The Return of the God Level Assassin

"But really, knowing that Vulcan is actually a girl is really such a big surprise," Bai Ze commented.He turned to Yu Jiao who was sitting beside him."Why did you pick a male avatar?Do you also look like this in real life?Or did you do some customization, like beautifying yourself?"

"I- I’m—"

Then Bai Ze suddenly felt something hitting his forehead.It was not that painful but it definitely startled him.When he saw a pine nut falling down, he knew that it was the thing that hit him.He raised his head and saw Su Yuqi who was sitting opposite him giving him ’the look’ and he immediately knew that this girl was the one who threw the pine nut.

"Su Yuqi!What’s your problem?" he shouted, annoyed.

"I just find you irritating to the eyes," Su Yuqi said indifferently.Then she looked at Yu Jiao, her eyes a bit warmer."Don’t mind his questions.He just couldn’t help but be stupid at times."

Bai Ze was still annoyed.But when he heard what Su Yuqi said, he also realized that his questions were a bit too rude.So, the annoyance he felt quickly reduced to half.He turned to Yu Jiao again but not before making face at Su Yuqi.In which the other only rolled her eyes.

"Sorry, it’s my fault just now.I didn’t mean to be rude," he said sincerely.

"N-no, I—" Yu Jiao stopped.In just these few minutes of getting along, she already felt that these old members of team Yunyue were really not bad.Just like what Luo Yan said to her.They didn’t have any arrogant air around them.They were treating her like normal.As if she was already part of their circle.So, the least she could do was to stop being so nervous and treat them as sincerely as she could.

She took a deep breath before continuing, "It’s okay.I’m not offended or anything.I chose a male avatar because it’s more convenient.I- I’m too timid.If I chose a female avatar, I might not be able to sell the things I crafted.All I could do was to hide behind a male avatar.It-" she looked down."It gives me a little bit of confidence."

Bai Ze was silent for a moment.He didn’t expect that this was the true nature of the famous Blacksmith of Arcadia – timid and lacking confidence.For a while, he didn’t know how to react.

"If it’s something that makes you comfortable, then it’s fine.There’s no need to be ashamed.It’s not as if you’re hurting others by doing this," Su Yuqi said in a tone as if it’s not a big deal that Yu Jiao was impersonating the opposite s.e.x.

With what Su Yuqi said, Bai Ze finally recovered from the little awkwardness he felt earlier."That’s right, that’s right.What’s wrong with using a male avatar?It’s better than those men using a female avatar and deceiving other male players.The pink-haired loli monster over there is indeed right."

Another pine nut came flying but this time Bai Ze was ready and he quickly dodged it.He was about to smirk at Su Yuqi but he suddenly felt another pine nut hitting his forehead.

"Su Yuqi!"

The other only looked at him as if he’s an ant."Call me a ’loli’ one more time and the next thing I’ll throw at you will be this chair I’m sitting at."

"Huh, do you think I’m afraid of you?You pink-haired lo—"

Before he could even finish what he was saying, his mouth was suddenly stuffed with a piece of sweet Osmanthus cake.He looked incredulously at the culprit – Luo Jin.

"Brother Ze should think more of his safety before saying anything," Luo Jin said seriously.

Bai Ze felt like a vein on his forehead jumped because of what this little cousin said.He bit the Osmanthus cake violently."Are you saying that Su Yuqi is stronger than me?"

Luo Jin shrugged but his meaning was already pretty obvious.

Su Yuqi looked smugly at Bai Ze."Luo Jin has a pretty good vision."

"You—!"

"P-please, don’t fight," Yu Jiao said, trying to mediate.The quarrel between the two started with her.She couldn’t just sit back here and watch them fight, right?

"Don’t mind them," Shen Ji Yun said.Although his face was still expressionless, his attitude was already a lot better compared to earlier.

Luo Yan was happy seeing all these.He was actually a bit worried that Yu Jiao wouldn’t be able to get along with the other member of his team.But seeing her easily falling into the rhythm of his team mates, he finally felt relieved.

"Brother Ji Yun is right," he said when he saw that Yu Jiao was still trying to stop the bickering of his cousin and Su Yuqi."Brother Ze and Sister Yuqi might fight a lot.But the truth is the two of them get along the most."

The two who where mentioned immediately stopped bickering when they heard this.Both looked at Luo Yan as if he’s an alien.

"Xiao Yan, are you sure your eyes are not going bad?In which way did you see me getting along with Su Yuqi?" Bai Ze asked with a worried look on his face as if he was really worried that his cousin was going blind.

Su Yuqi snorted."In terms of getting along, I’d say I get along more with Luo Jin."

Luo Jin who heard this felt an indescribable happiness in his heart.But before he could even bask in it, his face was filled with black lines because of what Bai Ze said next.

"Yes, you two are perfect for each other.One is a loli and the other is a shota."

The next moment, it was not only Su Yuqi who was throwing things at Bai Ze, Luo Jin also joined the fray.

Yu Jiao, who was caught at the middle, still tried to mediate.Luo Yan just outright laughed.Even Shen Ji Yun showed a small smile.

And this was how the night of the opening ended for team Yunyue and the number one Blacksmith in Arcadia.
