The Return Of The God Level Assassin

LUO YAN glanced back at Cernos City that was getting smaller and smaller by the second. He only had a brief look at it earlier. He saw that the setting of the city was like an ancient middle-eastern city. Itʼs not that the NPCs were wearing turbans or similar clothing style, itʼs simply the atmosphere. In fact, while gazing down at the city, he almost felt that he could hear some BGM from that Disney movie – Alladin.

”We can go back and look around the city once weʼre done,” Shen Ji Yun suddenly said.

Luo Yan looked at the other and then smiled. Without telling this to the other himself, Shen Ji Yun still managed to guess what he was thinking. It seemed like this guy was getting better and better at understanding him. Maybe if he could understand human emotions more, he would probably have already realized that his feelings were actually the same as what the other had for him.

But with Shen Ji Yun opening up bit by bit to him, he had no doubt that his understanding of emotions of other and also of himself would just get better and better. Luo Yan was not worried about that happening. In fact, he was looking forward to it.

He wondered what would happen first, Shen Ji Yunʼs realization or his birthday gift for the other? He kind of couldnʼt wait to find out. Because no matter which of it happened first, the result would be the same. And it was a result both of them definitely wanted.

”Okay, letʼs do that,” he responded to what Shen Ji Yun said earlier.

[Mashter, are we now really going to the- the place where Eclipseʼs p-parents lived?] – the little fox suddenly asked.

Luo Yan gazed down and saw the worried expression on Eclipseʼs face. [Yes, we are. Weʼre probably going to learn a lot of things about them.]

[Then, would there be others like Eclipse?]

[Yes.]

Eclipse looked away and asked hesitantly, [Would- would they like Eclipse?]

Luo Yan was surprised hearing that. Although he knew that this little fox was just a set of codes and data, he couldnʼt help but truly treat him like a precious baby. If he could, he would have already pulled him to reality so they could also interact there. Thatʼs why hearing Eclipse asked such a question with that kind of expression, he couldnʼt help but feel distressed.

[Of course, they would. Who would not like you?] – he quickly said.

[But youʼre Mashter, of course, you like Eclipse. But- but those like Eclipse might not like him.] – the little fox said, his voice full of worry. [What if they think Eclipse is ugly and weak and they all dislike me? Eclipse- Eclipse doesnʼt want that.]

Luo Yan hugged the little fox in his arms and rubbed his back gently. [They would definitely not think that. After all, Eclipse is so cute and amazing. And have you forgotten? Your mother was once their leader. If they know that her only offspring is still alive, they would definitely celebrate.]

He wasnʼt exactly sure that that was whatʼs going to happen. If one looked logically at the situation regarding the tragedy of the demon fox tribe, itʼs safe to say that once they learned that Kagetsukiʼs child was here, they would welcome him with open arms. But with this game, he had already learned to expect the unexpected. So, he probably should baptize Eclipse first and not only tell him all these positive things.

[But even if they didnʼt and they disliked you, you donʼt have to care. Weʼre only here to get your inheritance which is yours by right. Whether they disagree or not, it doesnʼt matter. Your master will definitely get your inheritance for you. Because itʼs yours. Itʼs something left to you by your parents. No one is allowed to deprive you of it.] – he said resolutely. [Besides, Iʼm not the only one with you. Your favorite captain is also with us. Not to mention, your mighty Uncle Dusk. So, thereʼs no reason for Eclipse to feel scared. Because we will definitely protect you.]

Eclipse became speechless for a second. Before he could speak, Duskʼs loud snort was heard first.

”If youʼre being such a scaredy-cat, then donʼt even dare to refer to this king as your uncle.”

[Who said Eclipse is scared? Eclipse is definitely not scared!] – the little fox quickly retorted. [Uncle black lizard, why are you bullying Eclipse again? Eclipse is just- just worried, okay?]

”Why should you be worried about what others think of you? Do you have anything to be ashamed of?” – Dusk countered.

[Of course not! Eclipse is an upright kitsune, okay?]

”Then, thereʼs no reason to be worried. All you need to do is to strut over there with your chin held high up.” The dragon tsked. ”Such a troublesome brat.”

Luo Yan chuckled seeing the interaction between the two. Although this dragon was indeed like an elementary school kid in almost all aspect, he was like a true godfather to Eclipse just now. At least, he managed to remove the gloomy expression on Eclipseʼs face.

He happened to glance back at Shen Ji Yun. Even though his face was still expressionless, he could tell by the look in his eyes that he was confused at Duskʼs sudden tirade just now. After all, for the other, the dragon just suddenly spoke and said things out of the blue.

So, he explained it to him, ”Eclipse is worried about going to the demon fox tribeʼs site and Dusk was just comforting him.”

”Moon elf! Who said that this king was comforting that brat?” Dusk quickly said.

”Yes, yes, I was wrong. Youʼre definitely not comforting him,” Luo Yan only said, already learning from Shen Ji Yun on the right way to interact with the dragon.

”Hmp!”

Shen Ji Yun ignored the dragon. He moved a bit forward and stretched out his hand towards Eclipse who was being hugged by Luo Yan and rubbed the little foxʼs head as if comforting him. Then Luo Yan suddenly glanced back at him. Their faces only a few inches away from each other. And thatʼs when he just noticed their current position.

Luo Yan had his back towards him. By stretching his hand, it looked like he just hugged the other. No matter which angle anyone looked, he seemed to be caging the other with one of his arms.

Then his rabbit suddenly smiled. ”Brother Ji Yun, are you giving me a back hug?”

Shen Ji Yunʼs whole face heated up like something burning was thrown at him. Even if he couldnʼt see his face, he was sure that itʼs currently all red. No, itʼs probably even crimson red. As if blood would seep out of it any minute.

Before he could think, his body already moved back. Because of the sudden movement, he lost his balance. He felt his body swayed, like it would fall off from the back of the dragon in the next second.

He was about to use a skill when a slender hand reached out to him and pulled him back. Causing his body to fall forward. At the end, he fell directly on Luo Yan who turned around to pull him. His head was near the otherʼs neck, his breath hitting the side of it.

”Brother Ji Yun, it tickles.”

Hearing Luo Yanʼs voice as if he was out of breath, Shen Ji Yun just felt like fireworks exploded in his mind.
