Chapter 404: Stella momma is too strict



At last, Veronica appeared in the main garden. She had been found out by one of the kids, yet she sensed Alex and Stella’s presence, so like a good kid, she went straight to her parents.

After jumping into Stella’s arms, Veronica comfortably closed her eyes, feeling the warmth and care she had never felt before. She instantly fell asleep, probably due to Stella’s affection and tiredness.

Alex and Remia gazed at them with lovely eyes. Remia felt like crying as it was such a beautiful scene.

A few seconds later, Celia emerged from the shadows, jumping into Alex’s hands. She felt more energetic and happier, for she had become friends with everyone. And unlike Veronica, Celia had trained her body, so she didn’t have to rely on holiness to recover her stamina.

She had a lot of it!

So with her feelings swirling within her, Celia thrashed in Alex’s hands, telling him about her new friends, their games, and how fun it was. At first, it was quite hard, though.

Celia saw that everyone was sad and exhausted. But then, Veronica made her presence stand out, shouting and crying about how happy she was that everyone could finally escape that cruel room.

She mentioned Alex and Stella as her parents, so Celia immediately knew she had a sister. And with these two bonding pretty easily, their happiness and kindness permeated others, and now everyone was playing games while enjoying their lives innocently, like all kids should.

“Team Friends has become so big!” Celia grinned, waving her plush toy with immense joy.

Alex ruffled her hair, proud of his little girl, “We will find a home for them soon.”

“Eh?!” Celia lifted her big eyes at Alex, not believing her ears. She thought everyone would live in a castle because it was so big.

But that was not the case. Alex gently explained that every kid from Winged Realm needed a lot of attention and love. And he was just one entity, and his wives were a small group, at most.

He could only take Veronica as Stella wouldn’t fail as a mother, and other wives would surely help her.

Celia couldn’t understand everything, so her eyes teared, and she gazed at Alex as if he were a bully. She bit her lips, tears soon tickling her cheeks. She kept staring at him while whispering, begging Alex to change his mindset.

She wanted him to keep everyone!

Alex sat adamant, even though Celia surely knew how to make him feel bad or sad, for his heart had ached a few times already. And as she pouted at the end, leaving his lap, Alex felt like this little daughter had too much power in her eyes!

But then, Veronica woke up. She smiled at her parents, then gently slid down to stand on her two feet. She wanted to play with everyone, so she waved her hand at her parents.

And that was when Alex understood that Stella would indeed be a good mother.

“No,” Stella parted her lips, pinning Veronica with her motherly presence. Although it was just building up within her, Stella had become a momma.

She added, “You’ve played enough. You have to learn about the rules in Deathwill Castle and our house on Earth. You also need an education, so we will go shopping in Alex’s world after you change.”

“B-But Celia wants to play with me…” Veronica lifted her eyes, wanting to keep playing with others.

“You will have three hours to play tomorrow,” Stella showcased to Alex what it meant to be adamant, for nothing rippled in her decisive expression. Her eyes remained locked on Veronica, wanting her to have a proper schedule.

Celia sprang before Veronica, raising her plush toy at her aunt, “It’s our first day of having fun, Aunt Stella! You should let us have fun for more before responsibilities come!”

Alex also felt it would be a good way, “I agree with Celia. They should have some fun. Besides, the kids will soon leave the castle. They should enjoy their freedom to their utmost… Haha…”

But as Stella turned around to face her fiance, her eyes narrowed and expression stoic, Alex awkwardly laughed before shutting his lips. He felt like he saw Celia and Veronica’s eyes looking at him with disappointment, narrowed and sad.

“Haha! I will check on the other kids. Some are still hiding in dangerous places! Ah, those little ones. They are cheating with their wings, don’t they? My Celia can’t fly! Haha!” Alex took Remia away, thinking he should start smoking like Master Auberon, for he couldn’t control his quivering lips.

It was just too awkward.

Remia had been barely able to control herself, and after these two entered one of many corridors, her laughter burst like a balloon.

“Aunt Stella!”

“You are clever, aren’t you? You have already gone through much training, education, and time with Sara. As Veronica’s sister, you ought to help her adapt to the world, not play hide and seek all day long.”

“W-We will study in the evening!”

“It’s been confirmed that the brain consumes knowledge the best from early morning to afternoon.”

“Uh…”

Stella was different than before. In the beginning, when Stella wanted to be a good aunt to Celia, she followed Sara’s routine. But after her growth as a person and desire to become a good wife and mother, Stella developed her own idea of being a mother.

She was confident and adamant and unexpectedly strict!

“Studying and training can also be fun. I will make sure it is… You will listen like a good child and become the best, alright, Veronica?” Stella Momma’s voice was soft yet strict, not allowing Veronica to disagree or argue with her.

“I believe in mother!” And foremost, Veronica sensed that Stella held a genuine love and affection toward her, with her innate skill, so she wanted to follow and not disappoint her mother.

Celia stared at Stella with wide eyes, trembling.

Stella curved her lips into a faint smile, “Alex’s world’s education is better, so Veronica will attend school with you. Help her as much as you can, Celia.”

“I will!” Celia replied, then saluted like a little soldier. Deep inside, she swore to find as much free time as possible for Veronica, so both of them could play games.

That was the first significant shift in Celia’s life, for she started to rebel seriously against aunt Stella.
