Death Guns In Another World

Chapter 877 - 827: Jealousy

The following morning Alex was the first to wake up, and seeing Artemia sleeping with a blissful expression on her beautiful face, he felt happy, blessed to have a woman like this in his life. He would have loved more than any to leave her sleeping some more, but unfortunately, he couldnʼt as they needed to leave; the others must be waiting for them in the Lionheart Empire.

He missed his sister, friend, and his women.

ʼʼItʼs time to wake up, sleepyhead,ʼʼ Alex said, trying to wake her up, but she didnʼt seem willing to wake up soon.

ʼʼEh! Okay, Iʼll let you sleep some more, but you will have to join us over there. Iʼm off then.ʼʼ Alex said before erasing his presence as if he had truly left.

It didnʼt take two seconds for the princess to refuse to leave the bed to run to the bathroom because she didnʼt wish to be left behind.

Alex couldnʼt help but smile, amused by how panicked Artemia was. He joined her, and the two took turns helping the other clean.

One hour later, they were ready to leave; the reason it took them so much time was that they needed to see the emperor and Artemiaʼs siblings before leaving. Alex talked with Katherina, who matured a lot; she was one step closer to her goal. The first prince, Adler, warned Alex never to make his sister suffer or else he would kill him no matter where he was.

He nodded, and after exchanging a few jokes with the emperor, the couple left, taking a direct teleportation formation to Lionheart Empire capital, Leo.

•••••

Alex was overwhelmed by the beautiful city before him; if previously he had thought his friendʼs hometown wouldnʼt be any more beautiful than Avalon, he had been greatly mistaken. Everywhere you look, your eyes will see tall buildings almost akin to skyscrapers from Dubai or Shanghai. There was only one color that dominated the capital, yellow gold.

It was to the extent that you would wonder if this color was the only color the beastmen here knew, but after thinking through Alex understood that it was the color related to the lion; it was normal for them to like it more than any other color.

After observing the surrounding for a while, Alex and Artemia left hand in hand. However, they stopped because guards accompanied Leon, and Maria and others arrived to welcome them.

ʼʼWelcome, my friend. Welcome, princess Artemia.ʼʼ Leon greeted his friend with a smile before respectfully greeting Artemia; it was unknown why but Leon couldnʼt act as he used with Eris and others before Artemia; it was almost as if she was superior to him.

Alex was happy to see his friend in the flesh after almost two months, but just as he was about to step forward for a bear hug. Leon winked at him.

ʼʼSorry friend, I better let you take care of your problem before talking. Donʼt worry; Iʼll tell my father that you arrived safely, but you decided to sleep because you were tired.ʼʼ

ʼʼThank you, my friend. I owe you one. Iʼll buy you a drink later.ʼʼ Alex felt grateful. Leon, together with the guards, left, leaving Alex and his family.

For a moment, the atmosphere was a little weird until Artemia broke the ice.

ʼʼItʼs good to see you again, girls. You must be Saeko, right?”

Saeko nodded absentmindedly; before she knew it, she was dragged Artemia somewhere.

ʼʼLetʼs go, there are many things I want to talk about. Gracier let go, Sakuya too,ʼʼ she asked them to follow; Gracier reluctantly followed while Sakuya chuckled, calling Artemia smart; she must have noticed how jealous Maria and Luna were seeing how close she had become to Alex and decided to let them spend some time with Alex, it was indeed a wise choice.

It was not like she was not also jealous, but unlike the other two, Sakuya decided not to make things difficult for Alex.

ʼʼOk, Iʼll follow you. Letʼs them have a bit of fun.ʼʼ Sakuya mumbled as she ran after the three girls heading into the commercial district.

Like most empires, the Lionheart Empire was divided into three districts. Still, unlike Avalon, there was the core district where the emperor, the nobles, and other families lives, then there was the commercial district, and lastly, the coliseum where the gladiators fought.

It was one of the places Alexʼs group would later visit.

•••••

After others left, leaving only the three behind, Alex awkwardly scratched his head, trying to start a conversation.

ʼʼHow have you been, my lovebirds?”

Luna and Maria exchanged a look before Luna spoke.

ʼʼWe are doing fine but not like a certain someone who seemed to have been enjoying himself so much that his face had become pale. I wonder how many times you did in a day.ʼʼ

ʼʼUgh!” Alex felt like running away, but if he were to do that, he would always do the same thing every time they began showing jealously. It would be asking for too much if, instead of making a woman accept that she wouldnʼt be the only one in your life, you were to forbid her from being jealous. Jealously was also part of a relationship like sex.

ʼʼI miss you too much. Letʼs explore the surroundings while you explain what happened while I was in Avalon.ʼʼ Alex skillfully dodged Lunaʼs obvious trapped; he kissed them on the lips in front of everyone to make them unable to temporarily control their bodies before he dragged them with him as he went in a random direction.

The two came to their senses, but it was already late; they couldnʼt only follow even when they had something to say. They knew he was making some efforts to please them, and they decided not to make things difficult for him.

ʼʼLetʼs go to the commercial district; there is a candy I want to buy,ʼʼ Luna suggested, and Alex nodded. Maria sighed before following them. She stopped Luna and suggested something; the two giggled before continuing to walk beside Alex. Although he wished to know what they were plotting, he decided not to ask and see what they were planning.
