Chapter 56: A Terrifying Concept
After a good bonding ti, Alex and Sara were forced to talk about the serious matters again.
This ti, Sara spoke first, “The hungry demons… We know that stronger ones are lurking around. We know that the hungry demons we have been fighting against are the forr masters of this realm.”
The hungry demons’ specialty was to be similar to players.
They could die and respawn, then continue their journey. Their leveling system was tricky, and no one had proper intel about it. Still, Sara and the other girls had never noticed their enemies leveling up, which was highly reassuring information.
After Alex’s appearance, the hungry demons beca stronger.
That was the reality.
Alex narrowed his eyes, “Your father dealt with so of them… He might’ve left a lock on them or sothing like that… Now that I am here, those hungry demons slowly regain their strength… What do you think?”
“It sounds plausible…” Sara couldn’t refute Alex’s theory.
Alex sighed, “Wolfen Demon… He forced Stella to use her Ultimate Skill… Haven’t those demons been a challenge in my absence?”
“They were much stronger, but we never allowed ourselves to be careless. That’s why we did a splendid job,” Sara replied.
She had always told her daughter the sa, but frankly, those battles had beco more demanding each day.
She sighed and told Alex precisely those words, “Their strength is returning too fast. It’s hard.” She then broadly smiled, “But not for too long, right?”
“Right,” Alex nodded.
It was ti to work as a family.
And by that, Alex ant that he would participate in those hungry demons hunts. However, he would be the family head. In other words, the party master.
He would invite the Deathwill Sisters to his party, then hunt hungry demons as the party of four.
Now that he knew that he could help NPCs level up significantly, it was ti to lessen the burden and help the girls with their levels.
Alex genuinely wanted to help them.
But he also had another reason.
“Battle Spirit. Your father made a spirit of himself. Do you know about it?” Alex asked seriously.
Sara closed her eyes and recalled her father’s strength.
His Battle Spirit technique was one of his original creations. It was an excellent technique that he had created by overcoming various challenges. However, that skill wouldn’t see the daylight if it weren’t for his relationship with a peculiar cat woman.
Sara didn’t know about the cats and their help.
But she knew well her father’s spirit, “He created a battle spirit of himself. That spirit blended with his body, utterly concealing its origins. Father’s strength rose significantly, and his swordsmanship remained the sa, yet more powerful.
Since you have received the sa skill, how do you plan to use it?” Sara asked without hiding her curiosity.
Alex nodded gravely, “The hungry demons. I want to turn my battle spirit into one of them.”
The Battle Spirit was a powerful but also highly versatile skill.
It could beco anything. However, each skill had its risks. If Alex developed a powerful battle spirit to assist him in battles like a pet, its life would be at risk. Once killed, Alex would need to create a new one.
But a hungry demon would respawn like a player.
Nonetheless, after thinking about it in school and in his free ti, Alex had reached a different conclusion.
“The hungry demons hide a secret behind their abilities. If I learn that secret, I will be able to turn you into full-fledged players, right? You will be able to respawn and be as reckless as us,” Alex said, what had been on his mind for a while.
Hearing that theory and ambition, Sara shivered from fear. She stood up, pushing her chair behind her. It fell off with a loud bang.
Her eyes trembled too, revealing her emotions, “T-That’s…”
“It’s a terrifying concept. It’s also sothing I won’t learn at any ti soon. To be candid, it sounds so impossible I might not be able to do it at all… I don’t want to make an empty promise like a certain soone, but I still wanted to share it with you,” Alex didn’t find Sara’s reaction weird.
But the more he thought about it, the more he wanted to try it.
At last, he stood up, “I have the legendary class. I shouldn’t think whether I can do it or not… The legendary class is… well, considered the top class in our world. If soone has to do it, it’s . I will allow myself to get muddled with confidence, and I will go for it. It’s not a promise, but my resolution.”
Sara gazed dazed at Alex.
Perhaps, she had already fallen too much, or maybe Alex’s words were so exciting that her body heated up. Nonetheless, her heart pounded loudly, and she felt attracted to him once again.
She took a seat and replied, “I will support that resolution. You have my full support, Alex.”
“Thanks. Let’s work forward the greater future together, Sara,” Alex broadly smiled.
In his mind, he thought about the closest ones to him. It was Sara, Celia, Remia, Stella, and Schnee. Those peculiar NPCs had shown various emotions to him; they were the sa as him.
He wanted them to continue living in this world and not beco bags of experience for players. He wanted their future to be safe and bright.
But as Alex had thoughts that were too innocent, Sara had a different image in her head. She conjured that image based on Alex’s terrifying concept’s potential.
In that image, Alex had an army of immortal NPCs. And since he was a player, he could create a guild or beco associated with an army of immortal players.
The player who wielded those two powers could wreak too much havoc in their abundant world.
But then, Alex spoke about his resolution. And as he did, Sara saw the Deathwill Kingdom under his rule.
It was the kingdom where many races lived. The sun and the moon lived in harmony, just like its residents.
Everyone was happy here too.
Sara didn’t know what scenario would happen in the future. Although she had an inkling that the latter scene was more probable, no one could tell the end. People changed too much, and even one event could be life-changing.
She was the perfect example. Sara had never thought she would find a cure for her broken heart, let alone that cure to be a man much younger than her.
Nonetheless, it had happened. And things could only progress.
‘No matter what future lies ahead, if my little daughter calls you a father, you will have and my whole support,’ Sara whispered to herself.
Inwardly, she had a feeling that such a day would co fast enough. She couldn’t tell why, but the precognition was a real thing.
Nonetheless, Celia was and always would be the most important.
Sara smiled brightly and stood up, “I will speak with Schnee. I will make her join your party and work with us. You should take a look at Stella and take care of her. Don’t hold back and hug her from .”
“Sure,” Alex chuckled.
Sara bid him farewell and slowly went toward Schnee’s room.
The reason she was slow was that she glanced toward her minimap, which was her unique skill.
On that map, Sara saw two dots.
