Death Guns In Another World

Chapter 721 - Three Against One 1



''I promise.'' Unexpectedly Alex promised, and as he declared those words, he appeared to be serious; Leon and the others were shocked.

''I see, that's good then. Just wait.'' Elseria smiled before adding. 

''In the meantime, you should talk with Sera. Take care, see you soon.'' She then cut off the communication but managed to read Alex's lips at the last moment.

At the same time, when she cut off the communication, Elseria sighed and sat on the ground leaning against the wall; just as she was about to close her eyes, she forced them open because Freya had walked into the room, she was dressed in a snow dress. Still, the dress was riddled with holes and stained with blood; Freya's complexion was paler than usual, a trail of blood appeared at the edge of her lips. 

It was true that she was not severely injured, but her injuries weren't light either; sitting beside Elseria, Freya, who had overheard the entire conversation, asked. 

''Did you believe the boy when he made that promise?" 

Elseria didn't answer that question. 

''For an emotionless demon, you are sure considerate, hiding not to worry your disciple. How interesting, the past you wouldn't have done that.'' She teased. 

Freya replied. ''People change.'' 

''I guess you are right.'' 

Frowning Freya said. 

''Don't change the subject, please answer my previous question.'' 

''Tch! You are such a pain in the ass. Smart as you are, you must have guessed already. Or even your brain got turned into ice?" 

Freya's lips twitched; Elseria's words implied that the rest of her body had been turned into ice. Sighing, she said. 

''I know that it was an empty promise; there's no way he would stay still doing knowing. The boy is the emotional type; he would try to save his girl.'' 

''Bingo! You got the right answer, but my previous demand was a test.'' Elseria explained; Freya was confused. 

''A test?" 

''Yes, a test. It was to see if he were determined, knowing he would face an empire. To see if he would be capable of lying, not losing his determination, he passed with flying colors. It was why I rewarded him.'' Elseria explained, not really going into the details; however, Freya understood the rest. After all, Sera could be said to be her right-hand man together with the purple-haired girl. 

''Sigh! You are the reckless one.'' Freya sighed. 

''Fufufu! It will be fun to see that geezer's shocked expression upon realizing that he had messed up with the wrong person. After this, Alex's name will spread through the world.'' Elseria declared with her eyes twinkling. 

''And you will use this opportunity to rally a lot of people to our cause for the final battle?" 

Elseria didn't answer Freya's question, closing her eyes to rest.

''Ah! How troublesome it's why I hate politics.'' Freya closed her eyes and began to rest. 

Shortly after Freya closed her eyes, Elseria opened her eyes again and secretly chuckled. Upon remembering the last thing, Alex mumbled; she couldn't help but smile, feeling amused. 

He had said, with this, the favor I owe you will be paid. Naturally, he was talking about his goal to rescue Luna from the Holy Crux empire; At the same time, it would be impossible to kill the Pope given his current strength; damaging the empire's reputation was not impossible once he succeeded in rescuing Luna. 

In the past, Alex owed a favor (A/N: Elseria accepted giving Sera to Alex on the condition that he would owe her a favor). Elseria had thought of using this favor to ask Alex to find a way to cure her, but things didn't go as planned. He was more cunning than she had thought. 

''Hehehe! The future will be interesting.'' She mumbled before closing her eyes. 

Back to Alex's mansion. 

''Why do I have the feeling that you two are up to something?" Leon questioned Alex after seeing the final exchange between him and Elseria. 

''Well, we are using each other.'' Alex calmly replied. 

Sera smiled upon hearing Alex's reply. 

Leon nodded before asking a question he was burning to ask a long time ago. 

''What is the deal with Leonardo?" 

It was the same question he asked Leonardo a few days prior. Alex chuckled before answering. 

''Don't worry, you will understand in the future.'' 

While he did admit that there was a deal between him and Leonardo, he didn't go into details, but his answer was more than enough to answer their questions; they finally understood a lot of things that happened in the past. 

''We are all curious about your strength. You're the first among us to reach the Demi-God realm.'' Leon said, not more was needed to be said as Alex perfectly understood what he was implying. 

''Sure, let's go spar.'' He said with a smile. 

In a split second, Leon felt a tingling sensation on his scalp, and a chill spread directly from his head to toe.

In that instant, his friend, whose eyes had been calm and gentle a moment ago, had a distinct change in the twinkling of an eye.

It should be a pair of clear and gentle eyes, but at this moment, they carried a touch of incomparable devilishness and chill.

Leon froze for a moment before he burst into laughter.

''Hahaha! Sure, sure, let's go.'' 

The group left for the underground training ground, to fight to their heart's content.

The underground training room the group chose was the biggest one. 

Alex stood there on the platform with his arms behind his back. 

''Let's do this. We will fight by a group of four; I mean three against one.'' 

Maria and the others were shocked; they hadn't anticipated this. From Alex's words, he was sure of his strength, by suggesting that he was telling them that by fighting him by a group of three, they had more chance of lasting longer because one by one, it would end quickly and would be too boring.

''The first group will be composed of Leon, Kuina, and Eris,'' Alex announced the first group that would be fighting against him. 

The three beastmen exchanged looks before smiling; this fight would be fun.
