The Return of the God Level Assassin [BL] Chapter 646

THE Dark Saint stopped momentarily, as if not expecting this sudden reveal.  Luo Yan continued to maintain his afraid and harmless expression.  Truthfully, even though he's still bound by some invisible restriction, he could still use his [Shadow Walk] skill to escape here.  But he chose not to.

Because, aside from the fact that there was no assurance that he could get out of whatever was binding him if he left this room, he wanted to know the reason why this person was here. 

From the information given to them by Beelzebub, the Dark Saint had always been staying inside his bedchamber most time of the day.  The only time he would usually go out was during the night.  It was one of the reasons why they attacked during the day. 

But now, the person who was supposed to be in his bedchamber was standing in front of Luo Yan.  The overly curious part of him couldn't just let it go.  Especially if this something could potentially affect the task they were doing in some way.

Thinking of that, he immediately remembered the reason why this task even started.  Because the Dark Saint kidnapped Eclipse's father.  Which in turn resulted to him getting severely injured from Kagetsuki's attack when the other rescued her soon-to-be lover. 

If his memory served him right, that guy was a white-haired kitsune.  He only had a bit of glimpse of him from what Lhoris had shown them.  But from what Luo Yan could remember, the guy had that fragile beauty.  One that would make people particularly want to bully him.

So, he decided to use the classic 'beauty trap' to get the information he wanted from this Dark Saint.  After all, he's also a fragile white-haired beauty.

Luo Yan spoke again in a soft, trembling voice, "P-please… don't hurt me.  I- I beg you…"

He felt the hand gripping his neck slowly loosening.  But before his feet reached the ground, he felt a hand touching his face.  Of course, it could only belong to the only person with him here.

The Dark Saint stared at him with an almost fanatical glint in his gaze.  The other looked at him from head to toe and finally resting on his face.  Luo Yan had goosebumps all over.  Because he felt like a creepy snake was slithering all over his body. 

The other once again pinched his chin and moved his head from left to right.  Then, an overly satisfied smile appeared on his lips.  Like a customer who really liked what he saw after inspecting the goods that they were about to buy.

"How pretty," the Dark Saint commented.  He let go of his chin and lifted a few strands of Luo Yan's hair.  "Do you know, this is my favorite color?  Pure white.  Do you know why?"  He then kissed the strands of Luo Yan's hair that he was holding and said while looking at him with fascination, "Because it's so easy to dye it red with blood."

This snake essence!  Luo Yan almost blurted out.  He didn't say anything and just acted scared.  His whole body shook and he curled into himself.  Basically, just giving the impression that he's scared shitless.

"Don't be afraid, my beauty.  I won't kill you.  As long as you tell me where the body is, you won't be punished.  I will even let you warm my bed.  Such a big honor, don't you think?"

When Luo Yan heard that, he knew that his beauty-trap worked all too well.  At the same time, he just wanted to curse the game devs for designing this NPC this way.  Because, hello?  This guy was literally sexually harassing him.  Was this okay?  Damn game devs.  Should he ask for compensation?

Now, he was truly thankful that Shen Ji Yun couldn't hear what this guy was saying.  If the other did, then Luo Yan was sure that he would come running here just so he could beat this perverted bastard up.

He didn't let his annoyance show up on his face and just continued acting scared.

"I- I don't know.  I- I was just brought here as a l-lookout for a person.  And- and when that person took the body with him, he- he just disappeared," he said in an almost crying voice with matching teary eyes.  "H-he said that no one would be here at this time.  B-but i-it seemed that he lied about that too."

Just as he expected, the Dark Saint followed what he said and told him what he wanted to hear.  "It's true.  Under normal circumstances, I wouldn't be here.  But let's just say one of my loyal advisors told me that someone might be trespassing here.  And lo and behold, I really did find you."

Luo Yan was surprised hearing what the other said.  And also, at the same time, very confused.  Because the only 'loyal advisor' that fit the bill was, well, Beelzebub or at least, the dark mage he was inhabiting.  But there's no way that archdemon would betray them.  How could Beelzebub even tell this guy that they would be here when Luo Yan knew just how important this was to the archdemon?

The only plausible reason he could think of was that the owner of the body Beelzebub was inhabiting was somehow influenced by the archdemon's memory.  Of course, it was all accidental.  If the other knew all the details of the deal between them and Beelzebub, the four of them wouldn't probably be able to enter this place in peace. 

So, that dark mage probably only somehow 'felt' that something would be happening today at this room.  Just like how he 'prophesied' that a group of people would enter the valley of dragons and caused havoc there.  Thus, fully explaining why the Dark Saint was here right now.

Since he had already seemingly solved this mystery, it's time for him to go and leave here.   

"I- I really apologize.  I-I'm just paid for my stealth skills.  I really didn't know anything," he said, still acting all weak and helpless.  "P-please, can you untie me, milord?  It- it hurts…"

Meanwhile, Shen Ji Yun, on the other side, almost tripped when he heard that.
