Death Guns In Another World

Chapter 758 - 713: Discussion with the Emperor 1

After talking with Sera and was now speaking with Maria and Sakuya, Gracier was present as well.

ʼʼI want you girls to head over the Far East Empire secretly.ʼʼ He said.

The three exchanged looks before Sakuya inquired.

ʼʼItʼs because of me, isnʼt it?”

Alex nodded; one of the emperorʼs shadows, a former member of the Far East Empire, had suggested that once she had the time, she must visit a certain shrine in the empire; there, something was waiting for her. It would help her greatly, her overall strength would be enhanced.

Alex nodded and explained.

ʼʼIndeed it is because of you, but there is another reason.ʼʼ

ʼʼYou wished to use this opportunity as a distraction, am I right?” Maria spoke, and Alex smiled.

ʼʼYou are. Iʼm planning to use this as a distraction. Noire will follow you and disguise as me; you know she is tall as me. With a bit of makeup, she would look like me. The four will draw every attention, letting me infiltrate the empire easily. Well, it may not fool them, but at least it would distract them.

Itʼs a silent war, not an open war. Even if they knew it was me, they couldnʼt declare it because by doing such a thing, they would be admitting that they did indeed kidnap Luna if not I would not go on rampage inside their empire.ʼʼ

ʼʼI see. Big brother, you plan to conceal your identity. Even if the Pope and some other officials of the church knew it was you, they couldnʼt announce it to the world because it would show their involvement in the kidnapping case. I understand, but what will happen if you kill the Pope, for example?

People will learn of your identity because it would not be some that can be concealed.ʼʼ Gracier asked, her heterochromia eyes locked onto her big brother.

Alex chuckled before stroking his sisterʼs hair.

ʼʼDonʼt worry, can the Pope be easily killed? I doubt it, no matter what would happen, just be sure that Iʼll come back with your sister-in-law, and we will be in one piece.ʼʼ

Before Gracier could open her mouth, Sakuya gave her a light chop over her head and rebuked her.

ʼʼStop thinking scary things. Your brother is strong. They might be some change in the plan once he infiltrated the empire, but you should believe in him as we believe in him.ʼʼ

ʼʼI understand, big sister Mio.ʼʼ Gracier finally stopped.

The group spent time leisurely until it was noon; someone arrived on the emperorʼs behalf to invite him to the Sideʼs villa, a villa located fifty kilometers from their mansion. The emperor owned it; not many knew this. He often uses it for vacation.

Alex exchanged a few words with the girls before leaving the villa, a hood covering his face. Just as they left the villa, Alex saw no carriage; it was only the man that came to invite him; just as he was about to voice out his confusion, the man spoke.

ʼʼBlack prince, please step closer to me.ʼʼ

Alexʼs eyes narrowed, but he still did what he was told; he was not afraid of any tricks because before the man could do anything, he would have died. The man nodded after Alex got closer to him and crushed something inside his palm.

A golden light enveloped them; Alex knew instantly that it was a short teleportation formation. He was surprised by the emperorʼs extravagance, but upon further thought, he understood why he did this. It was precautions; nobody knows how might be spying on his villa; he ought to be vigilant.

A moment later, they arrived above a small lake; the lake was beautiful, filled with many fishes; before Alex could admire those fishes, the emperorʼs voice reached his ears.

ʼʼOh? As expected of the Black Prince, you have become stronger than the last time we see each other; youʼre almost my equal now. Come this way.ʼʼ

The emperor was sitting inside a small cottage at the other end of the lake, a distance of roughly 300 meters, yet his voice still reached Alexʼs ears as though he was talking right before him.

Alex chuckled, and before the man that accompanied him could suggest that he takes a shortcut to a bridge on his left, Alexʼs figure blurred, and he reappeared inside the cottage in the next moment.

ʼʼOh?” Julius was pleasantly surprised by Alexʼs movement skill; he could not detect what exact skill he used because he felt two different energy mixed in this movement skill. While he could also travel 300 meters if he wished easily, he would tear apart space, but Alex didnʼt do that.

The man that escorted Alex here sighed, thinking that the emperor and Alex do look alike. The reason for this evaluation was that he understood the emperor the best.

Having served him for many years and also being members of the emperorʼs shadows, codename Mind, as he was in charge of intelligence inside the palace and Avalon, he understood his lord the best.

What he did when Alex arrived was to intimidate him, to gain the initiative in their discussion, to show how powerful he is, Alex had stepped into the Demigod realm, but the emperor was in this realm far from him. He didnʼt want Alex to think they stood equal just because of that; in a certain sense, it was because of his pride.

He felt insulted; Alex could be considered as the youngest to have attained the Demi-God realm at the age of 19; it was absurd. Otherworlder or not, it was an undeniable fact that reached that realm even faster than the previous otherworlders that set foot in Mysthia.

So naturally facing such youth, the emperor felt pressured and did something do childish, yet Alex didnʼt let it slide; he didnʼt let the emperor has the initiative as he retaliated immediately.

Thinking about what this means, Mind sighed; he was sure that his lord would soon challenge Alex. Maybe it might be before the discussion or after, but it doesnʼt matter as he was sure the emperor would like to spar against Alex judging by the huge grin plastered on his face.

ʼʼHow troublesome.ʼʼ
