INSIDE the shop, Luo Yan looked around the various items neatly displayed on glass shelves. Weapons, accessories, and armors, each had their own designated places. The shop was wide enough for customers to freely look around. There were also four screens, that were back to back to each other forming some kind of cube, floating at the middle. Customers could use that, probably to browse at the shop’s inventory.
There were six NPCs constantly moving around and assisting the customers. It was pretty obvious that this shop had a very organized operation. He must give Yu Jiao props to that.
Not long after, a male NPC walked up to them and asked, "Mr. Noctis, Mr. AmazingYoungMasterJin, our master is waiting for you at his office. Please, follow me."
Luo Yan almost burst out laughing when he heard what the NPC called Luo Jin. It was even funnier because the NPC said it as if it was a very normal name, like calling someone Mr. Lee or something. When he looked down at his younger brother, as expected, he saw that his face was completely dark. It’s getting even darker because of the snickering of some of the customers who heard it.
"Please, lead the way," Luo Yan quickly said before his brother completely blew off and lost his temper.
"This way, please," the NPC said, gesturing for them to follow.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe two did so, following behind the NPC. Of course, with Luo Jin stomping all the way.
[Mashter, why is your brother’s name so long? It even sounds so weird.] – Eclipse commented with his little face wrinkled, clearly showing his dislike of Luo Jin’s game account name.
[Well, that’s not really his name. Let’s just say it’s his alias. Just think of his name as ’Jin’.]
[Hmm... Jin is certainly a hundred times better.]
They entered a door which led to a stair. They climbed up to the second floor and the NPC led them to a room that seemed to serve as a lounge. Walking back and forth in the middle was a tall young man with messy black hair and a pair of sharp black eyes.
"Master, your guests are here," the NPC said.
Yu Jiao finally stopped walking and turned to them. An automatic smile appeared on her lips when she saw them. She turned first to the NPC and said, "You can leave us now."
The NPC bowed and left, closing the door of the lounge room when he did.
Luo Yan walked up to her. "Jiao Jiao, I hope you haven’t waited for us for too long."
Yu Jiao shook her head. "I also only just logged in when you sent me a message earlier," she said. "Please, sit down you two," she added, gesturing for them to sit.
Both brothers sat down on the empty seats.
Luo Yan quickly noticed the two wooden boxes placed on the center table. Both were rectangular in shape. But one had a smaller height compared to the other.
Yu Jiao saw that Luo Yan was looking at the two boxes. So, she no longer wasted time and said, "The weapons I made for you two are inside these boxes." She pushed the one with the shorter height to Luo Yan. "This is yours." Then she pushed the other to Luo Jin. "And this is yours. I hope you both would like it."
"Of course, we will," Luo Yan quickly said. "Anything that Jiao Jiao makes would definitely be amazing. Right, Ah Jin?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLuo Jin was no longer listening to them once he heard that his new weapon was inside the box in front of him. Despite that, he still unconsciously nodded.
"Go ahead and open it," Yu Jiao said.
She was actually feeling really nervous, worried if the two would like what she did. She had never felt like that when she was making weapons for others. Maybe because this time she was not making one for a customer but for a friend rather.
When he heard what Yu Jiao said, Luo Jin hastily opened the box. He couldn’t even hide the excitement radiating within him. He almost caught his breath when he saw the two guns inside.
Both guns had a barrel much longer and thicker than ordinary handgun. One was the color of dark copper with a grip that had a much darker shade. On top of the barrel near the grip was an appendage like horn while the one at the bottom were like dragon wings. In between them was fiery red crystal. The other one had the same design. The only difference was that its color was in metallic blue and the crystal embedded on it was ice blue.
Luo Jin held both guns. The one with the red crystal was hot to the touch while the one with the blue crystal was cold. His eyes as he looked at the guns were as bright as the sun. One could tell just by looking at him that he really liked his new weapon.
Beside him, Luo Yan was also staring at his new weapon lying inside the wooden box. The twin daggers inside had a blade as dark as the night sky. Their edges had a bit of jagged corners. Their hilt was also as dark with silver linings that seemed like scales. A few inches above the hilt, both daggers had a pure and clear crystal embedded in them. He would bet that those crystals were the core of the Eternal Lotus.
He picked up both daggers. They were very light, he could barely even feel their weight. He then stood up and tried a slashing movement. A dark afterimage could almost be seen with his every move.
Unknowingly, a big grin had already appeared on his face. He truly liked – no, he absolutely loved these twin daggers. Not only because of their design but also because of how easy they were to use.
Seeing the obvious reaction of the two, Yu Jiao finally let go of her hanging heart. She couldn’t help but secretly pump her fist. Because the two obviously liked the weapons she made.
