Trash in the Apocalypse

Dimensional storage?

It's not even an hour after the world changed, and Jun was already becoming used to seeing those unusual things. He only felt a slight shock when he finished reading the character screen.

When Jun was trying to comprehend and gain some understanding of the skills, a notification appeared on his view.

[You received the title, "Thug Life."]

Jun closed the notification screen and turned his head to Adrian. He was quietly staring at him as if waiting for something. Considering this guy's amicable attitude towards him and remembering the contents of the quest he just receives, he started to think that he should take this guy as one of his followers.

"You said you want to follow me, right? Then tell me who are you?" Jun said with a scowl. It could have been a normal conversation if he didn't try and experiment on what will happen if he used his [Threaten] skill.

Adrian's face became flushed, and it took him a second or two before he could muster a reply. "What I said earlier is true; my name is Adrian Santos. And if there's anything important that I need to tell you, it would be my 'job'. I'm a burglar, and I'm one of the best in this town. I'm also a good scout; I have experience as a look-out when I joined a group a few years ago."

Jun laughed out loud after hearing his story. His eyes that seemed uncertain earlier turned firm and absolute. Like if Adrian decided to back out, Jun wouldn't even give him a chance.

He stood in front of Adrian and bellowed, "Do you accept being my follower?"contemporary romance

[You sent an organization invite to someone. Waiting for the other party's reply. You can't send another invite to the same user, for 24 hours, if the other party declines the invitation.]

It seemed that a screen appeared in front of Adrian, as he gazed at nothing but was still moving his eyes as if he was reading something. He then answered, "Yes! Please take care of me, boss."

A small orb of light flew out from Jun and entered Adrian's body.

['Adrian' has accepted the organization invite and has become your follower. Your follower's receive 10% more EXP gain and an additional 10% increase in overall stats.]

"Okay, good. Of course, I will take care of you. You just need to follow my orders, and I will make sure that you will get rewarded properly."

Their festive mood got destroyed when a couple walked out of the storage room.

The two of them were wearing white lab coats, a shirt, and jeans.

The couple was surprised to find out that there were already people inside the clinic.

The kind-looking female approached first and gently said, "Hello there. Are you one of our customers? I'm sorry, but the doctor hasn't arrived yet. Are you willing to wait?"

She had a round, innocent-looking face that makes the opposite gender want to protect her. Her looks were average, but her gentle attitude makes strangers speak comfortably towards her.

"Sheila, come back here!"

The man who was following behind her abruptly pulled her hands. He had a fearful glint in his eyes.

"Carlos! What are you doing? Let me go!"

When Sheila yelled at him, he immediately released her hands. He then glared at the two unwelcomed visitors.

Carlos was courting Sheila for almost two months now. Sheila graduated from a nursing school but worked at the clinic, as this was her family's business.

The two of them met in this clinic when Carlos needed medical certificates for his job. He fell in love at first sight, but it didn't seem to be the case for Sheila. In those two months, she repeatedly rejected him, telling him that she just broke up with her boyfriend, and she's currently not interested in relationships.

As if his manly ego got challenged, Carlos kept coming to the clinic. He gave flowers and brought gifts every day after he left work, but Sheila remained unmelting, not entertaining his advances.

Today, he was going to force an answer from her.

When he arrived at the clinic earlier, there were still no customers in sight, and so he locked the door. If he got rejected, he was planning to at least get some 'benefits' from her.

He saw Sheila enter the storage room, and he hastily followed. He found Sheila counting medicine stocks after he entered the room. Before he could approach her, he felt a severe headache and fell unconscious.

When he woke up, he saw Sheila on the floor, still unconscious. He quickly moved to her side and checked if she was okay. Sheila got startled, seeing a man after waking up. When she saw that it was Carlos, she got flustered and quickly tried to leave the room, but Carlos pulled her back.

He slowly put his hand around her waist and started kissing her. She struggled in his arm and couldn't do anything, finally softening after Carlos' other hand roamed her body.

A scene that shouldn't happen happened.

Sheila then left the room without giving a single glance at Carlos.
