Lucas looked at the harmonious family. Lucas had experienced different families, as he live in two different world in his previous and the current world. During his previous world he experienced broken families which is common, divorce is everywhere likewise. In this current world betrayal is common even sacrificing his/her family members, yet in this cruel world this family remain like before even there father/husband become zombie. They still accepted him. Lucas smiled unconsciously because family bond is not real for him, but to witnessed this situation made him happy. As, he remember his little lovers; his gaze become soft.
"Mr. Thomas what will you do, right know?" Lucas asked.
"Call me Clark since Clark Thomas died already and he said goodbye." Clark replied.
"So, you will only use your first name Mr. Clark?" Mariam asked in curiosity.
Clark didn't answer. He made a smile which is creepy to look at, yet it has a warm feeling inside. He looked at his former family and look at Lucas in determination.
"Lucas no... Predator can you grant my last two request." Clark said and bow his head.
Lucas shrugged his shoulder. This is the reason, He didn't leave directly since he has a hunch. This Zombie leader will make a request one of them is his former family. He also is curious in his request. He replied.
"Tell me as long it's reasonable."
Clark was relieved in his answer. He feared to asked this thing, since most of the predator is cunning and Savage. Also, Lucas in his observation is more than a Savage he is like an incarnation of death. He replied
"1st Please let my former family be under in your wings. 2nd Make my former family become stronger. Use my own heart take my own bloodstone and nucleus to make them stronger."
Lucas was surprised in his determination. Also, his own subordinates shake there head. They know there leader is faithful before he died even he is not human anymore, yet he still eager to do this kind of decision.
"Why?" Lucas asked in curiosity.
"Because, I'm already tired. Although I am free, but I don't want to life in this rotten world without them. Though it sounds ironic for me to say. I can only live. If I can stay together with them, yet I can't make them to be fallen and stay with the current me." Clark answered him in determination and continued. "So, If my heart is with them. I will be more relieved."
Lucas smirk and look at Mariam, he said.
"Tell me Mariam this is not a Zombie drama right? and they make me like villain in some television?" He asked Mariam.
Mariam made a facepalm since she was in awkward situation, yet. Clark didn't laughed nor smiled once. He is determined in his decision, he is waiting for his judgement and Lucas took his dagger and kill him instantly.
"Lucas spare my father! He didn't mean what he told you earlier. I know Lucas you have a way right? For me and my family to be together without any sacrifice." Rein said while blocking the dagger.
Lucas looked at her in surprise. He was amazed in this family EQ and IQ. He hold his dagger and asked. "Why do you think so?"
"I don't know, but I saw you once taming a Zombie and make them fight another. Also, earlier you summoned elements including a golden lion. I know in my heart you have already surpass the limitation of humanity." Rein answered and whisper "Also, I heard before and told me earlier Hell Butler is a living saint and can make miracles."
"Hahahaha~" Lucas laughed and wave his dagger in his hand. He answered "I can, but I am not a charity person. Who will help other randomly."
Lucas eyes become sharper and a thick killing intent spreading around him like a snake keep an eye on it's prey. Lucas asked "Tell me, why?"
Rein didn't answered him directly, but hang her head and replied. "I don't know, but I hope Lucas can grant my wish."
"Good you're passed! I will grant it, but in exchange you won't say anything and never betray even once." Lucas answered Rein and Pat her head. He continued " don't worry. I know both Jairah and Mariam will be glad if I do this thing."
He smiled at her and looked at Clark including his subordinates. When Clark and the rest of his subordinates heard there conversation. They we're confused at first and shaken at sudden revelation. A person can tame or control other. If, this rumor spread around it will cause chaos, yet this person is still smiling like he doesn't care about anything.
Then they feel the gaze of Lucas. All of them trembled in fear.
"So, Clark gathered your people in front of me, those who want to follow me. Also, the rest can leave since I don't what people can witness the ritual." Lucas said.
Hearing his word. They hesitated before some of them step forward to follow Clark. Among his 20 subordinates only 6 people decided to go with him and the 14 remaining Zombies didn't moved even an inches.
"So, the 14 people remaining. Please go out, once you leave the area. I just hope you won't regret anything."
*30 minutes later*
The ritual finished and 7 zombies can feel. They are more powerful than before. They take full control there consciousness didn't like before since they have thirst, but right they have no thirst for blood or flesh of others. Also, Lucas felt something new inside him was strengthen.
*Ding*
