Plundering in the Apocalypse



Alfred said as he hinted at Aurora, whose expression was dark.

"Rafe Wolner participated in the murder of your parents when he was 15 years old. At that time, his body and strength were far beyond an adult martial artist's. He was also called the genius of the clan after my elder brother, Keith. But he lost his left arm in his fight against Louis. At least that's what he reported."

Aurora and Emily had distorted expressions on their faces. Hearing Rafe's name, they released un-disguised killing intent as they grit their teeth in hatred.

Of course, they knew about him. All these years, they have searched for information about their enemies to complete their revenge.

Alfred understood their emotions, but he wasn't one to appease them. So continued speaking again, which dispersed their killing intent, attracting their attention.

"Rafe wasn't the only genius in the younger generation ever since his childhood. Shin was also considered a genius." When Alfred said this, everyone was a little surprised. But this also roused doubt. With a confused expression, Alice asked, "If that's the case, why didn't Shin practice martial arts?"

At her question, Shin's body stiffened a bit, and his hands trembled. Alice noticed this small detail. This made her wonder if she shouldn't have asked this.

Alfred just sighed at Alice's question and said.

"As you know, we martial artists use Life Energy to cultivate and become stronger."

Emily, on the side, snorted and muttered, "Yeah, also eating our hearts."

Alfred's brows twitched, but he didn't say anything. Because he couldn't refute her, it was indeed the truth. So, ignoring her statement, he continued.

"There are rare cases when people are born with innate talents or special physiques which help them grow quickly and become stronger."

"That was also the case for Shin. He has a special body. But we don't know what it is called or its use. The only thing we found was that his body automatically absorbs the Life Energy from the surroundings and refines it. The Life Energy accumulated inside his body and created Life Essence overtime."

"Because of the immense amount of Life Energy inside him which was already purified into Life Essence, everyone assumed that his future potential was limitless. They just had to wait for his coming of age when Shin can start practicing martial arts and tap into the vast amount of Life Energy inside his body and become a strong martial artist."

"But there was a problem. Normally when children are taught since childhood they can tap into Life energy inside them by the age of 10."

"But Shin, who was considered a genius, couldn't access the vast amount of Life Energy inside him even when he was 13 years old. Which raised people's suspicions."

"Slowly, as time passed, Shin's image of a genius became a ridicule in the mouth of clan members. Everyone who praised him before started to debunk him without hesitation. Since he couldn't start cultivating Life energy, he was considered a thrash, a cripple"

As Alfred continued speaking, Reina's eyes were already red, remembering the past and the treatment Shin suffered.

Alice's grip on Shin's arm tightened. But she didn't show her emotions on the surface and quietly listened.

"Even my father Nicholas, who had high expectations of Shin, became disappointed. At least, at that time, I thought he was just disappointed. But I was mistaken."

Alfred had a self ridiculing expression on his face when he said that.I think you should take a look at

"Later, I found out that he never even considered Shin as a human anymore. For him, he was just a broken tool."

"Only a few people from the branch family who had a close relationship with me didn't ridicule him, nor did they support us. They all remained neutral."

Shin remembered all those events, he also remembered that Alfred and Reina weren't the least bit disappointed in him. They always loved him.

In his normal education, Shin was at the top of the class. But in cultivation, he couldn't even be a beginner.

But they never cared about that and always supported him.

"Because of Shin's inability to cultivate, Reizer started putting pressure on us."

"From cultivation resources to many of our rights. Slowly, we were alienated from the other clan members, too. But my father Nicholas never stopped him and just ignored us."

"Just when Shin was 14 years old, we had already stopped living in the clan and settled in Aston City. Shin didn't have a problem integrating with the normal students as his education was already quite ahead of others."

"Even if he couldn't be a martial artist. Shin did his best to live a normal life as an ordinary teenager. He made friends and did great in his studies."

"Everything was going well."

When Alfred said that, Reina was already on the verge of crying.

"It was four years ago when we got an invitation to a family gathering from Reizer."

"Although we didn't want to go, my mother said that it was my father who wanted to meet us. I couldn't understand why would that man want to meet us. But I was a fool who, under my mother's urging, decide to go with Reina and Shin."

"At the gathering, my father Nicholas called me and Reina to talk about something and asked Shin to wait outside."

"Although I knew that Shin was ridiculed in the clan for being a waste. The thought that they could hurt him never crossed our minds. After all, no matter how cruel to others, I thought at least to the family they wouldn't be like them."

"My mother on the side was excited as that was the first time after many years that he called us to have a talk face to face. But her excitement wasn't for long when he declared that he banished us from the clan and we are no longer part of it."

"When my mother heard this, she was heartbroken. In anger, I left with Reina. Swearing that I would never want to be part of this clan. But my mother pleaded with me to not leave Wolner's surname as we left her there crying and weeping."

"I thought it was for the better." Suddenly, Alfred's expression became dark as huge pressure emerged from his body.

"But when I came outside, I found Shin's bloodied body lying on the ground full of wounds and a deep hole in his chest."
