The Return Of The God Level Assassin

LUO YAN had a blank expression at first and then, he couldn’t help but chuckle. When Eclipse suddenly buried his face on his chest, he thought that the little boy couldn’t accept the sudden appearance of this aunt. But who would have thought that it was only because the other was feeling shy? He had almost forgotten how big of a face-con this little fox was.

But that didn’t mean that others also knew this special trait of Eclipse. Just like Shirayuki. When the little boy turned away from her and pressed his face on Luo Yan, her expression cracked a little. She must have probably thought that her nephew was rejecting her. Sadness quickly enveloped her countenance.

This was what Luo Yan saw when he raised his head and looked at the female kitsune sitting across from him. Seeing her expression, it wasn’t hard to know what she was thinking. So, he patted Eclipse’s back and whispered to the little guy;

"Go and greet your aunt. If you don’t, she’ll be sad and think you don’t like her."

After he said that, Eclipse quickly stood up and turned towards the female kitsune. Shirayuki tried to smile in the gentlest way she could but the sadness in her eyes still couldn’t be hidden. Eclipse probably noticed that, that’s why the little boy ran besides Shirayuki despite his legs still being all wobbly.

Eclipse fidgeted, his body language screaming nervousness. He looked at Shirayuki with shyness. "A-are you really Eclipse’s aunt?"

Shirayuki’s sadness seemed to lessen when his nephew asked her this. "Yes. I’m your mother’s younger sister. My name is Shirayuki. You can call me Aunt Yuki if you want."

Hearing that, Eclipse then stared at Shirayuki’s face in a daze. Then his big sapphire blue eyes widened as if he just discovered that Shirayuki looked a lot like Kagetsuki.

"A-aunt," he called tentatively.

Now, it was Shirayuki’s eyes turn to widen. Then those eyes were filled with emotion, becoming more and more watery. As if tears would drop at any second. She was obviously very overwhelmed by this call. But she tried her best not to directly cry into a bag of mess.

She smiled and asked in an almost hoarse voice, "Can I hug you?"

As an answer, Eclipse hugged the female kitsune’s slender neck. "Aunt Yuki, Eclipse- Eclipse is very happy to meet you."

A surprised expression appeared on Shirayuki’s beautiful face. But it soon turned to indescribable happiness. She hugged the little boy back. "I’m also very happy to meet you, Eclipse. Thank you for being alive."

Eclipse seemed to be greatly affected by these words and he couldn’t help but sob. And then that sob slowly turned into full-blown cry. Shirayuki showed a distressed look and patted her nephew’s back gently.

"Shh... it’s alright... don’t cry," she said, even though there was also a drop of tear at the corner of her eye.

Luo Yan, who was watching on the side, also couldn’t help but feel distressed for Eclipse. This was the second time that this little guy had cried. Because of his character setting, which he wasn’t sure was influenced by him in any way since the little fox had been with him before he even hatched from the beast egg, Eclipse had always been energetic and naughty.

That’s why when he first saw him cry when they found out about Kagetsuki from Lhoris’ memory, he almost panicked. And now seeing Eclipse crying again felt like his heart was being stabbed by needles. It’s uncomfortable. Even more so now that Eclipse was crying in his humanoid form.

"You brat- I mean, kid, don’t cry too much. Your aunt’s clothes will be soak by your tears," Dusk suddenly said.

Shirayuki just gave the dragon a blank stare as if telling the other, ’what nonsense are you saying?’.

Eclipse separated from Shirayuki. He turned to Dusk, his eyes were puffy and red. He sniffed before saying, "Why is uncle black lizard worrying about Eclipse’s aunt’s clothes? Don’t tell Eclipse that uncle black lizard actually has a crush on Eclipse’s aunt?"

Dusk’s face quickly turned red similar to a boiled shrimp. "You- stop talking nonsense! How could I have a c-crush on that aunt of yours?"

"This dragon, can you not raise your voice? We can all hear you clearly," Shirayuki said with that expressionless stare that he often gave to Dusk. "But I should thank you for not having a crush on me. We might have a problem if you do. After all, the two of us still have accounts to settle. It would be problematic if you suddenly develop romantic feelings for me."

She said that last part in a matter-of-factly tone that it would only make the one she’s speaking to even more embarrassed. As evidence, Dusk abruptly stood up, his face still as red as before.

"D-don’t think highly of yourself! Hmp!"

Then he ran away again.

"I won’t follow him again," Shen Ji Yun immediately announced after the other left.

"It’s okay. He’s probably just embarrassed," Luo Yan said, chuckling.

Eclipse then suddenly turned to Shen Ji Yun with his blue eyes shining. Luo Yan suddenly had a bad feeling. But before he could say anything, Eclipse had already beat him to it.

"Captain! Eclipse had wanted to talk to you for a long time! Eclipse wanted to say personally that Captain is really handsome and that Eclipse approve of you and Mashter. The both of you match perfectly. Like a match made in heaven!"

The little boy ended that with a thumbs-up.

Luo Yan almost wanted to facepalm. The thing that he was worried the most happened quite faster than he thought. With Eclipse’s personality, he knew it would only be a matter of time before he started his ’shipping’ hobby. But he didn’t expect that it would be now. Somehow, he could already foresee the future. Yes, the future of him feeling embarrassed because of Eclipse’s ’shipping’ hobby.

Shen Ji Yun, on the other hand, was taken aback by what Eclipse suddenly said. It was a good thing that he wasn’t drinking anything or else he might have spilled it because of too much shock.

He looked at Eclipse who was smiling brightly at him. He suddenly felt embarrassed. He even felt his cheeks slightly heating up. Was this little fox just teasing him? Or was there more to it? He actually hoped it would be the latter.
