Chapter 15 - New me (Part 5)

"A person?" I quickly muttered, but the person looked off, he didn't seem alive.

"Excuse me, have you seen two people with the name Rani Yuan and Henry Emily?" Nyx asked, but I could see she was also suspicious of the person in front of us.

I narrowed my eyes to get a better look, but the person, no, it was looking at the ground. "Nyx draw your sword."

Nyx quickly drew her sword and got into a defensive stance. "Stop looking at the ground and look up at us." I said with a stern voice, but it was beginning to walk towards us instead.

And then it charged and jump towards me, but I quickly hit it in the head so it fell to the ground. "What the hell is that!" I quickly exclaimed, but Nyx looked just as confused as I did.

It had no eyes and it was rotten, with torn clothes. "It's a zombie." I quickly stepped on it's head to crush it's head so it wouldn't get back up for now.

"There must be more here." I looked towards the sun which had fully gone down now. "Nyx find the guards and warn them about the zombie." Nyx gave a nod and ran towards the guard post.

I looked down on the zombie and then looked around for a moment to see if there were more zombies, but I couldn't see any.

Meanwhile on top of a building. "They already got one, how annoying I will never complete my mission at this rate."

As the man continued to mutter to himself, but then. "System send all zombies in to attack the city now." As the command was send zombies began charging into the city.

"I need to infect this city before it turns day, I can't afford not to." As the man continued to mutter himself about completing his mission his eyes fell upon Folke once more. "I need to kill him fast, he must be the summon for this kingdom."

As the man jumped down from the building with the zombies running past him, he slowly made his way towards Folke as he turned to walk into an alley for Folke to pass through.

"Is that the sound of running?" I quickly looked around, but I couldn't see anyone running, but it sounded like it came from the other side of those house so I quickly found an alley to get through, but there were already someone there.

"You must be the summon of this country aren't? Only the summon has golden buttons so you must be, what was it again? You're Pasha aren't you?" The man asked.

"No, but you are a zombie aren't you?" I asked looking at his rotten appearence.

"No need to lie, but I can let you live if you become a zombie." The zombie asked.

"Want to at least tell me your name before you ask that or am I going to have to kill you without knowing your name."

"My names Sohu Kim, but if you are not Pasha tell me your real na-" But before he could finish his sentence I had charged towards him and hit him in the stomach sending him flying backwards.

But he quickly stood up and gave me a glare. "You're gonna regret that." He raised his hand and pointed it at me and said. "Kill him zombies." As soon as he said that all the zombies running turned towards me and began charging towards me.

I quicly jumped on to a wall and then to the other wall in the alley until I reached the top of the building to avoid the zombies, but the zombies quickly began to stack on top of each other to reach me.

I started jumping from roof to roof to get to the guard post as fast as I could, but some of the zombies had already gotten on top of the roof and continued to chase me with even Sohu Kim right behind me.

"Can't back here Pasha and fight me!" He continued to yell at me, which I was barely able to hear as he was falling further behind and eventually I saw something better than the guard post down on the road.

"Nyx we are under attack!" I quickly jumped down from the roof and landed in front of Nyx who had some guards behind her. "There are even more zombies than I thought, get all the guards in the city and we need to kill them all."

The guards quickly turned around to get more guards leaving just me and Nyx, I quickly tried to draw my sword, but then I realised something. "You forgot your sword didn't you Folke?" Nyx asked with a knowing expression on her face.

I looked down with shame on my face. "Maybe, but we were in a rush to get to Merv as fast as we could." I tried to defend with, but in reality I was just stupid.

"There is a zombie commanding them all that could speak, my guess is he's a summon for the monsters since he had a name too." Nyx looked at me with a confused face. "Can monsters have summons?"

I looked back at Nyx and replied with. "I have no idea, but it's just a guess since he had a name that sounded Korean." Nyx looked at me like she still didn't understand anything, but replied with. "Alright, I will take out the zombies and make sure they do as little damage as possible and you go after their commander."

"Are you sure you can keep them all off?" I replied with.

"No need to be concerned I will survive and more guards are on the way to support me anyway." Nyx looked at me with a determined expression and continued with. "You trust me don't you? I can do it, you defeat the commander." With that Nyx drew her sword and ran towards the zombies, I immeditely jumped on top on a roof where I saw Sohu Kim again.
