Plundering in the Apocalypse



After discussing further details, Shin mentioned everyone's task in a brief.

"Elena will be responsible for gathering everyone and explaining the details of the plan."

For this plan, he will need the help of all the guild members. In his absence, Shin left Elena in charge of leading the guild members.

Elena nodded seriously, but inwardly she felt happy for some inexplicable reason.

Pointing at the vampire duo, he said.

"Aurora and Emily will be on standby for now and will wait for my response." They didn't have any opinion on this.

No one was going to be a part of his infiltration plan. He was going to work alone.

Shin had sent a telepathic message to Alice but there has been no response from her side. Moreover, he doesn't know how to enter the sanctuary so he could only wait for her to answer back.

"Dad, please send me the location."

Alfred nodded and shared the location details with Shin.

The place where currently the children were being kept was around 230 km from Aston City. It was a small village known as Kulhard. It doesn't have any specialty and is quite an inconspicuous place.

After preparing some things and keeping them inside Soul Space. Shin used Shadow Veil to turn invisible and, with the help of Gravity, he soared through the sky.

His destination is the village of Kulhard.

***

The village of Kulhard.

A bus stopped on the outskirts of the village.

Several people wearing a uniform of a charitable trust came out of the bus leading a group of orphan children.

"Mister, is this the place where we will live from now on?" A 12-year-old kid with a small face asked the man with thin eyebrows who was leading them.

Hearing him ask this, several other children also looked over curiously. It seems they also wanted to ask the same question.

The man turned to look at him with a kind smile and said, "No, we will take a break here. Then we will go to our destination."

"Okay," the kid nodded with a sunny smile. Obviously, this uncle in front of him was a 'kind-hearted' person. Just yesterday, the demons killed his parents and destroyed his home. He who didn't know what to do was helpless in that vast city. Fortunately, this uncle came and helped him. He promised to take him to a place with a lot of children where he could go to school and live a good life.

Not only him, these good people also helped his friend who was in a similar situation and also many other children.

'Mom, Dad, look after me. I promise I'll do my best to live a good life. I'll study hard from now on.' The kid thought, looking at the sky, hoping his parents were watching him.

On his side, he saw a small girl just a little younger than him hugging a rabbit plushie tightly. Her eyes were red because of the dried tears.

"Mom... Dad... *Wuu*"

The kid's eyes also became moist, looking at his friend's teary eyes.

"Lily, don't cry. Everything will be fine."

Lily looked at her friend, who had also lost his parents just like her, but was still acting strong.

"No... ah."

Noah looked at Lily and couldn't help but want to cry together with her. But he knew he couldn't break like this. He needs to be strong for himself and Lily's sake.

"I am here with you. Don't cry, you shouldn't let Uncle and Aunty worry about you in heaven."

Hearing this, Lily bit her small lips and pretended to be strong, trying her best to hold back her tears.

"Umhm." She nodded her small head slowly. She didn't want her parents to worry about her in heaven.

When the man with thin eyebrows heard their conversation. Although he had a kind smile on his face, inwardly, he was very bored. 'It's exhausting looking at these runts.'

'Can't we just give them sleeping gas and directly transport them? Why so much trouble?'

Though dissatisfied, he could only complain inwardly.

Under Noah's comfort, Lily also calmed down a little. After that, both of them curiously looked at the small building they were entering.

At first, they were all taken to have lunch. They arrived in a large hall which looked like a canteen and could easily accommodate 50 people.

As it was lunchtime, they served a meal for all the newly brought orphan children.

"Wow, it's good." Noah's eyes lit up, tasting the first bite, so he glanced at Lily and urged. "Lily, you should try it too."

He knew very well that Lily hadn't eaten anything since yesterday. So no matter what, he had to somehow have her eat something.

Although Lily wanted to shake her head and say that she has no appetite but looking at Noah's concerned eyes, those words couldn't come out of her mouth.

In the end, she could only put the plushie beside her and start eating.

Seeing Lily's actions, a relieved look appeared on Noah's face, then he immediately gave a sunny smile and said cheerfully.

"Told you, right? It's good."

"Umhm." Lily nodded and ate her meal.

The man with thin eyebrows looked at all the children and had a kind smile on his face. But inwardly he was thinking that it should be their last meal they will be eating happily.

Of course, there was no pity in his eyes. Because, to him, these little runts don't even deserve this meal.

As everyone's meal was coming to an end, he walked up and said in a loud voice, attracting everyone's attention.

"Children, did you like the meal prepared for you?"

A good deal of cheerful laughter broke out. Hearing this, the man nodded in satisfaction. The kind smile never left his face. Which made the children like him even more. Only if they knew what he was thinking, they would cry out in horror.

'These runts are so annoying. What are they, howler monkeys? How can they make so much noise? It's irritating. I want to beat them to death. But these products can't be damaged.'
