Godslayer: I am the agent of King of Glory heroes

"Seven Nights, even if you're busy with missions, it's never a problem to make a phone call when you have a spare moment."

"Your aunt doesn't need to call often, just let the family know you're safe at least once a year!" When her aunt saw Lin Qiye, she was both surprised and delighted, her eyes reddening.

“Aunt, I’ve been on a secret mission for the past two years and haven’t been able to contact the outside world, so…” Lin Qiye couldn’t hide his guilt, but he didn’t agree to make the phone call as his aunt wished.

He had already experienced how painful it was to break a promise.

Jiang Shiyuan once said that one should not make promises that cannot be kept, and he thought this made a lot of sense.

The situation in Daxia is tense, and no one knows if another accident like the Japanese 'human circle' will occur. He cannot agree to it casually just because he wants to appease his aunt.

Making his aunt wait for his call every day, only to be disappointed day after day, would be even more unfilial.

"You've really grown up, child." Auntie hadn't expected Lin Qiye to refuse even a simple lie, so she could only sigh and pat Lin Qiye's hand.

She understood Lin Qiye's thoughts, but she was always preoccupied with them and just wanted to give herself some psychological comfort.

On the other side of the dining table.

Jiang Shiyuan and Hongying sat together chatting. After they had eaten and drunk their fill, she suddenly remembered Wangcai, the little orange cat she had met a few times.

"By the way, Sister Hongying, I remember the old lady next door has a free-roaming cat named Wangcai. Do you think I can find it if I go there now?"

“Wangcai…” Hongying paused for a moment, then hesitated, “I haven’t seen it in a long time either, you can try looking for it.”

"Then I'll try."

Jiang Shiyuan, familiar with the place, rummaged through a drawer in a nearby cabinet and found two cat tags. Following the route she had taken when she first encountered Wangcai, she walked along the edge of the flower bed.

After searching for a while, they couldn't find the cat, but they did find a handsome young man holding a blue kitten.

"Why are you here? You're going back to the capital tonight. Don't you want to talk to your aunt more?" Jiang Shiyuan raised an eyebrow. She's a grown woman, she won't get lost.

"I heard from Sister Hongying that you wanted to find Wangcai. Have you found him?" Lin Qiye stroked the cat's head, looking as calm as if he had only come out to let the kitten in his arms play with Wangcai.

"No, but that's normal. He probably went off to have some fun somewhere." Jiang Shiyuan shrugged.

It's already quite a coincidence that a free-roaming kitten can run into someone twice in a row; it's impossible for her to find them every time.

“If you like cats, why not just pet a Thunder Beast? It’s available whenever you call, and you don’t have to scoop its poop; it can even understand human speech.” Lin Qiye said, lifting up the blue kitten in his hand, its eyes squinting in comfort, and shaking it.

"That's really convenient." Jiang Shiyuan chuckled, his attention immediately drawn to the Thunder Beast, and he momentarily forgot what he had been thinking.

Thunder Beast: "Meow!" It has to sell its body again? It's a divine beast!

"Be good." Lin Qiye gently patted the Thunder Beast's head twice more before placing it in Jiang Shiyuan's arms.

Thunder Beast: "...Meow~" Oh well, practice makes perfect.

"She's so well-behaved, she doesn't need to be fed or have her poop scooped..."

"Tell me when you want to touch it, and I'll summon it."

Lin Qiye casually took the cat treat from Jiang Shiyuan's hand, put it in his pocket, and continued walking forward.

Actually, he hadn't planned to come along, since she hadn't invited him.

But then he realized that after the Cangnan War, the Cangnan residents, who should have been wiped out by Shiva's Wrath, all disappeared on that day, including Wangcai's owner...

So, he still brought the Thunder Beast to find her.

……

Dishes and cups were scattered, leftover food lay uneaten, and laughter slowly settled in the air. Amidst the crackling of firecrackers, everyone understood that it was time to part ways again.

Water is ever-changing. Flowers have their end. We will meet again. But life is a journey of separation.

Perhaps people in this world are always meeting and parting repeatedly, in an endless cycle.

"Sister Hongying, we're leaving now."

Tomorrow, the recruits' holiday will end.

With a major battle imminent, intensive training must continue. As a specially invited instructor, [Nightfall] needs to conduct a final, grueling training session for the new recruits in just a few days.

The new recruits need to graduate immediately, and then... head to the battlefield.

Hongying hugged Jiang Shiyuan tightly. Even though she was extremely reluctant to part with him, she knew the current situation in Daxia. It was already a pleasant surprise that everyone could return to Cangnan for a lively time, and she couldn't ask for more.

However, she had a lot to say.

She wanted to say that the rooms in the villa would always be reserved for Jiang Shiyuan and Lin Qiye, and that they could come back whenever they wanted without worrying about bothering her.

She wanted to say that when doing missions, you must protect yourself; your life is the most important thing.

She wanted to say that everyone should get together again for New Year's Eve dinner next year.

She wanted to say...

But in the end, all she said was...

"Keep it up, Xiao Shiyuan!"

"Sister Hongying, I will." Jiang Shiyuan's determination was so strong that she almost saluted Hongying.

"Don't talk about such sad things, Shi Yuan. If Qi Ye upsets you, don't hold it in. You must come back and tell us."

Unable to bear the somewhat somber atmosphere between the two, Zhao Kongcheng glanced at Lin Qiye, who was speaking gently to his aunt, and whispered to Jiang Shiyuan.

"That's a bit biased..." Jiang Shiyuan drawled, a bright smile spreading across her face. "But I like it."

“What favoritism? I’m not biased,” Zhao Kongcheng retorted. “I was just thinking that if there’s a misunderstanding, I can clear it up for you.”

Lin Qiye and Jiang Shiyuan are both treasures of Team 136, and are juniors whom he has treated like family. He has never shown favoritism towards either of them.

However, when the two returned this time, they both knew that Jiang Shiyuan had lost her memory.

Through Wu Xiangnan, it is known that the two are now in a romantic relationship. Coincidentally, Jiang Shiyuan has amnesia, or rather, selective amnesia, and has only forgotten Lin Qiye.

He said it was due to the mission, but his intuition told him that there was definitely something else going on.

"I have a mouth, whether it's Lin Qiye or anyone else, even if there's a misunderstanding, I can clear it up myself."

"Don't worry about it, old man." Jiang Shiyuan sighed and rubbed his forehead in exasperation.

"What do you mean, 'old man'... I'm still in my prime!"

Zhao Kongcheng wanted to glare, but Jiang Shiyuan was now considered a patient, so he could only take out a cigarette, mutter something, and walk out.

"Old Zhao always said that Qi Ye is a straight man, probably because he was afraid that Qi Ye was bad at speaking." Wen Qimo shook his head helplessly, which was considered an explanation for Zhao Kongcheng.

Jiang Shiyuan was speechless. Did the subtle feelings between her and Lin Qiye have to be so obvious?

Originally, she didn't really want to tell Hongying, Zhao Kongcheng, and Wen Qimo about her amnesia. She thought that saying it was a side effect of fighting against a god would definitely make the three of them worry.

However, Zhao Kongcheng noticed something was off as soon as he saw her and Lin Qiye today, and they hadn't been chatting for long before he realized something was wrong. She was speechless.
