The Return of the God Level Assassin

IT took a few minutes before Shen Ji Yun and Dusk managed to kill all the monsters that besieged them. The first thing he did after that was to check his Map and looked for Luo Yan’s location. Once he ascertained it, he quickly ran towards that direction. He ignored the dragon that was already getting on his nerves.

"Hey, qilin, where are you going now?"

Shen Ji Yun did not respond and just continued to run following the signal that was blinking on the Map.

"Hey, this king is talking to you!" the dragon, who had already caught up with him, shouted again.

Shen Ji Yun only gave the other a cold glance as a respond. He made sure that all his displeasure could be felt in that glance. He didn’t care if the other was just a bunch of data and probably couldn’t comprehend why he was glaring at him right now. He just wanted to show him how much he’s annoyed. In fact, if he wasn’t rushing to where Luo Yan was right now, he would probably have already attacked this stupid dragon.

"Hmp! Getting angry over nothing," Dusk muttered. But he promptly shut up and just followed him.

Shen Ji Yun could finally run in peace. With his speed, it didn’t take long for him to reach his destination. The dragon was able to match up his speed and also arrived at the place almost at the same time as him.

What’s in front of them was a steep cliff and below was a river. He carefully remembered what Luo Yan had said to him earlier about this. The scene in front of them was just an enchantment – an illusion to be exact. According to what Luo Yan said, there should be a set of stairs here and at the end of that was a torii gate.

"Why is there an enchantment here?" Dusk suddenly asked.

Shen Ji Yun glanced at the dragon. This guy probably had the [Dragon Sight]. It’s an innate skill that only high-ranking dragons in the game had. But it was something very rare. Even those players who belonged to the dragon race couldn’t gain this skill no matter how high their level was. From what he knew, one needed to accomplish a particular task before they could have it.

This skill could see through any illusions. So, that’s why this dragon was so confident earlier that he could find the site of the demon fox tribe. But in this situation, it didn’t matter whether the other could see through the illusion. What’s important was to destroy it.

"Can you destroy it?" he asked.

Dusk scoffed. "Of course, I can. But I might set everything on fire if I do. So, I’m now giving you a heads up in case you get all pissy again."

Shen Ji Yun brows furrowed a bit. So, that’s a no-go then. He couldn’t let Dusk set this place on fire. After all, his rabbit was still there. Whatever progress he was doing over there, he couldn’t just let it all go to waste by letting the dragon set the whole place on fire.

He looked forward, pondering what he should do. Then he raised his head and the sky. An idea suddenly popped into his mind.

"Hey, your highness, can you fly me over?"

He could fly on his own with his qilin beast form. But there were some actions that were not easy to do in that form. It would be better to just utilize this dragon.

"Of course, I can. But that doesn’t mean that I would," the dragon said, puffing out his chest as if proud that he just said something smart.

Shen Ji Yun almost had the urge to pull out his own hair because of irritation. Seriously, why was the character setting of this dragon like this? He took a deep breath to calm down. After he was sure that he wouldn’t directly pull out his sword and slash this guy, he said;

"I will compensate you. Of course, it would be something worth it for a king like you."

The dragon looked like he was considering his offer. At the end, he snorted and said, "It better be worth it or I’ll beat your qilin’s ass!"

Then, without warning, he suddenly turned into his dragon form.

Shen Ji Yun also did not waste time and immediately jumped to the dragon’s back. Dusk flew over the enchantment and just as Shen Ji Yun had guessed, the enchantment didn’t cover the sky. But it seemed that one needed to be in a certain height in order to get past it. They had to have the ability to fly at least.

Now, he could see the place hidden by the enchantment. He could see the stairs and the torii gate Luo Yan mentioned. After that was a building that looked like a Shinto shrine. But the most impressive was the statue that even he could see at this distance. But what took his attention more was the figure of Luo Yan which was currently standing very close with some female NPC.

"Hey, isn’t that the moon elf?" Dusk said. "Why is he having some rendezvous with some female fox? Wait- the brat said the two of you are a couple. Is he actually cheating on you?" contemporary romance

Shen Ji Yun felt like a vein on his forehead just popped because of Dusk’s nonsense. But he couldn’t deny that what this stupid dragon had said truly hit a nerve. So, instead of answering, he just jumped down from the dragon’s back.

He was about to use one of his skills to break his fall, but hallway there, he met resistance. Like some kind of invisible shield. It was repelling him and preventing him from going down. His patience was already running thin. So, he simply took out his sword and used one of his more powerful skills.

He raised his sword and thrust it downward. At the same time that he did, a powerful lightning struck down on the shield. Just like that, it shattered into pieces. With nothing to stop him, he continued his descent.

And he landed perfectly beside his rabbit.
