Chapter 52: Stimulation
Damn it, is the change really that big?
How can she not even recognize who I am!
The expression on Yun Mu's face froze instantly. She opened her mouth, wanting to explain something, but not knowing how to explain it, she could only pretend to be playful and say:
"Oh my, is the change really that big?"
Playing dumb is all it takes; find a way to muddle through first!
Listening to her familiar voice, plus her clothing, and the room she came out of, even with such a big change, one would still associate it with her identity.
"Are you Miss Yun?"
Lita asked with some uncertainty.
"Yes, I am."
Yun Mu put on an appearance of taking it for granted.
Thanks to Brenna often making such expressions, she managed to imitate it with a seventy or eighty percent resemblance.
"These... uh, are all makeup." She looked at Lita and said.
While speaking, she herself almost failed to maintain that look of taking it for granted.
"Can makeup really be this amazing?"
Lita said with an expression of disbelief, then took the initiative to press her face to within five centimeters of Yun Mu's face.
"The look of the eyes seems so real."
She looked at Yun Mu's trembling pupils and said.
Eyes, is it the eyes that have changed a lot?
Hearing Lita's words, Yun Mu stepped back slightly.
"I'm going to wash up first!" she said.
Without waiting for Lita to reply, Yun Mu ran quickly toward the washroom.
She locked the washroom door and went to the sink, using the mirror above to look at her current appearance.
Her skin had become much more delicate, and the texture of her hair was even silkier?
These were not important; the biggest change was her eyes!
"How did I end up with heterochromia?"
Yun Mu pulled at the corners of her eyes with her hands, confirming that her pupils had truly changed color.
What to do now? Anyone who sees this pair of eyes would feel something is wrong.
Say it's colored contact lenses?
This world doesn't seem to have that thing.
Wear sunglasses?
Sunglasses seem to exist... it feels a bit troublesome.
Or should she just say that it was influenced by Supernatural power, which is why her eyes changed color?
Isn't that the truth!
As long as she omits the content about Scarlet and Bloodline, it doesn't seem impossible.
Standing in front of the mirror, Yun Mu was lost in thought.
While she was actually washing up in the bathroom, she began to ponder what she would do next.
That woman with scarlet eyes doesn't seem to have anything for her to do at the moment.
Then should she pretend nothing happened and continue to act according to the previous plan?
It seems that's all she can do.
Yun Mu thought while frowning, as she simply combed her long black hair.
Cutting off all ties and leaving Frostfall City is impossible; she had long ago registered her Identity Card and Supernatural certification at the Guard Hall. To take the Steam Train out of Frostfall City, she must first report it to the Guard Hall.
And upon arriving in a new city, she would also need to go to the local Guard Hall to register.
In this situation, how could she possibly hide her tracks!
Leave the city on foot?
Forget it.
Going alone into the sparsely populated wilderness is nothing but courting death.
Not to mention the problems of food and water sources in the wilderness, the Monsters everywhere in the wild are not something she can handle.
In this world, even the weakest Slime in the game can devour an adult man and dissolve him into slag!
Weak Monsters are one thing; she should be able to handle them, but once she encounters a powerful Monster, she can only wait for death.
"Gurgle gurgle~ Ptoo."
Spitting out the mouthwash after brushing her teeth, Yun Mu splashed her cheeks with water, wiped the water off her face with a towel, and walked out of the washroom.
Running away is not very realistic; not to mention the problems above, she couldn't even bear the consequences of breaking her contract with Brenna after running away.
In the end, it's just that she is too weak. If she had the strength to go head-to-head with Natavia, there probably wouldn't be so many things.
Thinking of this, she looked at the 【Dungeon Exploration】 function, which was still in a cooldown state, and sighed imperceptibly.
How does this crappy Golden Finger feel like it's almost being used by her as an item scanner and a self-status viewing bar?
The promised Dungeon function was only experienced once.
It doesn't even show a cooldown time, and she doesn't know how long it will take to cool down.
She hopes it won't be like some novel protagonists she read about in her past life, having to wait many years to wait for the Golden Finger to open again.
It shouldn't be, right?
Following the stairs to the first floor of the cafe, Yun Mu walked into the kitchen and saw at a glance Lita, who was already feasting, and Edward, who was opening a bottle of red wine for himself.
"Didn't you go to wash up? Why haven't you taken off your makeup yet?" Lita asked, looking at her, noting that she looked almost exactly the same as before.
Silly child, how could you actually believe that this was done with makeup?
Yun Mu slightly touched her forehead.
"This actually isn't makeup."
After thinking for a moment, she decided to come clean.
Anyway, Edward was already a Transcendental, and Lita wasn't far from becoming one herself.
So what would be so strange about her also being a Transcendental?
"Yun, Yun, Yun, Miss Yun is a Transcendental!?"
After Yun Mu explained that her eyes had changed due to Supernatural power and that she had already been a Transcendental for several days, Lita stood up from her chair with a look of shock.
She even stuttered a few times because she was too excited.
"Yes."
While eating breakfast, Yun Mu made 【Falling】 appear behind her.
Today's breakfast was a potato set, consisting of baked potato pancakes seasoned with chopped green onions and sprinkled with pepper, and fried potato balls with shredded white radish added to the filling.
It tasted salty and fragrant, made one's mouth water, and was full of energy.
Come to think of it, after becoming a Bloodline, Yun Mu was already able to perceive the scent of others' blood from a distance.
The scent of Lita's blood felt like an unripe lemon; just smelling it made one feel like they couldn't stop drooling.
As for the scent of Edward's blood, it revealed a very powerful force, somewhat like the roar of a steam engine, and somewhat like the crackling of burning firewood.
She found it hard to describe these sensations; rather than scents, they were more like some kind of sensory experience she was 'tasting'.
"I'm full!"
Just at this moment, Lita finished her breakfast in a hurry, stood up, and ran out of the cafe.
"I'm going to train!" she said.
It was obvious that she had been stimulated by the news that Yun Mu had long since become a Transcendental.
"This girl," Edward first shook his head helplessly, then looked at Yun Mu and asked, "Is the change in your eyes due to a certain domain?"
"Yes."
Facing the inquiry of a High-level Transcendent, Yun Mu nodded decisively: "It is a domain related to 【Cat】, which not only enhanced my dynamic vision but also allows me to see at night."
"A cat, huh."
Edward's expression was somewhat strange; he seemed to recall something and said, "In my memory, those who have mastered the 【Cat】 domain all eventually become..."
PS: Oh my, I suddenly remembered something while writing.
I have hidden many things in this book, and some things are not really suitable to be spoken of.
I hope that when everyone sees those things that are not suitable to be spoken of, you won't go around talking about them either.
Those who understand, just understand; do not spread it.
