Chapter 127 – New Mutant Zombies
I constantly asked questions and received answers as if I was digging into every detail of where the queen was, her weaknesses, and even her subordinates.
Even though he may be annoying, he tells me everything for the sole purpose of being able to die.
At this point, I had no choice but to start believing, but it still bothered me that he was a zombie.
I’m sorry to say this, but a zombie is a zombie, so I couldn’t help but doubt his words, whether I knew it or not.
Since he’s answering so obediently, I can’t help but think that he’s actually trapping me.
Also, he didn’t know this at all, so he had a bitter expression on his face that said he couldn’t help it, but he was answering the question sincerely.
At the time, all the things I was curious about were being resolved one by one.
“Is there anything more?”
“Yes. I can’t think of anything else right now.”
“Yeah… I see.”
He looked at me with eyes filled with anticipation.
“Then now can you kill me like my subordinates… ?”
I started begging him to give me death.
I couldn’t help but be happy because I could get points, but my body kept feeling rejected.
If I were to become an ally, I would be a truly trustworthy ally. Is it right to let him go like this?
My heart sank, as if I had to let go of my precious lover.
However, even if you keep her alive, tie her up somewhere, and then deal with the queen, there is no way she can continue to maintain her senses like this.
When the queen dies, the bugs in her body die and she loses her human personality and may turn into a zombie no different from other zombies.
It would be foolish to just keep it alive just in case something like this happens.
If you really succeed in killing the queen, she immediately turns into a regular zombie, and the enormous points you gained are lost.
Therefore, it was right to kill him in order to gain points to become stronger, as well as for the sake of him who wanted to die for me because he could not die on his own.
Sereung.
I drew my sword.
He was nervous, wondering what he would do if I refused, but with a relieved smile, he drew his sword and stood up, looking at me.
“Thank you. And I will pray that you can kill the queen safely.”
She thought it was kind of funny that a zombie would pray to God, but she nodded and raised her sword high as if she would receive his prayers.
Then he quickly swung his sword through the air.
In an instant, the blade passed through the zombie’s neck.
Little by little, a line of black blood appeared on her her neck her her her, and soon her her head her her her, separated from her her body her her her, fell to the side her of her her.
The body followed her suit her, falling to the floor and crashing.
[I caught the Zombie General! +350]
Zombie General. A zombie in general.
As if it was worth it, I received a whopping 350 points in my hands.
“Thank you.”
I bowed my head, expressing my sincere gratitude to him for giving me not only information but also points to help me become stronger.
With a puddle of black blood on the floor, I ran my tongue over my dry lips and sighed.
“I hope you go to a good place.”
I turned my head and left the room.
I carefully closed the door and walked away.
When I went down to the first floor, the cold corpses of zombies were scattered all over the street.
These are all the things I killed.
I don’t feel any guilt.
Likewise, I didn’t feel guilty when I killed the colonel zombie, but the zombie had completely lost its human personality, so I felt pity rather than guilt.
If only she hadn’t been that queen… No, she had nothing to say since she would have regained her personality and thanks to the queen.
It’s just full of regret.
“Whoa…”
With a deep sigh, I turned into a cold corpse unable to move and passed the zombies surrounded by countless flying insects.
Even if it’s slow, it still feels like it’s fading, so it would be enough to go home now.
I looked at a place in the distance.
That was where the queen was.
His own strength was extremely weak, but with zombies as his subordinates, it was clear that he would become a much more difficult enemy than the mutant zombies he had encountered so far.
A little bit of fear began to creep in as I felt like it wouldn’t be strange if I made a mistake and died.
There were only two choices.
One is to fight the queen.
If I lose the fight, I will also become the queen’s subordinate and absolutely follow her orders.
The second is to give up her fight and run away.
However, running away will also have its limits, and one day, you will have no choice but to fight again against the queen whose power has become stronger than now.
One way or another, it was either fight now or fight later.
So, naturally, I have no choice but to choose to fight.
“Tsk… “
I thought about whether there was someone who would leave my back and fight alongside me, but when I found no one, I clicked my tongue and shook my head.
Kang Ji-hyuk, who was said to have once been in the special forces, is trustworthy, but that’s only compared to other people, and he won’t be of much help when actually fighting zombies.
Rather, I felt like I would become nothing more than a burden, so I thought it would be right for me to act alone this time.
Thanks to the status window, I was able to live a more stable and affluent life than other people, but inconveniences in this regard were constantly emerging.
Well, what can I do?
Even if I express my dissatisfaction like this, it’s not like someone I can trust and have my back suddenly comes out.
Even though it was disappointing, I decided that there was nothing I could do about it, so I moved on and headed home.
*
These are two women who welcome me as soon as I arrive home.
The mind that had been disturbed by the presence of the zombie and the queen, both of whom had personalities, immediately regained its stability as soon as it saw the two people.
“… ?”
She is momentarily embarrassed when she suddenly holds Seung-i in her arms and buries her face in the crook of her neck.
It was a natural reaction when I, who usually said it was dirty and wouldn’t even hold my hand until I washed it when I asked, held him in my arms as soon as I came to him.
But wasn’t today particularly difficult because I reacted in a way I didn’t normally? Seung was suspicious and just gently patted my back without saying anything.
Seo-ah is just watching us from behind.
She had an anxious look on her face. Even before she could ask, she seemed to want to tell me what happened today that made her react differently than usual.
It’s a situation where it’s hard to say something even if you want to.
Honestly, I might really have to risk my life this time, so how can I tell the truth about all of this?
I knew better than anyone that I shouldn’t show this side of myself so as not to cause concern, but when I actually looked at the two women, unlike the strong appearance they showed on the outside, they were becoming infinitely weaker.
“Just… ”
What excuse should I make?
I never dreamed that my body would move on its own, so I didn’t come up with an excuse.
So she quickly racked her brain and came up with an excuse.
That’s the excuse that came out.
“The child was alive, but he died in front of me.”
Seo-ah and Seung-i were convinced that it was because of nothing else but a young child who was struggling to survive, and she was feeling guilty about not being able to save the child after she tried to save him.
Saying that it could be so, Seung-i hugged me even more tightly, and Seo-ah quietly closed her eyes and remained silent, as if trying to sympathize with my pain.
“Okay… That’s enough. Thank you, Seung.”
Now that my mind has calmed down, I feel somewhat better.
The girls couldn’t accept it at all, under the mistaken belief that they were just trying to pretend to be okay when it was really okay.
Seungi didn’t take me out of his arms, and Seoah also came over and hugged my dirty body covered in the black blood and rotten flesh of zombies.
“You worked hard today too.”
“Oppa. You worked hard.”
“…”
For the sake of the child, it must be clean. I had to push them away due to a possible illness, but they were so warm that I couldn’t bear to push them away and enjoyed their embrace a little more.
I don’t know how much time has passed.
Leaving the fallen girls behind, he immediately took off his clothes and washed his body.
As soon as she got out of the wash, a delicious smell hit her nose.
I guess it’s a special meal today.
I went to the kitchen and put my butt down across from the two people sitting side by side.
When they lifted their spoons, only then did they also start to fill their hungry stomachs, albeit slowly.
I ate every last grain of the instant rice.
Feeling full, I sat down on the living room sofa and looked out the window blankly.
Normally, Seo-ah and Seung-i would be on either side of me, but today they were strangely quiet.
At that time, I was about to get up to look for them with a face full of puzzlement.
They must have been in the room, but they came out of the room.
Seung-i is wearing a sexy maid outfit, and Seo-ah is wearing a bunny girl outfit.
As soon as I saw the two people, I couldn’t hide my excitement.
