BXBX NOVEL Chapter 611 two parts of a whole
Their team work was a bit shaky at first. Probably because of Eclipse’s new humanoid form. But once they got the hang of it, their moves simply flowed like water. It probably helped a lot that the two of them could communicate mentally.
He wanted to continue that training until the finals of the Rookie carnival. Which was only a week away. His goal was at least to reach level 98. Because he knew it was impossible to reach 100 within a week. Level 100 was not the cap level in this game. But the EXP points needed to level up from level 99 to level 100 were a lot. To the point that some players who didn’t participate in the Arcadia Cup just chose to stop at level 99.
It’s like a huge hurdle that one had to face in order to go to a higher level. If this was some cultivation game, then it would be like some kind of ascension or something.
So, he’s confident that he’s competitors would probably be just as the same level as him by the time of the finals.
But before that, he planned to finish the hidden task with Shen Ji Yun this weekend. They only had to go to the dragon clan to find out who was the traitor who betrayed Dusk during the war with the dark mages. Then they would go to the land of the dark mages – Achaeus.
Luo Yan took out one of his daggers and slashed it upward. The monster that just attacked him from above disintegrated. He should probably teleport to the site of the demon fox tribe before he was swarmed with monsters here.
He had already told Eclipse that there was no need for him to teleport on his side once he logged in the game. All he should do was wait and Luo Yan would go to him. The same for Shen Ji Yun. They decided to just meet at the site of the demon fox tribe.
He took out a teleportation scroll from his Items Tab and used it. The feeling of entering a vacuum came immediately. When he opened his eyes, he was already at the village of the kitsunes.
He hadn’t taken a step yet when he heard a very familiar childish voice calling him.
"Mashter!"
Luo Yan turned his head to the direction where it came from and saw a seven, eight year old boy running towards him. His long braided black hair was swaying behind his back at the same time as his five fluffy tails.
Eclipse immediately hugged Luo Yan’s waist the moment he came closer. He raised his head, his sapphire blue eyes twinkling. "Welcome back, Mashter!"
Luo Yan gazed down and couldn’t help but pinch the little boy’s cheek. "How come our Eclipse is getting cuter and cuter every time I see you?"
Eclipse only grinned. "It’s only right for Eclipse to be cuter and cuter. Eclipse has such a beautiful Mashter, how could Eclipse not match Mashter’s beauty? That would be criminal."
Luo Yan chuckled. This fox really had a way with words. "Don’t worry. As you are now, you already match my beauty perfectly."
A distortion in the air suddenly appeared near them. It’s a sign that someone was teleporting in the area. Luo Yan already knew who it was before they even appear. Who could it be other than Shen Ji Yun?
"Captain!" Eclipse called the moment Shen Ji Yun appeared.
Shen Ji Yun was about to greet the other back when he saw that the boy was hugging Luo Yan’s waist. He once again felt jealous at the closeness of the two. But showing his envy would just make him petty.
He cleared his throat and took a Mana fruit from his Items Tab. He looked at Eclipse and stretched his hand that was holding the fruit. "Eclipse, here a gift for you," he said, trying his best to sound gentle. He even smiled.
Eclipse only tilted his head. "Captain, why do you suddenly look constipated?"
Shen Ji Yun’s expression almost cracked when he heard that.
Luo Yan, on the other hand, was trying his best not to laugh. He was sure that Shen Ji Yun did that, giving Mana fruit to Eclipse and smiling at him, just so he could get the boy away from him. This vinegar jar.
But as it happened, in Eclipse’s eyes, Shen Ji Yun’s smile just appeared like he’s having constipation. Poor cinnamon roll.
"Go and take the fruit," he said to Eclipse. "Don’t forget to say thank you to Captain, okay?"
Eclipse nodded and walked to Shen Ji Yun, taking the fruit. "Thank you, Captain."
Shen Ji Yun just rubbed the other’s hair. Thankfully, it seemed like Luo Yan didn’t notice his gaffe.
"Eclipse, do you know where Dusk is?" Luo Yan asked.
"Uncle black lizard? Yes, Eclipse knows," the boy answered as he bit on the Mana fruit.
"Can you call him, so the four of us can continue on with our quest?"
Eclipse suddenly became spirited when he heard that. Probably because he knew that it meant they’re continuing on in their journey in seeking justice to what happened to the kitsunes’ former village as well as his parents. "Okay! Eclipse will go immediately!"
Then, the boy ran towards a certain direction at the fastest speed.
"I already obtained a special teleportation scroll that would take us to the western dragon clan," Shen Ji Yun said. "And as I am a qilin, they won’t be too discourteous and probably won’t just tell us to go away."
Luo Yan turned to Shen Ji Yun. "It’s really comfortable to do quest with Brother Ji Yun. I almost don’t need to do anything."
"That’s not true. In my opinion, I’m the one who’s riding your coat tails here," Shen Ji Yun quickly said.
After all, without his rabbit he probably wouldn’t get pass all those steps that needed them to converse with the NPC. If it was just him, he’d probably just use force to finish everything. In the first place, he wouldn’t even bother to take such a task. He only did so because Luo Yan was with him. And that it could be a good way for the two of them to become even closer.
Luo Yan smiled, already kind of expecting that response. "Then, let’s just say we’re two parts of a whole. One couldn’t exist without the other."
Shen Ji Yun knew that Luo Yan was just metaphorically speaking, but his mind couldn’t help but think of another meaning behind it. Like the two of them existing for one another.
He gazed down, making sure that Luo Yan wouldn’t see his expression. "Yes, exactly like that."
