Chapter 642: [Death of Love] Recruitment, Vera Taking Action

Leave a comment ⇐ PreviousNext ⇒
Yaeger could practically feel the players' shock and excitement radiating through the forums.
"Did I just become the new world boss?" She sighed in exasperation as she scrolled past a flood of trending posts, all focused on hunting her down.
Then again, on second thought, it all made sense.
After all, the bounty on her head rivaled the rewards for landing first blood on a world boss. The only difference was that the latter came with a one-time use of the coveted [Saint Demon Roulette].
"The thing is… I’m way harder to take down than any world boss." Yaeger smirked and tapped on one of the trending posts.
Let’s skip the fluff and get straight to business.
As we all know, the universally hated and reviled demoness, the Black-hearted Princess, is now a fugitive of the Jade Empire.
Relieving!
Utterly satisfying!
That’s right—I feel amazing! Utterly euphoric!
As the saying goes: you reap what you sow!
Justice may take its time, but it never fails to arrive! And now… that time has finally come!
The Black-hearted Princess is as good as dead!
Soon, the skies above Jade City will be clear of her blight, and the glory of the Empire shall be restored to its rightful owners—us!
But back to the main point, my friends—what a blessing it is that the Empire has officially placed a bounty on the Black-hearted Princess!
Now, why am I calling it a blessing?
Well, that’s because… This quest is practically tailor-made to encourage us to hunt her down!
Just take a look at this madness!
She’s required to stay online for no less than fourteen hours a day. In other words, the Black-hearted Princess can’t simply hide offline and wait it out.
What’s more, if she’s killed, she must log back in within an hour—or start losing her gear! Now that… is just glorious!
And we all know how ridiculously stacked her gear is, don’t we? She’s loaded with Epic-grade gear that dominates the Equipment Rankings—and let’s not forget that absurdly overpowered Artifact she has.
Anything you manage to loot from her could bring you generational wealth!
And if—just if—you manage to grind her down until she loses all her levels and drag her back to Jade City for the quest hand-in? That’d be legendary!
Double the loot, double the joy!
Of course, the chances of pulling that off are pretty slim. After all, every major guild on the Linhnan server is gunning for her—it’s nearly impossible for solo players to get a piece of the action.
But hey, as long as we’re breathing, we’ve got dreams, right?
Even if the odds are paper-thin, there’s always a chance to turn a dream into reality!
So I strongly recommend all freelance players here to join a large guild—preferably one with real firepower and reach.
Like, for example, the greatest guild in the Linhnan server—one of the top dogs in Cathay:

Yaeger squinted at the post, her expression twitching slightly at the overwhelming number of exclamation marks. It came across like an advertisement—and a rather terrible one, at that.
As she skimmed the comment section, it was clear she wasn’t the only one who thought so.
Yaeger closed the forum window, expressionless.
"Taurus and S.K.Y… Relentless, as always."
Right now, only someone like Richard posed a real threat to her in the Jade Empire. The players didn’t worry her in the slightest. Let them come—she’d cut them all down.
The elegant Beast Carriage sped forward, the scenery blurring around her. Yaeger gazed ahead, calm and unbothered. To her, this bounty quest was nothing more than background noise.
Meanwhile, deep in the sewers…
"I finally made it out…" Rosalina’s already pale face turned even whiter. "Master is incredible… That tunnel was packed with traps, and she only triggered one! And even that was because her spatial magic shifted the distances… As expected of Master. You're amazing. I love you so much!"
Just as she finished, a deep rumble echoed behind her. The secret passage sealed shut rapidly, leaving only fresh scratch marks etched into the stone wall.
"It’s time to head back." Glancing at the now-closed wall, Rosalina turned and strode away on long, graceful legs.
With Yaeger no longer around to purify the air, the sewer’s foul stench became unbearable.
‘It’s so smelly! I’m going to pass out… Wait—Master held me for a long time. Her scent must still be on my robes!' Without hesitation, Rosalina peeled off her white robes and buried her face into the spot Yaeger had touched.
Sure enough, a faint, clean scent lingered there.
‘Ah… Master’s scent~'
Blushing furiously, she took a deep breath. Her thoughts melted away as her body trembled in bliss. For a moment, she completely forgot she was still in the sewer.
Back in the real world, inside a sleek hotel suite… Vera One’s fingers flew across the keyboard, data flashing rapidly across her screen.
