Death Guns In Another World

Chapter 657 - 633: Bullet Time

'I know it's a trap, but I will still use this stone. Say no more.' Alex's words were final, and Silveria could only obey. It was not like she didn't understand why Alex was firm on his decision. He didn't want to waste too much time as nobody knew what the girls were going through while he was taking things slowly. Therefore he must take some risk, and it was not like Alex had not expected this move from the supreme priest, but only the timing was faster than he had anticipated.

Since the moment Alex heard from Paxton that the supreme priest changed the rules demoting Clayton that he knew that the enemy was aware that he was an imposter. Although Alex was sure that Clayton was still alive as he made sure he could still live for another day, then it meant that the supreme priest outside the seal she put on Clayton's memories still possessed a method to know that the current Clayton was not real, it was an imposter, it was which why she purposely demoted Clayton and send him to the basement, to let the imposter learn of the secret of the Moon powder, she was sure whoever it was this person would blow his cover because of what was inside the basement, unexpectedly, it didn't happen as she planned this made the supreme priest use another card, a direct invitation. It was as if she was saying, 'I know you are an imposter, would you dare to take on my challenge and come? Or will you run like a rat?' 

Alex chooses the first option. His final objective was to see this so-called supreme priest anyway, so he had no reason to refuse this poisoned wine. Once you know your wine was poisoned but still accepted it, it means that you had a method to counter this poison. 

After he made up his mind Alex immediately crushed the yellow stone inside his hand, the mana stored inside the stone burst out in the form of golden light that enveloped Alex's body, and he disappeared. 

''Lucky bastard.'' Paxton and those that knew nothing cursed Clayton (Alex).

Alex, on the other side, appeared in front of a black door; this door was so gigantic that Alex standing before it looked small. Alex didn't waste his time. He immediately pushed the door open; unexpectedly it was easily opened. 

The room was large as one should expect it; there was a single throne at the other end of the room, and sitting on this throne was a woman. She had silver hair and beautiful red eyes; the dress she wore could only be called provocative. 

Immediately after Alex walked in, the woman observed him as though she was appraising him, and when she was done, she opened her mouth.

''So you came even knowing that it was a trap?" She asked; the woman is known as the supreme priest, the one with the highest authority in this city.

Alex shrugged his shoulders and immediately canceled the God mask; his real face was shown, making the woman raise an eyebrow. 

''I didn't have the choice. You have something I want, so we are bound to face each other eventually.'' Alex declared while secretly on full alert, he could feel two other strong presences beside the woman before him even without using his Divine Sense. 

''Oh hohohoho! You are quite an interesting one. A foolish human.'' the supreme priest said before standing from her throne and began walking forward; every time she took a step forward, the room would darken as if afraid of her. 

Facing such a scene, Alex remained utterly unfazed; his eyes never left the woman who decided to stop as her intimidation was not working on Alex. 

''Where are they?" Alex asked with a calm voice, but the supreme priest knew that his voice was nothing but calm as he was like a volcano ready to erupt.

''They are here. But I have a proposition for you.'' the supreme priest declared while directly looking into Alex's eyes. 

''I'm listening.''

''Join me; I will make you stronger than anything you ever imagined. Together we will climb up to the highest level and usurp God's authority, making this world ours before we will begin worlds conquest using the resources and people of this world. How is it? Are you ready to take my hand?" The supreme priest said as she extended her hand toward Alex. 

It didn't take a genius to know that the thing before him was not human; it must be some kind of spirit like on the previous floor, which dreamed of freedom so much that it became twisted. Naturally, Alex had no play following this twisted spirit delusion, nor he would let the girls get possessed, so Alex's answer was decided from the start.

''I refuse.'' 

The supreme priest stayed silent before saying. 

''I see it a shame then. I will forcibly take your body.'' She immediately flicked her fingers, and two guards in black armor appeared; at the same time, Eri and Maria dressed in plain white short robe appeared, crucified on two-pole standing opposite to each other, these poles were behind the supreme priest. She had a smug expression on her face as she looked at the enraged. 

Alex's right eye throbbed but ignored and tried to attack the supreme priest; it was when a bell rang out, making Alex dizzy. 

''Fufufufu! You can use any magic.'' the supreme priest declared proudly, but to her surprise, Alex was smiling. 

Alex void stepped to reappear in the middle of them. 

''You know I'm getting sick of your rambling. Because you are strong, you think I will let you have your way? I'm done being the sandbag. From now on, I'm the one beating others.''

Upon hearing those words, the supreme priest felt a chill down her spine; everything she had thought was well planned crumbled; an unknown fear assaulted her; she was not seeing a young man standing before her but a thousand years old monsters. 

''Stop him.'' 

''Oops! Too late.'' Alex declared before unleashing his power, trying to stop magic before him; what a joke. 

''Golden Hour Bullet Time!" 

Click! 

Time was frozen around Alex, faster than his shadow he fired. 

''Time Annihilation Bullet!" 

BANG! 

Normal bullets killed the two guards in black armor while a special bullet only usable in Bullet Time mode was fired, which pierced the supreme priest's head. This bullet was usable once a week, so Alex kept it for occasions like these.

''Wha-" 

When time resumed, the supreme priest was shocked to see her strongest guards dead while she aged faster and was soon turned into a mummy. However, at the last moment, the thing controlling the supreme priest body escaped in the form of a black mass that tried to penetrate Maria's body but,

''Erase.'' Bang! 

The silver bullet pierced through this black mass and instantly erased it. 

''Noooooooo!" 

''Fuh! My plan worked..'' Alex said before walking toward the girl; Silveria was shocked by the unexpected development, only Nyx was smiling in satisfaction; those thousand years were not for nothing; Alex had matured.
