As I laid my body across the door, becoming the target, four hyenas swiftly bit me - my stomach, my legs, my arms, and my shoulder. However, within 0.2 seconds to 0.8 seconds of their contact, I managed to store each of them away into my storage space. The longer I hesitated, the more their fangs threatened to tear into my flesh. Regrettably, I still found holes in my bodies, which resulted in a wound and some bleeding. As they suddenly vanished into my space storage, there was an empty gap in the door that they had propped open earlier. I used that moment to push the rolling door down hastily before the dozen of outside hyenas could lunge at me. The new hyenas hit the door while I was rolling it down, yet they couldn't squeeze through the small gap and had to retreat. Finally the door sealed perfectly as I quickly locked it, but because of my blood on the floor, I could still hear the hyenas outside, clawing and biting at the door, trying to destroy it. Ignoring the pain in my arms

Upon awakening from a lengthy dream, I was enveloped in a profound sense of rejuvenation. My body, once weary, now felt warm and light, reminiscent of basking in the embrace of a tranquil, revitalizing river. The sensation was so vivid, I could almost hear the gentle rush of water in my ears.Upon awakening, a comforting warmth, accompanied by a feeling of human connection reminiscent of the first rays of dawn on a chilly winter morning, embraced both my right and left sides.‘Someone is at my side.’I opened my eyes and found Ava and Eva. They were using me as their bolster pillow, their peaceful faces inches from mine.My gaze drifted to the ceiling of the supermarket, high above and dappled with intermittent light. Some bulbs offed, while others shone steadily, casting a chessboard of shadows and light across the expanse. The air held a chill, a stark contrast to the warm cocoon we formed, shielded from the elusive sunlight that struggled to penetrate the large wall.The scent of A

For sixty long years in the future, the earth was plagued by the beasts and those people with extraordinary abilities turning into villains, their powers unleashing chaos upon the ordinary humans. The police, overwhelmed and underpowered, could only watch as these ability users reveled in their newfound dominance, enslaving the powerless human to fulfill their darkest desires.If you told the villains about the law, they would answer, "What law? I am the law." Morality suddenly reached its worst ever.Among all the evildoers, stood the 12 kings and queens of the villains from across the globe, infamous as the '12 Devils', originating from humanity yet wielding deeds and influence more sinister than the devil itself.These beings, hardly human anymore, spearheaded a life of catastrophe, their actions almost signaling an endorsement of the apocalypse. Their ruthless use of powers resulted in the death toll rising from hundreds of thousands to millions.Among the 12, one was particularly

[Pact is sealed]Before I subdued the hyena that struggled to bite the blacksmith, I surveyed the scattered guns, bullets, and knives across the floor. Methodically, I gathered them, securing each item within the confines of my spatial storage. The blacksmith may use these to attack me after I save him. Then, I touched the hyena which attacking him and placed it in the storage space.The blacksmith, injured and shaken, scurried away from my presence. Despite his haste, I could sense his abilities beginning to enter my back.The shooter, on the other hand, wore a mask of reluctance to make a deal with me and fear.Choosing to remain silent, I grasped his shaking hand firmly and severed his pinky finger with the knife. My voice was cold, devoid of emotion, as I issued my ultimatum, “If you refuse to strike a deal with me, I will continue to cut off your fingers, one every five seconds.”'Do I truly desire his ability?'‘No, not really. I just want to punish him for causing the deaths of

While navigating the deserted roads on my superbike, facing the wind blowing and the fresh air, you wouldn't believe how clear the air was after humans stopped using vehicles and industrial pollution ceased. Well, I know it's not something to brag about, but the air was truly fresh. I tapped into my overthinking ability, now enhanced to the point of simulating the thoughts of four individuals simultaneously.After my ability had been upgraded, most of my other abilities on my back had already exceeded 50% some even reached 80%, these allowed me to sustain my abilities for extended periods. I allocated each overthinking’s ability to a specific task: one acted as a mini-map, another managed the energy converter, a third maintained the link to the space storage, and the final one, focused on driving the superbike, with a bit mischievous thoughts of tonight's endeavors,Five months had passed since the initial onslaught, and the once-bustling streets lay abandoned, devoid of life. I harbo
