Plundering in the Apocalypse-Chapter 107 Leonard’s Memory!!

When last time Shin used the memory cubes of Jake and the others? He got to see many things and mostly the useful experiences were highlighted. But now that he was using the memory cube of a regressor he wanted to extract all the memories he could.

He knew he may not like this experience. But he had to do that.

As Shin started absorbing Leonard's memory cube. He got to see the previous life of Leonard which he lived.

How he awakened as an F rank. He barely survived the monster attack. How the world started changing after that. How he was oppressed by others for being a low rank awakened.

All the events that are going to happen will impact the world. Finally Leonard's first murder. After that, he went on a killing spree. Even for a slight disagreement, he would kill the other person.

He was approached by a criminal organization. That was the turning point in his life. He started committing many heinous acts. Murder, assassination, kidnapping, human experiments, rape, human trafficking, and the most serious of all demonization.

As his acts became more and more terrifying. He became a villain who plagued society. He killed many people. Even though he was a low rank at first but with the demonization, his powers also increased. The price for which was his leftover humanity. Which he gave up on very easily. All he wanted was power.

As Shin watched everything and all the experiences of Leonard's previous life. He started regretting it. Just why did he kill that man so easily? He didn't deserve such an easy death.

What felt like years was only some time for Shin. This was such a mysterious feeling.

After a few years passed. The day of Leonard's death came. He was killed being surrounded by many awakeneds. But Shin's eyes were focused on only one person.

There was only one person among the awakened whom he already knew. It was Elena Adger. She was called the Ice princess. Just like her power. She was a very powerful and influential person. But there was something that disturbed Shin.

Elena's face was cold. Not like her expressionless or composed face. She was like an emotionless doll. Her eyes were hollow, devoid of any emotions.

'Just what did she experience?'

From the memories of Leonard. Elena was a very powerful individual but she didn't have any family or friends.

'Does that mean Simon died?'

Leonard never bothered to go too deep into her matters. She was only an enemy to him. But Elena wasn't the only one. There was another individual who Leonard considered an enemy and this time. He had done it in every detail while searching for her information.

This individual was none other than Anna Williams. The blonde-haired super model girl whom Shin had saved on the first day.

He saw many news and information about things which is invaluable. The powerful individuals and many other secrets were revealed a lot later.

For the current Shin. This was very important.

Shin saw many things which he never believed would occur and finally, Leonard died.

"Should I continue watching?" Shin thought maybe he should continue. After all, it's only some days worth of memory after his reincarnation. What could go wrong?

"It's not like he could commit crimes this early. Right?" That was where Shin was wrong. He was sick of all the murders Leonard did in his past life. He didn't expect Leonard to already kill people after his reincarnation.

His expectations were broken with the death of the Old man of the weapon store.

After taking Blooded Khalsa from the shop. Leonard went to arrange food for himself. When monster attacks were about to happen. He didn't go to directly kill them. Instead, he waited. He captured a bunch of kids and used them as bait to trap a goblin first.

Those kids begged him but he didn't listen and instead hid himself as he waited.

After a while, a few goblins came. They started eating those kids alive. Leonard didn't feel a hint of remorse. He just waited for the opportunity.

His first trap failed as many goblins came together. He then went on to capture more kids. He was doing everything near a school. His plan was simple. Bait a single goblin and let it eat a few kids.

He would attack it after it's full. After several tries and the deaths of a dozen kids. Leonard was finally able to awaken. After his awakening, he started killing humans to the level up first.

Only after killing a bunch of people, he started killing monsters. Leonard tricked many people and killed them.

After leveling up for some days. He hired a team and set off to Khalsa Mountain range. Shin saw the trial and Leonard betraying everyone.

By this time Shin had already expected Leonard to kill anyone so he wasn't much surprised.

That's where he was wrong. That night Leonard was traveling on a bus. The bus was almost empty only a few people were there. On the seat next to him sat a woman with a newborn baby in her arms.

She looked like a newly married woman with a kid. Shin saw the little kid and smiled.

Leonard was doing nothing just looking outside the window.

A moment later the baby started crying. Leonard felt a little annoyed but didn't say anything. The woman tried everything to calm the baby down. But nothing worked. That was when the baby rubbed her snot at Leonard's sleeve.

The woman immediately apologized. She asked for Leonard's forgiveness. Leonard looked at her expressionlessly and said.

"Don't worry about it. It's not your fault. Give me the baby."

The woman thought maybe the man wanted to play with the baby. She was relieved as the gentleman in front of her was a good man.

Although she was a little reluctant to give her baby to a stranger. Her thoughts were conflicted. But before she could think much Leonard already took the baby from her hand.

"S-Sir."

"Don't worry. It wasn't your fault. It was this thing's fault. So I won't punish you." Leonard said with a cold voice.

Shin felt something very ominous. But he could not stop it. It was after all just a memory of the past.

Before the woman could say anything. Leonard raised the baby and tore the body in half. The baby kept on crying but as the body was separated all the cries also stopped.

The woman went unconscious from shock. All the people inside the bus were terrified. Leonard didn't think much and released his killing intent. Everyone went unconscious. He killed everyone and got off the bus.

"No, you bastard." Shin couldn't stop him. This was just one of his inhumane acts.

Every time Leonard killed someone. Shin had reacted just like that. He just wanted to stop it but all his shouts were useless. It was after all just a memory.

As Shin was experiencing all these memories from Leonard's perspective. He was able to feel Leonard's emotions.

But Leonard felt nothing while killing people. Lives didn't matter to him in the slightest. All he thought was whether the person is useful or not.

If it's the latter case. He won't hesitate to kill even with a slight disagreement.

He killed many people but was never caught. He also died an easy death.

After that, he saw Leonard's memory of him meeting some shady people.

Leonard of course killed those two but he was intrigued by their leader as he already knew their future about them.

He also knew something that interested Shin. The leader of the group had the ability 'Teleport'.

This organization will create many troubles in the future.

As the memory of Leonard ended with his death by Shin. That was the only time he felt Leonard was terrified. He was confused. In all of Leonard's memory, Shin never saw himself or Alice. There wasn't even a mention.

Did they never exist in the past-future? 𝘧𝑟𝘦𝒆w𝚎𝙗nov𝘦𝗹.𝐜o𝓶

As Shin opened his eyes he found himself on Alice's lap. She was stroking his hair.

"What are you doing?"

"Oh, you are awake." Alice kindly said.

"Yeah, how long was I out for?" Shin asked while he comfortably laid there. Without bothering to get up.

"2 hours 15 minutes." Alice saw the time and replied.

"...And you were watching over me all this time?" Shin asked.

"Of course. I wasn't bored though I was playing with your hair."

"Oops" Alice immediately closed her mouth realizing her mistake.

"Hahaha," Shin laughed at her reaction.

'Seeing her smile. All those experiences feel like a dream.' Shin thought as he moved his head from her lap.

Alice didn't like Shin getting up as she won't be able to play anymore. But she knew this wasn't the time for that so she restrained herself.

"So, was it worth it?" Alice asked Shin.

Shin nodded his head and replied.

"I got a lot of information. Now we can plan our future course of action."

Alice nodded her head and hugged him.

"I know you must have experienced terrible things. But remember Leonard is already dead. We can't do anything about it."

"Yes," Shin replied as he hugged her tightly.
