Death Guns In Another World

Eri was feeling smug right now; she thought her words had shocked Gracier so much that she was unable to retort; two minutes had passed since her small jab toward Gracier, and yet the little devil was still silent, almost as if Eri's comment had turned her into a mute.

While Eri was secretly celebrating, the others looked at her with pity. Finally, Eri decided it was time to answer Gracier's question, she had fun, so it was more than enough. Unfortunately, the little devil happened to strike at that moment.

''You are right. I also fear for my future; I fear for a future where I would develop greatly in certain areas while you stay the same.'' 

Gracier's words were truly vicious, almost making others burst into laughter; when she was saying those words, she emphasized her chest, which was the same as Eri's, let not forget that one was fifteen years old while the other one was eighteen, it was sure that the younger one would develop more than the one who had hit puberty and still small in that area. Eri was sensible to the subject when it came to her chest, so naturally, after hearing what Gracier said, she was furious, so furious that the current her resembled a mad bull who saw red all over the place and was about to do the mad dash.

Gracier chuckled when she saw Eri's reaction; she wanted her to burst, and she would execute her next plan. For some unknown reason, she would feel reckless whenever this girl was nearby; she had never been so irritated by someone before. Normally as Fire element users, they should have been able to tolerate each other presence and get along well, even help each other, but no, on the contrary, they were constantly at each other throats.

Unexpectedly the result Gracier expected to see did not happen. At the last minute, Eri managed to calm down her emotions and sighed, not paying more attention to Gracier.

Alex and Maria exchanged a look and praised Eri's self-restraint. Suddenly, Alex's expression changed; he felt like his sister didn't plan to let the matter slide like that; she was preparing her next move and was ready to unleash. 

''Alexandra, behave!" 

Alex's warning was a thunderstorm inside Gracier's ears. She stayed silent but put on a wronged expression; Alex chuckled, deciding not to pay any more attention to his sister. He seemed to have spoiled her too much, and she began to behave like this. It's good to tease someone, but you should be aware that there is always a limit; doing too much might end up creating more trouble.

While Alex's action did not shock Maria, it did shock the others; they never thought he would step forward and rebuke his sister he seemed to adore and let run wild so much. Eri was happy, but she didn't let it show in her face; she kept a poker face and began explaining. 

''You wanted to know why I keep being respectful to Alex after our contract while it was not sure that we will encounter each other in the future, there are too many reasons, the first one being that a soul shackle contract meaning binds us until I have accomplished what written in the contract I will always be bound to him, to put bluntly I will never be free even if I run away.'' 

The girls nodded in understanding. Eri continued.

''As for the second reason is that I gave him a token that can let him connect to me automatically upon reaching the higher world.'' 

Alex nodded before showing the group a golden pendant with a phoenix image. Maria and others nodded, but suddenly their eyes widened. 

''What do you me the higher world? Aren't there are many higher worlds? Do your words just now sound like there is only one? Care to clarify for us to understand.'' 

Unexpectedly the one to talk was Lilith; she rarely spoke, she acted as an observer. Even Alex was curious as well; it was when Lilith pointed out that he became aware that since the beginning, Eri never said higher world but the higher world. 

Inside her dimension, Silveria was curious as well; she wanted to know how the worlds evolved after splitting from the original one. After becoming what she was now, she was unable to know about the outside world; she did not remember how many years they had been sealed for after the great war, just that after that terrible war, the once almighty world split into countless worlds classed as a plane, lower, middle and upper, with Mysthia being part of the middle plane.

Eri sighed when she saw everyone present being clueless about the upper worlds; if she had reincarnated in the middle world like Alex and the others, maybe she would be the same as them. 

''Normally, the upper plane was indeed filled with many worlds, but a few years ago, something happened that made the world in the higher plane fight. I don't know much about what happened, but after that, many higher worlds combined to form one bigger world, the higher world, while the other ones together with some worlds from other planes joined to form another big world, the Chaos realm.''

Everyone present except Alex felt their fine hairs stand on end.

Meanwhile, Alex felt a chill run down his back. He didn't know exactly why either, but all of his fine hairs were standing on end. His heart started pounding. 

Ba-dump! Ba-dump! Ba-dump! 

〖Big sister calm down you are affecting him.〗

Silveria's voice echoed inside Alex's head. He understood that the reason why his heart started beating so furiously was because of Nyx's emotional state, something that never happened. While Silveria seemed calm, Alex knew she was pretending to be calm. She was feeling rage inside, but because her sister, who normally wasn't emotional, was quite shaken up after hearing Eri's words, she should be the one to stay clear-headed. 

While Silveria thought she could remain calm, the following words uttered by Eri blew everything away. 

''The higher world I'm from is called the Original world, the other one is not-" 

Eri couldn't finish her explanation before she was blasted away; she was not the only one, sitting around the table except for Alex everyone else was sent flying. 

''Asshole!!!!" 

Alex muttered while silver light surrounded his body, making everyone who looked at him shiver; the mana in the air seemed frightened and disappeared, leaving the room manaless.

The girls were shocked by Alex with silver eyes.
