Death Guns In Another World

Chapter 285 - 272: The Truth

Silveria appeared and heaved a long after Alex fell asleep.

ʼʼTo think someone would come out this early to stop us. I thought we would at least reach the twentieth floor before anything happens; guess I was too naive.ʼʼ

Silveria muttered while checking their surrounding; after Artemia used a forced teleportation scroll, the group was sent into a random floor. Currently, they were inside a huge forest, sounds of birds chirping rang out, and the fragrance of fragrant flowers drifted around the air. There was even a waterfall not too far from Alexʼs group.

This place was a pretty good secluded paradise, but the precondition was that there werenʼt any people here, and this wasnʼt inside a dungeon.

Suddenly, Silveria, who was enjoying the first time in a long time, the feeling of a warm breeze against her skin, frowned when she sensed some presence coming towards her.

Soon, footsteps could be heard, and they got closer and closer until five humanoid monsters with pig heads appeared. They only held primitive weapons such as crude clubs made from uprooted trees and stone clubs.

The orcs that appeared looked at Artemia and Isabella with lecherous eyes; when they sat Silveria sitting there so calmly, they became enraged.

ʼʼBuhi, buhi~.ʼʼ

They started muttering some unknown language while pointing their clubs at Silveria.

Even though she didnʼt know what they were talking about, the fact that they looked at her with lust-filled eyes made Silveria; hence she flicked her fingers and,

Boom!

Those five orcs exploded, producing a gory scene.

ʼʼYou should stop pretending, little miss. We need to talk.ʼʼ Silveria said before sitting back where she was.

Knowing that she was busted, Artemia stood up and sat across Silveria after summoning a chair from her space ring.

ʼʼItʼs a pleasure to meet Alexʼs famous master finally,ʼʼ Artemia said; she tried to stay at the best of her capabilities. However, her voice still held some hint of playfulness when she spoke.

ʼʼI donʼt like to play around. Smart as you are, you already know my identity.ʼʼ Silveriaʼs tone leaves no room for a joke.

Artemiaʼs face became serious, and she said.

ʼʼYeah, I have speculated about your identity after doing some investigation that ended fruitlessly. Now that I saw you here, it became clear who you might be. Never I would have thought. A gift could materialise like this. I only thought at best you can speak with your Gift and only exceptional Gift has this ability. We are still frog at the bottom of the hell.

They exist things unknown to us.ʼʼ

When she said that last words, Artemia stared at Silveria.

ʼʼItʼs why I must go to higher worlds,ʼʼ Artemia added after a moment of silence.

ʼʼNot only you but others as well. Itʼs probably because you were eager to leave this world that you ended doing something you shouldnʼt have. I bet you forced the worldʼs door, and something came out to stop you; unfortunately for you lots, what appeared wasnʼt something you could defeat.

If only that it would have been good; however, the guardian that should only test you and judge if you are worthy or not to go to higher worlds was corrupted and result in your world suffered this terrible fate. You brought this upon yourself. If not because our starting point was here, I would have never let my master play your game and clean after you.ʼʼ

Silveriaʼs tone didnʼt sound friendly at all. Others may not know the truth, but after numerous investigations, Silveria understood the truth. Even though the original world got destroyed after that war, till today, some of the original world systems were still used. Back then, to go from one plane to another, you will face the guardian and pass a test before going to the next plane.

Well, powerful individuals could tear space apart and travel at will; however, individuals such as these were rare.

Between anchor worlds (Mysthia is one of them) exist guardian beasts. Anchor world is the term used to design a world with the worldʼs portal, more specifically Planeʼs door. This door links to higher worlds or lower worlds.

And because Artemia and others wished to ascend to higher worlds after finding out the existence of this door, a guardian beast came out; not only this guardian beast was powerful, it was corrupted as well.

ʼBetter pretend you are still sleeping, master. Like this, you will get more information. I just recently got some evidence. What I said was a half-truth, half-lie; I want some confirmation.ʼ

Silveria sent her voice into Alexʼs head; unlike what Artemia was thinking, Alex wasnʼt sleeping; no, he was still sleeping a moment ago. Because Silveria wanted him to hear their discussion, she woke him up.

Alex silently nodded his head and continued to pretend to be asleep; he regulated his breathing to the extent that it was impossible to know he was faking sleep.

Artemia lowered her head after hearing Silveriaʼs accusations. After a long moment of silence and after checking Alex and Isabellaʼs condition, being sure that those two were still sleeping, she finally talked.

ʼʼYou are pretty scary, do you know that?” Artemia said half-jokingly; however, Silveriaʼs eyes didnʼt even twitch; they remained cold as she stared at Artemia.

ʼʼUgh!”

Artemia felt uncomfortable under Silveriaʼs stare. She could only sigh and admit everything.

ʼʼWhat you said is true. One day we stumbled upon that unusual, extremely tall black door. After numerous analyses and speculation, we came to know about the purpose of this door. Did you know that Typhania is a High Elf, a race that shouldnʼt exist in this world, the dwarves that got wiped out were said to come from a higher world a long time ago. In fact, Iʼm not also an original resident as well.

I donʼt know what happened, how I, no, we end up here. I will tell you something usually only a few people know. Iʼm not human; Iʼm Half High Angel; Iʼm a mix between a High Human and a being from the Angel race. I know you must know about those special races, that exist only in the higher worlds, even High Human is said to have gone extent over there.ʼʼ

Silveria put on a startling expression just for the sake of gaining more information.

Unknown to her, Artemia continued,

ʼʼAnd why I know all these things, it is because when I got close to the black doors, some memories that should have existed previously inside my head but sealed got unsealed. Same thing with Typhania. We just want to go back and find about we really are. However, we made a big mistake and paid the highest price.ʼʼ

Alexʼs breathing almost became unnatural when he heard about these revelations. However, he quickly controlled his breathing once more and continued to listen to their conversation.
