I was surprised by this kid’s maturity. I am not this mature back when I was in his age and seeing him act and think like an a.d.u.l.t seems to be off. He is giving off a vibe similar to Eve and I didn’t know if he is doing it intentionally or just trying to act like an a.d.u.l.t.

”Hey, kid. I know you are under severe experiences and might have to adapt prematurely to keep up with this world’s new order. But don’t you think you are trying too hard to become like an a.d.u.l.t?” Souichi spoke what I wanted to say.

”What are you talking about? This is how I really act. You don’t need to think too much about it.”

”So you are saying this base is not a good place to stay? What are your reasons why this place is not a good place?”

”I may look like this but I can see that this place will soon be overwhelmed by the enemies after two weeks. The makeshift walls created to defend against those walkers will not last long from their assault and if we add the mutated ones on the fray, these walls will not last more than a week. I can tell that the foundation of the makeshift walls made are now looking grim and just a few more assault from them, this base will collapse,” Kogure said.

”Are you sure you are not speaking gibberish about this base?”

”How dare you doubt me, I am a genius, if I am wrong, it can be only slightly wrong, not entirely wrong.”

”Kyosei, I think you picked up a weirdo kid. I guess Nanami and Izayoi would be able to have a click with this guy,” Souichi whispered.

”I can hear you, you know. If you want to talk something behind my back, it is better if you talk to me face to face. I may be a kid but my brain is much superior compared to you.”

”Accept it Souichi, this kid just inflicted serious burns on you.”

”Kyosei!? The heck man!”

”Anyways, this kid has a point. I already noticed it before but I am too busy to care about it. I am also thinking to find a good place to relocate the group,” I said.

”You will also ask the SDF to relocate?”

”Of course. The more people we can trust, the faster we can do things. Besides, the SDF has a variety of experiences in things that normal people has no idea. It would be a good idea to have our other civilian guys to experience to learn to shoot at least a pistol and the soldiers would definitely help on that.”

”Hoh, I thought I am the only one thinking far ahead in the future. Good, good.”

”Alright then, we can’t just continue to idly chat. Call Nanami or anyone assigned in the medical department to check up this kid for wounds and disinfect them if there is any.”

Souichi pulled out the radio transceiver and contact the people assigned on the Medical Team. A few minutes later, the twins, Rin and Ren appeared.

”Hello Kyosei, it’s been a while since we interacted like this,” Ren said.”

”Don’t be so melodramatic, we always meet in the kitchen and the medbay. There is no need for you to act like we did not see each other for months or years. It’s only been days.”

”As always, Kyosei has no tolerance in flirting. Just give it up, sis. He is not going to take a bite on your bait,” Rin grinned as she tap her sister’s shoulder.

”Haha, I am just teasing him to see him smile just a little bit but his stoic reaction still remained, there is nothing I can do about that. I thought he already purchased the ”harem protagonist in an apocalyptic world” which is very common in things like this,” Ren giggled.

”I don’t know what you are talking about but I get this urge to strangle someone after hearing your quotes,” I muttered.

”Anyways, is this the kid you mentioned earlier, Sou? ” Rin pointed on Kogure.

”Yep. Kyosei asked me to send this kid to the medbay but I decided to pass the flag on you girls. I don’t like dealing with that kid,” Souichi said.

”Don’t worry, the feeling is the same,” Kogure said before going with the twins.

After taking the kid with a savage mouth, I decided to check up on the situation of the base last night on Souichi. The night this time around is quite tame compared to the previous Night Rage.There are special infected like the Hurlers and Pukers but other than that, they only faced with the normal undead under the influence of the Night Rage, allowing them to survive the night without any casualties and damage.

When the Night Rage concluded for the day, the SDF managed to harvest 27 kilograms of Piyavka which is pretty decent despite only seeing Pukers and Hurlers. Not bad for a start of harvest. We parted ways with Souichi as he still have to continue his guard duty for the day as he was resting last night.

Feeling hungry already, I decided to head to the cafeteria to grab some grub to eat. Laika came along since she noticed that I am going for the food. She didn’t eat last night due to the trouble with the Night Rage on the road so giving her an appropriate reward would be satisfactory enough.

While passing by, I can tell that many of the soldiers here are already too tired from the continuous battles they have faced before. Unlike the war, the enemies this time is considered as undying and never needing anything to just survive as they have no use of it. The morale of the group is getting low.

Aside from that, the tower is not so reliable when it came to enemies bigger than the Tsutenkaku Tower so if there is another appearance of the Behemoth and decided to attack, this place will go down immediately and many will die. I needed to discuss this matter to Haru so that he will agree to relocate soon.

There are no activities I can participate right now in the tower with the other soldiers so I decided to check on Nanami for now and ask her for any information regarding to the actions of Tokyo and on how we will be able to reclaim Osaka from the dead. However, me and Laika will have to eat some for now since I am already starving.

Some of the food looted yesterday already became an ingredient for breakfast today and my stomach is satisfied to eat cooked food instead of eating food from cans. My tongue and stomach seems to get upset if I eat a few more.

Laika went to sleep while I decided to go and continue to the control room. The moment I entered the door of the Control Room, I can already hear the voices of Nanami and the guys in the chat of hackers from around the world managed to connect in a single laptop. Nanami noticed me and she put down the headphone she was using and pull it out of her laptop, allowing the laptop’s speaker to speak, allowing anyone who is currently speaking to be able to speak their matters.

”Oh, Kyosei. You are back! How are things going?” Nanami asked.

”Nothing much. Things are still not too good even though the outbreak did not occur that long. Those cults I raided last time is already dead but things are still not going too much since a new one appeared and almost got me killed.”

”If you want to eliminate the cult, I will ask for Kota to le us get the Cult destruction mission so that we can earn some contribution too and use it for our supply procurement.”

”By the way, how are things going on the scanning? Did we finally get good imagery to how we can get enough info and some experts of the future? We can’t afford to just dilly dally on with this as the tower will not be our permanent base.”

”Of course Kyosei. Things are pretty bad way it was before. But when the apocalypse began, chaos ensue. The cult might just be people trying to find some people they can think of helping.”

”I don’t think so, however, based from their behaviors and gears they will be a tougher opponent. Aside from that, they seemed to have started to do human target practice. If they continue to exist, death is the only one ending for everyone.”
