"Faye is already.....dead."

[NEWS]
[Yesterday night, Faye Clayton, the Moon Guard Guild's vice-guild master, was discovered dead.]
[Faye Clayton, the vice guild master of the Moon Guard Guild, was 'killed' by 'Alvin Collins,' who had tried to force himself over the victim, Faye Clayton, who was killed upon resisting.]
[Sign of impending disaster! Undead was born out of Alvin Collins, who was attempting to force himself on Faye Clayton, who instead resisted and pushed him away, but the unfortunate events continued! Alvin Collins, who was being warded off, called forth the 'mana of the dead' and turned himself into an 'undead!']
(AN: the above two may sound different because the [NEWS] isn't from a single company.)
[Max, guild master of the 'Persona,' swears to destroy 'The Hunters Guild,' which was the cause of his companion's death.]
[Faye Clayton, the courageous woman who spoke the words of the goddess even in the face of death.]
[Prophecy delivered to the world is that of a 'Demon' other than the 'Demon King' bringing more destruction upon the world; it was a prophecy revealed to the world, by the 'Saintess,' Faye Clayton.]
*
A week later.
[NEWS]
[On the cue of the prophecy, the destruction that is told to befall the world has finally begun!]
[The entirety of the Sector One has turned into a Gate!]

[The causes of this abrupt change in Sector One are yet to be uncovered, but monsters are coming out of Sector One without pause, making Sectors One and Two extremely dangerous to mankind.]
[Heroes EXP ground!]
[Sector One which had morphed into a only one of its kind Gate is being called 'The Heroes EXP ground' as countless monsters of all grades are popping out!]
[Sector One is being graded as a 'growth type gate' as the strength of the mana oozing out of the gate is increasing continuously! Monsters' 'stats' and 'levels' inside of Sector One have been said to have grown incredibly stronger!]
[Sector One is being graded as the first 'rank-SSS' gate; the gate's and monsters' levels continue to increase the more a hero explores it!]

In Sector Five.
In a 30 square metres apartment.
A black-haired beautiful woman, who wore a comfortable set of clothes containing a grey top, baggy white trousers, home slippers, and a blue and pink checked apron upon them, was cooking in the middle of preparing a meal for two.
CLUNK (5x)
She plated them and took one for herself before walking back to the living room, towards the couch in front of the TV and sat in a uncomfortably comfortable manner, and turned on the TV, which was just a 10 inches wide rectangular box that displayed holograms and worked similar to the smartwatch which people commonly wore.
"Haa...." Katline sighed and girted her teeth in irritation.
'Sh*t! I can't believe that all the fame and reputation of our guild is dwindling because of one freaking goddamn hero!' She cursed inwardly as she remembered the face of 'Alvin Collins,' who was the squad captain of the guild her father managed.
'We should have simply fired people like that! I can't believe Papa ignored me when I warned him about that Alvin guy. Disgusting people like them are better off killed.' Katline thought as she remembered the news about the disgusting acts, they mentioned about Alvin Collins in the news.
'The guild master of the Persona guild is not in the wrong; I, too, would have held a grudge against someone who completely ignored reports about a sh*t ton of atrocities committed by a person they are affiliated with and then refuses to apologise to me after a sh*t ton of damage is done to me because of their ignorance.' Katline clenched her fists in rage, thinking she couldn't help them despite the fact that it was related to the guild her family had founded; while she wouldn't say their guild was corrupt-free, she was certainly proud of the fact that they were the least corrupted guild to ever exist.
She then glanced towards the kitchen, which was open to the living room, and frowned deeply, noticing another plate placed in the kitchen filled with the same food she was having.
'I can't believe I have to take care of another baggage.' Katline gritted her teeth, placed her plate on the couch, stood up, and walked towards the closed door of a room.
pαпdα Йᴏνê|,сòМ CLUNK
"Get the hell out of the room and eat your goddamn food; if not, get out of my house." Katline said while glaring at the long-red-haired guy sitting on the corner of the bed.
"...."
"Ha. I can't believe why the me from the past was so stupid enough to fall in love with the likes of you." Katline scoffed at Vinny's pathetic state; he had dark circles, slouched shoulders, a glum expression, and unkempt long red hair.
"...."
Vinny came to Katline's house to check up on her wellbeing as soon as he cleared up the misunderstandings about him being a spy of the graveyard, but that news about him not being one was buried among other more important things, so other people still looked at him with weird expressions and avoided him like a disgusting pest, though he couldn't care less about what the other people thought of him, the lifeless bodies of all the important people from his past life, including his friends who had died recently started to appear in his mind constantly, which had now termed 'nightmares' continued to haunt him, he wasn't able sleep properly through a single night after his system error was lifted.....and so on, Katline's mind was bombarded with all these, unwanted, information by Vinny. Though she felt bad for him, it was still too much, it was as if he was asking her to carry his sh*t ignoring hers.
(AN: News about Vinny's misunderstanding getting cleared is mentioned ch 182 Dungeon Battle.)
"Haa...." Katline sighed, controlling her irritation and backed off.
She couldn't help but find Vinny too clingy, though she accepted the fact that he and her were a 'thing' in his past life, but she was a different Katline altogether from Katline who loved him in his previous life. Katline of the present didn't love him; she found him 'interesting,' and that was it.
She now has a ton of sh*t, she herself has to take care of, and 'Vinny' wasn't one of them; she barely even knows him well enough to act like a couple and comfort him in his 'lowest' phase, which she couldn't give a sh*t about if she had to be honest. Yes, they have started dating, but so what? She doesn't know him; only him knowing her doesn't do sh*t in a relationship where it's about two different entities.
"I'll be leaving for the guild; please get out of my house by the time I return, so that I won't have to use force." Katline said while walking back towards the living room, but suddenly...
"Ack??!" Katline felt a sharp pain cruise from her wrist. She snapped her head towards her hand and noticed Vinny grabbing it.
"Hey! Let go. It hurts." Katline said while trying to free her hand from his grip, but to no avail.
"You.... can't ....do...that...." She then suddenly heard Vinny's mumbles and glared at him; he continued to repeat those words out like a chant, and then...
FUMP
"!!" Before Katline could even react, she was thrown on the bed inside the room, with Vinny climbing on top of her with his unfocused eyes.
"Ack!!"
