Reborn as a Transcendent

Slight amounts of steam lingered around the room. Yaeger was wearing black lace underwear while approaching her bed.

"After reaching the Grandmaster Realm, my motor skills became even more precise." Sitting on the bed, she gently flicked her dainty fingers. All the surrounding steam instantly formed into water droplets and spun around that finger.

A Pinnacle Master might be half a step away from becoming a Grandmaster, but the difference between their strength was a world apart.

"I should be capable of killing a Pinnacle Master with a single punch by now."

Flicking her finger, those water droplets shot out like bullets. Immediately after, several black holes were left in the wall.

"The average Grandmaster won't win against me either. By now, in real life, only a select few people can pose a threat to me."

Yaeger retracted her gaze and clenched her fist. "Now, the biggest problem I'm facing is that I don't have an absolutely safe hideout to stay in."

She needed a shelter where she could concentrate on playing games without any worries.

"I hope what happened tonight can mislead Vera and delay her for two more days. So I can focus on conquering the maze."

Yaeger wasn't worried about the Hitmen that were hunting her at all. She was only vigilant about Vera. Although the [E-Fairy] might be physically weak, her abilities in gathering information were a cut above the rest.

It was a big problem.

"I don't want anyone coming to my doorstep."

Lying down slowly, Yaeger stared at the ceiling and whispered.

In Glory Entertainment Center, she had aggravated everyone around and also left behind some clues for Vera.

"Leroy Wang and Scarry Nan will most likely stay silent about my presence in that place. However, there were so many witnesses back there. The truth will be revealed eventually. Someone will definitely snitch on me. When that happens, I'm sure Vera will investigate it."

Based on her speculation, Vera would start collecting information about her the moment she arrived in Roc City.

"I'm forced to be passive." Yaeger smiled bitterly.

She had thought about asking Mylene to pay attention to the immigration records.

However, upon realizing that they would probably cross the border illegally, she realized that this would be nothing but a waste of time.

Furthermore, even if the Hitmen arrived using legitimate methods, it would be next to impossible to find any clues about them since Vera would intervene as a hacker.

"Everything will work out in the end."

After that, Yaeger looked at the time. It was 10:45.

Time to get into the game.

White light flashed. Yaeger appeared in the familiar guest room. Layna and Yunuen were still refining medicine inside the workshop. Yaeger didn't disturb them.

Leaving the Item Shop, she went to the commoners' district.

The moment she entered an alley, the petite maid, Nectar, emerged.

She traveled at high speeds with Yaeger behind her. Soon enough, they entered the depths of the district.

A seemingly ancient 7-storied building was in front of them.

The buildings in Jade City were mostly around 2 to 3 floors high. A 7-floor building was a rare sight.

"You're here." The moment they reached the rooftop, Alicia's alluring voice was instantly heard.

Opening the door, there was a large balcony outside. It seemed a little battered.

Alicia stood in place with a silver-gray magical formation on the floor.

A silver sphere was placed in the middle of that formation. It glittered under the moonlight.

That was the key to opening the underground maze.

"Ready to get started?" Yaeger walked over and stood outside the magical formation.

"Almost there." Alicia raised her head and looked at the sky, where a silver moon hung above.

Hearing that, Yaeger remained silent and waited for that moment to arrive along with Alicia.

About 10 minutes later, Alicia suddenly sharpened her gaze and instantly reached out with her right hand.

The next moment, Yaeger saw red liquid dripping down her middle finger.

It was blood!

Once that drop of blood landed on the silver sphere, silver light erupted.

Clack clack clack!

The sphere shook after fully absorbing that drop of blood and let out a strange noise.

Crack!

The final sound was incredibly crisp.

"This is…" In Yaeger's eyes, that silver sphere seemed to have miraculously split into many pieces. They instantly reassembled into something similar to a plate in mid-air.

At the same time, the magical formation made a buzzing noise and glowed in silver light.

"Open." Within the magical formation, Alicia retracted her hand and spoke calmly.

The moment she finished speaking. Yaeger could feel slight Spatial Attribute magic pouring out of the magical formation.

Hum!

The center of the magical plate spun rapidly and created a weird vibration.

15 seconds later, that vibration and Spatial Attribute magic dwindled. The formation's silver light dissipated as well.

The plate-like object started making crackling noises again. It disassembled in mid-air and was reassembled into a silver sphere.

"It's done?" Yaeger asked.

She thought opening the underground maze would require a whole load of mystical chanting and offering some tributes like sacrificing a lamb.

However, Alicia finished everything using a single drop of blood.

The process was quick and pleasant.

"Yes." Alicia nodded with a pleasant expression.

The maze was opened. Now, they only had to wait for the harmful gasses to dissipate before they could enter.

‘Looks like specific Bloodlines are needed to open the underground maze. No wonder the key was lost for so long and nobody could figure it out.' Yaeger thought.

At this moment, Alicia suddenly emanated horrifying killing intent.

Only to see her staring daggers towards the inner district.

Noticing her weird demeanor, Yaeger quickly looked over.

Far away, from the Royal Palace, a silver beam of light soared into the sky.

“What's going on?” Looking at that silver pillar, Yaeger felt an instant bad premonition in her heart.

"Looks like Richard prepared something outside of the maze beforehand. Once someone opens the maze, it gets triggered." Alicia clenched her fists tightly. With a grim expression, the words she spoke were dripping with malice.

Yaeger realized that she didn't call Richard her brother just now. It seemed like at this very moment, their relationship was completely ruined and had passed the point of no return.

"So, does that mean our plan has been compromised?" Yaeger asked solemnly.

“You could say that. I've been careless. In retrospect, Richard obviously knows something inside the maze can remove the curse on me!"

Alicia's body trembled while grim killing intent emanated.

She had planned for all potential scenarios to happen, but not what Richard did here.

"The key to the maze has been lost for so many years. No ordinary person won't ever pay attention to this. I'm afraid he's been plotting against you for a long time." Yaeger said.

"Is he just so scared that I might recover my strength?" Alicia sighed lightly.

"One must get rid of all potential threats. You're the only person in this Empire who could pose a threat to him. It would be weird if he isn't scheming against you."

Yaeger also heaved a sigh. Now, Richard knew that the maze had opened. It would be impossible for them to enter as long as he had sent a lot of manpower to guard its surroundings.

"Fortunately, he isn't daring enough to go against our ancestral teachings and close the maze forcefully."

Alicia ruffled her beautiful hair. Her expression was no longer as grim as before.

“We still have a chance.”

Yaeger looked at her. She was about to say something but the system notification rang at that moment.

"Ding!"
