Chapter 79: Are you two serious?

Alex didn't want to sound rude, but he believed that werewolves and their female counterparts would be more than glad to have that skill. He also didn't have problems imagining a few other races who would scream like Wolfen Demon, regardless of their gender.

He didn't say it out loud, though.

"So… Is it for me?" Alex asked awkwardly.

He didn't want to take all stuff for himself. Everyone had worked hard against the hungry demon and his pack. How could girls just get potions after that arduous work?

Alex openly said those thoughts.

Sara sweetly smiled, "I am really not interested in that skill. Look at Schnee. She is a cat woman. Her race says enough, right? As for me, I come from the dullahan kingdom. Werewolves wanted to be the dullahan's vassals in the past. If they didn't lose, they surely would be in close ties with my race… I would make a mistake by learning that skill."

Stella didn't need an explanation, so Sara just ended her explanation here. She continued to gaze at Alex with a warm smile, making him feel like he truly faced an older woman.

He scratched his hair, "I guess I will take it, then. Maybe I can have Bo learn that skill and help me in battles?"

Schnee teased, "After we refused that skill, you also don't want to howl like a moron, do you?"

"Haha! You are partially right," Alex chuckled without revealing too much.

And as Schnee wasn't that close with him, she couldn't pursue the matter. She clicked her tongue, then closed her eyes, waiting for the next item to appear on the table.

Alex didn't waste time.

He took out the token and put it on display.

Everyone's eyes landed on the token.

[Werewolf's Clan Treasury's Token(A) - A token will open Werewolves' weaponry.]

"Useless for us, then," Schnee commented first.

She couldn't imagine werewolves using swords or other weapons. Their primary weapon had always been the claws, so their weaponry would consist of weapons with which they would equip their claws.

In their peak form, they would turn into giant wolves. They would equip some teeth weapon or any other stuff in those forms.

Schnee used her little paws, but no way those items from weaponry would suit her.

At last, Sara and Alex used a spear and sword, respectively. They also found no use in the weaponry.

Sara sighed, "You can't be like that, Schnee. Those items are valuable. Even if only werewolves can use them, their material should be top-notch. If we get our hands on them, we will be able to melt and manufacture them into our weapons. There are much more uses to it, too. We can always sell them as well."

Alex added, "I agree. But you see… If werewolves lost their battle, their weaponry must be hidden somewhere in their lands. Those lands are occupied by vampires, and we also lack the level and circumstances to go here.

That's why I think we should put this token in our castle's treasury. What do you think?" Alex asked.

Everyone nodded.

With that, every item found its place. But once again, Alex felt awkward. He couldn't help but feel like that since all good stuff fell into his hands.

He said, "Maybe we should find Wolfen Demon again?"

"I have something to talk about with you, Alex. Let's speak about our hunts later," Sara suddenly said; her words sounded pretty serious.

Alex nodded, "Yes?"

"Celia told me some odd stuff today… She wanted to dye her hair, for example…" Sara deeply looked into Alex's eyes.

Alex understood what she had on mind.

Sara continued, "Do you want to disguise her? If not, then I don't know why you would ask her this… If you want to disguise her appearance and race, then you want to take her outside, right?"

It seemed like Sara's motherly's instincts read Alex's plan for his little friend. It was sweet how protective Sara was, though.

Alex smiled faintly, "I became good friends with Remia and every forest fairy was nice to me. I even went to Aqua Park with Remia, and we had a lot of fun here. It was indeed a good time for us.

I can tell that you all find it weird. All players like to fight and do quests, right? Well, I genuinely enjoy this world and its residents. For you, Schnee, I feel like we became friends, at least. As for Sara and Stella, I am sure you two have seen through the system already," Alex chuckled.

He added, "I want everyone to enjoy the world with me. But because of those circumstances, I stay away from my friends and girlfriend. You also stay away from the outer world… The one who has it the worst is Celia since she has barely seen the world. She doesn't have the experience with the outside like we do."

Alex remembered the group of three brats who had been happily enjoying the Aqua Park. They had different races, yet they got along. They were just kids, so they wouldn't even have those racial thoughts.

Celia should be the same. She should enjoy the world, even if it was just a little.

"If she manages to keep her head from falling off, she should be fine. We can also dye her hair, right? I have a checkpoint in the forest fairies' capital, so we can go in and out in one day without any problems. We won't have to go around the world just to find a safe place," Alex said.

Sara clutched her skirt. She looked down; her thoughts were turning into turmoil! What Alex said had touched her heart, and she also wanted her daughter to experience a little fun and make friends, even if it would be just for one day.

But her worry took over her. If, for some reason, the forest fairies attacked them, then they wouldn't be able to return safely.

Alex's return tickets wouldn't work in a battle.

The dullahan momma bit her lips, staring down onto the table with trembling eyes. The more she thought about Celia's happiness, the more she wanted to try this idea.

But her worry kept bugging her, "Are you sure the forest fairies won't attack us just because we are dullahans? We have human blood, but they should see through it. We are low-level, after all. And, what if they have connections with the dullahans? Are we sure they haven't contacted the other side for business relationships?

For their tribe, they will sell information about us without hesitation," Sara said sadly.

Alex gulped down at the words 'the other side'.

He knew that the world was vast as he had no information about dullahans or even Schnee's race from Tomo Homie. But after Sara's voice and the tone behind it, Alex formed a new impression of the vast world.

He clenched his fists and silently stared at Sara's face.

Stella remained quiet, her eyes on Alex's face.

Though, Schnee had been switching from Alex's handsome looks to Sara's pretty face quite frequently.

She then parted her lips, "Are you two serious now?"

She confirmed that they were indeed serious after their reaction.

Schnee squinted her eyes at Sara, "Don't tell me you will let your daughter leave the castle after becoming the strongest mother in the world or something?"

Sara shook her head, "It's too soon. Things only started getting better… I don't want this happiness to stop just because I am too greedy…"

"Poor Celia," Schnee sighed.

Sara threw her a glare, "I also want to leave! I want to go shopping with Celia. Buy her much more toys and clothes! I want to look over her as she gets new friends and plays with them! I want to gossip with other mothers about their children and husband! Ah…"

Schnee remained undaunted before Sara's outburst of emotions, "You haven't told us about your husband. Isn't it a perfect time to learn about that asshole?"

"My husband? He is not my husband anymore… The moment my father revealed his empty promises, the first thing I saw was my marriage oath crumbling into pieces," Sara replied emotionlessly.

As she found new hope in her life, her feelings for her former husband flew away from her heart.

Alex filled the hole in her heart, turning Sara's life for the better.

Therefore, she no longer spaced out or grew sad because of that man. Instead, Sara faced everyone with wide eyes and revealed what had happened a few years ago.
