Plundering in the Apocalypse
Chapter 104 Stupid Third Class!!

The 8th floor of the labyrinth had poisonous Velum Serpents.

[Velum Serpents (Level 70-80)]

Although Velum Serpents had extremely potent poison. With enough caution dealing with them was possible and so they did.

Shin and Alice, were able to deal with these serpents and level up nicely.

[You have killed 90 Velum Serpents.]

[You have gained experience.]

[You have leveled up.]

[You have leveled up.]

[+20 Bonus stats for leveling up.]

[Plunder activated]

[You have absorbed 20 stat points.]

[You have absorbed a new skill 'Poison Mist (B)' X90.]

As the corpses of serpents piled up in front of Shin. The floor was cleared.

*Ding*

[Congratulations on clearing the Eighth floor. All the rewards will be distributed while exiting the Labrinth.]

[Please move to the next floor.]

But before they could move to the next floor they were blocked by something or someone unexpected.

"I thought it would be a team of more than 50 people. Who would have thought it was just 2 people?" The man exclaimed and laughed.

"Who are you?" Shin asked the question to the man in front of him. He was cautious of him so he used 'Appraisal' and he got this name as the result.

[Leonard Drake]

"I should be the one to ask this question. Who are you guys?" Leonard's voice cut off Shin mid-thought.

"Why don't I know about someone as powerful as you?" Leonard said while continuing his pondering as he held his chin.

"You guys shouldn't exist. So it's safe to assume. Something is very wrong here." Leonard muttered while confusion was written all over his face.

After the seventh floor's clear announcement. Leonard increased his hunting speed and cleared the floor to catch up with Shin and Alice.

Though he was able to clear the floor and started going through the floors. But, by the time he reached floor 8. To his surprise, it was already cleared.

"Do you guys know how annoying it is when someone takes what's rightfully yours?" Leonard was very irritated at the thought of missing out on the first clear rewards for 8 whole floors.

"What are you talking about?" Shin asked trying to understand Leonard's motive.

"I did everything I could to get the advantage before others could. I thought maybe I could change this life. But what did I get? Failure. Again." Leonard continued his blabber.

"I calculated all the variables I might come across. All the strong awakeneds in Aston city. Even the ones which I have to kill."

"So, why don't I know you? Who are you two?" Leonard questioned while pointing his fingers toward Shin and Alice. Although he did want to kill them. He had a lot of unanswered questions.

"Why would you know all the Awakeneds in Aston city? Normally, you shouldn't know about us." Shin asked as this was only natural that Leonard don't know him. But his reaction is very unusual.

"Oh, you don't understand. It should have been normal. But not in my case. It doesn't matter what you guys are. Or whoever you are. I have to kill you guys before you mess up any more of my plans." Leonard had stopped thinking about other things. His mind was only filled with blood lust.

'If these two are stronger than me. I can just escape. I can recover from a near-death state. So escaping them won't be impossible.' With the confidence of the blessing, Leonard had no other plans or strategies for the opponent. All his previous life experiences meant nothing. He was just filled with the desire to kill.

"Shin, do you know him?" Alice asked while frowning. She didn't like the fact someone disturbed their precious time.

'Just where did this bastard come from?'

'Why is he blabbering all that nonsense?'

'Why are we even listening? Let's just kill him and move forward.' Alice was irritated at Leonard's actions.

"I don't know him. But he was the one who entered with us. He seems retarded maybe we should ignore him and move on." Shin whispered to Alice to which she nodded in agreement.

"This man indeed looks retarded. Let's go."

Both of them planned to ignore this poor guy and enter the next floor.

"Where the fuck you two are going? You are going to die here. So stay still." Leonard started giving threats as he unsheathed the Bloody Khalsa.

With the immense killing intent emitting from him. Shin and Alice started taking him seriously.

Leonard didn't wait for them and sent waves of attacks on Shin and Alice.

As he swung his sword. Red sword cuts flew across the air with the intent to cut their destined target.

*Swoosh*

*Slash*

Shin dodged the attacks and deflected the ones aimed at Alice which she wasn't able to parry.

'Even after seeing his status, I thought of leaving him. But he had to involve himself with us.' Shin sighed while looking at the formless in his hands which took the form of a sword just now.

Shin once again used his appraisal hoping that what he saw before was wrong.

[Leonard Drake]

[Level - 71]

[Title - Killer, Villain, Regressor.]

[Age - 21]

[Special ability - Blood Sword Art (E) ]

[Blessing - Zephyair's Blessing (Curse)]

[Trait - Merciless, Psychopath, Murderer, Dangerous, Angry.]

Shin sighed but he looked again just to check a title once again.

Regressor.

What does this mean?

'Is that the reason? He is talking nonsense. If he is a regressor does that mean he knows about the future? No, he was confused about meeting us so I can assume he doesn't know about us.'

Shin was still thinking when Leonard's another round of attacks started.

"You still have time to think about other things. How dare you look down on me? I'll kill you so dreadfully you will regret being born." Leonard cursed while the killing intent coming from him increased several folds.

'This guy looks like a third-rate villain. Why did he get a second chance?' Shin thought then shook his head.

'No No No. That's not important. If he has the memory of the future he might be useful.' Shin again looked at the bloodthirsty Leonard who was preparing for the next attacks.

'I don't think he will be useful alive. I also don't think keeping such a dangerous person alive would be worth it.' While Shin was thinking that something came to his mind which made him smirk unintentionally.

'Memory cubes.'

'How could I forget about that?'

'Hehehe, it's decided then.'

"Alice, I'm going to kill him," Shin said as he raised his sword ready to attack Leonard.

"Okay." Alice had no problem with Shin's wishes. Rather she wanted to kill this annoying bug.

"Good, Good. Don't hide and come. I will kill you now. You dare to take my rewards. You won't get away with this." Leonard crazily swung his sword around.

Shin with his abnormal stats was easily able to overpower Leonard's swordplay.

*Clash*

*Clang*

"Lava Flames." Shin used his skill on Leonard.

Leonard, who wasn't expecting a sudden surprise attack got caught in flames.

"AAAHHH"

"IT FUCKING HURTS."

'Good, he deserves to scream like that. This is his karma.' Shin thought.

'Maybe this is where it ends.' Shin never expected Leonard to continue fighting after this attack. His whole body was charred. But.

His deadly wounds started recovering at immense speed. A few moments later he was like a totally new person.

"What the?" Shin was dumbfounded.

"Hehehe, do you think that was enough to deal with me? I won't get caught by any more surprise attacks." Leonard was extremely confident now that he knows Shin's power.

"I just need to be cautious of your flames and I'll be fine." Leonard started swinging his sword.

As Leonard noticed Shin was about to attack again he thought.

'Again those fire attacks. I'll just have to get closer to you.' Leonard thought and took a step closer to Shin. He was just waiting for the flames to come out so he can dodge.

But to his surprise, Shin muttered something different.

"Electro bolt."

"What the fuck?" Leonard was dumbfounded and tried to change the direction and dodge just like he planned. But unfortunately for him, the bolt of lightning was faster than the flames.

"AARRGHHH"

"ZZZZTT"

"H-how?" Leonard was horrified. His body started recovering again but that wasn't the end as Shin had learned his lesson.

"Gravity control." With Shin's next move a heavy pressure bore on Leonard and the next moment his body was floating in the air and soon snapped like a twig.

"AAAAHHHH"

Leonard recovered again but his face was devoid of any emotions. He looked at Shin with his lifeless eyes and asked.

"Who are hell are you? How can you have so many powers?"

"Those are just skills." Shin tried to lie.

"Do you think I can't the difference between a skill and an ability?" Leonard scoffed.

"But that doesn't matter now."

'I have to escape from here.' Leonard's mind started getting clear. He tried to make a run for the floor's exit gate.

"Arcane web." Those webs shoot out from Shin's hands and caught Leonard entrapping him.

"Sorry man. You aren't going anywhere." Shin said as he saw Leonard's hopeless expression.
