Death Guns In Another World

Chapter 160 - 158: The Banquet 2

The Holy Son, Damien Constantine Crux walked with a slow and steady pace until he stopped in front of Alex and the others, no more accurately, he stopped in front of Luna. 

The hall turned silent, everybody was waiting to see what he would do. 

Damien curtsied and with a smile he announced, 

''Greetings, Lady Saintess Luna Heart. It's my honor to be able to see your peerless beauty that brightens the world. I'm the Holy Son Damien Constantine Crux, I'm here to invite you to our Holy Crux Empire.-" 

''I refuse.'' Luna's answer was flat, there was no emotion behind her words. She didn't let Damien finish whatever he was planning to say before cutting him off and refused.

Sakuya was smiling nobody knows what she was thinking at the moment while Maria's face became cold.

Alex was looking at Damien with interest, even though he was shameless, he couldn't say something like that. 

?I don't like him.?Silveria spat. 

Gracier also seems to be sharing the same feeling, she had a look of disgust when she heard Damien's words. 

While the others in the hall were surprised by the sudden declaration and Luna's refusal. Leonardo was furious. 

'How dare he, to covet my woman. He must've death wish.' 

Camilla who was looking at her man could not help but sigh as she knew what going on inside his head. 

There was someone more furious than Leonardo, it was Katherina. As the princess representing the Emperor in his absence, others must greet her first when they walk in, and yet Damien didn't do that. He acted as if she was not present, the other princes and princesses greeted Katherina before taking a seat. She had forgotten that Alex also didn't do it.

Katherina smiled gleefully when she heard Luna refusing Damien's offer. 

Even faced by Luna's instant rejection, Damien's smile did not falter, he curtsied one more while saying. 

''See you soon Saintess, I hope you will consider my offer.'' 

''No need to consider anything, my answer will not change.'' Luna firmly announced.

Damien only smiled, it was now that he was done with his prior business he turned to greet Maria and Sakuya. 

''Greetings Lady Maria, Lady Sakuya.'' 

''Respect her wish or else it will not matter even if you are the Holy God, I'll make you pay if you do something you shouldn't have done.''

Maria warned with a cold face, the temperature started decreasing.

''Noted,'' Damien responded not losing his smile, however inwardly he was sweating.

'Shit what a cold woman.'

''Fufufu, You're sure interesting but you'll cease to be the moment you make Luna cry, force her to do something she doesn't want to do.'' Sakuya also warned him. 

This time Damien couldn't maintain his smile anymore, his face stiffened, if not for the facade he was putting he would have started cursing already. 

Suddenly, he caught the figure of Alex that he had deliberately ignored, 

''And you are?" He asked with a humble smile on his face, however, Alex could detect a hidden animosity inside his eyes. 

Alex ignored him, looking at Gracier he said,

''Alexandra, let's go. See you soon Maria, Luna, and Sakuya.'' 

''Okay, Big brother,'' Gracier said, she exchanged one last glance with Maria and the other two before following Alex. 

The three girls nodded their heads with a smile watching Alex leave. 

''What just happened? Did the last otherworlder just ignored the Holy Son?" Some in the crowd asked. 

''Ah? Isn't it is a normal thing to do? Why will he answers him when he ignored him and when to seduce a girl first?" A green-haired girl asked this. 

Few people couldn't help but nod their heads thinking that they would have done the same thing if they were in Alex's shoes. 

Katherina was laughing hard, she was pleased to see Damien's current expression, it was priceless. Since the start of the banquet, it was the first time she had truly laugh, not the fake smile she was wearing earlier. 

Even if Leonardo was not fond of Alex, he was happy to see Alex ignore the white clown. 

Meanwhile, Damien's face kept twitching, it was his first time being ignored like that, he glared viciously at Alex's back. 

'So, he is Eighth? Doesn't matter I'll teach him a lesson he will never forget. I wonder why Luna sneak peek at him when she refused? Do they have a history together? Nah! It doesn't matter if they do because she will be mine. Nobody can't snatch away from me.'

Damien thought while clenching his fist. 

Alex was unaware of the fact that when Luna refused Damien's offer she sneaks peek at him just for a moment before looking elsewhere, however, Damien had seen it, which was why he became hostile to Alex. 

Just as he was leaving, Damien decided to look at Alex one more time, no, to look at the little beauty beside him, because he felt like the half-elf was beautiful enough to be his maid. However just as he looked at Alex, he felt a chill running down his spine when golden eyes met green eye. Alex smiled not saying anything before choosing a chair to sit on. 

'No way? What was that?' Damien wondered because for a moment he felt like he had been thrown into an ice pool, his back was drenched in sweat.

Just as he was about to sit, Damien heard a voice inside his head, this voice so cold that it made him shudder just by listening to it, and because of the sudden voice inside his head, Damien jumped in fright. 

''Little maggot, You better keep your bad thoughts at home or else even your Holy Father won't be able to save you.'' 

When Damien searched for the one responsible for his current state he saw a pair of beautiful silver eyes looking coldly at him, the owner of these eyes was beautiful beyond words. Damien felt like an ant in front of this silver-haired beauty. 

'A Master. Damn it. I was careless.' Damien wiped away his sweat before sitting, he would have left if not for the emperor coming.

On Alex's, Silveria sits across Alex and Gracier.

Others were observing them when they saw Silveria reappeared suddenly. 

Kuina Eriel Foxia was looking at Alex with interest, she was wondering why Alex seemed immune against her charm earlier but now she understood after seeing the silver-haired beauty. Her instinct was screaming at her not to do anything she may come to regret, it was because of this Kuina chose to not approach Alex for the moment, she was interested in the other world's culture because one of past otherworlders end up living in their kingdom, he created a lot of awesome things, wrote a lot of interesting stories, one of them which was pretty famous called: Romeo and Juliet.

Kuina was too fond of this story, she wondered if she approaches Alex, the latter may have some interesting stories to share with her. 

The reason Kuina did not approach Maria and the others two was that she sensed some hostility coming from the black-haired girl.

Truth be told personally, she also doesn't like Maria, it was a natural feeling. Sometimes it happens, without any reason or without even knowing a person, you just dislike that person. 

''Forget it, I will approach him in class later.''

Kuina decided while with her hair, she didn't even bother looking at Leonardo as she was disgusted by the way he looked at her.

Somehow, it could be said that it was because of fox women's innate charm but there was more than that in Leonard's case, he's just a horny dog not worth her time. He was only talented, strip him of that and he would be lower than an ant. The first thing he did when he came to the capital was to become Katherina's dog, what a foolish thing to do.

If only Leonardo knew that in Kuina's eyes he was just a horny dog, he would have spurted blood and die because he was planning to make her his wife. Fox Waifu is a must, after all, she must become part of Her harem, the future Emperor Harem. 

Suddenly, another commotion arose as Leon Lionheart was walking toward Alex's table.

Kuina was not surprised because she knew Leon pretty well, he likes strong individuals, simply because he wants to fight a strong opponent.

Alex may appear weak or simple in the other's eyes, however for beastmen it was different, they could feel the strong pressure coming from Alex's body, without a doubt he was pretty strong.

Kuina couldn't help but smile when she saw Ferris fidgeting like a maiden, unable to bring himself to go strike a conversation with Alex in front of so many eyes, something he desperately desired. Eris was helpless facing her brother's indecisiveness.

Unfortunately, Leon was the opposite, he had already arrived in front of Alex. 

''Evening Eighth, I'm Leon Lionheart, It's my pleasure to meet you can I sat at your table?" Leon asked. 

Alex who was chatting with his sister stopped and looked up to see a giant standing in front of him, he recognized this man, it's Leon Lionheart, Crown Prince of the Lionheart Empire. 

''What?" Alex said displeased to be called Eighth. 

Having noticed Alex's displeasure, Leon scratched his head not knowing what to say for a moment. He looks pretty awkward.

''Ah! Forgive me, I do not know your name it was why I called you Eighth as you're the eighth otherworlder.'' Leon bowed his head and explained himself. 

Alex was dumbfounded not expecting Leon to bow his head, he was not the only one, though, the others were also surprised wondering what going as they couldn't hear what the two were saying because they were not close to them. One should know that Leon was the Crown Prince of a powerful Empire, to think he would casually bow his head and ask to be excused, how unusual, he was not your typical Prince. Alex had the feeling that he will get along with this giant. 

''No need to bow. I'm Alexander Kael Touch, this is my sister Gracier Alexandra Touch and my master, Silveria. Come sit.'' Alex introduced himself and the two beside him before inviting Leon to sit with them. 

''Thank you, greetings miss Silveria, Little Gracier.''

Leon respectfully bowed to Silveria as he considered her to be a Master (Powerful Ranker), he then sat beside Alex. 

Gracier greeted Leon, she was not angry to be called little Gracier, in contrary she felt like Leon could become friend with her brother, her brother did not have any friends of his age, maybe Leon will be his first one.

 Silveria smiled in response to Leon greetings, she was inwardly thinking, 

'What an interesting lad. He's strong and talented. Maybe he will become master's rival.'
