The Return Of The God Level Assassin

BECAUSE of so much anger, all Lan Yu could see was red. It’s like a red fog was slowly filling his gaze. He wanted to rush over and beat the crap out of Noctis. Make him suffer in the worst possible way. Break his every bone. He just wanted to make him hurt!

But before he could even act on those thoughts, a huge shadow suddenly blocked his gaze. It was the guy with blue eyes and a mask covering the lower half of his face. He was looking down at him with those glacial blue eyes. As if he was just an ant under his feet.

"Don’t look. Your gaze will dirty him."

Hearing what the guy said, Lan Yu’s anger just broke. He wanted to attack, use one of his offensive skills and push this arrogant bastard out of the way. What ’your gaze will dirty him’? Did this guy think that Noctis was some kind of holy grail and he’s some kind of demon trying to defile it?

Hah, he had never heard something so nonsensical. It made him want to beat the other bloody.

But when he tried, he just felt restrained. And then he suddenly remembered that fights were not usually allowed in in-game business establishments such as this pavilion.

Feeling all that restrain, his mind temporarily cleared. Even though he was still full of anger, the red haze in his eyes was already slowly disappearing. He took a deep breath. Even if his insides were still raging with anger, his mind had never been clearer.

Lan Yu knew that he had been had. These people wouldn’t just stage all this for no reason. Now that his brain was working properly once again, he understood that he was in trouble. Especially after remembering the things that he spouted in the midst of his anger earlier.

He had to fix this situation. Fast. Before everything got out of his control.

"What do you want?" he asked, his gaze bypassing the blue-eyed bastard and staring straight at the moon elf standing behind him.

Hearing his question, Luo Yan walked out behind Shen Ji Yun. Giving the other a reassuring glance. He then looked at Raphael.

He didn’t expect this guy to calm down so quickly. But then again, being a habitual white-lotus, he must have great control over his emotion. Luo Yan should probably be more surprised that they managed to get they needed from him this fast.

Well, he had a feeling that it had something to do with Celestials’ captain.

He had been watching everything that’s happening from a nearby tree. He had to be near because he had to coach Eclipse on what he should say while in the guise of ’Michael’. Even though his little fox was pretty human-like most of the time, he would still have trouble participating in such a planned conversation that needed him to say the right things so their plan could proceed accordingly.

Eclipse did really well. Following everything he said from their mental connection. The little guy even successfully followed his tone of voice, making the things he was saying much more believable. The only time he did not follow him was when Raphael insulted Luo Yan and Eclipse’s first reaction was to defend him.

But because of that, he noticed that Raphael’s expression looked even more abnormal. It had been like that ever since Eclipse in Michael’s guise said that he didn’t like a person like Raphael. The other could barely maintain a normal expression. But when ’Michael’ defended Noctis, he looked angry and constipated at the same time.

So, he told the little fox to show a shy look while he sent a message to Su Yuqi and asked her to tease Eclipse about Noctis. He was just planning to gauge Raphael’s reaction and then proceed accordingly. Who would have thought that he would completely snap?

Not that he was complaining. At least they got what they needed much faster.

But this just showed how much weight Michael had on Raphael’s heart. He wouldn’t even be surprised if the other was actually in love with the captain of team Celestials. He probably did all these things just so he could get closer to him.

But the problem was, he was going about it in such a wrong way. If he was in Michael’s place, he would definitely not be impressed. In fact, he would probably run from him as fast as he could.

Luo Yan stared at Raphael. The other’s expression was dim, as if he knew that he was in big trouble and that there’s no getting out of it. Well, he’s right about that. There’s really nothing he could do.

Because even if he tried to beg, Luo Yan wouldn’t be merciful. This problem originated from him, in the first place. If he didn’t do such a stupid thing, then Luo Yan wouldn’t even bother with him. But he did. So, he had to face the consequence of his actions.

"I don’t want anything from you. Because I already got everything that I need," he said.

Lan Yu quickly understood what he meant. These people probably took a video of what just happened. The moment it was uploaded in Weibo or this game’s forum, then everything for this game account would be over. If he was in reality now, he would probably be hyperventilating now.

He wanted to say something. But it felt like something was stuck in his throat. He couldn’t say what he wanted to say.

"Don’t worry, I’m not so heartless that I will target your real identity. You probably won’t just be able to use your current game account. Unless, of course, your face is thick enough to still use it after," Luo Yan said.

"No!" Lan Yu finally managed to shout. "Just, please, I could turn around that article and clear your name. So, please, just—"

"You should have thought of that before doing what you did," Luo Yan said, cutting off what Raphael was saying.

He snapped his fingers and Raphael was teleported out of there. He didn’t want to talk to that guy anymore. It’s not as if he would ever change his mind if they talked more.

He then turned to Shen Ji Yun and Su Yuqi. He smiled brightly. "You did amazing, Brother Ji Yun, Sister Yuqi!"
