Plundering in the Apocalypse

Chapter 81 Doubts!?



"Hey, guys. Ohh. Are Shin and Simon not here?" Reina came outside the kitchen as she noticed Elena and Alice sitting opposite each other.

She noticed something was off. There was some kind of tension between them. She noticed Elena\'s glaring at Alice. While Alice also did the same.

\'Don\'t tell me. It\'s a love triangle. Elena likes Shin and is angry at the fact that Alice is his girlfriend. While Alice is angry at Elena.\'

\'Hehe, this is interesting. I never knew my son was this popular with ladies.\' Reina was proud of her son. But can\'t let this continue she had to make them calm down.

\'They didn\'t even notice that I\'m here.\' Reina shook her head. Soon she thought of an idea to test her theory.

"Guys do you want to see Shin\'s old photo Album?" As Reina\'s words sounded the tension inside the room vanished. Both of them looked at Reina with bright eyes.

Reina smiled seeing their reaction and said.

"Wait let me get them."

Alice and Elena came to an unspoken consensus that they will take this matter elsewhere. Now they will just take on Reina\'s generosity.

On this day Reina had saved the destruction of Lawrence street with just a photo album. But no one knew about this heroic deed of Reina Wolner.

***

Inside his room and Shin and Simon were talking about many things. Simon was the one who talked the most. He was recalling all his experiences and the monsters he fought. In simple words, He was bragging.

But Shin didn\'t mind it. As he got to know a lot about things which he didn\'t know before.

"So the people who think killing monsters can awaken you are wrong," Simon said.

This information was shocking to Shin. As per his title, Shin was the first person to awaken in his dimension. So he had thought he was the first one to kill the monster which he felt should not have been the case. But now he understood, that he was indeed not the first one to kill, he was just the first to awaken.

"If killing monsters don\'t awaken you what does?" Shin murmured this question.

"I don\'t know about that. But many people awakened after killing the monster so it is the general assumption."

"As I and Elena awakened after we killed the monster."

Shin nodded his head in understanding. He got to know that there were 4 dungeons in Aston city.

Simon and Elena had fought in a dungeon that was east of Aston City on the way to the Military vase.

After talking for a few minutes. Shin asked about the hottest topic for everyone Labrinth.

"So what\'s going on with the labyrinth? There are many details in the forums but I don\'t if it\'s true or not." Shin asked while thinking about the news he read online.

Simon nodded his head with a sigh.

"Everyone is going crazy about that. They are now able to fight up to the second floor but someone had managed to reach the 4th floor or as some people say."

"Really?" This took Shin by surprise. He didn\'t expect that. Cause the highest floor cleared, mentioned on the internet was 3rd, which was a post from another country. It was also a large raid team with more than 100 members.

So entering the fourth floor here was surprising. Cause be never heard of a raid party being formed here.

"This guy is going solo," Simon said seeing Shin pondering.

"Wow really?" Shin said as he didn\'t expect that. This guy must be insanely strong.

"I don\'t know much about him but do you plan to plan to enter the labyrinth too?" Simon asked Shin as he had a feeling that was the case.

Shin nodded his head in agreement.

"Yes, I plan to soon."

Shin wanted to go check the Labrinth but decided against it. He first wanted to know a little about it. From the people who entered the first and second floor. He got to know a lot of things about it.

Although he knew he may face unknown danger the higher level he goes. He had to take that risk. He needs to get stronger fast. Luckily floors 1 and 2 will help him with that.

His level was very behind others if he want to catch up he needs to kill more monsters. Now that he used all his Bonus stats it will surely be hard to level up.

But he had to do that. He can\'t stay like this any longer. He had a feeling something much more terrifying may happen than the appearance of a labyrinth. In the last two days, he wasn\'t idle. He worked hard on his skills and abilities. Now he was also ready and got familiar with all his abilities and combinations of them that he thought of.

"I\'ll go with you." Simon\'s words sounded breaking Shin out of his reverie.

"Eh why?" Shin asked. She thought taking this guy with him won\'t benefit him at all.

Seeing Shin\'s questioning looks Simon coughed.

,m "Of course because you are low level," Simon said.

"But-"

"What level are you?" Simon cut Shin off with his question. Shin didn\'t like that but replied nonetheless. He had decided to change, he won\'t cuss him for these small things. He is not that petty.

"Level 15"

Simon snorted. A guy level 15 was going to challenge the dungeon and didn\'t want his help. He shook his head and looked at Shin with pitying eyes.

Shin didn\'t like that. He was barely resisting his urge to punch this guy. But he controlled himself thinking he may end up killing his best friend by mistake.

"Listen although I\'m level 15." Shin wanted to explain that even with that level he was way powerful. But Simon didn\'t let him.

"I don\'t want any excuses. I am going and that\'s it. Even Elena will come with us. She is very strong." Simon said resolutely. As this was his final decision. Shin can\'t persuade him out of this.

Shin sighed. Why did he have to tell this guy about the Labrinth?

Maybe Alice and Elena can get close this way.

Shin and Simon went downstairs. They found Alice and Elena looking at a photo album and talking.

"I can\'t believe it. Is that Shin?" Alice asked as looked at Shin\'s image in which he had a very thin body.

"That picture is from last year," Reina said while looking at the picture.

Alice was shocked.

"Shin changed so much in just a year." She said in amazement.

Reina who heard Alice\'s words laughed. Elena\'s expression was neutral. But inwardly she was also laughing.

"Haha, What year? In just a few days. If you had seen him on the morning of the day you came here. Fufu~ You would have seen Shin just like this." Reina said while laughing.

But suddenly she stopped laughing as she thought of something she didn\'t notice.

\'Why was Alice so surprised looking at Shin\'s image? Aren\'t they boyfriend and girlfriend? She should have seen him before right?\'

Reina didn\'t understand what was happening. \'I\'ll ask Shin about this later.\'

They all had a meal.

"Shin, you want to go tomorrow right?" Simon asked.

Shin smiled wryly. He nodded his head. Well if they will be going together maybe he can help them level up.

Simon smiled as they took their leave. Elena returned to being cold.

Shin went inside his house only to see a sulking Alice sitting on the couch.

"What happened?" Shin asked.

Seeing Shin arrive Alice changed her expression and calmed down. She was thinking just when how everything was going well she had to get a love rival. What bad luck.

"Nothing, I was just thinking something."

Seeing her like that Shin had an idea why she was being like that.

\'Alice and Elena must have become good friends. She must have wanted to talk more.\' Shin nodded his head in understanding. He just went toward her and patted her head.

Alice was surprised by Shin\'s sudden action. But, She enjoyed the moment. She also forgot about Elena for a moment.

\'Hehehe, what love rival. She doesn\'t even come close to what benefits I have.\'

Reina who saw this scene was smiling. She had thoughts of many ways to tease Alice. All the questions she had in her mind about their relationship disappeared.

She didn\'t care about any of that anymore. She just wanted both of them to be happy.

Shin stooped head patting her which saddened her.

"We are going to the Labrinth tomorrow Alice," Shin told her as she was asking about that almost every day. Alice just took this as a chance for another date just like that dungeon.

Although there will be monsters. She didn\'t care about that.

"Okay, I\'ll prepare for that," Alice said with a delighted expression.

Shin nodded his head in agreement as he was about to go upstairs to his room. He stopped and said.

"Oh right. Simon and Elena will be joining us."
