The Return of the God Level Assassin

1071  YOUR SCENT

LUO YAN opened his eyes at the familiar view of their team's headquarters. He hadn't taken a step yet when a black fox as big as a Siberian husky came running to him with a big leap.

If this was the real world, he would have definitely avoided this 'attack'. But since they were inside the game, it didn't really matter much. So, he welcomed the big ball of fluff rushing towards him.

"Master!" Eclipse said while snuggling at him.

Luo Yan softly laughed. "The way you're acting, it's like we haven't seen each other in years. Didn't we just talk yesterday?"

The fox suddenly changed to a boy clinging to his neck. "Hmp, talking and hugging in person are two completely different things."

"And here I thought you're becoming less attached to your master," he said with a chuckle. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Since Shen Ji Yun gave him the app, Luo Yan and Eclipse had been communicating even when he's not in the game. Since then, Eclipse had been less clingy. That's why this reaction was a bit surprising.

"How can that be? Eclipse will always cling to Master!" Eclipse said, as if he was offended that Luo Yan even said that. Then added with a pout, "Besides, Eclipse hasn't seen master for three days!"

That's right. Since that incident on Thursday night, he hadn't been back here in Arcadia. On Friday, he spent the whole day with his grandfather and Bai Ye. Since it would be awhile before he would be back in B City. Then yesterday, he and Luo Jin returned to S City.

He then spent the whole day appeasing his father. Something that he and Luo Jin should have done together. But that good brother of his ran away in the middle. Probably to meet up with Su Yuqi in the game.

That's why he only had time to enter the game today.

"Then I'm glad you still love your master," he said in a teasing tone.

"Master, stop talking that as if there would ever come a time when Eclipse would not love master."

"Yes, yes."

Then, the both of them walked inside the headquarters. Their team would have a meeting before Arcadia Cup's closing ceremony that would be held tonight.

"Is someone already here?" he asked Eclipse as they walked.

"Just Uncle Dusk and the red dragon."

Aside from being slightly surprised that he was the first one here, there was also another thing that surprised him more. "When did you change the way you address Rowan?"

"Just lately," Eclipse said with a shrug. "Eclipse discovered that he wasn't that bad."

Luo Yan raised his brow. He didn't know what happened between the two for Eclipse to change his mind. But this was definitely a good thing. At least, the team work would definitely improve.

"Well, I'm happy that your opinion of Rowan had leveled up."

When they entered the main hall, Luo Yan didn't see Dusk or Rowan. Knowing these two dragons, they might be just wandering around the mountain.

They quickly sat down at the round table. He was about to send a message to Shen Ji Yun, asking the other when he would come. But before he could, the door to the main hall opened and in walked his handsome boyfriend.

Once he returned home, Luo Yan realized just how nice it was for them to be in the same city. Just one phone call and he could easily meet the other. How nice it would be if he, his whole family, and Shen Ji Yun could all live in one city.

"Captain!" Eclipse called.

Shen Ji Yun nodded at Eclipse. He gave the main hall a quick glance. After seeing they were the only ones there, he told Eclipse;

"Eclipse. Can you call Dusk and Rowan?"

Eclipse tilted his head. Then, after a few seconds, his expression changed. Like that of someone who just realized something. He looked at Shen Ji Yun with an expression full of mischief.

"Captain must want to be alone with Master. No need to make excuses. You can just tell Eclipse that directly," the boy said while looking at Shen Ji Yun as if the other was hopeless. "Since Eclipse is feeling very generous today, Eclipse will leave you two alone."

Shen Ji Yun cleared his throat, probably trying to hide his embarrassment. "Thank you, Eclipse. I'll make sure to give you a lot of Mana fruit later."

Eclipse looked completely ecstatic when he heard that. "Captain should not take that back, okay?"

Then he jumped down from his seat and walked out of the main hall.

Luo Yan turned to Shen Ji Yun, his peach blossom eyes filled with amusement. "So, why does our dear Captain want to be alone with me?"

Instead of answering that, Shen Ji Yun simply hugged Luo Yan's waist, pulling the other closer. "I miss you."

Luo Yan would have normally teased the other. But since he was also feeling a bit 'touch deprive' and needing 'charging' from his boyfriend, he just leaned against Shen Ji Yun. Completely sinking into the other's embrace. "Me too."

It would be nice if they were in reality. Because then he could feel Shen Ji Yun's warmth more clearly. He would also be able to smell his scent. Shen Ji Yun always smelled good. So, it's such a waste not to smell it.

"I wish I could smell your scent right now."

Luo Yan blinked when he heard Shen Ji Yun say that. Then he burst out laughing. He looked at Shen Ji Yun, cupped his face, and gave him a quick peck on the lips. "How are you thinking the same thing as me?"

Shen Ji Yun was taken aback at first, then the corner of his mouth turned up. "Maybe because we're a match made in heaven."

"You and your silver tongue," Luo Yan said with a grin. "Although, I have to agree. We really do match."

Their gazes met and they just naturally leaned towards each other. But before they could even kiss, the door of the main opened and someone walked in.

"I'm here— Ack! My eyes!"

The two glanced at the door and saw Bai Ze covering his eyes as if he had just seen something he really didn't want to see.
