Death Guns In Another World

Somewhere on the human continent, they existed a special dungeon with only one floor, only accessible to most private and strongest people of the world council. This floor was in fact a portal toward a certain small realm.

Once you venture forward through the animated portal revealed only during a full moon. You're immediately met by a vigorous world. The first thing you notice is a barrage of scents. Pleasant and calming, this world of scents is unlike any other. Who knows how long you could last in this world, probably not for long.

It's a world of hidden mysteries.

This world was covered in forest.

The forest was colossal, dense, and ancient. Its canopy was claimed by Buxus, walnut, and cedar, enough light shimmered through their crowns for a motley of herbs to spread in the nut and seed-covered grounds below.

Quiet tree limbs held onto many a tree, and a variety of flowers, which clung to any space they could find, contrasted against the otherwise brown and green terrain.

A medley of wild noises, belonging mostly to insects and critters, echoed in the air and formed a chaotic orchestra with the splashing of fish in a nearby lake.

On a lone Hill stood a palace, and this palace was high up on the hill overlooking the forest, its many pointed towers giving it the look of an eccentric crown. The walls were a white stone that glistened in the summer sun and the roof was grey slate. There are sculptures in front of the palace, These sculptures in front of the palace had been made long ago by masters of the craft, it seems to recount some kind of story, probably a world war, the Bloody War, it was called.

The interior of the palace is beautiful, all stair rails were ornate mahogany, carved and polished so that they shined. The furniture was all handmade by master craftsmen. Nothing ever got dirty, in the center of the palace stood a giant golden door and behind these golden doors is a big hall.

In the middle of that room is a beautiful big table and surrounding these big tables were chairs occupied by the big shots of the three-continent, the emperors, the kings, and some special Elders.

This place is special with no discernible human living here, only a select few in the world knew about this place. The secrecy has a lot to do with how the biggest shots presiding over the world would convene and discuss international affairs here.

Finally, today was one of those rare days where this place got some action.

The members of this place installed projection equipment here so they can talk without traveling far from their domains. They discussed important matters like the case of the Holy Empire, they also used this place whenever they wanted to contact someone else. For instance, Alex was summoned here so all could talk to him and decide how to divide the fallen Holy Empire.

Very rarely, the members would appear in person for meetings. These types of meetings usually discussed critical matters that could affect the world. In a sense, the members are all demigods who could move the world with their immense authority, so they are also the ones who bore the weight of the fates of their citizens.

The confirmation of the dragon breaking his seal and the Chaos Organization gave them enough reason to appear physically.

''I assume everyone's here already?"

A figure wearing a crown spoke up. His voice sounded warm and calm, pacifying anyone's bad feelings with just a sentence from him. He's the emperor of the strongest empire, Artemia's father, Julius Caesar Von Havens.

"With everyone here, let's begin…"

Julius gave a nod to the other middle-aged men with crowns on their heads. Saeko's father, Leon's father, Eris's father, the Foxia empress, even Lilith, and lastly Elseria.

"Old Man Jack, please take the stage…"

Jack Von Havens, Julius' brother, and right-hand man got up and he addressed everyone here with a respectful bow.

"I am sure everyone is already aware of the aim of this meeting?"

Jack continued with a grave tone.

"Our speculations were true, the dark beast's seals are disappearing!"

The others looked on with grim looks. Even the emperors were all furrowing their brows, they didn't look at Jack because they were too busy sorting their thoughts.

Jack, Artemia's uncle looked around before he continued. He discussed the findings obtained. He discussed the findings obtained by their spies and reports sent by Alex's group.

Everyone present here knew this, this is a serious problem they couldn't continue ignoring. Because they thought the seals would at least work for another few years, 10 maybe 20 years they're now completely caught off guard resulting in the enemy gaining considerable ground.

''We should discuss a possible solution to deal with this problem and as most of you could have guessed, Bahamut is the one behind the Chaos Organization causing us trouble recently and we are unable to even locate them till this day.'' Julius lamented this inability to locate the enemy's base. While they know where the dragon was sealed nobody was insane enough to go in there as it would mean a sure death even for the powerful Demigod.

The reasonable solution was to quickly find the location of the Chaos Organization and eradicate them all, by doing this they would be cutting off a big part of Bahamut's strength and they could focus more on the strategy to deal with the dragon.

''If only our world wasn't cursed.'' One of the kings present lamented and those present knew he was referring to the fact that if weren't for this curse, achieving the next Rank, Rank 15, the Fake God realm wouldn't be impossible. If only they have a bunch of Fake God experts this fight could be winnable, just imagine if everyone present here was Fake God. Their chances would increase, and it was undeniable that despite having many Fake Gods, their predecessors still lost but that was the past as they have something their predecessors didn't have, Otherworlders.

''How are Alexander and the others progressing?" Saeko's father inquired. It was something most of those present wanted to know.

''They are progressing at a fast speed but unfortunately, the Hero has become corrupted siding with the enemy thus the Black Prince's group eliminated them,'' Jack informed everyone present.

''What?!!"

Most of them were shocked because truth be told, some of them were still clinging to the hope that during the darkest hour, Leonardo with his Hero class could shine brightly and save the world after all his super rare class wouldn't hold any meaning if it was not the case. So learning this trump card was no more came as shock but at the same time, they are relieved as Alex got rid of a troublesome problem as it is what he would become, an otherworlder with such class on the enemy's side would spell a headache to them.

Suddenly, one of the kings, Richard Ils III, ruler of one of the principalities asked.

''What if we asked for Alex's master, the thesilver-hairedd goddess to help us? I believe she is the one in prophecy that will help us.''

Elseria and Julius, even Lilith had an odd look on their faces at this mention.

Jack, Artemia's uncle frowned at this mention.

"Are you trying to say that because she is his master, it's only appropriate to ask for her help? Let me ask you another question, what makes you so sure she's going to help out?"

"You mean she's gonna turn us down?"

An old man with white hair laughed coldly. He is the ruler of the second principality, Marcus Elstein.

"I am sure she can turn us down but we can always persuade Alex to lobby on our behalf…" Richard suggested.

"What did you say?…"

Jack turned towards him with a dark look.

"With all due respect, I advise you to dismiss any notion to harm him…"

"Old man Jack!"

Richard yelled back at him.

"I know your family is very close with but need I remind you that the dragon poses a great threat to us all? This isn't the time to be biased by your perceptions of that brat. I am sure if you asked nicely, he would probably ask her master to help out, don't you think so?"

"You…"

Incensed by Richard's words, Jack roared.

"Old fox, he doesn't owe me anything and he doesn't owe all of us anything. He's not required to do anything for us, do you think he is your servant who you can order around as you please?"

"How dare you imply that I am the one with a vested interest? I'm just proposing a solution, if she joined us maybe we might have a chance. Her disciple will be fighting with us anyway, so why won't she participate as well? She is nothing special.'' Richard said, his voice was filled with hostility even though he tried to hide it.

The others emperors were watching with a calm faces.

The moment he declared his hostility, a crack in space opened with ominous-looking eyes peering from beyond the crack in space. An invisible wave of power assaulted the king.

Poof!

Richard started spewing blood as someone smashed him against a wall some distance away. He immediately blacked out from the force of this attack.

"What?!"

The remaining people all gasped in surprise.

A voice came from the distorted space, they felt terror for the first time in their lives.

"Be careful in your ventures for everything comes at a price. I never expected to hear something like this upon my return.''

Then finally a figure clad in a beautiful dress appeared, a woman of otherworldly beauty, those present shuddered upon seeing her face as their recognized her, the strongest empress had returned.
