The Return Of The God Level Assassin

[MASHTER, did you hear that? Your brother called Eclipse the cutest!]

Luo Yan heard Eclipseʼs overly excited voice in his mind. [Yes, I heard.]

[Heʼs now my fourth favorite person.]

”Did he say something?” Luo Ren asked when he saw his brother chuckling.

”He said youʼre now his fourth favorite person,” Luo Yan said, repeating what Eclipse had said.

Luo Ren raised one of his brows. ”Only the fourth?”

Eclipse looked tangled when he heard that, as if he was thinking if he could move Luo Renʼs position higher. And then, finally making his decision, he said in Luo Yanʼs mind - [Mashter, tell your brother that Eclipse could promote him as long as he could continue being good to Eclipse.]

”He said he could promote you as long as you continue being good to him,” Luo Yan said.

Luo Ren laughed when he heard that. ”Your pet is not only cute but also very entertaining.” The little fox appeared really happy when he heard that. ”What name did you give him?”

”Eclipse. Good name, right?”

”Yes. Our Yan Yan certainly have better naming sense than Xiao Jin.”

”Brother, I feel a bit insulted having my naming sense compared with Ah Jin.”

”You do have a point there,” Luo Ren said amusedly.

”Then, Brother, how about we test your naming sense?” Luo Yan said. ”Whatʼs your game name account?”

”Thranduil,” Luo Ren answered with a bit of pride in his tone.

Thrandu- what? Although itʼs not funny like Luo Jinʼs, itʼs definitely quite a mouthful. ”Where did you get the name?”

”Heʼs Legolasʼ father from The Hobbit. I did think of using the name Legolas but it would be kind of in your face, so I just chose his father.”

Luo Yan felt the corners of his mouth twitching. He was suddenly thankful that his older brother changed his mind and didnʼt use ʼLegolasʼ. Being an elf and then also using that name was truly a bit overboard. See, even him who was not a fan of the movie franchise and also the books still knew who Legolas was. At least this Thranduil was not as equally famous as his elven son.

”Is it a good name?” Luo Ren asked, his face obviously asking for praise.

Luo Yan also didnʼt want to tease him and just said, ”Yes. Truly better than Ah Jinʼs.”

”Anything is better than Xiao Jinʼs.”

Luo Yan was about to response when he heard a notification sound from his Status Window – meaning that someone sent him a private message. He saw that it was from Yu Jiao and quickly opened it.

Vulcan: [Yan Yan, what time are you and the others going to Safehaven Harbor? Can I, perhaps, go with you? If itʼs not, thatʼs okay too.]

Luo Yan felt a bit helpless seeing the last sentence. That was very Yu Jiao. He quickly replied.

Noctis: [Of course, itʼs okay. Iʼll send you a special pass so you can just directly teleport to Yunyueʼs headquarters. Then we can just all go Safehaven Harbor together.]

Vulcan: [This… is this okay? Wonʼt it be too much trouble?]

Noctis: [What trouble? Youʼre my friend, how could it be troublesome? Besides, youʼve already met all my team mates. You know theyʼre not the kind of people who would think badly of you just because you went to our headquarters with a special pass.]

After sending that reply, he also sent the special pass to Yu Jiao.

Vulcan: [Okay, I know. Thank you, Yan Yan.]

Reading that last reply, Luo Yan could imagine that Yu Jiao was probably blushing in shyness right now. Hen then sent a message to Luo Jin telling him that Yu Jiao would be coming to their headquarters.

”Yan Yan?” Luo Ren called when he noticed that his brother hadnʼt responded for quite a while.

”Oh, sorry. I just answered a message from Jiao Jiao,” Luo Yan said. ”It might seem like I was just staring into space but thereʼs a Status Window in front of me. Brother might not know this, but a playerʼs Status Window is only visible to themselves.”

Luo Ren didnʼt care much about the last part of what Luo Yan said. His attention was all focus on the part where he mentioned Yu Jiao.

He felt a slight bump in his heart remembering the awkward tall girl with big glasses. Then he suddenly realized what Luo Yan reading a message from her meant. ”She also plays the game?”

Luo Yan nodded. ”Sheʼs actually quite famous in the game. Sheʼs considered as the number one Blacksmith in the game. Itʼs one of the classes here that a player can choose.”

Luo Ren was a bit surprised hearing that. Being number one in something in this game meant that one should be a hardcore gamer, right? He didnʼt really take her for one.

”Does she often play this game?” he asked a bit worriedly.

Yu Jiao was already a third-year high school student. Itʼs the most important and busiest year on a high school studentʼs life. Because it was the year that they were being readied for the college entrance examination.

He knew his brothers were playing the game every night. Luo Jin might be overdoing it sometimes. But Luo Yan had never slept late. He knew that the other had always tried to sleep before nine in the evening. So, they had never worried that the game might become a bad influence on him.

But what about Yu Jiao?

Hearing his brotherʼs question, Luo Yan kind of had an idea on why he asked that. ”Iʼm not really sure. But Brother should not worry. Jiao Jiao has a pretty good ranking in school. Sheʼs very smart. It wouldnʼt be hard for her to get admitted to a top university. Besides, I think Jiao Jiao had no problem managing her time appropriately.”

Luo Ren nodded, thinking that his brother had a good point.

”Why did she sent you a message?” he just thought of asking.

”She was asking if she could go together with us to Safehaven Harbor. I said yes. Weʼll meet her once we arrived at the teamʼs headquarters.”

Then, Luo Yan suddenly remembered Yu Jiaoʼs avatar. He glanced sideways at Luo Ren. Well, his brother would definitely be in a surprise once he saw Yu Jiao. He decided not to spoil the surprise for him.

Luo Ren stopped when he heard that they were going to meet Yu Jiao. He looked at his brotherʼs fancy clothes and then down at his overly normal clothing.

”Yan Yan, can you accompany me to buy some new clothes first?” he asked with a smile.

Luo Yan turned to his brother and he already had an idea on why the other suddenly asked that. A knowing smile appeared on his lips. ”Of course.”
