《Unparalleled Appearance: She is the Last with Divine Power in a Universal War》Intruders
Advertisement
In the kitchen.
Rose was cutting vegetables with one hand while she was seasoning a juicy cut of meat with the other hand.
She was in a very good mood because of Lanaery.
As she cooked, she was thinking about what Lanaery had told her about her being from another world.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
Suddenly, a very loud sound was heard coming from the front door.
It was very similar to someone trying to break down a door to break in. Rose's happy expression instantly disappeared.
She frowned and thought nervously about what to do.
But remembering Lanaery on the second floor, she took a deep breath and decided to face what was coming at her as long as she could protect her.
This might not have been the best decision for her, considering how weak she was. Even so, she would never abandon a defenseless person who had no malice towards her.
Anyway, she already had in mind who was causing those blows.
Without wasting another second, she entered a room on the first floor that had a small black container on top of a square floating table.
Bang!
With this in her hands, she arrived just as the door was kicked down.
She clearly saw that it was those three young men who had been taking money from her every two or three days for the last week.
"Oh? Great, I thought it was necessary to look for you in this ugly mansion."
The young man in the middle said with a mischievous smile. The funny thing was that his face was a little swollen and red.
The same thing happened with the other two young men.
"You know, your money is good and all. But it's time to fulfill our mission."
"We really should have kidnapped you from the beginning..."
This young man radiated resentment as he recalled the humiliation he suffered an hour ago.
An hour before they showed up at Rose's mansion, the three of them were on their knees with dark expressions as they stared at a young man with dark blond hair and red eyes.
They seemed to be in a big office with all kinds of technological products around.
This blonde-haired youth with an icy gaze spoke with an unquestioning tone of voice.
"I gave the three of them an incredibly easy mission. They just had to kidnap that girl abandoned by the Hesdia family."
"But it's been a week, and I don't see any results."

The young man, who seemed to be the leader of the three, said with an apologetic and nervous expression, "B-boss Isaiah, we promise that if you give us a chance, we'll bring that girl in an hour without a hitch."
Isaiah, this was the name of the blond-haired young man. He was one of the geniuses of the Ward family.
His family loved him so much that they gave him control of the family business in Brilliant City.
With his eyes so cold that it seemed as if he would freeze these young men, Isaiah Ward said, "Lucas Green... I really expected more from the genius of the Green family. Who would have known that you were just an incompetent person? That you only care about money..."
"Did you think I hadn't found out that you were going to the virtual reality center with the money you took from that girl from the Hesdia family?"
"No wonder your family stopped giving you money because instead of using it for something useful in rainbow portals, you just use it to play VR games."
With a pale face, Lucas Green, who was the young man in the middle, looked panicked at the ground.
"Because your family decided to be a subordinate family of my Ward family. I will give you one more chance."
Isaiah looked at the other two young men, who didn't say anything, and continued speaking, "You're lucky that Lucas Green treats you like friends. If it wasn't for that, both you two and your pathetic unranked families would have ceased to exist by now."
"Thank you so much for being so magnanimous and kind!"
The two young men thanked Isaiah without daring to meet his eyes.
"Hmm, now before you go, do the minimum punishment for failing a mission."
"After that, immediately bring that girl."
"Yes!"
The three responded, and with their palms, they began to hit each other in the face for five minutes until Isaiah signaled for them to stop.
Finally, when they finished their punishment.
The three of them walked out of the office under Isaiah's calm gaze.
"I already gave them the money they wanted. Why do they want to kidnap me?"
Rose asked with a frown.
"Ah... Let's just say we'll get more money from your body. You know, maybe some pervert will give us a lot of money for you."
"You guys!"

She yelled at them furiously, unable to bear their anger any longer.
Silently, she was sending her mental energy into the small container in her hand.
"Enough wasted time."
"Attack!"
At Lucas Green's command, the three of them took out three small silver containers from their pockets and crushed them with their hands.
These containers turned into a silvery powder as if they were a large amount of gray-colored sand.
Instantly, this gray sand combined and formed three robotic creatures from the Felidae family. Although, their resemblances were closer to that of a tiger.
Rgrgr!
Rgrgr!
Rgrgr!
The three of them roared as if they were real animals.
Woosh!
Without hesitation, the three robotic creatures charged at Rose, who was only a few dozen meters away.
But before they could get any closer to her. Rose also crushed the small container in her hand.
Roar!
In less than a second, a robotic lizard-shaped creature was formed!
Bang!
With its long tail, it attacked the three robotic creatures, preventing them from getting close to Rose.
On the other side, Lucas Green frowned a bit. But taking a good look at Rose's robotic creature, he sneered, "I thought you had summoned a really scary Kryon, but it's just a low-ranking, imperfect Kryon."
"What trash! Just like her owner, haha!"
These words caused Rose to look with concern at the robotic lizard-like creature Lucas Green named Kryon.
------------------
A moment before all this happened.
Lanaery was disappointed that she didn't find anything that had divine power on the second floor, so she was thinking of going to the first floor.
Bang!
Suddenly, she heard several loud noises coming from the first floor.
She didn't pay attention to him at first. But these sounds had already gotten much louder.
She used her newly acquired divine power and enhanced her hearing, causing it to be even better than the ultrasound waves that bats emitted.
In just a second, she began to visualize what was happening, using the wind as her eyes.
Since the wind was generating a different sound as it crashed into three youths who had just knocked down the front door.
Lanaery saw Rose too. Suddenly, she noticed three figures with unfriendly shapes lunging at Rose!
Wooosh!
Without hesitation for a second.
Her body, being propelled by her divine power, became a blur due to the high inhuman speed at which she was moving!
The only thing left behind was a rapidly fading flash of light.
Upon reaching the first floor, Lanaery watched as a metallic lizard-like creature was ripped apart by three other metallic creatures.
She glanced quickly at Rose. Seeing that her body was intact, she was relieved.
"Suries!?"
Rose was surprised to see Lanaery suddenly appear.
"Oh?"
Lucas Green looked where Rose was looking.
"!"
He was instantly stunned and speechless at Lanaery's goddess-like appearance.
"I didn't expect you to hide such a treasure in this old mansion! If we take this girl too, the boss will spare us and may even give us a big reward!"
The other two young men nodded enthusiastically, still looking at Lanaery.
Rose, who was already nervous about the situation, was now extremely stressed!
She looked into the greedy eyes of the three youths, and with a look as if she was about to sacrifice herself, she said, "Suries, there is a door behind it. I will stop them. If you go to the forest, there is no way they will find you!"
Lanaery, upon hearing these words, began to see Rose differently. She knew that sacrificing herself to save someone else was a decision that few would make.
Because it took a lot of willpower and being a good enough person to sacrifice your life to save someone else.
This caused a beautiful smile to form on Lanaery's rosy lips.
"Quick, run away!"
Rose hurried.
"Haha, don't even think I'm going to let such a treasure get away from me!"
"Attack!"
Using their mental energy, the three young men order their Kryons to attack Lanaery.
"No!"
With Rose's expression of sadness and stress.
Lanaery just watched as everything moved slowly. She formed in her hand a small light sword made of divine power.
Then.
As if these Kryons were moving in a pool of honey that prevented them from moving quickly.
Slash!
She simply walked slowly, with great calm, and with her light sword, she cut off the heads of the three Kryons.
From the perspective of Rose, Lucas Green, and his two lackeys.
They watched as Lanaery disappeared and reappeared only five meters from Lucas Green.
Thud!
Thud!
Thud!
Behind her, the three Kryons, who hadn't advanced half a meter, fell to the ground with their heads rolling.
Both Rose and the three young men had their eyes wide open.

Sara's (not really) Fabulous System Armageddon, Book I: The World Ended at Rush Hour
Planet Earth, Monday, October 7th, 2019. 18:30 * * On a fateful day, during rush hour in eastern North America, Heavens and Hell crumbled and fell from their higher dimension on Earth. It came from "above" but not the same above we regard in our tridimensional Euclidean reasoning. No, it came from "above" as in from a higher dimension. Bits and pieces of those places fell on Earth from all directions, this time in tridimensional Euclidean space. Satellites, the ISS, and space debris all were wiped clean from orbit. Even those that didn't crash with the falling debris were knocked off orbit by the shockwaves. On the ground, power distribution lines were disrupted and most power facilities were left abandoned by their dead staff. Most of these had emergency shutdown routines that engaged in a few days. Some others had a survivor among their staff that followed protocol and activated their SCRAM switches, stopping the power plant. Long-distance communication disappeared the internet along with it. The world was plunged into technological darkness. Nine hundred and ninety-nine out of every thousand human beings perished immediately in the pulse of magical energy from the torn spatial boundary. Spirits were rent asunder and vanished, their fate neither salvation nor damnation, only oblivion. The criteria used for this culling was latent magic potential. It didn't discriminate against education, gender, age, or ethnic group. But of the around seven million survivors, most would meet their doom moments later. Those on moving vehicles, like the ones driving on highways suddenly had to contend with high-speed uncontrolled cars and trucks driven by corpses. Trapped in their vehicles and helpless, they became part of the long snake of crushed metal. Very few survived. Those in the air or out in the sea were alone and probably unable to control their rides. Airplanes crashed, and ships kept their course or drifted away, depending on their autopilot. Several ended their own lives in utter despair after seeing their loved ones die in front of them. Another large group would die at the hands of other survivors. Violence and aggression became the norm. Only a few sparse pockets of not-so-sane survivors managed to band together and cooperate for the sake of mutual survival. The sole survivor in a five-over-one apartment building in Georgia, a girl became the keystone to humanity's survival. Sara's fabulous System Apocalypse had just started. She has only one remark. It was anything but fabulous. * * Updates every Wednesday and Sunday.
