Quest Given When Possessed 101

Chapter 101 – Zombie Apocalypse 2 (9)

Isn’t it correct to call it collection and not looting?

After leaving the car wash, I went into an empty house nearby and got a blanket.

When evacuating, I rarely took the blanket with me or took only one blanket with me, so of course there was some left over.

I shared the blanket with Naeun and cleaned it up, so we could live after returning to the car wash office.

I used a broom to sweep up all the dust and take out the things inside to make the office a little bigger. I also found a key while cleaning up, so I can now lock the door.

I don’t plan on putting anything valuable inside, but I can now sleep with peace of mind at night.

I laid down a few layers of blankets near the outlet and lay down on them. Although it wasn’t as soft as a mattress, it was much better than using a blanket from the supermarket.

And the best thing is that you can hold Naeun in your arms without worrying about what others think.

“Huh… I belong to some kind of group, but in a vague way?”

“Because we didn’t share life, death and ups and downs with those people from the beginning. We helped them, but we probably drew the line at that level.”

If I had been cornered in the supermarket that day, I would have been treated as a hero, but now I was treated as an outsider with power, but not an enemy.

And those people are even more scared because they know that I have the power to kill even evolved zombies.

“Let’s go to the supermarket and get our supplies.”

“Yes. It really feels like I moved nearby.”

Is it true that this also joined the mart?

*

I ate dinner at the supermarket, waited, and then went out following the night patrol.

The patrol route remained the same, but the visual limitations consumed more mental energy than patrolling during the day.

“I’m glad the evolved zombies didn’t come near here.”

“Yes. It would have been difficult if all the streetlights had been broken.”

As we were walking and talking under the streetlight, a patrol member cautiously intervened.

“Hey, Mr. Lee Sian, how strong was that evolved zombie? If you look at other videos, it really had the power to destroy a house. Was the evolved zombie that Mr. Sian fought that strong?”

“I could break down the hallway with a punch and get down to the floor, and if I jumped high, I could climb up to the third floor. Those of you who have seen me know that I can kill a zombie with a single swing of a baseball bat, right? Even if I hit it with more force than that, it didn’t die. I hit him so hard that I finally exploded his head…”

“Ugh… It’s a monster.”

“That’s why these patrols are really helpful. At least there won’t be any extinguished zombies near the supermarket.”

There is a possibility that they may come from somewhere else, but it would be better to not talk about it to increase the morale of the patrol team.

So we killed 7 zombies on this patrol and returned to the mart.

It rotates roughly every 3 hours, and if there are about 10 zombies, that’s 80 in 24 hours?

Even though I wasn’t traveling around that wide an area, I thought there were a lot of them.

If you don’t hunt, there will definitely be more evolved zombies.

‘Let’s just protect Na-eun.’

With that in mind, I returned to the car wash with the remaining supplies from the supermarket.

When I entered the car wash office and locked the door, Naeun suddenly took off his top.

Has it already become that kind of atmosphere? I thought about that for a moment, but then I saw Naeun taking off the bandage on his right arm.

What was visible between the loosened bandages was not a blue bruise, but soft skin.

Although the entire body did not completely return to its original state, the area where I concentrated the massage had its skin color restored.

“It’s really better. Haha…”

Naeun sighed deeply as he spoke.

Then he sat down on the sofa and patted the spot next to him with his hand, and I carefully sat down next to him.

“Since there is no one else, let’s talk openly. What I saw was real, right? I was really injured and broken by an evolved zombie, right?”

After thinking for a moment, I calmly spoke to Naeun.

“Yes, that’s right. You weren’t mistaken.”

“A really chosen person? Is that so?”

It is true that Yoo Sian chose Lee Sian, but he did not have transcendent power.

Rather, I received more from Lee Sian.

“That’s not true. I hear strange things like the Lord of the Plague and the World talking in my head, but it’s very ordinary compared to that? It’s not just that, I’ve awakened a special power.”

“Special power? It’s not dangerous, right?”

“Okay, how do I use my body well? And you could say it’s a way to share my energy with others.”

“So, can we really say that the fact that you recovered from that fatal wound and healed my arm gave you special powers?”

“I don’t know for sure how I recovered from the fatal wound, but I’m sure it was I who healed your arm.”

“Then you are the chosen one.”

If the conclusion is like that, I have no choice but to say it is correct.

“That said, I have to save the world. It’s not like I was given the power to make that choice. I just got the power to protect myself.”

“Well, I like that one too.”

Naeun brought his naked upper body closer to me.

“Let’s just endure in this zombie world and survive until the power is no longer needed. Honestly, it would have been better if the video wasn’t even filmed. I looked it up, and it seemed like there were a lot of people who watched your video and challenged the evolved zombie.”

“Because we didn’t film it.”

“Did we take a picture?”

If you think about it, Naeun filmed and uploaded a video of me blowing off a zombie’s head with one blow, right?

“Well, can’t anyone with power do that?”

Nae-eun, who came to me in an awkward manner, was pulled to her chest and hugged her.

“Naeun, anyone will misunderstand that we came out here separately, so should we just do it?”

What would a couple who couldn’t endure group life for even a day and ran away to the building next door do?

It will be a good story.

I thought it would be much better to just do it instead of being misunderstood like that.

“Yes. Let’s do it♡”

It was a good atmosphere, and Naeun happened to be taking off her top, so it created a good atmosphere.

As I happened to be sitting on the sofa, Naeun naturally climbed on top of me and kissed me lightly, cheering me up.

And she expanded her presence detection to check her surroundings one last time.

‘Holy shit? Is there someone?’

I feel sorry for Naeun, who was in a heated mood, but I felt like I had to take care of things around her for a moment.

“Naeun.”

“Huh? I can’t stand it? Should I take it off?”

“There’s someone around.”

When Naeun heard those words, she pouted her mouth and got down on my thigh.

Naeun said as she put on her top that had been left on the pile of blankets.

“Are you a zombie? A person?”

“It looks like a person when I see it moving slowly. I think I should check it out.”

“Aren’t people more dangerous than zombies…?”

“Zombies have simple movements and do not use weapons, so in that respect they are more comfortable than humans.”

“I don’t like fighting.”

“Me too.”

Without any protective gear, I took only a baseball bat and opened the office door.

“As expected, there are people!”

“They said it didn’t exist in the first place!”

As I heard those words, I felt the signs moving away.

You want to join the supermarket, but you can’t, so you’ve been thinking about settling down at a car wash nearby?

Unfortunately, it was a few hours late.

“What? Did you go?”

“Yeah. Shall we chase after him?”

“Um, okay. Let’s go.”

Naeun gave me a look that said he trusted me, and we took the lantern and went outside.

I walked slowly toward the place where the unidentified people identified through presence detection had moved.

Naeun was lighting up her surroundings with a lantern from behind, so she was able to clearly see.

Presence detection is more accurate, but it is better to reduce mental power consumption.

The place we arrived was a nearby building with stairs, a place where we settled down to disperse the zombies that had accumulated at the entrance when we went to help the mart.

“Isn’t this where we hid back then?”

“Yeah. I guess they’ve cleared out all the zombies. Are they here?”

“I think it’s probably here.”

He was sitting at the top of the stairs, glancing down and looking at us.

“If the reason you came to the car wash is justifiable, I’ll just send you back.”

After saying that and waiting for a while, a slightly younger-looking man slowly appeared, holding something that looked like a chair leg.

“Hey. I definitely didn’t go there with bad thoughts, I just wanted to go to the supermarket. I used to gather people, but now I’m just patrolling, right?”

“Once, there was a big accident when we were accepting people without distinction. So now we don’t accept people at the supermarket.”

“Ah… I see. Then why are you sitting at the car wash? You’re the one at the car wash, right?”

Now that I’m asking about that, there’s a lot of wrong with the order.

He’s not exactly a kid, but he looks like he’s in his second or third year of middle school, so you can tell me.

“It’s from the supermarket, but I was out with her girlfriend for a little while. I can tell you that much, right?”

“Hey. What if I say that like that?”

Naeun poked me in the back with the lantern.

“Ah… Ugh… So right now, you can’t receive help from the supermarket, and you can’t even use the car wash?”

“Yes. Well, that will happen. Did you walk away from where you originally stayed? Should I take you there?”

I said that to him because he was someone I could communicate with so much that I thought about taking him there if I could, but a woman who looked like his younger sister came out from behind the man.

“I don’t want to go back…”

“What happened?”

“They’re just completely crazy people. The guys who were catching zombies changed at some point… So I ran away with my brother…”

A girl who answers Naeun’s questions emotionally would be a good fit.

The boy and girl seemed to have escaped from a group that was turning into something bad.

“Where is it?”

“It’s a group gathered around the officetel up there…”

I was able to clearly understand the location as the boy roughly explained it.

“That’s my living room, right?”

“It seems so.”

It seems like something happened in the officetel where Naeun was living alone.
