Chapter 18: Chapter 17 The beginning of apocalypse
(I changed it from creating zombies to becoming zombies as a side effect of the drug. Creating zombies as a weapon without being able to control them is just too stupid, but there won't be any major change. 😅)
*dat*
After the door was closed, Lucia hugged the depressed Saeko and Shizuka, each in her arms.
"I will tell you two that the real secret is that I didn't talk earlier."
When they heard what Lucia said, they raised their heads again and looked at Lucia.
"What? Did you two believe I would leave you guys? As if!" Lucia said while laughing.
"Anyway, I will take you two. So, don't worry. The real secret is about this world."
"This world?" Saeko asks.
"Yes, in my original world, your world is just fiction. This is an anime world, and this world is known as the high school of the dead."
"Is that even possible?" Shizuka asked. She knows about fiction and anime because some of her friends like to watch them and have told her about them before. Saeko doesn't watch anime and only watches handy movies. So she doesn't know about anime.
"Yes, as proof of it, I'm already here, aren't I?" Two nodded in understanding. Lucia explained this world as she saw it in anime. She told them everything, including the characters in it and how it would end. She also told them some plot lines had already strayed from the original.
After she explains for 30 minutes, she starts the main topic.
"When I leave this world, I will take both of you. Are you two really willing to leave with me?"
"Do you even have to ask? Of course, we will go with you." The two said while smiling. Early depressions are gone.
"Earlier, I said I have a dream that I want to achieve. Right?" The two nodded.
"It's to get more girls. Aren't you?" Saeko asks with a smirk.
"Ahaha… yeah. Will you girls be okay with it?" Shizuka and Saeko look at each other and smile.
"It's okay. But will you be able to satisfy us?" Saeko said as she licked her lip.
"Ahem… Don't worry, I can manage it." Lucia said.
"I also don't mind it, but can you take Rika too? She is my friend." Shizuka said.
"I'm going to get her as your sister too; don't worry. Also, Yuriko will become one sooner or later," Lucia said, and Saeko looked at her in disbelief.
"Are you really going to get her? Not Saya? Wait, are you going to get a mother-daughter pair?" Saeko didn't know whether to laugh or cry about this.
"Can you please not look at me like that?" Lucia said while laughing.
"Lucia… I want a kiss," Shizuka said suddenly, acting shy.
"Sure," Lucia said, kissing Shizuka. Lucia's tongue invaded Shizuka's mouth, wicking Havo. The arm that embraces Shizuka's body is beginning to tighten and is rubbing someplace here and there.
Moments later, the two parted ways.
"What about me?" Saeko asked. Lucia was about to say something, but she stopped and turned back to Shizuka. Since morning, Shizuka's affection has kept rising, but the affection meter has stopped at 90%. It only reached 100% just now. It seems the affection meter will stop at 90%, and only when Lucia kisses will it reach 100%. This time, the hidden mission is not triggered, which means this is not Shizuka's first kiss.
[Shizuka Marikawa: Affection - 100%] (+10%)
[Congratulations!! Shizuka Marikawa has become your lover!]
"Wait a sec. Who did you kiss before?" Lucia asked in disbelief.
"Umm… I don't? ...wait a sec…" Shizuka was thinking for a while and said.
"Ah! Rika told me before that she wanted to practice kissing, and we did it quite a few times." Lucia became speechless. I don't know if Rika is this daring. I'm sure she loves Shizuka too, but why not confess her?
*Sigh*
"I thought you had been taken advantage of by some guys, but what a relief."
"Hmm? Why? Is it bad?"
"Of course, you airhead," Lucia said as she slapped Shizuka's ass.
*pat!*
"Ahh~~~" Lucia is twitching her eye bow. 'This girl is too damn sexy! I might not be able to control myself if this continues. I have not even told them about systems yet.'
"Ahem… we will continue later, but I still have some more to say. It's about systems." Lucia explains what the system is and how she can use it by using coins.
"I see… so many coins missed because you didn't get Shizuka's first kiss." Shizuka apologized, feeling as if she had made a mistake.
"S-sorry"
"Ah, it's okay, I don't mind about it. I was just surprised about that. "I never thought Shizuka would lose her first kiss to Rika and multiple times at that."
"You said you might get more coins if you went all the way, right? Shizuka-sensei. No, Shizuka-nee shouldn't you be compassionate with your body?" Saeko asks with a smirk. Lucia also looked at Shizuka with a smile.
*glup*
"P-please, be gentle with me…" Shizuka said as she looked like she was about to cry while looking at the two wolves that were about to eat her inside out.

(This is before cannon started)
(Unnamed scientist POV)
Black Eagle Company is one of the biggest weapons selling companies in the world. I work there as a scientist. One day, one of the exclusive of the company is coming down to the base 3 that I work. He gathered all the scientists and asked us to do a crazy task.
'What? He wants us to create a strengthening pill? Is he crazy? Why bother creating that when we can just make more explosive weapons? He said he wanted to create super humans. Is he watching too many marvel movies?' Of course, I only complain in my mind.
It took a really long time to create one. I have somehow successfully created a strengthening pill. It only lasts for a few seconds, but nonetheless it's a success. It will strengthen a person's strength 3 times for 30 seconds. The effect is amazingly great.
He can even pierce the iron door with bare fit. I couldn't even believe my eyes. Did I really create that formula? Theoretically, it is perfect, but I never thought it would work.
My superior is overjoyed and promoted me and now I'm head scientist in base 3. Base numbers are not rank, they just name them like that.
In 3 years of experiments, we still weren't able to upgrade it, but by chance I added some materials I got from the black market. Well, the seller said it was spiritual material he got from some place. It's expensive but I had my head aching from the stress, so I just added it to the experiment and I succeeded in increasing it in time.
I can't believe this unrealistic thing was happening. This is not a game world after all. Why would it succeed when you throw some random thing in there? Sometimes I think I'm in some kind of movie or novel. Am I the protagonist of some movie? What am I even thinking? Maybe I'm thinking like this because of stress. I really need a vacation now.
Originally, the pill only lasted for 30 seconds, but after that experiment it became 50 seconds. It's not much, but strengthening 3 times for 50 seconds is amazingly good already. It can save the user's life in the middle of a battlefield. For 1 month there were no problems. However, some experiment subjects start to act weird as they are staring blankly at the same place and not moving.
I have a bad feeling about this but I throw that thought away. I need to relax for a while as I have been having stress for a while now. My superior gave me two months to relax. I go to the beach and it's really relaxing there. Staying in door, almost all the time is really tiring.
After 2 months of relaxing, it's time for me to go back to work.
'Good bye my relaxing time…'
When I reach the base, only silence welcomes me.
"Where the hell did they go?" I swapped the card and went onto the base.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(Two days ago, before the Scientist returned)
*Bang!* *Bang!*
"Fucking hell! Why the hell are they not dying?" a soldier from Base 3 shouted while shooting at the zombie. In front of them there are many zombies walking towards them at a steady speed. One of the cleaners is being bitten by the dead test subject. He was sent to the infirmary to heal the wound and from there bloody scenes started.
"Stop talking and shoot damn it!" another soldier is shouted back as he also shoots zombies. They can't escape now as they were trapped in the room. At the doorsteps there are zombies coming in one after another.
"Miss! Can't you still connect to the HQ?" The soldier asked the woman scientist.
"NO! Not yet! I can't connect no matter what. Someone must be blocking it!" She shouted back at the soldier in panic.
"Fuck! Who the hell is blocking the connection in this kind of situation?!"
Not long after that, they were bitten to death and joined the zombie army.
"Ahhhhh!!"
"Save me!!"
"Help!!"
The helicopter flew over the base and headed in an unknown direction. On the helicopter,
"Arg! Fuck, all the people on the base have gone mad! Biting to each other to die." The man in a white coat said, and at his side a woman with the same white coat and another was a gun with uniform.
"Yes, we should report this to HQ as fast as we can." The woman said she was holding her arm too, as she also had been bitten. The soldier was paying attention to where some of the zombies ran out of the base and he saw that was a strange thing at that moment.
The zombies stopped, they don't go after the people that run into the forest and returned back into the base again. Earlier, the zombies were chasing them and biting to have dead the people they caught, but now they stopped and let some survivors' escapes. The base seemed to be silent again, as if nothing had happened before.
'Why are they going back? Unless…' the soldier became frightened with countless thoughts.
"There is Base 5 not far from Base 3. Let's go there and connect to HQ as fast as we can." The male scientist said to the pilot, and the woman scientist nodded while the soldier with them was still lost in his own thoughts. And so, the helicopter disappeared from base 3's place.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The unnamed scientist is walking in the base and he sees nothing. The place is clean, there seems to be nothing wrong.
(Unnamed scientist POV)
'This is becoming creepy. I feel like I'm the only living person on this base.'
Finally, I saw some blood on the walls. There are even some parts of hands or legs.
'Shit, is this base under attack?!' I was about to run to the entrance but the people were blocking my way to the entrance.
'So many people… wait, why are they…?'
"!!" I saw bloods and wounds on their bodies.
'... Zombie!? Shit! Why the hell are they here?' I thought I was going to die but they didn't move from their place. They were just standing there blocking my escape route.
*tap*
*tap*
*tap*
The sound of the steps can be heard from behind the zombie group. Not long after the stepping sound is stopped, the zombie group that is blocking my way is paving a way and I see a woman with black hair in white coat. If I hadn't looked at the ID card that was still intact on her clothes, I might have thought she was also a scientist.
"Who are you?"
"Dead men don't need to know about that, do we?" She smiled evilly.
'Fuck, shouldn't come back here'
