Plundering in the Apocalypse

While eating his sandwich Shin couldn't help but think back on the conversation they just had a while ago.

'Genocide of Hyunjas.'

'Last night someone killed more than a thousand people and most of the important members of the Hyunja Clan. They were brutally murdered. The ones who survived are out of this city.'

'So this was the time when Hyunja Clan came to an end and the beginning of the rise of Green Serpents. Hmm, now that they are gone how will the future change?' Thinking of this, Shin couldn't help but be interested.

It's not that he pitied them. Hyunjas deserved it after all they had done. But- 'More than a thousand Awakeneds died. Who has such power in this city? I'm pretty sure there must be those Hunja clan's martial artists too. So whoever it is. They must be pretty strong.'

Even in Leonard's memory, Shin couldn't find any information regarding the perpetrator.

Shin turned on the phone and started searching for the news. As it was a hot topic, it wasn't difficult to find it.

'They were brutally murdered. Signs of resistance are very few. They did this without alerting anyone. Even the connection to any servers or network in that area. Everything was cut off at the time of the incident. All the records of the cameras were destroyed.' Reading the news, Shin couldn't help but be surprised at their capability.

'Whoever it is, their work efficiency is awesome.' He can't help but praise them.

Shin thought of something and continued looking at the photos of the incident. The more the watched the frown on his face deepen.

Alice on the other side was busy watching Shin's actions. On the surface, she looked calm but inwardly she was blushing seeing his thoughtful look. Calming her throbbing heart she asked. "Are you interested in this incident?"

"Not really," Shin shook his head. But used Mind Control to start a telepathic connection with her.

Sensing something Alice immediately became serious. If by any mistake Shin ends up hearing her thoughts she will be embarrassed to death.

Shin [I think I know who is behind this incident.]

Both of them acted as if they were concentrating on eating rather than talking.

Hearing Shin's words Alice's eyes immediately turned serious.

Alice [Who is it?]

Shin pointed to the photos on his phone and showed them to her.

Shin [See this, what do you see in this picture?]

Alice [A floor covered with blood and dead bodies.]

Shin [Yeah that's what I'm talking about. Blood, the whole floor is covered in blood, and for whom this type of battleground is perfect?]

Seeing that Alice was still confused. Shin decided to stop twisting his words and said.

[It's Aurora. Her ability is Blood Warlock. It's the perfect setting for her to showcase her abilities.] Although Shin didn't know the extent of her abilities. But it's given in the name Blood Warlock. She would at least be able to control blood, right?

Alice gave him a sharp look and complained [And how would I know what her ability is?]

Her words, Shin couldn't refute it. Right he didn't tell her. How would she know? So to hide his embarrassment he continued further.

[You remember the hijackers yesterday?]

Alice cutely tilted her head in confusion. It took a moment for her to react when she remembered.

[Ah, those guys. What about them?] From her face Shin could tell she was the least bit interested in them. For her, they didn't even matter.

'Excuse me, you were the one who killed them yesterday and you don't even remember?' Shin wanted to complain, but he controlled his urge to do so. He knew very well that their well-being didn't matter to her. If he didn't remind her she would have forgotten about it. No, she did forget. That is also in a day, maybe even earlier. Did she even bother to remember?

He sighed and continued.

[They were people of the Hyunja group, they were searching for someone. If my guess is right it was probably Emily. As she was also on our plane.]

Shin who connected the dots was waiting for her admiring or surprised look. Ready to show a smug face. But what he got in return was squinting eyes and a questioning look.

She was sitting in front of him and her whole demeanor changed. Like an interrogator sitting in front of a suspect. Seeing her expression Shin couldn't help but let out a cold sweat. 'Did I say something wrong? What's wrong with her?'

Although she is younger than Shin and acts like a spoiled kid. Shin knows very well she is not as simple as she looks. From her background to her powers. Many things are a mystery. As she is the only SSS rank person he had met. Her Queen transformation has power beyond their level. The adult Alice whom he met in the sanctuary in his dreams. Or the time when she revived him. He is still not sure about that.

They were many questions for which he wanted answers. This is also the reason he treats her matters very seriously. Another reason is probably that he loves her too much. So what could be the reason now?

Seeing the nervousness on Shin's face Alice's frown deepen.

[Why do you know she was on our plane? From what I remember we met at the airport for the first time.]

Shin was shocked and speechless. What? Did be hear it wrong? He sighed and facepalmed.

[I checked her information before because she saw you transform. I think I told you about that.]

[Is that the only reason?]

[Yes.]

Alice's vigilant expression immediately relaxed.

Shin sighed 'typical Alice'.

[So, what do you want to do?] She asked.

[About what?] Shin asked back in confusion.

[About those bitches- I mean vampires. Will we kill them?] Alice controlled her words and asked. She was excited at the thought of killing them.

[Why would we kill them?]

[Isn't that the reason why you are explaining everything? So that we can take revenge for those poor dead souls?]

[But they were criminals it's better that they died.]

[So we are not going to take revenge?]

[No.]

[Then why are we discussing this?] Alice asked with a confused look. They were discussing so secretly there must be some reason behind his actions.

[Cause it's interesting.]
