The Return Of The God Level Assassin (WN)

LUO YAN felt like his body was being pricked by the dozens of gazes directed at him or rather, at them.He glanced sideways at Shen Ji Yun.As usual, there's still no emotion on his face.But Luo Yan could tell that he was very relaxed at the moment.He couldn't see any tension at all.A sign that he didn't put these people's attention to heart.And so, he decided to also not to care too much.Wasn't it just staring?They could stare all they want.It's not as if he wasn't used to people staring at him.

"Yan Yan, where do you want to go first?" Shen Ji Yun asked, glancing down at Luo Yan.

Luo Yan wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but since earlier, whenever Shen Ji Yun looked at him, his gaze had become much gentler and softer.He wondered what could have changed?

He just smiled and answered, "Could we first go to a Pet Supply Store?I'm planning to buy Mana fruit for Eclipse."

Shen Ji Yun nodded.If he remembered correctly, Eclipse was the name Luo Yan gave to the fox."Okay.Do you know where it is?"

"Yes.I already checked it on the city map beforehand."

Then the two walked towards the direction of the Pet Supply Store with Luo Yan leading the way.

[Mashter, should Eclipse also call the handsome guy Brother Ji Yun?]

Luo Yan chuckled when he heard that.He looked down at the fox he was holding and saw that Eclipse was staring at Shen Ji Yun with bright eyes.He said amusedly, [You can just call him Captain.]

[But won't that be too distant?]

Luo Yan raised one of his brows.[So, Eclipse want to get close to Brother Ji Yun?]Eclipse nodded.[It seems like you prefer to be his pet instead.Do you want me to transfer your ownership to him?] – when he said that in his mind, he made sure that his tone was very pitiful.

[No!Of course, Eclipse prefer Mashter!Eclipse just enjoy looking at Captain's face.]

Luo Yan laughed again and rubbed the little fox's head.[I know.]

Eclipse pouted.His expression was so vivid, it just made him even more adorable.[Mashter is teasing Eclipse.]

Shen Ji Yun noticed since the first time that Luo Yan chuckled that he seemed to be communicating with his pet fox.He looked at the two – Luo Yan was smiling down at the fox and gently rubbing its head while the fox was pouting.He couldn't help but feel that the fox was sulking while Luo Yan was coaxing it.He suddenly felt envious.He also wanted Luo Yan to pet him like that.

Wait- envious?Was he being jealous?Of a virtual pet of all things?He sighed.He never thought he was this narrow-minded.

Eclipse suddenly burrowed his little head on Luo Yan's chest.[Mashter, Captain is staring at Eclipse.]

Luo Yan glanced at Shen Ji Yun and sure enough, just like Eclipse said, he was staring at the little fox.He took back his gaze and looked down at his pet.[You're feeling shy?]

He felt the little fox nod.[What if Captain thinks that Eclipse is too cute and he wanted to snatch Eclipse from you?]He raised his head, his big sapphire eyes full of determination.[But don't worry, Mashter.Even if Captain used his beauty, Eclipse will still pick you!]

Luo Yan felt the corner of his mouth twitching.Seriously, why was this fox's brain circuit like this?But he's entertaining and cute, so he'd just let it be.[That's good to hear then.]

He glanced again at Shen Ji Yun and saw that he was still staring at Eclipse."Brother Ji Yun, do you want to pet Eclipse?"

Eclipse raised his head towards Shen Ji Yun, his big sapphire blue eyes full of expectation.As if saying, 'yes, pet me!'.

Shen Ji Yun was startled by the question. Especially after he saw the expectant gaze of the fox. If he said 'no' and the fox felt aggrieved, would Luo Yan be disappointed in him? He might even think that he was hating on his pet. So, even though he really wanted to say 'no', he still said 'yes'.

Luo Yan then raised Eclipse towards Shen Ji Yun."Here."

Shen Ji Yun reluctantly put his hand on the fox's head.Surprisingly, the feel of its fur was extremely soft.The fox rubbed its head on his palm, showing how much it was enjoying this.Unknowingly, he also started to enjoy petting the fox.

Luo Yan, of course, saw the reluctance in Shen Ji Yun's eyes when he first asked if he wanted to pet Eclipse.He was planning to take back his question, after all, he didn't want Shen Ji Yun to feel uncomfortable.But to his surprise, the other actually agreed.And now looking at his expression – well, it was still non-existent, to be honest, one could only see the change in his eyes – he seemed to be enjoying petting Eclipse.

"Do you want to hold him, Brother Ji Yun?This child really likes you, you know?I'm sure he'll be happy if you hold him."

Shen Ji Yun noticed that Luo Yan referred to the fox as a 'he' instead of 'it', showing that he was really treating this virtual pet with sincerity.He smiled a little inside.Because that only showed how gentle and soft-hearted Luo Yan was.

"He likes me?" he just asked instead.

[Yes, Eclipse likes you Captain!] – Eclipse readily answered before turning his head towards Luo Yan.[But, of course, not more than my Mashter.]

"Yes, he does.Do you want to hold him?" Luo Yan answered.

"Okay, I guess."

Before Shen Ji Yun could carry Eclipse, the little fox already jumped into his arms.He was a bit surprised, but he still held the fox carefully.Making sure that he wouldn't fall.

Eclipse rubbed his head on Shen Ji Yun's chest.[You're so warm, Captain.]

"He said that you're warm," Luo Yan said, delivering Eclipse's thoughts.

Ah, that's right.Shen Ji Yun almost forgot that master and pet could communicate mentally."He's really soft."

[Yes, Eclipse is very soft!Eclipse wished that he could directly talk to Captain.]

Luo Yan looked at his pet who seemed very at home in Shen Ji Yun's arms.[Is there no way you can speak to Brother Ji Yun?]

[There is.]

[Then, just do that.]

[No, Mashter should be the one to do it.]

[Me?What do I need to do?]

[Mashter just have to marry Captain!]

Luo Yan almost tripped on his own feet when he heard that answer.
