Entering Apocalypse in Easy-Mode

The gray monster's eyes stared at Reed in front of him. Reed didn't care even though he saw a hint of fear of death inside the monster's eyes.

It was a sudden flash of feeling. Reed didn't know if it was a real thing or just in his head.

However, Reed couldn't care less. He activated his [Skill: Sword Slash] together with Rodney.

Their katana swords were enveloped in almost the same dark purplish aura. Then they swung their swords forward almost simultaneously.

Curved sword slashes of a dark purplish color came out from their blades.

The two sword slashes shot toward the gray monster. More precisely, towards its neck that almost severed from attack before.

*SRATT!*

*SRATT!*

The sword slash hit the gray monster's neck. But do not immediately behead it even though it was already wounded.

Their slashes only created deep wounds from the front and back.

The monster seemed to open its mouth as if it wanted to scream.

However, its desperate attempt was pointless because part of its throat had already been crushed.

The monster's head hung limply because its neck couldn't support its weight of it.

Seeing that, Reed and Rodney immediately knew what they had to do.

They both stared at each other for a few moments. Then nodded together.

Reed shot from the front while Rodney from behind. They slashed their swords from two opposite sides simultaneously.

The gray monster's head rolled onto the barn floor. The blood spurted up like a fountain.

Not wanting to be hit by any more of the blood, Reed and Rodney jumped back.

The monster collapsed onto the warehouse floor. The blood pooled with a disturbing rancid smell.

Reed and Rodney got the same notifications their previous group members received.

Their reactions were not much different. They stared at the notification in front of them with shocked eyes.

"This is so strange. Not only are these monsters' Levels higher than we know. But the rewards we receive are also less," Reed complained in between panting breaths.

"They mess with the setting again," Rodney said, shaking his head. 'This has never happened before.'

Rodney sank into his own thoughts and worries. How did this apocalypse get this messy?

But Rodney didn't take long to find out why.

'It was Clyde.'

Rodney didn't know how to feel about Clyde's existence. On the one hand, Clyde is an anomaly for this apocalypse.

Even in the midst of this strange disaster, there are anomalies like Clyde that mess it up.

However, on the other hand, Rodney also enjoyed the benefits of Clyde's existence.

The man who looked like he hadn't even reached the age of twenty made him to this high Level in the First Chapter.

But because things had changed so much like this, Rodney became even more agitated.

Because he doesn't know what will happen next. He can't plan anything even though he already has a lot of information.

All that information would be useless when the future that was going to happen was different from what he knew.

"What are you doing?"

Reed's question snapped Rodney out of his thoughts.

"Oh, it's nothing," said Rodney.

The gray spikes blocking the rolling door of the shed started crumbling shortly after the monster died.

Rodney dissected the monster's body to retrieve the artifact fragments and stored them in his Inventory.

"Let's get out of here," Rodney said.

Reed nodded and happily agreed to his words.

Meanwhile, in the white room with a square pattern, Clyde was looking at Gremory.

Gremory, a mysterious woman who claims to be the Demon Duchess.

He had a body that could make any normal man drool. Gremory also knew how seductive she was that she wore clothes like that.

But now that wasn't Clyde's biggest concern. But the deal that wants to be offered by her.

"I can give you enormous power."

Gremory got straight to the point. She looked at Clyde with seductive eyes and lips curved into a smile of confidence. As if she was sure that Clyde would just agree to her offer.

After all, who wouldn't want power in a world like this?

"Do you have any other offers?"

To her surprise, Clyde said such a reply. Even so, such an answer was not entirely beyond her estimation.

"You don't need power?" Gremory asked again.

"It's not that I don't need power. But I also want to know what awaits me in the future. That way I can use my power well," Clyde replied.

Inside Clyde's head, he was thinking of not saying something that would offend Gremory.

That way he hopes to be able to get all kinds of benefits from her in the future.

Gremory tilted her head to one side. "So you want to get information?"

Clyde answered with a nod.

Gremory's red lips curved again into a wider smile.

"You sure are interesting. Normally, those humans wouldn't think twice about receiving power," Gremory said.

Clyde saw the mysterious look in Gremory's eyes.

From her eyes, Clyde sensed she was secretly thinking of some kind of scheme.

'I have to be careful,' Clyde thought. At this moment, his heart was pounding with a mixture of anxiety and fear.

The one before him now was a Demon Duchess. Can he carry out his intention to outsmart her?

"Alright. Tell me what you want to know," Gremory said.

"I don't want to say anything before you tell me the price I have to pay," Clyde replied.

"Ahahahaha!" Gremory laughed as if amused.

"You are indeed interesting. You are not stupid either. You already know that there is a price you have to pay every time you get an answer. Whatever that answer is."

Clyde swallowed his saliva. 'I almost forgot about that. Luckily I managed to remember before asking any questions.'

"I like you, Clyde. Because I like you, I will answer three of your questions."

​ It was unexpected. Clyde couldn't tell how the Demon's mind was going.

However, this is a good opportunity for him.

Or is it?
