RE:BORN Zombie

‘OH SHIT.’ Crockman thought in his mind, as a shadowy figure showed its form through the body of smoke. At the same moment, however, a man with red hair and a slender body wearing some kind of skin-tight suit appeared before them. He seemed to have come from behind, and before they could even ask what was wrong and why he was there, the man began his report.

“Sir! Our men, they have been all eliminated.” The man reported with a bit of a shaking voice.

His report was not responded to afterwards, as those before him did not keep their focus on him for long after he stood before them, they all had their eyes forward, all looking behind him. Following their gazes, he too turned to look behind.

Victor emerged from the smoke and before them, stood unscathed, unlike one who had just engaged in any form of battle or fighting. Everybody couldn’t take their eyes off Victor as they examined and marvelled at the sight before them. In actuality, there wasn’t much to be so surprised about, as this would not be the first appearance of someone who could kill so many. For some reason, however, there seemed to be something that put a kind of fear in their bodies, also the fact that he did so in such little time was unheard of, unless…_.

‘The Crow… This man is no joke at all. No wonder he is a legend.’ The leader of the armoured men said in his mind, and at the same moment, a hard smile formed on his face.

Victor who just stood there for some seconds began with a step forward with a thought in his head, ‘I’ve taken everything I wanted to, so maybe I should leave the city now.’ He was about to teleport out of there when suddenly, his body was sent flying back towards his house. Victor managed to direct his gaze just before his body smashed through the walls of his house, and just then saw the red-haired man screaming towards him. If he wasn’t a zombie, he was sure to bleed from the ears. Even now, who was to say his ear drums were still intact?

As though it was a signal, the sound attack had prompted the other two that stood idle before to attack. Crockman was just behind the other man as they dashed inside the house to meet Victor and take advantage of the situation and apprehend or kill him, but seconds after they entered the building, their bodies came flying back out. Following this, Victor emerged from the house still unscathed, but yet another present was waiting for him as several big crafts had arrived above that location, and multiple people were dropping from them, both hunters and those in exo-skeletal armours.

“You called for backup?” Crockman asked the other man through his teeth while grunting and holding his stomach.

Same with the other man as he picked himself up slowly, he responded, “Yes…” He no longer had a trace of the previous smirk a while back.

‘I could just teleport away, but something tells me I need to take care of that sound guy now before anything else.’ Victor thought to himself as he removed his attention from other unnecessary things and focused it on the red hair for that short moment.

Thinking that he could make that sound attack at the speed of sound or faster, seeing as it is sound, after all, Victor knew that going towards him directly wouldn’t work, so he did the most annoying thing he learned to do back on earth while playing a multiplayer shooter.

CLOSE THE GAP WHILE RUNNING IN CIRCLES.

Such a simple tactic that always worked. Victor mustered as much strength into his legs and moved, and just as he expected, the red hair began his attack sometime after. His attack may be at the speed of sound, but his reaction speed wasn’t, and that gave Victor a head start. Just like it always happened for those that had never been hit with this attack, the red hair kept trying to catch up to Victor, but before long Victor had closed the gap, and with a palm to the chest blasted him away into one of the vehicles parked close by. ‘Good.’

The moment the young man raised his head, not wanting to slack off during a fight and ignoring all the pain to do so, Victor was already before him. As though to show improvement, he was a little bit faster this time in screaming at Victor, point blank range, hurling him quite chaotically, but then Victor disappeared mid-way and appeared beside him. The red-haired man tried to turn quickly and release another attack, but he was stopped as Victor placed a hand over his mouth and one on his throat. What followed next was brutal as Victor dug his hand into the red hair’s neck and turned the inner parts out.

Everything was done now and he was about to teleport out of the city when he felt a familiar kind of energy, ‘holy energy.’ Victor was quick enough to avoid a straight blast of attack directed at him, and by doing so threw the body of the red-haired man to the side. The one using the holy energy quickly landed at the spot where he was and rushed towards the man’s body. Perhaps it wasn’t surprising to see a holy magic user, but to see the informant that he first consulted after getting to the city use holy magic was different. Victor was very sure that he hadn’t perceived any holy energy in her last time they met.

‘I should kill them both.’ He thought, but being alone seemed to be his weakness, as bullets started hurling down from the craft above. Victor managed to dodge a couple, but these bullets were not in any way similar to the ones from a gun, and avoiding them was almost impossible. ‘Ok, that’s enough, I might need to make a ruckus here, if not I will never be left alone.’

The girl turned to face Victor with tears running down from her eyes before taking off with the man in her arms, she could fly it seemed. Everything was happening in such an uncontrolled and uncoordinated manner that if Victor didn’t have his undead mind keeping him level-headed; he would have been easily overwhelmed. Everyone close to him and those that came from the crafts had jumped at Victor or ran towards him, all trying to take him down, even the two he sent flying before, but just before they got to him, Victor only said in his mind before everything went to ashes; ‘Inferno Ring.’ With this, every single body was engulfed in a pillar of fire, and the entire place looked like something created by a devil.

The girl carrying the body had gotten high enough and had actually escaped certain death, and the man he had in her arms had also managed to survive, thanks to her timely intervention. Though it was possible that he may not be able to produce sound for a while, he was still alive and had a chance to recover fully. Looking at her half-baked healing power, she couldn’t help but think, ‘If only I had more of this power…’ At least she could be together with her lover, was what she thought.

Apparently, Victor had a better plan, as he just out of nowhere appeared mid-air as the girl was flying up towards the craft, and in that brief moment beheaded the man and set the body on fire using Infernal breath after taking an arm, before disappearing again. Before the girl could react, it was already too late, and she had to let go of the body that quickly turned into ashes before it reached the intense pillar of flames hovering above the ground.

“NOOOO!!!!!!”
