Plundering in the Apocalypse

*Knock**Knock*

Hearing the knock on the door Aurora raised her head and replied softly.

"Come in."

Emily entered the room with a serious expression on her face.

"My lady, everything is ready. We are ready to set off at any time."

Aurora's gaze sharpened."Okay."

With that, both of them left the room and soon Niles appeared in front of them. He didn't say anything and quietly followed after Aurora. Emily also made a few calls at that time.

Soon after they arrived in a hall full of fierce men emitting extreme blood lust. Seeing their fierce look Aurora nodded in satisfaction. This is the small army she had worked hard to prepare for her revenge. Tonight shall be their test.

As soon as Aurora appeared all their fierce eyes dulled and became full of respect.

"Tonight shall be the end of Hyunja lineage. They are the ones who have been terrorizing civilians while collaborating with the gangsters in Polaris city. Rather they are the same. Human trafficking, drugs, coercion, terrorism, treason, arson, murder, rape, robbery, burglary, and kidnapping. All kinds of crimes that happened here are directly or indirectly related to Hyunjas. Here some of you are also victims of their heinous deeds"

"So what shall be done with these bastards."

Aurora shouted while emitting immense bloodlust. In front of them stood a small army of 50 men.

"Kill them." One of the men shouted while showing his canines. Soon the whole hall erupted in uproar.

"Yeah, kill them all."

"Kill"

"Kill"

"Kill"

Loud cheers were chanted following Aurora's battle spirit.

On the other side, Shin and Alice had already started their long-awaited proper date. Well, the so-called date was only possible due to Alice's persistence. Because of this reason, she was extremely excited.

"Shin, look at that. It's so cute~"

Alice said as she pointed at the mascot of a shop nearby.

Shin also followed after her gaze. It was some weird creature with elephant ears and a parrot face, while two horns stuck out of its head.

'That's cute?'

Shin was confused but he didn't dare question Alice's judgment. She was so happy and excited like a child that he didn't want to ruin her mood.

'Yeah, let's consider it cute. As long as Alice is happy.'

He smiled and replied to Alice who had her excited eyes wide open waiting for his answer.

"Yeah, it's very cute." Shin nodded his head with a wry smile.

Hearing his answer Alice was subtly surprised and then got even more excited.

"Really? You also like Mr. Parfantino?"

What the heck is Parfantino? Isn't this just a combination of parrot, elephant, and rhino? They just mixed these animals into a mascot.

-n0ve1、com "Yeah, is it popular?" Shin asked tentatively. 'There's no way people like this kind of thing right?'

Alice had a big smile on her face as she explained everything.

"Yeah, nowadays many girls and kids like it. It's also a popular character of a children's TV show."

Seeing that she was about to continue Shin decisively diverted her attention.

"Alice, do you want to eat something?"

Alice checked her watch and nodded.

"Yeah, let's have dinner first then." With those words, she led him to a restaurant nearby. Which was pre-planned in Alice's schedule.

The restaurant was dimly lit and had a calm atmosphere. The lighting in the restaurant was complementing the beautiful illuminance of the night market.

Shin was about to ask if a table was available when he suddenly heard Alice say.

"We have booked a VIP table here in the name of Alice Kayden."

The receptionist promptly replied.

"Yes, please follow me."

Shin had a confused expression on his face. 'Didn't they just agree to have dinner? Also, why is the timing for the booking so perfect?'

'We arrived exactly on time and when did she even book?'

Shin turned to Alice giving her a questioning look. She looked at him and giggled coquettishly.

"You want to know when did I book a Vip table and why is the timing so exact?"

Shin nodded his head.

Alice smiled even more, got close to him, and tiptoed on her shoes. Shin slightly leaned toward her to bring his ear close to her mouth.

He could feel her breath tickling his ear. "It's a surprise for my Darling. I love you~" she said while giving him a small kiss on his cheek.

Although Shin was happy this wasn't what he wanted. What about his question?

"It's a secret," Alice said and smiled mischievously.

Now that she said it Shin could only sigh and give up.

While having their meal they chatted and had a good time. Shin felt it was kinda nice. This was the moment when both of them enjoyed their time like a normal couple.

After dinner, they went on to play some games in the stalls. Then a walk under the illuminance of the night market and the moonlight. This moment was so wonderful that without them noticing they had already come a long way from the night market.

"I'm so happy Shin," Alice said affectionately while holding his arm.

"Me too."

After a little silence, Alice muttered.

"Just silently walking together arm in arm with each other. How nice if we could do this every day. If only we could spend our every day like this."

Shin was silent but from his expression, it was obvious he also wanted the same.

But both of them knew it was not possible in their current situation. The world is getting dangerous.

Shin quietly patted Alice's head affectionately and said.

"Don't worry, we will also live our life the way we want. For that, we need to get stronger. Strong enough that nothing can threaten us. Then we don't have to be afraid of anything." This was also Shin's way to motivate himself. Because he had seen the true terror. He still doesn't know if that was real or just a dream. But it doesn't stop him from becoming stronger.

Alice listened to Shin's words quietly. Seeing her silence Shin didn't know what she thinking but he didn't disturb her.

While walking they had already come to a viewpoint from where you can see the whole city. All this time Alice didn't say a word.

Shin followed where her eyes were looking and noticed the labyrinth of Polaris city. It was a tower-like structure on the outskirts of the city that could even be seen from this far away.

'They have yet to clear this dungeon. Should we try it out?'

As soon as that thought crossed his mind Shin shook his head. 'What am I thinking? I promised Alice to take a break from these things.'

He pursued his lips as a cold wind brushed past their faces. In silence, both of them continued looking at the labyrinth, a tower standing far away facing the entire Polaris city. Not knowing what was inside their minds.

Soon both Shin and Alice returned to the hotel and had a hot night together. It was only after midnight did they fell asleep together holding each other and feeling the direct warmth from each other's bodies.

Shin felt that Alice had something on her mind. But he didn't probe her and let her be, 'she will tell me when she is ready.' With that thought, he didn't bother her.

Unbeknownst to them in that peaceful-looking city, a big event was in progress. Which may probably change the entire power system of Polaris city in the future. But they have yet to know about this.
