Chapter 329: Chapter 227: Rosaline’s Level Breakthrough! Super Rare Trait Selection

’I never thought Auntie’s inner fear would be the Night Witch...’

The moment Roxia laid eyes on the Night Witch, a subtle light flickered in her aquamarine eyes, her gaze a mixture of unconcealable surprise and a hint of fear.

She had never seen the Night Witch before, having only heard stories about her deeds from others.

Now, seeing her in person, a visceral fear surged through Roxia.

The Night Witch’s terror didn’t come from a hideous appearance. Through the swirling black mist, one could faintly make out a face as beautiful as a painting, bearing a striking resemblance to Princess Vivian.

But her beauty held a sinister charm, like that of an Empress who would stop at nothing to poison any woman more beautiful than herself. Her golden eyes, in particular, were utterly chilling.

"Exactly the same..."

Su Xuan whispered softly. The Night Witch in his memory was identical to the one before him now, a perfect match for the woman he had encountered in his chaotic consciousness when he received the Witch’s Eye.

’Although,’ he thought, ’the Night Witch I met in that chaotic consciousness felt more real. After all, this phantom created by the Knight’s Oath is just a manifestation of Rosaline’s inner fear.’

Facing the fear hidden deep within her, Rosaline let out a soft breath of blue Soul Aura and drew the Oath Sword from her waist.

Though her emotions had become far more stable after becoming one of the Undead, the hand gripping her sword still couldn’t help but tremble slightly as the Night Witch appeared before her once more.

The long-buried memory tore open like an old wound, flooding her mind. The nightmare from twenty years ago—the image of Demon Beasts, controlled by the Night Witch, destroying the Yerman Clan’s entire fleet—was as vivid as if it were happening right now.

Now, fear and despair echoed once more. The pain of the memory caused Rosaline’s Soul Body to emit a faint, fluorescent blue light, like a twinkling star in the night sky.

Su Xuan watched quietly, knowing this was a result of her emotional turmoil. Even someone like Rosaline had fears she could not overcome.

He softly reassured Rosaline, "Just give it your all. We’re here for you."

In response, Rosaline glanced back at him. Then, she turned her gaze back to the Night Witch floating in the black mist, her turbulent emotions gradually subsiding. Her right hand gripped the Oath Sword tightly as a black and golden light flowed over the blade, looking exceptionally brilliant.

The next moment, Rosaline shot forward like a bolt of lightning, charging straight at the Night Witch.

Facing Rosaline’s challenge, the Night Witch’s phantasm let out a bloodcurdling laugh.

The black mist swirling around her surged, transforming into Demon Beasts of various forms that swarmed toward Rosaline like a tidal wave.

In response, Rosaline moved like the wind, her blade a flash of lightning, instantly cutting down the Demon Beasts conjured from the black mist.

She then charged toward the Night Witch, her Oath Sword crackling with brilliant blue lightning. Every swing carried a Thunderous Might. Under the ferocity of her assault, the Night Witch’s phantasm could only barely defend itself with the black mist.

Su Xuan watched from the sidelines, a satisfied look in his eyes. ’Rosaline adapted to her new Rare Traits quickly. Her performance in actual combat isn’t bad, either.’

Thanks to her Lightning Flash and Soul Light Wings traits, Rosaline was as fast as lightning. Though she couldn’t maintain that speed for long, a momentary burst was enough to deal a fatal blow to her enemies.

Furthermore, her high-speed movement combined with the durability from her Crystal Structure trait made her close-quarters combat abilities unrivaled among those of the same Level.

Even compared to a Mythical Adventurer, Mare Rhine probably wouldn’t be a match for Rosaline unless she used her Power of Destruction or transformed into her true Giant Dragon form.

’So strong!’

Roxia watched from the side, utterly dumbfounded. She simply couldn’t believe her eyes. The aunt she once knew had grown to become this powerful!

Rosaline had already far surpassed even the strongest Knight recorded in the history of Sunset City.

’No, that’s not it!’

A powerful conviction welled up in Roxia’s heart. She was certain that even within the Star Knight Order, her aunt would surely be ranked among the very best.

’And the source of all this power...’

Roxia’s gaze drifted involuntarily to Su Xuan, who stood beside her. Her lovely eyes trembled slightly, her heart filled with a storm of complex emotions.

She knew in her heart that the reason her aunt had grown so strong so quickly wasn’t just due to her own outstanding talent and hard work; the help of this Guild President was indispensable.

’This made her incredibly envious. If she could also win Su Xuan’s favor and help, could she also obtain greater Power?’

’If only she could, too...’

Suddenly, the Night Witch’s eyes shot out a brilliant golden light, like two stars flaring in the dead of night.

In that instant, Rosaline felt as if her body were bound by invisible shackles. Unable to move an inch, she was frozen in place.

’This is bad!’

Witnessing this, Su Xuan’s brow furrowed slightly.

He knew that the Night Witch’s Dominated Demon Eye was affecting Rosaline’s soul, trapping her in a state of paralysis.

However, with the Knight’s Loyalty trait in play, completely dominating Rosaline’s will was nothing but a pipe dream.

The Night Witch’s phantasm moved a fingertip, seemingly trying to compel Rosaline to take her own life with her sword.

But just as the Oath Sword began to rise, Rosaline’s body suddenly erupted in a deep blue light.

As the light surged, the effect of the Dominated Demon Eye vanished completely. Gripping her Oath Sword anew, she charged the Night Witch once more.

Before the Night Witch could even assume a defensive stance, the Oath Sword had already slashed down, cleaving her body of black mist in two.

As the black mist dissipated, the Night Witch’s figure vanished completely into the endless darkness.

After the battle ended, a notification popped up in Su Xuan’s vision:

[Rosaline’s Challenge Mission (Completed)!]

[Rosaline’s Level has increased to 50!]

[Rosaline’s All Attributes +50!]

[Rosaline has achieved accelerated Growth! For every Level she gains, she will receive 24 additional Attribute Points (freely allocatable)!]

A flash of delight appeared in Su Xuan’s eyes as he saw the notification.

He finally understood why Adventurers experienced such astonishing growth in their Attributes after reaching Level 50. These freely allocatable extra Attribute Points allowed every Adventurer to pursue personalized growth based on their own characteristics and combat style.

For Rosaline, this meant she would inevitably choose to strengthen her Power and agility. For the Elf Sisters, on the other hand, increasing their Magic Attribute was far more critical.
