Thirty minutes later, after Sheila left the scene.
"Do you rember what happened?"
"Ugh... I only rember that I was going to go to grocery shop... to buy so milk but midway.. I don't rember..anything other than waking up...with bruises over my bloody body."
An officer asked the question to the man who was now covered with bandages all over his body. The man answered back while groaning in pain from ti to tis. The officer nodded his head as he listens to the man and noted it down on his notebook before excusing himself and walked away.
"By the look of your face, it's the sa, huh?"
His colleague said when the officer gets in the car. The officer, Max, could only sigh in defeat as he nodded his head.
"It's already the fourth victim, and we still didn't find any clue of the culprit..."
Just like what his colleague said, the previous three dead victims didn't leave any clue behind. Now that they found a victim that survived against the pyschopath murder, Max had thought that he would finally manage to get on the tail, but Max and his colleagues were disappointed.
The pyschopath is too cunning and ruthless. Max couldn't let such dangerous criminal roaming around the street full of weak civilians. He has been taking quite a lot of his free ti to resolve the case before it gets any worse than this, but with no clue, he couldn't get anywhere. His family missed his presence in the house, and his cute daughter keeps on pestering his wife on his whereabouts.
After a few weeks passed with no result, the case was put to close. Max let out a relieved sigh as he thought, I'm coming ho now, my little honey.
But what he didn't expect was for this 'psychopath murder' case to not be the last one. When that happened, he could be seen complaining about how he didn't have enough ti to spend with his family, but that was for the future.

"I'm ho!"
"Welco ho, did you bought everything that I told you?"
"Yes, I did."
Sheila slowly walks to the kitchen, and when she arrived, She left the bag of groceries on the dining table before going upstairs to her bedroom.

Sheila nodded her head when she looked at the skill window on her phone. With the skill, she noticed a few things that give her quite a shock.
Mana, a supernatural power/force that people of modern often believes only to exist in a supernatural world such as a fantasy or their imagination. It is like Ki which exists sowhere inside the human's body.
Sheila also believes as such, but the mont she left the Trial Tower right after the lottery, she was surprised to sense that there was mana in her surrounding albeit little. It was the world that she believes to be realistic! How could a supernatural force such as mana to exist?! Her worldview was overturned right at that mont.
When she saw the green creature back then, she was very much surprised. She had thought she was suddenly getting 'isekai-ed' to a fantasy world, but the sa scenery(of the building of bricks) told her otherwise. She was currently restless and worried that perhaps, she had gotten into so kind of big wave along the way without any of her knowledge. The big wave that might potentially bring calamity to her world, Sheila shuddered, and she could feel chills running through her whole body.
A world filled with crimson fire. Everything burns and the only remain is ashes. Monster wreck havoc here and there, bloody and grueso corpses could be seen everywhere around the street. People hide in the underground while despairing how cruel the world has beco. The modern weapon is useless against the monster that is a league above. Dragons flew in the sky freely with no restraint and sotis breath a mouthful of fire to the ground, leaving it blackened filled with ashes. Before long, a giant hand rush toward her and—
"No!"
Sheila shouted in despair at such world-ending scenery, only to realized it was just a dream. Before she knows it, she had fallen asleep and got such a nightmare which woke her up with covered in sweats all over her body. The dreams feel so real and lucid as if sothing is giving her a warning that this could perhaps be her future.
After taking a few deep breaths and drinking a mouthful of cold water, Sheila managed to calm down her furiously beating heart.
"I have to level up!"
Only by getting stronger could she protect herself against the dangerous future. The nightmare might be a dream caused by the fear inside of her running wild, but she couldn't completely ignore it either. But before she enters the Trial Tower, she needs to take a bath to clean off the sweat.

Private Hotel, Fifth-Floor, Room 3.
"...is this fine?"
The woman muttered softly to no one but only herself in the room. Her beautiful outer appearance indicated her age to be in 3X. She has a pretty brownish eye with a smooth, silky black hair and mature facial.
"It's fine. It's the only path that I could take for a better future."
The frown on her beautiful face diminished a little at the word, better future. Although her future is already bleak and white, that girl still has a chance to change the future. The raging power inside of her cald at the thought.
After calming down herself, the woman takes a sip of wine as she looked into the mirror in front of her. What was shown in the mirror was, a girl that has just woken up from so sort of nightmare which could be seen simply by gazing at her face.
If soone doesn't know who she is, they would have thought that the woman was the mother of the girl inside the mirror due to how their face shockingly almost looks identical like that of a copy.
