"There's a time before the monster appears. I will go after Dollar while you work with Remia to help citizens," Alex whispered to Stella, slowly pushing her away from himself, to no avail.

Alex couldn't just simply shake off the winged wife from his back. Her hands tightly held him, wanting to go together with him.

"I want to support you," Stella blew those words softly to her beloved's ear.

Alex shook his head, "We don't know what kind of monsters hide there. I can always die and respawn a day later.

Also, I want you to take care of those swords," Alex passed her the Dullahan King's Sword and Elias Deathwill's Prototype.

Dollar was wounded, so Alex expected to deal with him with normal swords for his level. He always had some spare swords, just in case. Those should do fine against the injured player, whose wounds shouldn't have healed yet.

If the villain actually managed to heal himself, Alex would have a slightly harder time, which he didn't mind.

More challenge, more development!

Stella was forced to give up. She flapped her wings, taking swords to her inventory. She pouted, not wanting to look into Alex's eyes, which proved to be a challenge.

Stella couldn't stop herself from taking furtive glances at her beloved.

Alex also saw it, so he pecked her lips before throwing himself into the dungeon, "I will be back!"

He reassured while disappearing into the dungeon's jaws.

Stella stared at him, then her golden eyes closed after he was long since gone, "I want to be immortal too."

She would always be able to help him in this way.

[You have entered the Underground Dungeon.]

[Elven Underground Prison Dungeon(Lv. 100)]

Alex didn't even think he would be able to deal with the monsters here in this world. He utterly lacked the level, information, and items to fight them head-on. Nonetheless, it should be fine to search for the villain as Alex swore to kill him.

The dungeon's insides were vastly different from the Orc Dungeon.

First, Alex appeared in a tight corridor. The walls were dark red as if the blood had dried here… The metal stench permeated the area, corroding Alex's nose. His mind shook from inhaling the air for the first time.

[If you keep inhaling this air, you might receive [Vertigo Symptoms], leaving you vulnerable.]

Fortunately, Alex had Stella's blessing. He would be able to endure this toxic environment for longer than a casual player. She had also blessed him, so Alex wouldn't die easily, like in the Orc Dungeon.

Alex would thank his winged girl for her help and care in a normal scenario. Her abilities were like a cheat, so adventuring with Stella had much more advantages than with others.

But he was currently focused on the new environment, his safety, and Dollar's whereabouts.

Of course, Alex wouldn't forget to sincerely thank Stella later.

He called out Bo, "Try to sniff him out."

Bo nodded, brushing his wolf's nose on the floor. At first, he was confused by that sudden task that wasn't really his specialty. But after rubbing his nose for some time, Bo picked up the villain's scent, which was much different from all hidden monsters here.

pᴀɴdᴀ Because of that, Alex didn't bump into any monsters. He followed Dollar's path, which was obviously a safe route.

Alex couldn't tell how much power Dollar had, but he was more sure about Dollar's skills, "He must've gotten his hands on the royal blood. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to open this place…

And because he knew about it, which is the knowledge exclusive to the strongest fairy in the forest, his class must be a thief," Alex nodded, getting pretty close to the truth.

Alex's walk stopped after a woman in a tight dress appeared before him.

[A few minutes after Alex's meeting with Eva.]

Eva had been confused about Dollar's failure. She had also been in this forest for a while, her goal to secure the monsters from the underground prison. Because of her goal, she had a fateful meeting with Dollar.

Both of them collaborated as their goals were similar.

They both wanted to enter this place to secure wealth. But while Eva had her eyes on the sleeping monsters here, Dollar wanted something else. He tried to destroy the dungeon's system, causing the explosion that would swallow the whole forest fairies' lands!

Because he would be the perpetrator, Dollar would receive experience points for every killed fairy, including the forest fairies' queen.

He would level up like a monster. He would jump more than thirty levels at once! No, he believed he would be the first player to reach level hundred!

And then, he would get so much money…

Dollar's desires were pretty simple but too cruel!

Eva couldn't care less, though. She had been associated with death and the undead. She had seen many people fall, so random people from low-level grounds couldn't shake her heart at all.

[Alexander Deathwill]

For a moment, Eva's heart skipped a beat. She recalled her talk with her father, which left her with many questions.

[You will leave Elias Deathwill's Successor and his castle alone. There's no need to overlook the hungry demons, the lands, and what they are plotting here as well.]

[Why would you even make such a decision, pops? It does not make any sense since you could already invade his castle through gaps. A few more months, and you would seize the whole castle for yourself.]

[Haha~~ It's because you haven't seen his battle with the Dullahan Prince. When Alexander went Headless, his body utilized Elias Deathwill's Swordsmanship to perfection.

It might've looked like the skill took over him. Both Alexander and Nektor believe in that… But the reality is different. It was Alexander's body that tamed Elias Deathwill's Swordsmanship.

If the battle continued, he would bring out even more of it. He has more potential than Elias Deathwill. I'm confident that he will bring [Battle Spirit] to perfection and beyond as well!]

[So you have your eyes on that skill.]

[That's indeed the case. You and I can't tell the origins of Battle Spirit. We know that Elias Deathwill created it by visiting the Mirror World. Still, even those cats lack a proper understanding of their own treasure.

There's so much more to it… There's so much to my masterpiece!]

[Don't make me remember that masterpiece. It's so damn ugly… Why would you even stick so many hands on it? Gross.]

[Says the girl who attaches bone tails to her ass.]

[Only I can protect that big ass… Fuck off already.]

[Sigh! That power already calls me back… I will visit you next month and tell you about my meeting with Dullahan King! Haha! That guy can't adapt at all! I plan to buy some plane tickets to visit other countries to see other high-level clowns soon.

That shit will be funny! I'm gonna call the police on them! Haha!]

[You sure enjoy yourself. And what's the police?]

Her father disappeared, no longer being able to stay on his homeworld.

After Eva was alone, she whispered to herself, "I'm the only masterpiece you need, pops."

Back to reality, Eva's blue eyes went up, "Help me become the masterpiece, Alexander."

"Huh? Did you say something?" Dollar turned his eyes, looking at Eva with confusion.

The beautiful lady ignored him as if he never mattered.
