As long as you have the courage, fierce ghosts go on maternity leave.

Chapter 17: I don't want you to have any regrets

"Death Tattoo!"

Mother and daughter both exclaimed in surprise.

Seeing Alexander's blood-red tattoo, Isabella was even more shocked:

"Blood color, you... you've already experienced it once?"

"Yep!" Alexander nodded and said, "I just came out not too long ago and have passed the newcomer assessment to become an official Chosen. If it weren't for this tattoo, I wouldn't have been able to help Sophia even if I wanted to."

The only solution for this type of invitation was for the one with the Death Tattoo to touch the invitation item and enter on behalf of the invitee.

The room fell silent for a moment.

After a while, Isabella came back to her senses, looking at Alexander with a mixture of pity and affection, and asked:

"The instance world must be dangerous, right? I heard that those who enter, especially newcomers, suffer a lot and have a slim chance of survival. You must have had a hard time inside?"

"Actually, it was more thrilling than dangerous. I quite enjoyed it," Alexander thought about his experience in the instance and said:

"I entered a school instance. The ghosts inside were really nice, the teachers were gentle, and the classmates were very enthusiastic and spoke kindly. Everyone loved to learn and often asked for advice. I wasn't very good at studying, but luckily, I had a top student as my deskmate who was always willing to help and solve problems for classmates."

Pfft!

Sophia couldn't help but laugh at Alexander's serious expression, and some of the fear on her face dissipated.

Gentle? Enthusiastic? And eager to help?

Is this a horror world? It seems more like a social game!

That's the infamous horror instance world, where countless people turn pale at the mention of it, and thousands of people die inside every day.

"You!" Isabella glared at Alexander unhappily:

"At a time like this, you're still trying to make us laugh!"

"I'm telling the truth!" Alexander hurriedly explained:

"I even made a big brother in there. He's very loyal and said he'd have my back when he makes it big!"

A big brother? Probably a senior player, right? It couldn't be a ghost, could it?

He must have said this to cheer them up and help them relax because they were so scared.

However, it was said that the restaurant instances usually chose newcomers, and they wouldn't be lucky enough to meet a senior player in the next instance. Was he still thinking about them at this time?

Isabella's watery eyes gazed at Alexander, her seductive glance seemingly melting away.

"Isabella, why are you staring at me like that?"

Alexander felt tingling all over his body under Isabella's gaze and couldn't help but ask.

"Alexander, you go out first. Sophia and I need to change our clothes. You can come back in ten minutes."

Isabella hesitated for a long time before speaking softly.

Alexander didn't think too much about it, after all, Sophia was only wearing a coat on her upper body at the moment.

Stepping outside, whispers from the mother and daughter could be heard inside.

Alexander assumed that Isabella was comforting her daughter, so he didn't give it much thought. He took the recruitment notice in his hand and slowly pressed it against his Death Tattoo.

A flash of blood-red light passed, and on the recruitment notice, the characters "Sophia" turned into flowing blood, eventually becoming the "Alexander."

"Fierce Ghost Restaurant!"

Alexander's expression turned serious as he pondered.

Known as the graveyard of newcomers, even experienced players might not encounter much inside, so naturally, Alexander was not as relaxed as he seemed on the surface.

"There are seven days left until the end of the month. The Death Tattoo allows entrance once a month, so it seems that I won't be able to enter another instance to increase my strength before then. Fortunately, I have one more invitation."

Muttering under his breath, Alexander produced the invitation to the Ghost Apartment.

He originally had not planned to enter so soon, especially since he couldn't find any information about this Ghost Apartment instance on the Horror Forum.

However, with the end of the month approaching and the need to enter the so-called newcomer graveyard, this might be his only chance to increase his strength.

Luckily, the invitation was issued by the beautiful headteacher, who had a high favorability of 60 points, so he should not encounter any danger.

At worst, the headteacher of a newcomer instance couldn't possibly live in a luxurious place, so it must be much weaker than the Fierce Ghost Restaurant.

"We're done changing, you can come in!"

As Alexander was thinking, Isabella's voice rang out.

Alexander hurriedly put away the two items in his hand and pushed the door open to enter.

Isabella and Sophia, mother and daughter, were sitting on the edge of the bed, both having changed into new clothes.

Isabella was wearing a pinkish-white Chinese-style porcelain cheongsam. Even while sitting, her exquisite figure was accentuated, especially her prominent chest, which made one's heart race.

Beneath the cheongsam's slit, her slender, snow-white legs were barely visible. Her small feet, painted with red nail polish, were wrapped in a pair of crystal high heels, exceptionally enticing.

Sophia was dressed in a cute Lolita princess dress, with blue lining and white lace. She wore her hair in buns, with long pink ribbons hanging down her shoulders, white thigh-high socks, and a pair of delicate pink shoes.

The mother and daughter sitting side by side on the bed created an extraordinarily beautiful scene.

"Come, sit here!"

Alexander didn't expect that when Isabella said they were changing their clothes, she meant into such attire. He thought they would change into casual home clothes, but this was more like dressing up for a banquet!

Seeing Alexander enter, Isabella moved slightly to the side and patted the empty space between them.

"Isabella..."

Alexander swallowed his saliva.

The space between them was a bit too small, wasn't it?

However, Isabella seemed not to notice Alexander's discomfort. She stood up, pulled him to sit down close to her, and then sat down right beside him as well.

Hmm...it's a bit crowded.

The warmth from both sides made Alexander feel a bit dry-mouthed.

"Alexander, as far as I know, you've never had a girlfriend, right?"

Isabella casually placed her hand on Alexander's leg, speaking to him. Because they were so close, her warm breath hit Alexander's ear.

"No...no!"

Alexander didn't know what Isabella meant, but he stuttered a reply.

"What I mean is... the world of horror is so dangerous, especially instances like the Ghost Restaurant. There's a high chance you might not come back, and I... don't want you to have any regrets."

As Isabella spoke, her hand gently moved on Alexander's leg, gradually getting closer.

Alexander wanted to avoid it, but Sofia was right next to him, leaving no room to dodge. His legs were somewhat unresponsive, and he said with a trembling voice:

"Isabella, Sofia... Sofia is still here!"

Isabella gave a charming smile, her actions on his leg not stopping, as she leaned closer to Alexander:

"You're willing to risk your life for us. What can't we do for you? I told you, she should be happier watching you, right? I don't want you to have any regrets! If you can make it back alive, let Sofia marry you when she comes of age. As long as you don't mind... both Isabella and Sofia are yours!"

With that, she playfully extended her tongue and brushed it past Alexander's earlobe.
