Death Guns In Another World

As expected, women are still women. Always weak before compliments.' Alex secretly thought.

'I should use this move often.'

''I heard you want to see me?" Goddess Mea said, breaking Alex from his formulating thoughts.

''Yes,'' Alex responded immediately while thinking.

'No wonder she didn't immediately appear. She thought I wanted to see her instead of talking to her via a medium. Well, it's a misunderstood, but I work to my advantage.'

''I want to know what makes Mysthia so special for the Chaos Prince to target it.'' Alex raised a question.

Goddess Mea was greatly surprised because Alex even knew the name of the mysterious entity controlling the chaos race. But upon further thought, she immediately understood that it was normal for Alex to know this because apart from his gift's spirits who fought on the frontline, nobody would know that person better than they do.

Taking a deep breath, Goddess Mea created a table and chairs where they used to sit.

''You see, Mysthia is like the last firewall stopping the chaos realm invasion. If they breach this fireball, they could conquer the remaining worlds in the middle realm.''

Goddess Mea's revelation shocked Alex; although he had vaguely anticipated this, he was still shocked nonetheless. No wonder they wanted to get this world absolutely; its importance could not be underestimated.

''The middle realm is divided into two parts: lower part and upper part. They have conquered the lower part, and now they wish to conquer the upper part where Mysthia is located. Mysthia is the key to have access to other worlds on the upper part; also, from Mysthia, you can have access to the last portal leading to the higher world.'' Goddess Mea explained before creating tea and sweet.

''I understand, but I want to ask why you say higher world instead of higher worlds? From what a friend of mine told me, even if some of the higher realm worlds had been conquered, there are still many worlds out there. So, I was wondering why you say that?"

'It must be Nix's champion.' Goddess Mea recalled a certain redhead girl Nix often bragged about, saying she was superior to other reincarnated people until recently. She had been forced to acknowledge that Alex was superior to everyone else despite his late start.

Not even Mea could have anticipated this; none of them knew that Alex was the one they had been waiting for after the first one failed. It was better to focus on the current discussion than get lost in those thoughts.

''You must not know this, but the remaining world in the higher realm joined together to form one bigger world; you can call it realm if you want, but this realm was named the Higher world. If you ascend, you'll go into the higher world where many worlds existed, forming one bigger world. Well, it's like the US in your world, which is composed of 50 states; each state could be a country on its own. The higher world is like that.''

Alex nodded; he had just acquired a valuable piece of information. He was excited just by hearing this; he couldn't wait to go into the Higher World, the final stage of his dream. He must become the strongest there if he wished to compete for the seat of the strongest in the universe.

As if she could read his thoughts, Goddess Mea warned.

''It won't be easy. The higher world is nothing like you have ever experienced. The system over there is different and more advanced. The strongest on Mysthia can only be considered normal over there. There is a powerhouse everywhere. The most powerful are at my level; it was to say true Gods and goddesses are born in a world like that. So, you better not underestimate the higher world.''

Facing Goddess Mea's warning, Alex gulped and nodded, taking note never to underestimate the higher world because it would be shameful to fail because he became arrogant after gaining a little achievement in Mysthia.

Alex sighed in satisfaction; he had come to talk with Goddess Mea to gain information about why Mysthia was so special, but he had gained more than anticipated. However, there was still a question he must ask; this was not only for himself but also for others. Therefore he must know.

''Can we go back to our original world if we are powerful enough?"

Goddess Mea sighed because it was a question she had been expecting. When one gets more muscular, one learns some secrets. If previously you thought it would be impossible to do something, you'd be shocked to find out that it was possible with a certain amount of strength. It was exactly what happened in Alex's case, just that he was not sure if they could go back; he just needed a confirmation.

''Sure, it's possible once you are powerful enough.'' Goddess Mea answered, not hiding the truth.

Alex was delighted; he was sure that this news would make his girls happy. In the worst case, they couldn't see their parents; they could at least pay a visit to their graves and show them that they were doing fine.

There was another goal why Alex wanted to know if it was really possible to go back, which was to show Gracier and others their homeworld.

''I see, that's good news. I know it will not be easy, but we will be able to make it. We will go back no matter what.'' Alex declared with his eyes filled with determination; he had noticed something; since he arrived, Goddess Mea never looked at him in the eyes, the right eye to be exact. It was to the extent that Alex wondered if his right eye at his level could affect a strong opponent like Goddess Mea.

〖Of course it can; you can affect stronger people the stronger you will become.〗Silveria, who knew what Alex was thinking, said.

'I see. That's good to know. Another piece of information gained.'

Unexpectedly Alex had gained another piece of valuable information. After hearing Goddess Mea's warning on the Higher world, he thought he would be helpless at first; after acquiring this piece of information, he saw hope.
