Death Guns In Another World

[????]

In a middle of a beautiful garden filled with many exotic flowers, two silhouettes could be seen sitting around a table in the middle of these flowers.

The two silhouettes were women of extreme beauty; their beauty wasn't something humans could have.

Mea, the goddess who was in charge of Alex and his group's reincarnation, sighed while looking at the black-haired beauty before her; it was her long-time friend who goes by the name of Nix.

''Nix, how is the situation?"

Finally breaking the silence, goddess Mea asked.

''Well, it's pretty bad. More worlds are falling, and a few gods sent down have perished. Hehehe! The situation is so ridiculous that it's almost funny.''

Goddess Nix's laughed at the end of her sentence, but it was just an empty laugh to hide her frustrations.

Nowadays, the situation is becoming more and more dangerous. Chaos was spreading further into the universe, swallowing more worlds.

The situation had become dire; not even them, beings cut above others, were able to do anything in this current situation. They failed. How could they succeed when their creators failed to stop chaos from spreading. After their first failure and the original world got destroyed, they arrived with lots of solutions, such as creating strong beings to control the world barrier; these beings were called Gods; they weren't many gods, and they were capable enough to stop the spreading of the chaos.

Another solution was to search for suitable contractors for the most powerful Gifts that had been hibernating. Once suitable candidates were found, they would be reincarnated into new worlds and would have the opportunity to contract with those powerful Gifts. The ultimate goal of this plan was to create a group capable of fighting against the chaotic beings, capable of stopping the universe from getting completely swallowed.

Things were going smoothly until recently when chaos conquered more worlds and had almost swallowed more than half of the existing worlds; in the blink of an eye, the situation had changed for the worse, leaving the Gods with nothing but headaches, they started doubting if they could ever succeed stopping him, he was still sealed yet he had already conquered more than half of the existing worlds, it was to the extent of beyond scary.

The only thing the gods could do was to pray and hope that the champions they had selected for the last gamble to succeed. Those champions are Alex's group, former classmates, and a few other people from some unknown world.

''How are your champions doing?" Nix asked Mea about Alex's group.

''They are progressing on their own; I wish I could help them more, especially the owner of the death guns, but as you know, it's hard to intervene in such a lower world without suffering a big backlash; besides, it would be like going against his orders,'' Mea explained while giving Nix a summary of Alex and others adventures.

''Hahaha! Your assumption was right that the fellow called Alexander was not your typical nobody. He is far more powerful than any other champion; his potential is limitless; not only does he contract to the strongest Gift in the universe, something even that man coveted, but he seemed to be a unique existence himself, how intriguing. I wished I was the one in charge of him. Or will you change him with someone from my side?"

''Sorry, that won't do.'' Mea flatly refused Nix's proposition, and the latter only chuckled in response.

''I thought so.''

''What are you trying to do now, Mea? Will you immediately head to the higher World or wait for a while?" Nix asked.

''I will stay for a while before leaving. It would be best if you went back. I pray for your safety.''

''I pray for your safety too but let me give you a piece of advice: don't get too attached to your champion.''

Leaving those words behind, Nix vanished.

''Not get attached, huh?! It's hard when you watch someone for two lifetimes, but you don't have to worry. I know what my priorities are. Everything is for the sake of winning.'' Goddess Mea mumbled those words before closing her eyes; she couldn't wait for Alex's group to leave Mysthia, going into the real stage where the slightest mistake might be fatal.

''I'm looking forward to our reunion.'' She added.

Back in Mysthia.

In one of the private villas owned by the Lionheart family, three silhouettes could be seen sitting around a round table. Leon, Eris, and Kuina.

''Welcome, you two. How have you been?" Leon asked after looking at Eris and Kuina. There was a sharp aura around Eris's testimony of her progress, while Kuina's charm had gotten stronger testimony of how dangerous she had become.

Leon was slightly surprised; it had been a few days since they had last seen each other, but to think they would have progressed this much, was beyond normal, but Leon understood why this was happening; it was because of that monster. When you have a monster as your friend, your genuine friend, you would not want to lose against him, so you would do your best to catch up to this friend because only like you will consider yourself his friend.

Alex's progress made one jealous, jealous of wanting to be like him. The three wanted to travel with him, so they have at least capable of doing this much.

''I'm fine,'' Eris responded; compared to her dejected self after her twin's brother's death, she was now exuding more confidence than ever. Her complexion had become rosy, meaning she was back to how she was when her brother was still alive.

''I'm happy to hear that,'' Leon said while shifting his eyes on Kuina's; it was then he noticed that she had seven tails; there was even an illusionnary eighth tail.

Gulp!

Leon unconsciously gulped, thinking that Kuina might not be less powerful than him. This was quite frustrating as he thought he had put some distance between them, but after seeing this, even without seeing her status, he was aware they were on par in terms of strength; no, she was slightly better.

'Shit, this fox.'
