The Return of the God Level Assassin [BL]

"YAN, where are you going after this?" Luo Jin asked, his new guns already hanging on his holster belt. Clearly, he was trying to show off his new weapon. 

Luo Yan looked at his brother. His expression was clearly full of 'I want to try my new weapon, come, join me'. But sadly, he had to disappoint him. "I'll stay here for a bit and talk to Jiao Jiao for a bit." 

Luo Jin showed a bit of disappointment look but his expression quickly cleared. "Then I'll go ahead. I'll say goodbye to Yu Jiao on my way out."

They were still inside the lounge room while Yu Jiao just left a few minutes ago because she was called by one of her NPC employees. Saying that a customer needed to consult with her personally.

It's best for him and Luo Jin to go separately right now because he had to meet up with Shen Ji Yun later. He already talked to him earlier about finishing the two tasks they had to put on hold last time. If Luo Jin was with him by that time, his brother would surely make a fuss. Now, he couldn't even deny Luo Jin's claim that Shen Ji Yun had some kind of 'ulterior motive'. Because, in a way, the other really did have one.

It's good that it was Luo Jin, himself, who suggested to leave on his own.

"Okay," he said. "Try not to be too excited while testing your new weapon. You might accidentally shoot innocent players with your overexcitement," he teased.

Luo Jin's brows scrunched up a bit, clearly unhappy that his second brother was teasing him again. Since Luo Yan was still sitting and he was already standing up, he took that opportunity to squeeze both his brother's cheeks. "Stop with your teasing."

After squeezing enough, Luo Jin let go of Luo Yan's cheeks and finally walked out of the lounge room. Obviously, satisfied. 

Luo Yan rubbed his reddened cheeks. That kid. Did he have to pinch his cheeks so hard? He'd definitely get back at him later.

[How envious. Eclipse also wants to pinch Mashter's cheek.] – Eclipse said with an obvious envious tone. [Maybe if Eclipse could also turn into a humanoid form, Eclipse could also pinch Mashter's cheek.]

Luo Yan reached out to the little guy sitting on the center table and proceeded on pinching both his cheeks. [Oh? So, the only reason you want to have a humanoid form is so you can pinch your master's cheek, huh?]

[Aw, aw, aw… Mashter, Eclipse is wrong… please have mercy!] – Eclipse said as if Luo Yan was torturing him.

He let go of the fox's cheeks. Seriously, this fox could really be so overdramatic sometimes. But he was a bit surprised that Eclipse still hadn't let go of the idea of him having a humanoid form. Maybe the programmers were already planning to release an item that could turn the player's pet into a humanoid form. That's why Eclipse had been insisting on having one. 

Wait- so, did that mean that his suggestion to Bian Que would become useless? Well, whatever. It didn't really matter if the game officially released an item like that or if Bian Que created one himself. As long as it was made, then that's all that mattered to Luo Yan.

Then he suddenly felt that something soft touched his knees. He looked down and saw the two front paws of Eclipse resting on top of his knees. The little guy's face was looking up at him. His sapphire blue eyes were suddenly filled with water as if he would cry at any second. 

[Is Mashter angry at Eclipse?] – he asked pitifully.

This guy, using his acting skills on him again. Just who did he take this from? [Of course not. How could I be angry at Eclipse?]

Eclipse smiled, showing his small fangs. Then he jumped to Luo Yan's arms and snuggled close to his neck. [Mashter is really the best for Eclipse!]

He patted the little guy���s back. Suddenly, he couldn't help but imagine what this small fox would look like if he had a humanoid form. The image that popped in his head was a small boy with black hair and peach like cheeks. He would also have a pair of fox's ears on top of his head and three fox's tails behind him. That was actually not such a bad image.

His imagining came to a halt when he received a message notification. He opened his Status Window and went to his chat interface. 

YUN: [Yan Yan, I'm already online. Where are you?]

Luo Yan put down Eclipse on his lap before answering. When he sent a message to Shen Ji Yun via WeChat after he woke up, he told him to send him a message once he's inside the game. So, he could meet him.

Noctis: [I'm at Jiao Jiao's shop.]

He only realized then after he send that that guy might become a turned over jar of vinegar again. He should have probably just said that they should just meet at the other's floating island. But his fingers just typed on its own before he could even think. 

Sure enough, the reply he received was;

YUN: [I see.]

That 'I see' again. Seriously, that phrase was starting to have anew meaning to him now. But when he thought that Shen Ji Yun would no longer send anything after that, another message was sent to him.

YUN: [I'll meet you there.]

It took a few seconds before his brain registered what he just read. Wait- what 'I'll meet you there'? Would he teleport here?

Before that was answered, the door to the lounge room opened. Yu Jiao walked in, looking a bit haggard. The question he had just now was temporarily forgotten when he saw her like that.

He stood up and walked to her. "Jiao Jiao, are you alright? Is everything okay?"

Yu Jiao shook her head and smiled. "It's okay. The customer I had to meet just now was just being too demanding. It's a bit of a headache."

"Why not just turn them away?"

"Well, I made sure to charge him a lot to make it worth the headache."

Luo Yan chuckled. It's definitely a joy seeing Yu Jiao being playful.

Then, the notification bell of an incoming message sounded again. He opened his Status Window again and read the message.

YUN: [I'm outside Forge Etna. Where are you?]
