The Return of the God Level Assassin

"ARE you thinking that I would retain him here because he inherited the Elementum?" Shirayuki asked, a trace of amusement could be seen in her eyes.

Luo Yan scratched his cheek in embarrassment. "Well, it did cross my mind."

The female kitsune let out a gentle laugh. "No, Sir Noctis doesn’t need to worry about that. If Eclipse wanted to continue travelling with you, then so be it. I wouldn’t hinder him. If I do something against his will, then the little one would only think badly of me. We haven’t even formally met yet. I don’t want my nephew to think that the aunt he just met is actually such a villain."

Luo Yan nodded. He felt relieved. At least now, he was sure that they didn’t need to fight the demon fox tribe. It’s a good thing that the character setting for this NPC was gentle and understanding.

"But does the tribe not need a leader?" he asked, just to make sure.

"We do. But that didn’t mean that we would force someone who isn’t even an adult yet and is practically a baby to be in that position," Shirayuki answered. She looked at Eclipse who was now lying inside the cradle and her expression became gentler. "Besides, that’s not something my sister would want."

"But would the elders of the tribe agree?" Luo Yan asked again.

Although he felt that he was being annoying right now for asking all these questions, he just had to make sure. He didn’t want to leave here with uncertainties regarding Eclipse’s future.

Sadness flashed again on Shirayuki’s face. "There are no elders. There’s only me."

In short, no matter what decision she made, there was no one to go against it. The female kitsune turned around. She probably didn’t want them to see her expression.

"I will go and prepare tea. Please, do go ahead and sit down."

After saying that, Shirayuki walked to another sliding door and opened it. She went inside and closed the door behind her. That room was most likely a kitchen or something. contemporary romance

Luo Yan and Shen Ji Yun both sat on the cushions around the tea table. Dusk remained standing and leaning on the sliding door.

"Is this king related to this place?" the dragon suddenly asked.

Luo Yan glanced at Dusk and saw the deep frown on the other’s face. "Not this place but this tribe," he answered honestly. "Aren’t you curious why Eclipse started calling you ’uncle’?"

The dragon only wrinkled his nose. "Isn’t it because that brat just wanted to annoy me?"

Luo Yan was a bit bewildered by this answer. Shouldn’t this guy at least know by now his connection to Eclipse’s mother? If not, then why would he go along with them so easily without even causing a fuss? What he meant was, his fussing was lesser than usual. That’s why Luo Yan just assumed that the other had at least an idea of what was happening or why they were even here.

His confusion was quickly answered by Shen Ji Yun, who leaned closer to him and whispered;

"I haven’t told him what we found about his past." Shen Ji Yun showed a guilty look. "I kind of forgot about it."

At that time, all his thought was about going to Chengdu and seeing Luo Yan again in reality. How could he spare any thought for the black dragon? And then after Chengdu, it was the preliminary of the Rookie Carnival. Then right after that, the issue with that Raphael guy happened. By that time, the thought of explaining things for the dragon had already been forgotten by him.

He actually only remembered it today when he was entering the game. But he had no time to explain everything to Dusk because Luo Yan was already online. He couldn’t let his rabbit wait now, could he? So, he just said something vague to the dragon. Telling him that they would go somewhere to restore his memory and then teleported to where Luo Yan was.

That’s why he couldn’t help but feel a bit guilty. After all, it was him who said that he would explain things to the dragon. And he didn’t even do a good job of it.

"I’m sorry," he apologized sincerely.

Luo Yan stared at Shen Ji Yun. If the other had ears like other beastkins, they must be drooping by now.

Then, Shen Ji Yun suddenly held the hem of his sleeve and said, "Don’t be mad, Yan Yan. I won’t do it again. Okay?"

Ah, really. How adorable. Was this guy deliberately selling meng just so he wouldn’t get angry? – Luo Yan thought.

He cleared his throat and whispered back, "How could I get angry at Brother Ji Yun for such a simple thing?"

He was indeed not mad. In his opinion, whether they told Dusk about his past of not wouldn’t really change the outcome that they had today. The only thing that would probably change was how the dragon would have reacted on their way here.

If Dusk knew about the parts of his past that they had discovered, with his character setting, he would definitely be more troublesome. Perhaps there would be even more bickering on the road.

Shen Ji Yun, on the other hand, was joyful after hearing what Luo Yan said. The corner of his lips couldn’t help but rise up. "Yan Yan is so kind. Thank you."

Luo Yan was hit again by this sudden smile. "There’s no need for thanks." He then smiled at Shen Ji Yun. "I’m always kind to the people I like."

Shen Ji Yun felt like he was hit by lightning when he heard this. And the line ’people I like’ kept on echoing in his mind like a broken record. Could it be--? Could this really be--?

"Like my family and friends," Luo Yan quickly added. "Of course, Brother Ji Yun is one of them."

He almost had to wipe an invisible cold sweat because of that slip up. This was not yet the right time for confession. He, at least, had to wait until this body became legal.

Shen Ji Yun, on one hand, was shocked silly. It turned out that he only misunderstood. How embarrassing! He almost raised his hand to his face to hide his embarrassment.

Unknowingly, the atmosphere became a bit awkward. It was Dusk’s voice that broke this.

"Hey, did the two of you forgot that this king still exists?"
