Plundering in the Apocalypse

Outside the dungeon,

"Good work guys, have a good rest. I'll send the money to your accounts." Shin's voice sounded as he waved his hands.

"See you soon guild leader." Hearing Simon mentioning him as a guild leader. Shin felt a little odd. 'It doesn't feel bad though.'

Elena was a little reluctant to leave. She was going to ask Shin for a reward anyway. So her mood became a little better.

Alex, Marine, and Selene also went their way.

Jenny and James were about to go too. But Shin stopped them.

"Mr. James, Mrs. Jenny. I would like to have some of your time." He continued.

"We can talk over dinner." They couldn't understand the reason. But they felt it must be something important. So they agreed.

"Okay, but is this okay? We are very dirty." James mentioned. As he felt it was inappropriate to go to a restaurant in this state.

He was not wrong. They were covered in sweat and the smell of monster blood.

"Then, let's do it this way. Let's meet 2 hours later at this restaurant."

They decided on the time and place. Before they parted ways.

As usual, Shin didn't take a ride home. 'Flying is much better.' He had not used much of his mana today. So there was no problem with him using his abilities.

Alice also liked the feeling of being carried so she never complained.

"Shin, what is the serious talk though?" Although Alice just wanted to enjoy her time. For some reason, she couldn't. Since earlier, her mood was a little sour so she just couldn't focus.

"You remember the blond-haired guy Jenny mentioned when we met them." Shin's words made Alice emit some blood lust.

Of course, how could she forget? That guy wanted to assault Jenny. They may have died there. She hated the kind of filth who force themselves on women. She also has some people she wants to settle matters with. If only she could meet them again.

They were those men who wanted to force themselves on Alice. But were scared sh*tless by Alice. She always regretted that she couldn't kill them.

"Yes, I remember. What about them?" Alice asked suppressing her disgust. Shin seemed to have noticed her bloodlust but didn't say anything. Because he knew, although Alice is sweet and cheerful. She had suffered and experienced many things, which could have made any normal girl her age insane.

He can only support her and slowly heal her emotional wounds.

It's been some time since he noticed. Alice is emotionally unstable. It may have been due to the loss of her parents or loneliness. He wasn't certain. But one thing he was sure of. He will be by her side. So, she won't feel that despair again.

At that time he had no idea. It was their destiny to face harsh struggles and despair in the future.

"As per Leonard's memory, there was someone in the future who matched that description, and his power was very terrifying. I have to get an accurate description. If the person is the same we have to deal with it as soon as possible."

"Who is that person?"

"I don't know much, but he was the leader of a criminal organization in which Leonard worked for some time. Also, his powers-" As Shin was busy explaining he was interrupted by a large bang below them.

Shin stopped midair as he frowned seeing the scene below.

In a somewhat dark area. A woman was struggling to stand as she was covered in blood. Also, there were two people covered in black clothes from head to two. Holding daggers in their hand.

Shin used his magic eyes to do a scan and smirked. "Sure enough."

One of the black-clothed figures said with a sharp gaze.

"Stop struggling, there is no escape for you. Either you come with us or die right here."

They were ordered to bring that woman at any cost. And if they were no choice. They have to kill her so no one other can benefit.

The woman panicked as she tried to think of some way to escape. But there was not much time to think. The black figure was reaching his patience limit.

He decided to act on it. He will make her unconscious and kidnap her. But as soon as he tried to rush at her. The woman vanished from their sight.

"Wh-What?!!"

"Where did she go?!!"

"EVERYONE COME OUT!! RIGHT NOW!!"

The black figure lost his patience and shouted. It was a mistake as he alerted many people. But he couldn't care less. If he fails this task only hell awaits them.

"SEARCH EVERYWHERE!! SHE COULDN'T HAVE GOTTEN FAR!!" His voice sounded very impatient.

A dozen black-clothed people appeared and started following orders.

The person who was doing the talking seemed like the leader.

"Shit, where did she disappear to? If I can't find her. I'll be in deep shit." He was enraged.

Just 30 feet above their heads Shin was in midair while carrying Alice and the same woman was floating beside them unconscious.

***

When Shin saw many people hiding in the dark. He felt a headache coming.

"I don't know the exact situation. So it's better to avoid fighting for now." Shin uttered to which Alice gave a surprised look.

"You aren't going to help her?" Although she wanted Shin to not get close to another woman. The helpless look on that girl's face reminded her of her past self.

"Oh, I will save her though." Shin's flat tone made Alice annoyed. But she was in no position to rebuke him.

Shin immediately used Shadow Veil and Gravity control on that woman. Feeling herself being pulled by some force, the girl panicked. Shin was worried she might scream in surprise so he used Mind Control to make her unconscious.

The baffled attackers couldn't see the invisible woman. Their confused screams made Shin smirk.

He had used Magic eyes on them to get their information.

To his surprise, all of them had abilities related to the assassination. But why?

Their levels were all in the '40s. As he was too far away he couldn't get more information.

Should he get close to them to pry for their information? Why bother?

"Alice, leave a Mark on them." Shin hinted to her to use her Soul marker.

"Fine." She obliged with a somewhat annoyed face.

She had made this skill to use on Shin. So she could keep track- feel close to him. But this was a clear misuse of it.

Alice knew what Shin was about to ask. So without him saying anything. She summoned Mia.

"Let's stop by someplace. Doing this mid-air feels odd." Alice commented.

Shin agreed with her as he nodded.

"Okay then let's stop by a nearby hotel."

***

The receptionist gave an odd look. A man carrying an unconscious woman in his hands while another beautiful girl was helping him.

"Sir, how long will you stay and how many people?"

"3 people, only for a few hours."

"..."

The receptionist was silent for a moment but continued with her business smile.

"Okay, 1 man and 2 women. Room 609."

"Here sir, the key to your room. Please enjoy your stay."

As she saw them going upstairs she couldn't help but mutter.

"What kind of play are people doing these days?"

"It's very rare for me to see this kind of situation."

"Shh, let it be. It's not our position to meddle in." Other receptionist said.

"Yeah, but I can't help but be curious."

***

Inside the hotel room, Mia was healing the unconscious woman with her Advanced healing magic.

Before Shin had removed the blood and dirt covering her body. It didn't take much effort just the combination of his abilities. So it was easier for Mia to apply her skills.

Alice had just entered the bath. Seeing her angry expression, Shin felt he need to pamper her. So he followed her to the bathroom.

Alice was a little surprised, but she was still a little angry for some reason.

"What can I do for you? So you will forgive me." Shin asked for forgiveness regardless.

Alice pouted but she was less angry now. Shin held her hands and whispered in her left ear.

"Are you willing to forgive me now?"

He was somewhat in a seductive tone.

Alice's entire body shivered in excitement. "Maybe~"

Alice gave a playful look. She held him close to her and hugged him.

Soon after both of them enjoyed the bath while washing each other thoroughly.

***

Sometime later both of them came out of the bath. Alice's cheeks were flushed red. But she looks pretty refreshed. Mia, who was using her healing magic all this time. Gave Alice a stern look.

[At least, control yourself when I'm not inside your soul space.] Mia.

Alice got even more embarrassed. She had no words against her mother.

Mia gave an exaggerated sigh.

[Sigh, How could my daughter be so perverted?]
