Chapter 344: Offer

"Whaaa!" Celia hid behind the table, peeking at her father and aunt kissing each other. Her eyes sparkled with excitement, for that was a scene straight from the book!

Similar to the hug with her mother from the past, the scene between Alex and Stella was much better than the drawn picture.

Celia held the table with a broad smile!

She was so happy!

"Daddy! When will you turn mommy into fiance?!" Celia came out when Stella wrapped her arms around Alex, resting her little head on his shoulder. She didn't mind little dullahan coming out with such a question.

Kids wanted their parents to be the happiest. And there was no jealousy or anger in Celia's words. She was genuinely happy and curious about the future.

Alex glanced at his daughter, then replied, "In the future. I can't just propose like that, you know? It has to be a special time."

It would also be weird if he started confessing every day.

Celia nodded, feeling like she understood her daddy, "Congratulations! Can I tell everyone?!"

"Let Stella do it," Alex replied, patting his girl's hair, then added, "You two can work together. I'm sure aunt Stella won't mind."

"I won't," Stella replied, her face still on Alex's shoulder.

And in such a way, Alex and Stella's day ended. They went to sleep together in bed, tightly cuddling with each other. Celia was between them, for she wanted to be a part of that happiness.

Her aunt didn't kick her away, so Celia found a room between them.

[Deathwill Castle.]

Alex was already done with moving Stella's stuff. She was also back in the Deathwill Castle, meeting forest fairies training in the barracks.

Everyone paid respect to Alexander Deathwill's wife. Stella felt like she could get many servants should she use her charm. But she didn't go for it, doing responsibilities on her own.

Alex visited a room where he created his black skeletons.

There were forty-seven of them now. Three of them became perfect zombies, whose curves and snow skin would turn many girls jealous.

They stood respectfully with their red hairs silently reaching their bottoms. Their red eyes remained stoic, only shining in Alex's presence.

Their curves were wrapped in maid clothes that Deathwill Kingdom's servants used to wear in the past. Those were black, a perfect contrast to their milky skin.

"No personality… The creations that solely work on instincts," Alex whispered while gazing into their eyes. Although those shone as if having intellect, the zombies were closer to genuine undead without any personality.

Alex opened his system.

[The Fallen Angel's Servants(SSS) - A skill created from the Battle Spirit and The Undead Quest combination. You can create high-quality servants whose souls can evolve through devouring conscious existences to develop their own consciousness.

The knowledge of the soul grave-keeper allows your servants to evolve further, creating their own hearts and flesh.]

[The Servants' lives are tightly connected to your soul.]

It was true that those servants were closer to the zombies. However, their evolution path would bring them closer to perfect existences like Erin, turning them into living being no different from Alex and others in Deathwill Castle.

Their hearts lacked proper souls with consciousness. However, they would be able to develop it by killing others.

Their flesh was also different from the undead, for it wasn't rotten. Their snow-white skin resulted from Alex's race and Roy's demons. Those nightmare creatures had inferior skin to the demons that Erik and Roy summoned first.

Yet, it was the same material.

Because of that, those three girls were even closer to Alex. Their flesh was made from the antagonists' demons, their bones black from Alex's Wrath!

Their evolution path had immense potential!

"It's not a coincidence that skeletons with women's bones evolved first. I am fated to be surrounded by girls," Alex glanced at other skeletons. Some had male bones, and their progress was significantly weaker.

Everything could be blamed on Alex's class.

He still would develop a proper army, though, "I can't develop feelings for those servants."

Alex would have difficulty sacrificing servants with developed consciousness, for he would treat them like friends.

Thus, he formed a plan.

BANG! BANG! BANG!

The forty-seven skeletons crumbled, their wrath gathering around Alex's palm, becoming a floating orb. It looked like a black hole ready to devour everything around.

Alex took out the Bone Seal from his castle's treasury, picking up bones from dangerous four-legged beasts. The bones coalesced into skeleton monsters in the blink of an eye.

He then fed them with his wrath, turning them black.

"You three will be the first commanders of those servants," Alex said, his eyes fixed on the three gorgeous beauties.

He also thought about names for them, "Soria, Khayla, Divina."

The ladies didn't answer, for they didn't really have a clear consciousness. But in the future, they would evolve into genuine threats and lovely servants for their best master.

Alex smiled, feeling like his job was done.

After he left the room, the three commanders closed their eyes. The four-legged beasts dropped low onto the floor, seemingly in slumber.

Alex went toward the castle's prison, thinking about his plan for his servants.

He would continue creating commanders that would lead his undead army. They would have a clear consciousness developed from killing and eating others. He wouldn't mind creating a bond with them.

But other undead would be disposable entities. To make things easier, Alex made them after monster.

And that was basically his plan, something close to what Alex had in mind some time ago.

[You have entered the Deathwill Castle's Prison.]

Erin was already here, researching Alex's Black Feather, for it was a new skill evolved from the bloodrunes. She also had to study Wrath Intent, so she spent most of her time in the prison office.

But in style close to Celia's, Erin came out to greet her Master, dropping all her responsibilities to see him, "Good morning, Master!"

"Morning," Alex nodded at her, then gathered everyone's attention by letting out his black feathers, his eyes shining red, "Former vassals of Elias Deathwill…

I have an offer for you…" Alex whispered like a boss, his words reaching the ears of peculiar hungry demons.
