Plundering in the Apocalypse-Chapter 90 Alice’s Transformation!?

//The fifth floor of the dungeon.//

Shin and the team were welcomed by a beautiful scene arriving at the fifth floor. A large mass of water body at the front and cool white sand below them. It was an ocean at the same time not. The sky was pink. There were no waves, the water was completely still.

It was weird but beautiful. Behind them was a small tropical forest. They were on a small island. f𝑟e𝒆𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗oѵ𝐞𝗹.c૦𝑚

If this place was not inside the labyrinth, someone would have believed they were on a trip to a different world. It was calm and peaceful there. Contrasting to all the floors they had been.

Alice was overjoyed arriving at this beautiful place.

'This place is perfect for Shin and my date.' But she thought of something and her joyful mood turned sour.

'If only they weren't here.' She glanced at Simon, who was making a stupefied face while watching the scenery, and Elena, who was glancing at Shin.

'This bitch, I have to make her give up on Shin. With a warning or forcefully. Doesn't matter.'

'Calm down Alice. You have to bear with it until we get out of the Labrinth. I can't even kill her now 'cause she is close to Shin and his family.'

'This is frustrating.'

Alice was barely tolerating Elena and her advances toward Shin.

'I'll skin her alive, I guess.'

Alice was having some dangerous thoughts as she glanced at Elena.

Feeling the killing intent toward her, she turned to look at Alice who was glaring daggers at her.

Elena made a face that said, 'I won't give up.' This made Alice extremely angry.

'This sight is beautiful. But why do I feel like it's a trap?' Shin thought this relaxing mood was so that the challengers loosen their guard and become helpless after a surprise attack. fre𝙚𝓌𝒆𝚋noѵel.c𝚘m

'If that's the case.' Shin widened his eyes and immediately send a transmission with his mind control to others.

[Everyone! Be on guard. This is a trap.]

With Shin's words, everyone was on alert. Shin activated his predator's eyes but wasn't able to see through the sea.

'Why can't I see through that?' He gritted his teeth in frustration.

He turned to check the tropical forest and, to his surprise, it was empty. There were only trees.

"Just what is going on?" As Shin said that, he found a big open mouth with sharp shark-like teeth ready to eat him alive just half a meter away from him.

"SHIN" Alice shouted in worry. But she wasn't fast enough.

Shin didn't have any time to evade. He just punched the monster inside his big, open mouth.

With a single punch, he burst apart the monster, but his arm was also bitten off. It was bleeding profusely.

Shin gritted his teeth, but that wasn't the end of it. Without any delay, another three monsters were already close to Shin.

Alice started running in Shin's direction. She can't use the Soul bomb as Shin will also be blown off. She tried using a mana ball, but it didn't have any effect.

So close combat was her only option.

Elena wasn't fast enough to shoot Ice attacks as two of those monsters surrounded her too.

"We were so careless." Shin was angry at himself for being so overconfident. He needs some self-reflection.

"How stupid I was." Shin punched the three monsters, killing them, but not before he lost his right arm. As it was bitten off by one of them.

Alice was also stopped by those monsters as she was having difficulty killing them. She didn't have enough time to summon her Soul Grimoire.

So her only option was to fight with her scythe.

"Nooo, Shin, I'm coming. Just hold on, please." Alice shouted while crying and swinging her scythe. She was desperate. If she loses Shin now. There would be nothing left for her.

On the day of the cataclysm. Alice was at her lowest. Her life was ending. When she lost her mother and stepfather. She was alone, and that loneliness was too dark for her. She was just a teenage girl. So what if she was a little more mature than her peers? Her life was full of difficulties. But even then she had her mother, so she believed that everything will be fine.

Her mother was taken from her, and she was the only one left. She thought maybe it was for revenge. But she wasn't able to take revenge for her mother too. Her Ex- father died at the hand's of undead tormentor.

She felt as if her reason to live was taken from her when she couldn't take her revenge.

As she was dying, buried under the debris and suffocating. She felt this was it. When people say that there is both happiness and sadness in life.

She believed there will be a time she could be happy. With a loving family.

Yes, that was her only wish. To have a happy family. But she was dying without having any of that. When she thought her life had no meaning and she died. She opened her eyes to an unusual scene. A handsome man was looking at her worriedly.

Why was she alive? So that she can suffer more? That's what she thought. But when she got to be with Shin sharing some happy moments. She slowly fell in love with this eccentric but kind man, who wasn't even sure of his own thoughts.

But even then, she loved everything about him. Living with his family and getting familial love. Alice believed this was what she wanted.

She thought she could make her own family with Shin. So she would never be alone again. She never wanted to feel that loneliness. But was she too greedy?

Was it wrong for her to find happiness?

When she saw Shin being surrounded and overwhelmed by monsters. This scene overlapped with the one when her mother died and she wasn't fast enough to reach her.

"I won't let anyone take Shin away from me. This time, no one can stop me from making my family. I will find happiness. IF SOMEONE OPPOSES ME, I'LL CRUSH THEM."

All these overwhelming emotions snapped something inside Alice. She heard a soft voice saying to her.

[I hope this time you won't lose him.]

Both the energies inside Alice. Mana and Chaotic energy started circulating and were intense.
