Death Guns In Another World

The moment Chris, their teacher announced Alex as the winner. The whole stadium burst into a loud cheer.

"Beautiful fight."

Zero gave honest praise. Alpha acquiesced. After giving one glance in Alex's direction they left.

On the other side, Gracier and Co were cheering as well. While Maria was also feeling happy for Alex's victory, she was made aware of the painful difference between them, and being a competitive woman, she decided to compete for second place. Looking at Artemia, she decided to become the strongest of Alex's women. Seemingly, she had forgotten that Artemia wasn't Alex's woman. 

''Alex has become stronger, stronger than any of us.'' Sakuya's sudden words brought Maria back. 

''Indeed. How ironic. He was weaker than any of us. However, now he is the strongest. Looks at them, they thought they were the chosen ones mocking him. Never look down on anybody. I hope he will learn to be humble from now on and stop finding trouble with Alex.'' Maria said while looking at Leonardo, the latter was biting his thumb, probably unhappy that Alex won.

Sakuya couldn't help laugh,

''Stop your wishful thinking. Look at him, he won't stop. His hatred for Alex will cause his downfall.'' 

''I guess you're right.'' Maria couldn't help but acknowledge Sakuya's words. Leonardo was glaring at Alex. If gaze could murder Alex would have been dead. Even though he was trying to hide it, his hatred for Alex was visible. 

''Sigh! I wonder why he hated Alex so much? To me, we should stick together in this foreign world as we know nothing about the end goal of those who gave us power. Together we are stronger.'' Sakuya said while wondering what is the real intention of Goddess Mea and others. 

Shrugging her shoulders Maria respond, ''I don't know but I have the feeling that we will sound found out. What we need to do the most right now is to get stronger. Dungeons are here to help us.'' 

''I hope we will be put in the same group.'' Luna who had just joined them said this. 

''I thought you would want to be with your fiancé.'' Sakuya teased Luna while looking at Alex who was coming towards them. Artemia has been evacuated. Lilith followed after her after giving Alex a thumb up. It was her way of saying 'You have done a great job.' 

''I would have been happy if it was possible but it's not as Alex and Artemia will be sent to explore a special medium dungeon. It is what has been decided.'' Luna informed them about Chris's decision as the two were too focused on their talk to have heard him. 

''Medium dungeon? Just the two of them?" Maria couldn't help but ask this.

''No, one person will follow them. However, it won't be among us, students.'' Luna explained.

While the girls were discussing Chris's decision, Alex who was walking toward them got stopped. When he turned around to see who was the person that stopped him, he was surprised to find out that it was the second princess. 

''Congratulation on your victory. It was a beautiful match.'' Katherina said while trying to put on a warm smile. 

Even she didn't know what got into her but when she saw Alex passing by, she decided to say a word, fully knowing that Alex may not respond as he doesn't like her.

Alex's face was cold as an iceberg, ''Thank you, your highness.'' 

He didn't want for her to say anything else before departing. 

Looking at his departing back, those who followed her wanted to stop Alex as they found his behaviors disrespectful. While his status may be exceptional, it was not to the extent that he would not put the princess of the strongest empire in his eyes. 

''Stop it. It's fine he must be tired after such a fight. Let's leave.'' 

Strangely, Katherina was not angry over what happened, on the contrary, she even stopped her subordinates from intervening. Reluctantly, Katherina's subordinates left. 

While departing Katherina couldn't help but lament at how blind the past her had been. 

''Hope isn't late.'' She mumbled. 

On the other hand, Alex was having a chat with Silveria. 

〖Master are you angry?〗Silveria asked. 

Alex didn't answer. Silveria couldn't help but sigh, she finally noticed that her master was angry.

As proof of the anger that he was feeling at the moment, his lips curved upward slightly and a slight smile escaped from his mouth... Just like what happened to many people when their anger reached a certain level, Alex began to laugh softly as he walked. 

He couldn't be blamed, someone considered you to be worthless, however, after some events the same person that insulted you want to use you as she found you useful. How can you not be angry? You will be a fool if you just laugh off.

''Lex who made you so angry?" Luna asked when she saw her man's face. 

It was then it dawned on him that he had already arrived at where the others were. 

Shaking his head Alex said, ''Forget it, it's not worth mentioning.'' 

''Welcome back Big brother. That was some nice fight.'' Gracier jumped on his back and said. 

The others couldn't help but smile seeing this scene. 

Suddenly, Alex held Gracier tightly and spun to punch the air. 

Bang! 

He was pushed a couple of steps back. His hand feels numb. Looking at Leon who was rubbing his hand, Alex smiled and said, 

''That was a nice punch.'' 

''I call it Fire Punch. To think that you would not have the slightest burn mark on your hand after taking my punch as expected your physical is not ordinary. I smell a little bit of dragon aura coming from your body.'' Leon announced. He just tested his newly created skill on Alex. Unfortunately, it didn't work.

When Alex heard Leon's words, he almost shouted 'Are you a dog?' However, he stopped himself. 

And before he could say anything, they both feel a cold stare on their backs. The girls were glaring at them as if to say 'There is place and time for everything.' 

Suddenly, everyone stopped talking and looked in a certain direction. Maria, Luna, and Sakuya's expression turned frosty. 

Looking in that direction Alex said a handsome blue-haired coming toward them. Even though it was his first time seeing him, he could say with certainty who is this man. 

The first prince, Adler Acres Von Havens. 

Alex heard Leon's heavy sigh. Kuina was smiling, however, it was a kind of playful smile. 

The first prince arrived before their group. Quickly scanning their group, his eyes lasted for a moment on Maria and Luna. When he was looking at Luna, his expression changed for a split second before going back to normal. 

Normal people may have noticed this, however, with his sharp senses Alex noticed it. The first prince's eyes turned cold when he noticed the ring on Luna's finger. 

Finally looking at Alex after giving others quick greetings, Adler said, ''Isn't it the famous Alexender the eighth. I have heard about you and indeed you didn't disappoint me.'' 

While saying so, Adler held out his hand, Alex caught it and both smiled while shaking hands. 

''Nice to meet you.'' 

''Same here.'' 

The two didn't stop shaking hands after five minutes passed. Leon and others were looking at them strangely wondering what they were up to. 

Finally, they stopped shaking hands as if nothing happened. However, those with a sharp sight noticed that Adler's hand was red as if swollen, he did his best to hide it, though. 

Leon who had understood what happened couldn't help but chuckle. 

''Something seemed funny Lionheart's crown prince?" Adler asked. 

''Pff! No. I just remembered some funny event.'' Leon responded, doing his best to not laugh. 

''Oh?! Care to share it?" Adler asked curiously.

Leon's lips twitched before he cleared his throat and explained. 

''It was a scholar that wanted to act strong in front of a martial artist with his meager strength, however, he got crushed. A-" 

''Pfff! Hahaha! We understood so there is no need to continue your story.'' Alex laughed hard. 

How can he not understand what Leon meant? All of them understood what he meant, the bold one couldn't help but glance at a certain someone's hand. 

Aware of the gazes on him, Adler did his best to not curse. While maintaining a smiling face, he said. 

''That's some nice story, but remember martial artist may be strong but a country will not work without a scholar. I shall take my leave. See you later. Miss Maria, miss Luna have a nice evening.'' 

Adler departed after leaving these words behind. 

''How about me dear prince. You seem to have forgotten about me. Are you afraid of me?" Sakuya asked with a naughty smile. 

Adler who was walking ahead faltered almost falling face first, he quickly controlled his body and scurried away as if running away from a nightmare. 

''I wonder what you did to make him so afraid of you.'' Alex couldn't help but ask seeing Adler's pathetic back. 

Sakuya smiled mysteriously w ''Who knows.''

Before she added, ''However, I must say Leon that was some good job you did there. I haven't noticed anything.'' 

Leon scratched his head while laughing. 

''I never appreciated him. He is too foul of himself. He is worst than Katherina.'' Leon said. 

''Indeed. I was trying to tease him but you beat me to it.'' Kuina announced. 

The others couldn't help but laugh. Thinking that Adler has been lucky. 

After chatting and joking for a while, the group separated. Alex left accompanied by Luna and Gracier. 

Dungeons exploration will start in three days.
