Death Guns In Another World

After receiving Lilith's message, Alex smiled. 

''Ops! Sometimes it dawned over me that I didn't have any defensive skills; I must think of something.'' Alex said while dodging another water bullet.

[Kuh! Your humans are always trying to disturb my sleep.] 

Unexpectedly, the Sea Dragon was intelligent enough to speak human language. This greatly startled Alex. 

''So can talk, huh?! Doesn't change anything.'' Alex spat out while firing a phantom bullet at the monster; as expected, it did nothing to the monster. 

[Today, none of you shall live here alive, I will slaughter you and destroy few humans cities.] The sea dragon said threateningly, but the only response he received from Alex was a simple chuckle; the monster became surprised; normally, when he faced such a threat, he should have rushed forward in rage to defend his peers, like that the monster could catch him off guard, unfortunately, the monster plan failed miserably. 

As far the monster could remember, he was born in the sea, grew up in the sea in peace, but recently, this peace was broken, but some unknown people dressed in robes catching his brethren, and those caught never came back. The sea dragon knew that something was being done to those captured; humans and other creatures are vicious after all. Since those kidnapping, the sea dragon had been on edge, living a life of fear; for his safety, he often created ocean storms for people not to pass its territory; it was a temporary solution, he knew, but it was the only thing he could do until he ranks up to the Saint Realm to have a human form to escape this nightmare, escape the fate of being captured.

Few months passed since no ship took this route; the sea dragon was thrilled, he focused on his Rank up; however, at a critical juncture, some humans appeared and interrupted him; at first, he thought it was the same group responsible for those kidnapping, but it wasn't them, furious and ashamed to have almost fled due to fear, the sea dragon decided to eliminate those humans and feed on them to perfect his Rank up.

[Die, you human!] The sea dragon bellowed, and numerous giant water bullets got created and were shot toward Alex. 

Alex was about to dodge, but suddenly, his right eye twitched; he had experienced this phenomenon many times, so he knew what would happen. He saw a vision in this future; the three water balls exploded just before reaching him to form a water net around him before; from behind, water tentacles tried to pierce through his body. As he was busy dealing with those attacks, the sea dragon unexpectedly appeared above him and swallowed him; the vision ended there.

A smile appeared on Alex's face; it was a vicious smile. 

'You want to play me to death? Watch how I play with you instead.' Alex sneered.

Following the future Alex saw, he did nothing; he acted as he did in that future until the sea dragon appeared above him and opened its enormous jaws to swallow him, then he smiled. 

Immediately, the sea dragon's eyes widened; he knew he had screwed up; he tried to fall back, but how could Alex allow that? 

[Time Stop] [Crimson Bullet] 

It was a deadly combo that should have been the end of the sea dragon; however, unexpectedly, at the last moment, a water bubble appeared inside the mouth of the sea dragon, which swallowed the crimson bullet to kill some of the impacts before the bullet exploded. 

Boom! 

The enormous body of the sea dragon got lifted into the sky before slamming into the sea, creating a terrible storm. 

Alex was thrown back; he hastily crossed his arms. 

''Roarrrrrrrrrrrrr!" 

The sea dragon roared in pain before jumping out of the water; its speed was so fast that one should be in awe compared to the size of its body. The bloody figure of the sea dragon with some of its scale falling off arrived before Alex and opened its mouth, a five meters long water spear was shot at Alex; he dodged; however, he felt chill down his body, somehow, the monster tail appeared behind him and was about to strike him. 

Everything happened too fast; Alex didn't have the time to put forth a perfect defense; without hesitation, he aimed the two silver guns behind him and shot two bullets that combined into one; this bullet clashed against the sea dragon tail and created an explosion. Borrowing this explosion, Alex successfully escaped from the attack. 

Just as he appeared in the sky, the sky rumbled, and a gigantic water spear appeared above him. This attack seemed to contain space property as Alex found himself unable to maneuver his body as he wished perfectly. 

''Damn it.'' Alex cursed aloud. 

[Dieeee human!!!!!] The sea dragon bellowed, and the water spear descended from the sky and reached Alex's in an instant; everything was perfect, that damned human was about to get skewed by his perfect attack, unlike its peers, the reason this sea dragon survived for so long and was crowded the sea dragon king was because of its intelligence and exceptional talent when it comes to battle. Just with those few exchanges he had with Alex, he knew he had exceptional combat sense almost at the same level as him; facing this kind of opponent, you better think twice, no three moves ahead to win, it was what the sea dragon did. He firmly believed that with his moves, he could win; getting caught was unexpected; however, forcing Alex to escape was a deliberate move for its final attack to strike. 

Alex watched the fifteen meters long water spear close in; it was already before him, ready to pierce his body when he opened his mouth and said.

[Shadow Shift!] 

The sea dragon about to savor his victory unexpectedly found his body shift through space and take Alex's place.

[What???] The sea dragon's eyes almost fell out of their sockets.

And the fifteen meters long water spear struck its owner, drilling through its body to slam him against the water surface. 

Kabooooom! 

The sea almost parted in two; even Sakuya's group sensed the sea tremble before it regained its calm again.
