Death Guns In Another World-Chapter 69 - 67: The Wyvern’s Heart Part 1
"Thank you for the help I truly appreciate it, I really do,'' Alex said sincerely.
''You welcome. What your answer gonna be?" Leena asked with a smile.
Taking into account Silveria's opinion and his analysis, Alex decided it was wiser for him to accept her offer than refusing. He may try to do everything alone but somewhere along the way he may lose his way and get stuck there forever. Instead of playing the proud lone wolf better accept some help if you know not to depend too much on it. Nobody progresses without someone's help, you will need it or you won't truly evolve.
''I accept.'' That was all Alex said.
Leena smiled, a truly beautiful smile this time, it was different than the other time. Her smile shone like stars after dark, with no city lights to dim them. For in that moment time stopped to stare and admire her. Alex did his best to not fall for her.
Seeing Alex looking elsewhere Leena was amused, ''I'm glad you accepted. Take care of me from now on.''
''Likewise,'' Alex responded.
''And I forgot to mention that Maria and the other are currently Level 27 and Level 26 respectively. Maria caught up with Leonardo after my friend started training them. By the time the Imperial Academy will start they will be Rank 3, you got serious works to do.'' Leena announced while looking straight into Alex's eyes.
Alex bit his lower lip, it was mortifying to hear this news considering his doing his best it is just he must try harder. The gap between them was widening, if it's too apart it won't be good. He must catch up with them somehow and he has the perfect opportunity for this. In the incoming test, he must sweep everything on his way. Alex's fighting spirit was ignited.
Seeing this Leena's lips quirked upwards in a joyous smile, still, she warned Alex.
''I know what you are thinking but do it in moderation. You won't be alone, you'll have teammates, also Gracier will be there. Watch over her, she is precious. I'm glad you have made me met her.''
''If it's not impolite may I know your relationship with her and do not sell me I saw her potential reason why I did what I did. I want to know your real motivation. What pushed you to do that.''
Leena heaved a sigh and looked outside, she observed the passerby from the veranda of the second floor of the Golden Nugget for a couple of seconds before answering Alex's question.
''She is my kin. I knew it the moment I saw her, her bloodline resonated with mine the moment I saw her, she may be a half-Elf but I still feel it, half-Elf bloodline is pure. Do not ask because it is complicated. To explain everything to you for you to truly understand I would have to speak about things I don't want to speak about. Just know she's my kin and the oath I took back then was for her good. You'll understand in the future.''
Alex took a few seconds to digest what she said. Even though he wants to know why she didn't tell Gracier this instead of doing what she had done, Alex stopped himself because he knew Leena must have her reasons for not telling Gracier. Also, he was sure Leena must have done some digging and probably knew Gracier dick of father, so if she was to present herself as her kin, some unwanted questions may arise, and depending on the outcome they may not happily interact as they do today.
''I understand I won't ask anything. I know you will inform us in due time.'' Alex announced.
''Thank you for not asking any question. As you said, you'll know in the future. In the meantime please take good care of her will you?" Leena asked.
''I will. Leaving these matters aside don't you have something for me?" It was now Alex's turn to ask something.
''Oh! Actually I do have something for you. I thought you weren't going to accept, so I'll be returning home with the gifts. Sigh! I guess I was wrong.'' Leena said as if she couldn't bear to separate from the gifts she'd prepared. 𝒇𝘳𝐞𝚎𝓌𝑒𝑏𝒏𝑜𝙫ℯl.c𝚘𝒎
Alex's lips twitched as he said, ''Just bring it, will you? No need for a drama.''
''You are no fun at all. Do you remember when I told you that I'd canceled the orders you made at Smith's store?"
Hearing Leena's question Alex nodded his head, ''I do, why do you bring that up now?"
''Well, it's because of today's gifts I canceled it. Here is it.''
Saying that she weaved her hand after making sure beforehand the two were truly alone as she had asked. She did this simply because what she was about to bring out may ignite onlooker's greed and she knew how deadly that Sin can be. Deadly not for her but for Alex who will suffer people's greediness if someone were to lay an eye on one of the items she was about to bring.
After sweeping the floor whole terrace once more, Leena summoned a bunch of items out.
Even if he was surprised by Leena's move because he didn't see any ring nor any necklace that could serve as storage except for the earrings that he doubted they were space rings, Alex's attention was drawn elsewhere, to be more accurate it was drawn towards one of the items Leena brought out.
it was clothes, black pants made from unknown material, a dark gray long-sleeved shirt and a black jacket on top of it. It looks cool, Alex's heartbeat increase even without appraising the clothes he knew that the materials used to make these clothes were not from weak monsters.
〖Waouh! You got something nice. With this, you won't be afraid to take hit from monsters any longer.〗Silveria praised and like always ruin things with her mouth shortly after.
'Shut up I'm not a Masochist to let myself get hit because I have some nice gear.'
〖Come Master don't be a jerk. Please at least once, please do it for this lovely lady.〗
'Screw you. Get lost.' Alex roared in his mind. Silveria pouted but was happy to have teased her Master.
Leena who was watching Alex's expression when he observed the clothes couldn't help but wonder what going inside his mind at the moment for his face to twitch like that.
''I won't tell you from which monster these materials are made from but at least they can survive a hit from an A-Rank monster,'' Leena explained.
Alex's eyes shined at this mention, one must note that A-Rank monsters are already considered to be High ranked monster.
Monsters Rank is like Adventurers expect there is no SSS Rank monster, at least none identified until now. Then starting from A-Rank up to SS, monsters are considered high-rank monsters, even some B Rank monsters are considered high-rank monsters. Thus just imagine clothes that could survive a hit from A-Rank monsters, it's a pretty good thing, one doesn't come across something like this often, only some Big families or royalty own this kind of thing and just now Leena just gifted him one, no wonder Alex would be happy.
''Thank you, I'll use it wisely,'' Alex said, already thinking about a way to do a crazy level up.
''You welcome. Time to move towards the other gifts. I'm sure you will like them.''
Leena announced while thinking about something that happened a few days ago.
