Chapter 104: Elias Deathwill feared him
[You have received one page from Elias Deathwill’s diary.]
Since the situation was tense and no one could adequately form words, Alex had little time to read that one page. He also hadn’t mentioned the old man’s voice, so no one was that tense yet.
After reading the first page, Alex understood just what kind of an enemy the soul grave-keeper was.
Elias Deathwill had met him in an unexpected situation. Their meeting was coincidental, yet it resulted in a clash. They had a staring contest for around ten seconds before drawing out their weapons and undead.
In that contest, Elias Deathwill’s heart grew louder and frightened. That powerful and absurd swordsman was scared of the King Of The Underworld.
‘I can’t read more… How did their clash end?’ Alex clicked a tongue inwardly, ‘And if you knew what kind of a land you are putting your daughters and castle in, then even Sara and I can no longer defend you.’
Although Elias Deathwill was a man with many flaws, and his actions potentially had hurt more people than his sword enemies, Alex’s father-in-law was someone who worked to help his daughters.
Even that battle maniac and the selfish king could see that his daughter would be left alone or with a heavy burden on their backs.
For that, Sara and Alex could forgive him.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAlas, if he had intentionally thrown them into the soul grave-keeper’s lands, there was no excuse for him.
‘But if not here, then where? No… I can’t find excuses for that man… I should just believe that he had a good reason to send everyone here…’ Alex concluded.
He then raised a question amidst the solemn silence, “It’s fair to assume that we are in that king’s territory, right?”
“Yes,” Sara nodded. Her voice was pretty weak, “What’s worse is that the Deathwill Castle has a slight connection with this place. Do you remember the skeletons, Alex? They resonated with your class and system.”
Alex agreed, “I seriously can not understand your father.”
As if she had been waiting for that moment, Schnee scoffed, “You don’t have to. At worst, we will escape this place and forcefully find a place for ourselves in the outer world. It’s not like we have to stay behind.
This place might be good, but our lives are more important,” Schnee wanted to say that line for some time now.
The Deathwill Castle would unlock many valuable facilities and options for everyone here. Still, their safety and Alex’s presence were much more important.
Alex’s legendary class alone broke the common sense.
Schnee clicked her tongue, “We can agree on that bastard’s strength, though.” She looked to the side, not really wanting to speak more.
But as Schnee started something, Alex wanted her to speak further.
At last, Schnee praised her father a little, “He has created a class that breaks the world’s rules. Our world has imposed the system on us. We became like the second-rate characters while players took the whole spotlight.
Only a scant of us can level up, yet that is also highly limited for us. Your class breaks that common sense,” Schnee closed her eyes as if utterly not liking her thoughts.
But in reality, she just disliked her father, who was the great mind behind Alex’s class.
And as she reached this point, Schnee said, “If he could break the common sense, then what about the soul grave-keeper? While that bastard was making connections with other races, the soul grave-keeper already had numerous battles with the Darkmana Empire and other factions.
We are in that kind of guy’s land,” Schnee whispered those last words slowly and powerlessly.
Alex stared at Schnee. His eyes were focused on her beautiful face. He looked so intensely that Schnee batted her eyelashes, revealing her golden eyes rapidly.
He chuckled, “Turn into a cat and come into my hands. I will pet you.”
“Huh?” Schnee let out a voice that asked more than a thousand questions.
Alex smiled wider, “You are too stressed. And since you can turn into a little cat, your change won’t disturb the further talks.
Don’t think too much of it, and come,” Alex extended his hands.
Schnee couldn’t give up on such an occasion. She promptly turned into a little cat form, then skipped her way through the table into Alex’s embrace.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe held her dearly, then scratched below her chin, making Schnee let out pretty loud kitty noises.
As she settled in his hands, Alex looked into everyone’s eyes, “We shouldn’t abandon the Deathwill Castle. It’s our home, after all. Of course, I won’t be stubborn and force everyone to fight until death.
If we end up facing the genuine threat of the whole undead army, we will use leave tickets and escape somewhere else,” Alex said.
And then, he added, “The Soul Grave-keeper is probably limited by the Deathwill Castle. Otherwise, how come we haven’t seen him in a person yet? There’s one crack already, and we can’t exude the possibility of more cracks in different facilities which still remain sealed.
In that shelter, he had planted a ghoul. That monster’s level wasn’t high, so we could deal with him. But there’s something that convinces me more, though; the ghoul’s level. It was pretty low as if higher levels would suffer an instant death.”
Alex added that the ghoul fought on his own. If the soul grave-keeper could use his whole power, he would’ve controlled the ghoul and caused much more problems for Alex and Remia.
To his words, everyone except Schnee agreed. The cat woman was feeling too good to even listen properly. She still caught some points, so she knew that their situation was not that bad.
Sara replied, “He also hasn’t attacked the Darkmana in recent years. Maybe he has found a new goal or analyzes the system?”
Alex was glad that she asked this question, “I think he has a new goal. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have spoken to me.”
As those words reverberated throughout everyone, Alex revealed the old man’s voice and what he had conveyed to him.
At this point, even Schnee couldn’t enjoy Alex’s patting.
She returned to her serious self.
