Chapter 37 - Low lives.

"Um, are you fine telling us about your abilities?" Shin questioned Jenny who just told them their abilities. Not that it will matter to Shin who can easily obtain information about them with his appraisal.

But him using appraisal and her confessing herself are different things. It shows that she is putting her trust in them. So Shin couldn't help but worry.

"I believe I can trust in you guys." Jenny turned to look at Alice and said.

"After all, you saved my husband. You have my absolute trust."

'I won't lie in front of a goddess.' Thought Jenny as she smiled at Alice. She had already started considering Alice as a goddess or an angel hiding in human disguise.

Her faith in Alice started building at this point and how this will affect their future. It's something to discuss later on.

Jenny again started her narration of the havoc.

"The situation was already out of hand. Some people did try to fight those monsters. Many of them died and some were able to kill them. We thought that with their help we might be able to escape from here." Jenny sighed and continued.

"But it was only wishful thinking on our part. Soon more monsters flooded in and those people just escape using their abilities."

"There were many people who didn't awaken. While defending from monsters many people died as we kept getting pushed back. By the time we realized we were already on the 4th floor and it was night."

"With the help of remaining awakened, we were still alive. But only 30 of us were left. Of which only 15 were awakened."

"All other people either escaped or died."

"Then for the whole night, we kept those monsters at bay while changing and resting while switching. James killed many monsters from the barrage of his stones. I tried defending to the best of my abilities."

"By the time we noticed it was morning and only 3 of us awakened were left. Me, James, and another guy. We were too tired. We wanted to rest but couldn't. Those other unawakened people didn't even fight all this time and just sat doing nothing."

"I was infuriated at their behavior. I tried to ask them to help. It was at that moment when they all started shining in different colors and I understood that they also awakened." Jenny was cut off by Shin's question.

"Wait people shine when they awakened?" Shin couldn't help but ask.

"Yeah, they do," Alice said as Jenny also nodded.

"Hmm, interesting," Shin muttered. He never saw anyone awakened in front of him. So he never knew about shining in colors.

'Wait does that mean I was also shining when I awakened? How come I didn't notice.' Shin frowned.

It was not that he didn't notice. He actually never shined when he awakened. He still didn't know the reason.

Shin suddenly looked at Jenny who was waiting for Shin to say something so she can continue.

"Please," Shin said gesturing for her to continue. Shin didn't know why but he felt that Jenny was looking at him coldly. Did he annoy her somehow?

Jenny continued.

"When I saw those people getting awakened. I felt hope. Maybe with their help, we can survive this. It was already morning and the number of monsters was far less compared to yesterday. We might have been able to escape."

"I and James were already tired after constant fights. As James recovered he asked me to take some rest and I compiled. But those newly awakened people were still not helping us. Then a blonde-haired boy came forward. For some reason, it felt like all the other people were following him."

"I had a bad premonition. He said to us," Good job, holding out all this while. Now that we have awakened. We can get out of here ourselves. Just do some little more help and be a good bait." As he said that he grabbed the other awakened by his collar and muttered something. Suddenly that man died screaming and the blonde hair boy shot out some red aura which soon calmed down."

"He said this is good and then threw the corpse. The people behind him weren't surprised nor did they flinch when he killed that man."

"He turned to us and was about to do the same. Then James confronted him. James was too tired but he did his best to fight. At that moment we were attacked by monsters."

"Seeing the monsters attack. One of his lackeys used his ability and a blade of wind pierced James' chest at the same time a monster managed to scratch the open wound."

"James still managed to kill those monsters. Those people wanted us dead. But at that moment I put up a barrier and they knew they couldn't go past my barrier so they just snorted and the blonde boy said.

(Blonde boy said)"You will still die here with your husband. If you would have removed that barrier we would have taken you with us. At least you could have been a little useful. I would have kept you alive as my personal toy. Too bad you chose to die."

He said as he licked his lips." Jenny said that with clear disgust in her voice.

When Alfred and Reina heard this. They were infuriated. They wanted to kill that blonde boy with their own hands.

Shin had a single thought in mind. 'That piece of shit needs to die.'

That kind of scum should be removed from existence.

Alice was silent by her eyes already turned red. Her dark side was about to take over. After all, she also met scums like that. But she was strong enough to deal with them.

Too bad she wasn't able to kill them. But she will if she gets a chance. Maybe she can do some torture sessions with that blonde guy. It might relieve her anger a little bit.

'As I thought all guys are scum, lowlives who shouldn't exist. Those horny dogs are mindless creatures when they are in their youth.'

Then she turned to look at Shin and her eyes turned to normal as a question appeared in her mind.

'But why is Shin different?'

'He is nothing like them.'

'Are there good guys out there too?'

'One thing is certain. My darling is nothing like those lowly creatures in human skin.'

'If that's the case I can't let my darling get tainted by such scums.'

'I better take some precautions.'

'If I find such scums. I better eliminate them myself before they mess with my darling.'

At that moment Alice started making her plans.

'Fufufu~ No one can come between me and my darling's happy future together.'
