“Aren, Aren, look! It’s Dragon Peace!”

I glanced at it. As it turned out, it was one of the hero series figurines that the convenience store gives out after collecting enough points. “I have this one too. I finished collecting all four of them, since the fifth generation is relatively easy to collect.”

“Fifth generation?”

An Xiang Ye looked at me with wide eyes, as though I was speaking an alien language… That’s not right! I’m speaking a language from Earth. You’re the one who is an alien!

Charles-gē explained with a smile, “Young Master, because giving out hero figures as an event was very popular, convenience stores kept releasing new series. They are all centered on The Four Great Heroes, with the heroes in different poses. Currently, they are on the fifth generation.”

“Aren, so you have been collecting them too? Do you have the complete set from one to five?”

I nodded my head, even though I was a bit reluctant to admit to it. To be still collecting figures even though I’m already this age is a little embarrassing.

“But, I don’t have the secret edition version of Dark Sun from the fourth generation. That one was too difficult to get.”

After saying so, Charles-gē told me with a smile that he had two of the secret edition version of Dark Sun from the fourth generation, and just happened to be able to give me one of them.

“What is a secret edition?” An Xiang Ye asked once again with his eyes wide.

Actually, you’re the one who is a vampire, and Charles-gē is the human, right?

(Spoiler warning for people who haven’t read Eclipse Hunter V5. Near the end of this chapter, there is a paragraph that details events related to EHv5’s conclusion. If you wish to skip the spoiler, skip the paragraph that starts with “The young master suddenly became emotional.” The rest of the chapter is safe.)

The four of us played the game together, only fifty times in total. An Xiang Ye, you alone won thirty-something times. What’s going on? This is only a dice throw and betting on whether it’s big or small. It’s only a matter of luck and doesn’t require any skill.

An Xiang Ye, as expected, you are an alien!

However, not winning even once might be even more formidable than winning thirty times…

Dell-gē, you’re also an alien, right?

Doot doot doot—

As the call cut off, Lu Yang stared at the phone and frowned, realizing that something was amiss. He had already been trapped here for a long time. If it weren’t for the fact that he was carrying a plastic bag with breakfast and a can of milk tea inside, he would have died just from thirst!

The other person seemed to have no intent to face off against him, and instead had merely trapped him in this place, making him unable to act.

This was a small crossroad within the alleyways, its location extremely close to the university he was studying at. He was accustomed to taking this route to school, and this place happened to be a small back street. There simply weren’t many people passing by, especially at nine o’clock in the morning, when those working would have already started work and those going to class might not come through here.

Therefore, it was definitely the best possible place to put a “barrier dimension.”

“Umm… Ziya? Ziya?”

Jiang Ziya was in the middle of stocking the books on the bookshelf when he suddenly heard his name. He then automatically turned to look.

A man wearing an apron, with hair in a small ponytail and a pair of golden-framed glasses on his face, said helplessly, “You have already put that pile of books onto the bookshelves and taken it off numerous times.”

Jiang Ziya froze, and then quickly put the books back on the bookshelves. He said, “I’m sorry, Boss. I was zoning out.”

The person in front of him was the owner of Jiu Ge Bookstore, Fu Taiyi. He asked in concern, “What’s wrong? I seldom see you so absent-minded.”

“Nothing. Maybe I just slept too late yesterday…” Jiang Ziya said, feeling a little guilty. However, it was also the truth. Last night, thinking about the issue with Xiao Xue had made him unable to fall asleep, and he didn’t know how long he had lain there before he had truly fallen asleep.

An Xiang Ye really is Dark Sun!

Since I’m in the same class as him, it’s not as if I’ve never suspected him before. After all, silver hair is simply too rare.

However, both Leanna and Abner refused to consider the possibility. They said that they always see An Xiang Ye studying earnestly in class every day, unlike me, who sleeps in practically every class. If he was actually Dark Sun, he would have to go out to patrol every night. Since he’s so active at night, he wouldn’t be able to attend classes earnestly like that during the daytime.

I agreed with them. To go out patrolling every night was simply too tiring. If it weren’t for Leanna and Abner, who always drag me to school, I would probably skip classes nine out of ten days.

Therefore, An Xiang Ye, who always scores full marks on tests, hands in reports that are as thick as a book, and never sleeps in class, should not be Dark Sun.

In the end, he really did end up being Dark Sun.

According to Charles-gē, once An Xiang Ye returns home, the first thing that he does is complete his homework. Then, he gives his brother a call and talks. Some days, he modifies machines, which is his hobby. Then, he goes to sleep at ten, and wakes up at five to go running… What kind of life is this?

If something were to happen at night, he would still become Dark Sun and go out to resolve the issue… Doesn’t he need to sleep?

I believe that An Xiang Ye is not merely Dark Sun. In fact, he’s practically an alien!
