Plundering in the Apocalypse

Shin and the others were speechless upon hearing Eddie\'s statement. \'This guy really hates his principal.\'

But as they continue chatting. Shin made an offer that surprised Eddie.

"Eddie, how about joining our guild? We can provide you and your mother with secured and well-furnished accommodation. You can even get a good salary."

Hearing this offer, Eddie was stunned. But he immediately came out of his stupor.

"Do you really want me to join your guild? You should know I don\'t have good combat abilities."

He neither agreed nor declined Shin\'s offer. Because he couldn\'t believe it. With his ability, he was afraid that he can\'t even solve a goblin. So when his idol asked him to join their guild. He felt a little surreal.

Shin noticed the self-deprecating look on Eddie\'s face.

"You won\'t be able to continue school in the short time, anyway. So why not find a secure place for both yourself and your Mom? As for your ability, I am sure it will be very useful so, no need to worry."

Originally Shin had different plans for Eddie but after meeting him and seeing his admiration for himself. Shin couldn\'t bear to harm this kid. So he decided to use a simple method.

With Shin\'s words, Eddie felt as his all his worries were unnecessary. Shin had also used Charming Eyes while talking with Eddie. So Eddie easily believed Shin and was moved by his words.

The longer they maintained eye contact, Eddie\'s trust in Shin kept on increasing. So he was also easily persuaded, and he didn\'t doubt anything Shin said.

"Okay, I\'ll join your guild," Eddie said after making his decision. He had a feeling that he won\'t regret this decision. Something inside him was telling him to trust Shin. It was obviously the effect of Charming Eyes.

After Eddie explained his ability and some other uses, too. He was escorted out by Alice\'s Soul Servants. He was going to bring back his mom and their luggage.

Shin had asked him whether he should help talk with his mother. But Eddie was confident that he could talk this out with her.

When he heard this, Shin also didn\'t care anymore.

***

Aston City.

Inside a well-furnished living room. A black-haired beauty with amethyst-colored eyes and a cold temperament was lifelessly sitting on a sofa.

Without a slight movement, her obsidian silky hair was lying on his well-shaped chest.

Her eyes were dull, and there was only the thought of one person in her mind.

*Sigh*

\'What would the two of them would be doing?\' Her eyes were burning with jealousy and envy.

\'Damn you Alice.\' She cursed inside her mind and the thought of what the two of them would be doing on their trip caused a deep pain in her chest.

She wanted to cry with regret and envy. Why wasn\'t it her who was in Alice\'s place? She had known Shin for way longer than that immature little girl.

"I am back."

At this moment, a loud shout was heard. A man with red messy hair and full of sweat appeared inside the house.

Her eyes were lifeless and cold. Elena didn\'t even have the energy to greet her brother.

Simon didn\'t care about Elena not giving him a response. He was used to this behavior and also knew the cause behind it.

He knew what feelings Elena had for his best friend. But he was also helpless in this matter. So he could only hope for the best and watch from the sidelines.

But Elena\'s lifeless look was still unbearable to watch.I think you should take a look at

"Master Mastisk is too fierce. Although my ability has improved a lot under his guidance. But it\'s too difficult. At the end of the day, I feel like my hands will fall off."

Simon complained while looking at his sore hands. But Elena didn\'t give him any reaction. He wasn\'t disheartened and continue sharing his experience.

"You know, even Celeste is being trained under him. His skills are pretty awesome, if you ask me. I am sure he is going to make one hell of a base," Simon said in an excited tone, but then it turned into a pondering one as he murmured.

"But why do I feel something is wrong? Sometimes his thoughts and words are pretty different from normal people and he even refers to other people are silly humans and idiot humans. As if he is a different species."

When Simon said that, he let out a small chuckle.

"..."

But Elena wasn\'t intrigued in the slightest.

\'Damn Shin, I want to beat you to death.\'

Simon stopped his futile attempts to brighten Elena\'s mood and turned on the TV. But as soon as he did, he felt the wind blow beside him and a figure went past him.

*Woosh*

"Huh?"

Before he could react, he saw the lifeless Elena was already in front of the TV, looking full of energy.

"What happened?"

He also curiously looked at the news channel.

"Heroes? Polaris City? Demons?"

The whole person was confused. Such a big thing happened today, and he didn\'t even know?

Actually, he hadn\'t seen the news of last night\'s genocide either.

But when he saw the video being played on the screen, the whole person was left stunned.

\'Isn\'t that-\'

"SHIN!!"

Before Simon could complete his thought, he heard a cheerful scream.

He saw that his sister\'s lifeless eyes were brimming with energy. There was an excited smile on her face and small dimples on her cute cherry cheeks.

Although Simon felt happy that his sister was cheerful again but thinking of the reason behind it, he wanted to punch his best friend.

Elena didn\'t care about Simon\'s thoughts. Her eyes were glued on the screen and Shin\'s handsome figure, fighting the demons, made her heart beat faster.

In the last two days. Elena\'s cold persona was broken into a lifeless one. But now, looking at Shin\'s video, her expression couldn\'t help but brighten. She felt alive at this moment.

But as the picture changed, and Alice appeared on the screen. Her body stiffened a bit and an uncomfortable expression appeared on her face.

Then the picture changed again, and another beautiful silver-haired woman appeared on the screen beside Shin. Elena felt alarms ringing inside her mind. Her instincts were screaming at her. It was the same displeasure she felt when she met Alice for the first time.

Gritting her teeth, he questioned with an annoyed look.

"Now who is this bitch?"
