“Aim for the heads! Don’t let them reach the building!”
One of the group yelled. He stood straight commanding the other people crouching on the ground. It wasn’t that long till Byul realized, he was their leader. Byul took one meaningful look at his own group, especially staring at Winston’s gun hanging on his shoulder as he raised his brow.
“Got something to say to me?” Byul asked Stanley as he looked at him empty-handed. This guy rushed here without even thinking and didn’t even bring anything? Byul sighed heavily. This jerk must’ve thought that this is still a game. What a late bloomer.
Somehow, Byul was disappointed.
“Pick something you could use. Try to kill some if you have nothing to do.”
Without waiting for them to make up their minds. Byul walked near the entrance and consult his system. The
The trip to the stranger’s room was filled with silence. Byul had never thought that he would be in this situation at all. After the awkward encounter, he was immediately invited to the person’s house. Just what on Earth is going on? Byul have no idea but it looks like the handsome man is not hostile towards him anymore.Byul was preoccupied with his thoughts, he didn’t even realize that he was taken inside the room and was led towards the bed. The man hid his smile, he still has the towel wrapped on his waist. For outsiders to look, Byul must’ve been brought here so that he could watch him as he changed but for this person it was not the case.Since they’re already in the bedroom anyways. Byul sat on the bed absentmindedly, looking at the man with a foolish expression in his face.“You’re quite defenseless for a guy.”The man gave him a single glance a
After leaving the apartment building, Byul wandered around the street to quite some time. He was contemplating whether the group had left the building by now as he was to call out his army. But it would be troublesome if they are to shoot at his puppets again. Somehow, Byul felt funny inside. It should be easy for him to do as he please since everything here is from a game, the only difference is that he was one of the characters inside.It would be much easier if he was the one who’s sitting in front of a computer but. Now that he was also aware that the initial plan was just to be a player, he somehow felt a bit conflicted because of his new status as a character. When he thought about the first time he discovered the game ‘Arc of Shion’ his mood felt better.Arc of Shion, it gave him a place where he belongs. Without looking at other people, without having felt the wretched feeling and hating himself. It rewarded him a new life. Not just a life but also a mission. Such a thing, he
When Stanley finally left the building, he and Winston’s group finally part ways. From what he had observe from the new group, the people are tight-lipped about the situation so he didn’t force himself there. Gathering information is much better on site so that very night, he left and decided to wander on the streets.There were several corpse lying everywhere and there seems to be no sign of human activity, which made him slightly frustrated. Wasn’t apocalypse something lively so what’s going on now? Why is the streets so empty and there’s not even a single zombie crawling around. As a human being starved of thrill, this is definitely unacceptable!As he thought back about the drug case, Stanley have a few suspicions in his heart. If the outbreak started because of the drug then the only way to stop it is to create an antidote but if the whole issue involved is not only that then he don’t know what
Having heard the mechanical beep. Stanley quickly dart his attention to his system screen. He was silent for a while. The sense of urgency he felt just had been extinguished but once again it reared his heart again. It wasn’t that long when he contemplated to check his system screen. In fact, he really don’t want to check it out anymore but because the situation was urgent he didn’t hesitate to tap the skill section.Just as he heard before, he unlocked a new skill. Stanley browsed his system screen for a while, tapping impatiently on his skill section and soon he finally found the new skill interface: Master’s Bond..?‘A rare skill that meant to increase your own ability when you are bound to another person’s ability. It can be use to exchange or share your ability with another person. Binds your souls as one in a short period of time. It can only be used once.’Stanley was sile
‘Is this really the end?’Byul had just released the thought in his mind when he immediately opened his eyes in surprise. Byul gasped, he really thought he was going to die. The pain still haven’t subsided but he could feel his body being squeezed by a foreign object. In the next second, Byul turned his head and instantly froze. This time, the shock was too big that he immediately went stiff.The fear in his heart slowly left his guts and now all the feeling that is left was a total confusion. Byul blinked his eyes slowly thinking that this might be a dream. After all, he wouldn’t even see this bastard in reality but unfortunately his sleeping face was really just next to him.Byul tried to moved his face away but all the strength in his body was lost and he couldn’t even lift a finger. Byul sighed and just gave up the idea of pushing him off. He was curious though, how did he fo
It’s been two weeks since the outbreak started. From all of the place they had seen, Byul deduced that the apocalypse has just began. Judging from the few zombies crawling and the unknown cause, it seems the drug still hasn’t been discovered by the government. Though it was disheartening, it is such a relief that there’s only few zombies in the streets.“Fuck!”Byul was now burning with anger. It hasn’t been long since they confronted the hundreds of zombies and it still hasn’t been that long since that bastard activated his skill but now in a fucking moment of desperation, Byul didn’t hesitate to run away. Even if his legs had been shaking and he’s dragging his own body desperately, Byul was so pissed enough to not bat an eye to someone else.The certain someone was still fighting the zombies and it has only been a few minutes before he was instantly surrounded by th
Stanley let out an angry sigh. Fuck! He never felt so frustrated before but he fucking blame himself for not properly thinking things through. In his heart, he didn’t really plan to save him for he don’t have any reason to. But, damn! Even if he had wavered a bit and thought in such a negative way, the fact that he still save him cannot be denied!And right now, at this very point he totally regretted it. Who would’ve guess that this idiot was so f*cking ungrateful to not even hesitate to leave him behind? To tell him the truth, he also had that urge last night but he f*cking endured and stayed with him until the end!Back then, he thought he would be satisfied to see him suffer but thinking to it now, he felt a deep regret and resentment that he could never take back. It isn’t the fact that he regret saving him then but the thought of him leaving his side! He won’t care if he dies so
Over time, Stanley finally managed to calm himself. After such intense repentance, he felt more annoyed than better so he didn’t linger in the issue anymore. He never felt so empty before but thinking up to this point, he slightly resent himself.Byul just walked over and gave him a hateful glance. Can’t he just move on? Taking the matter so seriously. They’re not even that young anymore.It was about to be noon and the two of them was currently in the middle of nowhere. The boat was still running and he don’t know how to figure it out after fiddling with the controls for a while. After starting it up, he thought he’ll less figured out the next but being overconfident could really led to failure. After busting his brain cells for a while, Byul eventually gave up. Why is the control panel so difficult to understand? In games, he would only pressed one or two and it would be fine. However, the game was like the to
