The Return of the God Level Assassin

Yu Jiao, of course, didn’t hesitate to agree. "Yes, of course. I can meet Brother Ren at Olkdale City."

A little man in Luo Yan’s heart did a victorious dance inside his heart. He wasn’t really lying per se. It’s true that his brother had work tomorrow and he could only log into the game after he came home from work. But he could have also just asked Bai Ze to do it. Which was more appropriate considering that the other was their cousin.

But he wanted to give this opportunity to his brother. It’s not every day that the other could meet Yu Jiao. He still needed to brush his existence from time to time. That’s why when he found out that the match would begin at seven in the evening, he thought of this idea.

It’s not that he was forcefully pushing Yu Jiao to Luo Ren’s arms. He just wanted to give his brother an opportunity to not only brush his existence but also to show his ’appeal’ to Yu Jiao. It’s up to Luo Ren whether he would make good use of this chance.

Luo Yan wasn’t worried that his older brother would take advantage of his friend. He knew Luo Ren’s character. He wouldn’t even do something remotely like that. That’s why he didn’t mind playing cupid.

He smiled happily at Yu Jiao. "Thank you, Jiao Jiao! I will send you the tickets for the seats that our team reserved."

Yu Jiao wondered why she suddenly felt like Luo Yan’s smile was just, well, too happy. She shook her head. Maybe the other was just glad that he finally didn’t need to worry about his brother. So, she just smiled and nodded.

Later that evening during dinner at the Luo family household...

"Tomorrow is the finals, are the two of you ready?" Luo Ren asked.

"Well, I prepared as much as I could. So, even if I lose, I would have no regrets," Luo Yan answered.

These past weekdays, he had been training with Eclipse, improving their team work and stuff like that. There weren’t really any problems on that regard. Especially since the two of them could even communicate telepathically. He just wondered if any of the players fighting tomorrow would bring their pet.

"I’m ready as well," Luo Jin only said.

He had been constantly training ever since the end of the preliminaries. He himself didn’t think that there would come a day that he would be serious with a virtual tournament. It’s probably because he didn’t want a repeat of that sorry fight he had with that Razor guy.

He wanted to win.

It’s the first time he ever felt competitive while playing Arcadia. It seemed that this game was indeed growing on him. He only ever felt like this about things that he really liked. But if thought about it, there were indeed many reasons for him to like the game.

The game had become some sort of medium for him and Luo Yan to bond. One also couldn’t deny the experience while playing Arcadia was super surreal. As if you had been transported to a fantasy world you didn’t know you needed until you experienced it yourself. And what a magical experience it was.

Besides, because of this game, he was also able to meet someone he considered very special. The face of a young woman with bleached platinum blond hair and a pair of different eyes suddenly popped inside his mind. He shook his head, not really wanting to figure out the reason why.

"It would be great if Ah Jin and I could meet at the finals."

Luo Yan’s sudden comment pulled Luo Jin’s thoughts back. He turned to his second brother. "If we do, I’ll definitely win."

Luo Yan grinned. "Just exactly what I want to hear. But you should know that I won’t go down without a fight. Maybe I’ll be the win taking the win."

Luo Ren smiled seeing the banter between his two brothers. It’s good to see the two acting like hot-blooded youths.

"So, the ’championship’ that Xiao Yan mentioned before was a tournament?" Luo Wei Tian suddenly interceded. "It’s not a fighting tournament, is it?"

Luo Yan looked at their father and smiled very naturally. "It is, Dad. But you don’t have to worry since even if it involves fighting, we won’t really feel any pain in the literal sense of it. The most we could feel was like the pain of injection or something."

Although he had mentioned before to their father about the finals of the Rookie Carnival, he didn’t say that there would actually be fighting involve. And here they were just casually talking about it in front of him. It seemed that they had gotten carried away quite a bit.

Luo Ren and Luo Jin also started explaining.

"Yan is right, Dad. We would be fighting against other players but there won’t be any danger involved." – Luo Jin.

"I also experienced the game myself. So, I can guarantee that it’s not really as dangerous as it may seem." – Luo Ren.

Luo Wei Tian stared at his three sons and almost smiled helplessly. The way they were talking, it’s as if he would ban them from playing this game. How could he do that especially when he knew how Luo Yan was looking forward to this ’championship’.

"Okay, I understand." He cleared his throat. "In fact, in the light of investing on Moonlight Media, they had sent me a special VR helmet. So, I could also watch this tournament with Ah Ren tomorrow and cheer for Xiao Yan and Xiao Jin."
