Death Guns In Another World

Alex observed the incoming man stride forward as if currently he was the most important person in the Guild.

The young man was in his late teens to early twenties. Gray hair and black-eyed, height around 1.78m.

For an adventurer, the equipment he was wearing wasn't particularly high quality.

However, the sword equipped at his waist was a different matter, it was something that attracted a lot of looks.

'A Magic sword huh!'

It was like the battle-ax which Diaz used or the bow of the Magic bowman, the ones he acquired after their duel. They were all weapons that help you channel your magic through it.

In other words, a magic item. Because of the magic small power they contained (to maintain the runes engraved on it to keep it functioning), they tended to attract looks from the public eye, that was why even Alex, who couldn't sense foreign magic power like elf or Mage, could tell if it was a magic item.

As for the sword at the waist of the incoming man, the sword gave off an atmosphere of a magic item, that was why he was able to judge that it was a magic sword.

Also, Alex had secretly appraised the sword.

[Magic Sword Akkal.Sword engraved with runes to strengthen the sword wielder when he/she channel his magic power through it.]

''You are Alex, right?"

Alex gave a small nod as the man stopped in front of him and asked.

''And you are?''

''I'm Golfak, A-rank E adventurer.''

Eh! Another Rank E adventurer. In other words, he was at the same rank as Alex. Alex almost laughed aloud when he heard the young man's name.

〖Master, one should laugh when the opportunity is given. Fufufu, this man's parents must have run out of names to have named their son like this.〗Silveria suddenly said almost making Alex burst into laughter.

Ignoring Silveria's comment, Alex focused on the man called Golfak.

''So, Golfak do you need me for something?''

''I had gone out of the city for a long time request, though I came back this morning, and I heard some strange rumors here and there,'' Golfak said.

''Humor please.''

Golfak did not like the tone Alex used to talk to him, nevertheless, he continued with his talk.

''Some crazy rumors, like you jumped from F to almost D in days, like all by yourself you killed 30 goblins and a rare species on top of it like you bested Diaz and his men by yourself.''

'You don't believe it?' Alex looked at him while thinking that. It was clear that he didn't believe Alex, the adventurer in the rumor that had done all these amazing feats.

'Jealousy, huh?! Well, either way, he's not a decent opponent for me.'

Muttering in his mind, Alex let out a heavy sigh.

''Hey, what's with the sigh?''

''You have a lot of time to waste. So, how can I help you, Golfak, the E Rank Adventurer?'' Alex asked with a bored look.

Golfak's face twitched when he saw the bored look Alex was giving him and blood rushed to his head.

But though the blood rushed to Golfak's head, after clicking his tongue as if he didn't care, he started to explain what he wants.

''What I want, it's pretty simple. I want you to have a match with me. I want to see your ability that defeated the rare species.''

'As I thought.'

〖This kind of person is too predictable.〗Silveria said.

Indeed it was as she said, the moment he saw Golfak walking toward him, Alex knew it was going to end with him saying he wants to duel against him.

As he had said it earlier, Golfak won't make a decent opponent for him because he was too much ahead of him in terms of Level.

'His Level is not bad for an E Rank Adventurer.'

Alex honestly thought as he remembered the man's status.

Mistaking Alex's silence for him being afraid of accepting the challenge, Golfak had a smug expression on his face.

On the other hand, Alex turned his head back, and coincidentally it was in the direction of Gracier, Leena, and other Adventurers, seeing the evil grin on his face, they looked at Golfak with pity.

Again, mistaking the look directed at him to be directed at Alex, Golfak's smile widened, his confidence skyrocketed.

'Hehehe, I'll use you as a stepping stone to build my imminent ascension.' Golfak thought.

Meanwhile, Alex was amused by Golfak's confidence.

''And what benefits will I receive from this match?'' Alex suddenly asked.

''Huh?''

'What's are you saying?'

Golfak's face seemed to say this as he looked at Alex. Golfak had planned to pick a fight and provoke Alex into an unconditional fight, however his plan had just failed.'

'Hehehe. Is that kid serious? Picking a fight with Alex when the man could kill a goblin Rare species and a Queen Ant?"

''Haven't you heard him speak earlier? That Wolfak whatever guy wasn't in the city for a while. Him, acting recklessly after coming back and heard Alex's accomplishments can't be helped when he did not witness them.''

''Ah well. It's understandable, though. Not knowing anything about Alex but picking a fight with him. At any rate, even you will react like him if you were in his shoes and saw a pretty looking man who the rumors said have accomplished exceptional feats. You will think, this handsome man must use all his time to take care of himself than seriously fighting monsters, it must be someone else accomplishing those feats in his stead.''

''I got it but that last part was your inner soul jealous of Alex's handsome face speaking.''

Alex's lips twitched when he heard the previous Adventurer's comment.

Though the noise of adventurers speaking in low voices echoed through the guild, Golfak was too focused on Alex so he didn't hear any of them.In the eyes of the adventurers, Golfak was like some sort of hero.

However, he was a hero in the sense that he was like a brave man attacking a dragon with a stick he just picked. He was bound to lose.

Anyhow, Alex had scored a clean victory against the E rank party lead by Diaz by himself a few days ago and because he took away all their money and equipment that they had on them, even if most of the Adventurers were dissatisfied with this, his behavior still stood out.

Everybody began to fear challenging him because they will lose their valuables in case they don't win.

Golfak only just returned to town and hearing the rumors, he went straight to Alex without understanding anything.

Anyway, he judged that Alex had just gone up to rank E because of an influential person while he was at the stage where he would soon be taking the rank up test to rank D.

In a sense, it could be said that this was one of the prices of fame.

''Anyway, you should just fight me. This way, I can properly access your ability. Or what is it? If you can defeat a Rare species, don't you have the confidence to fight an E rank Adventurer like me?" Golfak tried to taunt Alex.

Alex couldn't help but smile bitterly while thinking.

'So, you are going play it like this?'

Believing only what they wanted to believe in, this was the only reality visible to them. Golfak was this type of person.

''I'm trying to say, whether I can beat you or not is a different thing. I'm asking you to show me the benefits of having a match against you. Because believe me, I'm not fighting against you for free.'' Alex explained.

''What do you want then?"

''Offer something if you want to fight me or scram,''

Alex said he was already getting bored, and most importantly he was wasting his time here. He was planning to help his sister advance into the next Rank.

''Guh! but it's only checking your skills. Alright, if you beat me I'll give you 2 Gold coins. How about it?" Golfak finally said after a long consideration.

''Nah! That won't do. To make it fair let's say if Iwin I'll take that Magic Sword of yours and in the case, I lost I'll give you 10 Golden coins."

Alex automatically rejected Golfak proposal and suggested another one.

Golfak hesitated, his Magic sword was worth 8 Gold coins, if he wins he could buy another one but it was just that he became attached to his current one after the storms they went through even though he had other swords as well.

''Okay, I accept.''

Finally, Golfak accepted after a long analysis, his greed won over his so-called attachment.

''Well, it's great. It will be troublesome if we make any more noise here. So, where do you want to do it?'' Alex said glancing at Golfak.

Most of the Adventurers were looking at Golfak with eyes filled with pity, he was going to lose his Magic Sword because of his greed.

Smiling with a face full of confidence, Golfak turned his eyes in the direction of the guild door.

''Let's do it outside. It will be finished soon anyway.''

The nearby adventurers could not help smile as they couldn't wait to watch a good show.
