Seeing Ren alive, Shin heaved a sigh. 'Thank God, Alice didn't kill him.'
Shin didn't waste any more time and killed him. After all his purpose was to plunder his ability and his energy stat.
[You have killed an awakened.]
[You have gained experience.]
[Plunder activated]
[You have plundered a new ability Demonic Fog (A).]
[You have plundered a new stat 'Demonic Energy'.]
'That's it. This will be very useful later on.' Shin had a content smile on his face.
Alice beside him was also happy. Not because she gained 200000 Chaotic energy. Just because Shin was happy. It made her even happier.
She snuggled up into his arms and took a sniff.
'Hehe~'
...
"Shin, I did everything you told me to. I have collected everything from the storage and saved the hostages." Alice exclaimed in joy. But the next moment she turned sullen.
"But... I haven't rescued all the girls yet."
Shin smiled and rubbed her head gently with affection.
"You did a great job. I should reward you."
Hearing Shin's remarks Alice was beaming with joy.
"Hehehe~" She giggled in anticipation.
"Let's save the hostage girls who are still left here and get out," Shin said while activating his magic eyes.
It took a little time to find them. When Shin and Alice saw their condition their face darken.
Those girls were naked and absurd very badly. There were bruises all over their bodies. Some were even bleeding.
Shin asked Alice to help.
"Alice."
"Leave it to me."
He nodded and left. Shin was extremely angry now. But he had already killed them there was nothing he could do now.
Sometime later Alice appeared with 4 girls behind her. It seems she had healed their wounds and provided some plain clothes to them.
"Let's leave this place."
Following Shin and Alice, those girls came out of the school premises. The place they thought was a prison where they would spend the rest of their lives being rap*d by those beasts and die a horrible death. They had already a coveted their faith. Waiting every day for their death.
But today a miracle occurred. They have escaped that hell. All those beasts are dead. Everything happened in a matter of 2 hours. They are alive. This wasn't a dream. It was reality.
Thinking of this all those girls cried for several minutes. They expressed their gratitude to their saviors.
Jenny, James, Celeste, Alice, and Shin.
But the one they looked up to most was Alice. She was their goddess. A guardian angel.
Well, how their fates will be. It's still unknown.

"Thank you for saving us."
They all expressed in unison.
Shin felt a little embarrassed as he scratched his head.
"Don't worry about it." He waved his hands and continued. He took out his phone to check the time.
"It's already, 23:40," Shin exclaimed. There were several missed calls too. Most of them were from Reina and Alfred. The other was Elena.
He put his phone back in his pocket while speaking.
"I'll arrange rooms for you all. Take a good night's sleep. We can discuss other things tomorrow."
They nodded their head. After all, they also wanted to get some good sleep.
Shin took them to a 2-star hotel. Then immediately paid for their stay for the night and booked 14 rooms. 12 rooms, each can accommodate 4 people. 2 double bedrooms. When everyone saw the money Shin spent in a flash a look of amazement flashed in their eyes.
"T-This is too much. We can get some cheap room." The girl who said this nervously was Shu Ming.
"Don't worry about it. You girls go and rest." Shin said as he waved his hands.
"But." She was not convinced.
"Just go, it's very late. I also want to rest." This time Alice spoke up. She naturally wants to hurry up to the room with Shin. These girls are wasting their time.
Shin glanced at her in amusement and decide to tease her later.
After Alice spoke up they just nodded their head obediently.
All the 42 girls took the keys to those 12 rooms and went inside.
"I'll stay with them." After stating that Celeste was about to go after them but she stopped midway and returned.
She gave a 90° bow and exclaimed. "Thank you so much, guys." As she said those words tears streamed down her eyes.
A lot has changed for her in the last few hours. She was chased by those criminals. She thought that was her end. But, somehow she was saved. Not only that, but just after being saved she had a nice dinner and impulsively joined a guild.
But now she feels this wastage best decision of her life. They saved her, solved her problems, and are kind enough to rescue these girls. Most importantly they are strong. They eradicated a whole organization of more than 300 members. If she were to follow such people, she believed she won't regret it.
"I look forward to working with you guys." She explained loudly.
She immediately strode to those girls' rooms. She was very embarrassed thinking about how she was shouting in the lobby.
After she left only the 4 were left. James and Jenny turned their gaze at Shin.
"Shin, did you find him?" Shin also understood what James meant and showed a photo on his phone.
It was the pic of Ren's corpse. At first, James and Jenny were surprised by how bad his condition was. But they easily recognise and confirm it was the same basta*d.
His corpse made James' blood boil in excitement.
"Thanks, Shin. I only regret not killing him with my own hands." James' words were very cold. His eyes shone a radiant glint. He had a bug grin plastered on his face.
"Let's go now. They should also rest." Jenny pulled James' hand and went to their room.
They had no hesitation in Shin using money on them because. They had already signed a contract, they are the employees. So it was normal for the boss to provide accommodation when asked then to work overtime.
Soon after Shin also took Alice to their room. Of course, the room he had booked for them was a little better than the others. A little more luxurious.
"Now it's time for my reward~," Alice said those words seductively as crossed her hands around Shin's neck.
As soon as those words can't out of her mouth. Shin remembered the condition for loaning Soul Space.
(Alice - "Oh, nothing much. You just have to do a few simple things... Kiss me 100 times in a day, hug me for 3 hours, and act however I wish you to, for 2 hours. That's it.")
He sighed. The deal has already been made. He has to complete it.
"Fine, I'll do it."
"Yay~" Alice exclaimed in joy and closed her mouth to give a kiss. But was stooped by Shin's palm.
"Wuat re ou doen?" Alice's mouth was closed by Shin's palm so she said childishly.
Hearing her act childish Shin laughed.
"Just a second. Lemme give a call to Mom."
She nodded and waited obediently while Shin was on the call explaining their situation.
For some reason, he could feel the eyes of a predator hungry for him behind his back. He shuddered and turned back. But he could only see a cute Alice waiting for him with a pout on her face.
'What was that?' Shin shook his head and ended the call.
As soon as the call ended. Alice jumped at Shin impatiently and started kissing him.
'Heh, this girl. So my senses weren't wrong.'
That night the whole room was filled with the soft voice of Alice. As they both worked hard until dawn.
The room was insulated so no one heard them.
***
//Next, morning
Shin and Alice woke up late. After getting ready they went to the lobby. Alice had kept several clothes for Shin and herself inside the Soul space.
In the lobby, everyone already had breakfast and was waiting for Shin and Alice.
The rooms Shin booked also provided them with meals. So last night many hungry girls had dinner late at night.
"Sir. Madam." As soon as they saw Shin and Alice enter the lobby they stood up and greeted respectfully. This scene was pretty bewildering.
Shin noticed the hotel staff were somewhat tense. He understood their worries.
"I would like to book the function hall," Shin said as he pointed to his card.
Hearing his words the hotel staff immediately made the arrangements.
//a Few minutes later
Everyone was in the hall waiting for Shin to speak up.
"Everyone, I'll help you contact your families if you want. If you want me to find them. Though it will take some time I will help. If you want to leave with some money that's fine too."
Soon after they helped several girls contact their families.
Many girls were able to contact their families and soon they will return to them. They were crying with joy. Soon they will be able to return.
Some of them wanted to leave with some money and promised to repay Shin one day.
She looked at their soulless expressions and couldn't help but sigh.
18 girls were left. Some of them couldn't contact their families, while others were alone. They lost everyone.
Meaning their family members had already died.
One of them was Shu Ming.
She cried. All the pain and suffering she endured, and now that she was free she lost everyone close to her.
Why?
Fate is so cruel.
'It hurts. Why am I even alive?'
???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????
Many of those girls had the same thoughts. While who couldn't contact their families were in even more despair. They were lost.
At that time Alice's words gave them light.
"Will you guys work for us?"
