Death Guns In Another World

Chapter 1222 [Bonus ] 1129: Meeting With The Empress

A wisp of white flame and black static lightning was discharged from her. It looked like she lost control for a second. The next second, the discharge was cut off. Alice's expression is a bit flushed, it seems like something went wrong.

''It seems that it won't be easy at all,'' Alice remarked before smirking.

She then started shifting between flames and lightning, she would make flames shoot out of her right hand and then shoot out of her left hand while playing with lightning-like some kind of party clown, juggling her newfound powers like she was playing with harmless firecrackers. She demonstrated a control so high it looked like she trained for years in handling these powers.

If someone was here they would have gasped as they got slammed with astonishment, wondering if their eyes weren't playing a trick on them.

"Well..."

Alice juggled flames and lightning while nonchalantly explaining herself.

"The vassals took me by surprise, they tried to pull a quick one on me, what you saw was them making a ruckus within me. Now..."

She chuckled with a confident look.

"Even if they rampage, once they are inside me, they can forget about escaping my control."

The two familiars weren't chill with taking orders from Alice. But, for some unknown reason to them, she could fully utilize them, keeping them in line.

The familiars were sentient so after they figured out their master's abilities, they gave up all notion of rebellion. Instead, they decided to go dormant in her unusual blood, waiting for the day their master called upon them.

The familiars' sentience gave the summoners an added advantage. For instance, because of this, they weren't easily fooled like normal beasts. If the familiars were just blobs of magic power given form without sentience, the vassal beasts would have to be demoted several levels.

But, there were downsides too. Vassal beasts might deem their masters unfit, or incapable, or get frustrated with their masters. Then, these familiars would rampage out of the summoner's control, it's quite common for this to happen when there's a great disparity between the summoner and the familiars. Taken together, these cases were few far and few in between.

Alice's cocksure look drew another look of amazement from a certain spirit secretly watching over her. She shifted her attention to the flames and lightning in his hands. She examined it with a grave look.

Upon closer inspection, she understood that these powers were more terrifying than she had initially assumed. The flames weren't hot and the lightning didn't behave according to the law of physics, she can tell, these powers were entirely different from anything she knew.

Especially that black lightning in Alice's hand, when she laid her eyes on them, she felt terrified.

It's not because the lightning is more powerful than the flames. It just felt like the black lightning is a nemesis to her.

That spirit inhaled deeply as she calmed down before going into a dormant state, it was not the time to meet this child.please visit

Alice had no idea that someone was watching her, even with her sharp senses which would mean, whatever the identity of this person was, she was not weak, this person is extremely powerful or at least extremely good at camouflage, or else Alice would have since a long ago felt its presence, something that didn't happen, testament of the latter party's strength.

While Alice was busy thinking of how to properly use her familiars' power, someone knocked on her door and it was that maid who welcomed them.

''Mistress Alice, my master is calling you, she is waiting inside the garden.'' The maid declared while waiting for Alice's response.

Alice frowned upon hearing the maid's declaration as this master she was talking about can't be Kuina because she was still unconscious, then there's one person left fitting these criteria, Alice thought, Kuina's mother.

''She is fast.'' She thought before she rose to her feet and walked towards the door, opening it she looked at the maid before declaring.

''Lead the way.''

The maid nodded at Alice's request before turning around and guiding Alice until their arrived at the garden.

°°°

A luscious garden of grass is contoured by thick hedges. A pagoda stands in the back left of the garden, still barren, but slowly being overgrown by climbing vines. The flowers and plants are a pride and joy within this garden, as they're very well cared for; they're highlighted with garden lights. The hedges reach 1.5m/5ft high, but this is about as tall as they'll reach. Archways overgrown with flowers are scattered throughout the garden, leading visitors to the best spots. Vines have already begun to crawl their way over and around the garden, eager to claim all pieces of land.

The pagoda can be admired even from every side of the garden. The flowers and plants are surely a sight to behold, and the hedges make sure they're paid attention to as well, but the focus is just simply on the pagoda.

The maid stopped before pointing at the pagoda, Alice understood that from here onward she would have to continue forward alone, which she did.

She didn't have to walk for long before arriving at the pagoda where a woman could be seen sitting with her legs crossed. Her beauty, no words could be used to describe her, she sat there with a regal air surrounding her, she seemed to be loved by the world around her, only a true ruler loved by the world, acknowledged by the world could exude this kind of majesty Alice reckon.

This could be said to be her first time meeting the ruler, the empress of the Foxia Empire, a kingdom that rose to the level of an empire in this generation, under the tight leadership and competent hand of the Iron Fox empress, becoming the third superpower on the Demi-humans continent, no normal woman could accomplish this.

'This woman is truly extraordinary.' Alice assessed, doing her best to get rid of the chilling sensation she felt the moment that woman laid her eyes on her.

'I'm not ordinary either.' Alice declared inwardly while fighting the immense pressure coming from the empress, the latter was impressed, so much that she smiled.

''We finally met Alice from the wonderland.''
