While all those events around him, Alex faced the worst gaming experience.

Nektor was too strong.

[Nektor ???? Lv. 57 HP:??? MP:???]

His stats were higher, and his experience more abundant. He topped Alex in so many areas it was simply bullying.

And in a world where players could respawn, NPCs found the most pleasure in the bullying.

After all, if they killed a player, he would respawn and continue getting stronger somewhere else.

But if they bullied him and shamed him to oblivion, there was a high chance they would implant a genuine fear within the players' hearts. They would make them genuinely fear their race and keep them away from them.

Nektor had more than just imposing fear.

He had been venting out his frustration on Alex, "I have asked you something!"

Nektor kicked Alex's stomach, sending him flying.

After Alex landed on his back, a mouthful of blood ran away from his mouth. He vomited and spat a lot of his saliva. Nonetheless, he still lifted his body from the ground.

Alex faced Nektor with clear eyes, "It wasn't an empty promise. I won't allow myself to die and leave Celia alone. I will continue standing up for her and then eventually save her!"

"You human can only make those empty promises," Nektor said before letting out another kick, "Because of you, the sister whom I love deeply has run away from her home. She is alone in this vast world If something happens to her, I will make all humanity pay the price."

His eyes nearly popped from his eye sockets; that was how enraged Nektor was. His love for the second princess had been genuine and one-sided. Of course, they were connected by blood ties, so nothing really could happen.

His older sister just looked at him like a brother.

But that never stopped Nektor from getting enamored by her.

Mia was just too beautiful a woman. She was the pinnacle of the dullahan's beauty. All dullahan women wanted to be like her, following her style and gestures. They even tried to smile like her!

"Alex! Alex!" Celia held the cage's bars tightly; her eyes were widely opened.

She and Ubo had been gazing at Alex's struggle from the beginning.

Even though he had bruises and blood all over him, his clothes were dirty and shattered, and his eyes narrowed with pain, these two little friends still believed in him.

He was cool and strong.

He was the idol they had in their hearts!

They still couldn't stop themselves from crying. Ubo had particularly the worst since he brought Celia here under Wolfen Demon's skill. He allowed that man to take over his body, which was shameful and disappointing!

If he could fix the situation with his life, he would gladly sacrifice himself. That was Ubo's resolution despite his young age.

"Nektor" Alex stood up after another beating, "I can tell you love your sister dearly. That love is forbidden and not something Miss Mia had been looking for"

"What the fuck do you know?!" Nektor roared.

Alex rose from the ground again, "You can still love her, though Nothing stops you from that But at the same time, nothing prevents Miss Mia from falling in love with a human. Nothing stops her from doing her all to him.

Even if that man is a hypocrite and bastard, it's all up to her-" Alex's speech got stopped by Nektor's enraged slash.

For the first time, Nektor unsheathed his sword. He cut through Alex's arm, exposing his skin and deep wound.

With just one slash, he lowered Alex to such a state!

Alex saw a terrifying amount of health points falling His wound stung him. He felt coldness, warmth, and pain... It was a bizarre feeling.

"Miss Mia's life belongs to her You can't mete out punishment in her name And from what Sara has told me before, I believe Miss Mia would be a good grandma for her granddaughter.

She would never put her in a cage," Alex whispered.

At last, Nektor stopped moving. It was clear that countless thoughts ran rampant in his head which was somewhere else.

Alex used that as a chance to get closer to Celia.

He dropped onto his knees, just before her cage. In such a battered state, Alex mustered the loveliest smile he could give to his little friend.

Celia let out more tears, "Alex You beat ghoul You can beat him too Right?"

Alex's stats had been severely lowered. He barely was able to stand up as constant beating had reduced his stamina too much. He also had a few side effects applied to his body, such as severe exhaustion and rough breathing.

He couldn't focus as easily as before.

"I think I made the same mistake I ended up making an empty promise" Alex whispered to Celia.

He extended his hand and ruffled her hair between the cage's bars, "Will you forgive me, Celia?"

"Mmm!" Celia nodded with her lips bitten.

Alex smiled faintly, "Don't blame Ubo. It's not his fault. We all know it."

"I don't blame Ubo!" Celia replied.

Alex nodded brightly, "You know Celia For people my age, little brats like you are kinda annoying. I mean, they are really annoying."

"Eh?" Celia lifted her little head, staring at Alex with dilated eyes.

Alex still patted her hair, "They just want to play and bother others. There was a time when I was asked to take care of a little one. He was so hard to deal with He cried often and stole my stuff. He wanted to play on my PC while I had tons of homework to do, and he also would just complain non-stop."

Celia stared without saying anything. She was indeed a good girl.

Alex chuckled, "But you are different. In that cold and dark castle, you worked diligently with your mother. You played games with your aunts and mother whenever you could.

When they had to work, you would patiently wait for them while believing in their success.

When we cleared the mess in Stella's house, you were worried more about Ubo than yourself. And you didn't complain at all. You helped your aunt with a smile on your face.

You continued doing that in my absence.

You took joy in those little things I also had a lot of fun when we did math equations together or played hide and seek to bully Schnee.

You are and always will be sunshine on my Deathwill Castle. Our little princess who likes to sing and have a tea party" Alex grinned.

Celia didn't know how to react. Her little heart kept drumming within her. She felt so warm and lovely that the cage no longer mattered. In that prison, Alex could still reach her and ruffle her hair.

That was what mattered the most.

Alex smiled at the little dullahan, "I want to ask you a very important question, Celia. Next time we see each other, can I call you my daughter?"

"Mmm" Celia raised her hands and grasped Alex's hand tightly, "You can, daddy!"

For Alex, that was enough. He couldn't do anything else And if that battle truly ended in the dullahan's favor, he wouldn't be able to convey those feelings to Celia.

He had been already treating her better than just a friend. But he still kept putting himself away from that responsibility due to his age.

Alex soon realized that it was just an excuse.

Celia raised her hands and tightly grasped his hand on her head. She didn't want to let him go, no matter what.

Even though Alex's HP was dangerously low, Celia wanted him to be with her and her mother.

She wanted everyone to return safely.

"Don't go Alex" Celia whispered, wishing for Alex's recovery. She wanted him to return to the cool Alex she idolized from the bottom of her heart.

That was when something within her broke.

Nektor, who had been struggling with his thoughts, suddenly turned around and faced the little dullahan, "Henred was right She has been born with the authority"

At the same time, Alex heard a voice from the Deathwill Castle.

"Celia has overwritten the prerequisites for the Dullahan King's Sword, Master. Since I also don't want you to die, I will send it to you without your response." The lady from the treasury had used telepathy to speak to him.

Alex understood that he hadn't misheard things now!

BANG!

The Dullahan Sword flew straight to the den from the Deathwill Castle. It landed next to Alex, burying itself within his hand's reach.

He unconsciously grasped the sword, knowing that it was his last resort.

[You can not wield the Dullahan King's Sword(Legendary)]

[Elias Deathwill's Swordsmanship has negated the effect.]

[You can wield the Dullahan King's Sword(Incomplete Version)]

Alex whispered, "I've seen this sword for the first time because of you, Celia. You are really our little princess."

He stood up and faced Nektor, "This sword and I will protect you, Celia. Ultimate Skill!"

[You have used The Dullahan King's Sword(Incomplete Version) Ultimate Skill.]

[Your status has been uploaded.]

[Nickname Change: Alexander Deathwill Miseles.]

[Race Change: Royal Dullahan(Pure-blood)]

Alex's health bar filled itself again.

That was because he shed his humanity right now. The unbelievable race change healed him from top to bottom, leaving his clothes tattered. If it weren't for those, no one would know about the beating Alex had received before.

Celia stared at Alex with a happy smile, "Alex and mom suit each other even better now!" She sensed Alex's race change; her heart grew warmer every second.

She no longer cried and felt excitement as Alex rose onto his feet again!

Alex lifted the black sword, pointing its tip at Nektor, "Already cowering in fear?"
