Death Guns In Another World

Chapter 754 - 709: The Discussion 1

It was cloudy at dawn.

The morning sun was like fire.

The blazing red sun rose from the eastern sea, and the darkness began to fade before sunrise. Numerous rays of light thrashed through the clouds. Light and darkness intertwined with each other. As the sun rose, all the clouds in the sky were illuminated into a brilliant picture of light and darkness.

The light pierced the clouds and passed through the sky. The gloom was fading, and the bright light was falling from the sky, shining on the distant sea, scattering among the flowers and plants of Avalon, filling the tall buildings and large mansions of the capital. Everything seemed to happen instantly, yet it seemed to be everlasting.

It was a sunny day.

Alexʼs villa, every one of the villa residents had woken up; those charged for taking care of the villa were busy doing their job while Alex and his friends reunited in the biggest meeting room. Everyone was present, be itʼs Gracier or Noire, except for the villaʼs personals; everyone else was present, even the silver-haired goddess was present.

Alex sat on the biggest seat; Maria was on his right, followed by Sakuya, then Sera and Gracier.

Leon sat across from him; sitting beside him was Noire. On his left were Silveria, Artemia, Lilith, Kuina, and Eris.

Seeing this arrangement, Leon chuckled and glanced at the woman sitting beside him and mumbled.

ʼʼSoonʼʼ

ʼʼWhat will happen soon?ʼʼ Noire, who had no idea what his words meant, inquired, but as expected, Leon chuckled, not answering; Noire could only drop the matter and focus on what was in front of her. She was curious about her masterʼs; last night, all he had said was to be ready for a massacre.

ʼʼMorning, everyone. Iʼm happy to see you all. Without wasting our time, letʼs begin the meeting.ʼʼ Alex said after clapping his hands.

ʼʼWe shall give this meeting a codename because we are all gathered here to rescue a friend, a sister, and a lover.ʼʼ

It was Silveria who said those words.

Alex felt a headache coming, especially when he saw the shine in his sisterʼs eyes when she heard about giving a codename to this operation. Leon seemed to agree as he nodded, Kuina being what she is; she also nodded; it was just for fun. Eris didnʼt know what to do, follow her friends or not? She was indecisive as always.

Maria was silent like Lilith while Artemia was chuckling, finding Silveriaʼs suggestion funny, not that she would dare to voice out because she was afraid of the latter retaliation, she was really afraid of the silver-haired beauty whose beauty surpassed everyone in this world, maybe Typhania could be said to be slightly closer to her level.

ʼʼWhat name do you have in mind?” Alex said just to ask whether he used this name or not, rest to be seen. He was sure she would say something outrageous, and Silveriaʼs following did not betray his expectation.

ʼʼLetʼs call it Operation Dragonʼs slayer.ʼʼ Silveria declared proudly. Most of those present tried their best not to laugh while Alexʼs lips twitched repeatedly, and he sighed.

ʼʼWhy not call it Operation Dragonʼs ball while youʼre at it. Enough, letʼs begin!” Alex said he felt like an idiot listening to Silveriaʼs words, everyone laughed, and the atmosphere turned joyful suddenly.

ʼʼLast night, I have talked with Sera. She worked previously under Elseria, and she knew few things.ʼʼ Alex began, he did not go into the details, and the others didnʼt ask either.

ʼʼWhat did you ask about?” Leon was the one that raised this question; the others except for Sera and Silveria were curious as well.

ʼʼI asked for information about the officials stationed here by the Holy crux empire.ʼʼ

ʼʼWhat do you plan on doing with this list? Kidnap them?” Silveria asked, acting as though she didnʼt know the answer.

Alex calmly responded. ʼʼI will kill them all.ʼʼ

There was a sudden silence; not even breathing could be heard; the silence was so disturbing that finally, Kuina opened her mouth and asked the same question Sera had asked last night.

ʼʼYou are joking, right?”

Alex shook his head to indicate that he was serious; even Lilith frowned, thinking that he was too extreme.

Only Gracier did not buy it, she chuckled and declared.

ʼʼStop playing, Big brother, please be serious.ʼʼ

Alex was slight, among everyone present. He had not expected his sister to be the sharpest one and immediately noticed that something was not right, that he was joking.

ʼʼHehehe! What makes you think that Iʼm joking, Alexandra?” Alex asked with a smile.

Gracier smiled; she could feel everyoneʼs eyes on her; she was calm as the surface of a lake when she responded.

ʼʼItʼs because you did not emit any killing intent when you said those words. Normally, you should have emitted at least a small amount of killing intent when talking about killing another person, no matter what. You sound too natural; nobody canʼt do that, at least not my brother.ʼʼ

Alex was shocked, so were the others; even Silveria was dumbstruck, her jaw almost hit the floor. She had not thought like that, nor was she so observant when Alex was talking last night. Nyx, chained against the black chair, nodded.

The most ashamed of all was Sera; as the assassinʼs Queen, she had failed to detect that, she overlooked that small detail. Indeed, when Alex declared those words, his face, his expression must have looked dead serious but not once he emitted killing intent, not even once; if she had paid enough attention, she might have noticed this little detail.

She was the assassinʼs Queen and knew better than anybody how hard it was to hide oneʼs killing intent.

Alex really didnʼt emit any when he was seriously talking about killing the officials of the Holy Crux empire.

Normally, it should have been odd; she should have detected such important detail but failed; this could be attributed to her negligence but also to Alexʼs clever way of making her focus on something else; he knew she was an assassin, he must have prepared how to deal with her meticulously, once he fooled her it would not be hard to fool the others but what he had not expected what his sisterʼs keen senses which should be attributed to her evolution into a higher lifeform.

Sighing, Alex admitted defeat.
