Death Guns In Another World

Joakim approached the couple, and he held the wine softly by the neck with one hand under the body and presented the label to Alex to inspect before explaining it and its origin.

Alex and Maria didn't care if this wine was from some famous brand or was too aged because they wouldn't know the brand anyway.

The waiter could see that the couple was not knowledgeable about the wine they offered; he found this too regretful. Still, upon a closer look at Alex and Maria, Joakim immediately understood why they wouldn't know, it was because they are not from here, not from this floor, not from this tower, and not a native of Exodus, so it was normal for them to not unknown as they spent their time climbing. 

Shaking his head, the waiter poured Alex's wine glass till the widest part; Alex then told the waiter his order for that evening, with Maria following suit. Her meal was salad while Alex asked for a ravioli. Joakim disappeared as soon as he registered their orders. 

When the waiter faded to the background once more, Alex looked up to Maria, focused on her chest where he believed whatever causing her to be in this state must be there, how much he wished to have an x-ray vision right now, it would help him see through her body, knowing where the problem lies, this would be the first step to his plan if it were what he thought it would be then he would have a chance helping his woman. 

Unfortunately, he didn't have an x-ray vision, nor his Divine Sense could act as a substitute as he hoped; this left the black prince frustrated, and Maria, who was observing him the whole time, noticed his state.

''Don't worry, it's fine. As I said, I will be back to normal in a few days; you don't have to try too hard for him.'' 

Maria's words made Alex more depressed; he racked his brain to find a solution when suddenly he had an idea. 

'Sil, can you help me? Didn't you say you have special eyes like your sister?' Alex asked, hoping that Silveria could help him as he had an idea.

Fortunately, asking for Silveria's help proved the right thing to do. 

〖Okay, but I will need to borrow your body.〗Silveria accepted to help him.

Unexpectedly Nyx said a few words after a long time.

〖Althought I'm curious about what you have in mind, you should hurry, as the Ice girl said this time the side effect she is suffering from is different and more vicious if nothing is done this might last more than a month and also if she recuperates her Rank would fall.〗

Nyx's words rang like an alarm bell inside Alex's head, now than ever, he must find a solution but first, he must check Maria's body to see whether or not what he had in mind would work.

'Okay, do it.' Alex gave his permission, and immediately Silveria acted.

Just as Maria was about to ask why Alex was not saying anything, she was shocked because his left eye turned silver. 

Silveria, who borrowed Alex's body, immediately scanned Maria's body, focusing his left eye on her chest; his eye pierced her body like an x-ray, he saw her heart almost turned into a glass heart which shocked him (her). 

〖This girl will be a strong weapon, a fearsome Ice user. Not too many have this ice heart, even back in our time. It's good she found love before her heart will turn totally into an ice heart; if not, she would be nothing more than a machine whose sole purpose would be destruction.〗Nyx, who knew what Maria's heart was explained, shocking Alex, he wanted more answers, but now wasn't the time, he must focus on what he was doing.

Beside Maria's glass heart was a small black matter beating like a heart. Upon seeing this thing, Alex understood that it was causing Maria's suffering, and his lips curved upward; now, he would try the second part of his plan. 

〖You seem happy,; you have a plan. Can you tell me now?〗Silveria asked after giving him back the control of his body. 

'Don't worry, you will know soon. I will need your help to do it anyway, but for now, I have a dinner to finish and something important to do after that.' Alex said and smiled at Maria, who seemed worried, probably because his left eye changed when Silveria was in control. 

''Don't worry, Alexia, I'm fine, and I have found a solution.'' 

''Okay, let's eat,'' Maria responded with a smile. She was happy that finally, a solution appeared. 

The two ate happily. When they had just finished Maria heard soft music playing in the background, just as she was scanning the whole floor searching for where the music was coming from, a commotion arose. 

''Look.'' Someone pointed at their table while another immediately said. 

''I think he is about to do that thing.'' 

Even without turning back, Maria already knew what they were talking about and why this commotion had started. Her heart began beating loudly; still, she turned around, and there on his knees was Alex; his eyes were staring directly into her eyes as he declared what every girl wanted to hear in their life once. 

''Alexia, I love you and want to spend the rest of my life with you. Will you marry me?" As he declared those words, he held out a ring, the most beautiful ring she had ever seen. A sparkling snow-white ring with an oval blue diamond that looked like her eyes. 

In that instant, Maria seemed to remember everything that happened to them, the first time she encountered him when they were children to the moment she made that ridiculous condition, to when she knew she was in love with him and he loved her back. His voice, the way he looked at her, his touch, everything thing about him sent her heart into a frenzy; she loved him more than anything, and seeing kneeling right now and asking her hand in marriage, the answer had been decided from the beginning. 

''Yes, I will.'' Under the moonlight, she gave her answer, and Alex put the ring on her finger. People started applauding, asking for a kiss, what they did before escaping back to their room.. Finally, the ice empress got owned.
