Chapter 554 - MOST HANDSOME

THE one walking towards them was a tall man.  He had long black hair scattered over his shoulder and back.  He was wearing some kind of black ancient robe.  Its design was simple but very tasteful.  Even with the clothes, one could see that his body was perfectly structured.  Like some kind of Greek statue. 

Luo Yan couldn't help but feel that he had seen this guy somewhere.  Then he noticed the arrogant glint on his pair of golden beast-like eyes, looking at them condescendingly.  Something just clicked in his head.  Although he wasn't sure if his guess was correct, he had a feeling that he really was.  Especially after seeing those eyes.

"Dusk?" 

The man in front of them smirked arrogantly.  "You have good eyes, moon elf.  You immediately recognized this king."

Even though he had already guessed it, having this guy admit it himself was still kind of surprising.  Probably because he had never expected that Dusk would actually transform to his humanoid form.  He just assumed he would transform back to his miniature version. 

But he should have known that Dusk would not do that.  After all, with the seal on him lifted, with his personality, he would definitely prefer his humanoid form rather than the miniature form that he thought of as embarrassing. 

Shen Ji Yun was also quite surprised.  Although he should have probably already expected this.  Legendary races in this game, whether it's a player or an NPC, had two forms – humanoid and bestial.  Some rare races also had two forms.  And, of course, there were the beastkins. 

This dragon, with his king complex, wouldn't allow to forever stay in that miniature form.  Especially if he could just simply return to his humanoid form.

Eclipse suddenly jumped from Luo Yan's arms and started encircling Dusk.  [Wow!  Are you really uncle black lizard?] – he asked in a very amazed tone while walking around the dragon, as if inspecting him.

Dusk looked down at the little fox, his gaze had a mixture of annoyance and arrogance.  "Stop calling this king that atrocious name!  Don't you have eyes?  In which part of me do you see a lizard?"

[Yup.  You're definitely uncle black lizard.]

Eclipse them jumped to Luo Yan's shoulder.  It's like after confirming that the handsome guy was indeed Dusk, he already lost interest.  Making Dusk looked like he had eaten some spoiled food.

"Dusk is really handsome," Luo Yan commented when he saw that the dragon might start bickering again with Eclipse.

As expected, the dragon's mood quickly soared.  He even raised his chin and proudly said, "This king is indeed handsome."

Shen Ji Yun unconsciously glared at Dusk after hearing Luo Yan's praise.  He couldn't help but feel jealous because of that.  Although it was immature, after all the object of his jealousy was basically an NPC in a game, he still couldn't help it. 

His gaze must have been a little too cold because the dragon quickly noticed it and glared back at him.  "Why are you looking at this king like that?"

[Because you're prying Captain's corner.] – the little fox said, answering Dusk's question.  [That's bad, you know?  Brothers should not do that to each other.]

"Who's prying whose corner?  And how could this king become brothers with a qilin?" Dusk roared as if truly offended by what Eclipse said.

Shen Ji Yun's attention was taken by what the dragon suddenly said.  Obviously, the little fox probably made a snide comment once again that's why Dusk responded like that.  He could only guess what Eclipse said that warranted such a response.

It probably went along the lines of Dusk prying into his corner.  But why would Eclipse even think that?  Just because Luo Yan complimented the dragon a bit?  Wasn't that a bit too over the top? 

But well, this was Eclipse they were talking about.  Even if he hadn't heard the other's voice in his head, his little antics and that short time he 'copied' someone to transform showed what kind of character setting he had.  That kind of comment would definitely come out of the little fox's mouth.

"Okay," Luo Yan said, clapping his hand to capture everyone's attention.  "Why don't we all start searching for the site of the demon fox tribe?"

"We're already in the vicinity," Shen Ji Yun said, his tone of voice turning back to seriousness.  "The demon fox tribe is known for their skills in creating illusion.  If we could find some weird formation or something that seemed to be out of place, it could be the entrance to their site."

"Hmm… I wonder which great being would help us look for that entrance," Luo Yan said, acting as if he was truly having trouble thinking of a solution.

Just as he expected, Dusk quickly said, "Hmp!  Just something like this and you still need help?  As I've thought, you really are no match for this king.  But because this king is very generous, I will let you see just how great I am.  This king will find that entrance in a matter of seconds."

After arrogantly declaring that, the dragon walked deeper into the woods.

[Mashter, Mashter!  Eclipse will also search for the entrance!  Eclipse will show to uncle black lizard that Eclipse is much better than him!] – the little fox said indignantly.

Luo Yan glanced at Eclipse.  Considering that the other was also a part of the demon fox tribe, he might indeed have a better chance of finding the entrance.  And besides, he glanced at the blue gem on Eclipse's forehead, maybe that could also help in some way.

[Okay.  Master will follow along with you.] – he said, rubbing the little fox's fluffy head.

[Mashter, Eclipse will definitely not disappoint you!]

Eclipse then excitedly jumped down from his shoulder and went on the opposite direction of Dusk.  Luo Yan shook his head when he saw such a childish action. 

"Is Eclipse also going to look for the entrance?" Shen Ji Yun asked, watching the little fox.

"Yes.  I will go with him.  Brother Ji Yun should follow Dusk.  If discover anything, let's not forget to call the other," Luo Yan said, pointing at their new earrings.

Shen Ji Yun didn't have any opinion on that and just nodded.

"By the way, Brother Ji Yun."  Luo Yan moved closer to Shen Ji Yun and whispered, "I think you're the most handsome."

After saying that, he quickly followed Eclipse with a smile on his lips.
