Death Guns In Another World

''Yes.''

Sera immediately accepted Alex's proposal, which surprised him because he had expected her to show some resistance, but unexpectedly she accepted right away.

''Good. Please bless and may your soul rest in peace.'' Alex said, concluding his prayers.

The two departed after Sera spent another few minutes silently talking with her mother.

On their way back, Sera chuckled. ''What a sly move.''

Alex smiled; he had expected her to say something like this.

''I know, but I thought it was the right opportunity to declare how he felt, letting my mother-in-law know that I'm sincere about dating her daughter. And from what I could tell, she seemed to have a son-in-law like me. She accepted, and I'm also happy that finally, you acknowledged our relationship. We will start for real this time. Please take care of me from now on. Always stay beside me.''

''Likewise. And I know how you feel; I saw your sincerity; it was why I accepted. It's time for me to experience what love is. I'm delighted that my mother witnessed that moment and gave us her blessing.''

Sera's reply warmed Alex's heart, and he grabbed her hand and entwined their fingers together. At first, Sera's body stiffened at this sudden show of affection, but she gradually relaxed her body, enjoying this feeling.

The two walked aimlessly in the vicinity when suddenly Alex stopped causing Sera to react.

''Alex, why did you stop? Is there any problem?" She asked, but Alex only pointed his finger forward.

Twenty meters from them was a group passing by, one woman and two men whose faces seemed to have gone through something rough. Sera may not have gone to the academy, but she was able to identify this group as soon she saw them. Camilla, Kevin, and Dodolus from Leonardo's group.

Seeing their current state, it was not hard to guess what they went through. They must still be searching for their leader whereabout, not knowing that the one they had looked down upon a few years ago knew where he was.

Maybe because they felt someone's eyes on them, one of them looked in Alex's direction; it was Kevin.

''Geh! Alex.'' His face turned ugly upon seeing Alex.

Finally, Camilla and Dodolus noticed Alex; unexpectedly, Camilla strode toward Alex with a weary smile.

''Greeting, Alex. How have you been?'' She asked.

''I'm doing fine, as you can see. What about you? Not so great from I can see.'' Alex responded and nodded to Dodolus, who made eye contact with him.

''Yes, we are busy searching for Leonardo, as you can see.''

''Oh! I see. This Sera, my girlfriend.'' Alex nodded while introducing Sera, who confirmed his words.

''Sera Wexon, Alex's girlfriend.''

''Wow! Nice to meet you, Sera. I'm Camilla Asmar. Those are my brothers, Kevin and Dodolus. Please, you two, say hi.'' Camilla introduced the group.

''Tch! I'm Kevin.'' As usual, Kevin acted like a gangster while Dodolus being Dodolus, only nodded.

''Forgive them. One is an idiot while the other is a shy one.'' Camilla said with a smile which made Kevin's eyes turn red.

''Fuck! Who are you calling, idiot Camilla? Do you want-"

Kevin stopped mid-sentence when he felt his sister's murderous intent.

Chuckle!

Sera chuckled, seeing this. Alex sighed and was about to say something, but Camilla beat him first and asked.

''Alex, can I talk with you?"

Alex was about to refuse her, saying as she could see he was busy accompanying his girlfriend, but the girlfriend in question seemed okay because he pinched his waist, stopping him from refusing.

''Let's go over there and eat. We are hungry; what about you?" Sera asked, pointing at a nearby restaurant.

Coincidentally it was one of Alex's restaurants, the Golden Spoon.

Kevin's eyes shone when he noticed that, and he couldn't help sarcastically comment.

''The great almighty Alexander won't mind paying for our dinner, won't he?"

''I'm not your mother, nor I'm your father. You pay for what you eat.'' Alex responded before entering the restaurant; the manager identified him immediately and moved the group to the highest floor in a VIP room.

Kevin grumbled and cursed at Alex. ''Damn you. Acting all cocky just because you accomplished a little bit and have a bit of money. If it weren't for Leonardo, I would have surpassed you.''

Alex glared at the annoying man; this was one of the reasons he didn't wish to speak with this group, because of this chatterbox. He was getting fed up with the constant jab at him; he must put him in his place; if not, he would continue.

However, there was someone who acted faster than him.

''Can you shut up and stop acting like a child for a minute?" Sera, who couldn't take it anymore, asked.

''What?" Kevin was shocked while Dodolus sighed. Camilla whistled and decided to let Sera handle her troublesome brother.

''Who do you think you are talking to me like that?" Kevin shouted. He was furious hearing Alex's exploits here and there; it reminded him that the one he had once thought was beneath him had grown to a point he couldn't compare to. His inferiority complex kicked in, resulting in extreme jealousy. While he was fuming, they encountered Alex, who made him this way, they were invited by his girlfriend, and this girlfriend thought she was important enough to raise her voice against him; he couldn't let this pass.

''Do you truly wish to know who I am?" Sera asked with a chilly voice. Camilla and Dodolus frowned, feeling chill.

Unprecedented feelings of fear arose, and Kevin felt his scalp blistering. He had goosebumps all over his body. He felt like someone held a dagger against his neck; any wrong move and his head would fly in the air.

Gulp!

He gulped, filling fear he hadn't felt in a while. This brown-haired beauty was dangerous; she wasn't someone he could face; neither could face her. It was instinctual, this feeling of powerless.

''That's enough. Let's eat, and once we finish, you will tell me what you want.'' Alex's powerful voice echoed through the VIP room, stopping things from escalating.

Camilla, who knew Alex was talking to her, nodded, and the group began eating shortly after.
