"Damn, I feel so powerful right now!"

  In truth, Pixie was buzzing with excitement.

  Though her in-game persona wore a permanent scowl, having forgotten all emotion, the real Pixie was still very much human. She didn’t fully understand what it meant to forget feelings, but she could definitely feel her newfound strength.

  On top of the golden title of "Forgetter," her cultivation abilities had surged, thanks to the rebirth of her soul.

  Right now, she was brimming with an immense, raw power—nothing like her former self!

  “Is this what they mean by ‘going dark’?”

  I’m coming for that bastard Eirik!

  Killing him... Well, maybe that's a bit extreme. We were once married, after all. Maybe I should just cripple his powers, make him my servant, and have him bring me tea and wash my feet every day...

  No, wait! That jerk tried to kill me! I can’t show mercy—I have to kill him!

  Yes, I have to kill him!

  Pixie muttered under her breath.

  "Though, I’m much stronger now, I’m still only Savant Lv1. That guy is probably at Lv4 or Lv5. I might still be no match for him. Guess I’ll have to keep a low profile for now."

  With that thought, Pixie dove into intense training.

  【Congratulations! You’ve gained a special status: Infiltrator (Purple)】

  【Infiltrator: Increases magic learning speed by 10%, comprehension by 5%.】

  Huh, there's this added bonus to my training? Another purple title?

  Pixie smiled, pleased with the results.

  “Damn, did Pip just get lucky?”

  “This is amazing! Did I just suddenly level up to a gold card?”

  The world chat exploded with excitement.

  Before, when they’d seen Pixie sulking in that decrepit temple, everyone thought her save file was done for. They assumed she’d have to start over.

  Even her quest for revenge against that bastard Eirik seemed like something for another life.

  But who could’ve guessed she'd come out of it like this?!

  “A gold card? I don’t think anyone among us players has ever reached that!”

  Selene exclaimed, her voice a mix of shock and envy.

  “To be fair, Eirik may be a jerk, but without him, Pip wouldn’t have become a gold card!”

  “Ha! Are you saying Pip should thank him?”

  The twists and turns of this situation sparked the curiosity of many female players, igniting their gossiping spirits.

  "Thanks for your concern, but I, Pixie... I mean, Sister Adelina, have a score to settle with that scoundrel Eirik. This isn’t over!"

  Pixie personally chimed in on the world chat.

  She was determined to confront Eirik!

  All this frantic training was for the day she’d get her revenge!

  As she watched her in-game self grow stronger bit by bit, Pixie fell into deep thought.

  Unless something unexpected happened, she too would end up as the legendary Heaven-Forsaken Body in reality, doomed to have her soul sealed away, becoming just another ordinary person.

  Should she follow her in-game self’s path and learn that forgotten magic tome?

  And Eirik, that bastard! Had she known he was such a heartless scoundrel, she never would’ve tried to recruit him. Tomorrow, she’d find an excuse to give him a good beating and kick him out of the manor!

  Hmph!

  Thinking about the injustices she suffered in the game made Pixie want to cry.

  The feeling of betrayal from her husband, being hunted by countless enemies, with no one to turn to—just imagining it left her breathless.

  Being betrayed by the person she trusted most—how despairing her in-game self must have felt!

  “I can’t forgive that jerk. I have to beat him up tomorrow! No, I’m going to do it right now!”

  With that, Pixie kicked off her covers and jumped out of bed.

  In the game, I couldn’t defeat you, but in reality, I won’t lose either!

  I’m a Practitioner-level master now, and you’re just a Stalwart level!

  Throwing on a loose outfit, Pixie strode barefoot to Eirik’s door, despite the confused looks from her maid.

  Knock, knock, knock!

  A series of loud, impatient knocks echoed.

  "Eirik! Open the door! Now!"

  Her voice rang with demand as the knocking continued.

  "What’s going on? It’s late!"

  Eirik was puzzled. He was in the middle of an intense game session, where Pip was on the verge of unlocking the forgotten magic tome he had orchestrated.

  "Coming, Lady Pip! What can I do for you?"

  Eirik opened the door, wearing an expression of confusion.

  “I...”

  Seeing his innocent, bewildered expression, Pixie felt a rush of anger suddenly fade.

  True, he didn’t have memory simulation—he hadn’t done anything wrong yet.

  Was it really fair to beat him up without cause?

  “Ugh, I’m so furious!”

  Pixie huffed, shaking her small fist at his face, but ultimately did nothing. She turned on her heel and stormed off.

  ？？？？

  Eirik watched as she marched away barefoot, fuming, his mind spinning with questions.

  What just happened?!

  Ravenshadow’s lady has a strange temper!

  It’s so baffling!

  Is she... on her period?

  Eirik shrugged it off. He was far too focused on his game to dwell on this real-world nonsense!

  Pip in the game was still waiting for him.

  He wouldn’t let this real-world woman distract him!

  As he opened the simulation panel, a flurry of system notifications flashed before him.

  【After five years of magic study, your power has significantly increased, reaching Savant Level 5.】

  【You’ve learned Abyssal Tempest (Purple).】

  【You’ve learned Celestial Convergence (Purple).】

  …

  While Pixie had been in seclusion, forgetting her emotions, Eirik hadn’t been idle. He’d joined the Dawnstar Dynasty and became a knight mentor in the Holy Light Order.

  At first, some had been skeptical about this new mentor, but he proved himself with his skill and dedication, earning their respect.

  No need to delve into the usual details here.

  Thanks to the high regard of the alchemy master Violanda, Eirik had learned many secret techniques from the Holy Light Order.

  Abyssal Tempest, Celestial Convergence, and other powerful spells were now within his grasp.

  Now, his abilities had grown even stronger.

  Though he was only Savant Lv5, his power might rival that of some Savant Lv7 masters!

  But as he reviewed his newfound strength, Alchemy Master Violanda brought him unsettling news.

  【“Eirik, Pixie has mastered the Forgotten Tome and reached Savant Lv4. She’s coming to kill you.”】

  ?

  Alchemy Master, this isn’t what you told me earlier!?

  Eirik felt a wave of gloom wash over him. According to Violanda’s earlier words, after forgetting her emotions, Pixie would become like a stone—devoid of love, hate, or regret.

  So why the hell was she after him now, as if he were some enemy she’d never met?
