The Return of the God Level Assassin

He walked towards her. "Jiao Jiao, sorry if I was a bit late. There was just a... complication I had to deal with."

And that ’complication’ was standing right behind him.

When he logged into the game, he appeared at Olkdale City’s plaza. But his father was nowhere in sight. So, he had to search for him first before looking for Yu Jiao.

Last night, when their father told them that Moonlight Media sent him a VR helmet, his brothers’ reaction was very colorful and even comedic in a way. Luo Jin almost spilled the water he was about to drink with an unbelieving expression on his face. While Luo Yan was just stunned.

But still, the latter, despite his surprise, managed to ask the right questions. About what kind of special VR helmet was sent to him or if there were any special instructions that came with the helmet.

Their father said that he hadn’t really checked it yet. So, after dinner, he took the box containing the VR helmet and showed it to them. Unlike the ordinary VR helmet that mainly used silver as a color scheme, the helmet sent to their father used gold. As if shouting to everyone, ’look how special I am!’.

They let Luo Yan checked and read the instruction manual that was inside the box. After that, the other told them that anyone with this VR helmet could choose any race he wanted inside the game and he could also go to any place without any restriction caused by his level.

When Luo Ren heard that, he felt a little envious. He even thought that maybe he should have gotten that VR helmet instead of a normal one. At least with that, he could go to the city where Yu Jiao’s blacksmith shop was. Was it too late to ask for the same VR helmet?

Anyway, as a precaution, they all logged into the game that evening. Just so their father could get used to the VR helmet, as well as the game itself. It was actually a bit funny since all of them sat inside the entertainment room of their house, like they were about to watch a movie or something.

They told their father to go to Olkdale City once he logged in since, well, that’s the only place Luo Ren could go to without having to teleport. Their meeting went without a hitch. That’s why he found it rather weird that when he logged in this evening, his father wasn’t where he was supposed to be.

He had to message the other to ask where he was. The answer he got was that his father was walking around the town since he was too ’slow’. Which was total nonsense, by the way. He was pretty sure that the two of them logged into the game at the same time. After all, they both returned from work together.

His father’s attention was probably attracted by something. Just like how it was the evening before where the other was simply curious about anything he saw. Even a little something could take his father’s attention away. It just showed that the concept of a VR game was truly novel for him.

But since the other was his father and deserved his respect, he didn’t reveal his lie and just went to where he was. And now they’re back at this moment.

"It’s okay, I don’t mind," Yu Jiao said. "There’s still 20 minutes late before the start of the tournament, so, we’re not really late." She was about to ask if they should go now to the venue when she noticed that there was actually someone standing behind Luo Ren. "Is he... with you?"

That person walked forward and stood beside Luo Ren. Yu Jiao almost gasped because the other looked so similar to Luo Ren, the only difference was their avatars’ hair and eye color. The man had long white hair and blue eyes speckled with gold dust instead of blond hair and green eyes. With the long-pointed ears, she could see that the other was a moon elf.

Her first thought was, ’is this person related to Brother Ren?’.

"Hello," Luo Wei Tian greeted the tall boy in front of him. Luo Yan had already told him that the one taking them to the venue of this tournament was his friend and classmate. "You’re Yu Jiao, right? It’s nice to meet you. I’m Xiao Yan’s dad."

Yu Jiao’s eyes almost became as big as a saucer’s. This was Luo Yan’s father? How come he’s so young? He looked like he was only in his mid-20s!

Seeing Yu Jiao’s reaction, Luo Ren sighed and said, "Yes, he’s our dad."

Luo Wei Tian probably realized that the handsome boy in front of them might be too surprised to hear that he was already a father when he only looked like he was Luo Ren’s brother in this form. No, what did they call this again? Ah, right, this avatar.

"I’m indeed their dad. I just made myself look a little younger," he said with a laugh.

Luo Ren glanced at his father. Last night, when he and his brothers saw their father’s avatar for the first time, it was actually quite a surprise to the three of them. Because not only did their father picked moon elf as a race – they all knew why he picked it, by the way – he also made himself look younger.

Yu Jiao couldn’t remember if there was actually an option like that when creating an avatar, but she still bowed to the other and said, "Hello, Uncle."

She looked at the man who looked so much like Luo Ren. Although she wasn’t familiar with the upper echelon of S City’s high society, she knew that this man was the big boss of Tianhua Group.

From Mo Jian’s constant chattering about how much he wanted to be connected to the Luo family via Luo Jin, she learned that the head of the Luo family was a self-made man. He did not come from a rich family, instead, he became one of the richest men in S City and even the country by working hard for it.

That’s really admirable and inspiring in Yu Jiao’s opinion.

Now, he was even here to watch and support his two sons despite his surely busy schedule. Just by that, one could see that he was a very good father.

"Shall we go now to the venue?" she asked.

"Wait, Jiao Jiao. You have a little smudge on your face," Luo Ren said.

Before Yu Jiao could react, the other had already reached out to her and wiped whatever smudge was on her face. "There, it’s all gone."

Yu Jiao blinked and then instinctively gazed down. Because she could feel her cheeks heating up. "T-thank you."

Luo Wei Tian was truly surprised seeing such a scene. He looked at his eldest son who was smiling like an angel and then at the handsome tall boy who’s now blushing to the roots of his ears.

He suddenly didn’t know what to feel at that moment.
