Eclipse Hunter Volume 3: Angel, Slaughter

Original novel in Chinese by: 御我(Yu Wo)

Afterword—translated by lucathia (proofread by Minthe, Arcedemius & Trespasserby)

If volume 3 were the final volume, I would probably get beaten up by everyone until Yu Wo becomes Mashed Pota-Wo.

That’s why this isn’t the final volume. This isn’t the final volume. This isn’t the final volume. This really isn’t the final volume!

There are still two volumes after this, so don’t get riled up and grab weapons to come after me!

In the first two books, even though Ah Ye was slightly rebellious, it was still within the cute boundaries of stubbornness (I think…). In this book, he is truly rebellious.

Really, Ah Ye isn’t the obedient type. He started to rebel so soon after leaving the lab. But you can also say that this is recoil from being confined too long. Ah Ye has experienced being imprisoned for too long. He has had enough of it. That kind of feeling!

So, in this book, he has begun to rebel. His fath… I mean, his brother Ri Xiang Yan has begun to experience that children are actually… Wrong again! He has begun to experience that Dìdi won’t always listen obediently. He has his own way of thinking and doing things.

Eclipse Hunter Volume 3: Angel, Slaughter

Original novel in Chinese by: 御我(Yu Wo)

Chapter Ten: Loss—translated by Trespasserby (proofread by Arcedemius & Minthe; C/E edited by lucathia)

Ri Xiang Yan felt as though his heart was about to shatter. He shouted in grief, “Ah Ye, Ah Ye!”

He whirled around, eyes completely bloodshot and roared at Bai Lian Yue, “What did you do to Ah Ye? Didn’t you only want to see me suffer? You didn’t really kill him, did you?”

“I…”

Bai Lian Yue was even more at a loss. He had originally thought that the explosion was Ri Xiang Yan’s work. However, as soon as Ri Xiang Yan realized the explosion had happened in the dome that his little brother was in, he passed out for several seconds in fear and then cried out for his little brother heartbrokenly. He can’t possibly be faking. He can’t!

“Ah Ye …”

Chapter Nine: Leisurely Days, Anxious Heart—translated by Trespasserby (proofread by J Tao; C/E edited by lucathia)

Bai Lian Yue languidly reclined on a lounge chair. He was using the television remote in his hand to surf through channels.

“The global economy seems to be very stable. It looks like your legendary Secretary Kyle truly is highly capable. Even with our sudden disappearances, he has managed to stabilize the situation.”

Ri Xiang Yan sat in a relaxed pose in another chair, reclining against the chair’s back. There was even a small table nearby with a cup of his favorite black coffee. Aside from the chains shackling his legs, the whole scene appeared very normal, like two friends were in a living room drinking tea and gossiping while watching TV.

Ri Xiang Yan icily replied, “Of course. Do you think a secretary I chose would be subpar?”

“Mhm! Maybe it wouldn’t even matter if you never went back?”

Bai Lian Yue maliciously leered, “In any case, as long as Kyle is there, it doesn’t matter whether or not there’s a Sun Emperor!”

Ri Xiang Yan ignored his taunts. Instead, he simply picked up a book next to him and began thumbing through it.

Seeing that, the flirtatiously smiling Bai Lian Yue suddenly and violently grabbed his book, hurled it far away, then shouted, “You aren’t allowed to ignore me, Ah Yan! You know what the consequences are if you do!”

Ri Xiang Yan’s complexion immediately changed. Thinking of the consequences, he felt a pain in his heart. Ah Ye…

Original novel in Chinese by: 御我(Yu Wo)

Chapter Eight: A Wounded Beast’s Fury—translated by Trespasserby (proofread by J Tao & Minthe; C/E edited by lucathia)

The restaurant in the suburbs was decorated simply and elegantly, giving it a relaxing ambiance. However, there were no servers inside, just two groups of people on either side of a table. The atmosphere was tense as a bowstring and the situation could deteriorate at any moment.

“It’s been a long time, Sun Emperor.”

Bai Lian Yue took the initiative to speak. His voice was cloying as honey. He even threw some flirtatious looks at Ri Xiang Yan. Behind him stood four modified humans, standing ramrod straight without any trace of expression on their faces.

“It really has been a long time.”

Ri Xiang Yan smiled faintly in response, then gently called out, “Yue Ya’er.”

Hearing that, Bai Lian Yue was stunned. He couldn’t help blurting out, “Ah Yan, you…”

But as he began to speak, he noticed the Sun Emperor’s ruby red eyes. Although the Sun Emperor was smiling, those eyes weren’t those of the proud but silly Ah Yan. Instead, they were the eyes of the scheming Sun Emperor as he faced an enemy, wearing a façade.

Original novel in Chinese by: 御我 (Yu Wo)

Chapter Seven: Rescue Mission, Begin!—translated by Trespasserby (proofread by J Tao & Minthe; C/E edited by lucathia)

“Bill, it’s been three days. Why hasn’t Ah Ye been found yet?” Ri Xiang Yan expressionlessly asked, hands pushing against the surface of the desk.

Although he knew the Sun Emperor didn’t accept any excuses for failure, this was a direct question from his superior. Kyle, as the Sun Emperor’s subordinate, could only do exactly as duty required and replied, “Because Young Master Ri Xiang Ye seems to be intimately familiar with the position of every surveillance camera within the city, there has not been a single camera that has caught a glimpse of him, making it extremely difficult to track him. At the same time, he has not relied on any of his friends for help, has not used his credit card, has not withdrawn money, and has not been recorded leaving the area. Based on reports from our spies within the large alliances, they have not captured anyone matching the young master’s description.”

The color in Ri Xiang Yan’s face returned to something a little closer to normal after he heard that. He had originally been worried that the reason there hadn’t been the slightest bit of news about Ah Ye was because someone had captured him. That was the outcome he feared the most, but since it wasn’t the case, then he didn’t need to worry about Ah Ye’s safety.

Kyle continued to report, “We have already initiated a blanket search. Unless the young master has left the city or its surroundings, we should have news of him within two days.”
