Death Guns In Another World

821 Chapter 795

The following day, the capital Kyo became lively, and streets were decorated, announcing that the festivities would begin soon. It was three days celebration, and nobody liked to miss out because, during these three days, people would celebrate and pray to the gods in the shrines. While culture here was different from that of Japan, it tends to stay faithful to Japanese culture; after all, the person who created this empire was but a Japanese.

In Alex's temporary villa every was busy preparing for the festival. Sakuya was the happiest because Omatsuri reminded her of her hometown, Japan. Today than ever, she felt like she was back to the time she would go to masturi with her father and mother holding their hand and acting spoiled; those days could be said to be her happiest days until they moved out to the states after her mother's death.

The second happiest was none other than Gracier; this would be her first festival; she who was born and spent fourteen years of her life inside a small village cut off from everything until that tragedy and what followed after. This would be her first major event, her first time going to a festival; of course, she would be happy. During yesterday's shopping spree, she had trouble finding the right yukata; she brought more than seven yukatas; she was not the only one, though the others also did the same thing.

Finally, Gracier settled for a red flower patterns yukata with a matching red obi belt, a black kinkachu pouch, and red geta sandals. As for her hairstyle, she opted for a Phoenix Ombre with big curls at the end. And with her pointy ears, the Touch's family little princess seemed like a cosplayer; if she was on Earth, she might have won the trophy for the best cosplay of the year.

Gracier came out to see her brother dressed in black yukata with a matching eye patch.

''You are really beautiful, my little sister,'' Alex said when Gracier walked out, and with a dazzling smile, she responded.

''Thank you, brother. You're also handsome. Where are the others?" She couldn't help but ask after scanning her surrounding but saw no one else other than her brother and her. She thought she would be among the last to arrive, but it doesn't seem to be the case.

''Oh! The others? They are probably busy making themselves beautiful. I can never understand why women are like that. They take too much time for the simplest things.'' Alex complained, but his sister chuckled hearing his complaint.

''Big brother, you can never understand. It's a woman's thing. Let's wait for a while. I'm sure they will come out because it's almost time for the festival to begin. I'm very excited. Thank you, brother, for granting me this chance to experience something like this. I will be forever grateful for everything you have done for me, and I promise I'll be the universe's cutest yet strongest little sister. Like this, I will be able to carry some of your burdens. Thank you very much.''

Alex's eyes widened at the unexpected declaration; he smiled before hugging his sister and declaring.

''Thank you too for appearing in my life when I needed most emotional support. All I want for you is to live your life happily, doing what you want. You don't have to burden yourself with my problems.''

Alex could feel his sister's body tensing, and he knew she must want to refute his words, but he was not done yet.

''Don't worry, I will ask for your help when needed. Just enjoy your life and do your best to stay alive no matter what will happen in the future because only like this you will repay me what I did for you.''

''I understood, Big brother,'' Gracier promised, and Alex smiled.

''Wow! What a lovely speech. Do we come back later?" Sakuya teased.

''Why bother? I know you have been there for a while already.'' Alex answered while separating from his sister.

''Finally, you're here,'' Gracier said before joining Maria and others. She must admit, as a woman herself, she was smitten when she saw how gorgeous her sisters-in-law were. Every one of them was beautiful in their yukatas.

''How do you see us?" Maria said before spinning, giving Alex a full view of her white yukata with a blue obi belt matching her ice-blue eyes; she held a dark blue kinkachu pouch and light blue geta sandals.

''You are all really beautiful, and I mean it,'' Alex said while observing each one of them. As he had just said, they are all beautiful.

Luna wore golden flower patterns, yukata with a white obi belt, a black kinkachu pouch, and geta sandals. With her hair letting loose, it matched the yukata.

Sakuya wore a black yukata, and her hair was tied in a ponytail.

Lastly, there was Saeko, who wore a blue yukata. She smiled when she heard Alex complimenting them. No woman would not feel happy when she was praised, especially when she took her time to dress up to look good in front of a man. It was like all her efforts got rewarded.

''Hum! I envy the lucky bastard who will have the honor to accompany five beauties, no six beauties.'' Alex said while rubbing his nonexistent beard.

The girls rolled their eyes at him when Maria said.

''Wait, what do you mean six? We are five here, or don't tell she will come out?"

Thinking of a certain someone, Maria's eyes widened. Alex nodded, and it didn't take the others except for Saeko, who had never seen her, to understand who would come out.

''Sigh!" Sakuya sighed.

''Oh?! Sakuya, what was that for?" A sweet voice reached Sakuya's ears right from behind, making her heart jump in fright.

It was unknown since when she appeared behind her, she hadn't felt her presence at all.

Saeko was spellbound by this woman's beauty. As a woman herself, she had never felt so attracted to someone of the same gender before. It was how beautiful this woman in question was. Her beauty was not something from this world.

Long silver hair with a pair of alluring beautiful silver eyes, she was not tall, not curvaceous as Maria, but her beauty was many levels above her, or any other women present here. The silver-haired beauty was dressed in silver yukata with a black obi belt and silver geta sandals. In her hand was a red kinkachu pouch.

''Saeko, don't stare too much even I can feel embarrassed.'' The silver-haired beauty said while winking at Saeko. Her body trembled as if an electric shock had run through it; she forgot that this beauty had just called her name even though she had never seen her before.

[She is a weapon's spirit like me but a high-level one. I'm not worthy to even carry her shoes. There is another existence in that boy who is more dangerous than anything I have ever felt. I got shivers just by mentioning this.] Saeko's gift spirit suddenly said, shocking Saeko, she was finally aware of the silver-haired beauty's identity, and she became curious about her idol's secrets; more than ever, she wanted to dig out all of his secrets.

Meanwhile, Maria and Gracier rolled their eyes at Silveria, who couldn't get more shameless.

'In the end, she didn't come out.' Alex sighed; he had hoped that Nyx would come out and enjoy the fun with them; he tried to persuade her but failed; Silveria had promised to try to make her sister join in the fun, but seeing Nyx not appearing would mean she had failed. This left Alex depressed as he desired to spend some time with Nyx; it was not good that she would stay holed up all time in her dimension; it was too boring and lonely. He thought they had become closer enough for her not to be lonely any longer, but he guessed it was his wishful thinking.

While Alex was lost in thoughts feeling depressed, someone else felt the same.

''It's good to see you, Lady Silveria,'' Maria said, trying to be respectful. She didn't like dealing with this troublemaker, but she was bound to her man; she didn't have a choice.

''Ah? Who are calling lady dear Maria?'' Silveria asked with her brows creased together.

Maria didn't answer; Sakuya felt compelled to massage her temple while Gracier being Gracier, answered in Maria's stead.

''Obviously, it's you, Lady Silveria.'' She said.

''Oh? Even you Gracier? I'm sad; look at me. I'm the same age as you. Look at my beautiful skin. I'm- Ouch!"

Alex didn't let Silveria finish before giving her a chop on the head, and before she could complain, he put something inside her hands.

''A mask?" Silveria asked, confused; it was a white fox mask.

''Put it on.'' He ordered, and Silveria didn't dare to go against his order as she could feel Alex's current mood which was not great. It must be because of my sister, she thought.

Maria and others nodded, pleased with Alex's decision to make Silveria put on a mask; it would help lessen the amount of trouble her beauty would cause if left like that.

''Let's go,'' Alex said before taking the lead. Maria stood on his right while Luna was on his left. Gracier was walking together with Sakuya, and Silveria exchanged jokes with Saeko.
