Death Guns In Another World

His claws were just inches away from her chest. No matter how hard Gregory exerted himself, his claws wouldn't pierce into Pandora's chest or move forward!

"What's going on?!"

Gregory shrieked in anger at Pandora.

"What did you do?!"

Pandora chortled and she gave Gregory a curt glance. Then, she turned his head the other way.

''What a pitiful man.''

The others silently nodded in their heads but were more interested in this magic Pandora used.

Maximus was that curious he couldn't stop himself from raising a question.

''Miss, what is that magic?''

''Word Magic.'' Pandora simply stated. The truth is this magic is an ancient elven spirit word magic, but she'd be revealing her identity if she were to say that.

''Word magic?"

Maximus and the other experts frowned.

Pandora sighed when she saw the confusion on their faces. She wasn't exactly sure how to explain the magic's concept so she continued.

"In simple terms, it's a magic that forces another to abide by the caster's command through magically-infused words. Well, it's magic as far as you guys are concerned."

"Word magic that can force others to do the caster's bidding?..."

Those who heard her words exchanged looks of shock.

They've never heard of magic that can use words to force others into action.

Was there magic like this in world?

Won't that make the one who masters it effectively invincible?

Most of them couldn't help but be tempted by the magic's effect.

If the Crystal clan's magicians learned this spell, then couldn't they become the strongest clan?

Pandora saw their elated looks and she threw cold water on them.

"This magic has its downsides too. For one, they can only affect people weaker than the caster. It can only slightly affect an enemy far stronger than the caster."

Maximus and the others gasped so Pandora took it as a sign that they heard her.

Even so, this magic can still be put to great use.

She implied that this magic can still affect a stronger enemy, even while its effects are severely limited in such a case.

To put this in context, an evenly-matched fight would hinge on who makes a mistake first, a tiny mistake can decide the winner and the loser. A magic that can affect an opponent through words, it can be used to lure the enemy into making a blunder.

So what if the enemy is far stronger, they would lose whether they used this word magic or not.

They are still tempted to get their hands on this magic. Of course, they are going to have to gauge their own abilities if they want to snatch it from this woman or they could simply negotiate.

"Arghhh! Release me!!!"

Gregory roared. Even while shooting off jets of dark beams, he simply couldn't break off his invisible bonds.

That's the gap of power between Saint and Demigod.

Pandora's spell completely subjugated Gregory, it's not something he can break through with brute force.

"Release me! Release me!!!"

The pitiful man yelled like a beast captured in an invisible cage. No matter how hard he struggled, he couldn't break free of his jail.

"Save your strength, you can never escape my Word Magic."

Pandora narrowed her eyes.

"Plus, you're not using your own power. It would do you well if you obediently gave up the black wisp of light within you."

"Black light?"

Maximus and the others gasped.

"Ahhhhhhhh!"

Gregory struggled even harder.

"As expected, you're after the source of my power because you're jealous of me. Let me tell it straight to your face, you're never getting it!"

Pandora was glad he turned him down.

Gregory's transformation was caused by the black light.

"If that's the case..."

Pandora slowly replied.

"You can die now."

Pandora's hand crackled with lightning, emitting bluish-white sparks as she slowly inched her palm toward Gregory's chest.

Maximus and the others weren't gonna sit still as she looked like she was going to execute Gregory.

"Wait!"

Pandora paused with a scowl. She had expected this to happen.

"What? You want to keep a monster around?"

Maximus smiled while he shook his head. He tried to see past the monster's terrible appearance and recall his younger brother's look.

"Miss please, can you let us handle him?"

Pandora frowned upon hearing Maximus's, please.

It was only natural the brother tried to defend his younger brother. She also couldn't be bothered with taking out the trash.

However, she was more concerned with the black light and its ability to massively power up a human while turning the human host into a monster.

Pandora doesn't think Gregory could handle something as aberrant as that.

It's something dangerous, extremely dangerous, she must get rid of this thing even if she were to sacrify an innocent in the process. Sometimes sacrifice is necessary.

Pandora's blood also continuously nudged her to not that black light go. She trusted his own guts.

When Pandora was about to reject Maximus, the latter brother Gregory suddenly wailed in anguish.

''Gah! Cough!''

A sharp pain struck his chest from deep within. One hand reached for the air while the other clasped his chest in agony. Gregory's mind raced, half panicked half determined. There must be an answer to this pain, there must be a way to make it stop. He paused for a moment and contemplated every answer to this pain, weighing each option and trying to find the best one.

He grunted, determined to block out the pain and ignore the voices begging them to stop.

Gregory could bear with the pain but he felt there was more and feared what would come next, hopefully, his fear wouldn't come true.

Unfortunately, fate is a bitch.

''Gargh! Nooo! Noooo!!!"

Gregory's worst fear came true as he felt something stirring within him. Then, his scales started disappearing as his mana raged out of control.

"What?!"

Gregory rapidly returned to his original look, his scales, multiple eyes, and tail were gone, leaving him in his original sickly state.

When Gregory was about to make full recovery, a jet of black light shot out from Gregory's body. Instead of running away, the black light shot into Pandora's body.

She concentrated as she turned her giant magic pool on the foreign power. She wanted to drive out the invading power before she turned into a monster like Gregory.

Then, her bloodline reacted violently like a lion who was challenged for its territory.

Her elven blood crashed against the black light within Pandora's body.

Hiss!

The black light wanted to take over the elven body, instead, it got pounded by the latter bloodline. Hissing like an alien bug, the black light quickly departed Pandora's body, revealing itself in the real world.

Pandora grabbed the black light before it can run away again.

Hiss

The black light struggled within Pandora's firm grasp.

"Oh, you, that was a close one..."

She grinned at the black light within her palm.

"I don't know what you are or where you came from, however..."

She squeezed hard.

Clang!

Pandora crushed the black light into bits.

Phew!

She sighed in relief and she chuckled. She looked around and her eyes gleamed, she started preparing a spell.

''Time to clean up before departing.'' She silently mumbled.

At the same time in another location. In a big underground cave, there was a beast.

Dark jade eyes sit wickedly within the creature's angular, scaled skull, which gives the creature a rather menacing-looking appearance.

Two small crystal growths sit atop its head, just above its thin, warped ears. A row of small tendrils runs down the sides of each of its jawlines.

Its nose is pointy and has two enormous, curved nostrils and there's a small crystal growth on its chin. A few large teeth poke out from the side of its mouth and reveal only a fraction of the terror hiding inside.

A strong neck runs down from its head and into a long body. The top is covered in radiant skin and a row of armor plating runs down its spine.

Its bottom is covered in massive scales and is colored much darker than the rest of its body. Six powerful limbs carry its body and allow the creature to stand sturdy and towering. Each limb has 3 digits, each of which ends in keen talons seemingly made of obsidian.

Giant wings grow to start from just above its shoulders and end just passed its shoulder blades. The wings are bat-like, with thick skin and eerie bone structures making up most of the wing and each bone structure ends in a curved, yet blunt tip.

Its elegant tail ends in a seemingly fluffy tip and is covered in the same radiant skin as its body.

It is a dragon however there wasn't one but four inside this basement.

''So, that thing failed huh?!''

A sudden voice rang out inside the basement and space twisted, someone appeared in a lab coat, a man around twenty, with golden hair and dark pupils.

''Someone broke my toy, hehehehe! I wonder who dare to do that.''
