Death Guns In Another World

Silveria was also aware of her weakness. If something does happen, she will only hinder Alex's actions. She obediently backed away.

Alex gave Silveria a reassuring look. Then, he marched over to the door.

He pressed his palm against the door almost as if he had done something similar in the past.

It felt the same, the door was heavy and cold. Every time, he readied himself before giving the door that final push.

Now then, what was waiting for me beyond this door?

Alex pushed the door wide open with a mighty shove.

Boom!

An intense ray of light struck Alex's eyes forcing him.

They were in a white place.

When the light dimmed down, Alex was the first one to lower his arms. He looked around in astonishment.

He was in a pure white place.

In this space, there are only two individuals.

He was one of them.

The other individual hovered in the air. She's wearing a red gothic dress.

"Gracier?!"

Alex cried out.

Isn't that his little sister Gracier?

Gracier raised her head, showing the visage hidden beneath her bangs. Her cute looks threatened to dazzle everything in this place. She also had a deep golden pair of eyes.

When the two stared down at each other's barrels, Gracier's eyes lit up. She started giggling like a little girl. It seems she was overjoyed, her bliss was contagious.

"Big brother!"

Gracier cheered as if she was finally reunited with her long-lost relative. One couldn't help but notice the absolute elation in her voice. She glomped Alex with a might that could shatter boulders.

"Why? Why is Alexandra here?"

Alex frowned after noticing this anomaly. He turned grim.

"Another dream realm?!"

Gracier's next sentence confirmed his suspicion.

"Hey, Big brother…"

A savage glint flashed in her playful eyes. A malicious aura and bloody aura akin to that of a top predator rose at the same time as the flash of red light in her eyes.

She showed him a bone-chilling grin. Her eerily tender voice echoed in this space.

"Come play with me, I'm bored."

That familiar look, attitude, and words.

It was like when he fought his unstable sister when she was in a frenzied state.

Upon recalling what happened back then, Alex's pupils shrank instantly.

"Alexandra, you…"

Gracier snickered, and with a wave of her hands, powerful black flames rose from the ground. They shot towards him, rapidly expanding in his field of vision.

Alex tilted his head to the side at the last second.

Swish!

The black flames formed a black laser beam that shot past his cheeks, scratching him. He floated a grave expression.

"Oh! As expected of Big Brother you're durable and different from others."

Gracier clapped her hands like a playful child.

"Come play with me! Let's play to our heart's content shall we?!"

She reached out, she spread her palms open.

Alex's hair immediately shot up straight.

'Don't pull this on me!'

That was Gracier's signature move, the dragon's Eye ability.

"Tsk…"

Alex clicked his tongue, this isn't the time to hesitate. A flash of lightning arced around him.

Before an epic fight ensued, a similarly youthful voice rang in his mind, albeit this voice carried more authority and disapproval.

"Now's not the time for this!"

Alex stopped as the white space shattered into a million pieces…

He stood before the door. Suddenly, his eyes opened and he jumped backward, he stared at the shining door with a dark look.

When Alex woke up, the door also closed. Much to their surprise, the doors started shuffling around, and after about a dozen seconds, the doors finally stopped moving.

Excluding Alex, even Silveria wasn't amused with this revelation.

The doors shifted after an opening attempt?!

This means the process of elimination will not work.

Silveria closed her eyes, she steadied her mind while asking about Alex's state.

"You okay?"

Alex touched the spot where he got cut in the white space. He saw blood on his finger.

That was the leftover blood from when the fake Gracier cut him.

His wound already healed up but he still laughed at himself.

"Maybe, I think we can call this trouble…"

He got hurt in that dream realm, and that damage was reflected here in reality.

"A real dream?"

Silveria roamed her gaze over the doors that just shifted locations.

"This means we aren't supposed to open the door randomly…"

Alex wiped away the blood on his face.

"Nope, I am going to try it a few more times. I don't see any other way…"

But, those doors will re-shuffle, no?

Silveria didn't say that though.

Indeed, there seems to be no other way.

"Let me try."

She suggested.

Alex wanted to shoot her down but he relented after seeing the resolute look she was sporting. He nodded after a brief pause.

"Don't close your eyes. If you close your eyes then I will go wake you up immediately!"

She nodded. She started walking in the general direction he was moving in.

The doors will reshuffle, it doesn't matter which door they try.

Unlike Alex, Silveria didn't give herself the chance to regret her actions. She pushed open the door closest to her.

There were no lights, no dreams.

What was waiting behind the door was a mirror.

"A mirror?"

They both flinched at the same time.

The Silveria in the mirror started moving instantly. She took out a dagger and stabbed at Silveria's chest much to her surprise.

Splash!

A hand stopped the blade from reaching Silveria. The masculine hand gripped the blade so hard that blood started sipping through his iron grip.

The Silveria in the mirror took back her dagger.

At the same time, the door slammed shut as the doors started shuffling once more.

Silveria didn't mind the situation. She looked at Alex and his bleeding hand.

"Don't worry, I did that on purpose…"

Alex pursed his lips when he noticed Silveria staring at his wound. He showed her his recovered palm to assure her he was fine.

"Looks like we are facing dreams and illusions not unlike the one we faced back in the land of green mist…"

"But…"

Alex pursed his lips, he waved the blood off his hand.

"We can't treat them like normal dreams or illusions…"

He suffered damage from both dreams and illusions.

They were faced with illusions and dreams on another level.

"Real dreams and real illusions…"

Nyx mused out loud, only Wu Yan can hear her though.

"Things have just gotten troublesome…"

Nodding, both of them exchanged a glance. They opened the door in front of them after the doors stopped shifting. They could only continue.
