Chapter 1025 - The Resurrected Sonia
It succeeded.
Rhode heaved a sigh of relief, lowering his head and gazing at the card in his hand. It was a green card with Sonia in the middle. But unlike the Sonia from Rhode’s impression, the young lady on the card was kneeling in the middle of a world of mirrors. At first glance, she had as though entered a house of mirrors in a carnival, placing her clenched hands on her chest as though she were praying. Although the card was distinct, for some reason, he had an indistinct misconception as though the card wasn’t an entity, but was more like an illusory existence. The upper right corner of the card was marked with a huge [I], while the bottom had the numbers 2 and 3 respectively. Rhode flipped the card around and a system prompt appeared before him.

What a strange card.
After reading the text on the back, Rhode knitted his brows curiously. The attributes of this summoning spirit had nothing to do with the history of its previous life. Even though Rhode was curious as to what Sonia had become, her transformation surprised him greatly. He had never heard about this so-called ‘Illusory Elf’. Besides, judging from her attributes, she didn’t seem like the kind suitable for confrontational battles. If not, she would be instantly killed in a single blow with the low offensive and defensive values of 2 and 3. Perhaps any warriors who transcended the Master Stage would easily slaughter her. But after carefully analyzing the skills, Rhode discovered that it wasn’t as simple as he had imagined.
After Sonia calmed down, she quickly told Rhode what she experienced, especially in the case where the parliament brought her to the tomb and Nakvard forced the disgusting bug into her body. The thought of that made her shiver all over. Even though she became the Illusory Elf and wasn’t human anymore, the painful experience was still etched in her mind.
“Everything is in the past, Sonia.”
Rhode didn’t interrupt her. Instead, he listened patiently to the end of her report. He knew that she wasn’t only fulfilling her duty, but also venting her frustrations and expressing the fears in her mind. No matter what, she was killed once. Besides, with her age, it was too challenging for her to deal with the sly and cunning Chaos worshipers. It was obvious how much pressure she was under in Casabianca. And now, she finally returned to his side. If she didn’t vent the frustrations, perhaps she wouldn’t be able to tolerate it herself.
This was why he didn’t interrupt her. After she finished speaking, he extended his arm and caressed her hair.
“It’s all over, Sonia.”
“… Yes, Master. I apologize for my…”
“It’s fine. Since you’re willing to do so much for me, I don’t see why I must blame you for it.”
Rhode waved his hand airily to her uncomfortable apologies.
“But now, we have a problem that needs your help.”
“What is it, Master?”
Sonia asked curiously. Rhode shrugged and said, “Lilian.”
