A girl stood before him, staring at him intently.
"Why did you put a cockroach in my bag!" The girl practically screamed.
Alan didn't care enough to remember her name. She seemed to be a classmate who often fought with Alan's body's previous owner.
"Don't you understand Hyun Hyo? He's trying to get your attention!" A toad faced girl chimed in.
"Don't be like that, Yu-Jiho, I'll never like someone like you!" The pretty girl... no, the horse-faced girl said.
Alan couldn't care less to respond as another voice chimed in.
"Is this sh*t bothering you? I'll show him how to act around pretty girls."
A guy's voice sounded out as he reached for Alan's collar.
Alan reached out his hand, grabbed the guy's arms, and squshed it.
CRACK----
Everyone in the class heard it, and everyone fell dead silent. After a few moments, the guy screamed like a baby crying his first cry, and the horse-faced girl fearfully and swiftly went back to her seat. The classroom was in clamor.
After a while, a teacher called him. Apparently, a rich kid was backing the thug, and the teacher was corrupted. Alan gave him crunching guidance and under Alan's goodwill, he was very willing to repent. Just another usual school day.
Alan picked up his school bag, although he didn't know what was inside it. A voice called out to him,
"Do you have time? I have something to say to you."
She is the class monitor who handed out a note to Alan yesterday.
"I have things to do. You can say it here if it's urgent." Alan said.
"No, it's urgent, you'd like as well. Please come with me." She urged.
Alan can sense she's lying. But he was curious about this situation.
"Alright, lead the way." Alan Said.
The class monitor sensed something off about Alan's words, but put her worries aside and started leading the way.
The class monitor took Alan out of school into an Alleyway, and Alan silently followed without questioning anything.
Soon, 12 people entered Alan's vision. 2 girls had needle marks and were visibly disoriented. 3 other girls didn't have any needle marks, they had gloating expressions. Surrounding them were 7 guys and in the middle was 1 guy wearing the same school clothes as him.
"Please give it to me, I brought him as you asked. Please!"
The class monitor desperately called out to the guy wearing school clothes.
"Give it to her. And for you, what body part should I take off of you? Is it arms, legs, your eyes, or maybe kidneys? They sell well, so I will make money too." The arrogant kid nodded to himself with his brilliant plan.
"Yes, eyes and kidneys are nice, get him." The kid commanded as his goon started approaching Alan.
Alan smiled slightly as he disappeared and appeared before the kid.
Behind him, the goons' heads rolled on the ground.
"You-"
Alan grabbed his mouth and spread virus from his palm.
Within seconds, the kid's body started to rot. The girls were about to scream as Alan breathed a blue mist, and the girls fell to the ground, their heartbeats stopped.
Alan preserved the kid's life, but the kid couldn't scream as his body was rotting. His hand rotted and fell off, his legs rotted and fell off, his eyes rotted and fell out of the sockets, and finally, his internal organs rotted and ended his life.
Alan wiped the blood from his palm on the kid's clothes as he looked at the Class monitor, who was lying there motionlessly.
'This body's previous owner had a bad taste, liking a dog is better than liking this girl.'
Alan shook his head and went to the casino to see progress.
--------
Casino was closed down, just as Shanshan said, and a lot of trucks were lined up, and boxes after boxes were taken inside the Casino.
As the guards saw Alan, they straightened their backs as if showing respect. Alan passed by them and entered the Casino.
Shanshan was intensely giving out orders and threats to the workers. Except 2 guards by her side, everyone was doing their best to get the boxes in quickly.
As Alan went near her, Shanshan came running to him.
"All food within 30 miles was purchased by me! You can rest assured, I didn't spare any effort!"
Shanshan appeared rather excited.
Alan nodded as he didn't have anything else to say.
He went inside the storehouse which was deep undergound of the casino. In front of him appeared a couple of million tons of food. They're mostly food with a long expiration date. By his estimate, this much food is good enough for a large-sized shelter for a couple of years. In other words, he now possesses the first qualification to be a ruler, resources.
'Tonight at 12, the apocalypse will finally begin. This will mark either the beginning of my ambition or my fall.'
Alan felt excitement grip his heart as he saw the sun setting down.
"Shanshan, send a few of your to this address and bring the mother and daughter here." He looked at the horizon and commanded.
Shanshan swiftly executed the command.
Alan commanded no one to leave tonight, nor to drink any alcohol. And they were to be kept in a single room.
Alan sat down. An automatic rifle was by his side, and boxes of unsealed ammunition were beside him.
Ha-Joon was very scared at first, but soon, she started sticking close to Alan, Shanshan was constantly monitoring this with the corner of her eye as she sat down to rest.
Ha-Joon asked a lot of questions about why they were here. Alan simply brushed her off, saying she'll know when the time comes.
12:00AM 09/25/2030
The Apocalypse has begun.
