Plundering in the Apocalypse-Chapter 118 Problem!!
"Although it's not there. I have a way to get it now." Shin replied easing her worries.
"What do you mean?" Alice asked curiously.
"In Leonard's memory, I found a way."
"What? Was he someone that important in his previous life?" Alice asked as she couldn't believe someone like him was strong enough to obtain divine powers.
"No, he got to know about these from his encounter with other species when he tried to kill them."
"Other species?" Alice was confused. "Do you mean monsters?"
"No not them. I'll explain later. They are soon going to arrive anyway and the ones in the hiding will also come out. We will need to do our preparations. We only have a few days." ƒ𝚛𝐞𝚎𝑤𝘦𝚋𝓷o𝚟e𝘭.c𝐨𝙢
Alice nodded her head in understanding. Although she didn't understand much.
Shin walked toward the corpse of the Wyvern.
"First step pouring Diving energy inside the body."
Shin touched the corpse and started circulating Diving energy.
"This should do it."
"Now extracting the poison from the body. Mana Absorption from the blood."
"Electro bolt."
"Once more I guess. Electro bolt."
"Good enough."
Shin turned to Alice and smiled.
"The preparations are complete."
Alice was observing Shin's every action curiously.
[Plunder Activated]
[You have absorbed 250 stat points.]
[You have absorbed a new skill Pseudo Dragon Flames (S).]
[You have acquired Gray Wyvern's Scales (Item).]
[You have acquired Divine Blessing (Item).]
[You have acquired Gray Wyvern's Claws (Item).]
[You have acquired Gray Wyvern's horns (Item).]
"Great, it worked." Shin smiled happily.
Alice also got excited hearing Shin's words. That means Elena can be saved.
'Just you wait, Bitch. I still haven't shown off in front of you. So don't die on me. Hmph.'
Shin didn't notice Alice's expression as he thought of the notices that he missed while fighting.
[Upgrade is complete.]
[Second Advancement is complete.]
[Congratulations on your second advancement for your ability 'Plunder'.]
[New effects are added.]
[New ability-related skill is generating...]
[Congratulations You have obtained a Special skill 'Loan']
"Ohh, so the strength I felt was from my advancement."
'What timing. I was really lucky or we might have died right there.'
'This new skill seems interesting.'
[Loan - User can give or take skills temporarily from others with some conditions.
Conditions can be decided by the Lender to which the borrower agrees.]
"I'll try it out later."
*Ding*
[Congratulations on clearing the Tenth floor. You have cleared the Labyrinth. Proceeding with the distribution of rewards.]
[Would you like the rewards for each floor separately or combined?]
[Seprate/Combined]
"I think I'll probably get better rewards combined," Shin mumbled as he made his choice.
[All the rewards are being combined...]
[You have obtained Wyvern Armor (Heroic)]
[You have obtained a Mysterious egg (?)]
[You have obtained Akapuhala Fruits X10 (Item)]
[You have obtained a Purple Skill Book.]
"These rewards seem pretty good." Shin had a satisfied smile on his face as he glanced at Alice who was also receiving her rewards. The rewards are distributed based on contribution.
In the next moment Shin heard a familiar voice he was expecting all this time.
[Well done legacy challenger. Your performance was beyond marvelous.]
Zephyair's voice echoed as the surrounding dust started taking form.
Shin smiled at the sight of him.
"So did I pass the trial?"
[Yes, you have passed with flying colors. Now you are officially the Legacy challenger.] 𝑓𝓇𝑒𝑒𝚠e𝘣𝓷𝘰ѵe𝑙.com
A green light came out of Zephyair and settled inside Shin's body.
[That's the mark of a true challenger. It proves you have faced hardships and took the righteous path instead of betraying your comrades. As you have done so you have the opportunity to complete the major Legacy connected to the Khalsa legacy.]
"Wait Wait. So you mean to say that this legacy is just a minor one?"
[Yes, but for humans, that is very powerful too and you also got an opportunity to challenge the major one in the future. So you should be happy.]
Hearing Zephyair's words Shin was flabbergasted. As per Leonard's memory, Khalsa's legacy was one of the strongest legacies competing with the other top two, and Zephyair's revelation of it being a minor legacy was shocking.
[Well there's time for the next trial so I'll go now. We will meet again. See you, Challenger Shin.]
Zephyair's body disappeared and returned to dust with those fleeting words.
'Major Legacy, hmm. Well, we still have time to prepare.'
Shin was brought out of his thoughts by the sound of a notification.
[The portal is ready. Please exit the Labyrinth.]
Shin glanced at Alice as he offered his hand and asked "Shall we?"
Alice took his hand with a smile.
"That was exciting."
"Really?" Shin questioned.
"Of course, you won't understand a girl's heart," Alice replied with a pout.
Shin shook his head as he had no way of arguing back so he decided to keep silent.
Both of them one last time glanced at the dead body of the Wyvern and walked towards the portal.
They had experienced a lot of things inside this labyrinth which helped in their growth both physically and mentally.
"Alice, we have to make a lot of preparations."
"Is this because of Leonard's memory?" Alice asked as she saw Shin's serious expression.
"Yes, many terrifying things are going to happen." Shin had a solemn look on his face as he said that.
"These monster attacks were just the beginning of the real disasters. Take it as a tutorial."
"I see." Alice didn't say anything else.
'That means the peaceful life I wanted with Shin is nowhere near in the future. But that doesn't mean I'll give up on achieving that. That day will surely come and I'll wait.'
With these thoughts, both of them entered the portal disappearing from the Labyrinth.
[Would you like to leave your name in the 'Wall of Honor'?]
"No thanks. There are already a lot of troubles we have to deal with. Shadow Veil and Gravity control." Shin immediately activated his skills.
'It will be chaos outside. Hash.' He sighed.

Outside the Labyrinth.
All engravings were now lit golden. All the awakeneds, big guild leaders, major corporations, and powerhouses from Aston and other nearby cities were waiting to get a glimpse of the powerful awakened named Leonard Drake.
All the big groups had the same goal in mind, That is to recruit him at any cost. The competition for his recruitment was intense but the other people just wanted to get a glimpse of him. The legendary awakened who managed to clear all ten floors of the labyrinth where others can't even come close to him in terms of strength.
Who is that young man? All the media channels were broadcasting live news regarding him for countless hours. It was time for his appearance. As the public took a deep breath and all eyes were on the gate.
A moment later the big gate to the labyrinth opened. A strong gush of wind escaped inside the labyrinth. Everyone gulped and waited for the appearance of the legendary awakened Leonard Drake. But to deny their expectations there was no one. Leonard Drake was not there and even after waiting for some time, they couldn't see him appearing.
The silence soon turned into an uproar. The Awakened Leonard Drake couldn't be found. The most disappointed were those groups who wanted to recruit him and waited all this time.
All the media channels and people started speculating about his disappearance.
"Awakened Leonard went missing."
"Is the Awakened Leonard Drake dead?"
"No, the Labyrinth was cleared so he should be alive."
"Then where is he?"
"Is he intentionally hiding from everyone?"
"What is the reason for his disappearance?"
***
"There are so many people here. Good thing I used shadow veil before coming back." Shin was shocked by the number of people waiting in front of the Labyrinth while filing their breaths.
"Let's go, Shin. Elena is waiting." Alice tugged on his sleeve and urged him.
"Yeah let's hurry."
Both of them started flying and made their way out of there leaving the excited crowd waiting for a dead man.
***
Alice and Shin arrived in front of Simon's house.
*Ding Dong*
"You are here. Come on in." Simon welcomed them. He had an anxious expression on his face.
Although he had full trust in Shin and Alice's skills. Her sister's safety made him fearful.
Simon grabbed Shin's hand and clapped his hands.
"Shin, can Elena be saved?" Simon had a desperate look on his face.
Shin had a close look at Simon and noticed dark bags under his eyes and it was obvious from a place that his body was tired.
'Sure enough, he didn't sleep a wink.' Shin thought inwardly.
"Don't worry, let's go to her now." Shin didn't want to waste any more time.
Simon nodded and lead Shin and Alice to Elena's room.
As they entered the room a cold chill ran all over their body.
The previous room which had ice glaciers here and there was now a complete Ice cave. Everything was covered on ice and Elena was still unconscious and covered in an ice tablet.
"Shin... Please... Save her." Simon's voice was very weak. He had been watching over her all this time and seeing her in this state was very painful for him.
"Don't worry." Shin immediately brought out the level 300 monster core and the bottle of divine blessing.
He poured mana into them and let them float to Elena.
Elena's body immediately absorbed them and the ice around her started melting and the ice tablet started to harden.
Shin used his magic eyes and confirmed.
"The upgrade is in progress."
Simon's eyes brightened as he heard it. Shin continued.
"But there's a problem."
