Online Game: I Started with Max Charisma and Caught the Goddess's Eye Chapter 214: Is It Pretty? If I Die, You Will Die Too! The P

"Achoo!" Luca rubbed his nose, staring at Sophia, who stood atop the iceberg like a goddess. He said, "Senior, I think we should stop for today. I'm catching a cold from the freezing weather."

"Swoosh!" A sharp ice blade answered him.

Luca shifted slightly, and the blade grazed his nose, slicing through the air before plunging into the sea behind him, sending up a spray of water. Before the water could even settle, it froze into a delicate ice flower.

Just as Luca was about to turn around, a flash of blue light darted across the ice surface, and Sophia was already in front of him.

Her eyes glimred like water, her ice-blue hair flowing in the wind, sparkling with a faint glow under the sunlight.

At the sa ti, the ice sword in her hand was brought down forcefully toward his head, gathering frost and radiating imnse power.

Luca sighed inwardly, and suddenly, silver light flashed at his feet. In an instant, he disappeared, reappearing behind her. Sophia furrowed her brow, reacting swiftly. She twisted her wrist, reversing her grip on the sword and thrusting it toward Luca's abdon.

But she struck only empty air.

Realizing sothing was wrong, she tried to pull back, but suddenly felt a sharp pain at the back of her neck. Her vision went black.

"I told you to finish quickly. Why didn't you listen?" Luca muttered to himself as he reached out to catch her waist, preventing her from falling to the ground. He then skillfully lifted the unconscious senior in his arms.

Silver light flashed again beneath his feet, and in the blink of an eye, they disappeared from the sea and reappeared in the hallway of the ship—right where they had left earlier.

"Luca, Sir, Miss Sophia... what happened to her?" Nicholas happened to be passing by and, seeing their condition, was imdiately surprised, thinking they had encountered so accident.

"She's fine. She just fainted," Luca casually explained before carrying Sophia back to her room. The two rooms were next to each other, so he wasn't worried about finding it.

Entering the room and turning on the lights, Luca placed Sophia on the bed and covered her with a blanket. After a quick glance, he noticed her complexion was a little pale, likely from overexertion.

Her naturally translucent skin appeared even more crystalline under the light, almost as if she were made of glass. A strand of hair clung to her face, and her brow was slightly furrowed, her expression showing a hint of fatigue. The usual coldness in her eyes was gone, replaced with a trace of warmth. For the first ti, she looked sowhat vulnerable.

He reached out and gently brushed the strand of hair from her face. As he did so, his gaze involuntarily shifted.

His eyes fell on the gentle curve of her chest, hidden beneath the covers.

It wasn't large, but it was firm and perky, so white it seed to glow.

He'd never really noticed it before…

"Is it pretty?" A calm voice suddenly sounded in his ear. Luca instinctively nodded.

When he ca to his senses, he realized that Sophia had sohow woken up without him noticing.

Her cold, beautiful eyes were now staring straight at him.

"Yes, it's pretty," Luca blinked, then quickly pulled the blanket higher up to cover her chest, giving her an unapologetically cheeky smile. "Senior, you should rest early."

As he turned and fled, he caught a glimpse of Sophia's expression, her lips pursed and her gaze complicated.

"Do you like this kid?" A flash of purple light appeared, and a figure identical to Sophia materialized in the room. The only difference was that her hair was purple, and the aura surrounding her was completely different, far darker and more sinister.

"Mm." Sophia responded calmly, without hesitation or embarrassnt. She simply admitted it.

"What's so special about him? He looks decent, but without divine talent, he probably can't even compare to the lowest-level gods."

Zenobia sat on the bed, her tone full of teasing.

Sophia thought for a mont and then asked, sowhat puzzled, "Is there necessarily a connection between the two?"

Zenobia didn't reply imdiately. She stared at Sophia for a while before slowly saying, "Did you tell him about my desire for the Celestial Pearl?"

Sophia fell silent.

"Idiot." Another cold voice rang out in the room.

A flash of black light, and a woman dressed in a black gown appeared. She looked just like Sophia, but with an even colder deanor—one that radiated a deep, intrinsic indifference.

The mont Sophia saw her, her eyes flickered. She said, "You're not dead?"

This woman was none other than Pandora, the Desire Demon from the Abyssal Demon Realm, who had been killed by Luca. She had died at his hands, but to Sophia's surprise, she was now back in this world.

Pandora sneered and said, "Do you really think so little of the power of 'Desire'? As long as the Abyssal Demon Realm's core remains intact, I will be immortal!"

Zenobia also curled her lips into a mocking smile, her eyes fixed on Pandora. She said, "If I can't obtain the Celestial Pearl, you think you'll have the freedom to live out your life with your little lover? Do you really believe that?"

"You've forgotten, haven't you? You're nothing more than a divine soul I left behind all those years ago. When the Ancient Gods erge from the Abyssal Realm, I will die, Pandora will die, and you will die as well."

"We are one and the sa. Help , and you will have everything you desire. Help him, and what will you gain?"

"Think carefully about the suffering and hardships we've endured, the tornt the gods and the Ancient Gods inflicted upon us."

"Do you really want to go through that again, Frost Cassiel?"

Sophia frowned slightly. "That god died 100,000 years ago."

"Stubborn fool!" Pandora scoffed, and her figure disappeared instantly, seemingly too tired to continue the conversation.

Zenobia's gaze lingered on her for a mont longer before she said coldly, "I hope you really think about it. Otherwise, don't bla for erasing your consciousness and making you vanish from this world forever."

The next mont, Zenobia vanished as well, leaving the room silent once again, as if the two won had never been there at all. Everything felt like a re illusion.

Sophia stared out the window at the vast sea, lost in thought for a long ti. Finally, she exhaled slowly and murmured, "Annoying."

...

anwhile, in the real world…

Luca had just returned to his room when a sharp, urgent alarm sounded in his ears.

His heart skipped a beat, and he thought sothing might have gone wrong in the real world.

However, when he stepped out, he discovered that it was only Susie, excitedly tapping on his gaming pod.

"Luca, Luca, co quickly!" Her face was flushed with excitent, her eyes sparkling as she eagerly beckoned him.

"What are you looking at...?" Luca rubbed his brow, and only then did he notice the silver-white hamster in Susie's hands. Its big, watery purple eyes were staring at him unblinkingly, and perched on its head was a tiny crown.

"Holy crap! A monster!" Luca jumped, imdiately sitting up in his gaming pod. He almost hurled a Divine Fla at it. The little hamster, startled, quickly burrowed into Susie's already modest chest, leaving only its fluffy little backside exposed.

"Eagle mouse?" Luca stared at the hamster's rear for a mont before finally recognizing it. This was the sa Elite eagle mouse he had seen before.

It had appeared in the real world?!

"Look, look! Doesn't it look just like the little white one in the ga? Even the crown is exactly the sa!" Susie was overjoyed, eager to pull the eagle mouse out of her chest so Luca could get a better look.

However, the little creature seed to be traumatized and refused to co out, burying its head deeper into Susie's chest.

Luca's lips twitched. He wanted to say, That's your pet from the ga. But the kind of monster aura it emitted left no room for mistake.

However, he figured he'd end up explaining for ages, so he simply asked, "Where did you find this eagle mouse?"

Susie was still teasing the little creature, gently prodding it. "It was right by my bed. When I woke up from the ga, I found it asleep on . It scared the crap out of at first."

Luca's eyes widened slightly. "Did you co across an Abyssal Node? You know, one of those rifts with a lot of monsters?"

Susie paused for a mont, then replied, "Actually, I did. Didn't you ask to et you in Seaway City? On the carriage ride, I passed through a town that was overrun by monsters. I overheard so nearby players and PNC talking about a node appearing there. How did you know?"

"That's it then. This is the monster from your ga." Luca said, understanding now, before explaining further: "You must have gained the abilities from the ga as well. Players who get close to an Abyssal Node often receive this kind of feedback."

"Ga feedback?" Sophia blinked, surprised. She had heard Luca ntion this kind of feedback before, but she never expected it to happen to her.

Luca grabbed the silver-white eagle mouse by the tail, pulling the overly curious and cowardly little creature out of Susie's chest. The eagle mouse imdiately started squeaking frantically. "Stop squeaking. If you don't, I'll cook you," Luca threatened.

The eagle mouse imdiately fell silent.

"How did you get out of there?" Luca wondered aloud. These summoned creatures seed a bit different from the typical player feedback. He could feel it.

This eagle mouse's power was at least Diamond-level, and it was probably even stronger than him at the mont. That ant this eagle mouse had sohow brought its full in-ga power into the real world, thanks to Susie's summoning abilities!

This eagle mouse's power was at least Diamond-level, and it was probably even stronger than him at the mont. That ant this eagle mouse had sohow brought its full in-ga power into the real world, thanks to Susie's summoning abilities!

Now that was interesting. Even with Luca's current strength, he was still only mid-tier in the real world. Quagmire and the others were even weaker.

But this eagle mouse? It had brought its full strength with it. Luca had never encountered anything like this, even with his two lifetis of experience.

A thought flashed in his mind. If this was possible, maybe his own monster from the ga could do the sa. And not just any monster—he had a Transcendent-level King-class monster!

If he could sohow bring Jörmungandr, the stupid serpent, into the real world... wouldn't he be invincible in the early stages of the ga's arrival?

"Squeak squeak!!!" The white eagle mouse could understand Luca's words. Many high-level monsters had intelligence on par with humans.

However, after a lot of squeaking and flapping around, Luca still couldn't figure out what it was trying to say.

In the end, Susie played the role of translator, explaining what the little creature ant.

And what it ant was…

It had no idea either. It had just fallen asleep and woke up here.
