Chapter 244: Chapter 210 Who Is She?

Watching the noise and rowdiness around her, Sonia raised her glass toward Ingrid, “Congratulations on entering the world of Mages.”

“It’s my honor,” Ingrid clinked her glass with Sonia’s, sipped, and said, “I’m actually a bit scared.”

“Scared of what?”

“Scared of exploring the Void Realm alone,” Ingrid explained. “The books all say that when a Mage first enters the Void Realm, they fall into self-torment and panic due to the unfamiliar environment, omnipresent dangers, and the lack of anyone to communicate with.”

“To stay in the sea alone, with no one to rely on, no goals to pursue, fierce intellectual creatures possibly emerging from the white fog at any moment, secrets lurking in the deep sea that cannot be explored… just thinking about it is terrifying.”

“It’s said that some Mages can’t stand the fear and prefer to stay in place rather than enter the Void Realm.”

“Don’t be misled by appearances; my experience living alone isn’t much; other than killing a brown bear that entered our yard when I was sixteen, I don’t have any notable combat achievements. I guess it will take a long time to get used to the combat rhythm in the Void Realm.” Ingrid looked at Sonia. “Speaking of which, Sonia, you seem completely unaffected, entering the Void Realm every night with great enthusiasm and always in a good mood.”

Adelle whispered a side comment, “It always feels like Ingrid is somehow exaggerating the average combat capability of a sixteen-year-old girl…”

“If it weren’t for someone seeing you come out of the Meditation Building, we would have thought you were going on a date,” Lois also joked.

“Do you have any secrets you can share?” Ingrid blinked. “Or, Lady Sonia, could you offer any advice to newcomers about to enter the Void Realm?”

Lois and Adelle perked up their ears, hoping Sonia would provide some unrecorded cheat-code that they could use.

Sonia paused for a moment, sinking into a long silence.

Ingrid and the others exchanged glances and cautiously said, “Sonia, I was just joking…”

“Ah, sorry,” Sonia swirled her glass, “I was just suddenly reminded of something else… Well, the reason I adapted to the Void Realm so quickly is because…”

Here, any lie would do or even a playful remark like ‘going to the Void Realm means I don’t have to go back to the dorm to hear Adelle snore.’ But perhaps due to the mild intoxication or an indescribable resentment deep inside, Sonia couldn’t help but tell the truth, “…because I was going on a date in the Void Realm.”

Everyone blinked.

A date in the Void Realm?

The Village Girl regretted her words the moment they were out. She wanted to explain but suddenly stood up sharply.

“What’s wrong now?”

“I,” Sonia clenched her fists, “my spirit is healed.”

“What?” Lois reacted quickly, “You mean your spirit has recovered? But it’s only been seven days—”

“What time is it now?” Sonia abruptly interrupted her.

Adelle glanced at the clock in the hall, “10:45.”

“Then there’s still time, goodbye, I’m off to the Void Realm!”

Before the three could react, Sonia had already hurriedly left the Secret Garden, so fast it made one wonder if she had used a Technique Spirit.

“Is the Void Realm really that interesting…” Adelle was astonished, “I wasn’t this excited when I went on my first date at 15.”

“What did she mean by ‘a date in the Void Realm’?” Lois looked puzzled, “A date requires at least two people; who is she dating?”

“I understand.”

“You understand again?”

Lois and Adelle looked at Ingrid, who had an epiphany.

“Sonia meant that she has a ‘date’ with the Fish Dragon, Mud Fish Dragon, Umbrella Bird Dragon; in other words, she wants to annihilate these intellectual creatures.” Ingrid spoke seriously, “What drives her to continuously advance in the Void Realm is that unyielding spirit of her sword! Truly fitting for a pride of Sword Flower University, her spirit mastery has already transcended ordinary swordsmen!”

Lois felt that Ingrid’s interpretation wasn’t right, but she had no better explanation—surely Sonia’s mention of a date couldn’t be taken literally, right?

…

Tap. Tap. Tap.

Tap tap. Tap tap. Tap tap.

Tap tap tap tap tap tap——

At first, she was walking briskly, but soon she began to jog and eventually started running along the campus path.

The night scene of the campus flew by rapidly on both sides, the Heavenly Curtain Dazzling Stars guided her path, Sonia didn’t care about her image at all and ran wildly; the cool breeze gently caressed her face, her shadow urging her to run even faster.

Sometimes, walking really is too slow.

Her soul had recovered, and surely the Observer’s soul had as well.

Because they had perished in the Void Realm in the same manner, the amount of soul lost must have been the same.

Yesterday morning, after Sonia got up and was combing her hair, she found a bottle that looked like sparkling water suddenly appeared on her desk, labeled “Pure Spirit Light Special Drink,” beneath which was a note describing how this beverage could restore the soul and accelerate the absorption of magic power.

Sonia immediately knew it was from the Observer, complaining internally about why he didn’t show his face while gulping it down.

As for whether the Observer had already drunk the potion and his soul had recovered, Sonia had never thought that way—after all, the Observer had no ability to enter the Void Realm by himself, and his soul recovery was meaningless without Sonia opening the Gate of Truth to start their Void Realm Exploration.

Moreover, she had a strong confidence: if there was something good, the Observer’s first reaction would definitely be to give it to her, not keep it for himself!

So instead, Sonia was worried that there might be only one “Pure Spirit Light Special Drink” and whether the Observer’s soul was still not fully restored. She also wondered whether the Observer had successfully escaped from his confinement, what his current situation was, whether he had a safe place to enter the Void Realm, whether he was eating well, whether he had been injured…

Why won’t he just come and see me?

He used to bother me so frequently…

Could it be because his current situation is really dangerous, to the point where he can’t even spare a moment to visit me?

But no matter what, she had to keep her promise.

Even if the Observer didn’t come, she would wait for him in the Void Realm.

Meanwhile, Felix, feeling that the atmosphere at home was still not as good as the Meditation Building, chose to drive to the Meditation Building to clock in for work tonight.

Just as she got out of the car, she saw a red-headed figure running quickly into the Meditation Building, which made the noble young master bewildered.

Wasn’t her soul damaged… She is a silver Full Wings; dying once would require at least a half-month to recover, yet it’s been less than seven days… Even if her soul had recovered, is there a need to rush into the Void Realm?

But Felix soon recalled her beating by Sonia days ago, a thought suddenly emerging—could it be that Sonia was rushing into the Void Realm to slaughter knowledge creatures?

Her nature might just catch the favor of the Lord of a Million Glories…

Maybe I should…

While Felix was contemplating whether he should recommend the Village Girl within the sect, Sonia had already entered the meditation chamber, sat down cross-legged, summoned the Wave Sword Technique Spirit, captured the Gate of Truth, and connected to the Void Realm world!

She ascended!

When Sonia opened her eyes, she felt herself standing firmly on solid ground, surrounded by a lush forest; the plants secreted drops of dazzling golden liquid dripping upwards toward the radiant sky, forming a curtain of brilliant Rain Curtain, bathing anyone fortunate enough to step onto the Time Continent in the reverse-flowing Golden Rain.

But Sonia had no interest in the unique marvels of the Time Continent; the red-haired Sword Maiden’s gaze was entirely fixed on a man in a deep red gradient trench coat not far away.

The Observer squinted slightly as he watched her, the detestable man who hadn’t sought her out for days, his lips curving slightly upward, his arms outspread, as if he wanted to embrace her.

Her lips parted slightly, yet she said nothing, but all the questions and grievances in her heart vanished like smoke.

Her body involuntarily walked towards him, reaching out a hand towards the Observer—

And grabbed his throat.

Sonia glanced at the Black and White Witch, Diya, who was as beautiful as herself, then fixed her gaze straight on Ash.

“Who is she?”
