Chapter 390: It takes one dong to stop the volcano

Alexander actually lost consciousness.

It was a rare event of him losing all his mana, his HP dropping to just one point!

"Alexander! Wake up! If you wake up, we will prepare an oyakodon for you tonight, in Stella's room no less!" Meiya sang promises with her urgent voice, genuinely worried about Alexander.

For some reason, she thought Alex would wake up instantly after hearing oyakodon. In Meiya's mind, she just believed that Alex had been stimulated too much about it before coming here.

"Aren't men with harem horny bastards?" Meiya uttered with tears flooding her eyes, asking her daughter this question. Stella was more composed, not saying anything while tending to her fiance's wounds.

Of course, Meiya was doing the same, but her lips didn't close.

"If you don't wake up, I won't give you oyakodon!" Meiya shut her eyes tightly after those words, trembling from coursing emotions within her. She was happy that Alexander stood up for her and Stella, but what if his pride was hurt?

Meiya was too little with Alex to properly understand him, so she didn't know that Alex was actually impressed and respectful of Danielle's strength.

He wouldn't be hurt by losing to her or the fact that a woman beat him.

"You will serve him oyakodons frequently, girl. Whatever that is. If that's something he likes, I will ensure my good in-law gets enough of it," Danielle came out from behind, looking fine as if she hadn't fought at all.

From her words alone, Stella and Meiya could tell that Danielle saw Alexander in a good light despite all that had happened and his energies.

Meiya turned around, staring at her mother with narrowed eyes, "Did you have to slap him down to one health point?!"

"Yes. And I will slap you two now," Danielle instantly cut her daughter's anger, extending her hand to slap Meiya and Stella's cheeks.

Her power was much weaker than what Alex had received.

"I have taught my in-law how to slap for his good presents. Shouldn't you two be happy?" Danielle questioned before lifting the two gorgeous girls up. All of them looked alike, like sisters due to their long lifespans.

But as Danielle tightly hugged them, it became clear who was the oldest and the most emotional.

"I've missed you two…" Danielle whispered with faint tears forming around her beautiful eyes. She shut them close tightly, feeling the warmth and safety of her daughter and granddaughter.

Swathed in those emotions, Meiya and Stella couldn't move. They started feeling guilty, tears unconsciously gathering around their eyes.

Red and painful handprints on their cheeks no longer hurt, for Danielle conveyed her emotions toward them.

But a few minutes later, Danielle's volcano mode activated again, "Since Alexander fought against me with all he got, I was right!

You two immature and stupid girls! Have you enjoyed toying with my heart?!"

A few more slaps followed.

"Ugh…" Alex woke up in a comfy bed, opening his eyes slowly. He lifted himself languorously, recalling all events that had happened in the Winged Realm so far.

And then, he saw a man on his right, sitting on the chair with a pipe between his lips.

"Master Auberon…" Alex whispered, then froze, for his in-law slightly revealed his eyes, pinning him with immense power.

"You can call me father or just Auberon," he said before returning to his chilling mode.

Alex grinned like a kid before leaving the bed, thankful for the man's chilling atmosphere. Alex also felt like he would have a good connection with his in-law, just from that short eye contact during his talk.

"Danielle is in a shock right now as Stella revealed her goals. A mother and housewife… The latter left her speechless, for Danielle hails from a noble household. She never did any work other than taking care of her flowers.

She was perplexed and lost when Stella asked some questions.

Meiya learned some stuff, so she ended up teasing her mother.

And then, the volcano erupted…" Auberon laughed, for he was fond of that volcano mode of his first wife.

He explained that these three were currently talking about coffee and the coffee machine, learning about it. Stella led the talk, for she was knowledgeable about stuff from Earth.

Alex listened with a smile plastered on his face, "Father… I have a question. Do you have a way to control or stop the volcano mode?"

"I do," Auberon stood up, preparing to leave the room with his in-law, "One of them is to take her forcefully to my room, then show my bare self."

He smirked before turning around, guiding Alex outside.

The young man could only gawk at the man's back… Alex just saw and knew this man for a short while, but that was enough to know one thing.

His in-law was indeed a cool man.

"Ah! I like tea more, but coffee might become my thing!"

"Ah! I like wine more, but coffee might become my thing!"

Meiya and Danielle commented after drinking the coffee that Stella had prepared for them. The sloth girl glanced at her mother oddly, for Meiya had drunk coffee from Earth already.

But Stella couldn't remember whether it was the same coffee, so she no longer dwelled on it.

Her mother's emotions were genuine.

At that time, Alex and Auberon entered the room. They had a good short talk about Stella's family from the realm and their culture. It was pretty formal and understandable, so Alex wasn't worried.

But Auberon added a few words about things Alex had to be careful about.

Danielle smiled at them before inviting them to the table, "Black wings stood out, Alexander. I know you are a good boy, but those surely will rile up some other houses. You must prepare to deal with a few people just because you own these."

Meiya butted in, "You saw that Alexander can mix holy and evil energies perfectly, even without us. If he showcases it to everyone, won't that be enough?"

"It won't," Danielle replied, adding, "And you should know well why it won't."

Seeing his daughter's confused face, Auberon said, "Every tribe with innate holiness believes their race has a grand purpose.

A mission will change the world or move it in a better direction.

Until we fulfill that purpose, we can't allow for our realm to cease to exist."

Danielle added, "Our realm has never plucked out wings of freedom from our people.. They are free to mate and live whenever they want.

But in Alexander's case, I fear everyone will try to kick him away from our realm, particularly after that noticeable change."

"That noticeable change?" Meiya asked, finally recalling her childhood friend guarding the grand doors, "What's happening, mother?"
