baby doesn't understand ｢(ﾟﾍﾟ) Cloud looks at Lust with deep affection in his eyes and smiled and promised with an ok. With no rifts, the human realm will be safe, so Shen Yun will ofc only be concerned with his loved one. Even knowing that Cloud isn't seeing Lust with such sentiment, Lust willingly deceive himself and kisses Cloud with lingeringly affection. In this love nest, everyday lust seeing cloud's deep love and affection is like a knife to his heart, because Cloud remembers clearly the habits of Greed and as such this contrasts the difference between Greed and Lust which is constantly stir up Lust as if Cloud was feeding sweetened poison into Lust's mouth one by one. As though playing with Lust's heart, he can only swallow it down while burning his throat and with a smile say that it's sweet. Cloud was feeling pretty cheerful. Great sex life, daily abuse of Lust, lust can only humbly take it like getting his teeth broken and forced to swallow the blood and not complain. Zerobaby: *soft-hearted with eyes looking teary* poor Lust Cloud: he's not dead Zerobaby: He really loves you or he wouldn't tolerate this.. Cloud paused hearing this. Zerobaby: *feeling sorry for lust, can't help but feel a bit of affection* his portrait has lit up in 3 corners so he's not too far from being fully lit. Cloud: Lust's love, Shen Yun doesn't not want it. Zerobaby: QAQ A few days later, Lust can't accompany Cloud every day, because he needs to hide the fact that the rifts are cracking open, so he would rush away to hurry up and seal it then rush back again, but doing this so many times he started to get tired. In order to get Lust to relax, Cloud no longer 'stabs' at him but gave him some sugar. Lust is aware that Cloud still instinctively thinks of Greed, but he started to subtly change this. Instead of saying he doesn't like fish, he starts steering his interest towards other food, he doesn't reject heavy clothes and accessories but will start including clothes he prefers into the clothes that Cloud prepares for him. The changes are minuscule and hidden to notice after all people are constantly changing and Greed today and tomorrow will be different. Doing this is clever as time passes, Shen Yun's memory and instincts pertaining to Greed will start to fade, so that in the end he won't be able to discern the difference of who he loves between Lust and Greed. Maybe Cloud will stay with him. Cloud realizes what Lust is doing but he knows that this is needed to progress so he goes along with Lust and encourages it. So when Lust returns home he doesn't see the table with fish-dishes but 2 jars of wine and 2-4 stacks of side dishes also a loosely dressed Cloud. Seeing this Lust's exhaustion is swept away and his heart immediately warmed, this feeling lust never experienced before. This man is Jian? [Jian is mentioned again =_= its written in alphabets so uh... <.<..i'm going to make a wild guess...so greed called him jian and cloud was hurt by it but lust is also thinking of him as this so...i don think Lust means it in a malicious manner...so maybe seducer? or a player perhaps lol] [Uh..well i'll try my best to word this] It's like a person pulled out from freezing waters and was grateful with just a smoking torch, who would complain about a room that's warm enough to make one sweat. [so i think he was ok with the tidbit he got but he will not complain if he can have it all] Cloud loves wine just like Lust so even tho he's giving sweetness to Lust he decided to poke him a bit," Just because your grown, you shouldn't over indulge in the cups [referring to the wine] [lmao..so like this next sentence google and bing is totally opposite ..google says lust didn't wrinkle his brow but bing says he did ...so w/e.] So Lust heard this and said that people tend to change, and cloud said that in a few years Lust will see more people and maybe...[implying he will love others]. Lust seriously looked at Cloud and said that he only loves cloud and this fact will never change and Cloud hearing this his heart shook and looked up at Lust and said that he will also never change. Lust drank the wine and thought to himself and hopes that Cloud will change [to love lust that is ]. So they drank a lot that night and made love and normally the character of Shen Yun is reserved and although as an Ice spirit was a bit wild, but he has been with Lust, but he would never go too far with Greed. So this night Cloud got drunk and he got confused and i think the memories are mixing up so he became unrestrained with Lust and so both of them were pretty happy that night because they felt their efforts paid off. So they were like a perfect loving newlyweds that night. [So basically love/hate flip so Lust is now his love but with the memories of greed fueling it..so to speak Shen yun wouldn't normally lose control with greed.][I think he meant lose control over his human form into his ice spirit form the way he does with lust like that time greed voyeur on them XD] Spoiler: Greed x Shen Yun x Lust 17 The next day Cloud said to Lust that he never got to look around the devil world ever since he arrived. Lust asked if he wants to go out and Cloud nervously asked if it was ok, Lust said of course because he wouldn't keep Cloud locked away. So Cloud revealed a relieved face and his eyes reflected joy, Lust noted this and and thought that Greed was too possessive to the point of being unreasonable to make Cloud anxious about asking to go outside. However it won't take long before Cloud will only remember Lust and not worry about Greed anymore... just simply touring the devil world with Cloud is ok, he can easily avoid Greed... since he has powers over illusions and dreams so together with his instrument he can pull people into an illusion and keep them there. The 'palace' that Cloud was in was actually placed in a city downtown?[not sure bout this] and so except for Lust there's no one that can figure out what's real or false. Cloud curious looked at Lust's illusion and it looked so simple yet he couldn't see anything out of place at all. So Lust took Cloud to tour around the devil world for a few days and try out different food. They arrive in a village surrounded by red maple forest and Cloud saw a the youth that was covered in bruises, cuts, mud and the clothes is in rags with exposed skin covered in scars. However what attracted Cloud's attention was not this but his features that reminded him of Sloth. Lust also looked over and saw him and Cloud immediately revealed a face of distress and told Lust that they needed to bring Sloth back home, Lust was stunned when he heard this. Cloud said he felt sorry for him[sloth] being homeless and the palace is pretty large anyway, why would it matter with having one more person, Cloud ofc knows that Lust doesn't want to, but he turned around upset and faced Lust saying..Don't worry, even if i take him home its not the same as you...[seems familiar...like Pride and Chu Muyun pfft] hearing this Lust changed his mind and said nothing will change. Cloud seems flustered as he wanted to explain and Lust said that Cloud falling in love with him[lust] and taking him home is unrelated...Cloud didn't understand what lust means and so Lust said that Cloud love for Lust grew along with him until finally Cloud loves [lust emphasizes this part] the current adult Lust. Cloud stunned and he gently smiles as he told Lust yes and so Lust asked if Cloud loves the current him and now Cloud is a bit confused by him asking again and answers that he loves the present lust. Lust knows that the answers are due to his misleading questions but he can't help but deceive himself and becomes happy and he's eager to thoroughly love cloud. So now that Cloud got Lust's answer he turned to the youth and tried to talk to him but Sloth was indifferent to cloud but he asked if Sloth wanted to go with him. Then a stranger nearby told him that he shouldn't take the youth home because he's a walking disaster, anyone that is involved with him meets with death or misfortune..and he talks about YuQing's mountain that got destroyed. Cloud frowned and Lust didn't want cloud to hear anything that had to do with YuQing's mountain [because of the love/hate flip happened there] and so he just said that if cloud wants they can just take the youth back home and Cloud agreed. So they take Sloth home and otw back Cloud observes him and technically speaking Sloth should not look like a teen right now because he's not like Greed where his cultivation would cause him to turn into a child as a side effect upon break through. Cloud said that sloth was set and something bout the word born >.> um..i think its important but im not sure how to interpret this...so he says that Sloth is expressionless because he has no heart?, so he doesn't understand any feelings at all and thus has no feelings, but this current Sloth seems to have deviate from from what his knows. Well Cloud set that there would be a mention of a 4k history in his book but he never fleshed it out so it's bound to have something out of his expectation...after all he did not create this world he was a man not god. Cloud doesn't rush to do anything with Sloth, because Lust is was very generous in letting him take Sloth back so if he suddenly gives too much attention to sloth he might fail in conquering Lust. So he just found a courtyard for Sloth and almost all of his attention is on Lust.. So everyday is harmonious until one day Cloud suddenly said he hasn't made fish for Lust for a long time now but Lust wasn't affected and held cloud close as he mentioned he brought back 2 jars of Red Tang Altar wine [...idk if i arranged the name correctly] Cloud immediately forgets about the fish and so Lust said that ambiguously that he would like to use cloud's body to drink the wine tonight. (⁄ ⁄^⁄ᗨ⁄^⁄ ⁄) Cloud turns a little red and indulgently said that Lust has really grown up. So Lust smiles and said how eager is cloud to try? So Cloud was tempted and turned to kiss lust and ..play time~ Spoiler: Greed x Shen Yun x Lust 18 So in the end over half the wine was wasted and after cleaning up Cloud was still flushed. He wasn't sure if it's due to his emotions or the alcohol well it didn't matter anyway feeling good from it is fine as long as he doesn't become addicted. So while leaning on Lust panting a bit, Cloud mentions how peaceful it has been since the rift hasn't cracked open and so Shen yun would be concerned about the human realm however since no rifts opens that means its also peaceful so he doesn't care about going back, but he does recall sometimes. Lust wanted to ask about Shen Yun's origins since he searched for information about him and it seems like he appeared out of nowhere, for Greed to appear like that is not strange after all he came out of the rift but for Shen Yun it's strange as he wasn't in the devil world either..so where exactly did he come from... and although he wants to ask now is not the time because he wants cloud to be completely in love. So when Lust is out Cloud would spend some time with Sloth and this day he asked if Sloth's injuries recovered, and if sloth gotten use to the food [ i think] and sloth indifferently answered it's fine, and so Cloud asks his name, and Sloth paused while Cloud looks at him and then after a moment he said his name was Jun Mo and so Cloud smiled and said Sloth can call him Cloud. Sloth just watches indifferently and then cloud asked if he was willing to learn some self-defense arts for fitness? [tai chi maybe idk] Cloud saw that Sloth doesn't have the slightly bit of cultivation and so Sloth just shook his head and cloud said that its easy for beginners and to try it out to see if he likes it. So Sloth cuts him off and said that the stranger was right in what he said about the disasters and people involved with him eventually dying. Cloud recalls what he heard at YuQing's mountain and realized that the youth with the body of heaven is Sloth. [...i guess he curses? hell eggs or something like that lmfao] Sloth was suppose to be the easiest to conquer and yet he has the body of heaven which prevents anyone from getting close to him. Literally anyone that comes near him will die even if they are just standing in the crowd and happens to just look at him...and they will just die. Although Cloud isn't afraid to die but in order to conquer sloth this will be a tricky one. Cloud just smiles at Sloth and said that it had nothing to do with him and not to mind it... Sloth has heard this many times but afterwards that same person would then look at him with resentment and malice. Cloud understood what Sloth thought even tho he was expressionless but he's not worried since only time will prove it and looked at the time and so turned to leave and bid sloth goodbye and as he walked to the door the first disaster befell him before he made it out of the courtyard. The body of heaven really deserves its reputation, Cloud didn't even touch sloth and already disaster arrives, Cloud walked thru the threshold and the door beam collapsed. Lust would also keep the entire palace in good shape so there's no reason for this door beam to collapse. Cloud only lifted 1 finger as his Ice Spirit Beast Ice shield bounced it off, when he looked back at Sloth, there was no change in Sloth's expression at all. Cloud just lifted a finger and instantly restored the beam back in place as if nothing happened at all. Cloud smiled at Sloth and turned to leave. After he got far enough away he looked at his hand and there was a very light scratch and although there wasn't even pain...it seems that a splinter had manage to penetrate his shield and scratch him. For ordinary people a door beam falling on them maybe fatal but for Cloud it was not dangerous at all...not to mention he had an innate shield active...even those with the same cultivation is not enough to hurt him...this Body of heaven is no joke. In order to conquer Sloth, first he must find a way to solve the problem, this obstacle that is body of heaven [i almost feel like calling it heavenly disaster physique lol]. So here it says that a daoshi can help...um.i think daoshi is a Taoist priest..not sure k, and then something about wanting to invite Buddha but that's no easy task. [/shrug] For now he'll put it out of mind and head back to the palace to heal that scratch. [not sure why he would need medicine <.<;] Spoiler: Greed x Shen Yun x Lust 19 Lust returned and i think Cloud went up to him and laughed ask him what he wants to eat since he returned early and Lust gave him a wink and said he got something good and if Cloud wanted to try it. Lust shows cloud 2 fruits but cloud doesn't know what it is. Lust calls it Hejin fruit. Since Shen yun didn't originate from the devil world he has no idea what it is and asked him what he wanted to do with it. Lust just says that just to eat it with him, Cloud looks at Lust suspiciously and asked that its not a bad thing right. [Sooo..i think Lust is flirting but uh i kinda find it hard to understand due to the the mtl so wild guess] like Lust says its bad ...just as bad like the way I do you. Cloud understood and cheeks flushed and said what nonsense. Lust roguishly nipped Cloud's ear and said won't eat it? So cloud says they don't need it since they have no problems romping everyday anyway, but Lust says he wants to see cloud lose control and cloud felt heat rise up but then sternly looked at lust and said is he implying that cloud didn't before? Lust gently grinds his hip into Cloud as he says he wants to see the other side of cloud. Lust misses the wild side of cloud when he was under the urges of the lust parasite and the current Shen Yun really doesn't let loose so after thinking a while he came up with this way to entice Cloud and Cloud didn't mind it because Lust portrait is close to being fully list so he'll just go along with it. Cloud said that as Lust grows up, he gets even naughtier and Lust just kisses him and asked if cloud didn't like it, so cloud responds by turning to kiss him after a while... Lust looks at Cloud solemnly and asked cloud if he is willing to eat the fruits with him and Cloud is cautious at hearing this because he vaguely feels there's something in his words that's he's not catching..but then has Lust looks at him he decides to smile and say he's willing. So they both ate the fruit and Cloud lets go of his inhibitions and just enjoy the night of endless rounds with Lust. Soon Cloud realizes the fruit isn't just lowering his inhibitions but when they both climaxed he felt a rise in his strength and vitality. Hejin fruit - Hejin wine [Hejin wine - its related to the Chinese custom of couples wine, they drink it together on their wedding night - found this on a website bout hejin cups - "in ancient times, a similar ceremony called Hejin was also widely practiced. 'He' means join together; while 'jin' means gourd ladle, which is made by cutting a gourd in half. As the bride and groom hold a gourd ladle to drink wine, the hejin ceremony symbolizes a harmonious matrimonial life."] So its mentioned that the hejin fruit is like that except it means it in a real way rather than symbolic because when a couple eats a pair of fruits together and have intercourse and climax at the same time, the fruits will react and evoke a strong force that allows two people to share their life/vitality and so in a sense this is a true combining into one and afterwards the weaker one of the 2 will gain a surge in power in proportion. Cloud just gained half of Lust's huge vitality. This combining into one is like sharing thick and thin and for people who are equal power its fine, but for couples who are not equal, the stronger one of the couple will one-sided pay. Cloud's cultivation is not low but it's not comparable to Lust. If one was to focus on cultivation then with time he can catch up however when it comes to vitality, this is something one is born with..different races have their differences in vitality. Even as an Ice Spirit beast his vitality doesn't come anywhere close to Lust's [because the 7 devils are practically immortal]. From finding this hejin fruit and then he had Cloud eat it together with him, Lust's greatest wish is obvious. He wants Cloud to be with him together forever. He's not Greed, not a child, he's an adult although lewd, but he's a mature adult with an adult rational. So Lust knows that in order to really get Cloud what he needs to pay in order to achieve it. Zerobaby: ... Cloud: Don't Zerobaby: QAQ Cloud: good Zerobaby: Just a little bit .....abuse. Cloud: .... Lust surprised Cloud with this move, the effects of this fruit is really foul, chinese artifact [?idk] if one's will is not strong, one would lose control. This fruit for Lust is barely damaging, Cloud is very clear on how the devils are set up. They are as close to immortal that one can be, unlimited vitality, infinity divided by 2 is still infinity, so even if u share there's no harm. With a little bit time Lust's vitality will be restored and although knowing this Cloud was touched. Only Cloud knows that the devils have unlimited vitality but the devils themselves do not know this...and so Lust made this decision w/o knowing this fact. This decision that Lust made was not any different from ordinary people, he willingly gave up half of his vitality in order to share with Cloud. The meaning of this will not diminish just because Lust has unlimited vitality. Cloud understood what lust wanted when he did this but also understood his thoughts. Zerobaby: Successful conquer Cloud: ... Zerobaby: Portrait is not fully lit but it is successful Cloud did not propose marriage so how... Zerobaby had a gloomy face. Cloud understood: It seems i do not have to do the proposing in order to conquer The meaning of the Hejin fruit along with Lust asking him if he was willing and then cloud said he was willing and so coupled with last night and the effect of the fruit...this was not only a proposal but also a marriage. Zerobaby feeling softhearted: QAQ, Don't abandon him so soon. Cloud sighed: Don't worry. The next day cloud would be aware of what happened and looks at Lust with anxiety and lust just smiles at him..Lust said that he loved Cloud many times but always felt he couldn't fully express his feelings and the Hejin can't really represent the depth of his feelings but its better than mere words. Cloud looks at him unblinking and Lust leans close to cloud and asked if cloud can forgive him if he did something wrong...Cloud is not really sure how to express how he felt right now, but he felt anger, distress that lust didn't care about himself. He also felt moved and full of happiness that he doesn't know what to say, he feels more committed to Lust due to this. Lust waited for his answer and Cloud looked at him solemnly and said that no matter what lust did, he will not be angry. Lust smiled and a slight dejection flash thru his eyes but his smile is real, so he kissed cloud and said he really loves him. Cloud knows that Lust means it but can Shen Yun accept it? Love is exclusive, Cloud would not reject what Lust did but he's not Shen Yun. After he conquered Pride he did not linger and immediately left but he's nicer to Lust. Although he succeeded and he's able to leave, but he chose not to and spent 3 years with him. Time changes everything not to mention Lust who was completely devoted. So Shen Yun fully adapted to Lust and he forgot Greed, he remembered all of Lust's preferences and changed to completely love Lust. Cloud gave himself fully to Lust, no longer limited to just a physical relationship. Lust hoped that this can continue forever, but still the end will eventually arrive. Cloud dragged this out for as long as he's able but others will not wait. 3 years is enough time for Lust to sink deeply into Shen Yun but also long enough that Shen Yun would find it difficult to distinguish between the two. Time is running out. Spoiler: Greed x Shen Yun x Lust 20 During this time, every now and then Cloud would visit Sloth but didn't really interact too much, just chat with him and teach him and give him some books to read and each time zerobaby is very nervous because it was his responsibility to keep an eye on the disaster and warn Cloud so that he can protect himself in time. Something about walking out of the hospital? and that he experienced a lot of mishaps during this time period whenever he visited Sloth. Haven't even started conquering and already going through a lot. So after 4 years, Pride finally shows up. Pride shows up dressed like Lust and also changed his temperament to resemble lust to lure Cloud out of the area of illusion. Cloud questions 'Lust' if there was something wrong because he returned earlier than expected but 'Lust' responded by saying he missed Cloud...the way he spoke and expression matches up with Lust perfectly, if it wasn't because Cloud had spent 10 years with pride he wouldn't have been able to distinguish between the two, twins are really foul play. Pride saw Cloud blush a bit as he said that its broad daylight right now and to stop being naughty...and felt his heart skip a bit... but he had to hurry to take Cloud out of the area of the illusion before he can do anything or Lust will notice. So he said he wants to take Cloud along to travel and cloud ofc goes along with it. Since Pride is Lust's twin he understands how its works to an extend and end up taking Cloud back to YuQing's mountain[which is gone now btw] once they leave out of the area of the illusion Pride drops the facade and cloud immediately goes on alert and Pride said that his lover searched all over for cloud and nearly flipped the devil world upside down and that Lust has been deceiving him all this time. Cloud denies this, that he knows Lust is his lover and that Pride is lying but Pride pointed out that Cloud followed him out and can he even tell when Lust is lying to him. So Pride shows something like a recording of that time when Greed was at YuQing's mountain constantly feeding his vitality into the Greed of life in order to keep Cloud alive and then saw the moment YuQing healed him and flipped his emotions and then greed gained his memory and Lust showed up to battle him..Cloud paled and then Pride said that where they were standing was YuQing's mountain and now its gone. Cloud was shocked to hear Greed and turned around to see Greed with tears in his eyes..Cloud was stunned and while he was dazed Greed walked up to hold him and took him back to the Mist Palace, he changed it so that it was a reflection of the Lin Palace in the human realm and so Cloud was shocked to see that it looks just like the palace in his memories where he lived with Lust..but why is this place exactly the same. So Shen Yun love/hate flipped mode, he questions how can he believe what they say and hate Lust, the person who loved him to the marrow and then he turned to confront Greed and started ranting with hateful words about how Greed used nefarious and dirty means to control him in order to use his body and said he'd rather die than see him again. Greed tried to say that it was Lust that did all these things as he's aware that it's the result of Cloud's feelings being flipped but Cloud talks about how Lust was taught and raised by him, how can he do such a thing, he also said that Lust was young at the time how would he even have the urge for these things, now that we're not in the human world i don't need to comply with your blackmail. These are words that Shen Yun wouldn't normally say but Cloud said it to Greed in order to see that after he regained all his memories would he return to being selfish. So greed hearing all this brought back memories of that time and he just started to regret all the 'ifs' that he should have done but due to him being immature, selfish and obsessively wanting to possess Cloud he didn't. So he apologized and said he will never do it again, he said that cloud didn't have to worry, when he removes the curse[ i think] cloud will understand but he stops and tells cloud he will have to talk to him later and then he casts a spell i think...some sort of light curtain ..[i'm not sure what its suppose to do but he had to activate the support skill I'm under the impression that it's suppose to remove or flip the curse? that cause the flip of Cloud's love/hate] After greed left he activated Absolute clarity and Zerobaby activated it instantly as he was crying the entire time thru the drama. [tbh i think he was probably spamming tear emotes lmao] Cloud thought that if his love and hate flipped again how will he handle the problem...flipping love and hate ..how can it possibly be easy...after all people's souls is not so easily manipulated...then how could there be something like eternal love. Clouds eyes were somewhat downcast Zerobaby: Lust has arrived Cloud: mmhm Zerobaby: what to do...the two of them Cloud: Baby, don't get too immersed in the drama. Zerobaby: But they really will....' he didn't say the last 3 words [kill each other maybe?] Cloud: Pride and Envy also had this situation Zerobaby: But they....'Greed and Lust is not the same, they're obviously significantly more[i guess the depth of hate is stronger ..or maybe cloud's feelings for them is stronger] Cloud: You can't drag this out, the problem needs to be cut. Zerobaby: QAQ! Cloud: Don't forget our purpose. How come the host ends up reminding the system...DOS4.0 really needs at least 16G so that he can add more emote packs with _(：3 」∠ )_
