Death Guns In Another World

Chapter 1234 - 1130: She is no Ordinary

This could be said to be her first time meeting the ruler, the empress of the Foxia Empire, a kingdom that rose to the level of an empire in this generation, under the tight leadership and competent hand of the Iron Fox empress, becoming the third superpower on the Demi-humans continent, no normal woman could accomplish this.

ʼThis woman is truly extraordinary.ʼ Alice assessed, doing her best to get rid of the chilling sensation she felt the moment that woman laid her eyes on her.

ʼIʼm not ordinary either.ʼ Alice declared inwardly while fighting the immense pressure coming from the empress, the latter was impressed, so much that she smiled.

ʼʼWe finally met Alice from the wonderland.ʼʼ Kuinaʼs mother declared while looking at Alice.

The latter frowned upon hearing how Kuinaʼs mother referred to her, she didnʼt like it so she said.

ʼʼAlice White or Alice Touch will do.ʼʼ

She sat across from Kuinaʼs mother, and the latter smiled as if she had expected such a reaction from Alice, it would have been boring otherwise, her playful nature didnʼt change and she felt like continuously teasing Alice, however, there was something she had to make sure, everything is for the future of her child.

ʼʼMy bad, I shall take note from now on.ʼʼ Kuinaʼs mother declared.

Clap! Clap!

The corners of Kuinaʼs mouth lifted into a smile. She extended her hands, clapped twice, and soon after, a ghost-like figure in a maidʼs outfit drifted toward them.

Soon, tea was served, lifting her tea toward her lips, the empress first inhaled the teaʼs scent before drinking it. After taking the first sip, she delicately put the teacup back on the tray before staring directly into Aliceʼs eyes, the latter didnʼt turn down her eyes and stared back, both women soon started staring context which lasted for a few minutes before the empress sighed.

ʼʼWhat do you know about Kuinaʼs condition?” She asked and Alice understood that the empress was surely asking if she knew the nature of Kuinaʼs weird condition.

ʼʼNo!ʼʼ Aliceʼs answer was quick and short.

Kuinaʼs mother observed Aliceʼs face for a moment before nodding after seeing that the girl didnʼt know what she said. She sighed in relief upon reaching this conclusion. Here comes her next question, the one that would determine how she would handle this girl, to know if she was worth bringing her to their side as the things stand they would need allies in the incoming confrontation.

As a woman, she understood that a confrontation was inevitable

ʼʼDo you like my daughter?” The empress asked Alice out of the blue. Of course, the like here wasnʼt referring to some romantic feelings but to appreciation between friends, and Alice could understand this much.

ʼʼYeah, I have come to appreciate her companion and will not mind continuing. I can learn many things besides Kuina because we do have an affinity with each other.ʼʼ Alice explained much to the empressʼs joy before adding.

ʼʼI donʼt know what youʼre trying to achieve here but I can assure you that if there is anything I can do to help Kuina, my friend I wonʼt hesitate, so donʼt hesitate to tell me what you have in mind.ʼʼ

The empress was surprised by the sudden declaration but she soon smiled, declaring.

ʼʼGood, come closer.ʼʼ She ordered and Alice obeyed, soon the empress whispered something into Aliceʼs ear, the latter body froze and she couldnʼt help but feel a chill running down her spine after hearing the empressʼs declaration, she finally understood and if what the empress said was true then, it a huge storm was brewing ahead, insensitive as she might be she understood this much.

ʼʼI will help to the best of my abilities but there is a condition.ʼʼ

ʼIt would have been weird otherwise.ʼ The empress thought.

ʼʼIʼm listening.ʼʼ She said.

ʼʼFight me,ʼʼ Alice announced her condition much to the empressʼs shock, who was expecting something else.

After a short moment of silence, the empress replied.

ʼʼOkay, I accept. Letʼs start shall we?”

To this question, Alice nodded eagerly to start.

°°°

A few minutes later w inside a training ground, destroyed beyond recognition were two people, one was standing while the other was lying on her knees.

The pain that was once sharp and burning now felt dull and distant. She had endured it for far too long and now felt like nothing more than an empty husk of who she once was. Panic slowly took over as, for a moment, a way out of this pain began to seem more and more unrealistic. For a moment she focused on the pain, honing in on every sensation.

Where it came from, how badly it hurt, and how badly she wanted it to stop.

It was difficult to focus between the moments of pain and the voices telling her to stop what she was doing, but she refused and pressed onward. She longed for her bed, a hot bath, or just a fluffy pillow to lie on, but right now that wasnʼt an option for her. Right now all she cared about was carrying on and ignoring the pain.

Suddenly, the scene changed and, she felt her death it seems that there was nothing she could do to escape from this ultimate death.

ʼI never thought it would end like this, lying in a puddle of my blood. But so be it, the end of my life, crushed in an instant. Fine then, let it be.

I can survive this, I know I can. Iʼm still standing, that counts for something right? Right. So now what? I canʼt move, Iʼm too tired, too weak.

Hopeless, this is absolutely hopeless. Iʼm going to die, I know it. But I donʼt want to, I donʼt want to die I want to live. Please, I want to live. Is there nobody out there? Please, save me.

Iʼm tired, so tired. But I cannot give in, I cannot sleep. To sleep means to die, I must stay strong. But my body canʼt take it anymore, perhaps I should just lie down for a while, save my strength until help arrives. Yes, yes that would be best. Save my strength.

Help will be here soon.

Iʼm going to die. Oh god, Iʼm going to die! I can feel it, Iʼm going to die! Nobody has found me yet. No, please, I donʼt want to die all alone. Somebody, please find me.

Iʼm so alone. I donʼt want to die.

Tired, Iʼm so tired. Iʼll take a nap, a quick power nap. Or my last nap. Either way, I canʼt keep my eyes open any longer, I need to rest. A quick nap will be fine.ʼ

The final conclusion at which she arrived was that this woman deserved her reputation, she was not to be underestimated, it would be good for her master to have someone like this under his control, the white-haired beauty thought.

For the first time in a while Alice had lost in a fight she previously thought she would win, a testament to the empressʼs strength, this woman must never be underestimated. Even if their levels werenʼt that different, one being level 181 while the other being level 182, the one gap level was too much and Alice lost.

ʼI have lost but this is fun because Iʼve learned from my failure.ʼ

Alice stood up with a difficulty, her clothes were drenched in blood but she was still smiling.

°°°°°

In another location, a red-haired beauty was fighting against someone and she had the edge over this person. She killed her enemy in the most ruthless way possible.

ʼI never thought it would end like this, lying in a puddle of my blood. But so be it, the end of my life, crushed in an instant. Fine then, let it be.

ʼʼI need to sleep, I wonder how my brother is doing.ʼʼ Gracier declared at the end of her fight w looking in a certain direction, where her brother should have been.
