Death Guns In Another World

Chapter 155 - 148: A Little Lesson

With the help of Alex and Gracier, Conrad buried the dead bodies.

Alex spat out a sigh as they finished. Conrad summoned another magic carriage, this one was more beautiful, it was a white carriage beautifully decorated.

ʼʼSo, you have a spare one?” Alex asked while admiring the beauty of this carriage.

ʼʼI do. Well, it seems that G- Miss Leena had predicted something like this would happen, hence she left another carriage just in case.ʼʼ Conrad explained.

ʼʼI see,ʼʼ Alex mumbled, lost in thought, he was more interested in what Conrad wanted to say but changed to Miss Leena. What that G meant?

ʼʼI say, Alex. Do you offend someone you shouldnʼt, reason why thereʼs always people after your life?” Conrad asked. His voice jerked Alex back to awareness.

Alexʼs lips twitched when he finally understood Conradʼs question.

ʼʼHow rude. I didnʼt offend anyone. Well, I once insulted the second princess by calling her bitch, the more correct word was ʼBitch go fuck yourself.ʼʼ

Conrad looked at Alex with a look of admiration. Same with Gracier whose eyes were shining.

ʼʼIʼm surprised that you still have your head after having said something like that. That princess was known for her ruthlessness. Did you think itʼs her doing, these eight men?”

Gracierʼs eyes narrowed dangerously when she heard this, she mistakenly thought that it was also the second princess who sent that monster after them. Her eyes turned murderous.

Having noticed his sisterʼs unusual state, Alex stroked her hair to calm her down.

ʼʼDo not think too much about it.ʼʼ

Gracier nodded her head, Conrad smiled seeing the interaction between the two.

ʼʼWell, itʼs possible that is her men. As for how they knew we will be passing here, it was not hard to guess that, someone sold us.ʼʼ Alex said and kept stroking Gracierʼs hair.

ʼʼLikely. Letʼs get moving.ʼʼ Conrad said, Alex and Gracier boarded the carriage and left.

Meanwhile, in a mansion in the capital.

The figure of Katherina, the second princess could be seen. She sat on a comfy chair reading a book when suddenly a maid brought a tea, she placed the tea in front of Katherina, she bowed before leaving quietly as not to disturb her mistress.

Katherina continued to slowly flip through the pages of the book in her hand as the steam from the cup wafted a pleasant scent past her. She paused for a moment, then she gently lifted the cup and drank. It was a pleasant temperature, neither too hot nor too lukewarm, she felt refreshed like her mind was clearing immediately, as she sipped at it.

Her mood was great, as she was about to continue reading when suddenly she frowned as she sensed an incoming presence.

Soon, a shadow materialized near her.

ʼʼGreetings your Highness. I have something to report.ʼʼ the man dressed in black said while kneeling.

Katherina was truly displeased, everybody knew she dislikes being bothered when she was reading. It was one of her few joys, her little heaven amidst the hell known as the royal family where you and your siblings will constantly at each other throats vying for the throne. However now, this Heaven was shattered, shaking her head she said in a voice that doesnʼt hide her displeasure.

ʼʼGo on.ʼʼ

The black-clothed felt shudder running down his spine hearing such a chilling voice, even if he knew the princess was in a bad mood, he braced himself and spoke.

ʼʼGregor took the initiative to send some men to take care of that otherworlder as he learned he was coming towards the capital, the men died it-”

He didnʼt even manage to finish his words when a powerful pressure coming from Katherina pressed his head against the floor as if to grind it.

ʼʼWhat did you say?”

Katherinaʼs blue eyes were narrowed dangerously, she was furious beyond words, she had said to not make another move against Alexander and yet a retard among her subordinates went against her order. She could understand why this person did something like that, it was to curry the favor of the soon-to-be Empress, well from their standpoint.

Nevertheless, an arbitrary decision is something she disliked more than anything, especially when sheʼd already stated not to do anything. As for the menʼs death, she was unbothered because this would mean that Alex survived, as for how she was not interested at the moment.

The poor man was on the brink of death as so much pressure was making it impossible for him to normally breathe, his bones were creaking threatening to break, fortunately before he passes out, the pressure receded.

Then he heard Katherinaʼs cold order that seemed to have come from the depth of hell.

ʼʼSeize all his assets and throw him into the Hellʼs prison.ʼʼ

The black-clothed man shuddered in terror when he heard the last order, nevertheless he still fearfully nodded his head, fearing that he may be sent to the Hellʼs prison as well, no word could be used to describe this prison, if not that itʼs the prison of no return.

ʼʼQuickly leave. I want to be alone.ʼʼ Katherina said in a bad mood.

The man in the black quickly stood up and bowed his before deciding to flee for his dear life, however, he stopped as he remembered another message he had forgotten to tell Katherina because he was too scared, he had the feeling that Katherinaʼs mood would improve once she learned about this message.

ʼʼPrincess, that person came back-”

ʼʼWhat? Why didnʼt you say that earlier?”

The man lowered his head inwardly thinking, ʼIsnʼt it because you almost killed me?ʼ. Well, there was no way heʼd say something like that. Only Hellʼs prison awaits him if he were to do.

Seeing the man turned into a mute, Katherina waved her hand and dismissed him, her mood had improved.

ʼʼForget it. Iʼll go see her.ʼʼ

She then leaves the mansion disguised to go see that person. Someone she hasnʼt seen in years.

Back to Alexʼs Location.

Night came, The bright, full moon enveloping half the night sky splashed on the pitch-black ground with its illumination. The outlines of the leaves in the forest were visible.

The figures of Alex, Gracier, and Conrad could be seen sitting across the campfire which was making a Paki~ paki~ sound.

Silveria was not present she didnʼt want to make her presence known, she only appear when the two are inside the carriage and use a spell to hide her presence.

Suddenly Alex who was happily playing with his sister stopped and asked.

ʼʼI know that there are 04 empires, 03 kingdoms, and two principalities, but thatʼs all I did not have the time to read to get more knowledge on this world as I was too focused on getting stronger. Conrad, can you help me?ʼʼ

Gracierʼs interest was immediately piqued, she doesnʼt know anything about the outside world, after all, it could be said that Alexʼs question was timely, almost as if it was intentional.

Conrad did not immediately answer, he pondered for a moment before starting to talk.

ʼʼAs you may have heard, there are four livable continents.ʼʼ

ʼSo this meant there are more than four continents?ʼ Alex wondered but decided to listen to Conradʼs explanation for now.

ʼʼHumanʼs continent named Alexa, Beastmenʼs continent called Bestia, Dark Continent home of the demon, Elfira homeʼs of Elves.

Alexaʼs continent is composed of:

04 empires: Drexia Empire, Holy Crux Empire, Sarz Empire, and Far East Empire.

03 Kingdoms: Renault Kingdom, Phaoh Kingdom, and the Sia Kingdom.

02 principalities: Andoras Principality and Lorn Principality.

ʼʼBig brother, what is it a Principality?ʼʼ Gracier interrupted Conrad and asked as it was her first time hearing such a term.

ʼʼA principality (or sometimes princedom) can either be a monarchical feudatory or a sovereign state, ruled or reigned over by a monarch with the title of prince or by a monarch with another title considered to fall under the generic meaning of the term prince. By the way which type are the two principalities?” Alex ended his explanation with a question directed at Conrad.

ʼʼThere are sovereign states,ʼʼ Conrad said.

ʼʼI see.ʼʼ

Gracier finally understood what Principality meant, so stayed silent and watched Conrad continue.

ʼʼBy the way, Drexia Empire is the strongest empire followed by Holy Crux Empire, an empire governed by the church, after the Holy Crux Empire come the Sarz Empire, then lastly Far East Empire.

Drexa Empire is situated in the center of the continent while the Holy Crux Empire is in the north, Sarz Empire in the south, as its name suggests, Far East Empire is in the Eastern part of the continent, the three kingdoms and Andoras Principality are in the western part of the continent, Lorn Principality is near the Sarz Empire.ʼʼ

Conrad stopped to let them digest what he just said, then he continued,

ʼʼMoving on to the other continents. First letʼs talk about the Beastmenʼs continent: Bestia or Razen.

There are 02 empires and 02 kingdoms:

✒ The Lionheart Empire, home of the prideful Lion beastmen, and Wolfang Empire, home of the Wolf.

The two kingdoms are the Mixten kingdom where all lower Beastmens such as Rabbit race, Cat beastmen live, and lastly the Foxia Kingdom, home of the Fox, in terms of power they are the third, nobody likes to mess up with them even though they are extremely beautiful, itʼs almost women race. Itʼs a matriarchal kingdom, Ah!

It meant govern solely by women.ʼʼ Conrad quickly added to not allow Gracier to interrupt him again.

Gracierʼs eyes shined when she heard that, she was the urge to go there, patting her head Alex calmed her as he could guess what she was thinking, he had the same urge after all. He wants to see kemommi as well, especially the Fox one reputed for their beauty, however now wasnʼt the time.

Conrad was speechless as he witnesses the siblingʼs eyes gleamed when they heard about the Beastmen, especially the Fox. Coughing to break the unusual atmosphere, he continued.

ʼʼLetʼs move on the elven continent.

Thereʼs only one Empire, which shares the same name as the continent, Elfira. Then there are 02 kingdoms: the Lucia Kingdom and the Darkarda Kingdom, ruled by the dark elves. By the way, the Elfira empire is ruled by the High Elves, the current empress went missing two centuries ago. Nobody knows where she went.

Lastly, the dark continent or Asura continent, only one Empire, Crimson Empire, and several kingdoms. Thatʼs all you need to know for now.ʼʼ Conrad said before closing his eyes.

ʼʼThank you for the information,ʼʼ Alex said bowing his head, Gracier also did the same thing, Conrad only smiled.

The two siblings excused them and went to sleep.

Once alone Conrad sighed and with a melancholic look he mumbled, ʼʼLastly, there was the beautiful Arda continent, however now it is the Void continent. Truly a pity.ʼʼ

He then closed his eyes to rest, however, he was on the alert, nothing could bypass his senses.
