Death Guns In Another World

Chapter 166 - 164: Girl's Talk 3

Somewhere in Avalon, a man could be seen breaking everything inside a room, this man seemed upset, a woman was standing not too far from the man.

''Damn it. Why? Why? why? How can't he become so strong? Tonight was my night to shine and yet, damn it.'' Leonardo said before breaking another painting yet again. 

Suddenly, Camilla who was standing behind appeared before Leonardo and slapped him hard.

Slap!

The room turned silent, Leonardo's mind turned blank, he couldn't believe what just happened, he has been slapped, he touched his right cheek before looking at Camilla wanting to say something, however, he couldn't bring himself to talk when he saw how furious Camilla was, he unconsciously flinched, he had never seen Camilla so angry.

''Shut up will you? Are you a child? Throwing tantrum since two hours ago. It's enough already. What good it will bring if you keep up? Will Alex disappear? I don't think so. Your problems won't disappear either. You need to calm down and think.'' 

Leonardo nodded his head before sitting on the bed. Having finally calmed down he saw how much destruction he had caused, he couldn't help but lower his head feeling ashamed. 

Camilla heaved a sigh before sitting next to him. She cupped his face in her hands and brushed his lips lightly with her own. Feeling each other breath, she said. 

''Alexender is not simple. We may have mocked him but it was simply because we were scared, scared because he was the only one with a different Gift than the rest of us, his Gift was only one sealed. The Goddess had said if one's Gift does not emit any pressure it was either because it's low ranked Gift or simply because it's sealed. We have all seen Alex's status, his Gift was sealed. It doesn't take a genius to understand that his Gift was not simple.'' 

Leonardo did not say anything because he was fully aware that everything Camilla was saying was true. He was scared of Alex's unknown Gift, his Gift must be so dangerous that it was sealed, which meant his Gift's rank was not different from his, maybe above. This thought scared him, it was why he mocked him to hide his insecurities, he did everything he could to drive him away, he felt like he would not shine with Alex being near, the spotlight would be stolen by him.

It was always like that, even back when they were still on Earth, all eyes were on Alex whenever he comes to school, it doesn't matter if he was absent most of the time when he appears everybody would start talking of him as if he was the center of the universe. Leonardo would become a background character, it was because of that he comes to hate Alexander even though the latter did nothing, no, it was his lack of response when he tried to show off that made Leonardo more furious, Alex looked at him as though he was nothing, as if he was not worth his time, in truth Alex was too tired to say anything it was why he didn't bother entertaining Leonardo.

Fearing the same thing happening here he did what he must and pushed Alex out, he had hoped he may die or choose to live a simple life, unfortunately, Alex did none of that, instead, he reappeared, not only he changed physically, he became stronger, strong peoples are now backing him. Once more he became a background character, Leonardo couldn't help but explode. 

Camilla quietly listened to her man spilled all his frustrations before saying. 

''I understand how you feel but you must calmly think before acting. As I said Alex is not simple, from his actions tonight I can say he deliberately ignored you, he knew you'd send something to probe him and he had already prepared a trap for that person. He's too scary, an enemy like him must never be underestimated or else you'll suffer before knowing it. I suggest that you quickly make Katherina yours or else you'll regret it.'' 

Leonardo's eyes widened, he was looking at his woman with incredible eyes not believing that she would push him to get another woman, he wouldn't deny that it was what he wanted but -

''It's not that I'm happy with it but it is because it's necessary for our plan, for your dream to be above Alex, to not be a background character anymore. Making Katherina yours is the first step. We will talk about the second step later. Let's sleep, for now, we will talk tomorrow.'' Camilla announced before leaving the room, Leonardo stood up and follow after her. 

He did not know that Camilla was pushing him to make Katherina his because she was fearing that the latter may bring Alex into her faction, if this happened it wouldn't do them any good, they may be discarded because of Alex. For this to not happen Leonardo must make Katherina his, and force her to drop the idea of getting Alex as she had the feeling that Katherina would try anything to get Alex on her side even if the latter disagree.

At the same time in another location, Katherina's mansion. 

In her bedroom, laying on bed Katherina couldn't fall asleep. She was dressed in a lascivious negligee. A see-through cloth that made heavy use of lace! The white skin was slightly seen underneath it! And the black underwear could be seen. 

Katherina lifted her upper body before sitting on the bed, she was thinking about how she will approach Alex. 

''I want him. With him, under me, I will be able to have that person's help. I mustn't let my sister take him away. I don't know why but I have the feeling that she will appear now that Alexander shows up. I never thought that he would become so strong. If only-" 

Katherina said eyes filled with regret before suddenly her eyes turned cold for a moment before she heaved a sigh.

''It's because of Leonardo, it was because of what he said. Ah! How naïve of me. He must've done that because of jealousy. Forget it, he is now working for me. I will let him off this time, however, if he tries to make things difficult for me, I won't forgive him. Alex will be mine.'' 

She then let herself fall back on the bed, she started kicking her legs in the air while thinking about how to approach Alex before her sister does as she was sure that she will approach Alex, not only her, a lot of people will try to approach him.

•••••

In another mansion located not too far from the Imperial Magic Academy.

Four beautiful girls could be seen chatting happily inside a big room, in front of those four girls was snack and midnight tea.

''Gracier how did you know Alex?" 

Sakuya wearing a black see-through negligee asked. 

Maria dressed in a light blue negligee and Luna in a white negligee stopped eating and decided to listen to Gracier's history. 

Gracier told them what happened, how she had been rescued by Alex, how they became siblings, how she went back to get her revenge on the monsters. Naturally, she did not tell them everything, she kept a lot of things for herself. 

''Don't worry anymore we are here now. We will protect you from now on.'' Sakuya said while stroking Gracier's hair. 

Gracier smiled feeling warm inside. 

''Big sister Maria you are an Ice user aren't you?" Gracier suddenly raised this question. 

Maria was caught off because she was not expecting this question, still, she nodded her head. 

''Indeed, how do you know?" She asked.

''Hehehe, it's because I can sense it. I'm a Fire user, when I saw you it's like I'm seeing an enemy. I feel uncomfortable, however, it's now fine.'' Gracier explained. 

''Ah! That's why. I also feel uncomfortable, however, I thought that it was because I'm feeling unwell.'' Maria said recalling how she felt when Alex and Gracier approached them.

''Did Alex date, someone, when you were in Eria's city?" Someone suddenly asked.

Gracier turned her head in Luna's direction as it was her who raised this question. 

''Not really.'' 

Gracier didn't know who it was but she could have sworn that someone sighed.

''However, there was a beautiful girl named Sera, she gets along pretty well with Big brother. She often visits us, they almost went on date. Big brother is interested in her however because of how busy he was he hasn't made a move until the girl left.'' 

Another sigh.

''It seems that she is also here. Maybe the two may accidentally encounter each other who knows.'' Gracier smiled before looking at the three girls, she couldn't read Maria and Sakuya, however she was able to sense something from Luna's eyes, she seemed somehow relieved. Gracier decided to probe her.

''Big sister Luna, how do you know Big brother? Can you tell me about it?" 

Gracier had expected that Luna would start talking about Alex, however, when the latter heard Gracier's question she turned gloomy all of sudden startling Gracier.

''Fufufu, you see Luna know Alex since-"

Sakuya started talking to be stopped by Maria.

''Stop it Sakuya. She's uncomfortable don't you see it?" 

Sakuya was forced to shut up as she could feel Luna's mood plummeting, 'Ah! Lû is too stubborn. Why not tell him everything?' she wondered before shaking her head.

Gracier did not say anything. Maria chuckled before saying,

''You know, your Big brother was really impressive. He was one of the richest people in our world.'' 

''Really?" Gracier asked eyes filled with stars.

Maria nodded her head, Sakuya also joined in, they started talking about Alex, how much money he had, about his cars, about his grandmother, it was Luna who talked about more about her, it was if she knew her. 

When Gracier learned that Alex had lost his parents at 10, she couldn't help but shed tears. 

The four girls continued talking until late in the night before deciding to sleep and continue another day.
