The Return of the God Level Assassin [BL] Chapter 716

LONG blue-black hair, tied in a low ponytail, spilled out from the ruined hood. Two long pointed ears peaked out. They were filled with dangling earrings which were totally not in line with the character that Razor had shown so far. But the most eye-catching of all was Razor's skin. It was blue. Even his lips were dark blue in color.

This unexpected appearance completely taken Luo Yan aback. Anyone would in his situation. Because someone with blue skin was the last thing anyone would think when they wondered what Razor looked like under the mask and the hood. 

Aside from the surprise factor, he was also affected by curiosity. The moment he saw the blue skin, he wondered just what was the other's race. Although Razor's ears were pointed, they were a bit different from an elf. An elf's ears were pointed upward while the other's ears weren't pointing upwards or downwards, they were in the middle. He couldn't think of a race that would fit Razor's features.

Luo Yan would probably continue mulling over that if he did not see Razor rushing towards him. He raised his daggers and also rushed forward to meet the other mid-way. 

He slashed one of his daggers sideways. He was already expecting the other to dodge it. But surprisingly enough, Razor didn't. The moment the dagger slashed through the other's body, Razor suddenly turned into a puff of blue smoke.

Luo Yan's first thought was that the other was about to transform from a humanoid form to some kind of beast form. Considering his experience of seeing Shen Ji Yun and Eclipse transform, this smoke definitely looked like a prelude to that. If his race was something that had a beast form, then that would also explain his appearance.

Before he could lament on whether his assumption was correct, the blue smoke dispersed. He blinked in surprise because of this. Then, suddenly, he heard a loud shout in his head. It was Eclipse's voice. 

[Mashter, behind you!]

Because of this sudden shout, his body instinctively jumped forward. Turning around in mid-air, he saw a blade that thrusted towards him. If not for Eclipse's warning, he would have been already stabbed by that blade. But more than that, his attention was attracted by the blue flame behind the blade's dagger.

From the blue flame appeared a hand, then an arm, and then a body. Razor appeared with the half side of his body covered in blue flames while the lower half – from his thighs to his feet – was surrounded by blue smoke.

Seeing this, Luo Yan's eyes contracted. Well, the possibility of the other transforming into his beast form also disappeared like a smoke at this moment. And the curiosity of wanting to know what the other's race was only intensified even more. 

He was only awakened when he heard Eclipse's voice in his head again.

[Mashter, sorry if Eclipse interfere with your fight.]

A small smile appeared on Luo Yan's face. This little guy was probably worried that he would be angry because of his sudden warning. After all, he did say that he wanted to win this match without Eclipse's help.

[It's fine. I'm not angry. Thank you, Eclipse.] – he said. [Can you ask Captain if he knows what race my opponent is?]

He decided to just ask. He didn't want his curiosity get the better of him. It would be too embarrassing if the reason he lost was because of his lack of concentration due to being too curious, then he might as well forfeit this match now.

[Okay. Eclipse will ask Captain!]

As Eclipse was asking Shen Ji Yun, Luo Yan's opponent had already dispersed into smoke again. He frowned a bit. An opponent that could turn into smoke was definitely troublesome. But two could play the same game.

Before a blue flame could appear once again out of nowhere, Luo Yan had already taken his [Invisibility Cloak] out. Completely disappearing from everyone's view. 

And so, in the audience eyes, what appeared was an empty rink with a blue smoke floating around.

Cai Hong narrowed his eyes and almost couldn't resist the urge to sigh. He didn't think that Noctis still had something like this under his sleeve. He actually didn't want to fight in this form. Simply because he wasn't used to this kind of fighting style. He preferred the much more visceral type of fighting. The kind where he could go one-on-one with a person without the use of any kind of stealth. Just like how he and Noctis had fought.

But as much as he liked that kind of fight, he didn't like when it's being prolonged. Because a long fight was just simply boring. So, after his appearance was revealed in front of everyone – which was kind of annoying by the way – he decided to simply use one of the characteristics of his race. 

He thought he could take the other by surprise and quickly end the fight. Who would have thought that Noctis would manage to dodge his attack as if he had eyes behind his back?

And now, the other had also disappeared from his sight.

If the former round was a battle of speed and strength, then, was this round a battle of stealth?

Hah, it seemed like he really had to work hard to win this match. He looked around and narrowed his eyes. Now, where did his opponent go?

The moment Luo Yan used the cloak, he quickly rushed to one corner of the rink. This way, he had a clear vision of where that blue smoke was. Unlike him who was completely covered by the cloak, Razor didn't really completely disappear. He could still see a blue smoke floating here and there, indicating the other's location on the rink.

He was thinking what move he should do next when he heard Eclipse's voice in his head.

[Mashter, Mashter, Captain told Eclipse what the big smurf's race is!]

Luo Yan almost burst out laughing when he heard Eclipse's description of Razor. It's a good thing he managed to stop himself on time. [What is it?]

[He's a Djinn!]
