Reborn as a Transcendent

Chapter 425: It's The Season Of White Again

⇐ ⇒

Swoosh! Swoosh!

A hushed silence fell over the scene. At that moment, all the adventurers and players stood frozen in shock. Even in the face of the overwhelmingly powerful soldiers and their leader, Black-hearted Princess displayed no fear or hesitation. Her aura exuded dominance and confidence.

Yunuen and Little Fairy, however, were stunned for a different reason.

‘There's something more to the connection between Princess and Alicia!' they thought, sensing an underlying mystery.

In the suite of Rosen Hotel, in the real world.

Pixie clenched her fist and gripped the bedsheets with excitement, feeling overwhelmed by the display.

"This is amazing! The Princess being so assertive is absolutely amazing! I love it!" she exclaimed.

Sachiel shared a similar expression, captivated by the scene.

"An assertive and dominant Princess. This is exactly what I love!" she said with enthusiasm.

Meanwhile, Nangong and Rakshasa trembled with anger, their eyes burning with jealousy. Both of them shared the same thought, despite being far apart.

"It should have been me! I was the first one, I came before anyone else… I'm the one who's devoted, connected, and deeply in love with the Princess!"

In an apartment within the Ability Management Department.

Mylene stood in front of her monitor, shouting in frustration.

"The spot next to my sister is mine!" she exclaimed, feeling the strong desire to intervene and remove the succubus from that position.

But then, a realization hit her.

"Oh, wait… I'm also a succubus in the game… Just kidding! No, actually, I'm a fox demon!" she chuckled to herself.

In the underground maze, within the white dimension.

Alicia's face turned bright red as Yaeger embraced her in front of everyone.

"Oh my… She actually embraced me in public. [Child of Destiny], you're too much! Ahh, I'm so embarrassed!" Alicia's heart raced with a mix of anxiety and excitement.

In their initial encounter, Alicia had been nearly naked, and Yaeger seemed unfazed by her charms. This had made Alicia doubt her own appeal and left her feeling down for a while. But now, this unexpected gesture caught her completely off-guard, filling her with a delightful mix of anxiety, shyness, and sweetness, like consuming raw sugar.

On the other side, Omega stood frozen for a moment before speaking. "Are you out of your mind? This succubus has nothing to do with you. Why bother defending her?"

He was utterly perplexed. In this situation, at least 90% of people would choose to hand over the Eldest Princess. Who wouldn't prioritize their own life? It seemed foolish to risk one's life for someone they barely knew.

Hearing Omega's words, Yaeger maintained her embrace around Alicia without a hint of concern. She was indifferent to his opinions.

The reason for Yaeger's action was simply because it felt cool to do so. She dismissed any notions of gender dynamics or societal expectations. After a brief moment of contemplation, she internally chuckled at her own thoughts.

"We're all girls here, so a little bit of skinship should be fine… Just kidding! I'm not really a girl," Yaeger mentally remarked.

With a calm demeanor, Yaeger glanced at Omega and replied, "I like it. But it's none of your business."

As soon as she finished speaking, Alicia's face turned as red as a ripe tomato.

"She… She likes it… Oh, I can't handle this!" Alicia's mind raced with a mix of embarrassment and excitement.

Yunuen and Little Fairy stood there, utterly stunned by the unfolding scene. Little Fairy's mind began to wander, “Gulp. Does she actually like girls? No wonder [Princess Alliance] is predominantly made up of girls… Wait a minute. She… She helped me out like this. Could it mean… Could it be possible?" Suddenly, she snapped back to reality, scolding herself internally, "Ah! What am I even thinking? Rachel Bai, you're not even a lesbian!"

Meanwhile, Yunuen's thoughts took a different turn. She mused, "No wonder sister Alicia treats Princess so kindly. It seems they're in a relationship! Huehuehue! How intriguing! I can't help but feel a surge of excitement!" Her mind buzzed with anticipation as she contemplated the romantic connection between Alicia and Princess.

In the real world, Nangong and Rakshasa wore expressions of pure sourness, as if they had just consumed an entire basket of lemons. Simultaneously, the word "succubus" echoed in their minds, their thoughts aligning with a mixture of resentment, envy, and disdain.

Meanwhile, in the white dimension, Yaeger remained composed but vigilant. She couldn't help but feel a sense of unease as she observed the lack of action from her adversaries.

"Why are they hesitating?" Yaeger pondered. The absence of any hostile intentions perplexed her. She couldn't shake the feeling that there was something more to their strategy.

"Do they really believe they can defeat me with these mere pawns?" Yaeger questioned, her guard raised to its highest level. She sensed that there must be a hidden ace up their sleeves, waiting to be revealed.

Yaeger's senses sharpened, and her wariness increased with each passing moment. She knew better than to underestimate her opponents.

On the opposing side, Omega and his companions were left dumbfounded, struggling to comprehend the unexpected response. Their perplexed expressions mirrored their confusion.

"Why would she say that?" they wondered, unable to fathom the appropriateness of her remark in such a life-and-death situation.

Their interpretation of her statement was different from Yunuen and the others. They saw it as a deliberate provocation, as if she were challenging them with her words: "I like being nosy, what are you going to do about it?"

The response from Yaeger only further infuriated Omega and the others. They saw her arrogance and defiance as an invitation for their wrath. "If you're so eager to meet your demise, we'll happily oblige and send you to hell!" Omega declared, raising his sword and signaling the soldiers to prepare for battle. In an instant, weapons were unsheathed as both soldiers and adventurers alike entered combat mode.

The tension in the air grew, causing Yunuen and Little Fairy to become anxious. They tightened their grip on their weapons, awaiting Yaeger's command.

"I'm afraid you all don't truly understand the meaning of death," Yaeger calmly stated, sensing no immediate threats in her surroundings. She decided it was best to eliminate these insignificant nuisances before assessing the situation further.

A lingering sense of unease made her believe there might be an unforeseen danger lurking.

"Kill them all mercilessly!" Omega's commanding voice echoed through the air. In an instant, everyone charged forward, fueled by their murderous intent. Their plan was simple: focus their attacks on Yaeger, taking down the notorious [Princess], and then swiftly eliminate the target with the bounty on her head, Alicia.

Yunuen and Little Fairy, on the other hand, remained virtually unnoticed, treated as inconsequential bystanders. From the very beginning, their presence had been overshadowed by Yaeger's prominence, and Alicia's notoriety stemmed solely from the bounty placed on her.

"Let's go. It's time to spill blood," Yaeger whispered softly to Alicia. Upon hearing those words, Alicia's heart shattered, overwhelmed by a profound sense of sorrow.

As Yaeger and Alicia prepared for the impending battle, a series of system announcements suddenly echoed through the air.

"Ding! Alicia's Favorability towards you has increased by 2,000 points."

"Ding! Alicia's Favorability towards you has increased by 3,000 points."

"Ding! Alicia's Favorability towards you has increased by 5,000 points. You are now considered intimate."

"Ding! You are the first player to establish an intimate relationship with an NPC. Rewards: All Basic Attributes +1, High-Grade Mana Recovery Potions x99, High-Grade Health Recovery Potions x99, and 10,000 Gold Coins."

Yaeger was taken aback by the unexpected announcements.

"Why did Alicia's Favorability increase by such a large amount? And why is the system response delayed, Sister System?" she questioned, feeling puzzled by the peculiar turn of events.

"I will claim your head!"

In that moment, Omega propelled himself forward like a human projectile, swinging his colossal greatsword aimed at Yaeger's head.

"Don't waste your breath." Yaeger, unfazed by his threats, remained nonchalant. She had decided to investigate the matter regarding the Sister System and the sudden increase in Alicia's favorability later. For now, her priority was to eliminate these insignificant foes.

Her weapon, Sunscorch, seemingly attuned to her intent, erupted in flames, casting a fiery glow that engulfed the surroundings.

Buzz!

Just as the clash between Omega and Yaeger was about to take place, the whole white dimension trembled violently.

A surge of powerful spatial energy rippled through the air, catching everyone's attention. Within moments, the onlookers realized that several colossal figures had descended upon the scene!
