One month passed quickly, and because Alex could not use magic, he didn't attend the lessons given to Leonardo and others. Since that day the relationship between Leonardo and Maria and her two best friends remained tense, they only greet each other, nothing more. The seven learned a few new skills.

Today, Alex was outside in the forest surrounding the Temple of Gods.

He laid on the ground and looked up at the sky.

A few small clouds were drifting across the blue sky. And two pale moons hung among them. When Alex lowered his view with a sigh, an endless row of beautiful trees greet him. The forest looks beautiful and quiet, the only sound you could hear, was the sound of birds chirping.

''Ah!"

Alex let out a sigh again. In those one month, it's not like he didn't do anything, Alex tried to use magic, but in the end, it didn't work. Well, he was expecting something like this so he was not too surprised.

Next, Alex tried to use other weapons as experimentation. Considering that hid gift was unusable at the moment, basically useless. Alex decided to switch to another weapon.

Hence, Alex decided to experiment with other weapons, to see if he could find one that suits him. However, it still ended in failure. Every time he tried to use a weapon, be it was a bow, a sword, a spear, an axe, and even a dagger, Alex had a severe headache that forced him to drop the weapon if not my headache won't stop.

Alex came to the conclusion that he could not use any other weapons besides his gift, meaning apart from his two guns, he can't use any other weapons. There is something inside his body obstructing him by creating that severe headache, that forced him to forsake the thought of using any other Weapons than his two guns. Maybe it was the spirit of the two guns, Alex doesn't know if there is anything like that, but considering that this is a fantasy world of magic and sword, a gift can have spirit.

Later, Alex even consulted Priscilla about his problem in the hope that she could help him, yet she said that his case was unheard of, so she can't offer him any solution. Then, Alex decided to the Temple of Gods' library to read a lot of books to see if he could find a book on an Otherworlder or some native of this world, that had a similar case as him.

Unfortunately, his search ended fruitless.

His case seems unique, nothing seems to work. Alex doesn't know what to do. However, there was one thing he was sure about. He will become the strongest.

Alex decided to go back. He started walking back towards the temple, soon a beautiful white building appeared in front. Alex stopped walking because in front of the Temple were a lot of carriages with guards around them. There was one big carriage, in particular, it's White in color with a crest on it. The crest looks like a golden eagle with two heads and on top of the two heads is a golden crown. I don't know what this crown represents, but well I'm sure, it's an imperial crest.

Alex was sure of one thing, which was that one of the empires or kingdoms finally makes a move and their goal is obvious, it's to recruit Otherworlders. Well, Alex mean the seven of course. He was pretty sure nobody would want to recruit me. Hence, when he entered the temple, Alex was planning to go straight back to his room.

However, Fate can be a fucking asshole sometimes. Kevin spotted Alex immediately the other noticed him.

When Alex entered the big hall, he saw Maria and the others sitting around the big table. There was Priscilla there as well and a beautiful girl, she has light blue hair and blue eyes. There were two guards behind the girl back. Under Leonardo and his crew mocking eyes, Alex sat next to Maria. He greeted her and the other two.

Finally, Priscilla spoke introducing the girl.

''Welcome. This girl is the Second Princess of the Drexia Empire. Katherina Von Havens. Well, you may have noticed the similarity in our name. I'm the former First Princess of the Drexia Empire and because I was chosen to be the next priestess, I discarded the Von in my name, thus it became Priscilla Havens.''

Priscilla explained. Alex had already guessed their relationship based on their looks, He was talking about the eyes color and hair color.

Priscilla continued talking explaining why this Katherina was here.

''Katherina has come to invite you all to the Imperial capital, precisely the Magic Imperial School. She.''

She didn't even finish talking before being interrupted by Katherina, the latter haughtily said.

''No need to continue speaking any further. I'm here for other seven, not for this trash. I have no interest in him. So, better not waste my time.''

''Kathe, shut up will you?'' roared Priscilla.

''Why would I? I'm not wrong. So, better not meddle in my affair. I respect you but it doesn't mean I'll listen to you. You're not in the position to command me anymore.'' Katherina replied fiercely.

''You..'' Priscilla was mad, extremely angry.

Leonardo and the others were silent. Maria and her two friends frowned, they wanted to say something.

However, as for Alex the concerned party he suddenly burst into laughter.

''Hahahaha, my bad but hahaha''

''Trash, what's that funny? or have you become mad hearing that I'm not here for you?'' Katherina asked, her eyes were filled with contempt.

''Pft hahaha! I'm just laughing because of how Fate can be a bitch sometimes.'' Alex declared.

''What are you blabbering?" Katherina asked because she did not understand what Alex was saying.

Everybody looked at Alex waiting for his answer.

''Well, you see back in my homeworld. You can't even carry my shoes. Even that asshole blondie over there can attest it. I have money, lot of money and a lot of connections as well that you can't even dream about. However, because of some unforeseen accident here I am listening to a retard trash-talking in front of me, because she got a little status and power which she didn't even earn herself. It's why I was laughing earlier. If fate was not a bitch, you won't stay in front of me talking shit.''

Everybody was astonished by what Alex said, Alex added before departing.

''I don't care about you and your goal, even if the strongest Man was here and insulted me, I will still say the same thing. I'm not afraid of death, I'm just afraid of cowardly death. I'm not a coward, even though my gift is useless at least for now, I'll insult anybody that dare to look down on me. Do note, that even an ant deserve a respect. Do not look down on anyone because you don't know what the future holds.''

''One last thing, you called me trash. Well, I also have a few words for you.

Va te faire enculer pétasse!''

While saying that Alex lifted his middle finger towards Katherina before he leaving under their dumbfounded gazes.

[A/N: What Alex said means 'Go fuck yourself, bitch' in French.]
