The Return Of The God Level Assassin

SHEN JI YUN felt like his heart would burst. He could feel Luo Yanʼs hand on his arm, his warmth seemed to travel from there straight to his heart. And his whole body just froze. He didnʼt know how to react or where to put his hands and feet. Then when Luo Yan said ʼI love being with Brother Ji Yunʼ, all his brain cells just stopped working.

Love… his rabbit said ʼloveʼ! Although he was not directly saying that he loved him, hearing that word from his mouth was enough to drive him insane. Because of that, his brain had started to make up some kind of scenario.

[-Shen Ji Yunʼs mini-theater inside his mind-]

A boy with soft black hair stood in front of him and raised his head. His big, black peach blossom eyes stared up at him. He reached out to him and held the hem of his shirt. Then he said in a very sweet voice, ”Brother Ji Yun, I love you.”

He held Luo Yanʼs thin waist and pulled him into his arms. Then he put his hand gently on his cheek, feeling the velvety softness of it. ”I love you. So much so that I could no longer imagine a life without you in it.”

He stared at those slightly opened pinkish lips. His thumb gently brushed on it. The urge to put his lips on top of his was overwhelming. And so, he no longer stopped himself and slowly leaned forward, closing the distance between them.

But when he thought that he could finally taste the sweetness of Luo Yanʼs lips, a familiar voice suddenly called out to him.

[-End-]

”Brother Ji Yun!”

Shen Ji Yun suddenly awoken from his daydreaming. He glanced down at Luo Yan who was still hugging his arm. Then his gaze focused on the otherʼs pinkish lips. And he felt his whole face burning. In shame or embarrassment, he wasnʼt sure. He just wanted to facepalm and burry himself in a hole.

What the hell was that? Did he really just have a dream in the middle of the day while casually strolling inside a virtual world? And it was that kind of dream to boot! Seriously, whatʼs wrong with his brain? Just a simple hug in the arm and a little phrase could make him produce that kind of scenario. Was his brain really starting to be filled with nothing but yellow materials? If Luo Yan found out about this, he would probably be as far away from him as possible. Who would want to be with someone with such a strange brain?

Luo Yan stared at the constantly changing expression on Shen Ji Yunʼs face. From embarrassment to shame to frustration to worry and back to embarrassment again. This was probably the first time he had seen such a rich collection of expression on his face. He wondered whatʼs going on in that brain of his for him to show so many expressions in such a short time?

[Maybe Captain is imagining something about you, Mashter. Thatʼs why his face turned so red.] – Eclipse said, giving his usual commentary.

Thinking about him?

He glanced down at his hand holding Shen Ji Yunʼs arm. Could it be related to this? Because they were standing so close together and he was touching him, he started thinking of some not so PG-13 things? But he quickly rejected that idea. How could this innocent cinnamon roll have those kinds of thoughts?

But Luo Yan still let go of the otherʼs arm, just in case his embarrassment never disappeared and he wasnʼt able to talk to him properly. ”Are you okay, Brother Ji Yun? You just suddenly zoned out for a bit.”

Shen Ji Yun felt disappointed with the lost of the warm touch on his arm. But he quickly repressed all his thoughts related to Luo Yan and tried his best to return to normal. He didnʼt want for his rabbit to notice that there was something wrong with him.

[Aw, Mashter, look at the disappointment on Captainʼs face. He clearly didnʼt want you to let go.]

Luo Yan glanced sideways at the little fox on his shoulder. His eyes clearly telling, ʼif you continue saying nonsense, Iʼll turn you into a squished fluff ballʼ. Eclipse immediately closed his mouth, even making a zipper like gesture on it. As if saying he would shut up now. He nodded in satisfaction and turned his attention back again to Shen Ji Yun.

”Iʼm okay. Just thinking where we should go first.”

Shen Ji Yun said it so naturally that Luo Yan knew that he was back to his normal self. Although he liked seeing Shen Ji Yun with different kinds of emotions on his face, especially since he was the one who drew those emotions from him, this was hardly the time for that. They still had two tasks they needed to finish. And because his family would go to a vacation on Thursday, they only had until tomorrow to finish that.

”Where do you think we should go first?” he asked.

”I think we should go first to the headquarters of the Crimson Corps,” Shen Ji Yun answered referring to the mercenary group which Finneaʼs father was a member of. They also suspected that she was part of that group.

Luo Yan nodded. ”I think so too. Since we donʼt know exactly in which part of Tropical Land that Lorhis is working, itʼs better to go first to the place that we know the location of.” In this case, the headquarters of the Crimson Corps.

But that was not exactly the reason why Shen Ji Yun picked the headquarters of the Crimson Corps first. He wanted to go to Tropical Land much later. That way, they could finally catch the evening fireworks. If they were riding the Ferris wheel at that moment, wouldnʼt it be much more romantic?

Of course, he couldnʼt exactly tell that to Luo Yan. So, he just said, ”Letʼs go. Iʼll lead the way.”

And they walked towards the direction of the headquarters of Crimson Corps.
