Death Guns In Another World

Chapter 68 - 63: The Date

And finally, the sun rose, filling the sky with shades of orange and pink. Peach and magenta, amber and rose, radiating hope, a new beginning. Another chance to live. The start of a brand new day and for Alex, it was the day of his date with Leena, the elven receptionist, Gracierʼs Big sister.

Alex woke up with a yawn as he sat on his bed reminiscing about the previous night.

Gracier had suggested a lot of ideas to make todayʼs Date perfect. She said Alex must try to plant a seed for future prospects, meaning he must plant a seed that will bud into Love.

Alex chuckled feeling amused, ʼʼThis is not a Date, it is more like discussion to probe each on what we want each. Iʼm sure she wants something from me, as for me it will depend on what she has to propose.ʼʼ

〖Well, you can also win her heart and all will be yours.〗Silveria chime in.

ʼFor the moment it is impossible.ʼ Alex answered.

〖I know, I was just messing with you, she too high for you anyway. You are like an ant in front of her.〗Silveria said with a chuckle.

ʼWell, Ant can kill an elephant. Let leave that aside for now. Youʼre talking like you know how powerful she is. Can you tell me her Rank?ʼ Alex asked.

〖Letʼs see, she is really powerful, the most powerful in this town. As for her exact Rank, sorry I canʼt tell you because Iʼm weakened, I canʼt appraise her, you need to be more powerful for me to be able to appraise her, at least Level 50. I will suggest you do everything to get her or at least make her become your ally because believe me she is really powerful, at least Rank 10 or even above.

As for why she is here it is probably because of you or something related to you, call it womanʼs intuition if you will but you must win her as an ally, it wonʼt be hard because you already have an advantage which is-〗

ʼGracier.ʼ Alex cut Silveria and said.

〖Exactly, Iʼm not sure why she became her sworn sister but it will not change, she felt grateful because you saved Gracier. You must have noticed that the way she handled you changed after has seen Gracier who is attached to you.〗Silveria said.

ʼI do.ʼ Alex answered, it was indeed true.

〖You are lucky to have someone like Gracier who takes you as her Big brother. Her potential is limitless. Iʼm sure Ignia has chosen her because of you, more accurately because of us, and as Igniaʼs host, there is no way she will be a weakling. As proof, you have noticed how fast she is leveling up. Her potential is not less than your friends, only the Hero and the one who has Ice Magic.

For the former, itʼs because his Gift is really powerful and for the latter, her Gift is also powerful but itʼs more like she is Gracier natural nemesis. Fire vs Ice.〗Silveria explained.

ʼI see. Does Leonardoʼs Gift is more powerful than mine?ʼ Alex couldnʼt help but ask.

However, the only answer he got was a laugh, Silveria laughed hard before continuing.

〖A little advice from me, better make Gracier your sister for good before anyone snatches her from you because if it were to happen youʼll regret it. You may say youʼve started changing the way you see her but that not enough. She may take you as her Big brother but if it is only one side she may leave later.〗

Having seen that Silveria was not planning to answer his question, a question he feels like a fool for asking. He can know the answer in the future after fighting Leonardo, something he was sure it will happen because there was no way Leonardo wouldnʼt want to trample him, same goes for him, Alex shook his head before asking.

ʼI know. What do you suggest then.ʼ

Silveria laughed before answering,

〖There is way, it is like a contract between you two. No need to worry itʼs not a slave contract, she will not die if you die. The contract will turn you into kin, you will feel each other location. Let say after the contract youʼll feel like you have the same bloodline. Well, itʼs just feeling, in reality, your race wonʼt change.〗

ʼI see. We will talk about it later. For now, I should prepare for the date.ʼ Alex said and stood up. He cleaned himself and changed into new clothes. A simple black pant, on top of the pants, was a white long-sleeved shirt.

ʼʼSimple and beautiful.ʼʼ Gracier who should be sleeping praised. It seems she had woken up when Alex was in the bathroom.

ʼʼThank you. If I come back there is something we need to talk about.ʼʼ Alex announced.

ʼʼAlright.ʼʼ

Gracier answered because Alex seemed serious when he said that. The two left for the first floor and Alex left after exchanging few jokes with the girls.

...

Located in the center of the city was a fountain, a beautiful fountain with lots of bench surrounding it.

Sitting on one of these benches was a woman, a beautiful woman dressed in a long green robe. Her green hair was tied in a ponytail showing her white neckline, there were no accessories on her, just a simple green robe, simple yet elegant. Like some like to say simplicity is the best.

Naturally, the green-haired beauty was Leena who was going on date with Alex.

ʼSighʼ

Leena heaved a sigh while waiting for Alex. She sighed because everyone was pointing their fingers in her direction and murmuring unaware she heard all of them.

ʼIsnʼt Leena, the most sought receptionist?ʼ asked a random old man.

ʼItʼs her. I heard she is going on date with the Rookie, the green-haired boy who started soaring recently.ʼ another person answered.

ʼOh! Lucky him. I would like to switch places with him. She never accepted a date from anyone I heard. She must have seen something in the boy for her to accept going on date with him or she wants to play with him. Women are cruel creatures after all.ʼ the old man mumbled.

Leenaʼs lips twitched at that mention. The man must have experienced a setback with a woman to talk like that, not that it matters to her. Shaking her head she sent a deathly stare into a certain direction.

Nyora and another receptionist who was hiding there shivered before hastily retreating to the Guild before suffering Leenaʼs ire now she discovered them.

Two minutes later Alex showed up.

ʼʼSorry, I was lost. Itʼs my first time setting foot here.ʼʼ

ʼʼDonʼt worry. I didnʼt wait too long.ʼʼ Leena replied with a smile.

ʼʼThat good then. You are beautiful, green suit you well.ʼʼ Alex praised her.

Still smiling Leena reply ʼʼI know. Letʼs go.ʼʼ

Alex and Leena left. The two visited many places, starting with a small restaurant to eat breakfast and then going to a clothing store and finally the market where Alex bought Leena a necklace while the latter bought him a scarf. The two continued touring the city.

Finally, after three hours, the two entered a Restaurant to have their lunch.

ʼʼLet talk after eating.ʼʼ

Leena announced as the two entered the restaurant.
