Chapter 413: Rest Hour
After the competition on Earth, Alex spent the rest of his day with Celia and Veronica. These two had returned from a school where Celia acted like a big sister, showing around the new environment and other stuff.
These two were kids and didn’t need anything other than school and hobbies. Even though they carried authorities, Alex ensured they had enough time for outdoor fun.
He also put a blind eye on Celia and her way of solving homework through her phone, which was her secretly holding a phone to search for all answers on the popular search engine.
She then furtively glanced at Veronica — they both nodded — and Celia secretly passed the phone with answers to the winged girl.
Alex acted as if he had seen nothing, yet these two daughters knew that the daddy was an ally.
The following days were also eventful. Alex had the visit from Master Auberon, his presence turning the whole castle silent. He didn’t like the atmosphere outside the castle as it belonged to the King Of The Underground, the infamous madman.
But the castle overall had a pleasant vibe.
He tested barracks and was immensely pleased with their function and rewards.
Remia and Stella had also leveled up to high levels, their bodies going through significant progress. It wouldn’t take long for Remia to tame and wholly absorb the elven bloodline.
Perhaps, she would find their realm soon.
Olivia also followed Stella and Meiya to the winged realm. She caught the attention of Madame Danielle, who found her likable. In a way, Olivia reminded Danielle of her daughters, so that wasn’t so weird.
These two went for some training together. It would take a while for some results to sprout between them, but everyone was curious about what Olivia would become later.
Sara was still in the Dullahan Kingdom. Of course, she was all fine, for there weren’t any communication problems. She had to deal with stuff that only a royal descendant could, which was tightly connected to her.
Alex also had checked on his servants. He mixed the bones of winged prisoners with his three commanders; first, their bodies convulsed because of the new changes within them.
The new bones forced their flesh to partially turn divine, so their undead status no longer was the weakness against divine clans from higher realms.
Leftovers went to the demonic beasts who relished in the upgrade.
At last, Alex and Schnee decided to go to her realm!

“Will it be a long trip with challenges, or will we teleport here?” Alex asked as he stared at his kitty, who proudly took out a peculiar item from her soul. It was a treasure bound to her, so she would never lose it, and it would fade away with her death.
“The challenges await us in the realm,” Schnee smirked, quite impatient.
The item in her hand was a part of the divine cat realm.
Just by having it, Schnee could leave and return to her home without any problems. Of course, there were some limitations, but nothing stopped her from returning home.
Alex knew she had a way, for she had told him long ago that she could always return home; she just lacked treasures to pay for the shame caused by Elias Deathwill and her mother.
He hadn’t expected her to have the item bound to her soul, though.
“Because realms can’t exist without a world, there are many of these scattered across the continents. Players should soon find the way and start their expeditions there. Anyway, you have easier access because you have this sexy girl!” Schnee explained with palpable enthusiasm, wrapping her arms around Alex’s.
Her treasure, a piece that seemed broken, flashed with a bright light, then they teleported to the new world.
They appeared in the middle of the forest with small huts around them. After a few glances around, Alex noticed many cats curled up before the houses or on the branches.
Some bathed in the sun, and some preferred cold shadow.
Schnee nodded, “It’s a Rest Hour… I already feel like sleeping.”
Alex felt the same, his eyelids slowly dropping. He pulled himself back, for it was not a time to join other cats. He couldn’t turn into a cat, so if he were to slap as a human, the scene would make it seem like he owned all these cats.
He wanted to avoid that.
“I knew it would be Rest Hour, though,” Schnee smirked, then took Alex’s hand, “I will introduce you to grandpa! Come!” And she silently ran across all the huts and cats, her eyes twinkling with teases.
Alex felt like a poor grandpa’s resting time would turn into hell.

“He’s here,” a man with red eyes, a longbow on his back, and leather armor wrapped around his muscular body whispered in a dark room. He wasn’t alone, for many red eyes shone in the darkness.
The tanned beauty from the antagonist’s army, Yumi, clenched her sword, nodding to his words, “I’ve sensed him as well.”
In that peculiar space, a pair of eyes stood out, their color golden: “The time has come to execute the plan.”
The antagonists had many plans across the continents. But the three out of seven strongest antagonists had teamed up for this particular realm.
They seized many opportunities and allies in that realm. But more importantly, they knew Alexander Deathwill would soon visit that land. He had been in the Winged Realm already, opening the new arc for players.
He would soon do the same with the cats.
They couldn’t allow for that. Besides, Alexander Deathwill was the top priority to kill. They couldn’t murder him on Earth for two reasons. Yasir held the way to visit the Earth and told them that Harvey and other guardians had given up on their earthly lives, solely focusing on protecting players.
Thus, they needed a plan. And in the kitty’s realm, there was a room that would allow them to seal Alexander Deathwill for eternity.
And Alex would enter that place by himself together with his kitty.
“Help us lure him there faster.”
“I will,” the man with golden eyes replied with a smile.
