Death Guns In Another World

Chapter 170 - 168: The Third Princess 1

Blue Haven Villa, Alex's chamber.

Laying on his bed Alex was lost in thoughts. 

Suddenly, Silveria appeared, 

''You appeared troubled master." She said.

''Indeed I am.'' 

''Fufufu! I was quite surprised when I heard Maria's. The three must-have talked about it beforehand, this is not her decision alone. Somehow, I can understand her, with her two friends she will have more power confronting the others rivals. Become how outstanding you are, you'll become, you're bound to attract lots of women around you, it will be foolish for only one woman to think about monopolizing you. She understood this fact, reason why she is building her faction, sisters she can count on later. This is my hypothesis, though.'' Silveria explained.

''I see. It doesn't matter, as I agreed upon I'll start with Luna, I have the feeling that we knew each other, however, no matter how hard I've tried it seems I can't remember where and when. Let's find while we will be on a date.'' Alex decided. 

''Eager aren't we? Already planning your date. It's almost like you've been waiting for this. Well, who can blame you if you consider how beautiful Luna is. Ah! That fellow is sure interesting, he had foreseen that you two would end up together, you didn't accept yet now.'' Silveria said while looking at Alex with a smile. 

''Ugh! It's his wins.'' Alex said dejected, he wasn't expecting Maria's Condition, even so, he couldn't decline it just for the sake of gaining an SS grade armor. 

Silveria only smiled not saying anything. 

''I will go visit the Golden Nuggets later, I'll change the name.'' Alex decided before closing his eyes, he decided to take an afternoon nap. 

Silveria left the room to let her master sleep.

••••

Evening came.

Just as Alex woke up, someone came to the villa, it was a messenger. 

''Evening Mr. Alexander. I came to invite you, my mistress wishes to see you.'' the messenger said after bowing his head. 

''May I know who's your mistress?" Alex asked, Gracier and Silveria were also interested. 

''The third princess. Her Highness wishes to see you. It's for an escort mission, as for the details you will ask her Highness.'' the messenger responded. 

Alex exchanged glances with Gracier and Silveria, the three were surprised. It was said that the princess rarely goes out, she doesn't like to interact with others, even when all her other siblings were competing for the throne, she did not make any move, she didn't appear at the banquet, meaning she hadn't seen Alex fight and yet she was inviting him. Alex could not help but wonder why. 

Sighing he decided to go, Gracier wanted to accompany him, however, Alex refused. 

''Lead the way,'' Alex ordered. 

The messenger bowed before with Alex they left. Instead of using a carriage, they used a teleportation circle to appear inside what seemed to be a mansion.

''This way.'' the messenger said before starting to walk forward. Alex followed after him, jars and paintings were displayed in the passage they were taking. He was curiously looking at the items that decorated the passageway.

After 10 minutes, a door with exquisite carvings came into view. 

And when the two people arrived at the door, the messenger knocked on the wall beside the door with a door knocker.

''Come in.'' a woman's voice could be heard.

''Please excuse me.''

Hearing those words, the messenger reached out for the door. He grabbed the handle but touched as little of the carvings as possible as he opened the door. 

''Your Highness, I've brought Mr. Alexander, the D Rank Adventurer for the matter about the nominated request.''

'So it's because of a nominated request?' Alex thought. D Rank Adventurer can start receiving a nominated request from clients who wish to employ them.

''Mm, it's been hard work for you. I've been waiting. Well, come in.'' it was the same voice who spoke earlier. 

Hearing this from inside, Alex entered the room as prompted by the messenger.

''!?''

And the moment he stepped foot into the room. He heard a sharp sound and felt blood lust to his side. He immediately kicked against the ground, jumped forward, and rolled. After rolling once on the floor, he reflexively took out Reaper from the item box and readied it.

In front of Alex was a person wearing silver armor, this person's head was also covered in a metal helmet. Alex's eyes were attracted to the sword in that person's hand. It was giving the same vibe as Golfak's sword, it was to say this sword was like Golfak's sword, a magic sword, however, the grade of this magic sword was higher than Golfak's magic sword.

Alex disappeared to reappears in front of the person in the silver armor, he slashed toward the person in the silver armor neck, however, the blow was intercepted by the Magic sword. 

Kin! 

Expecting this outcome, Alex used his leg like a whip and struck the person in the silver armor. This move was unexpected so, the person in the silver armor couldn't avoid it, hence got blasted away. This person grunted in pain.

''Gah?!" 

''A woman?" Alex exclaimed because it was a woman's voice coming from the other side of the helmet. 

Even after knowing that the other party was a woman Alex did not stop, he kicked the ground and appeared in front of the woman in silver armor. 

Seeing the silver blade coming towards her face at fast speed, even though she knew she was wearing a helmet, the woman in silver armor shivered, she quickly jumped back to evade it. 

Shing! 

The silver knife passed in front of her by a few cm away. It made a sharp sound as if tearing space apart as it cut through the air. The assailant broke out in cold sweat inside her helmet.

(Impossible, I'm being easily handled like this? I bet it's because I'm not using my full power. I refuse to believe I can't beat him.) 

When meeting with a person that exceeded one's imagination, most people would either choose to fight them or receive them nicely. In other words, their mind would either move to eliminate the existence or build an amicable relationship to obtain protection. And this woman immediately selected the former. No, she had even forgotten the reason why she had attacked Alex because her pride was hurt, Alex did not give her the time to attack, so she was frustrated. 

(I'll use my Gift and show him.) 

While the woman in the silver armor was decided what to do, Alex was finally able to understand why he was attacked. It was some kind of test because he was going to escort the third princess, as to where he had no idea.

The other party must have decided to test him to see what he was capable of, nobody was going to assign you an escort mission if you don't have the power to protect your escort. 

(Testing my skill as an escort..is it. Then maybe this woman is an attendant of the Third Princess or something.)

Even after knowing the reason why he was attacked, Alex was a little bit pissed off. He decided to teach the other party a lesson, at the same time showing some of his skills.

''Here I come,'' Alex mumbled.

Shortly after saying that, Alex kicked against the ground and closed the distance to the woman.

As for the woman in the silver armor, she smiled before shouting. 

''Take this.'' 

With a sharp cry, the woman in the silver armor thrust forward with the sword in her hand. As she usually used a spear (her Gift is a spear), the speed and power were different. However, the sword thrust still carried a decent amount of power.

Alex avoided the thrust at his face by moving his neck slightly.

''Not yet!'' she shouted.

The blade that had shot forth returned to the woman in the silver armor in an instant.

And In a flash, one, two, and three stabs were sent out. Alex narrowed the distance while avoiding the attacks with the minimum amount of movement. He was smiling, he was excited. 

?Again, he started with this smile again.?

Silveria mumbled exasperated when she saw Alex's smile, he was enjoying the fight.

(This man must be at least Rank 7. Impressive, however, you're bound to lose.)

The woman wearing the silver armor commented. 

Suddenly, she threw her sword at Alex, Alex who was planning to attack her stopped and shifted his position a little bit on the opposite side to avoid the sword. 

Just as he was about to counter-attack, he was surprised because he felt a sudden gravity, shocked he looked in front of him to see the woman in the silver armor holding a two meters long earthen spear, he knew that it was her Gift and from the gravity, he was feeling, she must possess the Earth element. 

The woman in the silver armor was pleased seeing Alex's reaction. 

''Hah!" 

With a sharp cry, she sent five consecutive thrusts at Alex, her attacks were fast, coupled with the use of gravity magic she was sure of Alex's defeat, how wrong she was. 

Silveria in her world could not help but chuckle when she saw that the woman in the silver armor seemed sure of her victory.

Next, something incomprehensible happened. Alex who should be frozen under her gravity (200 kg) moved, he dodged the five consecutive thrusts as if there were nothing. 

''What?" Facing such an incomprehensible feat, the woman in the silver armor exclaimed. 

Alex vanished from her sight when he reappeared in front of her, he punched her in the stomach. 

''Gah?!" 

She was blown away crashing against the sofa, destroying it. Alex appeared in front of her his right leg raised high, he was planning to finish her by bringing down his leg, however, he was stopped by a sudden voice. 

''That's enough. It's Alexander's victory.''
