The Return of the God Level Assassin [BL]

AFTER breakfast, Luo Ren did log into the game and started his Arcadia journey.  To Luo Yan's surprise, just after 30 minutes, his older brother logged out and told them that he had already finished his beginner's task and was already out of the Origin Village.  That was even faster than Luo Jin back when the other first started.

At that time when their older brother first logged out, he and Luo Jin hadn't entered the game yet.  They decided to do so after eating early lunch.  Because they had to meet up with their team mates and then after that, they had to go to Safehaven Harbor.  Considering how they needed to fight at the prelims, which they weren't sure how long would last, it wouldn't be good if they entered the game a bit too early.  Especially since the suggested time for a player to remain online was about six hours. 

So, Luo Ren found both his brothers relaxing at the entertainment room when he logged out.  After knowing that they would log in later before 11 am, he decided to just log in the game again at the same time as the two.  That way, there would be no need for them to message him and they could just directly meet at the game.

That's why after eating early lunch, the three Luo brothers each headed to their rooms and put on their VR helmets.

-----

Luo Yan opened his eyes and found himself just outside the Forest of Darkness.  He already expected this scenery since this was where he logged out four days ago. 

Soon after, a fluffy black fox suddenly appeared in front of him.

[Mashter!!!] – Eclipse's milky voice echoed in his mind.

Then a soft fluff ball rushed towards his arms.  He quickly opened his arms and caught the little fox.  Because of the sudden force, he almost lost balance.  Good thing he managed to quickly regain his foothold.  But he also quickly noticed that Eclipse seemed to gain weight again.

[Eclipse, did you get fatter again?] – he asked.

The little fox in his arms showed a shocked expression.  Then his pair of blue eyes misted, as if he would cry at any second.  [Mashter!  How could you bully Eclipse like this?  We haven't seen each other for four days and that's the first thing you say to Eclipse?  Do you not love Eclipse anymore?]

Luo Yan wanted to laugh but he stopped himself.  He was afraid that this little fox would really cry if he did so. 

[I'm sorry, Master is just surprised that Eclipse seemed to grow bigger again in such a short period of time.  Of course, I still love Eclipse.  You're so adorable, how could I not love you?] – he said in a coaxing tone.  [In fact, Master missed Eclipse very much.]

Eclipse seemed to be very satisfied with his master's coaxing.  [Eclipse missed Mashter very much as well.]

Luo Yan observed Eclipse and noticed that the little fox seemed to really be a bit bigger than the last time he saw him. 

[Did Eclipse level up while I was away?] – he asked.

[Yes!  Eclipse is now level 28!  Eclipse could feel that my fourth tail will grow soon.] – the little fox said, puffing out his little chest.

[Really?  Eclipse is so great!]

After the prelims, he and Shen Ji Yun planned to go to the site of the demon fox tribe to get Eclipse's inheritance.  Maybe after that, this little fox wouldn't only have three tails but four instead.  Eclipse would definitely be much stronger by then.  Just the right time before the tournament of the Rookie Carnival started.

[Where are we going now, Mashter?  Are we going to that Safehaven Harbor?] – Eclipse asked.

[Not yet.  We're going to meet my brother first and then we're going to our team's headquarters.]

[Brother?  Is Mashter talking about the black-haired gnome?]

[No, it's my other brother.  He's older than me and Ah Jin.] – Luo Yan corrected.

The three of them talked earlier and decided that he would meet Luo Ren at Olkdale City while Luo Jin would inform their team mates that he would be bringing their older brother at the headquarters.

Eclipse tilted his head.  [Is Mashter's older brother as beautiful as Mashter?]

[Well, rather than beautiful, handsome is more accurate.]

[Then, is he as handsome as Captain?  For sure, that's not the case.  Because there's no one as handsome as Captain!]

Luo Yan almost laughed.  Truly, if he didn't know Shen Ji Yun, he would suspect that he bribed some programmer of the game to make Eclipse continuously blew the other's rainbow fart at him. 

[He's definitely as handsome as your Captain.] – he said, flicking the fox's forehead gently.

Eclipse's little paws held his flicked forehead and then said, [Wrong.  Captain is not Eclipse's.  Isn't he yours, Mashter?]

Luo Yan became speechless for a moment.  Then he suddenly felt heat creeping up to his face.  He cleared his throat.  [What nonsense?]

Before this little fox could say any more nonsensical things, he took out a teleportation scroll from his Items Tab and teleported to Olkdale City.

He appeared at the city's plaza.  It didn't take long before his eyes found his older brother amongst the crowd there.

Luo Ren's game avatar was almost the same as how he looked in reality.  The only difference was that the one standing at a distance had long blond hair, pointed ears, and a pair of green eyes.  It seemed that he followed Luo Yan's advice and picked the elven race.  Which really suited him, just like what Luo Yan imagined.

Even if the other was wearing the simplest beginner's clothing, he still stood out from the rest.  One could clearly see that he was not just someone ordinary.  That's probably why the people around him couldn't help but give him a second glance.  Some even downright stared.  But they dared not come near because of the cold atmosphere that he was exuding. 

[Mashter, is that your older brother?] – Eclipse's voice echoed in his mind.

[Yes, pretty handsome, right?]

[Hmm… yes.  But Captain is still more handsome in Eclipse's eyes!]

Luo Yan just rolled his eyes and refused to response to that.  So, he just ran towards his brother.
