Plundering in the Apocalypse

Seeing Alice's leaving figure Shin smiled and said.

"Let's get going then."

Soon everyone left to their assigned places. Shin will hunt alone. James and Jenny will hunt in duo. Alfred and Reina will keep an eye on them and keep the strong monsters at bay.

It was time to start hunting.

***

A figure could be seen rushing at a not-so-fast pace in a certain direction. It was Alice who was running in a completely different direction than the one she was allocated. She had a frown on her face.

'Ughh. I am so stupid. I just missed a golden opportunity. It was a perfect chance to spend time with Shin.'

She was very frustrated. But she soon calmed down thinking she had perfect people to let out her anger on.

"Let's see where are they. I don't know the range of Soul marker cause I never tried it but they should be nearby."

Alice closed her eyes trying to feel something.

After a few moments, She managed to pick up her Soul marker energy.

"Bingo. There they are." Her eyes gleamed in excitement.

'They should be around 400 meters from here. I better hurry up.'

Alice rushed toward the direction her prey was in.

'Ughh. My agility is too low. I can't understand how Shin is so strong and fast. I never asked for his level.'

Alice was pondering something but she stooped her thoughts midway when she came across the sight of what she was searching for.

A group of four individuals who looked like a rock band were killing some goblins. It was the Leander brothers.

She stooped a few meters away from them out of their sight as she heard them talking.

"Damn, that was terrifying." (Terry)

"What. They are just goblins. Are you afraid of goblins now?" (Jeremy)

"Not them. I was thinking about that monster in human disguise." Terry replied as he shivered in fear.

Everyone understood what Terry was talking about now. They all thought of Shin and their encounter with Shin's group.

"Stop shivering like a coward." Aron snapped at them and continued.

"There's no way he was that strong. I'm telling you. His ability could make his opponent fear or intimidation type. I bet he can't do anything in a fight."

Everyone thought for a moment and nodded. That might be right. He didn't look strong and there's no way someone can be that strong in just a day.

Tom gritted his teeth.

"So he just messed with us. Those girls were cute. We shouldn't have let them go."

Terry stopped shivering and got frustrated.

"If I come across them again. I'll beat the shit out of that bastard and fucking kill him. I'll fuck those girls in front of him as he begs for mercy."

Aron smiled creepily.

"They should not be far from here. Maybe we can still find them and get those girls. It's not like the police can do anything to us in such a situation."

Everyone agreed as they all wanted to have a taste of those girls.

"Hehehe. I'll get that purple hair cutie. She looked cute." (Tom)

"I want that other one. She was my type. She looked sexy." (Terry)

"What about you Jeremy?" Terry asked curiously.

"I'll have that Milf." Jeremy replied calmly.

"Are you talking about that Aunty? I never knew you were into those types." Tom said with confusion on his face.

"You wouldn't understand the fun with them," Jeremy replied calmly.

"That's your preference," Tom said.

"Don't worry we will have a lot of fun with them. Let's find them first. They might be at the amusement park." Aron took the lead. As he was their older brother of course he was like a leader.

They all were getting excited while thinking about what they will do with those girls once they caught them.

Unbeknownst to them a few meters away from them a figure silently listened to their conversation. Red eyes closed and open with killing intent emitting from them.

It was Alice. Before she was angry and wanted to punish them a little but now a little punishment is not enough she has to go all out.

They don't deserve her mercy. Because of their conversation, Alice was angry enough to let her dark side take over.

As the effects of her dark side activated she was thinking of many different ways to torture them.

Alice used her chaotic energy to make four thin threads. She then shot it towards the bunch of idiots laughing like lunatics.

As soon as those threads of energy touched them. A series of screams followed after that.

Their bodies felt numb as they were paralyzed.

With her chaotic energy, Alice managed to attack their souls and create an effect similar to paralysis. She succeeded cause their soul strength wasn't enough to put any resistance.

Soul strength. Just as the name suggests. It is a soul's strength that differs from person to person. There are ways to increase it but it's a topic for later.

Alice moved towards them. They were still conscious but foam came out of their mouths and veins popped up in their faces. Their faces were red as they had trouble breathing.

Their bodies went numb after the initial attack.

The numbness came with unbearable pain. They were barely awake but soon they saw two red eyes looking at them with disdain.

It was a beautiful girl which looked familiar but at the same time not. Her appearance was like the Incarnate of death. She was like a grim reaper who came to reap their souls.

Even with her beautiful look they were terrified. The terror they felt and the pain they were suffering made their mind clouded.

They weren't able to utter a single word. The paralysis made them unable to.

They soon fainted from terror and pain.

Alice on the other hand stood there while emitting a little killing intent.

Alice soon summoned her <Soul Grimoire> as it floated above her palm. The chaotic energy started swirling around her hand. It was time to finally use that skill.

Alice uttered a single word.

"ARISE."
