The Return Of The God Level Assassin

LUO YAN stared at the full body mirror inside his walk-in closet. He was wearing a loose-fitted lavender polo shirt. It sleeves were folded up to his elbows and tucked in a pair of black shorts that reached just above his knees. Attached to the shorts were a suspender of the same color. He put on a pair of purple sneakers then fixed his hair neatly.

[How can you be so pretty?] He thought while smiling at the mirror.

In a good mood, he happily walked out of his walk-in closet and went out of his room. He walked straight to the living room and was slightly surprised when he saw his father sitting there.

"Dad? I thought you already went to work?" he said.

"You’re going to take your exam today, how could I not accompany you?" his father said, standing up and walking up to him.

"But aren’t you busy?"

"I’m sure my employers could survive without me for a day," Luo Wei Tian said, fixing up his son’s collar.

Besides, if he didn’t go personally with Luo Yan, those people in Guizu Academy might think that he didn’t favor him and therefore it’s alright to ignore him or even bully him.

Since his father insisted, of course Luo Yan wouldn’t reject it. In fact, although he wasn’t really feeling nervous, just knowing his father was there was enough to erase the remaining worry in him. It even boosted his confidence.

"Oh, good. You’re done changing clothes," said a voice coming from the stairs.

Luo Yan looked back and saw Luo Jin. His younger brother was dressed up casually – blue shirts, black fitted ripped jeans, and a pair of black air Jordan shoes. Seeing how he’s dressed to go out, Luo Yan asked, "Are you coming with us too, Ah Jin?"

"Of course I am," Luo Jin answered once he walked near them. "I’m much more familiar with the school than Dad. It’s better if I go with you."

"Oh yes, Xiao Jin is really familiar with the school. I believe he’d been caught fighting at least once in one of the school buildings," Luo Wei Tian teased.

Luo Jin’s face immediately reddened. "Dad-!"

"Ah Jin is always fighting with his classmates?" Luo Yan asked curiously.

Although his brother had a short temper, it didn’t cross his mind that Luo Jin would constantly fight others. He suddenly remembered how antagonistic Luo Jin had been to him when they first met. He’s like a wild wolf that couldn’t wait to attack anyone who so much as looked at him in the wrong way. That’s the kind of feeling he got from him back then.

And maybe he was right. Maybe before Luo Yan woke up from the coma, Luo Jin was the type who would really bare his fangs at anyone who pissed him off. He guessed that the death of their mother and him being in a coma really took a toll on Luo Jin. Emotionally and psychologically speaking. It would have been especially harder for Luo Jin considering how he was with them inside that car when the accident happened. Luo Jin was only nine then. A child, really. He probably had no idea how to cope up with that kind of tragedy. So to lessen the pain, fighting had been his outlet.

Luo Yan felt his heart ached for him. It must have been hard. Luo Yan was reminded of how hard it was when his parents died on his last life. It’s like his world just caved in. Everything was dark. He couldn’t even see the light. He was worse than a living doll. Frankly, he didn’t know how he managed to continue living back then. He was probably more tenacious than he remembered himself to be.

"Argh-" Luo Jin didn’t know how to answer his second brother’s question. Because he did fight a lot with others. What if Luo Yan thought that he was some kind of thug or something? "I- I really didn’t fight that often. Just- just sometimes. Okay?"

"Really? Then I wonder why the school always contacted me at least once a week? Telling me of your many adventures," Luo Wei Tian said.

"Dad!" Luo Jin called, trying to stop him from telling more of his ’exploits’. Really, why was their father being such a pig team mate today?

Luo Wei Tian chuckled seeing how red his youngest son’s face became. He wasn’t sure if it was because of embarrassment or frustration. But he was sure that Luo Jin didn’t want to look bad in front of Luo Yan. This might be a good opportunity for Luo Wei Tian to finally convince this ’rebel’ son of his to tone down with the fighting.

He always worried that one day, sooner or later, Luo Jin would have an accident because of all the fighting he was doing. But since Luo Yan woke up, he hardly fought anymore. In fact, during this whole summer, he had been staying in the house with Luo Yan. And with Luo Yan going to the same school too, Luo Jin would probably wouldn’t have the time to fight with others because he would be more focused on his brother. Which would be good for everyone.

Luo Wei Tian’s train of thought was on the right direction. Because right now, Luo Jin was thinking of ways on how he would not appear like a delinquent in front of Luo Yan. The best way was to avoid fighting with anyone once school started. He wasn’t just sure if he could really comply to that. Especially if some stupid person tried to bully Luo Yan.

"I think it’s not Ah Jin’s fault. It’s definitely the fault of those who tried to pick a fight with him," Luo Yan said, his small fist raised and his face looking very indignant. But instead of appearing angry, he just looked extremely cute.

That’s what Luo Wei Tian and Luo Jin both thought. They couldn’t help but want to squeeze Luo Yan.

Luo Wei Tian smiled and stroked Luo Yan’s hair. "Yes, Xiao Yan is right."

Luo Jin huffed. "Of course it’s the fault of those people."

Luo Yan laughed and just link each of his arms on his father’s and Luo Jin’s arms. "Dad, Ah Jin, let’s now go to Guizu Academy. I don’t want to be late for my exam."
