Coming of the Apocalypse Queen

In the year 2XXX, a blue meteor from outer space landed on Earth and signaled the dawn of the apocalypse. More than 60% of the population was wiped out by a mysterious disease. Plants and animals turned into mutants. People gained powers and abilities. The world and the government collapsed and turned into a world where only the strong is respected while the weak are doomed to die. Lilian Mo didn't have a good life during the apocalypse. She was reduced to being a possession of her fiancé and became his glorified bed warmer. He kept her locked up in his villa and rarely allowed her to go out, keeping her around as his pet that he took care of. Though it was considered a luxury to be able to eat three times a day and drink clean water in the apocalypse when all the water sources are contaminated, Lilian Mo sneered at this kind of life and escaped her confinement meeting people along the way and gaining an ability on her own. She found 'friends' during her journey and fought alongside them through life and death, only to be betrayed by them. Lilian Mo died tragically when she was pushed to a group of mutant animals by her so-called 'friend' whom she treated as a sister. When it seemed like everything was going to end for her, she opened her eyes and went back to her sixteen-year-old body, two months before the apocalypse. "The heavens have not forsaken me." Lilian Mo swore to grow stronger and take revenge on those that betrayed her trust. Lucky for her, she was reborn with the knowledge of the future and given her own special dimension. Her golden cheats allowed her to sail through the apocalypse without worrying about food or water. After waking up two months before the apocalypse, Lilian Mo decided to set her eyes on the people that wronged her. ▪▪▪ A story about a girl's journey to becoming stronger while trying to survive in the apocalyptic world and facing the man of her past. ▪▪▪ Reminding my readers that this book's rating is [No One 17 And Under Allowed] which means it contains mature content not suitable for young readers.

Weakling

When the three of them met up at the entrance, all carrying bags on their own, Lilian Mo nodded and gestured for them to take the lead.

She had already swiped most of the items into her space and almost left nothing to other people. Fortunately, it was quite dark so the other two did not notice what she was doing.

Lilian Mo handed the bags to Mizuki Rei.

"Go on ahead. I need to check something out."

"Momo, will you be okay?" Mu Qingqing asked worriedly.

"I'll be fine. Think of a codename for yourselves until I get back." Then she sauntered to the second floor without looking back.

Lilian Mo wasn't worried that the two would encounter any danger. She could not detect any mutants on the ground floor.

Because she managed to breakthrough to Rank Three in the span of two months, her senses and perception were sharper than most people and she could easily take on a small horde of ordinary mutants without using her abilities.

Most of the stores at the second floor were electronics. She swiped everything that she thought would be helpful. Gathering household tools and equipment as well as planks and metals were also on her list.

She found mostly mutant plants in the second floor and sliced through their kernels without breaking a sweat.

She didn't find any other resin which frakly, disappointed her.

Lilian Mo ran across the third floor and did the same. Clothing, tools, equipments, toiletries, and electronics, etc.

It was heartless of her to hoard everything but she never claimed to be a saint.

She only went back to meet up with her two teammates once she managed to raid the warehouse. It took her half an hour to do so. It can be said that her greediness knows no bounds.

When she came back, she could see the worried looks of the two but there was also another person standing by the car.

Feng Ran was trying to keep her calm. She was able to follow after the two kids and saw them entering the car. She noticed that they were filled with supplies and couldn't help but hope for the chance to join them so she could escape this place and also gain protection.

Even if they were youngsters, they were able to eliminate the mutant plants with ease.

Anyway, they were young children so maybe she could just exploit and dupe them. Feng Ran felt hope for the first time after being trapped in the mall.

However, her hopes were crushed by a cold sounding voice.

"Lady, my team and I are not interested in charity work. You can try your luck on others." Mizuki Rei said.

After knowing how Lilian Mo died, he also couldn't help but be wary of another person.

And since the time he heard how Mu Qingqing died, he became even more protected towards the girl and would not take kindly to anyone who was trying to take advantage of the girl's kindness.

"I'm not a bad person!" Feng Ran shouted.

"That's too bad since my team and I are a group of bad people." Lilian Mo suddenly made her presence known.

Three pair of eyes landed on her.

Lilian Mo pointed the dagger stained with black blood at Feng Ran.

"Especially me. I'm a very bad person." She had a sinister smile on her face when she said this. Seeing the tall and beautiful girl smiling so scarily while holding a dagger, Feng Ran felt weak and scared.

She trembled when Lilian Mo advanced forward.

"D..Don't come any closer!"

Lilian Mo tch'ed and opened the car's door. She went inside and started the engine.

Mu Qingqing and Mizuki Rei who were in the car stared at her with stiff expressions on their faces.

Lilian Mo started to drive.

Mizuki Rei sighed at her nonchalance.

"With the way you're sighing, people would think you're an old aged man. Have you thought of a codename already?" Lilian Mo asked.

"Momo, I want you to pick a codename for me." Mu Qingqing said, batting her eyelashes and trying to act cute. How unfortunate since Lilian Mo was immune to such attacks.

"Okay. Let's call you 'little girl.'"

"Momo!" Mu Qingqing said with disbelief. "Momo, you're not much older than me. Why do you keep calling me little girl?"

Mizuki Rei was the one who answered. "She died before so technically, Momo is mentally older than the two of us. I think.."

"Oh..." Mu Qingqing looked at Lilian Mo.

"But Momo, call me 'princess' or 'wife', it's definitely better than being called a little girl!"

Mizuki Rei once again felt jealous towards Lilian Mo. "Qingqing, call me husband and I'll call you wife."

Lilian Mo snorted. "Let's call you Ling instead. "

Mizuki Rei had a puzzled look as he heard this. "Why Ling?"

"It's short for weakling."

Mizuki Rei's face immediately turned beet red. How could this scary girl be so blunt and hateful? He has really lost some face infront of his fiancée.

"No way! Anything but that!"

"How about Den?"

"What's that?"

"It's short for burden. "

Mu Qingqing started to laugh at Lilian Mo's words while Mizuki Rei's expression was near black. He did not look happy. It didn't help that his own fiancé was laughing at him!

'This scary girl... has a poisonous tongue!'

Mizuki Rei stared at Lilian Mo with an unhappy gaze.

"Then what should we call you, huh?"

Mu Qingqing immediately spoke up. "Momo should be called Queen. My Momo is the best and my Momo is stronger and braver than anyone I know!"

Lilian Mo was actually planning to spout some random name as her codename, never thought this girl would pick one for her, saving her the trouble.

"Whatever you want. If it's only the three of us, we can call each other's name but infront of other people. We must use our codenames, got that?"

"Wait! Wait! Don't tell me you're actually going to call me using those stupid names?"

"I think Ling is good. Or would you prefer Denden?" Lilian Mo was actually feeling amused at how easy it was to rile Mizuki Rei. He was so short tempered that it was so easy to provoke him.

"No way!"

"Don't be picky. This name will serve you well. It'll remind you just how weak you are right now. So that every time I call you Ling, you'll be reminded of the fact that you aren't strong enough. That you lack strength and you need to grow stronger. Do you think you can protect Qingqing with the way you are right now?" Lilian Mo said in a serious tone, all humor gone from her voice.

Mizuki Rei froze. She has a point. If it were only him and Mu Qingqing facing those mutants and without Lilian Mo's warnings, they would have been injured or killed already.

He clenched his fists and silently nodded. He did need a constant reminder to be strong. This way, in the future, he would not hesitate to kill in order to survive.

His eyes stared forward with determination.

"Okay. Call me 'Ling' infront of others."

"Reirei! Are you sure?" Mu Qingqing said worriedly. "You're not mad at Momo, are you? Momo only said that for your sake.."

Mizuki Rei felt his heart breaking. His own fiancé was more worried about the scary girl compared to him!

Mizuki Rei smiled weakly. "Qingqing, I'm not mad. You can also call me Ling. This name will serve a purpose for me. If I can grow stronger by being constantly reminded that I'm weak then I don't mind it at all!"

Lilian Mo stared hard, not bothering to glance at them.

She was aware of how straightforward and direct she was, to the point that she would come off as cold but kindness has no place in the apocalypse.

Being ruthless is better than being weak.
