Chereads / A Gamers Guide to Necromancy / Chapter 35 - Finding Sanctuary

Chapter 35 - Finding Sanctuary

Immediately a slight problem has occurred. There's nine of us and only two beds. Even with them being double beds they can fit three people in each, at a push. That leaves one on the couch, and two on the floor.

Which has led to this...

Watching the girls argue, Shizuka and Kyoko failing to calm them as Saeko watches silently, I sigh for a moment. Miku is arguing that I should get one of the beds, but I'm pretty sure she's planning on joining me, the others are all just freaking out now that we have a moment to relax.

"Everyone! Be quiet!" I shout making them freeze. "Yes, I realise that this isn't ideal... but just bare with it for tonight, tomorrow I'm going to head into the town and gather some supplies to make things more liveable here, we are alive, and that's more than thousands... if not millions of other people can say. We are the lucky ones, let's not waste our luck arguing amongst ourselves." I say making them look away in shame.

"You're going into the town tomorrow?" Saeko asks after a moment. "I will come with you."

"No, right now the only people who can fight are me and you, we can't both leave. I'm good at going unnoticed and the zombies aren't the smartest, it's better if I travel alone." I say making her frown before she nods reluctantly.

"...how can you even do all that stuff?" Toshimi asks with a frown. "Normal people can't just kill monsters like that... you didn't even hesitate."

"Toshimi! He saved us, he doesn't deserve to have you questioning him." Kawamoto immediately jumps in.

"It's fine... she's right after all... I'm not a normal person. I have... some experience with killing, I am... or I suppose was would be closer to the truth now, an assassin, a counter assassin to be exact, and assassin who is trained to hunt other assassins. It's how I ended up in Tokonosu, I was hunting another assassin... until a ditzy nurse ran me over and dragged me to school." I say under my breath making everyone turn to Shizuka, making her blush. I'm just spewing complete bullshit to be honest, but it'll serve as a nice 'background' to explain away why I'm stronger and better trained than any student should be.

In a world of Zombies is a teen assassin really that weird?

"But.. you're our age?" Toshimi continues, looking uncomfortable.

"Well.. yeah? Really if you want a good assassin you have to start training them young. I'm good at going unnoticed, so sneaking through some undead won't be a problem. I even have my damage resistant suit, it should stop any bites from getting through, that's how I didn't get flattened when you ran me over by the way, the suit I was wearing is highly damage resistant." I say to Shizuka making her pause in thought.

That plus I'm a super-human badass mage, but they don't need to know that.

"Still, we can gossip about my past later. Each time you shout at each other you're attracting the undead's attention. This place should be safe, but lets not put ourselves in any more danger than necessary." I say making them pale. "For tonight, just make do. I don't need much sleep anyway, so I'll take the floor. Just make it work." I order, getting reluctant agreement from them.

Everyone disperses, speaking far quieter this time, with the exception of Saeko and Shizuka who stick around.

"...You're an assassin?" Shizuka asks with a troubled look on her face.

"If I was a normal person, I'd be dead... and you'd be starting the apocalypse in a jail cell. Lucky you. If it wasn't for my suit and my above-average body, the hit would have killed me." I say making her blanch.

That's the best way to get her to move on, remind her of how close to being a killer she was.

"You were hunting someone? I wouldn't expect assassins to be in Tokonosu." Saeko says calmly, barely phased.

"Yeah, someone killed a politician and a police officer around here, not sure who but that's what I was sent to find out. Of course I don't have time to hunt a killer now that the world has gone to shit, I have more important things to do. And that's assuming they aren't currently shambling around as a undead abomination." I say, happily blaming the two murders I committed on the mystery assassin. Maybe I'll make my second form act as the 'assassin' and 'kill' him later.

Ah yes, I definitely didn't kill your fathers, it was the mystery assassin called 'Definitely not Kuro'.

"Saeko, we should alternate who is sleeping. One of use should stay on watch." I say making her nod.

"Agreed... if there are some quilts we can take them to the balcony and stay there for the night, watching for danger." she agrees calmly.

"I'll get you two the spare quilts! But it's going to be cold out there..." Shizuka says quickly, wanting to be helpful.

"That's fine. I can handle it... and I suspect Kuro-kun can as well." Saeko says calmly.

"Yeah, the cold is no issue." I agree, as Shizuka runs off to grab some quilts for us.

- Later -

Keeping watch is boring, we've set it up so that we will switch who is watching every four hours. Saeko is sleeping against the wall, wrapped up in a thick quilt.

It's done well at stopping the others from complaining about having to share or sleep on a couch. Having two people sleeping on the balcony makes them realise that they are lucky...

Realistically the Hunter zombies would have gotten us by now, but my Second Form is taking control of all the special zombies he can find and is keeping them away from us.

There's a small horde wandering around the streets, but they haven't noticed us yet. They are attracted to sound, as long as we are quiet they won't notice us at all. And if they do? Well, they aren't smart enough to get passed the wall around the apartment.

As long as my second form keeps up on getting the special ones I'll be fine.

I've seen Miku, Kawamoto and Taniuchi all approach the balcony door, but at the same time I think that Saeko's presence is stopping them from actually approaching me.

Heroes reward is making Kawamoto and Taniuchi want to reward me for saving them, and I think Miku decided the same thing without any outside interference.

Still... my spirits that are lurking around people I see as Key Figures have picked up something interesting... and I'm undecided whether to get involved.

- Yuriko Takagi -

"Put the gun down, now." one of the thugs said angrily as she aimed her pistol at his head.

"Or I could just put you down instead..." she snarled, making him smirk.

"Mum... don't do anything stupid..." Saya said, trembling at the knife being held to her throat.

Her daughter was a fool. She'd convinced Saya to sleep with her, so she could keep an eye on her... and then the idiot got up and went to the bathroom alone in the middle of the night, without waking her up.

Which had led her to this... five men, none of them had guns but they did have blades, they were probably the less important labourers, they'd have guns if they were more important... they were kind of men that Saya liked ranting at to make herself feel special.

She could kill them all... if they weren't using her daughter as a human shield. If she opened fire they'd slit Saya's throat, she wasn't sure she could take both men holding Saya down before they killed her...

As the leader pressed the blade just deep enough to draw blood she sighed, tossing the gun over to the side of the room, watching one of them retrieve it as they all smirked at her.

Despite her idiocy, Saya was still her daughter.

"Good girl... all you have to do is listen and this little bitch won't get her throat slit. Strip, we need to make sure you aren't hiding any other weapons after all.." he said with a deep chuckle as he took the gun, aiming it at Saya's head, his other hand sliding under her tank-top and roughly groping her large breasts as she whimpered..

She'd deliberately wore her least sexy pyjamas, unlike her mini-short wearing daughter... a thick pair of wool pyjamas, hoping to avoid unwanted attention... but there were some things on her body that just couldn't be hidden by thick clothes.

Moving her hands to the buttons she growled at the depraved stares of the men, she was going to kill them all. She actually did have another weapon, she slept with two guns under her pillow just in case...

She just couldn't get to the second gun without being shot yet.

"Look.. you can do what you want to me... just leave Saya out of it." she said as she pulled her top of, exposing her large breasts to the men as they undid they're trousers, pulling out their shafts as they started stroking them while they watched her strip. Moving back she undid her bottoms, letting them drop to the ground as she laid on the bed spreading her legs. "Leave the girl alone, and come experience a woman instead..." she said as they slowly approached her. The leader passed the gun to one of the others as he took a step forwards with a deep smirk.

The moment he did she grabbed the second gun, killing the one holding the gun to her daughters head before he could react, the leaders eyes widened in fear but he couldn't do more than turn before she put a bullet between his eyes.

The men were as pathetic as she expected, with their trousers around their ankles they couldn't run as she calmly gunned down each one with ruthless precision.

"Saya, grab that gun. We're leaving. The mansion isn't safe for us." she said coldly, grabbing some proper clothes and getting dressed.

"We can't leave... there's countless of the undead out there." Saya protested, freezing at her mothers glare.

"The undead are dumb and slow, humans are less so. We'll grab one of the Humvee's and drive into the city, grabbing supplies. We need to find a safe place, and right now the only people we can trust are in this room. You've certainly made enough enemies here with your attitude." she muttered. "And for gods sake, put some clothes on. Something comfy and functional, we don't know how long it'll be before we can change." she ordered as she lead Saya out of the room.

She didn't care what happened to anyone else, her daughter was the last thing she cared about, her husband would have wanted her to protect Saya... even if she was a spoiled princess.

- Kuro -

Huh... I wasn't even needed. I was ready to possess the leader, but it looks like Yuriko really doesn't need my help.

She's a badass, I want her for my group. I'll arrange a 'coincidental meeting' later on. My spirits will keep track of them for now.

So, I've been thinking... I'm leaving too much unfinished. Jumping from world to world without a care. Before I move to the next world, I'm going back to DxD and finishing that world off, I left too many loose ends after all. Then I'll head to back to Overlord and completely finish off that world as well. I don't want to leave a load of worlds incomplete as I move around, there must be limit to how much procrastination I do.

I might even head back to DxD midway through this world, I think I'm powerful enough for Season Two of DxD now anyway.

Also, I'm being stupid about my levelling. I have a second form that I can use for levelling now. I've sent it into the Instant Dungeon to deal with the problem that is the EXP Drain. Then I can actually start finishing off my classes as well, I'm starting to amass a load of classes that I've levelled a bit and then ignored.

Unfinished ends are bad, I should finish what I start.

...being on guard duty is really fucking boring.

- Next Day -

"Are you sure about this? It's going to be dangerous." Kyoko asks hesitantly as I prepare to head out.

"I am, we can't hide here forever, food will run out soon. We need supplies, and we need a safe location to use as a Sanctuary. I have the best chance of surviving out there. Saeko will keep this place safe until I return." I say seriously, putting a pistol in it's holster. We've pried open the weapons cabinet, but none of the others are comfortable with guns so I'm the only one with one. "Don't worry, I'm not going to do anything too crazy, just scout out and look for supplies." I say with a smile.

"...Do you have to go?" Miku asks pressing herself against me.

"For now? Yes. Don't worry, I'll be back soon. I promise." I say patting her on the head making her blush. "Saeko, hold down the fort." I say getting a deep nod from her.

Heading out of the door I don't open the gate, simply scaling it instead as I walk along the walls. Time to see what the city looks like mid apocalypse.

Heading along the walls I jump down, starting to run along the streets. There are undead but they're the slow stupid kind, I have enough stamina to just outrun them all.

Once I get far enough away that they won't be able to see me from the balcony, I pull out the keys to the tank, summoning my Jump Chain Vehicle.

The sleek black Oshkosh L-ATV that appears makes me grin as I climb into the driver seat, sure I don't know how to drive... but it can't be that hard right? That's what INT checks are for.

Besides... does it really matter if I run people over when the people are undead? There's no better time to learn to drive than in the apocalypse.

Which is shown almost immediately as I run over a small pack of zombies, the suspension on this is great, it barely even shook me as I rolled over them.

First things first... we need food and other resources... but my undead have seen something interesting nearby, something that might work amazingly as a sanctuary, better than a school or a police station.

Driving along I keep an eye out for survivors, but all I can sense around me is the corrupted Ki of the undead, no living around here.

Do zombies need to eat to survive? Will they eventually starve? I honestly don't know.

It doesn't take me long to get to my destination... mostly because of my complete disregard for speed limits, but as I do I pull over, only crashing a little bit as I stop my 'car' and get out, looking out at my target.

For reasons I can only blame on my LCK stat, there's a Luxury Yacht near the city, it isn't moving and even from here I can sense the undead within, but it's wonderful...

Judging by it's direction, it was leaving the harbour when the apocalypse started, but an infected was probably already on it when they set off, I think that's how so many infected spread at once.

The Virus was probably already infecting countless people around the world, maybe it was activated by a signal, maybe it was just activated over time. But when it did it made countless people turn to undead, and they then infected more and more people.

At least that's how I would have done it... I played Plague Inc, I know how it works. It simply spread too far too fast for it to be accidental, the apocalypse started in seemingly every country at the same time after all. If it had started by accident it would have begun in one country and spread from there, instead it happened everywhere at once.

So, first things first... I need to clear the Yacht of undead, it's far safer than any building since undead can't swim.

… I tested.

They don't drown either, they just sink to the bottom and just sort of flail around at the bottom of the river... It's actually mildly entertaining.

Locking and de-summoning my tank, I head towards the fishing boat my undead noticed, it's just a shitty row boat but right now that's what I need.

It takes me almost ten minutes to row out to the Yacht, but eventually I pull up to the back of the Yacht... is it called pulling up if it's a boat? Whatever, I climb the ladder at the back, looking around the no doubt ridiculously expensive yacht in approval... it needs some... pest control first, but soon it'll work perfectly as a hideaway, safe from the horrors of the apocalypse.

How did it end up here though?

- Shiro -

You're spoiling him.

Nah, consider it an apology for the troubles my past self caused, nothing more.

...Should I get rid of the Kaijus you unleashed then?

…No. My past self had a good idea, even if he had the wrong intentions.

People grow through strife, the strong grow through conflict. If Kuro is worthy of being a Gamer he will prove himself, if he is not he will die. It's the way of the world, the strong rise up and the weak are beaten to the ground.

Pendragon had a point, I could use a Player Two to spice things up... but as he is now he is simply too weak. Lining up powerful enemies for him will simply speed up his growth, it's just tough love, that's all. Besides, My Hero Academia is a world full of Heroes, he won't have to fight them alone.

And the Death God in his Hub World?

You heard him, he's going back to DxD first. He should be able to gather the power to deal with Hel while there, it'll be interesting to see how it goes. Hel could end him as he is now, if he falls to complacency she will destroy him, if he focuses on gaining strength he will succeed, proving himself worthy of being my Player Two.

Despite everything, you're still an asshole.

That I am, not that you have any room to talk.

- Kuro -

I could just take control of these undead, but I think having a load of corpses to show how hard I worked will be great for showing the others how much they need me.

Which is why I'm just fucking them up, the tight corridors make it hard for them to actually swarm me as long as I don't let them get behind me, and my Sense Dead power is making ambushing me impossible as well.

This is mildly time consuming, but other than that it's no problem at all. Honestly... it reminds me of playing Doom and House of the Dead, just a lot of senseless violence, and that's okay.

There's a reason Doom was so popular after all, sometimes just slaughtering hordes of mobs is just what the doctor ordered... I wish I had a shotgun.

Still, with the ability to hunt them down with my Sense Dead, it doesn't take long for my machete rampage to come to an end, leaving piles of corpses along the hallways... now comes the annoying part. Cleaning.

This is exactly what I have my summons for... summoning my Skeletons I put them to work taking all the corpses to the back of the yacht, next to the ladder, leaving them in a nice big pile.

While they work, I explore the large yacht. It really is almost perfect... plenty of bedrooms, unlimited water that it draws from the sea and purifies, it even has Solar Panels for it's power... my LCK is either amazing, or there's some fuckery going on around here.

It has a larder full of food, and I take a moment to add all the canned non-spoiling goods to it, this place will serve as a wonderful Sanctuary, just as soon as I move the others here.

I take a moment to sunbathe on the deck while my Skeletons work, you can't underestimate the advantage of taking a moment to yourself.

- Wesker -

"...are you certain that the satellite feed is correct?" he asked coldly making the technician jump.

"Yes sir... the Yacht appeared out of nowhere, and now... well..."

"Now there are Skeletons moving around on it. And a sunbathing teenager. Why is he naked?" he asked to himself.

"...Maybe he doesn't want tan-lines?" the technician asked, freezing as he glared at him.

This was unexpected. And scientifically unexplainable... he needed answers, and he needed them immediately.

He didn't get here by being reckless however. Just attacking the Yacht was a bad idea given the potential powers of a teen capable of animating and commanding skeletons, no... he needed someone on the inside. He needed an infiltrator, and he knew just who to send.

Teenagers were hormonal creatures, and he knew someone who was very good at controlling hormonal men.

- Kuro -

Row, row, row your boat gently down the stream...

Heading back to the shore I summon my 'tank' again, really more of a armoured car than a tank but whatever.

Heading back to the apartment, I speed through the undead just mowing them down, they way I see it the more I run down the better in the long run. There has to be a limit to the amount of undead after all, and the more I kill the lower the overall amount gets.

It's basic logic.

It reminds me of trying to get the achievement in Dead Rising 1, the one for killing something like a fifty thousand zombies. The best way to get it was to use a vehicle and mow them down in the tunnels for hours.

The things I did for achievements...

Pulling up at the apartment, I give Saeko a wave as she watches from the balcony, getting one back despite her bemused look at my new ride, coated in zombie blood.

Climbing over the gate again, I head into the apartment, giving the girls a smirk as they rush me. Miku crashes into me, wrapping her arms around me.

"You're alive!" she says excitedly.

"Told you I'd be fine, didn't even get a scratch... Right everyone, I've found us a far safer long term base. We're moving out. We need to load all the guns from the cabinet into my new ride, no point leaving resources behind. Once that's done, everyone grab anything you want to bring with you and get into the mini-bus. Saeko, when I open the gate so we can move the weapons, you stand guard and stop anything from passing through." I order quickly as I move over to the cabinet, grabbing as much as I can carry. "Girls, help me carry them." I order after they don't move.

Saeko heads out to open the gate and stop the undead from sneaking in, the others reluctantly help carry the weapons. It's not that they don't want to help, it's the fact that it's guns that they're carrying that is throwing them off.

It takes a couple of trips, but soon the back of the tank is loaded with guns and ammo, and the girls are filing into the mini-bus. I try to ignore that they've seemingly brought Shizuka and Rika's wardrobes with them... I'll have to loot a mall at some point just to get them more fitting clothes other than their uniforms.

"Right, Shizuka you drive the mini-bus. Just follow behind me and I'll lead us to our new home... it's not far." I promise as she gets in the drivers seat. As I get into my tank Saeko joins me, taking the passenger seat with a small smile, not saying anything.

As we drive along the corpse covered roads, you can see where I have been by the amount of squashed corpses covering the ground...

"Kuro... look." Saeko says gesturing down one of the side roads making me slow down as I look over, spotting a pair of woman running from the horde, the older of the two occasionally firing back into them. "Should we help?" she asks calmly, not looking concerned about my answer.

Turning the car, I gesture for the mini-bus to stop before I speed up going down the side road, simply ploughing into the horde chasing the pair.

"Get in, quickly." I order, reaching back and opening the side door. The pair pause, but the younger of them jumps in after a moment making her mother climb in as well.

LCK I love you... I didn't even need to set up a fake encounter to get these two in my group.

As Yuriko shuts the door, I turn the tank around, speeding away from the horde.

"Thank you... we weren't expecting to see any other groups." Yuriko admits, silencing Saya with a glare before she can speak.

"You got lucky, if Saeko hadn't spotted you we would have driven passed. We're moving to a safe location, safer than anywhere else I've seen at least... you're welcome to join us, I'm Kuro by the way." I offer quickly, making her smile slightly, still she isn't quite sold on it from the hesitance.

"We'll see, for now let's just get away from the horde. We had a car ourselves but one of the massive ones smashed it, we were lucky that it decided to throw the car afterwards otherwise we would have been swarmed." she says catching her breath as she checks her gun with a frown. Someone's running out of ammo.

"Why do you have so many weapons?" Saya asks quickly, looking back into the back of the vehicle.

"One of our group was room-mates with a member of the SDF, she had a weapons cabinet. We looted it when we left." I say gesturing to the mini-bus following us.

"You're Saya aren't you? I saw you at school a few times." Saeko says changing the subject.

"I am... and you're the captain of the Kendo team. Is that Hayashi-Sensei and the school nurse in the bus?" she asks looking back.

"It is, everyone from our group is from our school." Saeko says calmly.

"Including him? I've never seen him before." Says says suspiciously.

"It was my second day at Fujimi when all this happened, I'm not surprised you didn't see me." I say as I focus on the road, it'd be embarrassing if I crashed with witnesses...

"I don't know whether you're lucky or unlucky... this is happening everywhere after all." Yuriko says sadly.

"True, but I think I would have been safer in a village in the middle of nowhere than in a highly populated city. Still, nothing to do about it now I suppose." I say with a smile. "We're almost there... I think I found something pretty nice for us." I say as I see the ocean ahead.

"What do you... wait, the Yacht? You want to use the Yacht as a hideout?" Saya says as it comes into view.

"Yeah, it has electricity since it's solar powered, it has a water purifier, food, undead can't get to it, and I cleared out the ones already on it earlier. Undead can't swim after all, they just sink. I checked." I say making her frown thoughtfully.

"We should join them, it's safer than heading back out on our own." she says to her mother after a moment making Yuriko sigh, before she nods.

- Yuriko -

"I suppose we should, I guess we'll be taking you up on that offer. I am Yuriko Takagi, this is my daughter Saya. I suppose we'll be working together from now on, strength in numbers after all." she says calmly.

She still was going to be sleeping with a gun though... one man and a horde of women? The probability of that happening by coincidence were fairly low, and she had seen what the apocalypse could to to people. She'd seen Kuro's eyes take in her body when he looked back, she couldn't blame him completely, he was a teen and her clothes had been torn in the crash and following rush to escape the undead, barely providing any coverage any more.

One of her breasts was practically hanging free, her shirt and bra torn apart... she'd probably feel less exposed if she was completely topless. Her torn jeans at least covered her most private places but it felt like her clothes had torn in the most sexy way possible, but that didn't make sense.

Still, there was no denying that him being willing to stop for them had saved them, if he'd driven passed she and Saya would be dead. He could look she supposed, she wouldn't hold teenage hormones against him, but if he tried touching they would have a problem.

"We brought a full wardrobe of clothes with us in the bus, so you can use some of those clothes when we get to the Yacht to... cover up." he said as he pulled up, not looking at her exposed breast as he deliberately looked away from her making her smile slightly.

At least he was willing to give her some privacy now, she couldn't blame him for being surprised at suddenly seeing a naked tit hanging free, any teen would stare for a moment.

"For now though, can you help get the weapons into the boat? You can get changed on the Yacht but we're not safe here just yet." he said, gesturing to a small row-boat.

He had a point... there were bigger things to worry about than her decency.

- Kuro -

...It took a few trips and almost two hours, but we did it.

"Did you kill all those?" Saya asks getting my attention as she points to the large pile of corpses on the back of the Yacht.

"I did, I'm going to move them to the main land eventually, but I don't want them just floating around the ship. But I have bigger things to worry about than that right now. I think I moved them all from inside the Yacht, and I definitely got all the zombies in my clearing. I was very through." I say deadpan. "Still, it's kinda messy in there... might be worth cleaning up the blood if we are going to be living here... I've already picked the master bedroom as mine, and I'm not budging on that.." I say calmly.

"Why do you get the master bedroom? What makes you special?" Saya asks glaring with her arms crossed.

"Uhh... because he found the Yacht? Because he cleared it out? Because he's in charge of our group? Take a pick princess." Miku says jumping to my defence.

"And why is he in charge? It takes more than brute strength to lead." she scowls.

"Because he is the one who got us out of the school alive, most of us would be dead if it wasn't for him, so watch it, new girl. We like him a lot more than we like you, I would have left you if it was up to me." Misuzu says coldly. "It's better than increasing our group with people who are just going to cause trouble."

"That's enough, All of you. Misuzu that was uncalled for. Saya, she's still right. He saved you, and all of us. He might not be the oldest but he is in charge, remember that if you're joining us." Kyoko says calmly, giving me a smile.

"We shouldn't be arguing amongst ourselves anyway. Everyone, pick a room and get settled in. This is going to be our home for the foreseeable future after all." I say soothingly, using maturity to make everyone feel like children being scolded.

"Shizuka, this place actually has a small infirmary, there's no rush but I want you to go over it and see if it's missing anything, if it is I'll raid a hospital or a pharmacy later on and gather more supplies." I say getting her attention.

"Will do Kuro-kun... just be careful when you go on your raids... I wouldn't want anything to happen to you because you got cocky." she says in worry.

"I will be, but if I'm the leader here then it's my responsibility to keep us all safe and supplied, and I take my responsibilities very seriously." I say ignoring the whole running away from the pregnant Akeno thing.

+6 Affection with Shizuka [53/100] for being a good leader.

+7 Obedience with Shizuka [44/100] for being in charge

[Doctor/Patient Relations] – Shizuka Marikawa [50]

Affection and Obedience grows faster with medical staff

+10 Affection and Obedience with everyone in the Sanctuary for finding them a good shelter

[Most Popular Guy in Class] – Kawamoto Hideyori [50]

Affection and Obedience grows faster with classmates

[Bi Lure] – Taniuchi Hitomo [50]

Affection and Obedience grows faster with bisexuals

Well.. that's a thing.

Still, it's a nice bonus since that adds up to a lot of Affection and Obedience. The more they become obedient the less problems there will be in the long run.

...Exp Drain is no joke at the higher levels, my Second Form is slaughtering hordes of Demons with my undead, but the exp is barely increasing the level. I can see why it is a penalty.

Oh well, all it is taking from me is time. It's an inconvenience but one I can handle with enough time and effort.

Heading to the master bedroom I toss my clothes off, grabbing another pair of silk boxers from my inventory. I brought all my silk clothes with me obviously, and I take a moment to fill the wardrobes with them. The guy who used to own this bedroom was bigger than me so his clothes won't fit me.

He had good taste though. I'm sure the zombie who killed him thought the same, though not in the same way.

Laying down on the bed I take a moment to breathe. Now that we have a secure base, we don't have to be so on guard all the time, but I need a way to find survivors that won't break the not letting magic be seen rule.

My Spirits can find them, but I can't admit I'm using the spirits of the dead to track people down...

I know what I need... but first I need to find it.

Ehh, that's for later. It's nap time. I didn't sleep much last night, and while I don't 'Need' sleep, I want it.

Letting myself drift off I enjoy the clearly expensive sheets, I don't know who owned this before, but they sure had good tastes... and a lot of money.

- Later -

Waking up as someone enters my room, I sit up slowly with a yawn, freezing as I look down the barrel of a gun, Yuriko aiming it straight for my head.

"...hello to you too. Something I can help you with?" I ask taking a breath as she glares at me, pressing the barrel against my head.

"I have questions, and you're going to answer them for me... the others were talking about you earlier, about how you were an assassin. I'm sure you can guess why I'd be somewhat upset that there was a hired killer in the same town where my husband was murdered... even if the killer committed suicide we never found out why he suddenly turned on my husband after all. What do you know of Souichiro Takagi's death? What part did you play?" she asks quickly.

"...Get that gun out of my face." I say taking a deep breath. "I don't respond well to threats."

I'm not letting anyone threaten me. It would weaken my position as the leader, and maybe it's the Overlord in me, but I just don't like being threatened by someone I could snap in two.

"Talk and I'll consider it." she replies immediately.

"You know... you really shouldn't get that close with a gun..." I say calling on my inhuman speed to dodge to the side and grab her arm, flipping her over as I pull the gun from her grasp, tossing it off to the side. "It's a ranged weapon for a reason." I say as I grab her arms, pinning her to the bed as I sit on her.

- Yuriko -

In hindsight this wasn't her best idea, but in truth she'd barely heard the schoolgirls get further than mentioning he used to be an assassin before she'd rushed off in a rush.

If she'd been thinking better, she wouldn't have gotten so close. But grief did strange things to people.

As she struggled against his grip, she could believe that he was a trained killer, his grip didn't even budge despite her struggles, he was far stronger than her despite his smaller teen body.

"Seriously... who wants to wake up to a gun?" he muttered in annoyance.

"Wouldn't a killer like you be used to threats?" she snarled in anger making him laugh.

"I guess, but it doesn't mean I like it. And I didn't kill your husband woman, I'm a counter-assassin, I hunt assassins. I came to Tokonosu to hunt down an assassin who was hired to kill your husband and some police officer who had gotten too close to some case or other." he said in annoyance making her pause.

She did remember hearing about a detective being found dead recently... she hadn't really thought about it with her own troubles.

"Then who killed him? Who were you hunting?" she asked stopping her struggles.

"Some asshole called Shiro, he's a pretty infamous assassin in the right circles, he's an psycho but he's good at what he does. Mostly specialises in political assassinations, but he'll kill anyone if there's enough money in it. I'm pretty sure he blackmailed your husbands guard into killing your husband and then himself, that's what the file said anyway." Kuro said with a shrug. "I never found him after I got run over on my first day here... and then Shizuka dragged me to school. Oh, and then the world ended and I had bigger problems to worry about. If you're lucky he got eaten, I doubt it though, killers tend to survive during a crisis." he shrugged letting her hands go and sitting up, still sat on her legs.

Shiro... she had a name to blame for most of her troubles...

"I.. I apologise, I wasn't thinking straight." she admitted as he got off her, hopping off the bed and stretching with a yawn.

"I'll let you off this time, but if you pull a gun on me again, I will punish you. Is that clear?" he asked as his eyes took on a dangerous glint making her take a step back in fear. Nodding quickly, the glint vanished leaving him looking friendly again as he smiled. "Lovely, now if you don't mind... go away." he said climbing back into his bed and getting under the covers.

...You'd think an assassin would be less sleepy.

- Kuro -

Walking up a second time to someone entering my room, I have to admit I'm a bit pissed.

I just want some sleep dammit.

Rolling over I make eye contact with Miku as she prowls towards the bed, wearing nothing but her lacy pink underwear.

Okay fine, I can forgive her this time.

"So... I promised you I would be grateful if you got me out of the school alive... you've done that, and now it's time to give you my gratitude." she says as she undoes her bra, letting it drop to the ground leaving her large breasts exposed, hanging free in the air, her nipples hardening in the cold air, I like the cold so I sleep with my windows open. "Everyone else is exploring this place, which means I've finally got you alone."

"That you have, it's nice to have a break from everything." I say sitting up with a smirk.

Miku's a simple girl, she simply attaches herself to the most powerful person around and uses them for protection, right now that's me.

As she climbs onto the bed she crawls forwards, kissing me deeply. Her tongue dancing with with mine.

"Just lay back... you've saved us all, it's time for your reward." she whispers, kissing down my chest.

- Miku Yuuki -

Opening her mouth she took the surprisingly large shaft into her mouth happily, keeping eye contact with him as she swallowed his dick in one movement.

She'd clearly made the right choice following him, she'd seen so many of her former classmates as those mindless monsters, classmates she might have been with if she hadn't seen him waiting.

The world was much more simple than people made it, if you were strong and powerful you got to do what you wanted, if you were weak you should find someone strong to protect you, and do whatever you needed to in order to keep their protection.

Kuro was strong, she and the others were weak. So he was in charge, it was that simple.

The other girls would have an easier life if they learnt to accept that, this Yacht was basically Kuro's kingdom, and no matter how nicely he put it. His word was law.

As someone with no skills worth mentioning in a situation like this, she had only one thing to offer, herself.

She was actually smarter than people realised, she got good grades, never failed a test... but what good was maths in an apocalypse? She wasn't a genius like Saya, she was just decently smart, and that meant she was completely out of her depths at the end of the world.

She didn't care what Kuro did before this started, and she didn't care what he did from now on, frankly he could declare himself a god and demand they all worship him and she'd be the first to kneel.

If that's what it took to survive the apocalypse, that's what she'd do. After all, what did the laws and morality of modern civilization mean now? Modern civilization would frown on Kuro treating all the girls as his own private harem, but modern civilization was also being chewed on by a zombie at the moment, so what did that matter?

She already knew he had some sexual relationship with Shizuka, she'd noticed the embarrassed looks Shizuka gave him, the fact that his clothes were in her apartment, with only one of the bedrooms not locked... there weren't any blankets out for him to have slept on the couch after all, that only left her bed for him to have slept in. She'd seen the lustful gazes of the two girls he saved as they were escaping the school, the curious looks from Kyoko-sensei, the obsessive staring of Saeko.

It was basic animal logic, every pack had an Alpha, and Kuro was theirs. Humans were animals, and a strong male would be surrounded by willing females.

Focusing on pleasuring the Alpha, she smirked at the surprisingly nice taste of his pre-cum, she could get used to that flavour easily...

Suppressing her gag reflex she took the shaft deeper in her mouth until her lips kissed the base, her hands gently massaging his balls as she massaged his shaft with her tongue.

She was pretty surprised he was lasting this long to be honest, usually she could make a guy cum in only a couple of minutes, but Kuro was clearly cut from a different cloth, holding his own despite her oral talents...

Pulling back she wrapped the shaft in between her breasts gently stroking it as she smirked at him.

"I suppose Shizuka's are better? I don't quite have her... natural gifts." she said watching his eyebrow raise for a second before he laughed.

"She was pretty good, and you're smarter than you act aren't you?" he asked making her smirk mischievously, kissing the tip of his shaft as she bounced, she could feel him starting to twitch.

Just as he came she took the tip into her mouth, swallowing the bafflingly tasty cum quickly. His load was bigger than expected, but maybe she should just expect everything about Kuro be be better than expected, despite the large amount she made short work of it, pulling back as a small amount of cum leaked from her mouth, trailing down onto her chin.

Looking at the still hard shaft she giggled, climbing up and mounting him as she grasped his shaft gently and aimed it.

She was a virgin, despite the rumours that she'd put out for anyone, she'd never needed something from a guy that was worth her virginity after all, her life however was very much worth it... besides, did being a virgin even mean anything in an apocalypse?

All she could think off was that virgin slaves would be worth more if a bandit like society started up.

Lowering herself onto his shaft she bit her lip at the temporary pain as his dick pierced through her hymen, taking a brief moment to adjust to the feeling before she started moving again.

Once the pain faded, the feeling of his hard shaft rubbing against her insides sent waves of pleasure through her body making her moan out loud, she'd heard that the first time was supposed to be painful and awkward, but apparently those girls didn't have their first time with someone like Kuro... their loss.

Smiling down at him, she had to admit... she was ready to sacrifice her body to get his protection... but this didn't feel much like a sacrifice at all.

- Kuro -

Walking up, I smile at the feeling of Miku cuddling against me. I really like having someone with me when I wake up. Was it slightly wasteful to spend the whole night with her? Probably, but I earned it I suppose.

[He's Popular with the Gal's] – Miku Yuuki [50]

Affection and Obedience grows faster with Gyarus

Huh... she's a Gyaru? I guess I can see it, but I always expect them to be more tanned.

Getting out of bed I have to spend a moment considering something else... do I care about saving Alice? My spirits found her and her father hiding in an abandoned store, but I doubt they will survive without outside interference.

Do I care to save some child? She'll just be a drain on resources... also her father is an unknown, I don't know a single thing about him. That being said it feels wrong to let her die, maybe it's the fact that she's a named character? Thousands of children will have died by now, but she feels different.

I'll keep some spirits watching for now, I can translocate if I really need to... but for now how would I even explain knowing where she is? Unless I went on a raid and 'happened to go that way'.

Hmm... things for later. More importantly my spirits have found my secret weapon...

A military-grade drone, it has great range and battery, and I can use it to 'find' people after my spirits do. Plus, having someone patrol the area with it could be very useful for scouting purposes.

There's only one tiny problem. It's in a military base that has been completely overrun. I'm guessing some survivors were holding out there before the Tank lurking around the base broke the line and the undead got inside. With no more living nearby they have just stayed around the base aimlessly wandering.

I could rampage through there, full Overlord mode of course... but that would give the game away rather quickly... still, I think I might have a solution to that.

That being the sexy sniper currently stealthing through the city... she went to the apartment first... and we left quite the trail for her to follow, it's hard not to notice the countless undead we mowed down on our way here. Which means soon she'll be at the harbour... wonderful. A fine addition to my collection. We don't have a shooter after all.

Today might just be a busy day.

- Daily life in the Multiverse – Operational Security - AN

"I can handle this alone, sending two full teams is overkill." she said with a roll of her eyes, pausing as Wesker stared at her, his eyes hidden behind his sunglasses... who wears sunglasses indoors? Douche.

"The target has unknown powers, like nothing we have seen before. As of now he and the retrieval of Project Alice is our highest priority. You will infiltrate his Yacht, he seems to have a small group of survivors living there. Teams Wolfpack and Echo Six will move into the town and set up, preparing for an assault if it becomes necessary. Project Alice can wait, I know where she is and I can retrieve her whenever I desire. Her powers are a known factor, I can predict how she will act, what she will do... this new factor is a complete unknown, and I will not allow a unknown to ruin everything at this late stage of my plan." Wesker monologued... he did like the sound of his own voice.

Joining up with a madman who was trying to... or would that be has succeeded in destroying the world was not her best plan, but it was better than dying... there were very few safe places any more, and she was always the type to join the winning team...

- Himawari's Past – A Quest -

She was on a mission, of the utmost importance. Himawari was hiding something from her...

She had a cream on her lips earlier, but when Chouchou wiped it off and tasted it she couldn't recognise it at all... it was like nothing she had tasted before.

It took moments before she was craving more... and she was a connoisseur of foods, she knew all the treats in Konoha and the cream had not been from any of them. Her pride as an Akimichi swore it.

So, she was on a quest to find out where the cream was from. Himawari had lied about it, claiming it was from one of the cakes from the new store that had opened up... but she had already tried all of those.

It was none of them...

"...you know I can see you right?" Himawari asked making her freeze. "Seriously, you're trying to sneak up on someone with the Byakugan..." she said in bemusement.

"...you'll have to go back there eventually. I'll find out where that delicious cream comes from." she sword making Himawari pause.

"You want some cream that bad? Fine, but we have to do this my way..." she said with a dark smile.

This was a trap...

"Deal." But it was a trap that lead to the secret cream...

- Later -

Okay... she knew they were ninjas... but wasn't Himawari taking this secrecy thing a little bit too seriously?

The blindfold she could almost understand... the Fuuinjutsu ear muffs were kinda overkill... but was it really necessary for her arms to be bound behind her back? Or for her legs to be tied together as she kneeled in a mysterious place.

"Can I get some cream now? Himawari? You didn't just leave me did you?" she asked, feeling one of her ear muffs be lifted allowing the sound to return.

"Just be patient, it's almost ready. Open your mouth and it'll be here soon." she said in amusement. As she opened her mouth wide she heard Himawari giggle. "Stick your tongue out as well." she ordered making Chouchou roll her eyes under her blindfold, if this got her the cream sooner than sure... she must look like a fool.

Feeling something be pushed into her mouth she licked at it, before pausing... she could definitely taste the cream now... but what was the thing it was coming out... that's a penis.

Her eyes shot open as the man started thrusting into her mouth, she tried to bite down but her jaw failed to close.

"Sorry, but I've used a little Jutsu Sensei taught me to paralyse your mouth, it's normally used to take out a leg or arm but it works well here... you wanted the cream so badly? You're going to get it." she said in amusement as the man fucked her helpless mouth, she pushed at his shaft with her tongue wanting to push him out, before she realised she was just making it feel better for him.

Her chakra was failing her making Himawari giggle again.

"Oh, and the ropes you let me put on you? ANBU grade used by the T&I division, made for holding captured ninjas." she giggled making Chouchou pause.

Himawari wouldn't have access to ANBU grade gear, which meant the guy had them. That cut down on the amount of people it could be currently abusing her mouth.

Wincing as he gripped her hair, she could only kneel there completely helpless as she was used for a unknown mans pleasure, she could feel Himawari kneeling behind her as she slid her hands beneath Chouchou's clothes, groping her breasts, while she did so she placed kisses and nips along her neck making Chouchou feel unwanted pleasure, her panties slowly growing damp under Himawari's bafflingly skilled fingers, one of Himawari's hands slid lower, sneaking under her shorts and panties to finger her.

As the man grunted, she felt his seed fill her mouth, the taste sending her over the edge as she came around Himawari's fingers, letting out a moan as she swallowed without thinking.

Feeling the man pull back she coughed, her throat hurting slightly after the abuse.

"There you go, exactly what you wanted..." Himawari giggled as she undid the ropes, the moment her hands were free she grabbed her blindfold and lifted it, frowning at the empty room.

- Days Later -

She had wondered why they had left her without trying to keep her quiet... she hadn't wondered for long.

The mans cum was extremely addictive, and it took no time at all for her to be craving another dose. Himawari had outright teased her about it when she was confronted.

She had planned on confronting Himawari and making her undo whatever Jutsu the man used to make people addicted to him, instead she got mocked and molested before Himawari left telling her that when she couldn't resist any more she could always beg for her fix.

Himawari had changed a lot, she was just acting the part of the old Himawari, and no-one had noticed.

Which had lead her to try and work out who was responsible... a mystery that didn't even take her that long to figure out.

T&I equipment + Being in a position to corrupt Himawari = Kuro-Sensei.

Of course all she had to do was turn him in to the Hokage... just head to the tower and tell Lord Naruto that his daughter had been taken advantage of by her teacher...

Standing outside his house she cursed her weakness. Nothing tasted right any more... she was desperate for another fix.

Heading to the door, she went to knock, freezing as it opened seemingly on it's own.

The entryway was... intimidating, but she pushed through flinching as the door shut behind her.

Following the sounds she walked upstairs, hesitating at the bedroom door from the sounds of debauchery coming through it...

Pushing through she opened the door, freezing at the sight of a woman on her hands and knees being railed from behind by a amused looking Kuro.

As she walked through the door without thinking, it shut behind her, the sounds of a lock clicking making her wince.

Looking at the woman again she felt her heart grow cold... there were exactly two women with that skin colour in Konoha... and it wasn't her.

"M-mother?" she asked in shock as Kuro spanked her mothers ass in amusement.

"Don't worry, she isn't even cheating. Chouji knows where she is. Chouji has like seven side-chicks himself... your dad is a player, not as much as me but he's trying." he said as he pulled out. "Take a break Karui... it looks like your daughter really does take after you." he chuckled as he walked towards her, his shaft swinging with every step.

"I... I don't... what's going on?" she stuttered.

"Kneel." he ordered, before she could think about it she dropped to her knees, making her eyes go wide as he stopped in front of her. "Your father was completely incapable of handling your hot-tempered mother at first, and he came to me for advise... long story short, I ended up training Karui myself to be the perfect submissive, and I trained Chouji to be as dominant as me, well almost. But Karui here is addicted to my dick, even after her training was complete she kept crawling back so they came to a agreement, Chouji could use his new talents to train a new submissive and she could keep coming to me. Honestly, it's lucky you didn't come out looking a lot more pale if you get my meaning... I've certainly creampied her enough times for it to be a possibility. And now, you've come crawling to me..." he said in amusement.

"N-no... that's not why I'm here." she said, the words sounding hollow even to her. Instead of answering he simply pressed his shaft against her lips, making her mouth drop open.

As he slid his dick into her mouth she glanced at her mother, expecting judgement. Her eyes widened at the sight of her mother masturbating to the sight. She could taste her mothers own arousal on his shaft as he took her mouth again.

"You aren't fully trained yet, but you're a natural submissive. Don't worry, soon enough you'll be just as well trained as your mother." he said stroking her hair as she looked up at him in shock.

She'd always wanted to be like her mother... and as he pulled her hair, forcing her to take his shaft deeper, she could only realise just how little she actually knew about her own family.

He sped up quickly, he had been inside her mother for a while at a guess, as his climax approached quickly, before long she was desperately gulping down another load of that addictive cum...

As he moved back he looked her other with a critical eye.

"Karui, you're daughter is wearing entirely too much. Strip her then put her on the bed." he ordered making her mother pounce.

She was a Genin... and her mother was a very good Jōnin, it was no surprise that she stood no chance as she was immediately stripped and thrown onto the bed by her mothers skilled hands, she'd clearly stripped women before.

"Don't worry baby... it will all make sense soon, Master isn't a bad man, you'll see." she whispered into her ear, firmly but gently holding her in place as Kuro joined them, his still hard shaft pressing against her virgin slit as he smirked at her.

As he sheathed himself inside her, her mind went blank... not from the expected pain, but from a mind-numbing amount of pleasure.

"See? Master rewards good behaviour... could you really go through your life without this?" her mother asked as she moaned, maybe it was having her biggest authority figure telling her that it was okay, but she couldn't bring herself to resist as he violated her.

This felt... so good.
