Death Guns In Another World



Boom!

Another stalactite pillar collapsed, crushing three to four other pillars in bursts of dust. Looking at this scene, the dark elves were entirely speechless. Of course, they knew that the other pillars didn't belong to their family, but were owned by the Nilerea family instead. The family had intended to sit this one out and reap the spoils later.

Bet they didn't expect themselves to be implicated.

''What should we do?"

After a few moments, one of the dark elf mages asked helplessly. This was the first time she revealed fright and despair on her pretty face. Upon hearing her question, not only did the other dark elf not mock her timidity, which was uncharacteristic, but also displayed a face full of uncertainty.

"I think we should report the situation to Matriarch Nilerea right away…"

"…"

After hearing her answer, the other dark elves remained silent, exchanged looks with one another, and nodded. Shortly after, the dark elves vanished into the darkness.

Meanwhile, the wyvern's king that was set free after a long time continued his rampage. The reason it appeared here was to show its strength to further throw the enemy into chaos. This was Maria's decision and Luna approved it, it was why she sent the wyvern's king here to wreak havoc.

Boom!

As the wyvern's king swung its claws, the trembling stalactite pillars finally collapsed to the impact. In an instant, huge fragments fell from the peak and landed heavily on the ground. After the last stalactite pillar crumbled, the land finally restored its peace. At that moment, the towering wyvern's king lifted its head, scanned the surroundings, and shuddered. Shortly after, it shrunk swiftly as though it were under the influence of a shrinking spell. The tall monster twisted and contracted in shape and Saeko could hold. As the wyvern's king vanished, the air around it rapidly restored its usual state.

"Wow! So overpowered.''

Saeko was shivering recalling how the small thing inside her arms slaughtered people and destroyed things so easily, it was overpowered.

"It's finally over. Have you finished with your task?"

"Yes, Miss Saeko."

Upon hearing Saeko's question, Pandora emerged from the shadows silently and answered. 

Pandora lifted her head and scanned the ruins. She squinted and her scarlet eyes glinted with a trace of an ice-cold smile.

''I leave and let you finish your next job.'' Saeko declared before leaving with the small wyvern's king. 

Pandora stared at their departing backs before sighing. 

''Land of Death!" 

Putting up a cunning and sinister smile, she raised her arms. Along with this action, faint, red mist exuded from her body, rolling and expanding to the surroundings. In just a few moments, the red mist became denser and heavier, while mournful wails echoed within. Then, shriveled and ugly specters emerged from inside one after another. Looking at this scene, her smile turned elegant and mesmerizing. She seemed to have turned into someone entirely different upon activating this skill.

"Dark elves, it's time to experience the terror of this lady.''

While Pandora mumbled under her breath, innumerable corpses crawled out of the ruins. They widened their scarlet eyes and let out heart-wrenching screams.

The shadows of death spread in silence, shrouding the entire Gandor City.

But it was a pity that the dark elves who survived didn't notice them.

•••

''What did you just say? Say that again?"

Nilerea was wide-eyed. She stared at the three dark elf mages in disbelief. No matter what, she didn't expect this news at all. Not only did the family established by her once eldest daughter fail to resist the enemies' attacks, but they were also annihilated and their camp crumbled completely?! What kind of sick joke was that?!

Of course, Nilerea learned from her intelligence network that the enemies who entered the city were formidable. But what kind of threat could a group of less than ten members possibly pose to her? No matter how powerful they were, they shouldn't be able to defend against a sea of slaves and the assassinations of dark elves, wasn't it?

But now, it seemed like the enemies had indeed succeeded.

A powerful pet, a wyvern's king as a pet to boot.

Nilerea couldn't help but turn pale. But she was also glad that she was fortunate enough to not be involved as Wyvern's king was a terrifying existence. Even though most spell casters within dark elf families had entered the late Saint Realm, there were only a handful of spell casters who transcended to peak, one step into the Demigod realm possessed the strength and ability to defeat such beast Based on the current situation, only the matriarchs of the top families had acquired such power. But despite that, it was tough even for Nilerea herself to defeat this monster. Perhaps she might need to try her best to stand a chance, not to mention her daughter.

This spells trouble. A quite big one at that.

Nilerea abandoned the thought of her daughter's death, as well as the destruction of her family. Losing a daughter wasn't anything huge to her and she was also clearly aware of her daughter's wild intentions. Back then, Nilerea killed her mother and gained her current status and authority. In this case, according to the dark elves' traditions and moral values, it was only considered genuine 'filiality' that her daughter also came up with conspiracies to deal with her. The reasons why she dispatched her two daughters into battle were to diminish their strength and also stop them from growing too strong and threatening her. Nilerea had reached her goal now and achieved more than she expected. She didn't need to worry about her daughters slitting her throat from the back anymore.

But despite that, the price she paid was rather hefty.

Shortly after, she threw this matter to the back of her head. She wasn't having it any better either. Even though she had sent out two-thirds of her army to the battlefield, the report from the front baffled her. In less than 10 minutes, she was informed of the death of four mages through spiritual connections. The dark elf mages weren't just ordinary spell casters but were elite confidants who she groomed. Every one of them was in the peak Grandmaster realm. 

Nilerea had groomed a total of 12 mages in the Grandmaster Realmd. They were also the pillars of support for her family to stay relevant within the top families in Gandor City. And this time, for safety's sake and also to display the deterrence of her family, she sent out seven of them to lead the battle in the front. She thought that with so many guards and formidable mages, those measly surface humans should be taken care of effortlessly.

But to her bewilderment, four out of the seven mages died in the blink of an eye. Not only that but judging from the current situation using the spiritual connections, the four of them also died in less than a span of three minutes! In other words, they were slaughtered by the mysterious enemies before they even had the chance to retaliate!

Nilerea was trapped in a dilemma. Her feeling of gladness was long gone as it seemed like the enemies were far more powerful than her. Currently, she only had two choices. The first choice was to retreat and send out someone to make peace with the enemies immediately. Although this would hurt the reputation of her family, which was ranked fourth in Gandor City, it could ensure that her family avoided disaster, at the very least. As long as there was time, she could rise to the top again.

The second choice was to fight to her death with the enemies. It would be best if she succeeded. But if she failed, the consequences would be unthinkable.

The powerful and cunning matriarch who couldn't even blink an eye to sacrifice her daughter, and kill her mother was currently in great trouble as she gnashed her teeth tightly. Things have sincerely gotten worse. She gripped the seven-headed snake whip in her left hand while clutching the chair handle with her left hand. In an instant, the entire hall fell into a dead silence. No one spoke a word as they gazed at their matriarch meticulously. Everyone was aware that the family was in dire straits.

While the matriarch was lost in thoughts considering how to get out of her current predicament something unexpected happened. As the saying goes, disaster comes in pair. 

''Reporting, Matriarch!"

All of a sudden, a dark elf guard scrambled into the premises. His scream shattered the peace of the hall. Nilerea couldn't help but dwindle her thoughts and stare at the guard.

"We received news from the front—the 20th family alliance has been utterly defeated!"

Nilerea's heart sank into the ice-cold bottom. Her vision was enveloped in total darkness. But as the honorable dark elf matriarch, she returned to her senses immediately. She forced herself to not reveal any expression, stood up solemnly, and gazed at the guard.

"Tell me exactly what happened!" She demanded as her face was white, she was trembling at the moment unable to believe her eyes. This must be a nightmare she constantly mumbled under her breath.
