Chapter 427: Another surprise
After appearing in his castle, Alex instantly sniffed a different mood.
It felt heavy… And it was so palpable that Schnee didn't have plans of turning into her humanoid form. Perhaps, her clash with Luxuria was also the reason, but Alex didn't have time to think or deal with Schnee's problem yet.
She was also fine staying in his arms.
"Daddy!" Celia screamed from an unknown direction. Alex blamed his wounds that had started healing just recently. If it weren't for those wounds, he would know where his little dullahan was.
At last, Celia hurtled into Alex's embrace, sharing a spot in his arms with Schnee, "Daddy! Daddy! Daddy!"
"I'm here… What has happened?" Alex used his free hand to stroke Celia's hair, gently asking her what had occurred in his absence. He felt heavy, his mood was sour, and he couldn't really bring out a smile - yet he smiled for his daughter.
