Death Guns In Another World

Chapter 50 - 45: A Way to increase oneʼs MP

While the girls were chatting inside Leaʼs room, Alex sat on his bed, legs crossed. He decided to check the skill that Silveria had given him.

Thinking about the new skill in question, a blue panel window containing the skillʼs description appeared before his eyes.

『Blink: Skill that grants the user the ability to disappear and reappears at will within a certain range.

Skill Level: 1

Blinkʼs Range: 100 Meters (328 ft)

The higher the skill level, the more distance your Blink will cover, while the amount of MP needed will reduce.

MP needed: 350』

Alex sucked a mouthful of air; it was indeed an excellent skill; used wisely, you can catch your opponent off guard by appearing behind him and firing a bullet at point-blank range.

The problem was the amount of MP needed to use the skill; with his current MP, Alex could only Blink three times before running out of MP; he needs MP to fire bullets; at best, he could use this skill one time with his current MP.

Shaking his head at how unfortunate it was not to have a lot of MP, Alex decided to ask Silveriaʼs help; maybe the latter could have a way that could help him increase his MP permanently besides leveling up.

”Silveria, is there any way to increase my MP besides leveling up?”

〖There is〗Silveria answered.

”Good, care to share?” Alex asked Silveria to explain.

〖The only way possible for you to increase your MP is to eat a dragonʼs heart.〗

”You must be joking, right?” Alex asked, not believing Silveria, thinking she was joking with him.

Unfortunately, Silveria wasnʼt joking; her following words confirmed it.

〖And why would I joke about something so serious? Iʼm dead serious; you need a dragonʼs heart. Youʼll eat raw while eating it I will help you convert it into MP.〗

”Bleurgh! Donʼt joke about something like that. Why would I eat raw? Iʼm not some fuckin cannibal. Iʼve never eaten raw meat; it must stink like hell.” Alex responded, doing his best not to vomit. Just the idea of eating a raw heart makes his stomach churns.

〖Itʼs either that or nothing.〗Silveria announced.

Seeing that there was no way out, sighing, Alex asked fearfully, ”I understand, but where would I search a dragon heart? You donʼt intend to make me fight a dragon, do you?”

〖Not necessary, and I doubt there is a true dragon in this world. Well, for now, a wyvernʼs heart will do. You can only use wyvernʼs heart twice before it becomes ineffective. The next time you want to increase your MP, youʼll need a higher dragon heart.〗Silveria explained.

Hearing Silveriaʼs explanation, Alex thought that it made sense. For now, he will search for a wyvernʼs heart; maybe he can purchase it because, with his current Rank, it was night impossible to face a wyvern. If he were to do all, he would earn a ticket straight to hell.

”I will ask Leena later if it is possible to buy a wyvernʼs heart. Hell, I bet it will be costly. Well, let sleep; good night Sil.” Alex said before switching off the luminaes illuminating his room.

〖Goodnight Master〗Silveria replied as darkness enveloped the room.

....

The next day, the bright radiance of the sun had infiltrated the night sky thoroughly.

The night was over, and it was the start of a new day.

Alex woke up to find Gracier sleeping in the bed using his arm as a pillow, smiling because he was sure that Gracier had sneaked out of Leaʼs room to appear here.

Alex left the bed gently, trying not to wake her up. After doing his usual morning exercise, he went to the bathroom to shower and brush his teeth. After finishing, he returned to the room and got dressed in his Adventurerʼs gear.

By then, Gracier had woken up; upon seeing the dressed Alex, she stood up and greeted Alex before proceeding to the bathroom.

Half of an hour later, the two were eating their breakfast on the first floor. Lea was glaring at Alex. The latter had an idea why she was doing this.

”We will be going. See you tonight.” Alex said after finishing; Gracier followed after whispering something into Leaʼs ear; the latter seemed to have calmed down after hearing Gracier.

Alex passed by Smithʼs store. Today there was a customer already inside the store browsing through armors and weapons. Sera was busy, seeing Alex enter with someone she had never seen; Sera stopped and glanced at Alex.

”Morning, Alex. Who is the beautiful young lady beside you?” Sera asked with curiosity.

At that moment, the other customer turned his attention to the new entrants. He was surprised by Gracier beauty. From his outfit, Alex judged that he should be a Mercenary.

”Morning, Sera. This beautiful girl is my little sister Gracier. Sera, this is Gracier, Gracier, this is Sera.” Alex introduced the two.

”Nice to meet you, Big sister Sera,” Gracier said politely.

Smiling because she started to like the red-haired girl who wore an eye patch, Sera replies

”Likewise.”

”How is your Old man? Did he finishes my orders?” Alex asked.

Tearing her gaze from Gracier, Sera replies while giving a change to the customer Alex considered to be a Mercenary. The latter had brought a bastardʼs Sword. He left after glancing at Alex.

”Heʼs fine. Heʼs not done yet. He was trying to find the best material possible to make the black jacket and the black pants; as for the shirt.”

”Thatʼs good, but tell him to make it quick. I will take an exam to become a D Rank Adventurer soon. Iʼll need them to complete the exam. Also, I would like to order another set of four throwing knives; they must look exactly like the previous one. If possible, I want an enchanted robe for my little si-”

Sera cut Alex off and said, ”Oh, so soon. Congratulations then. As for the enchanted robe, could you leave it to me? What color would you like, little sister?”

”Red will do,” Gracier responded. She seems to like red because two robes among the three robes she had brought yesterday were red.

”Nice choice. It will be Two gold coins. As for the four throwing knives, it will be Two gold coins and-”

”Hold on.” It was now Alexʼs turn to cut her off.

”Can you reduce the total amount of money a little? Iʼm practically from the house, you know.” Alex pleaded.

She was rolling her eyes at Alex because the words he said could be misinterpreted as him being her man. Sera sighed before deciding to reduce the total amount of money a little.

”It will be Four Gold coins then. All your orders will be ready in three days.” Sera said.

”Thank you. Oh! I forgot to tell your Old man that I want to change how the belt Iʼll be wearing on top of the jacket will be.”

Taking out an already drawn sketch, Alex gave it to Sera, the latter observed it before nodding her head.

”So, you want this belt to be altered so that it could hold your throwing knives?” Sera asked.

”Exactly.”

Hearing Alexʼs confirmation, Sera smiled before receiving the four gold coins. ”Good, Iʼll tell him.”

”We will be leaving then. Today will be Gracierʼs first day as Adventurer, meaning her first quest.” Alex declared.

”Oh? Good chance then, little sister, be sure to listen to your Big brother. Alex, please donʼt go too hard on her.” Sera advised.

”Donʼt worry, Big sister Sera; Iʼll listen to Big brother Alex,” Gracier answered with a smile.

”Good. See you in three days.”

”I understand. Bye Sera, Greet the old man for me.” Alex said.

”Bye, Big sister.”

Alex and Gracier left, leaving Sera behind; the latter mumbled, ”Alex is sure interesting. To think he will have a Half-elf as a little sister. youʼre a fascinating person.”

She went behind her counter afterward, praying that today they would have a lot of customers as they used to every time Alex visited the; hee was like their lucky star after all.
