Death Guns In Another World



This happened when Alex first announced his intention to go into the Infinity Maze. While Maria and most of the others accepted after thinking through there was someone who did not take it easily like they did.

In a house located near Eris city. Alex's first city after leaving the Temple of Gods.

From the outside, this house looks snug and comfortable. It has been built with blue stones and has spruce wooden decorations. Large, octagon windows add to the overall style of the house and have been added to the house in a very asymmetric way.

The house is equipped with a small kitchen and one average bathroom, it also has a fairly small living room, five bedrooms, a roomy dining room, a bar, and a cozy garage.

The building is shaped like a short U. The two extensions are linked by wooden sunscreens structures.

The second floor is bigger than the first, which creates a stylish overhang on one side of the house. This floor has roughly the same style as the floor below.

The roof is high and slanted to one side and is covered with redwood shingles. Two small chimneys sit at the side of the house. Rows of small windows let in plenty of light to the rooms below the roof.

The house itself is surrounded by a gorgeous garden, including hanging grape vines, a pagoda, a pond, and many different flowers. This is one of Alex's family vacation houses and currently, in this house, something was happening.

Boom!

The door was forcefully shoved open in the middle of the night.

A petite figure ran into the night while leaving tiny droplets of tears in her wake.

The young lady opened the gate with the fastest speed she could muster before running into the streets.

As for where she didn't think much about it.

She just wanted to get away.

Another individual came bursting out of the door. He looked at the escaping girl.

"Gracier!"

Alex didn't use teleport skills to catch up. He could outrun her but he slowly chased after her.

Gracier heard him and stopped in her tracks.

Actually, she wanted to continue running but she stopped her feet after her brother called out to her.

Finally, Alex caught up with her.

He slowly approached his sister.

The girl slowly voiced the question bedeviling her.

"Why?"

She asked.

He stopped.

He helplessly replied.

"Gracier you're misunderstanding..."

"Misunderstanding?"

She continued her questioning.

"You're saying you didn't want to leave?"

At this question stayed silent.

That was the answer, she reckoned.

"Why?"

The emotional Gracier asked.

"Why're you leaving?"

"Alexandra..."

He shook his head and once more tried to explain it to her.

"Don't react like that you know it's important."

"Couldn't you stay?"

Gracier started sobbing.

"Don't you want to stay here?"

''I will be back shortly. I wanted to stay and Level up with you.''

"Why, then?"

He saw droplets of tears dropping off her chin.

"I don't want you to go."

Alex felt pained.

He didn't know Gracier would react so negatively after his announcement.

She is a strong, calm, and introverted girl. There are not many who can move her so much. There are not many who can make her care enough to shed tears during departure.

She probably won't cry at her death. This is how much she treasures the people in her life, above her own.

Alex became soft when the girls cried. More so, he wasn't prepared to see her cry.

It must have come as a huge shock.

"Look, Alexandra.."

He explained.

"You're misunderstanding me. I might be leaving but I will be back. For you, it will be just a short instance."

"So, you're still leaving?"

She raised her voice.

"You said you would become my pillar of support. You said you would carry my burden with me. I meant what I said that night, I am happy to have you in my life..."

"Why?"

Gracier wailed.

"Why are you leaving?"

"Alexandra.." Alex felt perplexed, he was overwhelmed not knowing how to appease his sister without sounding harsh.

"I understand that you have something to do still I don't want you to go, my heart is telling me that I won't be able to see you in a long time if you leave. Big brother you're the one who gave me the support I craved. You're the one who gave my life meaning..."

Gracier cried.

"It was you... It had to be you..."

"Big brother!"

She glomped him before turning his shirt moist with her tears.

"Please don't go, you promised that you'll listen to me as I'm the most important person in your life. So please don't leave me I don't want something bad to happen to you.''

"Alexandra..."

Alex felt conflicted.

He didn't think she would react this strongly, refusing to understand his intention.

He allowed her to cry as he tightened his arms around her waist. The thought to stay emerged for just a second before he dismissed them.

"Gracier..."

He gave her another hug.

"I must go, even if it's for a moment. I must leave..."

Her shoulders trembled.

He felt her turning cold.

"There are people who need me. They're important to me too. They're the lights of my life."

"I can't be so selfish that I would forsake them for one person. I must continue, I must find the path to make everyone happy. I will make that happen, but, I need power, so now... I need to take on the mantle of the selfish villain..."

He shook his head.

"Little sister, can you wait for me just a while? Can you do that for me?"

Gracier grabbed his sleeves. She stopped sobbing when she thought about Wu Yan's words.

"Are they that important to you?"

"Very much so."

He answered without hesitation.

"They're the most important people in my life! Across all universes."

Gracier grabbed his clothes.

"What about me?"

"Of course, you too."

He beamed at her.

"You all mean so much to me."

Gracier slowly let go of Alex's clothes.

They continued hugging as if to enjoy what little time they had left. 

''Please don't act recklessly once inside the dungeon as we will be waiting and if you don't come back quickly I marry an ugly man and will ignore you.'' Gracier declared after accepting to let Alex go but what she said made Alex freeze and like a robot, he looked at her and asked in a trembling voice.

''You won't dare right?" 

Just imagining her sister with some ugly folk made Alex angry, no the idea of letting someone have his cute sister was unacceptable but he had yet to acknowledge this. 

''Hehehe We will see.'' Gracier laughed before skipping back to the house with Alex chasing after her seeking an answer. It was a funny sight to see.
