Time Sickness

Just like what he always does in the past years, Lou grabs the improvised watering can, walks to his favorite plant and starts to water it.

While watering the cactus that is not growing even while he takes care of it for an unknown number of years, Lou is humming while looking outside.

Looking at the sky that never changes, Lou whispered," A good weather again, not humid, not too hot, and not too windy."

After watering his favorite cactus, Lou walks inside of his improvised house made from sand blocks that are paused in time and starts to look at the pictures in the plank.

"You're smiling again this time Miss, you're smiled really makes my day complete."

"Also you, the girl with mischievous eyes, it seems you are in a good mood again."

"And you the girl with bubbly smiled…"

As Lou walks around his collection, he starts to talk to the pictures again as he usually does, saying jokes, greeting and sometimes teasing them, but even though Lou is chatting with them, the pictures are always pictures, it will never replay Lou.

After hours of chatting to the pictures, Lou then starts his morning practice, flying at a fast speed, Lou appears on a sandy beach.

"Let's practice my Authority of Time today."

"Sand of Time"

A golden hourglass appears beside Lou, he then grabs a couple of coconuts and throws it in the air then lets it fall normally.

He then grabs the hourglass and the golden sand below starts to flow upward.

"Spatial Looping"

The coconut in the ground starts to move and slowly starts to float in the air, like a rewind, the coconut travels back just like what Lou first did, then the coconut disappears and appears in the ground again and rewind as what happened just now.

He did it a couple of times until he felt content, after that Lou raised his hand then grip it firmly, then the void started to collapse, the sea started to crumble while the space started to crack.

After that, Lou sued the Hourglass again, and this time, the spatial damage started to regenerate and come back to its original form.

Then time past by, Lou's training stop after couple of hours, because Lou forgot even how to eat and drink, Lou lost the concept of eating and drinking, Lou also start to lose the concept of sleeping so he can only stop his time and place a timer so that the concept of "Sleep" is still there even though he only use the time to cheat his self.

Lou then starts to fly back to his next, just what he always did, he waters the plant, looks at the pictures and then lies down on a rocking chair.

"Spatial Looping"

The rocking chair then starts to move back and forth, the speed is the same in the start and as the chair moves, an infinite loop of boredom for Lou.

"What should i do later?"

"Maybe i should fly to the west and play around,"

"Or maybe I fly to the east and fly at the showy mountain."

"Ummm... maybe the weather in the south is good for a family picnic…."

"..... But, what is family again?"

Lou starts to think hard but he can't remember what his family is," Well never mind, maybe it's not important at all...."

Slowly a water droplet starts to come out from his eyes, Lou is confused , touches his cheek and sees water coming out from his eyes.

"Water? Is it raining again?"

Lou was confused, he knew what water is, but he didn't know why it came out from his eyes, he didn't know what it was, he only knew that it was a water commit from his body.

Lou who is expressionless lies down while tears come out from his eyes, he doesn't know what is happening but it's already natural for Lou to tear up for some reason.

...

Ding! The server will be online in 5... 4….. 3... 2... 1...

Ding! System Update Complete.

System,' Nice to meet you Host, it seem that you finally complete your training.'

'.... Who?' Lou confusedly looked around, he felt he heard something inside of him calling him.

System,' Host?'

'Whos calling at me?' Lou asked.

System,' It's me Host, what the matter Host?'

"Host? What's that? And who are you?"

System,'..... Time Sickness.... What a mess."

"Time sickness, what's that?" Lou asked.

System,`` It seems that you are infected by a Tiem Sickness Host, a type of sickness that Immortals usually have after years of isolation, or even years of sleeping."

"But, I'm always awake."

System," Yes you are, and it seems that you are already at a dangerous level."

"I feel fine, I don't feel anything at all, and I never get sick, or maybe I can't remember when I last got sick, and what is sickness again?"

Lou felt confused, he didn't know what this unknown entity was saying to him, it only made him more confused.

System," Time Sickness, a type of sickness that will cause the patient to lose his memory as time goes by, at first you will lose the ability to remember some minor importance until you finally forget everything, even the things like sleeping or eating."

"And based on my scan, Host, you are severely affected, I can't see any type of emotion at all in you."

"Emotion?"

Ding! Special Treatment Start, Time Start, Welcome back host."

Lou felt the air start to move, he looked up and saw the white thing above is strat to move around.

System,' You need to start to get proper treatment Host, do you want to start."

"Sure, I don't have anything important to do." Lou said.

System," Then let's go back, for now, I think you will remember and cure fast if we move back to your room."

"Let me get my treasure first," Lou take the pictures and the cactus and store it inside of his special storage and after checking for the last time, Lou finally left his nest.

Lou then appeared inside of his hotel, Lou looked around and felt that this room is pretty nice, not like what he bed is as hard as a rock, his bed is fluffy and soft.

"Lou-sama, are you awake? The breakfast is ready." Goemon's voice rang outside.

She then opens the door and walks inside, she sees Lou expressionless looking at him, she feels something is not right for his Lord.

"Lou-sama?"

"Lou-sama? Who's that? And who are you?"

"....."
