THEIR plan for this weekend was to finish the 'Awakening Dragon' hidden task.  To do that they had to go to the dragon clan to find out the identity of the dragon who betrayed Dusk.  And if time permitted it, they should also go to the land of Achaeus to visit the dark mages.  If they couldn't finish those things this weekend, they could just do that the next week. 

They almost had all the information regarding Dusk's past, how he ended up frozen in time at Silent Marsh.  He was a nameless dragon who left the dragon clan when he was young.  Because of what happened to Eclipse's mother and the demon fox tribe he decided to take revenge. 

The first step in this revenge was to take over the dragon clan and became its king.  With the help of his fellow dragons, he waged war against the Dark Mages of Achaeus.  Which was most likely the people responsible for what happened to Kagetsuki and the demon fox tribe. 

But during that attack, someone from the dragon clan betrayed Dusk.  And then at the end, he ended up in the Silent Marsh, frozen in time by the Eternal Lotus.  When he woke up, he no longer had any memories of the past.

Luo Yan glanced at the miniature black dragon on Shen Ji Yun's shoulder.  Despite the obvious reluctance on his face, Dusk was still clinging particularly well on the other's shoulders.  Although Shen Ji Yun still had no expression on his face, it was quite obvious that he also didn't like the other using his shoulder as some kind of foothold.  Although he wasn't complaining, one could see that he was simply pretending that there wasn't any miniature dragon on his shoulder.

Well, at least, he wasn't dragging him or something.  That's already a huge step-up from before. 

"Hi Dusk, how have you been?" he asked, smiling at the miniature dragon.

"Hmp!  If you make that sadistic pixie girl and that annoying kitsune stay away from me, then I would feel infinitely better," Dusk said with a disgruntled tone.

Luo Yan raised one of his brows when he heard that.  He understood why he didn't want Eclipse around.  Because the little fox was like a chatterbox who seemed unable to stop speaking once he started.  With how Dusk was programmed, he would definitely find Eclipse annoying.  But why Su Yuqi as well?

"Su Yuqi seemed to be bothering him whenever she's bored," Shen Ji Yun said, as if reading the question in his mind.

"What 'bothering'?  She's clearly torturing me!  That- that sadistic lunatic!" Dusk said, looking like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.

[Uncle black lizard, don't say bad things about pink sister!  She's clearly just playing with you.  And don't say that you want Eclipse to stay away.  Eclipse is clearly your godson.  You should treat Eclipse well!] – Eclipse suddenly intervened.

"Stop with that godson nonsense!  Who wants to be your godfather?" the miniature dragon grunted.

The little fox looked at the dragon sympathetically.  [Eclipse will forgive you since Mashter said that you have amnesia now and you don't remember anything.  But once your memories returned, you should treat Eclipse well.]

Dusk snorted.  "If you want my memories restored, then tell that to these two."

"Don't worry, we are working really hard to know more about your past," Luo Yan assured the dragon.

Dusk only scoffed then sat comfortably on Shen Ji Yun's shoulder.  Shen Ji Yun glanced sideways at the dragon, narrowing his eyes.  Then he sighed as if he had already given up on scolding the dragon.  He removed his gaze and just remained expressionless.

Luo Yan almost laughed seeing this interaction.  Really, what a cute pair.

When he looked around, he noticed that there were a lot of players looking at their direction.  They were currently at Alryne City and were on their way to the headquarters of Crimson Corps. 

They planned to go there first to tell the leader of the said mercenary group about they had found about Finnea's death.  After that, they would then go to the moon elves' village to get the rewards for the 'Finnea's Curse' hidden task.  Their next destination then would be the site of the demon fox tribe.

Luo Yan didn't mind the gazes of the players around them.  He was already used to it.  He would probably be more surprise if they didn't stare.  Who told him to be this beautiful? 

But he must admit that the reason these players were probably staring too much right now was mostly because of the things that happed with Raphael.  And well, they did have a dragon in their midst.  He had already seen many players took a screenshot of them.  This would probably be another topic in the game forum.

Soon, they arrived at the headquarters of Crimson Corps.  They walked inside and they saw the same female NPC behind the reception desk.

"Good day, we're here to see your leader in regards to that Finnea business," Luo Yan said.

The receptionist seemed to recognize them and said, "Oh, yes, the leader had been waiting for you.  Do you still remember your way to his office?"

Luo Yan nodded.  "Yes."

"Then, you can just directly go there.  I will call him to inform him that you're here," the female NPC graciously said.

Luo Yan gave his thanks and walked towards the stairs.  If he remembered correctly, the leader's office was on the fourth floor and the one at the very end of the corridor.

He and Shen Ji Yun followed the direction in their mind.  Arriving in front of the room, Luo Yan was already expecting a messy room filled with smoke coming from the leader's pipa.  He knocked and a gruff voice told them to come in.

He opened the door and was surprised to see that although the room was still messy, it wasn't filled with smoke as he expected. Then he saw that the windows inside were all open.  Luo Yan raised one of his brows.  Did this NPC open the windows when he heard that they were here?  So, he still remembered that he didn't like the smell of smoke.

Luo Yan was once again amazed by the self-awareness of this game's NPC.
