Chapter 125

Chapter 125: The queen

“Wasn’t there something you wanted to talk about, Olivia?” Alex asked his girlfriend after putting Celia on the bed.

It was already late, so she should have been sleeping.

Olivia stared at him with peculiar feelings.

Alex could see that she wanted to talk about something important, but nothing came out. He also didn’t want to press her further. He believed she would tell him at the right moment.

Olivia shook her head, “Later.”

Alex nodded, “It’s already too late. I will spend some time in the game, then go sleep too. Good night, Olivia.”

“Good night, my handsome,” Olivia spoke faintly; her voice was particularly charming.

The couple parted ways in their usual way.

Alex headed to the bath, where he would be alone for some time. He wanted to check his stats after that spectacular battle. He also wanted to check more of the Undead Quest.

He took his clothes off, then hopped into the bath.

The Royal Bath was great for relaxation.

Alex sank into the hot water, then opened the system.

[Your body has developed a little sword mana.]

[You can not develop more of the sword mana.]

[Sword Mana: 100/100]

[You can use this mana for your basic attacks or swordsmanship skills.]

Alex would have to test it out soon.

He didn’t know how many of that mana one slash would take. He also didn’t know about the mana cost on skills… But knowing how powerful that skill was, Alex was sure it would be at least one skill and three slashes.

If it were less, this Sword Mana would become the trump card he would save for the last moments.

“In the future, I will replace at least half of my mana with the sword mana. I still haven’t given up on my dream to wield magic!” Alex laughed loudly, as if sure that someone could listen to him.

[The Undead Quest(Legendary)]

[You can create the basic soul through your skill, Battle Spirit. You lack the skills to control the soul and create the flesh and bones.]

Out of all the required stuff, Alex had his Battle Spirit skill. After Elias Deathwill visited a peculiar place in Schnee’s clan, that skill came to fruition. He created the spirit of himself, which turned the skill S-ranked.

For this legendary quest, Alex would have to get skills of the same grade.

“No way Elias Deathwill’s Successor Quests would give me that on a plate… I will have to do a more profound research,” Alex nodded, “As players level up, Tom should get more information about the world. He will surely help me.”

Alex closed his eyes, more or less finishing his check-up.

He enjoyed the bath, then bid farewell to everyone.

It was a time to sleep before the fun tomorrow!

Before Alex brought other girls to the forest fairies’ capital, he and Remia needed to speak with their queen.

Besides that, Remia had been absent for quite some time. Her bodyguards had been worried about her as she never left Alex’s house.

Some had weird thoughts, but that was not significant.

At last, they had come out.

Remia called them through the shadows, “I will bring Alex to my mother. She wanted to speak with him, so I see no objections. But please, notify her.”

One of the bodyguards nodded before disappearing from the view.

The others disappeared slightly after.

Remia and Alex were left alone.

Alex looked around the capital, “Is that guy still here?”

“Yes,” Remia nodded sadly.

That villain still had his business in the forest fairies’ capital. He had also been attacking players they had invited to their leveling grounds. Many of them had received unique quests to kill Dollar.

But that guy and his skills were so odd that no one could deal with him properly. Worse, he just could die and return.

Alex’s heart grew complicated. Trouble crept onto his face as he wanted to say something to Remia.

She noticed his expression, “I also want Celia to have fun with kids her age.”

Alex faintly smiled, “Thank you.”

He had been bothered by the fact that he leveraged Remia’s help significantly, yet he couldn’t help her people. Of course, Alex planned to hide in one of the leveling grounds already and face Dollar again.

But after the villain’s last failure, would he recklessly attack him?

Alex narrowed his eyes, then unconsciously grasped Remia’s hand. He clenched her little hand tightly, and they both went to the biggest tree, looking like lovers.

[Yumia Leaf Lv. 100 HP:??? MP: ???]

Alex faced the queen.

Her beauty naturally compelled him to look at her. She had similar vibes to Sara, probably due to being a mother. And as the queen and royal blood, Yumia was the most beautiful forest fairy in the world.

She had donned herself a thin white dress. Alex swore it was transparent in some places as he could see a lot of her legs, more than an outsider should. Her top was also abundant, making her thin dress struggle to cover her chest.

Her hair was short, though. In a bob-cut, the queen revealed her peculiar ears with sparkling earrings.

She smiled at Alex, “At last, you bothered to come here.”

Remia had told Alex about the queen’s wish long before the events. She wasn’t wrong to tease or feel wronged as she was the queen.

All players wanted to meet her, yet Alex postponed the visit until now.

For that, he apologized, “A lot has been happening behinds the scenes.”

“Mom! That was a little too rude!” Remia chimed in.

“Contrary to a certain someone, you look more pleasing,” Yumia ignored her daughter’s remark as she could see through Remia’s heart, “You actually came here.” She stressed the last words.

Then, Yumia dropped her smile, “Let’s save pleasantries for later. Alexander, my daughter, has been attacked by the player who the world deems a villain. I want you to tell me about villains and what you think of that killer hiding in my lands.

I will reward you for every valuable information,” Yumia offered the quest to Alex.

He shook his head, “I don’t need any reward. I would rather become friends with everyone here, including you, Mrs. Yumia.”

The queen narrowed her eyes slightly.

Alex then said, “I’m not so familiar with heroes and villains, but they tend to gather in big or small guilds. I believe that Dollar is a selfish guy from my short exchange with him. He prioritizes his gain.

As much as I don’t want to say it, Dollar has only managed to kill normal civilians and a few stronger forest fairies. His goal is not done yet.

And because he hadn’t called for any help, he must be searching for something of an immense value here.

For that, he needs royal blood. I believe he attacked Remia because he wanted her blood or maybe even her body,” Alex said what he had thought about during his walk to the queen’s tree.

The queen nodded, “I reckon I know what he’s looking for.”

“Really?” Remia asked.

“He would need royal blood for that,” Yumia closed her eyes, “Not just a blood of one royal birth. He needs more. Therefore, he will either give up or call more villains for his help.”

Yumia was confident in her royal family. She believed no one would die or drop a little blood, particularly after increasing the bodyguards and the quality of their items.
