Chapter 168: Skeleton
Because of Stella’s tears, Alex decided to spend more leisure time.
He took Stella and Celia to the bench, sitting close to each other. Here, Alex fished out a children book. He had read that book for Stella before, and it was a perfect time to continue reading that.
Celia also wanted to know more about the story.
She held her little hands in excitement as Alex read it aloud. On the other hand, Stella had been silently listening to them while hugging Alex’s arm.
But after a little while, Stella parted her lips, “I want to read too.”
Alex smiled widely while Celia looked at Stella with big eyes. After their reaction, Stella felt a weird pressure on herself, as if these two expected too much of them.
Stella didn’t yield to the pressure, however.
She took the book into her hands, slowly parting her lips. Her voice flew and reached everyone’s hearts, sounding like the divine whisper of a careful goddess.
She read slow but fluently, pulling heartstrings!
“Stella…” Alex whispered to Stella’s ear, as she didn’t react to his first call, “Celia’s sleeping.”
“Eh?” Stella lifted her eyes, shocked as she didn’t expect Celia to go to sleep.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe little dullahan didn’t even have a nap on her schedule. Stella turned her incredulous eyes to Celia, only to get surprised.
Alex chuckled, “It’s because of your soft voice. I also feel like sleeping… If it weren’t for Celia, I would use your thighs as a lap.”
Stella blushed, nodding to her beloved, “Next time.”
“Yes,” Alex whispered after grinning, not daring to wake up the little dullahan.
It was also quite good that Celia went for a nap because Alex and Stella got more time for each other. They carefully carried Celia to her bedroom, then left her alone, going for their own matters.
Alex and Stella looked into each other’s eyes. Within those hues, the same emotion flared, getting hotter as the time passed.
They spent an hour in Stella’s room, shaking the bed.
After that, Alex went to the treasury with his dazzling goddess by his side. Stella held his arm tightly, matching his pace. She also didn’t use wings, as if preparing herself to be more active around her beloved.
It was pretty funny as Alex knew that she used wings with Celia!
He still couldn’t help but smile at Stella’s progress.
“What are we going to the treasury for?” Stella asked softly.
But as no answer came out, she lifted her eyes to look at Alex. After seeing his grin widen, Stella pouted and added, “Don’t smile like that.”
“But I can’t stop,” Alex caressed her back while conveying his emotions. He then replied to her inquiry, “There’s an item I’ve received in the early levels. That item had no grade, and I couldn’t use it at earlier levels.
However, I’ve reached enough prerequisites to use that… It’s called the Bone Seal,” Alex explained.
Stella asked for more information with her curious eyes, only to get a shrug as the response.
After finding herself before the treasury, Stella received another shock of the day. Today has been particularly unique as Stella had been receiving surprise after surprise.
“Welcome back, Master,” Erin’s voice reached both Alex and Stella.
While Alex remained composed, Stella had been cautiously listening and trying to see through the treasury’s person. She even thought of going through the doors, but Alex and Erin’s conversation had been pretty easy-going.
Even if she was someone put here by Elias Deathwill, Erin’s presence and will belonged to Alex. From her voice, Stella couldn’t sense any trickery or ill-intent.
“I want a Bone Seal. I put that here in early levels,” Alex smiled after telling Erin about his adventure with homies.
He also proudly said how cute Stella was. And as Erin could see the gorgeous white-haired lady, she agreed with Alex from the bottom of her heart.
‘Jealousy…’ Stella whispered inwardly, feeling the emotions behind the treasury’s spirit voice.
For now, the winged goddess decided to ignore the spirit.
Alex also received the item in his inventory. He didn’t spend too much time with Erin, but enough to tell her that he thought about her. She was a peculiar case with immense knowledge, so Alex didn’t want to neglect her and his responsibilities.
It was his duty to look after his people, after all.
He and Stella headed to the outside.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAnd outside, they went through the castle’s walls, becoming vulnerable to any hungry demons’ attacks. In this peculiar land with Deathwill Castle, Alex knew about more demons than just Wolfen Demon.
However, it didn’t seem like they had any plans to attack Alex and his castle.
He nodded, “In the dungeon conquest, I’ve received the soul fragments from the orc… On the last floor, I got even the boss’ soul fragment. The system told me that I could utilize them on Deathwill Castle’s grounds.
After coming here, I rechecked it, learning a little more stuff. First, I need the Earth Soul Land’s unique attribute to utilize those soul fragments. Secondly, I need this Bone Seal,” Alex took out the bone seal.
It looked like finger bones forcefully bent to make a circle. That item’s description had been unavailable for Alex before. However, his system was omnipotent. No, every player’s system was omnipotent.
However, not every player could get as much help from the system as Alex. His system knew that he had the means to utilize the soul fragments through the castle’s grounds and the bone seal!
He put the seal on the ground, “Now, the souls.”
Alex took out the soul fragments. They were blue orbs that didn’t seem like souls at all. However, they reminded Alex of Sara and Celia’s eyes. And as he stared at them deeply, Alex felt like he saw a few more similar eyes to these orbs…
“The soul grave-keeper… I am forgetting someone?” Alex recked his brain as he tried to remember and get rid of this weird feeling building up within him.
He then sighed and continued with the process.
After the souls flew to the Bone Seal, Alex activated the item. It had already connected with the souls and Earth Soul Land.
From the seal, countless bones started sprouting out.
“Nobum’s Skeleton shall appear here,” Alex whispered.
Stella’s eyes narrowed.
