Level up Zombie

With the last of his strength, it looked like Shark had left a message for whoever was to find his body, most likely the organisation that he was working for. While observing the message, Zain didn't believe Shark would leave such a message behind as a way to trick someone.

Whenever he talked or mentioned the demons, Shark's demeanour would change, and he was always serious about such a fact. At the same time, it didn't add up. Everything that Zain had seen didn't look to be the work of the military. It was definitely some sort of creature.

'Just how strong are these demons that you were so afraid of.' Zain thought. 'You were a strong fighter, and not just you, but the enemy took out the whole group, and from the looks of it, the former didn't even face any challenge.'

Upon walking out of the room, Zain went to have a look at the state of the outer area. Now that he had somewhat confirmed that it was the work of a demon, he started to evaluate its strength and how it had managed to rip Shark's body in half.

The Reborn group were stronger than regular humans, and they had the added fact they couldn't feel pain. On top of that, they had Shark, who was skilful and tactical. Zain imagined that the former hadn't shown his all in the fight against him earlier in the evening, and if Zain hadn't had the guns on him from before, maybe the whole fight would have turned into a different story altogether.

'Wait a second, Kun and Pink's bodies aren't here.'

Having realised this, Zain started to check the other rooms he had yet to go into: the one that Zain had woken up in and the one that Shark would use to train himself. Upon heading inside, he didn't find anything out of the ordinary, and neither were there any signs of a fight taking place.

'I guess the Demon or demons dealt with all of them quickly, but then how did Pink and Kun escape? Or is it possible that their bodies had just completely disappeared? Did the demons eat them?'

Even with this line of thought, it wouldn't confirm everything. Unless he knew someone who was there, it wouldn't do.

Upon heading back into the room Shark was in, Zain was hoping that he could find something, like a journal or some kind of notes as to when the people from that organisation would be coming or where their base was. However, as soon as he entered though, he soon heard a sound.

Someone had pushed open the main entrance of the club, and in the next instant, it was slammed shut.

'Skittle and Cobra are by the entrance. I have to give them a command.'

It was the first time Zain was trying this, but he thought it could work out somehow, and he had given the order of protection for one to protect the other and vice versa. So if they were to be attacked, they would fight the enemy off together.

At the same time, Zain ran from the office, jumped up backstage, went through the back curtain, walking out on stage to look at who had entered the club.

"Zain!!!" A voice. "How could you?! How could you have done this!"

There was a man at the entrance who was looking at Jelly from behind the bar. He hadn't attacked Skittle or Cobra since he knew who they were because the one who had returned was Kun.

"You damn basta*d! I stuck up for you! I knew you were crazy, but I never thought that you would do something like this!" Kun was incensed, "I told you everything we knew, we are just doing our job, but we tried our best to protect them, so then why…why did you have to go and kill them?!"

After hearing these words, Zain finally knew why Kun was acting in such a way. It looked like the reason why Kun had survived was that he wasn't even here in the first place to witness it.

"Kun, you're wrong." Zain immediately tried to clarify, "I didn't kill them, I just arrived here like you about five minutes ago, and they were all like this."

Wiping his tears away, Kun had a confused look on his face.

"What do you mean?…it has to be you! Who else could have killed them like this?"

"Like what exactly?" Zain replied. "Look at the wounds on their body? Do you really think I could have done something like that? Do you think my gun could have done something like that?"

Quickly, Kun had a further look at the bodies again. He could see the large holes that had pierced through them and the cuts that were made on their body.

He ran over to Fingers, who was closer by the stage and looked at him as well, and the wounds on him appeared to be the same.

"You were an agent, right? So you should understand that me doing something like this is impossible." Zain added, "And if you go into the office, I'm sure you will have your answer, and again, I would never do something like that."

Kun quickly rushed into the office soon after, and a few grunts, shrieks and banging on the door were heard. Although Kun didn't know these guys for long, he did feel like it was his responsibility to look after them.

It was even the reason why he had left them here, thinking that it was a safe place, and then there was also Shark himself, a fellow agent with who he had worked together for an incredibly long time.

After giving Kun a few minutes, Zain decided to enter the room and could see Kun just staring down at the body in front of him.

He looked like a statue, not moving at all and just staring at the body.

"I'm sure you saw the words that he wrote. I don't know what happened more than you do now. The two of us can only guess." Zain replied.

A few more seconds later and Kun was coming a little bit.

"Where is Pink? Her body? We have to find her body as well and be respectful to them all."

Kun was ready to go searching, but Zain quickly stopped him from doing so.

"I already looked, but I couldn't find her anywhere. I thought she might have gone with you, but I guess that's not the case."

"That means she's most likely alive! But then, how did she survive? Why are the rest like this, and she's not here!" Kun asked.

However, Zain didn't have the answers to that, and the two of them were just going through the same questions again.

"You…this is your fault." Kun couldn't think straight, "I went out looking for you, I wasn't here, and because of that, everyone ended up like this. And look at you know, you came back here anyway! This is all on your shoulders."

Zain started to walk up to Kun, who stepped back bit by bit.

"Was I the one that created this zombie virus in the first place? Or the one who chose to hide out in this area?

"I told everyone they were free to leave or come with me. It was their choice to stay here. In life, you can't just blame others for your own mistakes, you are in control of yourself, and no one else controls your life.

"If you were here, do you think that would have made a difference? You would be dead and on the floor just like them!" Zain shouted.

The look on Kun's face was of utter despair and defeat. He knew that Zain was right. At the end of the day, the same thing was most likely going to happen if they had met him or not.

In one way or the other, Kun had only survived because Zain had escaped and left the place.

"This world sucks," Kun said, clenching his fist.

"That is something we both can agree on," Zain said. "These demons seem pretty strong to take out, Shark. Do you know anything about them?"

"No…not anything that you don't already know. Just the Reborn organisation would always make a big deal about them. It was strange they couldn't really tell us what they looked like or their strengths and just stated that they were the most dangerous things that we could run into."

Hearing Kun's response, Zain was even more curious and went up to Shark's corpse again.

'If only I could find out what exactly happened to you.'

Just when he had this thought, a familiar sound rang in his head, and a system prompt appeared.

-Ding!
