Chapter 200

Chapter 200: Celia for the rescue!

Alex needed time from everyone else.

He didn’t pick up his phone, open his social media, or even surfed through the net. He just looked around the hotel, wandering it. He also went some shopping, trying the foreign country’s cuisine.

And that was basically all.

“What’s wrong with me?” Alex uttered back in his hotel room.

In this modern world, people break up daily. Even pairs made in heaven broke up after years of a good relationship. That was normal nowadays.

It was the first time Alex had broken up with someone. He didn’t know how it would feel. At first, he felt sadness, grief, disappointment… He felt disgusted with himself as he had neglected Olivia and hurt her.

But after some time, that feeling subsided. Alex accepted the reality, feeling as if he was ready to move on.

Was it because he was already an adult? He finished school, so he had many options ahead of him. He always could find something to forget the pain… And he was also not alone either.

“I really believe that the break will help us… No matter how long we will be separated, those years of relationship will bring us together…” Alex whispered his inward thoughts, not knowing whether he should laugh or cry.

He picked up the phone for the first time.

He ignored all messages and calls as Olivia had shared their breakup with her friends. That was fine as Alex surely would tell it to his homies and Deathwill Sisters too. It would be stupid to hide that.

He typed a message to Olivia…

[Alex: Even if we aren’t a couple, you can always count on me. No matter what happens and to what extent you will need me, I will arrive by your side to help you.]

He also wanted to add that everyone surely would miss her. He particularly thought about Celia, who had gotten used to Olivia’s cuddling.

“I think I need Celia the most now,” Alex sighed.

After a few days, Alex returned back home.

His parents were still at work, so he simply unpacked some stuff in his house. He then opened the capsule, entering it slowly.

The Avander World welcomed him in with open arms.

[You have appeared in the Deathwill Castle.]

Alex immediately opened his minimap. As the castle’s owner, he could see people in his castle. He noticed Celia and Stella together in the study room.

He scurried here, hoping to see them both.

After opening the doors, Alex noticed the little dullahan running toward him with raised arms. His daughter had already noticed his presence.

“Daddy!” Celia shouted happily.

Alex smiled faintly, wrapping his arms around her. He lifted her up, holding her like a father. This time, however, Alex tightly cuddled with her. He buried his face in her blue hair, not letting her go.

Celia felt that something was off, “Has someone hurt you, Daddy?”

Alex replied, “Olivia and I broke up.”

“Broke up?” Celia needed some time to understand those words. She then parted her lips in a shock, not believing her daddy!

How could it be?!

Olivia was really in love with him, and she also liked to cuddle with her. How many times did Celia run away from Olivia?! It was fun, too.

Out of a sudden, even Celia grew sad.

Alex explained, “That’s because we live in different worlds. She couldn’t accept a few things about me… And you know, my daughter…” Alex looked outside the window, staring at the dark sky unique to this land.

He sighed, “I feel like I’m from the fantasy world anyway. It might be better for both of us… I still hope that we will get together, though.”

Although it might feel weird, Alex had grown too much in the fantasy world. He felt like he matured the best here and that this was the place he belonged to… He believed that his rules and principles meant more here.

And more than anything, he simply couldn’t give up on everyone else… Now that he believed everyone was real, Alex’s goal to bring Celia and others to Earth had received more sense.

He really wanted her to study with her peers and learn from the best. He wanted to see Deathwill Sisters in modern clothes, have them appear in a peaceful world, and introduce them to his parents.

But as he realized those thoughts, Alex made his usual comical expression.

Stella said what he thought out loud, “That’s a contradiction.”

“I guess…” Alex sighed, “I see more future in the Avander World, but I also like Earth and some of its rules…

In the end, I like both worlds, I guess? Each world has its pros and cons, and I naively want the good things from both worlds to apply to me.”

Stella explained, “You can move between two worlds… So if you are desperate, you will find a girl on the other side too. A girl that accepts you and us.”

“As someone who feels like from another world, but lived on Earth for all my life, I want two worlds to merge. It would be the best for me,” Alex said, answering all Stella’s questions while leaving Celia confused.

She didn’t understand her daddy.

However, as her father didn’t let her go for too long, Celia knew that he needed her the most. It was her time to help him.

Celia lifted her hand, “I will draw a self-made card!”

“Thank you,” Alex chuckled.

Celia wasn’t done yet, “I will prepare a tea party and invite everyone! I will also read a book for daddy!”

Alex thanked his daughter a few times more as she had already written a whole schedule for today for him.

He surely would forget about his pain with her by his side.

Stella was also quite conscious of her recent words, “Is it because of me that you two broke up?”

After all, she said that Alex always could break up if things didn’t go well with Remia.

Alex shook his head, “It’s a difference between the worlds. That’s all.”

Stella nodded, feeling a little better.
