The Return of the God Level Assassin [BL]

LUO YAN followed Luo Jin to the kitchen, a bit curious why he was in a bad mood.  He found him getting a carton container of orange juice.  He didn't bother getting a glass and just directly drank from it.

"It's bad manners to drink straight from the container," Luo Yan commented.

Luo Jin glanced at him.  "Well, I just did," he said and then placed the orange juice on the counter top.

"Why are you in a bad mood?" Luo Yan asked innocently, blinking his big peach blossom eyes at his younger brother.

"I'm not."

"Yes, you are."

"I'm not."

"You are."

"I'm--" Luo Jin stopped.  What was he doing, arguing with his second brother like they were a couple of children?  Totally not cool.  He sighed.  "Fine.  I'm in a bad mood."

"Was it because of Arcadia?"

Hearing the name of that stupid game, all his annoyance resurfaced again.  And he couldn't help but remember what happened.

Let's back track a bit.

= Two hours ago... =

After carefully reading the game manual, Luo Jin wore the VR helmet and then turned it on.  The surrounding became similar to a dark starry sky and then the words 'Welcome to Arcadia' appeared.  When it disappeared, Luo Jin found himself in the middle of a garden.  Then a shorty impersonating a butler suddenly appeared in front of him.

  "Welcome new player!  I'm the Gamekeeper, I'm here to assist you in your first step to enter the world of Arcadia.  First, please enter your chosen game name on the screen in front of you," the boy wearing a butler's uniform introduced himself.  

Then a virtual screen appeared in front of Luo Jin.  There was a keypad that he could use to input the name he wanted.  He frowned.  He hadn't thought of a name yet.  He shrugged.  He'd just chose whatever.  He typed [Overlord].

"I'm sorry but the name [Overlord] has already been taken.  Please enter another name," said the Gamekeeper.

He entered another name but it was taken yet again.  Then he entered another and another and another.  Until Luo Jin came to a point where his patience was already at its limit.  He could even feel the ticking of the muscles on his face.  Out of extreme annoyance, he entered the words [AmazingYoungMasterJin].

"Congratulations!  The name [AmazingYoungMasterJin] is not yet taken.  From now on, this would be your official game account name."

Luo Jin almost cursed.  Great.  He resisted the urge to cause bodily harm to the little butler in front of him.  So he could at least vent his dissatisfaction.

Then next the annoying butler asked what gender he would use.  Of course he picked male.  Then if he wanted to customize his appearance.  He didn't bother with that part.  Why would he?  He's perfectly fine with the way he looked.  Finally, the butler asked about what race he would picked.

There were five choices in front of Luo Jin; Humans, Elves, Beastkins, Gnomes, and a Random Selection.  He suddenly remembered what his second brother said.  That he would choose the random selection because there's a chance he could get a rare race.  Luo Jin also decided to choose that.  

After picking the random selection, the little butler said, "Your race is now locked.  You can now enter Arcadia.  Strive to be the best.  But I hope you won't forget to have fun.  Welcome to the start of your new wonderful journey!  Best of luck!"  

Then the butler slowly vanished as well as the surrounding garden.  After that, Luo Jin felt like he was being sucked inside a washing machine.  He was spinning and spinning until his back hit something solid.  

He opened his eyes and saw that he was inside a small room with a flickering light on the ceiling.  He seemed to be lying on a hard mattress.  He tried to sit down but his attention was caught by his hands.  He raised both his hands and stared at it dumbfoundly.  

In front of him was a pair of delicate, child-like hands.

This time, he did curse.

=====

Luo Jin felt a sudden headache when he remembered that.  "I don't want to talk about it."

Luo Yan looked at his brother's appearance.  He suddenly felt like teasing him.  "So it did have something to do with the game.  Did you choose the random selection?"  Luo Jin didn't answer.  But from the obvious stiffening of his body, Luo Yan's guess was probably correct.  "Perhaps... you don't like the race you ended up with?"

"I said I don't want to talk about it," Luo Jin said, irritation clear in his tone.

His race was probably too embarrassing for him that's why he had such a strong reaction.  

"Then, are you not playing the game anymore?  But you told Dad that you will play with me," Luo Yan said, full of grievance in his tone.  

Luo Jin panicked a bit, afraid that his second brother would cry.  "I'm going to play with you.  But I have to buy another VR helmet first."

Because for some reason, you couldn't make another game account unless you use another VR helmet.  What a way to take money from the public.

"Why would you buy another VR helmet?" Luo Yan asked curiously.  Though he already suspected why.  It definitely had something to do with his race.  "Did the VR helmet Dad bought for you not working?"

"It's working.  But--"

"Then just use it."  Luo Yan touched his younger brother's arm and looked up at him.  "Surely Ah Jin won't give up just because you encountered something you didn't like, right?"

Luo Jin gazed down at his second brother and suddenly felt guilty.  Because that's exactly what he's planning to do.  Ah.  Whatever!  It's just a game.  It's not like everyone would know that it's him.  He'd just continue to play using that account.

"Right," he reluctantly agreed.

Luo Yan smiled.  "What's your game account name?  I'll add you to my friend list when I log in tomorrow."

Luo Jin's face scrunched up, as if he suddenly ate a very sour candy.  "It's 'AmazingYoungMasterJin'."

It took all of Luo Yan's willpower just not to laugh after hearing that.  Instead, he smiled sweetly at Luo Jin.  "What a great name!"

"You think so?"

"Of course."

Luo Jin's expression returned to normal because of what he said.

Luo Yan needed to brainwash his younger brother a bit.  Because he might really buy another VR helmet and create another account.  Then how would he know what kind of race Luo Jin ended up with?
