Death Guns In Another World

After placing Gracier near Alex, Silveria created a white chair which she used to sit on, crossing her legs she patiently waited.

[I say, why are you idling here instead of going back? You know those two needed rest.] Ignia asked after a long moment of silence.

''Oh?! Don't worry I'm not idling I'm waiting for that little girl to come over. The one using the name Leena.''

Hearing Silveria's explanation, Ignia finally understood that she was waiting for someone and as for why she was clueless, hence her next question.

[I see, however even If I found her interesting with big potential, I don't understand why you would wait for her here. Is there a particular reason?]

''Reason you ask? Indeed there's a reason. I forget that you can't use your sense as I can therefore you won't know. The little girl is coming back with something interesting. Even if I have my little idea of what going on, I need confirmation and that little girl is bringing me that confirmation. You may sleep all time to replenish your energy to work on the seals but I know you saw what happened to those two. Aren't you wondering why that monster seemed to be especially targeting our hosts?"

Silveria ended her explanation with a question.

[Naturally, I asked myself this. However, I couldn't find the answer as I'm missing some pieces of the puzzle.] Ignia responded.

''The missing pieces are about to come together once that girl brings what she caught with her.''

[I shall wait then.] Ignia said silence descended as none of them continued speaking.

In her flame dimension Ignia was meditating while some strands of red energy were sent to Gracier body, strengthening her body for the sole purpose of increasing her magic reservoir, the more MP she'll have the more powerful skills (spells) she could cast. And also to strengthen Gracier's body, Mage's body is weak after all, if a swordsman bypasses their spells and arrives in front of a mage it was a checkmate, however, a powerful body (e.i Defense) can survive close combat for a moment before the Mage complete the next spell.

Outside Silveria whose eyes were closed suddenly opened them and stared at Gracier, she saw Ignia's flame essences slowly strengthening Gracier's body.

''You are sure generous,'' Silveria said with a smile on her lips because she knew how precious those things are.

[You are being sarcastic here. I'm not the one that gift skills like candy, though. You gave the boy two of your divine abilities, if I remember correctly it's Divine Sense and Accel, even that Danger Sense's skill was your doing. I'm poor, I can only do this much.] Ignia responded while continuing to do her job.

Silveria's lips twitched when she heard Ignia mentioned how poor she's.

''Touché. However, I don't give one of my eyes like it's nothing.'' Silveria counterattacked.

[Ugh! I didn't have a choice. It would have been unfair if I haven't done that. Besides, the boy a-]

''Finally, she's here.'' Silveria cut Ignia mid-sentence and announced.

Indeed as she said, Leena appeared with the unconscious demon floating not too far from her.

Stopping thirty meters from the silver-haired girl whose beauty was out of this world, Leena cautiously stared at the mysterious girl whose presence she couldn't feel even this close.

The girl didn't emit anything as if she was a simple mortal which was strange considering what happened earlier, a simple mortal couldn't do that.

''Welcome, I was waiting for your arrival, ********," Silveria said still sitting one leg crossed over another.

Immediately as she heard Silveria's words, Leena loses her cool and released powerful energy and killing intent that makes the surrounding space quake, the poor demon was flung away like a ragdoll destroying few trees in the process.

Flicking her fingers, Silveria created a barrier around Alex and Gracier to shield them before saying in an amused tone, ''So, you can also lose your cool? Interesting, however, you should keep your calm or else some people may take notice of, Well, you know what I'm talking about anyway.''

Seeing the silver-haired girl talk so nonchalantly as she was not the one at fault, Leena calmed down, hearing words she was not expecting she momentarily lost her cool and acted in a way normally she would never do.

Even before they started talking she had already lost the initiative as the other party said that word. She knew that she could regain the initiative anymore, hence,

Taking a deep breath, Leena asked, ''Who are you and what do you want?"

''Little Leena no need to act so cold,'' Silveria said with an amused grin on her face.

Even when she was being called Little Leena, Leena was unfazed, her expression didn't change as she kept staring at Silveria waiting for the latter answer.

Pouting as if to say, you are not fun at all, Silveria said.

''Alexander is my master.''

Leena's eyes widened when she heard this, she alternatively glanced between the unconscious Alex then at Silveria for a moment while inwardly thinking how Alex could have someone so powerful and she had never heard about. She had never sensed this girl's presence even when she probed Alex.

So, where did this mysterious and powerful girl popped from? Considering that Alex was otherworlder, the hypothesis of this girl being his ancestor, no protector can be ruled out. Besides, the girl said Alex was her master, how can someone so powerful be a weakling (considering his current level) servant? It doesn't make any sense unless-

Thinking of a certain possibility, Leena's eyes widened again for the second time since her arrival, she stared at Silveria's not daring to believe her assumption, she had never heard of something like that.

Having been observing Leena as she was lost in thoughts, Silveria couldn't help but smile as she saw her reaction that indicates that she concluded something, however, she dared not to believe it.

Silveria finds her reaction entertaining therefore she said, ''Indeed it's as you think. I'm what you are thinking am I.''

''Eh?" Leena exclaimed mouth agape as she heard Silveria's confirmation.

''Fufufu, that's some nice reaction you have there,'' Silveria said amused before, her expression turned solemn all sudden and she said.

''As for my goal, it's pretty simple, it's to ensure my master's wellbeing. I hope you are not planning to use my master and discard him? I hope you not plotting something harmful in his back? That you'll not betray him? Not drag in into something that will cost his life?'' She stopped there before continuing, however this time she released a powerful killing intent that was so dense that it was materialized into a world of slaughter full of corpses. Leena didn't even want to know how many people or monsters she'd killed to possesses this kind of killing intent that could twist reality.

''I do hope, you will not harm him, not scheme against him, not put him into a dangerous situation or else I swear I'll obliterate you alongside those dear to you. And do not doubt my words, you know how powerful am I, you have felt it earlier. Freezing everything radius fifty kilometers is one fraction of what I can do, and I do hope you'll never do something that would warrant me using my full power.''

Leena unconsciously nodded her head, she felt scared, something she had not felt since that battle a long time ago. This girl was giving her a dangerous vibe not different from that monster.

Meanwhile, Ignia who was meditating in her flame dimension fell into the hot lava beneath her as she heard Silveria's shameless words, swimming back up, she asked.

[I say, Silveria, is shamelessness contagious?]

'I don't know what you are talking about.'

Silveria answered, acting innocently.

Ignia facepalmed.

[Indeed, it's contagious. For you claim another person's achievement as yours even without a change in your voice, it was so natural that if I didn't know the truth I would have fallen for it. Truly shameless, acting all mighty when-]

'Shut up little Ignia. Even if I lied, it was not false. Even though it was not me, it was my Big sister who did it, it doesn't change anything because the little girl doesn't know about it. So shut up and let me pl- do my job.' Silveria shouted at Ignia in her mind.

[You never change, do you? Aren't you planning to say let me play?] Ignia asked.

'I dunno what you are talking about.' Silveria said refusing to acknowledge that she was trying to say that.

[Whatever] Ignia said before restarting her to meditate as she sent more flame essences into Gracier's body. Gracier's hair became redder, her physical was getting strengthened.

~Back to Leena.

She had managed to calm down, looking directly at Silveria in the eyes she spoke.

''I promise not to scheme against him, not to betray him. As I said to even himself, I have been waiting for him. A long time ago an oracle predicted the arrival of Otherworlders and among them would be a person that could help us. I wouldn't deny that what I need him for is dangerous but it's not like he will be the only one participating, I'll also participate alongside numerous other individuals.''

Leena stopped and observed Silveria who was still coldly staring at her.

Sighing, Leena continued.

''It won't happen too soon, in the meantime, I'll help him grow and shelter him. He's essential for what is about to happen, after all, it won't work without him so I'll gain nothing if I'm on his bad side, you don't have to worry, even without your warning I've never planned to harm. If I were to do, all I believe in, all have sacrificed to come this far would be for naught, I'm not that foolish.''

After saying that Leena waited for Silveria's reply, however, only silence answered her, glancing at Silveria she was astonished when suddenly the latter vanished and reappeared in front of her with a smile on her lips.

''You pass.'' She said.
