Reborn as a Transcendent

Chapter 575: Hey Hey Hey, Everyone Say Hey!

The sun shone brightly, and a gentle breeze blew through the air. A picturesque scene unfolded on the rooftops. Kastina stayed in Yaeger's embrace, feeling intense joy and anticipation. Yet, Yaeger stayed motionless for a long while.

Time crept by. The two remained in a stalemate, like statues melded into one. Kastina waited, but Yaeger did nothing more. She grew instantly displeased.

"How long do you plan to keep hugging me?"

"Oh, sorry." Yaeger quickly let go and stepped back.

She felt an immediate sense of relief. Hugging someone in such hot weather wasn't exactly comfortable.

Kastina straightened up and rolled her eyes. She had practically offered herself, and this fool did nothing. It was infuriating!

"I have something else to do. See you later," Yaeger said with a wave and a smile.

Before Kastina could respond, Yaeger flew off the rooftop and disappeared.

"I'm not done speaking yet!" Kastina stomped her feet in frustration as Yaeger vanished. But she quickly calmed down and smiled pleasantly.

‘The lowly slave and me, in love… love…' Her pretty face blushed deeply, as if steam was rising from her head.

Meanwhile, Yaeger sped through the alleyways. Soon, she arrived at Behn's Equipment Shop.

The slightly tipsy Behn, leaning against the wall, noticed her and instantly dropped his alcohol bottle with a clink. His face turned pale, and he screamed internally. ‘Why is she here again?'

To him, this incredibly dazzling beauty was nothing but a terrifying beast.

"Behn, alcohol isn't good for you. It's bad for your health," Yaeger said in a caring tone as she walked into the shop.

"You… why are you here again?" Behn panicked.

"Nothing much. I'm just worried you'll harm yourself with all this drinking, so I have some tasks for you." Yaeger clasped her hands behind her back and smiled pleasantly.

Her beautiful, mesmerizing smile looked like a demon's snarl to Behn. No, she was the quintessential demon!

"I… I'm very busy!"

"Oh, really? What are you busy with?" Yaeger asked, stretching out her right hand to grab him firmly.

Behn stood up decisively and stared at her with deep conviction. "However, I believe your affairs take priority over everything else, Your Highness. Nothing else matters!"

"Excellent. I've gathered all the materials. Forge my sword now." As she spoke, Yaeger retrieved all the strengthening materials for [Sunscorch] from her ring.

"So quickly?" Behn exclaimed, staring at the materials on the ground in astonishment.

"Don't waste time. Get to work; I'm in a hurry," Yaeger said calmly.

"Even so, it takes time to strengthen it," Behn replied, his tone mournful.

"Just do it as quickly as possible."

"Alright then," he conceded, knowing it was futile to argue with her. He obediently began his work.

In the backyard, the [Omni-Furnace] roared to life. Behn fed [Sunscorch] and the strengthening materials into the furnace. The long, arduous refining process commenced.

Meanwhile, S.K.Y. and Taurus returned to the Adventurer's Guild. Taurus was in high spirits, wearing a permanent radiant smile. Many high-level players surrounded him, eager to join his ranks.

Clearly, the auction house advertisement had been highly effective. These players valued Taurus' wealth far more than a salary of 10,000 and minimal real-life benefits. Working for a generous Guild Master with deep pockets promised significant benefits.

Moreover, rumors were circulating that the [Death of Love] Guild was preparing to act against the Black-hearted Princess. She was known as a walking treasure trove. Killing her promised loot that would keep them well-fed for a long time. Significant money and benefits were at stake.

This was why they chose to follow Taurus.

Seeing these elite players, who were once distant, now sucking up to him made Taurus ecstatic. ‘I feel on top of the world right now!'

Meanwhile, S.K.Y. stood expressionless beside him, like an emotionless robot. However, a massive flame had ignited in his heart. It was a flame of envy. He envied everything.

‘I was born into a bad background. If only I had been born into an affluent family…' As he pondered this, his eyes flashed red again.

Immediately, his consciousness blanked out for a moment.

"King, coronation…" S.K.Y. murmured absent-mindedly. His voice was too quiet amidst the chatter, so no one heard him.

"What just happened to me?" Returning to his senses, S.K.Y. could vaguely sense changes in his body but couldn't identify the cause.

"S.K.Y., we'll be able to activate our plans soon enough!" Taurus said excitedly.

"Yes, soon we'll have our revenge!" S.K.Y. was more focused on their plan to hunt down the Black-hearted Princess than on the subtle changes in his body. He was determined to kill that vicious woman in the most gruesome ways!

In real life, at an auction house in America, a sports car roared in the distance and sped towards the venue, its roaring engine breaking the night's silence. The tires screeched as the car braked. The black sports car skidded to a stop outside the venue, filling the air with white smoke as it drifted.

The auction had just concluded, and many attendees were exiting the venue. Luxury sedans lined the surroundings, and fierce-looking bodyguards emerged, creating an oppressive atmosphere.

It was evident that this was no ordinary auction.

A man dressed as a bodyguard stepped out of the black sports car. He stood straight as a javelin, staring ahead, waiting for his boss.

There weren't many people at the venue's entrance. Across the entrance, top figures from various industries were seen chatting and laughing. This exclusive auction was only for top leaders, offering rare and precious items. It was an annual gathering and recreation event for those involved.

Some attendees were smiling with satisfaction, having made significant acquisitions. Although many were smiling, their eyes lacked true joy. Clearly, there were losers tonight.

After a while, a middle-aged man in an Oriental costume emerged from the venue. He had a square face, ordinary appearance, white hair, and no facial hair. He was Lucky Hong, leader of the Small Sword Group.

The bodyguard from the black sports car quickly ran over when he saw him.

"Let's go," Lucky said, waving his hand before the bodyguard could speak.

"Yes!"

They got into the black sports car, and the bodyguard sped off immediately. It was as if they were in a hurry to reincarnate.

"Hehehe, I finally got it," Lucky laughed out loud inside the car, revealing a beautiful small box on his opened right palm. It contained something invaluable to him.

"Ronald Tian and the so-called [Princess], soon I'll be in Cathay to claim your pathetic lives!"
