While a yellow and white shockwave from the Lich's phylactery being destroyed ripples through a large portion of the world, even the Demonic Berserker turns its attention to it over ten thousand kilometers away.

Raven takes advantage of this lapse in its attention and dives down straight toward the crimson monster's back.

Her breathing stays consistent, and her mind stays solely on her Divine Core and Soul Energy.

That is because, in such a high-stakes scenario, her instincts will activate portions of the system to increase her power or reactivate her greater form if she feels in danger.

The only way to ensure this doesn't happen is total concentration—thinking of nothing but soaring downward through stealth-infused space.

No pressure from the hot red aura creeps into her mind, and even the suppressed Noble Vibrations from deep within the Berserker's body don't slow Raven's mind or movements like they did previously.

As she soars within striking distance, the monster still believes she is completely gone.

The woman is like a ghost.

Her theory is correct. It is a success. Though one problem remains.

While in this state, she may not be detected, but she cannot land physical attacks.

Now, she has a saturated True Core and a level over 20,000, making her one of the strongest humans alive. But to land an actual deadly hit on this being that is technically three World Classes above her, she'll need to use her borrowed stats and greater form to pull this off.

From a calm state, flowing through an invisible pocket of reality, Raven counts down the milliseconds before impact and prepares to reactivate her system once the moment is right.

Once less than 100 meters away, with the monster looking in the completely opposite direction, still focused on the blast of energy from the other King's demise, Raven commits and goes in for the kill.

Behind her stealth veil, she reactivates her greater form and pulls a full 4% of all the stats available in the Rising Emperor's domain.

Within her body, her True Core re-tethers to all of this power surging into her, and the two silver blades in her hands glow bright yellow.

Simultaneously, the immense heat and pressure from this strange red aura seep through her divine stealth veil, and her mind begins to feel like it's been lit on fire.

All of her sensory alarms are blaring as it feels like her body is being melted. Though, she knows this is an illusion.

The last time she felt similar, as soon as she flew away and deactivated her system skills, all of the pain and pressure disappeared.

She doesn't waver in her flight path and keeps her calm demeanor, but still registers the ear-piercing screech from the Berserker as it begins to turn its body toward her faster than she's flying in.

In such a controlled and calculated state, Raven can perceive the world around her with great clarity.

Especially behind her stealth veil.

From decades of working for the Association and the members of the Order back on the human world, she has lived large portions of her life behind this barrier of space.

On spying missions to collect intel, to assassinate targets that plotted to gain too much power while not following the proper procedure, and even in her own free time, she could hide from the rulers of the human world without ever being sensed.
