Chapter 339: A vast land with houses
Celia became a human girl.
She lost her dullahan characteristics, which had bothered her for a long time before she thoroughly grasped them.
She no longer lost her 'head' while bowing or casually running. Thus, when Celia no longer could turn headless, she felt somewhat empty.
It was like all her work was for nothing!
Alex laughed, "It's just for this world. Everyone is human here, so you must become a human girl too. It will probably change in the future."
"Okay…" Celia bit her lips, looking down. She couldn't accept the situation as easily, but as she looked around, finding new items and a different world, her eyes sparkled, and curiosity took over her.
She climbed a new peculiar chair, "It's so different!"
"It's a gaming chair," Alex explained, showing the features of the comfortable chair! He pushed the chair's back low, turning it into a 'bed', then showed other features such as changing height.
Celia had fun while others looked at them warmly.
"You are just a weak human girl now, Celia. So don't try anything weird or dangerous," Sara reminded her daughter, who was turning bolder as the time passed. She saw a dangerous dog outside and wanted to hug him!
But a four years old girl hugging an unknown pitbull seemed quite dangerous, right?
Follow current on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCelia saluted, "Ok, mom!"
"I will prepare a breakfast," Remia offered, leaving the couple alone. And as Schnee felt like a third wheel, she decided to show off some of her knowledge.
She took the mouse, clicked on the popular search engine, then typed some anime for children about magical princesses, "Look here. Good aunt has prepared the best show for you."
Celia's eyes twinkled as she saw the show. She climbed up the chair, then watched the show, not blinking.
Alex and Sara looked at Schnee with squinted eyes, making her go 'te-he'. She took the little dullahan onto her lap, watching the show together.
It was fine, though. It wasn't like Alex planned to show everything to Celia in one go. Besides, his mother and father were still at work, so they weren't home.
There was also no way Celia would watch anime all day with Schnee, right? They would show around the house in an hour, right?
Alex looked into Sara's eyes, "Right?"
"I think so…" Sara whispered, quite unsure, recalling the article about children getting addicted to smartphones and technology.
She herself liked to surf through news and social media, so Sara understood that her little girl might fall prey to technology soon enough!
Sara added with an awkward smile, "I think it will be best for us to buy her a phone with parental controls."
"Sure," Alex said, fishing out a phone from his pocket, "I also planned to check house offers, so I will do it in the meantime."
"Eh? You want to buy a house?" Sara asked, blinking as she didn't expect that.
Alex explained with a smile, "We need a big house for everyone. I don't mind buying a vast land with many houses on it, so everyone has enough room for each other.
I think it's time for it… We want to enjoy our lives to the fullest in both worlds.
I don't want to wait for our work in real life to get lucrative enough to get a house and pay bills. I will use Deathwill Castle's assets, exchange money, and have a good life with all of you on Earth.
Celia will have a lot of fun too… Of course, I won't give up on pursuing some career on Earth. I think making videos and editing them will be fun," Alex explained his plans for the next month.
The more he learned about the world and its origins, the more he wanted to already start having a good family time. He was scared that the situation in a few years would turn too dangerous and that no one would have time for each other.
Sara nodded after hearing his thoughts. Schnee also had reared her ears, listening carefully.
Both girls understood and agreed with Alex.
Thus, he exchanged money from the game world and went on a shopping spree!
Remia returned with breakfast, taking Schnee's spot.
She had the little dullahan on her lap, feeding her while watching the show together with her. Schnee decided that she would become more serious with her future on Earth, so she went to her room to start her plan of leveraging virgins.
Her beauty surely would strike many fools.
Sara and Alex were in the same room, picking up phones and looking over houses together.
"This one should be good for her," Alex showed an offer about some phone. Sara wasn't so experienced with it, so she just searched for 'parental control' features.
Follow current on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhen she spotted it, she gave an okay to her husband.
Alex stood up, going toward his daughter, who was enjoying her time with her aunt and anime, "Daddy will buy you this. You will be able to watch princesses even in the bed."
"Okay! Thank you, daddy!" Celia replied with her cheeks full, not really knowing anything about phones.
She only cared about anime and whether she would be able to watch it. When Alex said it was indeed the case, she accepted the phone wholeheartedly.
Alex also understood his mistake, forgetting that Celia indeed knew nothing yet about the technology and other stuff.
"Daddy!" Celia extended her hand for Alex's sleeve, stopping him, "When will grandma and grandpa come?"
"Soon," Alex brightly smiled, patting her hair.
And a few hours later, when Celia felt like taking a nap, the sound of the car's engine rang out! Alex's parents had returned home.
"Grandparents!" Celia's eyes snapped, shimmering with excitement!
She jumped off the chair, running toward the main doors. She somehow found a way; even if she couldn't locate Alex's parents in a way she located him in the Deathwill Castle.
When the doors opened, Lavinia and Harvey entered the house. The former was quite exhausted, wanting to just drop dead on the sofa.
But when Celia extended her hands, shouting dangerous words, Lavinia's body shuddered with unfamiliar feeling, giving her energy.
"Grandma!" Celia's big eyes twinkled.
Lavinia and Harvey stood as if frozen. Only one of them was stupefied enough to not move.
But as energy went through her, Lavinia soon exclaimed, "You must be Celia! You are finally free from the government's hands!"
Alex squinted his eyes when he heard those words, "It's an excuse straight from some movie, isn't it?"
Sara blushed.
