The Return Of The God Level Assassin

THE dragons in Arcadia were divided into two groups. One was the Western dragons and the other was the Eastern dragons. The Western dragons were based on the Western mythology where they had large wings on their backs and had strong and big limbs.

Unlike their Western counterpart, the Eastern dragons didnʼt have wings. They had serpentine bodies which were long to the point of coiling. But they still had the ability to fly despite that.

To visualize them properly, Western dragons were like dragons from Western medias. Like the dragons from Harry Potter or from The Hobbit. While the Eastern dragons were like Shenron – the dragon from Dragon Ball.

Western dragons were all fire-breathing unlike Eastern ones that had power over certain elements. The former were thought of as ferocious predators while the latter were thought of as deities.

Their dwellings were also vastly different. The Western dragons liked to live in dark secluded places, like a cave for example. While the Eastern dragons chose their place depending on the elements they were familiar with. Like on top of a high mountain or beneath the ocean.

Dusk belonged to the Western dragon clan. The place where they lived was a dark valley called Typhon. It was surrounded by high volcanic mountains and dank swamps. That was what welcomed Luo Yan and his party when they teleported there.

”Well, isnʼt this a pretty sight,” Luo Yan said while looking around.

The place looked so dreary that it seemed like some kind of setting for a horror movie. The dark clouds above the valley also didnʼt help. It just added to the dreary atmosphere.

”Itʼs not pretty, Mashter. Itʼs dark and damp. Eclipse doesnʼt like it here,” the little boy pouted before turning to Duskʼs humanoid form and giving the other a pitiful glance.

Dusk immediately became annoyed by that look. ”Why are you looking at this king like that, huh, brat?”

”Itʼs because Eclipse feel sorry for Uncle black lizard for living in such a place,” Eclipse said with a sad tone as if he was really feeling sorry.

Dusk flicked the otherʼs forehead. ”If you keep talking nonsense, this king will definitely make you feel ʼsorryʼ.”

Eclipse held his forehead and hid behind Luo Yan. ”Mashter, Uncle black lizard is using domestic violence! This is child abuse!”

”Okay, thatʼs enough. Eclipse, try not to tease your uncle too much. And Dusk, donʼt always resort to violence. Okay?”

Eclipse pouted but still agreed. While Dusk only gave a grunt. But considering how he didnʼt say anything, itʼs silent way of agreeing.

Luo Yan turned to Dusk who is currently wearing a fox mask. Before they left the kitsunesʼ village, they had to force the dragon to wear a mask. It was so they could avoid an early battle. If those dragons saw Duskʼs face, there might be a big problem.

But because this was Dusk they were talking about, it took a bit of time before they could put that mask on his face. Luo Yan even had to threaten him, making him choose whether to wear a mask or transform into a size that would fit Shen Ji Yunʼs pocket. The dragonʼs choice was, of course, inevitable.

”So, do you remember anything while looking at this place?” he asked.

”Nothing. I donʼt even feel anything while being in this place.”

Luo Yan contemplated Duskʼs answer. Was it because the other didnʼt think of this place as important thatʼs why it couldnʼt trigger any emotional response from him? Hmm… considering the memories they had seen about this guy, thereʼs certainly a high probability that that was the case.

Dusk was ostracized for some reason. He didnʼt even have a name of his own. He was living alone, away from his clan, before tragedy with the kitsunes happened. If Kagetsuki didnʼt die, Dusk would have probably still be living in his cave. The only reason he took over this place to become king was so he could have the manpower to take revenge on the people who killed Kagetsuki.

Itʼs only natural that he wouldnʼt feel any nostalgia being in this place. The same could be said for the other dragons that they might meet. Although the same thing couldnʼt be said to the dragon who betrayed Dusk.

Surely, he would feel something once he saw the guy, right? It would make their search faster, so Luo Yan really hoped that that would be the case. The only problem would be if that guy was no longer living here.

Oh, and another thing, these dragonsʼ reaction once they saw their former king coming back here. But the latter could still be temporarily solved by the fox mask Dusk was wearing.

”Is your strength back to full force?” he asked again.

”Mashter should not worry about that. Captain has been supplying Uncle black lizard with a lot of high-quality Mana fruit these past few days. Thereʼs no way his strength would not be back to normal,” Eclipse said, answering Luo Yanʼs inquiry.

Dusk tsked, seemingly annoyed that the little boy answered for him. But since he didnʼt deny what Eclipse said, itʼs like saying that his strength was indeed back in its full force.

Luo Yan nodded and turned to the silent Shen Ji Yun. ”It seemed that Brother Ji Yun really had prepared a lot for this day.”

”As I should,” Shen Ji Yun said. He wanted this task to be at least a bit smooth-sailing as much as possible. That way, it would also lessen Luo Yanʼs burden.

”Then, letʼs enter this dragonsʼ den,” Luo Yan said, looking far ahead.

And the four walked forward.

The valley didnʼt have any gates that would welcome or prevent visitors from entering. So, as they walked, Luo Yan was wondering how they could attract these dragonsʼ attention. The fastest way to accomplish their goal was to meet the current king of this place. The one at the top always had the most information.

But it seemed that they didnʼt need to wait that much. Because a dragon just landed from the sky.
