' Eh, I really forgot to remind them to buy some extra clothes from the shop. If I take some clothes for myself, then they would later blame me. ' He probed before clicking the [Accept] option infront of his eyes on the ethereal screen.
At that moment his colourful world turned monotone of black and white, the chatter from the corridors ceased to exist, the 'Second' hand of clock halted as if it got damaged finally he could see the Sakura petals outside of the window stand still akin to a portrait.
And Ryuto vanished from the seat, where he sat previously.
^_^
July 26, 2109. Ohyoto, Germany.
A small streched plain abandoned with the wake of 'Ze' Virus. The abandoned plain was in the middle of Bavarian forest. The largest continuous Woodland area in Europe, it was the natural utopia of glacial lakes, mountains and wild. But after the outbreak of Biohazard made some of it's areas got infected with walking dead.
It's location may be distant from civilization but that also makes it somehow safer than the zombie filled cities where living has become almost impossible. There's a abandoned homage in the middle of plain a possible safe ground for the [ Players ] authorized by world will.
Out of nowhere, three silhouette appeared out of thin air standing on the plain ground of that abandoned plain infront of a dilapidated house. The first one who appeared was the most striking a tall & handsome bloke comparable to xanxia protagonists. He had hazel brown hair reaching down his neck while his tangerine gem eyes shined with utter curiosity.
Most noticeable thing about him was his high school uniform and his nonchalant demeanour as if nothing can shock him.
The second one to appear was a ordinary girl with light blonde hair which she kept in Bob cut. Most striking feature about her was her viridescent eyes (green) and gentle personality which would fight head to head with Sn*w white. Her entire body emancipated an aura of kindness and modesty.
She was in a white sundress, while her hands were cusp to each other.
Third and last person to appear was also a girl with petite frame. She was doll-like, pale-skinned girl with waist-length pinkish-blonde hair. Her figure is very slender and her bust is small, she is the shortest among the three. She was currently in a maroon frock.
" Ugh my head! Pervert? Olivia? Are you both nearby !? " said the doll faced girl with squinting eyes as she rubbed her forehead.
" Y-yeah, Sanada-san I'm near you. Wait for a certain time period, I think the headache will go away soon. " said the girl with bob hair cut, who stood over a berry fruit bush. She had closed her eyes to believing the mana inside her body might recover her state soon.
" You both should be able to see properly after 5 mins, take your time. " said the handsome bloke with a suave voice as he observed the spring of otherworldly beauties infront of him.
Both of those gals looked at his direction and were gobsmacked. Ririna was so surprised that, she stepped back because of bafflement. Now, she can realise, why his classmates were eyeing him like a hawk.
This guy was dropdead handsome, not to mention the lean musculature was easier distinguish, she couldn't help but hid her face because her cheeks had reddened and she didn't want to show this and embarrassed.
Meanwhile Olivia was taking it as normal, but deep down, even she was struggling to form any words. He was just like a prince from those royalties, very hard to capture his attention possessing an unruly personality, that was because of his uneven way wearing an uniform.
She could even sense, that he was unaware of his natural charm. That was dangerous, dangerous for her heart. She rarely losed focus because of mana within her, but here it wasn't there to support her. Her heart beat like drums, as she was caught by this surprise.
"Wow, you both are really beautiful. I could expect from Olivia but Ririna you surprised me a lot, what can I say, you're the cute deretsun archetype . My my, to think I will spend a year with you, it would be my pleasure."
Ryuto couldn't help but sense the present atmosphere both of them were lost of words, is it because of my uniform? Do I appear more unruly to them? So he tried to appear as amiable as possible, and why is that Mushi ignoring him? Is it because, she realised I will punish her later?
Lots and lots of questions were swirling inside his head, but first of all he needs to deal with sickly body laying beside the carrier truck. It was of a man, both his hands looked rotten as if an infestation has grown over it. The thing looked dead, but one can't be sure enough to believe that.
It was a Zombie probably, trying to act dead. It's face was rotten, one of it's eyeballs popped out of its socket. Overall it looked uglier than it appeared scary.
While he was waiting for their conversation to start, his entire focus was on the laid dead body against one of the hind tires. Not to mention, he could see some tools and weapons laying on back carrier of truck.
As Ririna didn't seem in the condition to answer, who was trying to regain her composure back. Instead it was Olivia the one, that was kind enough to sense the awkwardness. So she was the first one of the girls to reply.
"Admin-san, please tell me one thing, you're bad at common sense, right? You're making it awkward for us, if you just bombard us with compliments."
"Hehe, sorry I was really surprised. You should know, I'm not that good at making friends, other than you two, Itsuki is the first friend, I have made in school."
As both Ryuto and Olivia were talking, Ririna remained silent as she listened carefully, what they were talking about. She could only thank Olivia, who reprimand him. But when she heard about his new friend, she couldn't help but feel rebuking him.
"Hmm~ I see. You have already began to spread your clutches on one of the triplets. I can expect this from this certain pervert."
"Heh, now you're joining, and here I thought you won't even talk to me. First of all, I was just curious about them, but when I got to hear, she wasn't only one of the triplets, rather of a quintuplet! Her other two sisters are in another section, I was really shocked hearing about this."
Olivia eyes enlarged with shock as she heard this, "Admin-san, your world is really filled with suprises. I haven't seen a twin in real life, and you got to see them in a single class, instead they are a quintuplet."
"Well, in my world because of Hikari Law, there are even few chances for this to happen. Because government officers will come and took samples during the birth of a child, so that they can match the compatibility. There moto is to join partners with red strings of science." Ririna answered letting out an annoyed sigh, she was really against this law. This law was directly forcing the people, it was crossing a limit within the basic human rights, which was Right to Express.
"Haha, guys enough serious talk, we have lot to talk. But first of all, we should grab those weapons on this truck. See, that body laid against the tire of this truck, I don't think it's a normal dead body. Why don't we prepare ourselves first." He pointed at the truck, both of them saw the dead body and were scared. Earlier they weren't looking around at their surroundings but were distracted by his appearance.
"Kyaaa!" "Is that....is that a zombie!?" Ririna was the first to dart towards me screaming, and hid behind me holding my left arm. Following her Olivia stood behind her, even she wasn't sure to face that horror.
" You two don't yell so loud, or you will wake it. It's possible, we could attract other unfriendly targets. Better stand behind, I will take care of this. " As the only man here, it was my responsibility to secure a safe option. Also I can't force them to hold these cold weapons, they won't be able use them, if they scared so easily.
"Good for you pervert, at least I can use you for something." Ririna said in low tone, as she feared attracting other zombies. She couldn't help but pinch his arm, as she felt, he was treating them like a liability. Although it was true, but she won't let him have it.
"Ouch* okay Olivia and Ririna can you both observe around, while I deal with this guy." As I dart my eyes around, I can see a lush forestry. Far away around 100 m, there was a dilapidated house, some walls looked made up of wood, while other walls were made of some stone.
This must be the shelter, we have been assigned. At the least, we don't have to worry about preparing a one-time shelter or this quest difficulty might have been increased.
Most surprising thing was the presence of deers, I think this zombie virus haven't affected the fuana yet, well I don't see other zombies or dead bodies nearby, but it was better to remain vigilant.
"Got it admin, I will watch out your right and back. Ririna-san can you look over our left?"
"Got it, Olivia. Look there are some ripe berry bushes here, they look tasty though." Watching Olivia taking a step up, Ririna can't remain behind, although it was scary, she wasn't alone. She identified some weeds and bushes, other than that, there were limestones laying around.
Although she can criticize Ryuto for fun, she knew, he won't let any thing to pass behind him. She was the second person to experience, the tensile strength within his arms. Although they looked simple, they were packing with strength.
So she took some deep breaths to focus on the surroundings. As she stared at the sky, Ririna could notice the clouds looked a bit coarse in colour, as if they were filled with dirt or some foreign substance. She could have expressed her concern, but they got a lot of time to relay it, so she leave it for now.
Olivia was the first to regain her composure, being a mage required lot of concentration so it has become an instict by now. Even her eyesight was way better than Ryuto.
She could pick some apparitions behind the house, who were dragging their bodies towards their direction. Some don't even have limbs, as they dragged their loosen bones on plain ground. She would inform it later, as she kept her gaze on those walking dead from afar.
Meanwhile Ryuto picked up the Baseball Bat, it had the largest range than other weapons, which was a Cleaver and a Stone Pickaxe.
