Death Guns In Another World

Chapter 1231 - 1127: Summoning Ritual: Familiars

While Alex was preparing to go into the abyss, in the outside world, Kuina and Alice have finished their raid and by now stopped in a certain city in the empire.

The city of Blackmere was built in the center of a giant forest and is truly an evergrowing display of wonder. Its wonder is matched by the backdrop of a majestic mountain which has helped shape the city into what it is today.

The trade resources these mountains brought were of great importance, but they were also influential when it came to architectural designs as the vast majority of buildings mimic the broad slopes and steep peaks of the mountains.

The skyline is growing with similar skyscrapers and a new one seems to pop up every other week. Recreation is impeccable in Blackmere and it has attracted a lot of attention. Various cultures have left their mark not just on the cityʼs development, but also on the cityʼs identity.

What historically was a city of no variation has grown into a fusion of everything and itʼs this that unites the four hundred thousand people to this day.

Itʼs this multicultural identity that has truly left its mark. Hundreds of cafés, diners, and restaurants offer a plethora of culinary choices and those who feel hungry for something else could enjoy musical activities, arcades, nature, or one of the many other recreational venues.

But the girls werenʼt here for the enjoyment, they came because Alice have something to do here.

Somewhere in the city, Kuina examined the barrier installations around her. She praised the one responsible for this.

”I am genuinely impressed that you constructed this barrier, I dare say your mastery of magic surpasses many trained and well-known magicians.”

”Well, I guess...”

Alice stopped drawing magical formations, she also stopped channeling magic power into the formation. She nodded with satisfaction.

”Although I know how to do this barrier formation, itʼs still my first time actually casting this under a time and quality constraint, I can only accomplish this feat after reaching a certain level, Iʼm glad I can now do it. This magic isnʼt for everyone.ʼʼ

ʼʼYou are right, but please, just get on with it.”

Kuina propped up her parasol as she gazed upon the night sky.

Alice nodded before starting, she slowly closed her eyes as she felt the magic power swirling within her. Opening the magical taps within, mana slowly seeped out of her body in visible jets. Her magic power formed a vortex that blew away the air around her as it grew into a pillar that reached for the high heavens.

Soon, the area was suffused with magic power. Strong winds blew up dust and pebbles, it felt like a jet was taking off, and everything got swept up in this magical storm.

”Th-this power is awesome.”

Kuina who was watching the proceeding couldnʼt help but reveal a grave expression. She was filled with shock and anticipation, this girl will never cease to amaze her. Alice was full of surprises, so much that the Holy maiden wondered where is her limit.

She has seen this kind of magic power level before. It is precisely because she recognized this pattern that she couldnʼt believe her eyes.

Glistening in her magic power, Kuina watched as Alice continued emitting more magic power. While gasping, she mumbled in a stunned manner.

”I wonder what is your real origin, your core. Letʼs see the end result.ʼʼ She mumbled while staring at Alice chanting in the middle of the formation.

In the meantime, the latter consciousness was already within the realm of the vassal beasts exciting in another plane of reality.

She raised a fist and she slowly chanted words of power.

”I offer my blood to summon thee, give me thy true names!”

”Henceforth, my lifeforce will be thy sustenance, mine blood thy home, give unto me thy powers and join my corporeal body. Do my bidding!”

”Whosoever enters this contract, if he is willing, come forth...”

”I, Alice summon thee!”

Aliceʼs chant echoed in the area, ignoring the blowing winds, she didnʼt care about her roiling magic power. Then, everything abruptly stopped when she finished her chant.

Alice abruptly lifted her hand and a drop of blood started floating up, defying gravity as it flew 10 meters into the sky. Next, her blood evaporated into a blood mist and dissipated into nothing.

Brmm!

A small black point appeared in place of the disappeared blood. It started swirling like liquid suspended in the sky. Soon, a black hole appeared in the sky, and from it, immense magical power poured forth.

BANG!

Without a warning, the space imploded as a shockwave blew outwards.

Kuina had to use her parasol as an anchor to keep herself standing, her hair bellowed in the ensuing winds. She continued staring at Alice with an astounded look.

”What terrifying magic power, does she possess more Magic power than me?”

She sensed something, she looked up at the black hole in the sky.

”Itʼs here...”

Two streams of light flew out from the gap in dimensions.

Boom!

White flames and black lightning exploded outwards from the spatial gap.

The white flames gently floated around, everything it touched, air or ground, got incinerated into nothingness. It was like the burned object never existed, as a supernatural force sent them back to their origins.

Meanwhile, the black lightning came crashing down like a meteor. Everything it licked, barrier or space, got torn to bits like a shattered mirror. Itʼs not a collapse of space, the black lightning just broke everything it touched.

The anomalous flames and lightning rampaged.

”I have never seen flames or lightning like that before!”

Kuina said with a grim look. She tried hard to suppress the anxiety rising within her.

She inhaled, accidentally swallowing a mouthful of magic power as she clenched down hard on her parasol.

It was then she saw them.

Inside the white flames, inside the black lightning. Two distinct lifeforms stood as they slowly materialized.

The small white dragon had flames covering it like a fancy coat of flames. Its torso is white and its eyes are blue. It sported white whiskers that fluttered like elegant ribbons. Looking rather regal, the creature had a pair of webbed wings, and talons could be seen near its webbed arm.

Its tail is long and made up of white flames. It flailed its tail around like a cannon ready to fire anytime at its woeful foes. Every time it thrashed its tail, white embers would rain down, reducing the air level by returning them to nothingness.

Elegance and regality.

The second lifeform is a strange-looking tiger, this black tiger was arcing with black lightning. Its Torso is largely black, some parts were so dark one could hardly see them against the night sky. Its blood-red eyes complemented its brutal crown well. Its limbs had thorny extensions while its arm had metallic wing protrusions that looked like cool vambraces.

Its wings are covered in a protective coating, it looked like a fan adorned with thorns near its ends.

With a tough-looking baseball mitt for hands, the black tiger had three-digit nasty-looking claws. Behind it, its meaty tail looked like a battering ram that shook the space whenever it flailed its tail. One wouldnʼt be comfortable anywhere near this tail that looked like it could destroy anything with a single whip.

The black tiger and the white dragon stood side by side, their flames and lightning fell upon the summoning platform. They were like two different kings, one sagely and divine, the other, cruel and domineering. Witnessed by heaven and earth, the two summoning beasts integrated with Alice in a flash.

Swoosh!

The land returned to peace.

With the area turned into a wreck, the barrier Alice installed also got dispelled while he was busy summoning.

Fortunately, the two familiarsʼ overwhelming power didnʼt leak out or else the consequences would have been dire, innocent would have died because of those two overwhelming power, it was not something mere mortals could endure.

Finally, Alice slowly opened her eyes who were previously golden but now returned to their passive blood-red state. Excitement could be seen written all over her face. She was very pleased with the two familiars she summoned. Everything is for the sake of survival and to support her master in the approaching war, she could feel it, the war was close.

They have to do their utmost to survive, no matter how dire the situation would be, they have to survive.

The first toward survival was now completed, Alice thought with a smile.

Kuina looked at Alice who was over the moon. A cold sweat flowed down the side of her head. She awkwardly smiled.

”Looks like you summoned two incredible vassals.”

ʼʼYeah! Iʼm grateful for this, if only others can also use this ancient magic, unfortunately not everyone is tailored for this.ʼʼ Alice lamented but got no reply which shocked her and it was then she lifted her head to see to her horror Kuina falling toward the ground face full of sweat.

Swoosh!

ʼʼPrincess!ʼʼ Alice cried as she appeared next to her and caught her falling body, the latter body was hot.

ʼʼWhat?ʼʼ Facing the unexpected situation, Alice was perplexed. It was then Kuina opened her mouth and vomited.
