Chapter 73 Last Regret!!?

Name:Plundering in the Apocalypse Author:
Shin facepalmed. All this time he had been worried thinking about who the enemies might be so he was cautious against them and once he took action only to find out how stupid he was.

The enemy was just a horny dog who had his eyes on Alice.

"How stupid I was. If it's just that I have no reason to keep you guys alive." Shin said as a large amount of killing intent emerged from inside his body.

All those people in black clothes gulped in fear. The feeling was like they were in front of a predator. Feeling the bloodlust from Shin they all knew there was no escaping from this. It would be a brutal fight. Even if they could kill these two by working together many of them will die.

Steven's men shook their heads in denial. They don't want to die for such a stupid reason. Just because their boss was lustful after a woman. Many of them are gonna die today.

But they can't go against their boss's orders. What should they do? Breaking them. from the stalemate they heard their leader's voice.

"Everyone attack them." The leader of the team shouted. He was the man with a mask on.

Everyone soon decided to fight. They can't retreat even if they want to. If they gin ack their boss will kill them. It would a lot better to stay and fight. They also knew that they can't escape from Steven or Shin.

Hearing his orders the long-range awakeneds started activating their abilities as they chanted the names.

"Fire Ball."

"Pine Shot."

"Acid attack."

"Mana ball."

"Keen Arrow."

"Bullet bomb."

"Spinning shot."

Soon many projectiles of magic attacks and weapons started to be shot at Shin and Alice.

The attacks flew toward Shin at a high speed.

Shin raised his hand and muttered.

"Gravity control."

The people who saw their attacks approaching Shin and Alice were grinning ear to ear. But soon they had their eyes almost bulged out from shock. What happened next was unexpected.

Most of the attacks, that were not dense enough lost their pace and started floating under the reverse gravity pressure. They couldn't even reach him.

The ones who were about to reach themselves although with a little less intensity got bounced back or studded by webs.

The surprising thing was when the attacks connected the webs the sounds of metal clashing sounded.

'What are those webs?' They couldn't understand what was happening. Were those webs or metal weapons? Just how strong are those webs?

'

But after a moment of shock, another shock flagged across everyone's minds.

"Did he just use two abilities?" A man asked his doubts out loud.

This wasn't supposed to happen everyone should only have had one ability. So why does this man have two? Or was that a combined ability?

Combined abilities are those which are only one ability but with some proficiency. The same ability is branched out or practiced in a way that can be manipulated into the ability of another form. They may bring out effects of completely different abilities. But this all depends on the proficiency and creativity of the user.

But that was not all as they heard a cold feminine voice say something which made them shiver in fear.

"Arise."

As those words came out of her mouth it was like she was surrounded by an aura of death. Her beautiful purple blue hair and blue eyes had already turned to dark black and red hair with deep crimson red eyes. It was as if she was incarnate of death.

The energy swirling around her started taking shape and a bunch of black humanoid figures stood up as they appeared in front of everyone.

Steven's men almost pissed themselves.

Those were the most terrifying things they had seen in their lives. But they managed to control the urge to run.

They had to face it. If they wanted to survive. Shin smiled seeing Alice summon her servants.

'She is ready to fight them. It's good. She should also get adjusted to killing.'

He then again turned to the trembling men in front of him.

"Calm down everyone. Remember we had fought with many monsters and these things are one of those types." The leader shouted. Although his words sounded confident. His legs were shaking.

"Mages attack them. Van guards move out." He started giving commands. As everyone started to organize themselves. Their hearts calmed down as they steeled their resolve to fight.

'He is a good leader.' Shin thought as he observed the leader's action.

Shin soon noticed two approaching figures. 'So she is here huh? I have wasted a lot of time.'

Shin shook his head and took out 6 knives from his back.

"Alice let's finish it fast and go home."

As she heard Shin's voice she turned to him and smiled. Even in her dark form, she looked stunning. Maybe only in front of Shin. But regardless she was beautiful.

Shin smiled back and threw those knives as they started floating in the air. His gravity control was active all this time.

Shin waved his hands the magician's attacks which the gravity was holding started shooting back in their direction.

The mages who were ready to attack had pale faces when they saw the incoming attack. It was aimed at the vanguard.

They put up their guards and used their skills to barely avoid the attacks.

? "Move out." As Alice commanded her Corrupted soldiers started moving forward. They didn't have any weapons on them but they were ready for a fist fight with the vanguards for their queen.

Inaka and Sophia just arrived to see the epic fight in front of them. Where black figures are fighting with a bunch of weapons users. The mages are activating their magic.

'ɪꜰ ʏᴏᴜ ᴡᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴏ ʀᴇᴀᴅ ᴍᴏʀᴇ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs, ᴘʟᴇᴀsᴇ ᴠɪsɪᴛ Novel(B) in.ᴄᴏᴍ ᴛᴏ ᴇxᴘᴇʀɪᴇɴᴄᴇ ꜰᴀsᴛᴇʀ ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ sᴘᴇᴇᴅ.',

'Just what the hell is tapping?'

They didn't know what to do and think. They just stood there frozen watching the epic battle in front of them.

Soon the whole place turned chaotic. As the vanguard and Alice's servants clashed with each other. Mages shooted more attacks on Shin and Alice.

Shin once again stopped those attacks with his gravity control. This time the leftover projectiles were fended by Alice's scythe.

Shin was smiling. Seeing how perfect their combination is. Alice was just too perfect for him.

'Whenever I'm with her. I feel at ease. It's never uncomfortable. But why? We just barely know her. Maybe I am in-.' Shin shook his head.

'It's too early to conclude that. At least now it's not the right time. We are in between a fight.'

Alice's servants were not weren't able to hold the vanguard anymore. But they had achieved their task before getting destroyed. They had done what Alice wanted of them. They brought all the vanguard close in a circle.

Seeing that Alice smiled.

"Good job my servants," Alice said as one of the servants bowed to her before vanishing as if saying. 'Anything for the queen.'

Shin was shocked beyond words. 'Damn it was cool.'

Alice smiled and nodded her head in satisfaction. As she gazed at the vanguard again. This time the coldness in her eyes was more dangerous.

Alice raised her hand slightly and soon as a large mass of black purple energy started floating above her hand. It compressed itself until it turned to the size of a basketball.

This time she used a huge amount of chaotic energy after all.

Shin who saw Alice's action started sweating. His gut feeling was telling him to stop Alice. He knew what she was doing but he didn't do anything to stop her. Cause he thought.

'Wait I can just use gravity control to control the pressure around that bomb. Yeah, it won't destroy the forest and become more destructive for them.'

One of the men Ren who was fighting Alice's last remaining servant frowned as he thought something bad is going to happen.

Another man behind him shouted.

"Look what is that?" The man was sweating in fear as his finger was pointed in a certain direction.

They all saw the mass of energy in Alice's hands.

'So that's where the uneasy feeling was coming from.' Ren thought. He then realized something as he turned his head sideways to only see that all the people of the vanguard are very close now. The formation was broken.

He was sweating profusely. 'This isn't good.'

"Everyone run fast," Ren shouted but no one was fast enough as Alice threw that ball in their direction.

"Oh shit." He said as he knew that was it. This was the moment before the death. When you see your death coming towards you but you can't do anything but wait. That was what he was feeling.

All this regret and past mistakes flash across his mind in a second. 'Why did I choose a stupid boss to follow?'

That was the question that had come across the minds of all of them. As they all saw the energy mass near them.

*KABOOM*

They died with a single regret as their last thought. 'They wished they had a good boss.'
