Chapter 403: She’s friends with everyone already!
After one day ban, Alex and Ste entered the Avander World.
Alex simply couldn’t return before because he didn’t have the power to activate The Fallen Goddess’ Marriage Ring. Had he had the power of it on Earth, Alex would’ve been able to easily bypass the twenty-four hours ban.
Some break was also nice, however.
The couple didn’t know how many things happened during that ban, for they had been in each other’s embrace, cuddling after hard work.
But first…
“Where is everyone?” Alex asked Remia, who wastely the most in Deathwill Castle due to her elven bloodline awakening slowly within the Main Garden’s embrace. She simply cultivated here.
She would always stop and take a break to greet and spend some time with Alex. It was one of those times.
Remia grinned, “They are ying hide and seek right now.”
Ste, who had been looking out for Veronica, trembled, her eyes twitching. She wanted to take care of her daughter, yet Celia had already converted everyone into her friend, and they just yed games, nothing more!
Alex burst outughing, his heart sweet as Celia was indeed a sociable girl despite being alone for most of her life. She was the same on Earth in school with other kids.
“There’s so many of them that once caught, they all join seekers to find others. They have been ying for a while now, so you two can wait in the Main Garden. I’d love somepany, too,” Remia invited her beloved and lovely Ste for a short pic.
And as much as she wanted to cuddle and be affectionate with Alex, Remia knew it was not time for it. She paid a lot of attention to mood and circumstances, knowing that Alex was getting overwhelmed by it.
She learned about that from her mother— who, under pressure — had exined her heart and what had happened before.
It was painful, for Remia genuinely wanted her mother to feel love from the opposite gender again. It didn’t even take a lot of time for Remia to ept the fact that it would be her future husband providing that love, for Alex had already seized the lips of Ste’s mother.
Yet, it was not as easy as Remia thought.
Alex wasn’t a person who sought harem or went around the world in search of beauty for his family. Other than his rtionship with Olivia, other girls had fallen into his hands on their own due to fate and many other circumstances, but mainly due to them genuinely falling in love with him.
And the only reason he ever went for Ste’s mother was because of Elias Deathwill, who had been lying and hurting both his wives and daughters. In their case, it was easy for him to forget some boundaries and just go for them.
But Remia’s mom would always be mother-inw in his eyes. There was no reason for Alex to even think of seeing her differently. And Yumia was at fault, too, for she had given ambiguous signs and invitations for a long time.
And when she was ready to attack, Alex dropped a bomb that simply stopped her.
Remia inwardly sighed, not knowing what a future held for her mother. Perhaps, she would find someone else, or maybe something significant would happen between her and Alex.
She was d that Anais Foxtail turned out to be a great woman that helped her mother severely. These two worked and spent a lot of time together, bing stronger as a duo, which tranted to forest fairies and foxes bonding together as a whole.
After a casual talk with Alex and Ste, Remia felt like talking about kids who were in need of care, “It will be hard to find a home for them, won’t it?”
There wouldn’t be homeless or abandoned kids if it was so easy.
Alex nodded, gravely looking ahead, “I will take Veronica to our family, for she’s a perfect sister for Celia. The events from yesterday also made me realize that there are more kids with the authorities.
So if we visit a realm, we should also keep an eye on them,” Alex whispered, telling his beloveds that he inferred that authority wasn’t innate but something acquired.
It was just his spection, of course.
But Alex knew Celia’s past. She was a half-human, half-duhan, about to be ostracized and left alone with her mother without any backing. Sara’s tears perhaps brought down authority to her daughter, a miracle.
Veronica was also a girl wounded by fate. Perhaps, her kindness and desire to help everyone rewarded her with authority.
“As for others… We will find a way,” Alex believed in that as well.
Ste parted her lips, adding in her soft voice, “Some might have qualities to be maids and butlers of my household.”
Although people often toyed with maids in the Avander World and its realm, Ste knew that her grandpa wouldn’t allow such a thing to happen under his roof. In his household, maids’ bodies belonged to only them.
So there was no way the little ones would end up in jeopardy under his wing.
“It’s best for them to find homes in the Winged Realm,” Ste also added.
“You make it sound like I should let Veronica live in the Winged Realm, too… Maybe that’s the best,” Alex sounded a little saddened, for he knew that Ste felt happy to be a mother, and he also wanted Celia to have a close sister.
Ste wouldn’t let Veronica go, though, “She has authority, so she should stay with Celia.”
After events in the underground, both Alex and Ste were confident in Veronica’s power and that it was authority.
Alex nodded, his smile wider.
“We will find a way. There are a lot of good people who would take care of those kids, but they simplyck funds. I don’t mind supporting them for a few years with our assets,” Alex exined.
Remia nced at him with narrowed eyes, “Speaking of those funds, even though the Deathwill Castle’s treasury is abundant in money, our spending is increasing severely as you have decided to support the Alliance.”
“We need to make contact with another continent, don’t we?” Alex awkwardlyughed, believing that a connection with another continent would open a business route that would help the Alliance and Deathwill with their businesses.
Remia and Ste sighed, then both said the same thing, “Force people to pay for barracks, idiot.”
