The Return Of The God Level Assassin

ZHU LIAN, also known as Nereid, the captain of team Sirens in Arcadia, picked up the tea cup and took a sip.She closed her eyes, enjoying the taste of the tea.She really liked this new addition to the menu of Yuexing Pavilion.Itʼs much better than the tea that was served to them last week.

”Wow.This tea is the bomb,” commented a girl with cat ears.She looked a bit plain but her pair of big cat-like eyes totally off-sets that.

”Well, it seems that the praises online were not actually unfounded,” said another girl with light blue hair and sea green eyes.She had a bit of similarity with the captain of team Sirens.Both had fins as ears and under them were gills.It was quite obvious that the two belonged to the same rare race – a mermaid.

Zhu Lian glanced at the two.One was her younger sister – Zhu Jingyi, and the other was her sisterʼs friend – Xia Li.The two were both members of team Sirens.She actually planned to go here alone because if she was with the other four main members of their team, just like last time, they might try to harass another NPC again just so they could know if YUN was here.

That incident was embarrassing enough, she didnʼt want another replay.Even though her admiration and feelings for YUN was almost an open secret, she still at least wanted to keep her dignity.She didnʼt want to appear like some obsessed girl that would stoop so low as to harass an NPC just so she could have a glance of the guy she liked.Although she knew her friends meant well, sheʼd rather they donʼt do it again.

So, she planned to go here at Yuexing Pavilion secretly.But who would have thought that she would be discovered by her sister and Xia Li and the two would tag along with her?

Zhu Lian knew what Jingyi was thinking.That she would go to Yuexing Pavilion in the hopes that she would see YUN and then proceed on making a fool out of herself.It was indeed true that her goal for going to this pavilion was YUN.But she would definitely not do something foolish.She just, well, she just wanted to catch a glimpse of him.Maybe even say a greeting or two.Thatʼs all.

Maybe, maybe, this time, she would be able to do it right.

Zhu Lian was right, Zhu Jingyi really did come here so she could supervise her older sister.Because when it came to that guy YUN, her sisterʼs IQ seemed to suddenly fall to the double-digits.Itʼs honestly very frustrating to watch.

Her sister, who only ever cared about playing the piano, suddenly told her one day that she would play a VR game and form a team to join some kind of tournament.She thought she was only joking.But she really went and did it.That was already more than three years ago.And now, the team her sister founded already made a name for itself.

That was all fine and dandy if her sister did it for herself.But no, Zhu Jingyi found out that it was actually all because of a guy.She didnʼt know the whole story, she just knew that her sister fell in love.Then decided to play the game that the guy she fell in love with was playing.Not only that, she even followed the guy to the same university!

Seriously, sometimes Zhu Jingyi just wished that her sister would directly confess to YUN.No matter the result, at least it would finally end her sisterʼs silly antics.

Xia Li, on the other hand, had another reason for tagging along.Of course, itʼs for her NightCloud CP.She knew from the forums and some pictures from Weibo that YUN attended the opening of Yuexing Pavilion last week.Noctis was probably not there because it was an invitation only event.But the same couldnʼt be said tonight.Maybe YUN and Noctis were planning to have a date in the pavilion.So, she tagged along with the Zhu sisters in the hopes that she could delay their captain if she ever tried to get in between her ship.

Xia Li liked their captain as a whole.She was unlike those rich young ladies who either thought too highly of themselves or too delicate that they could not even interact normally with others.But she just couldnʼt support her pursuit of YUN.

Itʼs not because sheʼs a fujoshi and she wanted all the handsome guys in the world to be paired with another handsome guy.She truly felt that her captainʼs feelings towards YUN was not really as deep as love.From what Xia Li could see, it seemed more like a fascination.And because their captain expressed her shyness in a weird way that didnʼt really allow her to interact normally with YUN.She had no way to release those pent-up feelings.So, she always kept on coming back to that fascination.To the point that she even considered it as ʼloveʼ.

Wow.That was kind of a deep analysis, wasnʼt it?Sometimes, Xia Li could even surprise herself.

But there was also another reason.A very recent one.When she followed YUN and Noctis on the streets of Goldcrest City more than a week ago, she found a secret.That YUN actually liked Noctis!Because if he didnʼt, then he wouldnʼt have allowed her to draw that fan-art.Even asking her to make him and Noctis appear closer.

And Xia Li was very on board with that.She picked up a tea cup and drank the delicious tea.

Another performance on the stage had ended.Zhu Lian knew that she wouldnʼt be able to see much even glance at YUN if she just stayed in this private box.Finally making a decision, she stood up.

”Iʼm going to go outside for a bit.”

She didnʼt wait for the reply of the two and just walked out, he didnʼt even stop when she heard her sister call.Once out of the box, she used an item that could teleport her in a short distance.Just a hundred steps, really.That way, the two wouldnʼt be able to quickly follow her.

After using the item, she was planning to walk ahead when she saw a figure that had been etched in her mind for quite a long time making a turn on the corner.Her eyes brightened.That long dark purple hair, and those pair of golden antler-shaped horns, it couldnʼt be anyone but YUN!

She quickly followed him and saw him entering a private box.She walked and stopped in front of that box.She took a deep breath.This time, sheʼs going to do it right.

And then she knocked.
