Death Guns In Another World

Suddenly, the scenery changed and while it was happening, the dying Ludic seemed to have heard a voice.

'Welcome back.'

That voice uttered and Ludic's body shuddered he seemed to have understood something but this quickly disappeared as well. Time seemed to have been rewound to when he was trying to stop Xavier from attacking Alex.

The latter eyes were red and Xavier had become mad, he decided to shoot a fireball into the room.

Meanwhile inside the room.

Valery sat down on the bed, her body covered with sweat. She took a tissue paper to wipe the sweat off her body.

Alex was dressed back.

"Dress soon," He said as he passed Valery her clothes from the floor.

"Soon? Why?" She asked, confused.

Alex didn't reply but poured himself a glass of water. He brought the glass to his lips and gulped down the entire glass in quick succession.

The entrance of the room, which was made of fabric, broke apart into flames as a fireball moved forward like a shooting star.

As the stream of light rushed forward, the temperature in the room increased by countless folds.

"An attack!" Valery's eyes turned wide in shock.

She knew the shot originated from either of her companions, and she also knew how terrifying this fireball would be.

If one was hit directly then the only fate would be incarnating into ashes!

She was in the middle of clasping her bra strings and didn't even get time to react further as the laser light rushed toward her.

The fireball was on the bed but she was sitting on it. There was no time for her to move or dodge.

"No!" She shut her eyes, waiting for the pain of death to arrive. She has seen people dying from the fireball and has heard their horrifying screams.

The death was momentary but yet the pain seemed to carry a lifetime of story. She has always prayed to never meet such a demise but now she was helpless.

She has so many aspirations she wished to fulfill but.

Valery waited and waited for seconds which seemed like years, but the sensation of the terrifying pain didn't arrive.

Slowly she opened her eyes and saw a hand in front. The hand was clutched and the fireballs of light then turned into mist and disappeared into nothingness.

"Alex?" She raised her head to look at him.

He was standing with a nonchalant expression, his other hand still carrying a glass. His expression was like he dealt with an ordinary ball instead of blocking a fireball coming from a Saint.

Valery was completely dumbfounded by his nonchalant attitude and the ease with which he handled the situation.

Just what type of strength does it take to block such a powerful attack without suffering the least bit of damage?

Alex stepped in front of her and placed the glass away. Her breasts were exposed, with the bra falling.

"Let me help you." He picked up the bra and slid it back on her breasts.

"T-thanks," Valery's cheeks were as red as the word red.

"No problem," Alex said nonchalantly as he hooked her bra before adding, "This was why I said get dressed quickly."

"You knew the attack was coming?!" She was startled. Before she could pester him for an answer, she noticed two figures some distance away from them.

The fireball was extinguished but it has already burned away the entrance. The room was still lightened up with the inbuilt lamps in the remaining fabric.

Ludic and Xavier were standing at the entrance, shocked by how the scene folded inside. Ludic has traces of blood on his face but he was in no state to think about his injuries.

When Xavier fired the fireball into the room, he was expecting the worst. But now it looked like his worry was for nothing, that fireball has done no harm.

What shocked him was how the attack was neutralized. Valery didn't notice it but he has. He has seen how Alex just put his hand forward in front of the coming fireball and then clenched his fist as soon as it made a contact.

Ludic expected him to turn into ashes, but instead, the fireball was extinguished like sparks of fire.

"How is this possible?" He was terrified.

He has made a report on Alex and his powers when the latter faced the wolves and Steel Fish.

''He was hiding his powers!" Ludic contemplated the details, " Otherwise, with the power he displayed now, defeating Steel Fish should be easy! But yet, he was pushed back and Xavier was forced to step in against the fish!"

"What is the meaning of this?" Valery left the bed and looked at her companions. The near-death experience has made her numb for a minute but now she regained her clarity.

She couldn't believe her companions would attack her in the middle of the night. While she was inside Alex's room, she knew her companions were aware but yet they attacked her.

If not for Alex, she would be ashes floating in the night sky.

"I want to ask the same!" Xavier said in a loud voice, "What the hell were you doing with him?!"

His eyes were filled with madness and he didn't care the least bit about how the fireball was blocked. All he wanted was to get revenge for the humiliation and the pain he has undergone.

"You fucking idiot" Valery called out in an annoyed voice, "I can do anything I please and it is none of your business."

She was in no mood to care about the cute and innocent image she has earlier established in front of Alex. She has experienced a near-death moment, and things like her plans were the last things she wanted to think about.

"Slut, I will kill you and your lover, you adulterous couple---" Xavier was in the middle of cussing, but then he stopped as he saw the scene in front of him.

Alex placed a pillow on the headboard and then sat down on the bed, his back resting on the pillow. He took out his something and started fiddling with it, not bothered by what going on before him.

"What is he doing?!" Xavier looked in complete disbelief as Alex playing with the unknown thing.

''He playing -" Ludic had even finished before Xavier became more furious.

''Are you kidding with me?!" His eyes were bloodshot.

He was letting out his steam and emotions, but yet the main culprit was playing around, instead of trying to apologize and beg for life.

This is not how things should play out!

Valery turned her head back and was similarly dumbfounded by the scene.

"Hmm?" Alex seemed to notice their gazes as he raised his head.

"Ah! Please continue," Alex lowered the thing the others couldn't identify, it was a smartphone, if any earthling was present they would have identified it.

''Don't let my presence hinder you." He added with a smile.

Valery was perplexed by his sudden change in personality. Just moments ago he saved her life, but now he was acting completely oblivious to everything.

"Could it be the side effects of the drugs in the wine?" She thought of how shy and nervous Alex was before consuming the milk.

He would blush at even the slightest contact with her, but after drinking the drugged wine, he became bold and passionate as he expressed his feelings to her. Now, he has changed again.

"Oh right! I get it now!" Alex nodded his head as if he realized something, "You are trying to tell me it is not right to use a phone such late in the night!"

He put his phone back in his pocket.

"Honestly, I'm exhausted so thank you for the reminder," He lay on the bed, "If you three don't mind, can you please continue your argument outside so that I can sleep?"

"Bastard!" Xavier aimed his sword at Alex.

"Stop!" Valery raised her left ready to attack, previously she had been caught off guard and couldn't react but this time it will be different.

Xavier gritted his teeth, but then his eyes turned wide as he noticed something dazzling in her raised hand.

"A ring?!" His body trembled with anger.

He has never noticed the diamond ring before so he was sure of what it meant.

Valery was engaged with Alex!

"Bitch! You became his slut in just a day?!" Xavier turned the sword towards her.

"Your mom is a slut, your whole family is a slut," Valery was ready to attack him.

She had enough of his conduct and didn't mind killing him to settle scores, even if it resulted in a punishment later on.

"Stop it," Ludic stepped in between them, "And clear your minds otherwise we three would die at his hands."

"What?!" Valery and Xavier looked at Ludic in shock.

"Don't you get it? He was hiding his powers, he was playing with us!" He reminded them of the details they missed due to their shock and anger.

"No way," Valery glanced at Alex and noticed a faint smile on his face. She suddenly felt a bad premonition bubbling in her heart.

"You are immune to poison, right?" Ludic asked him.

''Not bad, plus one to you,'' Alex responded before snapping his fingers.

SNAP!

Under everyone's dumfounded eyes, the scenery changed, breaking like glass and the next thing they knew, they were sitting around a bonfire where they previously ate.

''Welcome back!'' Alex said with a beautiful smile, a harmless smile but the trio wasn't in the mood to enjoy this because at the moment terror filled their hearts.
