Death Guns In Another World

Isabella suddenly attacked Artemia at a critical moment wanting to make her fail the ceremony she was completing; if not for Alex's quick reaction, the worst would have already happened.

Suddenly, Isabella's eyes turned red, and she disappeared.

Swoosh!

Clangs!

When Isabella reappeared again, she was already at Alex's back; Alex managed to block the spear aimed at his head; however, surprisingly, he got push a couple of steps back.

Before the possessed Isabella could express her joy, having won in the contest of strength, her expression changed. She used an unknown movement skill to quickly distance herself from Alex as two knives came flying toward Alex; the previous knives Alex dropped on the floor, he used Link to call them back.

Even he would have liked that the possessed Isabella didn't react such fast; his aim had been achieved.

Alex disappeared to reappear before the smiling Isabella; just as his knife was about to strike Isabella's hand, a red tentacle appeared and blocked his knife; even though it got cut, it regenerated instantly.

Jumping back, Alex warily looks at the possessed Isabella, who had more tentacles coming out of her body; it was creepy.

Just as Alex was about to speak, Silveria announced.

〖Master, I have found a way to deal with the thing controlling Isabella without having to kill her.〗

'Good, tell me.' Alex said.

After hearing Silveria's plan, Alex smiled; although it was a dangerous plan, the slight mishaps might occur in Isabella losing her life, Alex had faith in himself.

''Hehehe~ I wonder what makes you so happy, Dear~. Care to share it?"

''Disgusting!" Alex spat out before dodging tentacles shot at him.

''Dear~ you are so heartless, to think you will have the gut to injure this beautiful lady. Too bad my lovely tentacles are faster. I know you can bear to injure me seriously.''

The possessed Isabella proudly declared as she kept sending more tentacles toward Alex; the latter dodged them all and put some distance between them.

Looking at the smiling Isabella, her smiling face was so creepy that Alex had trouble holding himself from beheading her.

''You are mistaking about two things: First, your tentacles are not faster at all.''

Just after saying that, Alex shooted two bullets in quick succession, the possessed Isabella tentacles couldn't keep up to, her left shoulder got pierced, strangely it became impossible for her to move that arm, not the red tentacle special ability help the possessed Isabella to regenerate.

To the dumbfounded Isabella, Alex declared.

''And two, I won't hesitate to injure you if this means I can save you seriously.''

''Disable''

BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG!

Faster than she could follow, six bullets tore through the air and aimed at the remaining arm, feet of the possessed Isabella, two bullets for her right shoulder, two for her left leg, and the remaining two for her right leg, the possessed Isabella was disabled in a flash, Alex accuracy was scary.

Slowly, the possessed Isabella started to fall toward the ground.

Looking at the falling Isabella, Alex did not rush forward to help her even though the disgusting red tentacles disappeared; on the contrary, Alex aimed Silveria at the falling Isabella and shouted.

''Do it.''

〖Roger Master〗Silveria responded, and a white bullet was fired, going straight to Isabella's heart where a disgusting black thing was stored; it was wiggling like a worm.

''You-"

Before the possessed Isabella could finish whatever she planned to say, the white bullet entered Isabella's heart and destroyed the black thing; before it got destroyed, it made one last desperate attempt.

Isabella, who had her heart pissed, puked black blood before falling on the ground; something shot out from that black blood; it was a black needle, it went straight to Artemia's forehead.

''Shit!" Alex cursed before moving with all his strength toward Artemia; he managed to make it, placing himself in front of Artemia; he used his body to take the needle aimed at her.

''Gah!"

As if he got electrocuted, Alex cried before puking a mouthful of blood, quickly removing the black needle from his shoulder; Alex was astonished to see the injury got corroded, thankfully he possessed High Regeneration skill, the skill kick in and pushed out the bad blood before closing the wound.

Alex heaved a sigh of relief, unknown to him that blood that got ejected from his wound wiggled until it disappeared into the magic circle that Artemia was sitting on.

''Hehehe~ Alexander, I'll be sure to pay you today humiliation tenfold in the future.''

A sudden voice entered Alex's ears before disappearing.

''I'll be waiting,'' Alex responded; he was not surprised that that thing was not dead; he knew that it wasn't the real thing which was here; if not, he wouldn't have easily deal with it as he did.

After catching his breath, Alex moved toward Isabella; after feeding her a healing potion, Alex put her in a corner inside the dungeon, not forgetting to put a blanket over her body. She needs rest; from Silveria's analysis, she was possessed after falling unconscious in the last fight; she was mentally exhausted coupled with what happened; she became more exhausted and needed more rest.

''Sigh! I wonder how many I will have to save you?"

Looking at the peacefully sleeping Isabella, Alex couldn't help but ask this; it was almost as if he owned something in his previous life.

〖Maybe you owned something in your previous life.〗Silveria joked.

'Maybe it's that. Well, forget. Let's wait for Artemia to finish. This time I hope that anything will not go wrong, no more attack. I tired. I need to see my girls.''

Alex said while sitting behind Artemia to have more to have a perfect view of everything.

Strangely, Silveria appeared as well and sat on his left.

For a while, no one spoke until Silveria finally spoke.

''You know, I still remember what our life was back then. Although my sister's personality was a little bit cold, she could still smile, make friends, and even sometimes jokes. However, after that incident, she changed.''

Alex could notice the sadness Silveria was feeling through her voice. He stayed silent before asking.

''Can you tell me what happened? If you want, of course.''

''You know Master, normally in this kind of situation, you ought to console me because I'm sad.''

Instead of responding, Silveria decided to tease Alex.

''You would have been too happy if I did that. Well, playing the role of a listener is another way to console you. Do you think that I'm too good? Too gentlemanly ?"

In turn, Alex decided to tease her back. Silveria rolled her eyes at Alex.

''Sigh! My father betrayed us and stabbed her in the back, almost crippling her. It was the first time we learned about them. To think our caring father would act like that, my sister assisted at the scene; she was so shocked that she became mute for a while; she loved our father too

much. Assisting at such a tragedy broke something within her. Since that day, my sister has stopped smiling. And when that day comes she welcomed our mother's decision with open arms, fully knowing the consequences, to take revenge against those responsible for that day's tragedy.''

Silveria told Alex what happened back then; even though she tried to restrain her anger, Alex could still detect it. She might have says that Nyx was the most affected by what happened, but she wasn't less affected than Nyx was.

''What about you? If your sister's goal is revenge? What is about your goal?"

''I wish for my sister to smile once again. Even if this means slaughtering every one of them, I will try. I'm furious as well, furious that quiet life got destroyed, furious that we became the sacrifice, tools to be used, even if it was for a great cause, it still left a bad aftertaste in one's mouth. Some of our unlucky brothers and sisters suffered because they got poor masters. Hah! Let's stop talking about depressing stuff.''

''I wonder how long it will still take for the princess to be done?"

Alex asked when he noticed the bizarre atmosphere in the air. Silveria could only praise his quick witness; she decided to play along.

''Maybe it will last few days. At worst, we might have to spend weeks here.''

''That won't do. I need to see how the others are doing. I have this bad feeling I can't shake off no matter what. I hope everyone is fine. With Sera's presence, I'm less worried, but there's a lot of ways to deal with her, for example, separating her from the rest of the group, and by the time she caught up, they would have done what they came for.''

''Even though there is such a method, I believe that Sera will not go doing; she is full of resources after all. Don't worry; I believe she will be able to keep the girls safe until they finish or until we will assist them.'' Silveria said.

''I understand. Let's wait for Artemia to finish. I wonder how strong she will be once she completed this ceremony?"

To Alex's question, Silveria smiled.

''We will soon discover.''
