Plundering in the Apocalypse

Chapter 58 What's Going On?!!



A few moments later the pain subsided. Shin started remembering what had happened to him.

\'Now I remember, I was inside my room. Before sleeping I thought of learning the new skill.\'

\'But how can just learning a skill can lead to this.\'

Suddenly Shin remembered the pain he felt while learning the skill and how he went unconscious because of it. He shuddered.

\'How can learning a skill be so painful? I didn\'t think a D rank skill would have troubled me that much.\'

Shin\'s eyes were then directed toward Alice. The mature-looking one.

\'Why is Alice like that? Even her dress and hairstyle are different. She looks older than her current self.\'

\'I would have never expected her to look this beautiful.\'

\'Even so, what is going on here?\'

Alice who came out of the portal started moving toward Shin\'s body. Which has been declared dead by the doctors.

She had a loving gaze on him as she approached him.

\'What\'s going in here? Why is Alice looking at me( My body) like that?\'

Shin thought as his consciousness was looking at this event occurring in front of him. In a third person.

Alice wasn\'t able to see or hear Shin\'s consciousness around her.

Shin heard Alice say something. But it was a different language which he didn\'t understand for some reason. It was not a language he ever heard.

\'What is she saying?\'

Then she suddenly lowered her head and kissed him on the lips.

\'Oh Damn!? I am getting kissed. Holy shit. It\'s my first kiss and that\'s also when I\'m unconscious.\'

\'But why would Alice do that? Also, this Alice is a lot different from the one I know. Something is not right.\' Shin thought trying to understand the situation.

But his lips were curled upwards as he was smiling non-stop. He was somewhat happy. He didn\'t hate Alice and she was also a very nice girl. So being kissed by her made him happy.

After that Alive moved her head back and continued talking in that weird language for some time. Although Shin didn\'t understand her words. He was able to understand her emotions.

She was sad. She was crying looking at Shin\'s body. Her seemingly endless tears made Shin feel guilty.

\'This feeling. Why do I feel sad looking at her like that? Is she that important to me?\'

She continued crying. It made Shin emotional.

After some time she stopped crying and looked at him with a resolute expression.

She took out a dagger in her hand.

\'Damn!? That dagger appeared out of nowhere.\'

The dagger had a shiny blue surface. It looked marvelous. It was like some kind of treasure. It had some sliver linings running through its surface to the edge of that sharp dagger.

It had some profound aura around it as it started glowing after some time. Shin couldn\'t help but gasp at this marvelous sight.

The dagger continued glowing until it tired dark blue and then purple. Suddenly Dark Purple. The silver linings turned shiny golden.

\'Just what is this?\'

Shin was flabbergasted. But Alice\'s next action made him even more shocked. She took it and cut her palm with that dagger. But that wasn\'t the end of it.

White golden blood started coming out of her palm. Shin didn\'t understand anything now. He was just looking at the cut from where golden blood came out instead of red. This was beyond understanding.

Until now Shin didn\'t understand a single word Alice was saying. But the next words sounded to him very clearly.

"This time I\'ll save you. We will meet again. I am sure of it. My love ####." Alice said those words with a smile on her face as the golden blood continued dripping.

Suddenly Shin\'s body started glowing and Alice got sucked into the golden portal she came from.

Shin\'s consciousness who was looking at this magical scene also felt something pulling him away.

He felt a huge pressure on himself. The next moment he opened his eyes. He was in front of a battlefield. A bloody red battlefield. There were only dead bodies till the eyes could see.

This place didn\'t look like earth. This place had two moons. There were tons of monsters. But also many different humanoid creatures. Many looked like humans with little differences in ears and height.

\'Are those elves?\'

But the creatures which stood out the most were terrifying.

It had a red upper body with 2 horns growing on its forehead. Bat-like wings. Sharp claws and a long pointy blue tail.

This battlefield looked like a bloodbath and Shin was the only person who was able to see this terrifying scene. Where dead bodies were the only thing he could see for acres.

His eyes then fell towards the sun.

\'Why is there a sun in this nighttime?\' Shin frowned then he looked again to confirm did he see right.

Only after some time did he understand. It wasn\'t the sun. It was a massive large-scale attack. Yes with a skill. He saw a handsome man with pointy ears conjuring a massive concentrated fireball which he mistook for the sun.

\'What power.\' Shin awed this scene. But as soon as that man launched this attack. Shin felt himself getting sucked again.

\'Ughh, why is this happening to me?\'

This time he didn\'t resist it and let it happen. When he opened his eyes. It was in front of a large black castle. It looked like from one of those horror movies.

Next moment he was surrounded by black figures who looked like the ones Alice summoned. But Shin still hadn\'t seen her use her skill to summon soul servants so he had no idea.

He was surprised when those figures surrounded him.

\'Umm, now what? Just what is going on with me?\'

Those figures started attacking him. Shin was surprised that these things were able to see him. But he didn\'t have much time to think. He had to react.

Shin started punching them. It didn\'t have any effect.

\'Why is this not working?\'

None of his punches were effective against them.

Wait, do my skills work here?

He tried appraisal but it didn\'t work.

The next moment another figure jumped at him. Shin waved his head in instinct and activated gravity manipulation.

The figure floated in the air before it could reach him.

Shin was also shocked. But he couldn\'t think much because he had to act now. He continued using that skill.

Unfortunately, he was not even close to defeating them. He was surrounded and the next moment he felt like dying.

He opened his eyes again and this time he was in a monster\'s lair. That place with inside a cave and filled with spider monsters. Those were similar to Tarantula and also some other species but red in color and had claws on them.

Before he could react he started fighting him. This time Gravity manipulation won\'t be enough.

He saw many Mana webs flying at him without any escape. He was troubled. He tried using Mana web and it worked. He used to shoot the air to propel himself. He then used gravity manipulation to make it easier.

In that difficult situation, he was able to do it instinctively. But it was a difficult move without proper control.

After the continuous fights. He was able to use that skill proficiently. He could lengthen or shorten them as he wished. He could make it soft as cotton, Or hard as steel. With enough practice, he was able to properly his body with that mana web as he decreased his weight with gravity manipulation.

After some time Shin felt another massive pull. That pressure was too much on him.

His eyes were still closed. He tried to move his body but, It was a little difficult to move around this time.

Once he opened his eyes slowly. He felt sunlight entering his eyes. It was already morning.

He tried to get up and noticed he was covered in webs.

\'What is this? Some Tarantula attacked me in sleep or something.\'

He frowned.

"Shin?"

He heard a sweet voice calling him. Shin turned his head to look at Alice who was sitting nearby and looking at him, she rubbed her eyes twice as she couldn\'t believe herself.

"Alice?" Shin called her name reacting to her voice.

Once she confirmed she wasn\'t seeing anything wrong. A smile blossomed on her face which looked tired for some reason.

"SHINNN." She called his name loudly and jumped at him as she hugged him. Shin got surprised but accepted her hug without a problem.

"What did you do? I was so worried about you. Mom and Dad couldn\'t even sleep because of how worried they were." She kept on crying for a few minutes.

"Please don\'t do something like that again. Promise me you won\'t ever leave me like that." Alice asked as she broke the hug but still held onto his back and looked into his eyes.

Shin could feel Alice was seriously worried about him. He made them worry and he was at fault. He was also a little happy seeing that Alice cared about him so much. He was happy to have been blessed by such good parents.

Seeing Shin not saying anything. Alice thought Shin don\'t want to promise her. Tears started forming in her eyes.

Seeing her probably misunderstanding something Shin hurriedly said.

"Okay, I promise. So please calm down."

Hearing his words Alice smiled in satisfaction.

After calming down Alice helped him remove those webs from his body.

"By the way how long was I out for?" Shin asked curiously.

Alice looked at his eyes while peeling the webs and said.

"3 days."
