Chapter 1645: Reunion 1

Back at the fortress, Alex used the special pass he'd been given, making his way through the secure gates and into the familiar halls of his stronghold. The moment he stepped inside, he could feel the warm, comforting energy of home surrounding him. It wasn't long before he was greeted by the excited sounds of footsteps racing toward him, and soon enough, he found himself swarmed by the girls who meant the world to him.

Gracier, with her fiery red hair tied up in her signature twin tails, was the first to reach him. She practically leaped into his arms, her embrace tight and overflowing with joy.

"Welcome back, big brother! I missed you so much!" she exclaimed, her voice full of affection.

Alex wrapped his arms around her, feeling the weight of his own longing dissipate as he held her close. "Me too, Gracier," he replied, pressing a gentle kiss to her forehead. He savored the moment, grateful to be with his family again.
