Chapter 178: Problem solved
Alex was at a loss of words.
He had rarely seen Remia’s stubborn side. Her current expression reminded him of her giving him her whole trust. Although she didn’t let out tears, Remia looked quite similar.
She was honest and kind-hearted as usual, thinking about others.
Alex bit his lips, “You are precious to me, Remia. My real reward is you being my friend… That’s why I don’t want this present. I also believe it will help you get stronger… It will help you overcome your mother, go beyond level hundred and even meet elves.
I want to meet those elves with you,” Alex smiled, hoping that his words would convince Remia.
But she didn’t give up. No matter how gentle and friendly Alex would speak to her, Remia wouldn’t yield to his kindness. She would refuse all his words, forcing him to utilize every reward for himself and his beloveds!
“You are too nice, Alex. Everyone from your family would benefit from this present… That’s the treasure coming from your castle, after all… You can’t be thinking of your friends, stuffing them with every treasure you get.
I’m the first person you’ve helped… Sara and Schnee are already outside the castle, meeting other people Elias Deathwill has lied to… Will you also give those people the quest’s rewards?
What about your wives?” Remia asked before biting her lips and looking at Alex with a peculiar expression.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Remia… But you aren’t just ‘other people’. I really like you… Everyone likes you, so I want you to keep going forward, match our levels and be happy. You’re right, though. I won’t give presents to everyone. I will strengthen people close to my heart. You are one of them, so please, take the present,” Alex extended his hand, putting it softly on Remia’s shoulder and hoping that she would give in.
Alas, Remia shook her head, “Unfortunately, Olivia is not here. I might be not your girlfriend, but I will use myself as an example to keep you on a proper path.
Take all good stuff to yourself and your girls! Understood?!” Remia put the present on the ground.
She turned around, heading to her room.
The doors were open as she wanted Alex and Stella to follow her. She didn’t want their visit to end here.
Alex and Stella remained motionless.
After some time, Stella used her wing magic on the present, lifting it. The present landed on her hand. Once again, using the same magic, Stella opened the present. She peeked into its content before closing it up.
She looked at Alex, “Let’s meet her again.”
“Yes…” Alex sighed, not expecting Remia to be so adamant.
After entering her room, Alex took a seat by the table. He already noticed many potions on the table, which surprised him as he didn’t expect such a sight. Her table was quite messy, but Remia made a spot for snacks.
Stella was sitting on Alex’s side.
She took the lead to speak, “We will use this present in the castle’s main garden. Because we are making this choice because of you, you must swear to regularly visit our castle, at least three times a week.”
Stella’s voice and fluent speech shocked Remia to the bone. She stared at the winged girl, her big green eyes blinking as if she saw something absurd. After a few seconds, Remia blushed and apologized for her reaction.
‘Stella’s voice is so soft and smooth… She also spoke more than she should! I see… You two are really doing great, don’t you?’ Remia whispered inwardly while staring at Alex and Stella at the same time.
They were polar opposites, yet they looked so good together.
Remia nodded, “I promise.”
Alex’s face eased as he sighed with relief.
He then opened the present, taking out a red crystal. He just saw the name and stats of the item beforehand, so even Alex looked at its description.
[Elven’s Crystallized Heart(Legendary) – A special manufacturing method has been used to crystallize the heart of the forgotten race.]
And then, everyone saw a different system’s message.
Remia had a faint elven bloodline, so she saw the benefits she would receive after absorbing the heart into her body.
Stella also could absorb the heart. She would increase her health points significantly after devouring it wholly.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAlex could use his new crafting skill, Bloodrune Crafting, to draw exceptional and dazzling bloodrunes on his clothes or swords.
In fact, he really wanted to try the crafting method now. He still hadn’t used that power, so Alex surely would test it from normal monsters’ blood, then he would use the crystal.
That was if he had the crystal heart.
Alex leaned down on the chair, looking at Remia with different eyes, “Remia… I see what you meant… But even though I have that desire to progress with this item, I still want to give it to you.
Am I weird? For you, I might be weird, then,” Alex sighed.
Remia shook her head, quite disappointed.
Stella parted her lips, alleviating the situation, “We will use it in the garden, so drop your pointless talk. You are wasting your energy.
The garden in our castle should get unique effects like the royal bath. It will be beneficial to everyone,” Stella explained her reasoning.
Alex could only thank her as he believed he would’ve pressed Remia to take the present if they were alone.
Remia was also happy with that development, “I can’t wait to see the new garden! It’s something I can not predict, so I look forward to it!”
She also would get more tickets to Alex’s castle as Stella wanted her to arrive at least three times a week. Although Remia couldn’t tell whether there was something more behind those words, she would never mind having more access to the Deathwill Castle.
She would be able to surprise everyone with those tickets, particularly Celia.
As that topic was finally over, Alex took a potion into his hand. That potion was green, yet it healed the player!
“It’s HP Potion?” Alex titled his head, curious about Remia’s work.
Remia grinned, “Try it.”
