Chapter 75: Returning home with three beauties on him
[You have killed Wolfen Demon.]
The peculiar werewolf demon let out his last breath before turning into thousand red bits. Alex's legendary class converted those bits equally into EXP for everyone, meaning that his whole party leveled up.
New items swarmed the area the fallen damage had been before.
Alex noticed his Ice Breath protruding from the ground as if Wolfen Demon planted the weapon before his death. Next to the ice sword, Alex also saw quite a fashionable jacket. It was indeed a good quality armor!
Moreover, Wolfen Demon dropped a skill book. A few player-like items also littered the ground, such as mana and health potions. At last, Alex noticed a token of the royal werewolf family.
"It seems like we got good stuff! Good job, everyone!" Alex grinned with unconcealable happiness.
But while he looked clean and rejuvenated, the same couldn't be said about the Deathwill Sisters. Their level up didn't bring their HP and MP back to full. They also looked tired, both mentally and physically.
Simple healing wouldn't erase that kind of fatigue, after all.
Schnee glared at him, "Could you not shout loud like that?"
After Alex apologized softly, Schnee sighed and turned around. She glanced at her stats, which had risen significantly due to Alex's class. There was a clear contrast between fighting together with Alex and without him.
Against four bosses, Schnee and the other girls had barely gained any experience points. But with him by their side, their exp bars stretched forward like a rocket!
And as Schnee recalled Alex's solo battle against Wolfen Demon in his Ultimate Skill, Schnee's body grew hotter. She promptly turned into her little cat form, then jumped into his clothes.
"Carry me back home. I am exhausted," Schnee said.
"I wanted to offer that," Alex chuckled.
He then glanced toward Sara and Stella, who both looked relieved. Even though the winged lady didn't show much on her face, Alex saw within her eyes that she was relieved and that she wanted to go to sleep already.
Alex patted Stella's hair, "Leave the rest to me."
Stella nodded, then flapped her wings. She took the spot on his back. Using her new profound connection, Stella magically stuck to his back. She closed her eyes, buried her face within his sweaty hair, then went sleep.
Sara looked at everyone with warm eyes, "Let's return."
"Yeah," Alex nodded.
He used the system to throw all stuff into his inventory. He would check items and share them with the Deathwill Sisters back home. After those disappeared, he took a furtive glance at Sara's face.
Alex suddenly gave her a head pat, too, "Good work."
"You too," Sara smiled brightly, "I believed you could do it."
"…Thanks," Alex belatedly replied as Sara's smile was too dazzling.
Even though their relationship had significantly risen, Sara's beauty and genuine feelings could easily make him forget his surroundings. He stared in silence into her blue eyes.
Alex suddenly felt an urge to do something for Sara too. So far, Schnee took the spot in his clothes, and Stella naturally stuck to his back.
And since Alex had two hands free, he offered to princess carry Sara back home, "I ought to give an equal treatment to my lovely companions, right?"
"What about Schnee?" Sara asked; her eyes went down to look onto Alex's chest.
In his commander clothes, he had a lot of room where Schnee could laze around in her cat form. But immediately after Sara's eyes landed on him, Alex promptly took Schnee out of his clothes.
He then passed her to Sara.
Schnee opened her eyes lazily, "Sigh… Even though my big sis has a chest as big as mine, I will fall off. And I can't be below those two peaks, can I?" She sighed again.
Alex and Sara gazed at her, each with different eyes.
Then, Alex promptly took Sara into his arms. She no longer wore her armor but just simple clothes, making her lighter and easier to hold.
Schnee landed on Sara's stomach. She curled up and went to sleep.
With three girls on him, Alex laughed out loud, "I am glad all of you are so unique. I also never expected to be in such a situation."
"Me too," Sara replied softly. She pressed her forehead gently onto Alex's body, then whispered, "Can't say I don't like it… I might also be exaggerating… But after today, I feel like I've truly become a big sister."
"Have you led that weird cat and lazy sister against four bosses?" Alex gently asked.
Sara laughed, "Yes, I have. I could use my epic skill, so I felt more confident than ever. Hehe."
"Good for you," Alex laughed too.
No-one stopped him, not even one black wolf. They all had scattered in all directions because of the four bosses and Wolfen Demon's fall. They were just too scared to approach Alex's party, and it would take at least one day before they returned to normal.
After a little talk, Sara closed her eyes and unknowingly went to sleep. With three sisters sleeping on him, Alex carried on with silent steps.
At last, he noticed his Deathwill Castle on the horizon. A few minutes later, he was before the massive gates that opened slowly as if grandly welcoming the hero.
The sound of those gates notified Celia and Ubo.
Both of them rushed toward Alex and his party.
"They really returned today!" Celia shouted gleefully.
Her friend, Ubo, woofed. He once again felt amazed about Alex and others.
But as Celia noticed her mother in Alex's arms, her heart stopped. She flinched and trembled, looking at Alex with tearful eyes, "Mom?"
Alex quickly shouted, "Everyone is sleeping."
Celia's little heart immediately became warmer. Her fears crumbled, and happiness climbed its way toward her puffy cheeks.
She smiled, "Alex! You are so strong! Hehe!"
"Haha! Who else, other than me, can hold three beauties at the same time?" Alex laughed out loud.
Ubo woofed again. His young heart was excited.
Celia pointed at Schnee, "Schnee is in her cat form, so she is not the beauty now! And she is sleeping on mom's stomach!"
"You can't be this mean, Celia," Alex faked some tears, which brought cheerful laughter from his little friend.
Everyone returned home safely.
