I Spread my Genes to Level Up in the Apocalypse

Chapter 28: Vanessa's Arrogance



"Hey, bastards, are you guys ignoring me?" the woman's brows twitched.

"Yes," Ray casually stated.

"If King finds out, then all you guys are dead, including your family."

"Oh, I see, is the King going to kill me in the afterlife?" Ray spoke.

"You… Did you really kill the King?" the woman's voice choked, her gaze gradually turning furious.

"You love the man?"

"Of course I do. He was my only support in this world," she said with conviction.

"He shouldn't have died, even though I was about to kill him." Ray slowly walked up to the woman with slow footsteps.

The woman's face immediately brightened when she heard this. "Really, King is not dead?"

However, the next moment she saw Ray, who was just centimetres away from her.

"You…" Before she could say a single word, Ray's hand seemingly materialized out of thin air, and her vision went blank as she fell to the ground, completely unconscious.

Ray casually lifted her onto his shoulder.

"Let's hurry up and collect all the resources before we leave."

"Okay." Gina obediently started to pack all the food and followed Ray.

Ray and his entourage soon headed towards his apartment.

As he was about to enter, Grace had already come out and was looking at the girls behind Ray with a speechless expression.

"I can explain," Ray raised his hand.

"Hmph," she pouted.

"We can't even fit all these people here."

"It's fine. Evelyn and Vanessa can stay with us, and the others can stay in the lower floors," Ray quickly made the calculation.

"Would that be fine, Grace?"

"When did I become your little Grace?" Grace retorted almost immediately with anger, but this anger seemed endearing to Ray.

"Hey, hey, let's go inside and I will explain in detail."

With that said, Ray allocated places for the girls before he took Evelyn and Vanessa to his floor.

"You girls stay here and wait for my further instructions." Ray gave a simple order, which all the girls obeyed.

When Ray arrived inside the home, Grace almost jumped at him.

"Hey, easy there." Ray chuckled with a light smile while taking the french kiss, their tongues dancing in a symphony without a care of the on-lookers fighting for dominance.

Evelyn and Vanessa looked at this scene with wide eyes.

After a long time, when Ray felt like Grace was out of breath, he released her.

When he did, Grace hurriedly gasped for air while looking at Ray with resentment.

"What did you do that for?"

"Weren't you the one who came to kiss me?" Ray said with a chuckle.

"Hmph," Grace looked at the two women.

"Are you going to take them both in or eat them one at a time?"

"I am surprised that you are being so proactive about it," Ray said, raising his brows.

"I already know your lecherous nature anyway," Grace pouted while Freya nodded in agreement.

"I am doing it to revive humanity. How would you know my great sacrifice, woman?" Ray said with a straight face.

Grace was speechless. "There needs to be a limit to how shameless a person can be…"

Ray crossed his arms like a proud man. "You have to learn shamelessness if you want to be great."

"I am too lazy to argue with you," Grace rolled her eyes. "Let's go, Freya."

"Alright, big sis Grace." Freya smiled, walked up to Ray, gave his cheek a light peck, and went away, leaving him stunned.

Ray watched the backs of the two women, his lips curling into a smile as he touched his face, feeling the sensation.

He then turned his attention to the two other women whose gazes seemed complicated.

"What is it?" Ray asked.

"Are we really going…?" Evelyn was the first to speak.

Although she had already guessed Ray's intention before, she wasn't stupid.

This was the apocalypse where rule and order had collapsed.

What could any person gain from rescuing a bunch of weak women?

But hearing Grace state it so bluntly still shook her mind.

Her gaze gradually turned wary as she looked at him, but there was not much resistance in her mind.

There was a key difference between King and Ray.

King always treated women as tools and controlled them like an insecure person, even if they showed value.

Ray, on the other hand, was different.

The women with him were perfectly fine and healthy, showing that he treated them better.

With no apparent damage to their bodies and even the mood to joke around, the difference was clear.

"The thing about doing it... I'm not ready yet," Evelyn said tentatively.

Vanessa remained entirely silent without speaking for a long while.

Ray walked up to Evelyn and whispered some words which made her blush while giving him a glare.

"So, is it decided?"

"Yes," Evelyn could only helplessly nod to him.

"What about you, Vanessa?" Ray looked at the pink-haired girl.

"Umm, let's talk about these things later. We have just met and didn't have much interaction, so…"

"Later? It's better to do it earlier than later," Ray said with a serious face.

"But... but..." Vanessa had a hesitant expression.

"What but?" Ray scowled.

"I will..." she put her head down, her expression unknown.

"Is it because you were previously a celebrity, that's why?" A sneer appeared on Ray's face.

Vanessa's body trembled as if agreeing to it.

Before the end, these so-called social influencers were celebrity figures, and naturally, some of them had pride ingrained in their bones.

Of course there were some good appled however the bad apples always outnumbered the good ones.

It was natural to have it, and a million followers was a lot compared to Ray, who was pretty much unknown, wasting his life on video games before he went into the military.

Vanessa still didn't have the mentality of the apocalypse, so she naturally didn't want to do it with Ray, especially since she had no experience in it and found it beneath her to stoop so low.

In the end, it was her arrogance; she subconsciously thought Ray was not worthy of her.
