Chapter 108 - DEPARTURE FROM BLACK LAKE (1/2)

”LET'S go,” Shen Ji Yun said to the other four members of Yunyue.

”A carriage could only accommodate four people,” Xu Ru said, then turned to the white-haired elf.  ”Why don't you join me in a carriage and we could talk about life.  Maybe before we arrived at Selene Palace, I could convince you to join my team.  What do you say, my lovely elf?”

Shen Ji Yun felt like all the veins on his forehead would pop if he listened more to this guy's nonsense.  Luo Jin and Bai Ze felt the same.  The three were planning to step forward and just beat this guy or something.  But before they could, Luo Yan already beat them to it.

”I'm sorry, but even if we talk to our hearts content, I don't think you can change my mind,” Luo Yan said, acting as if he was sorry that he couldn't agree with the player Alucard's request.

”Oh?  And why is that?” Xu Ru asked with interest.

Luo Yan raised one of his hand to his chin and started fidgeting.  Acting like he's hesitating if he should tell him the truth.  ”You see, I have an allergy against flirtatious people.  It's caused by a childhood trauma.  I have no control over it.  If they talk to me too long, I break out in hives.  Even if this is VR, I still feel uncomfortable.” He looked at Alucard, blinking those big blue eyes dusted with gold at him.  ”Mr. Alucard won't force me, right?”

Xu Ru became speechless for a moment.  But then he suddenly remembered that video from the forum.  The chance of this elf just acting was pretty high.  Realizing that, Xu Ru smiled.  ”Is that so?  Then maybe you just need exposure therapy.  If you spend more time with me, then maybe your allergy will be cured.  All the more reason to join my team, right?”

[Tch.  This guy's face is even thicker than I expected.] – Luo Yan thought.  So his cute pitiful attack was not working, huh?  Then he would just change his strategy then.  They didn't have the time to dawdle here and play word games with this guy.

He put down his hand and smiled.  ”Sorry.  I'm actually lying just now.  I just didn't want to hurt your feelings.  But the truth is, I just prefer YUN as my captain.  So no matter how long you try to persuade me, it won't work.  Because you're simply not my type.  Oh, I'm talking about you being my captain, in case you misunderstand.  Also, I don't like the frivolous way you're talking to me.  Even though I really don't have allergy, you constantly calling me 'my lovely' is still giving me the hives.  So, please stop.” He tilted his head and smiled sweetly.  ”Okay?”

Luo Jin grimaced a bit.  Here it came, his brother's dark side.

Shen Ji Yun still remained expressionless.  But if you looked closely, one could see that the tips his ears, even the back of his neck, were completely red.  Because his mind was currently stuck on the part where Luo Yan said; 'I just prefer YUN'.  The rabbit preferred him more than that Alucard!

”Let's go and pick a carriage to ride,” Luo Yan said to the other four members of his team.

The five then started walking towards the direction where the carriages where parked.

Xu Ru looked at the back of the elf and he couldn't help the laugh that erupted from him.  What an interesting guy.

Bai Ze was also laughing his ass off.  ”That was a good one, Xiao Yan.”

Su Yuqi glanced at Luo Yan.  Well, it's good that he's not as naïve and simple as he looked.

”That wasn't too much, was it?” Luo Yan asked, trying to act troubled.

”No,” Shen Ji Yun said without hesitation.
