Chapter 142 Sophia's Astonishment, The Monster King's Threat
Alister had the plan to dominate the Transcendent World so he didn't want the Transcendent World to be destroyed by the monsters from the otherworld.
Furthermore, Sophia might be his sworn enemy but she was currently fighting for the sake of this world as well as its inhabitants.
On normal occasions where he didn't have to scheme, Alister didn't mind saving a life or two especially when he didn't have to hide his power now.
Unlike before, he was at risk of being discovered by the Transcendent Association. However, now that he was already registered as a transcendent in the Transcendent Association, he didn't have to worry about exposing his power.
'Anyway, this doesn't risk my life, and since I have sufficient power to save these weaklings in this world, why not? I'll be the emperor of this world anyways so I can just treat it as saving my future subjects.'
With that thought in mind, Alister flew towards the city where the dimensional gate had descended.
He wanted to use his Dimensional Mirror for teleportation but his Dimensional Mirror wasn't suited for teleportation. Or more like, his Dimensional Mirror could only grant him partial manipulation to the space element.
The reason why he had to send Avatar 1 to place space coordinates throughout the Star Continent was due to the limit of the Dimensional Mirror's teleportation ability. The Dimensional Mirror could only teleport to places that were reflected by it.
Of course, short-range teleportation was still possible even if the Dimensional Mirror hadn't reflected that location. But for longer-range teleportation, the Dimensional Mirror must have that location reflected by it.
Since he hadn't saved the location of that city where the dimensional gate had descended, Alister could only travel personally there. But with his speed, it didn't take long for him to arrive at the location of the dimensional gate.
As Alister had expected, Sophia was having difficulty even defending herself from the attacks of the Monster King.
After all, Sophia's foundation was very unstable. She did have the power of a Transcendent King, but that was only raw power. She couldn't fully control the power of a Transcendent King.
To be more specific, Sophia could only control the power above the 9th-level transcendent but below the Transcendent King.
It was like a water dispenser that had lots of volume of water but the water that could be drawn out from the faucet was lower than usual since the faucet was partially blocked.
Sophia could only release 40% of a Transcendent King's power despite herself being a genuine Transcendent King.
"Tsk! Skill issue. What a major skill issue!"
Alister couldn't help but ridicule after seeing Sophia attack the Monster King like a damn noob.
Sophia's current situation was a noob like her was borrowing a pro's account. Since the pro was at a high level that her pea-sized brain and trash control couldn't handle, she suck at using that account and got trashed by the enemies at the same level as that pro.
Despite being a Transcendent King, Sophia couldn't even defeat the Monster King.
When Alister ridiculed Sophia, Sophia and the Monster King momentarily stopped their battle as they looked at Alister in vigilance.
After all, they were surprised to realize that they hadn't perceived Alister's presence when he had appeared before which meant that they were too weak to perceive Alister's presence!
However, when Sophia recognized Alister's appearance, she heaved a sigh of relief. After all, it was impossible for Sophia to not have an impression of Alister when Alister was the prince charming in her school before.
Even if she wasn't interested in the prince charming in her school, she at least had an impression of Hugh and Alister who were both the prince charming in the school.
But after recognizing Alister, Sophia was then confused. As for why, it was all due to Alister's reputation as the trashiest human in history not being cleared yet.
Alister becoming a Transcendent King had indeed been publicized. However, Sophia was too focused on fighting monsters and defending the world from the otherworld invasion. She didn't have the time nor interest to check up on the recent news on the Transcendent's exclusive website.
A Transcendent King was considered an influential powerhouse so just the birth of one would be announced on the Transcendent's exclusive website. They would even be introduced in the media and such which Alister had declined since he didn't have any interest in gaining fame especially when he was weak before.
Since Sophia didn't know about Alister's current power, she still thought that Alister was the same trash human as he was before and that was why she was surprised that she couldn't even detect Alister's presence!
As for Alister's ridicule towards her, she knew that it wasn't the time for her to complain about it. After all, not only was what Alister had ridiculed about was true since she was also aware of her unstable foundation, but the Monster King was still alive so the least she wanted was a conflict with a fellow human.
The Monster King was a huge wolf with gray fur. Its huge body was the size of a two-story building and it was even accompanied by its wolf pack whose power level was either at 8th-level or 9th-level.
When compared to the tentacle monster that had invaded the supermarket before, the Monster King was too huge of a threat!
The tentacle monster from before was only at 7th-level yet even the weakest wolf in the Monster King's wolf pack was at 8th-level.
"A human emperor?"
The Monster King exclaimed in surprise as it looked at Alister with a scrutinizing gaze.
After a monster reaches the power at king-level and above, they would not only have wisdom and intelligence but also the ability to speak in human language or any other language.
Of course, the lack of vocal cords to perform human speech had resulted in most monsters using mana waves to speak out the words that they wanted to convey.
But even after the Monster King estimated Alister's power to be at Transcendent Emperor, it didn't show any fear but instead, it threatened Alister, "You human emperor should not interfere with my business. The Monster Saint had already invested all of his resources to kill this human girl."
"Leave now and I can act as if you never appeared here."
