Is it Wrong to Copy Abilities in Apocalypse?

However, everything changes when one clicks their trigger point.

Goblins work in groups, and they group up with their friends or family, so if you kill someone from their group, you should be ready to face some raging goblins.

That\'s what happened when Ridha killed one of the goblins.

In a fit of anger and adrenaline rush, she marched forward to kill the goblin, but now that she was back to normal, and she could see things clearly….

"Kreeeeeeeekkkkkkk!" X2

Her eyes widened when she heard the screams right next to her.

\'There were more of them!\'

She never thought about it, or she did before the adrenaline came rushing to her head.

"Shit!"

"Be careful!"

But before she could think of something, she heard Rohit\'s yell filled with urgency.

Then she saw it…

All the goblins in her surroundings were now looking at her with a hungry expression, while the one in front of her had already lunged at her.

"What?!"

But just as she tried to move, she realized something….

"I can\'t move my body!"

She yelled in panic.

Ridha just realized that her body was paralyzed on its spot.

Still, she tried to move, using all of her willpower...

\'Move, dammit!\'

She could see everything clearly….

The hungry and lustful looks on the goblins\' faces, the anger in their eyes, and lastly…..

"Noo!!!!"

She screamed in panic as she saw the rising tents at the only place where these goblins wore clothing.

\'Move, move, move! Please move!\'

She cried inwardly.

She, who didn\'t like the way goblins looked at her, was now crying in despair.

She knew what would happen if she didn\'t move.

The goblins\' expression, their rising tents, and their eyes gave it all out.

Those looks, however, chilled Ridha\'s soul.

\'I would rather die!\'

Ridha\'s eyes were filled with tears as she saw a goblin\'s hand just about to touch her, but just then, she felt her finger move….

\'I can move!\'

She cheered inwardly, her eyes lighting up with hope.

She quickly tried to dodge the goblin\'s hand, but….

"Wha…."

Her mind went blank as she saw the ground closing in toward her eyes.

Ridha\'s body, which she thought was ok to move, was still paralyzed with the poison in the goblin\'s knife.

Her strong willpower allowed her to move a bit, but all she managed was a single step.

That single step didn\'t help her; instead, it broke her momentum, causing her to fall to the ground.

\'Please god, save me….\'

Ridha\'s eyes desperately asked for the god to help her.

But before she could complete her words….

"KYAAAAAAAAAA!!"

She cried out in panic, horror, denial, and disgust.

"HELP ME!!"

She let out a desperate shriek for help, hoping or wishing that someone would help her as she felt the goblin clawing her body and tearing her dress apart.

Her stomach churned, and her eyes started watering.

Ridha was on the ground, face fast. So she couldn\'t see it, but she could feel everything much better than before.

Her whole body was shivering with disgust and dread.

"PLEASE!! SOMEONE! ANYONE!!"

She screamed frantically, as her teeth started clattering in fear.

*Tear*

"...."

Ridha\'s eyes went as wide as they could….

\'Did they just….\'

The sound of tearing off the clothes, the tension she felt over her body, the sensation of wind hitting her bare flesh, and the feeling of those disgusting hands made her realize what happened.

"NOOO!!! PLEASE, STOP!!!"

She tried to thrash her hands, she tried to move away, but she couldn\'t.

"KILL ME!! I DON\'T WANT THIS!! JUST KILL ME-"

Ridha cried out desperately.

She just wanted to die now; she didn\'t want to live. Not to be sullied by those hands, and not to see or feel what was going to happen next.

She was crying, regretting the action she took on impulse. Her lips were bleeding because of the force she used to bite her lips.

Blood seeped from the corner of her lips as she bit her tongue, desperately trying to kill herself.

But her yell was cut short when she felt something…..

..................…

(Some time ago.)

"I can\'t move my body!"

The moment Rohit heard Ridha\'s panicked scream; he realized why Ridha wasn\'t running away from her spot.

\'What should I do?!\'

As someone from the army, he wasn\'t very fond of letting people die when there was a chance that he would be able to save them.

All he wanted to do was rush forward and save her, but….

\'They\'re all moving toward her…\'

Rohit saw that the goblins were now moving toward Ridha, and their intentions weren\'t anything good.

It was as clear as day.

The lust in their eyes and the way they touched their groins were enough for Rohit to make out their intentions.

\'I would be fine if it were one or two, but….\'

Rohit gritted his teeth, realizing how weak he was in this new world.

With his armed training and elevated stats, he was sure that two goblins wouldn\'t be a problem for him.

But facing so many of them together was not really a good idea….

The next instant, however, his eyes brightened as he thought of something.

"Everyone! We should move ahead, all together and go help her!

We can take the goblins by surprise!

They won\'t even…. know...."

Rohit enthusiastically told them his plan, but his eyes went dim and his voice died down as he noticed the look in everyone\'s eyes….

None of their eyes seemed to agree with his words…

Some did, but that number won\'t do any good in front of that many goblins.

"... Guys."

Rohit tried to call out to everyone, but some just frowned, while others just avoided eye contact.

"It was her fault for trying to go all by herself!"

But someone suddenly let out their thoughts.

No one knew who it was but then…

"Yeah, it was her fault!"

Another guy agreed with a frown.

"We can try, but we need a plan…."

A woman who, just like Ridha, wanted to kill those goblins tried to speak, but another guy cut her words.

"Don\'t you see their numbers?"

The crowd went silent after that.

Some wanted to help, but they couldn\'t just rush forward; there were not many after all.

Then there were those who were against it, they simply didn\'t want to take risks.

But the majority just wanted to stay out of it….

It\'s human nature. Whenever they see something that they can\'t do anything about, they back away.

Rohit, who saw all this and listened to their words, was at a loss. All he wanted to do was make them move.

They were going to face the same goblins once they were done with Ridha, but they still didn\'t want to go forward and save that girl.

The next second, however, he caught sight of the lady who had tried to stop Ridha before.

Earlier, she said that she wanted to kill the goblins as well. She said that she knew how Ridha felt, so Rohit thought that maybe she would agree with his view.

"Hey…. Lady…"

He hesitantly called out to her.

He was hesitant because the moment he called her; everyone\'s eyes were on them.

He knew this would happen.

Now, if the lady acknowledged his words, then the majority would come along.

"You want to help her….. right?"

Rohit asked with hope in his voice.

He already saw her avoiding his eyes, so he had the answer already, but he still had hope….

"I did try to stop her before…."

That hope was crushed the moment that lady muttered those words while averting her eyes.

Many people in the group sighed in relief.

She wanted to save Ridha, and so did the others.

No normal human would love to see another die, but were they willing to risk their lives for it?

Nope.

Even though Rohit looked like a very good guy, he himself wasn\'t willing to do it, or he would\'ve run to save Ridha, no matter what others did.

This was an apocalypse, and this is where the real face of every human is revealed.

But again, it was an apocalypse, a fantasy apocalypse, and there were many things out there that could kill humans, and one of those was the system….

"PLEASE!! SOMEONE! ANYONE!!"

Ridha\'s scream, which was heard by them all, was still audible. But as the humans just averted their eyes, ignoring Ridha\'s pleas, something happened...

The system sent them a short message, or a warning, to be exact...
