The Return of the God Level Assassin [BL] Chapter 346

Chapter 346 - ADORABLE CINNAMON ROLL

THE High Priest walked towards the wall and put his hand on it. His palm emitted a faint green light. After that, the part of the wall where he was touching opened like a sliding door. He walked inside. And just like he said earlier, Luo Yan and Shen Ji Yun followed, alongside Eclipse who was now back on his master's shoulder.

Inside was a stair that led downstairs. They climbed down, with the High Priest leading them. As they walked, the crystals on the wall lighted up as if sensing their presence. 

"I apologized. I didn't mean to be uncooperative," the High Priest started, apologizing for his previous behavior. "Because of the way the Lord Qilin was speaking, I thought you were planning to take the elf, Rhys, from here. Of which I couldn't allow."

So, the reason why he quickly agreed on them meeting Rhys was because he confirmed they were not planning to take the elf out of here? If Luo Yan knew that it would be that simple to make this NPC agree, he wouldn't have wasted all those fake tears.

"And may I ask why that is?" he asked.

"He's currently experiencing a rebound from a forbidden spell he casted. The dark magic emanating from his body is very harmful to living beings. That includes plants and animals as well. It's a very potent dark magic. What he did had an irrevocable consequence. There was no cure for it. That's why we need to seal him here in this Tower. At least until his remaining life force disappeared. Which was probably not too far off from now."

So, that's why the leader of Crimson Corps said that something was taking Rhys' life force away when he checked the other's life lamp. In this case, it would be the dark magic that rebounded from the forbidden spell that he casted. 

"What kind of spell did he cast?" he couldn't help asking.

"A spell to bring the dead back to life. Any Mage worth their salt should know that no matter how strong their magic is, they couldn't play with life. They could take life but they don't have the power to give it. Only the goddess has that power."

Luo Yan was not surprised when he heard that. With the information given to them by Alicia, they already knew that Rhys was in love with Finnea. When he heard the High Priest talked about a forbidden spell, he already suspected that it was a spell along those lines. That Rhys probably planned to bring Finnea back to life.

But regarding bringing people back to life, in this game, that probably only applied to NPCs. Because he knew for a fact that the Priest class had a skill that could bring a dead player back. Of course, the death he was talking about was in-game deaths.

"How long has he been sealed in this place?" he thought of asking.

"For almost a year now."

"Then did one of the priests here found him and brought him here to be sealed?��� he continued on with his questions.

"In a way, yes," the High Priest vaguely answered. "We have been searching for him since that incident that happened here five years ago. I believe that also involved the wife of the Gatekeeper of your village."

Of course, with such a revelation, how could Luo Yan not ask more details? "What exactly happened five years ago?"

"Rhys, as you call him, had a friend who served here as a priest. His name was Lars. He was a very gentle and soft-spoken child. We didn't know what kind of convincing Rhys did that made Lars disregard one of the most important rule of the Tower. And one might say that that disregard resulted to the tragedy that followed."

Hearing the vague way the High Priest spoke, he probably wouldn't tell Luo Yan the whole story even if he asked. And here he thought the High Priest could just reveal to them everything they needed to know. It seemed like they still needed to talk to Rhys after all. So, he decided to not respond to what the High Priest just said. 

But from what he gathered from the things he said, this Lars did something which if she would guess would probably be helping Rhys in whatever the other planned to do to Finnea. In which led to tragedy. No need to mention what happened to Finnea, they all knew she ended up cursed. But that Lars definitely didn't fare better. With how the High Priest talked about him in past tense, he's definitely dead now.

[Mashter, have you noticed that Captain hasn't spoken since we climbed down the stairs? He even looked a bit gloomy.] – Eclipse commented, glancing behind at Shen Ji Yun. 

Luo Yan glanced back and saw that Shen Ji Yun was indeed looking a bit gloomy. He took back his gaze and looked forward. He then asked the little fox sitting on his shoulder, [Why do you think that is?]

[Captain is probably depressed because after he said that Mashter should leave everything to him, Mashter was still the one who solved everything at the end.]

Luo Yan scratched his nose. Although his guess was also the same, but hearing Eclipse explained it that way, he couldn't help but feel a bit embarrassed. Because it's like he snatched Shen Ji Yun's job or something. Well, maybe he did. Just a tad bit. But he did his best to only follow up when needed. Didn't he let Shen Ji Yun handle everything since they arrived at this floating island?

But being depressed over something like this was so like Shen Ji Yun. Because the main reason the other was probably feeling that way was because he was thinking that he failed him. Really, how adorable was that? 

[Captain looks really pitiful. You're not going to comfort him, Mashter?] – Eclipse asked again. 

If he didn't know better, Luo Yan would think that this virtual pet of him was actually guilt tripping him. [Who said I wouldn't?]

Just not right now. But definitely later when this task was done. It's the least he could do for all his efforts. And of course, for being such an adorable cinnamon roll.

Then he continued walking forward, following the High Priest.

As soon as Luo Yan graduated, he immediately got an offer from a prestigious gaming company. He thought all his hard work finally paid off. And he would finally reach the pinnacle of life. But then, on his first day of work, a potted plant fell on his head and he died. Surprisingly, when he thought he would cross the Yellow River, he suddenly woke up and found himself in the body of a 17 year old boy. This body had the same name as him but completely different background. Because the original was the second young master of the Luo family - one of the most powerful family in S City. Luo Yan almost cried. God probably took pity on him and decided to give him a loving family with a wealthy background. He didn't have to work hard anymore. Studying like his life depended on it and pretending to be a holy father just to cater to people. So Luo Yan decided to be a salted fish and just shamelessly sell meng. A certain male god who always bought Luo Yan's meng: Yan Yan is so cute! Why is Yan Yan so cute?? Cold faced on the outside, a cinammon roll on the inside Gong X Super beautiful, black-belly Shou.
