"SHOULD we go now to the site of the demon fox tribe?" Luo Yan asked.
Shen Ji Yun was rubbing his earlobe where the new earring was. He could still feel the heat from when Luo Yan touched it. Remembering what he said about everything looking good on him, he couldn't help but feel shy again. He was suddenly thankful for his good genes.
Although he hadn't really been that aware of his own looks, if his rabbit found him handsome, then there's no reason for him to not be thankful. As long as he could have something that Luo Yan would like, he would be more than glad to be in possession of it.
"Brother Ji Yun?" Luo Yan called again when he noticed that the other looked like he was in a daze.
He raised one of his brows. Was rubbing his earlobe really had such a big effect? He smiled inside. Imagining how it would be like if he touched Shen Ji Yun's earlobe in real life. Not just that but also other parts of him. He would probably be much redder than a ripe tomato. Maybe it would be on the same level as an overly ripe apple.
Just thinking about it, he couldn't wait to have a taste. Ah, that sounded a bit perverted, right? What could he do? Shen Ji Yun simply brings out his inner pervert. Who told him to be this cute, sexy, adorable, and handsome? Even his small smile could give him a crit hit.
He was suddenly glad that not many people could see these sides of Shen Ji Yun. If not, then he would probably have a line of rivals as long as a train track. Even with that cold personality that he constantly showed to unrelated people, he could still attract bees and butterflies. Like that captain of team Sirens for example. What more if they knew how adorable he truly was?
He'd probably had to fight a lot of people. In this regard, Luo Yan was truly lucky. At least he was the only one who could slowly peal off this gift and discover the treasure inside. And he planned to let it remain that way.
Shen Ji Yun seemed to wake up from his own dazed state when he heard Luo Yan's call. Thinking back on Luo Yan's question, he answered, "Uhm. I have the teleportation scroll for the Beastkin Archipelago. We could go there as long as you're ready."
Luo Yan smiled at the other's preparedness. The Beastkin Archipelago was a huge island where all the different beastkin tribes resided. Each tribe, no matter how big or small they might be, had their own site. For players who chose the beastkin race or picked the random selection and got a rare beastkin, then these sites would serve as their origin village.
"It's really good to do task with Brother Ji Yun. I don't have to worry about anything," he said.
"No, ahm, it's the least I could do since Yan Yan is the one who mostly does the work in every task," Shen Ji Yun said.
He was a bit embarrassed by Luo Yan's praise because just like he said, during the tasks they did together, it was always the other who mostly did the work. He could only do his part by being the logistic guy. Providing Luo Yan of whatever he needed.
"Don't say that," Luo Yan said in a slight scolding tone. "Having Brother Ji Yun stand next to me is more than enough help," he added with a smile.
Shen Ji Yun received another wave of sweetness. Was today his birthday? If Luo Yan continued on giving him sugar, he might really overdose from too much sweetness. Not that he was complaining. He'd happily faint from receiving too much sugar from the person he liked.
"Uhm," he said, not even noticing the bit of shyness in his own voice.
Luo Yan smiled seeing such a reaction. Ah, he really wanted to jump on this guy. No- he had to control himself. Let's wait until this body was legal and the two of them finally became an official couple. By then, he could do everything he wanted.
"Let's go and get Eclipse and Dusk," he only said.
A few distance away, they could see the little fox and the miniature version of the black dragon glaring at one another. Even at this distance, he could see that the two were bickering again.
"Brother Ji Yun, are the fox beastkins considered a rare race?" he thought of asking while they were walking towards where Eclipse and Dusk were.
"Yes, they're not as many compared to other beastkins," Shen Ji Yun answered.
Luo Yan already kind of expected that. "Do you think it had something to do with what happened to the tribe and Eclipse's parents?"
"Since the game always tried to be as consistent as possible, it would definitely adhere to the narratives it presented. So, yes, I think it was one of the reasons."
Luo Yan nodded. He also agreed with that. "Does Brother Ji Yun already know where in the Beastkin Archipelago the demon fox tribe's site is?"
"I purchased a special map of the whole Beastkin Archipelago. The locations of each tribe are marked on it," Shen Ji Yun said. "We can go there once we teleported to the archipelago's main city."
"So, there's no teleportation scroll that could directly take us to there?" he asked.
Shen Ji Yun shook his head. "We have to travel manually."
Luo Yan happened to glance at the mini-dragon. "How about using Dusk as our mode of transportation?"
Shen Ji Yun also looked at the direction of the dragon. A frown automatically appeared on his handsome face. "Would that dragon even agree?"
"Well, if you want Dusk to be your pet, I think Brother Ji Yun should find a way to make him more obedient to you." And then as if remembering something, Luo Yan added, "But try not to use violence. Dusk might not willingly become your pet if you do that. It's better to get along with him. Like me and Eclipse."
Shen Ji Yun's frown became even deeper when he heard that. Because using violence was the first thing that came to his mind.
