With a resounding bang, the colossal body of the double-headed wolf crashed down, yet the pristine floor of the white dimension remained unscathed. Witnessing this sudden attack, Yunuen and the others grew nervous, fearing that Yaeger might have failed to dodge. However, the chances of such a thing happening were incredibly slim, almost negligible.

The right head of the double-headed wolf's pupils shrank as it caught sight of a blinding red light. "Puppy, get down and don't move," Yaeger commanded. In response, [Sunscorch] unleashed a pillar of flame that transformed into a giant blade, slamming heavily into the wolf's body from above.

"Arf arf arf!" The wolf cried out in pain as its back and abdomen were instantly splattered with blood. The intense agony overwhelmed its senses, causing it to howl uncontrollably.

"Princess is truly powerful. She is invincible!" Yunuen exclaimed excitedly. If she weren't tasked with protecting Alicia, she would have become a devoted fangirl, cheering Yaeger on with all her heart.

"Yes, she's incredible," Little Fairy chimed in, her eyes shimmering with admiration. Alicia blushed slightly, captivated by Yaeger's prowess. She knew she was capable of executing similar maneuvers, but there was something particularly brilliant and attractive when it was done by her [Child of Destiny].

"Ah, be careful, Princess!" Yunuen suddenly shouted, her attention drawn to the black scorpion. Its tail swung, unleashing a venomous stinger that shimmered with green light, targeting Yaeger's defenseless body.

True to their nature as an ambush predator, the black scorpion prepared to strike and render any ordinary person defenseless, ready to claim a quick kill. But Yaeger was far from ordinary. She had already anticipated the scorpion's attack and reacted swiftly. With her external aura, she formed a barrier to intercept the stinger, while a tentacle coalesced to grab hold of it.

In a split second, Yaeger utilized her momentum to somersault and land on the scorpion's tail, turning the tables on her attacker. Flames ignited and flickered intensely as she descended, rapidly swinging [Sunscorch]. The scorpion's tail was instantly wounded, causing green blood to spray in all directions.

Meanwhile, the double-headed wolf endured the searing pain and fixed its bloodshot eyes on Yaeger. It unleashed intense flames from both mouths, simultaneously targeting the black scorpion. In the face of this dual threat, the scorpion swiftly jumped away, successfully evading Yaeger's attack and the wolf's flames.

A resounding bang reverberated through the air as Yaeger was mercilessly engulfed by the intense flames, the scene consumed by a sea of red light. Anyone directly struck by such terrifying flames would suffer severe, if not fatal, injuries. The black scorpion and double-headed wolf watched expectantly, waiting for the flames to dissipate.

Yet, when the fiery inferno subsided, there was nothing there. Yaeger had vanished, leaving behind a perplexed and stunned black scorpion and double-headed wolf.

The confusion and surprise were evident in the double-headed wolf's eyes. It wondered if Yaeger had been vaporized by its own powerful flame attack. Meanwhile, the black scorpion also questioned the extent of its own destructive power.

In that moment of uncertainty, a magnificent figure materialized before them. Descending from above with two swords in hand, the figure swiftly struck at the wolf. It was an attempt to alert the wolf to the ongoing attack, but the figure's speed was simply too overwhelming for the wolf to react in time.

Sword energy flashed, and flames cascaded like a waterfall, as if descending from the heavens themselves. It was a retaliatory strike against the wolf. Finally, the wolf realized the imminent danger, but it was too late to respond. The attack was blisteringly fast.

With a single swipe, a gaping wound appeared on the wolf's left paw. Then, flames erupted, causing its head to explode in a burst of fiery destruction. A pained howl escaped from the remaining head.

"I told you to get down, but you just wouldn't listen," Yaeger casually remarked as the flames subsided. She didn't spare a second glance at the wounded wolf, as if it held no significance to her.

In truth, after exchanging several blows, Yaeger had already assessed the capabilities of the wolf and the scorpion. They were noticeably weaker compared to the Swift Black Dragon, by at least a third.

As Yaeger pondered the situation, she realized that the difference in bloodlines played a significant role in the vast contrast between the Swift Black Dragon and the current adversaries. While they may share the same level, the Dragon's powerful bloodline granted it superior strength compared to wolves and scorpions.

"It feels like I'm fighting a regular mob after facing an elite one. It's too easy," Yaeger remarked calmly, reflecting on the noticeable discrepancy in difficulty.

Perhaps the wolf and scorpion understood her words, as their injured body brimmed with anger. Terrifying auras surged from their beings, fueling their determination.

Meanwhile, Alicia and the rest remained completely absorbed in the unfolding battle. They didn't dare blink, afraid they might miss a single moment of the exhilarating spectacle. The speed of the fight was so astonishing that they struggled to comprehend how Yaeger effortlessly evaded the attacks.

Fortunately, they knew about Yaeger's teleportation abilities, allowing them to piece together the puzzle and understand the seamless dodges she executed in the heat of battle.

In real life, as Nangong watched the breathtaking display of Yaeger's fighting skills, her excitement reached its peak. "My Princess is incredibly cool in battle!"

Pixie, standing beside her, nibbled on her lip deep in thought. She pondered the situation, musing over Yaeger's remarkable growth since her time in the arena. The astonishing rate of improvement sparked curiosity within Pixie, prompting her to question whether a human could achieve such rapid progress. Could it be attributed to the elusive concept of Bloodline? The notion intrigued her, planting the seed of a personal test in her mind.

Her eyes gleamed with excitement as she connected the dots. The realization struck her that Yaeger's growth in real life mirrored her astonishing development in game. However, she quickly dismissed the idea as absurd, shaking her head to clear her thoughts.

"Princess is truly impressive," Sachiel gushed, her cheeks tinted pink as hearts filled her eyes. She was completely captivated by Yaeger's prowess, seemingly beyond rescue from her adoration.

Rakshasa shared a similar sentiment, equally enthralled by the spectacle unfolding before them.

Meanwhile, Mylene appeared outwardly composed, but her inner emotions betrayed her calm facade. "Ah, sister is unbelievably cool. I'm going to die!" she exclaimed, unable to contain her excitement.

Within the white dimension of the game, Yaeger found herself locked in a fierce battle against two powerful Magic Beasts. Meanwhile, Omega faced the relentless onslaught of the mantis, its blade-limbs striking with overwhelming force. Despite Omega's impressive strength, it was clear that he could only hold his ground for a limited time against this Jade-ranked Magic Beast. If the fight dragged on, he would surely meet his demise.

"Hold it back! Attack from all directions!" Omega quickly issued orders to his squadmates, hoping to gain an advantage. However, the mantis was not about to give them any respite. Its blade-limbs glowed red as its Attack Speed increased dramatically, launching a relentless barrage of brutal strikes.

Like a ferocious storm, a hundred strikes rained down upon the soldiers in a mere second. At first, they managed to withstand the onslaught, but after a few moments, blood sprayed through the air and anguished screams echoed throughout the battlefield. Five black-armored soldiers fell, their lives extinguished in an instant. Only Omega remained, his heart filled with a desperate resolve.

Amidst the chaos, Omega's eyes caught sight of Yaeger, locked in her own intense battle. A mixture of shock and resentment welled up within him, fueling a plan to divert the impending disaster elsewhere.
