Alex’s face took an immediate change after Schnee’s message.
He replied immediately to her, telling her he would be back on Earth in a few seconds. He hastily closed the chat window, sliding on the system to get to the log-out button.
“I must log out. Something has happened to Stella,” Alex explained his sudden change briefly, for Erin looked at him confused.
Erin’s heart turned loyal after hearing his words, shedding her bashfulness and intoxication induced by a kiss, for she was a maid of the Deathwill Castle. Stella’s life and status were much higher than hers, and Erin was prepared to serve Alex’s wives other than just him.
“I will pick up other stuff and prepare a room for Wrath Sword Intent’s research, Master,” Erin bowed, quickly telling her plans to Master.
Alex nodded, clicking on the button. But as he looked at his right hand, his eyes widened, for he had a marriage ring here.
[The Fallen Goddess’ Marriage Ring has bound to your body and soul.]
Alex’s heart clenched because he didn’t want to have such uncontrollable power within him yet. Little did he know that his soul had already stored more than just his wrath.
Fortunately, the ring was sealed and dormant for now, so nothing wrong would happen.
And even if it was active, nothing could stop Alex from logging out to see Stella!
[You have logged out.]

Alex hurriedly opened his capsule.
When he left it, he saw that all his beloveds were there. Remia, Sara, and Schnee stood while staring at Stella, who remained unconscious in her capsule.
Alex bit his lips, clenching his hands, “What has happened?”
Schnee turned her eyes to him, explaining, for she was at that time with Stella. Other girls tended to their responsibilities.
Remia focused on her elven bloodline in the main garden.
Sara used her authority and castle’s wealth to help with Tomo Homie’s plan. She was in close contact with players and residents.
They would later catch up with levels, for Schnee and Stella had been grinding them like crazy.
“On our way out of the leveling ground, Stella suddenly stopped, grasping her chest. She instantly fell onto the ground like a rock, trembling before losing consciousness. It acted so fast that I didn’t know what to do.
I picked her up with the intent to teleport to the Deathwill Castle. That’s when she logged out on her own, returning to Earth,” Schnee explained, looking at Stella with concerned eyes.
Even though they had been arguing lately because of Stella’s scheme, their bond was tight and sweet, ready to fight and sacrifice their lives for each other.
They were sisters and rivals in love. When push came to shove, the girls would have each other’s backs and even support themselves in a bed should more girls join the harem.
Schnee, just like others, was troubled and nervous about Stella’s future. It didn’t seem like the white-haired girl would wake up soon.
And if she slept on Earth without someone overlooking her, her life would be soon at risk.
Alex whispered, caressing Stella’s sleepy face, “It can’t be a coincidence…”
“What do you mean?” Sara asked, her eyes shining as she saw that her beloved had a rough idea of what could’ve happened.
Alex nodded, sharing what had happened in the treasury. His sudden awakening of Wrath and the power to go against Elias Deathwill.
In a usual scenario, the girls would feel happy, for Alex developed a weapon and highly destructive power against their bastardly father.
That man plotted and used everyone. It would be simply beautiful if Alex could use his power against himself.
But as it connected to Stella, their eyes narrowed, glazed with worry.
Sara replied, “It is confirmed now, isn’t it? It’s the seven sins. They are everywhere, no matter what world.”
Earth and the Avander World had their own takes on those seven sins. In Sara’s world, there was naturally a religion, a realm where people believed in three divine entities.
Those people preached about seven sins, considering them unavoidable. They chided people who overdosed on one of those sins.
Sara continued, her eyes going through her beloveds as she mentioned the sins, “Pride, Lust, Sloth, and Wrath.
The other three should be our mothers. We are all valuable subjects that our father can easily lay his hands on. If Alex suddenly woke up Wrath through an object of an unknown origin and grade, our father must have sensed it.
He must be enraged that Alex touched more than he should…” Sara fixed her eyes on Stella, gently stroking her hair, “He probably couldn’t punish Alex, so he wounded Stella through the sin.”
While Remia widened her eyes in shock, staring at Stella pitifully, wanting to take some of her pain, and suffer in her stead, Alex and Schnee scrunched their faces with hatred, looking like two demons.
Sara calmly stood, keeping her feelings in check. She also felt wrath, but her peculiar circumstances, mainly stemming from her sin and responsible heart, allowed her to stay sane.
She fished out a phone from her pocket, calling a hospital, “I don’t think humans will be able to see through Stella’s symptoms. But if she doesn’t wake up today, they will help her survive her coma.”
After those words, Sara left the room to speak appropriately and quietly with a medical dispatcher.
Alex whispered, staring at Stella with incredulous eyes, “Coma?”
He couldn’t believe it.
He wouldn’t see Stella in the morning, he wouldn’t see her greeting him with a lovely smile only reserved for him, he wouldn’t be able to hug and spend time with her…
Stella wouldn’t be able to continue her quest as a housewife too. She looked so happy while becoming a part of Alex’s family and overcoming her difficulties to keep responsibilities in check.
She also wouldn’t be able to visit Celia and be a good aunt.
Alex looked down, his head hanging low, “Elias Deathwill… I… I want to kill you.”
A marriage ring on Alex’s finger flickered mysteriously.
