Death Guns In Another World

964 Chapter 931

'What did you think? Can you now erase my curse?" She asked half hopefully, but Alex's answer was negative.

''Impossible.''

''It is that so?'' Elseria said, a little bit discouraged. She had expected such an answer but still, hearing it hurts her.

''My bad I meant it is impossible for me right to remove your curse because your curse is special than the other. Bahamut must have waited you enough to put this kind of complicated curse on you.'' Alex explained with a apologetic face.

''Ah ok I see. I shall wait again.'' She declared with a smile, her mood had obviously improved. Previously she was afraid that it would take a lot of time, however judging from his expression it wouldn't take that long she concluded.

There was something Typhania didn't tell Alex, since both Artemia and Lilith had their curse erased, she had become impatient as she felt like she was the only left but now that she confirmed it won't be long before she would have her curse erased she had calmed down.

After chatting with her for another twenty minutes Alex departed, returning to the Lionheart Empire, tomorrow they would be leaving, so he needed to rest.

°°°°°°

The next morning.

Alex's group temporally villa.

As the first ray of sunlight crack through the night sky, Alex was still sleeping. He was sleeping without any care in the world, almost as if he had forgotten that today they must depart toward the Foxia empire where Kuina, the fox princess would be waiting.

A minute later, the chirping of the birds entered his ears. The brilliant beams of sunlight passed through the open windows and fell on his face. He unconsciously placed a hand over his eyes but more sunlight basked his face.

''Five minutes more please.'' He mumbled while trying to escape from the morning sunlight but as if the latter was stubborn, it followed him even when he moved to the other side of the bed.

Having no choice, Alex rose up. He stretched his hands while feeling the sunlight kissing his cheeks. He left the bed and walked towards the window. A gentle gust of cool breeze greeted his face as he looked out.

The chunk of lights in the sky expanded in size and sparkle. The beams were cool and rather soothing to the eyes.

There was an ethereal beauty to the sunlight, as if a layer of tinted filtering had been added in the sky. Everything was in honeyed tones, beautiful and soothing. Alex moved her hand through the air, watching her fingers. It was almost as if the light was amber nectar, flowing in slow and graceful swirls.

He lowered his head to see the plants and trees outside the garden. The dew drops were glistening on the leaves and they sparkled under the sunlight.

He looked ahead and noticed many groups of people on the streets not too far from the villa. Stalls were being set and shops opened for work. There were peace and tranquility lingering everywhere his eyes reached.

"Last day here," Alex thought with a smile. He then closed the windows and turned around. He took a step ahead and his body vanished in a puff of smoke.

His speed was second to none and he used his lightning-fast movements to freshen up. He went downstairs after finishing, he thought he would surprise the girls by preparing today breakfast but on the contrary they were the ones surprising him by preparing the breakfast before he descended.

''Morning!" Maria said and handed him a cup of hot coffee.

''Morning girls.'' Alex greeted them before sitting on a chair offered by Saeko. After exchanging a light greetings, Alex enjoyed the breakfast unexpectedly cooked by Maria.

''It was delicious. Good work. I'm looking forward to eating your breakfast more often.'' Alex offered those heartfelt words at the end of the breakfast.

Maria was overjoyed at those words because she felt like her efforts were being rewarded, she was not a good at cooking, truth be told before reincarnating to Mysthia, she had never cooked herself before, but things changed when arriving here, she had to know at least how to cook if she didn't wish to fall being others who knew how to cook. There is a saying that the road to conquer a man's heart is through his stomach, so naturally she must know how to cook and in order to catch up to others she started training, finally she could cook a simple breakfast and she was happy that he enjoyed her effort.

Today breakfast was soft pancakes and berries, as warm as they would be in the sun, maple syrup threaded upon the top.

After eating the breakfast, everyone started preparing to depart toward the Foxia empire.

Saeko asked Alex to spare her few minutes and naturally he accepted.

''So what do you have to say to me?" Alex asked her as soon they were alone.

''I want to ask you a favor. Can you take me back for a moment. I've something to do on the other side?'' She asked and Alex didn't even ask her what she was planning to do. He knew whatever she had planned, it must have been important for her to ask for his help. He had accepted taking her, he was the one that invited her, so naturally he ought to be present when she needs him.

''Okay, we are leaving immediately right?'' He accepted which surprised Saeko. She had expected at least one question, for example what did she want to do once back? However, instead of asking her any question he directly accepted and even asked if they were going immediately or not.

''Yes! Let's go immediately.'' She said before adding.

''I have already informed the others and they accepted.''

''Okay. Let's go.'' Alex nodded before taking her hand as they stepped accros space and disappeared.

Right after they gone, Sakuya and Luna walked in, looking around Sakuya declared.

''They are gone it seems?"

''Yeah it seems.'' Luna responded.

''Let's hope she will make a good use of this chance.'' She added with a mysterious smile.

Foxia's Empire.

Polished braziers enclosing each of the six granite columns light up every part of the throne hall and shroud it in a dark orange radiance. The relatively simple stonework on the embowed ceiling dance in the flickering light while statuettes and marble icons look down upon the wooden floor of this luxurious hall.

A lilac rug splits the entire room in half and was matched by the thinner ones on either side of the hall while embattled banners with gilded ornaments the walls. Between each banner hangs a small chandelier, a few of them have been lit and in turn illuminate the artistic portrayals of royalty long gone below them.

Grand, stained glass windows depicting ancient legends are neighbored by draperies colored the same lilac as the banners. The curtains have been adorned with embellished borders and decorated tips.

A towering throne of oak sat atop an elevated platform and was adjoined by three almost identical seats for visiting dignitaries.

The throne was covered in symbolic patterns and fixed on each of the slim ears is an abstract petal. The fluffy pillows were a light lilac and these too had been adorned with adorned sigils.

Those listening to their royal highness could do so on the several decorated, but somewhat uncomfortable granite benches, all of which are facing the center of the hall. Those of higher standing could instead take seat in the specially decorated balustrades facing the throne.

Currently, the Foxia empire's ruler, the eight tailed empress sat atop the throne calming waiting for the visitor to come in and shortly later she arrived. It was none other than her daughter, Kuina.

''Mother, you called?"

''Yes! Sit next to me.'' The empress said to her daughter as soon as she walked in.

''Show me your status.'' She ordered and Kuina obeyed.

''Not bad. You have been training well. Just a little bit and you will step into the next realm. Well done my daughter.'' The empress complimented her daughter.

''Thank you mother but I believe complimenting me isn't the reason why you called me here.'' Kuina was not really in the mood.

The empress could sigh as she was planning to use this opportunity to get closer to her daughter.

''Okay, how many tails have you unlocked now?" She finally asked one of the reasons why she summoned her daughter.
