The next morning, the bunker was unusually quiet.Katina and her men had finished preparing their equipment. Weapons were checked, ammunition secured, and supplies packed into their bags. Gerald was ready as well, dressed in his tactical gear with a rifle strapped across his back.Just as they were about to leave, Gerald stopped.“Wait.”Katina turned. “What?”“You’re leaving three of your men behind.”Katina immediately frowned. “No. I need every man I have. This journey is dangerous enough already.”Gerald folded his arms. “And this bunker is important. If Raphael discovers it while we’re gone, Janet, Hannah, and Erens will have almost no protection.”“I’ll be left with fewer men,” Katina argued. “You understand how dangerous this mission is?”Gerald smirked. “Well, you have me.”Katina stared at him for a moment before scoffing.“I don’t care who gifted you this bunker or how powerful you think you are. The moment we encounter real scavengers, you’ll understand just how dangerous t

Serena reached home very late at night. She pushed open the door quietly, expecting the family to already be asleep. She was shocked to see everyone sitting in the living room with their eyes glued to the TV.The atmosphere was heavy, thick, vibrating with tension.Serena stepped forward slowly. “What… happened?”No one answered. So she turned to the large TV screen. And then she saw it.The news headline flashed: BREAKING: CHARLES TAKEN BY THE PROSECUTOR — NEW EVIDENCE FOUNDSerena’s breath caught as the female reporter appeared on the screen, her voice sharp and dramatic.“This just in. Prosecutors have officially taken Charles into custody after uncovering a shocking piece of evidence: a secret recording allegedly capturing the very moment he murdered Mr. Eden.“The recording, recovered from a hidden device inside Mr. Eden’s room, contains audio matching Charles’ voice during the killing.”The reporter paused, shaking her head in disgust.“At this point, authorities say there is

On their way home, the car was quiet for a while. Empty and calm after everything that had happened.Lizzy was the one who finally broke the silence.“You really did the impossible,” she said, eyes still on the road. “Tell me honestly. How were you able to go into the Hole Realm and come back alive with the Kyoul Stone?”Natasha leaned forward from the back seat immediately. “Yeah. I’m curious too.”Charles exhaled and began telling them everything. He narrated the entire journey, from the two border monsters, to the desert filled with creatures, to the cave, the serpent, and the realm spirit that guided him. He explained how Aries helped him after he spared the guards and how the realm itself wasn’t chaos, but a place where monsters lived peacefully and only reacted to invasion.It took a long time to tell. The story almost covered the entire journey.Lizzy shook her head in disbelief. “So an unknown spirit helped you just because you didn’t kill the guardians.”Charles nodded. “Yea

The seven men stopped their snow bikes as they stared at the massive structure standing in the distance.Raphael frowned deeply as his eyes moved over the bunker. Its enormous walls rose from the frozen landscape, reinforced with thick steel and concrete. Floodlights illuminated the surrounding snow, while the towering entrance and fortified exterior made the entire place look more like a military fortress than a simple shelter.For several seconds, Raphael said nothing.One of his men slowly removed his helmet and stared in amazement. “Boss... look at that. It’s incredible. How can someone build something this magnificent out here?”Raphael’s expression remained cold, but his eyes narrowed.He recognized the location.“This...” he muttered.His mind immediately went back to the cave Gerald had purchased before the apocalypse. Back then, Raphael had considered Gerald a useless fool who had wasted his money on an isolated piece of land in the middle of nowhere.But now, that same locat

Everyone at the table stared at Katina in surprise.Gerald raised his eyebrows and let out a low whistle. “Wow. That’s exceptional. Your father is the General Commander, and you’re the Superintendent of the Third Division. That’s quite the position.”Katina gave a small nod. “Yes.”“But why were those scavengers chasing you?” Gerald asked.Katina sighed before explaining. “Ever since the apocalypse began, people have been looting military facilities for weapons. They’ve been stealing rifles, ammunition, explosives, and even sophisticated military equipment. Some groups have become heavily armed because of it.”Everyone listened quietly.“So, headquarters deployed different divisions to visit military facilities across the country, recover the remaining weapons and equipment, and return everything to headquarters. We were assigned to one of those operations.”“And it was going well until you ran into those scavengers?” Gerald asked.“Exactly,” Katina replied. “We had just finished reco
Chapter 199
Erin's head spun as his legs trembled, not from the cold of the raging river he could barely hear anymore, but from what his son had just done.He had called this strange man his father and was holding onto his shirt tightly. Erin wasn't even wearing a helmet, so his son should have recognized him. He was staring directly at him, but the boy didn't seem to notice him at all.The strange man hugged him. “Son, we will be okay. The rescuers are here.”Erin was still lost in the devastating thought when his senior shouted at him, “Hey! What are you waiting for? The water is rising!”Instantly, Erin sprang into action. He rushed toward them and found a large towel lying on one of the nearby chairs. He threw it at Liana, who quickly wrapped it around herself. With that, they made their way out.Meanwhile, the roof was soaked and beginning to collapse. As it creaked loudly, Erin looked up and saw it falling.“Watch out!”Instantly, he pushed Liana out of the way and covered Adam with his bod
