A/N: And yeah, I decided to go to Drew first, before the next episode. If you don't want to read it, you could skip the chapters about Drew and wait for the continuation of the story. Although there was some info in here.
Anyway, just relax, read, and enjoy!
----
A green box popped in front of Drew asking him questions he wanted to ask.
He looked in front of him and opened his mouth, "How to win this game?"
The green box showed a loading sign, then a word showed up in front of him, making his mouth turned to a thin line.
His hand turned into a fist, as anger overtook him.
The answer he got...
You gotta be kidding him!
The light blurred his sight and the place he came out was the forest. In front of him was a dilapidated hospital.
This place...
This was one of the rural places...
Why was he here?
Normally once you enter the dimensional Sphere, you would also come out where you come from.
It was one of the things they had discovered while bringing one people to another, but this time it was different.
His eyes looked up, as he got used to checking how many days they had left only for his eyes to widen in surprise.
When he entered that orb, he still had 73 days left, but now looking above, the time left was only a month.
He pressed both his lips with his teeth. He needed to go back to Eastern Empire, to check his family.
He went inside the hospital only for him to notice that the whole place was isolated, although it was expected because of the no enter outside but seeing the reason gave one goosebump.
Drew on the other hand was used with this. The whole place showed a lot of dark dry blood, scattered to the wall, ceiling, and floor. The sound of the shrieking of a 3-eyed rat reverberated in the whole place.
They said that the rats before only had 2 eyes, but he never saw a 2-eyed rat only 3 eyes, just like this one.
The 3-eyed rat was normally been found when there are fresh corpses or meat ...
Drew's thought of a weird thing and followed sneakily where the 3-eyed rat going to.
He was behind it until it stopped in front of the storage room. The sound of banging could be heard inside, and when he peeked at the glass his body turned cold.
Those beings...
He had seen them a lot of time in a history book that was taught to them. Those faces that had been rotten, dishevel faces, pale white dry skin, sunken pure white eyes, slow movements.
Aren't they supposed to be extinct?!
Those beings, they were called zombies!
Why were there still such as them?!
Drew heard a sound of footsteps behind him, making him hid and cover his body with ice so that his smell won't linger to the nose of those zombies if it was zombies.
When the guy came out, a pale handsome man showed up. He had silky black hair that was in a bun, his eyes were red in color, and he had a long black pointy nail. (A/N: If you are curious beans, I already introduce him in chapter 7 and 8)
Just like the other corpse, his lips were also pale, and eyes were also sunken, what made him different was that he still looked handsome with it, it was as if he was from an aristocrat family, and any smell of corpse couldn't be detected from him, it was as if he was a normal human being.
But he knew it was otherwise, that guy was the same as what people in past called. The Zombie King.
The face, and eyes were the same and what made it more obvious was that the zombie inside the storage room turned docile.
But that was not the point, that guy... He was very familiar with him. That zombie king was the son of the highest-ranking official that was declared dead before the game has begun, and the man with him, it was his elder cousin!
His cousin was supposed to be the next high priest in the Eastern empire, why was he here?!
Drew felt that this was no ordinary thing.
"Are you sure they are all fine?" Asked his cousin toward the Zombie King.
"Don't worry, they are all my players, at first their bodies will deteriorate but as time goes by, they would be able to control the king's shared power." Explained the Zombie king.
Drew's hand turned into a fist.
King's player, they are the people chosen by the King candidates. If a person was not yet a player, as long as they give their loyalty to the King candidates, they will automatically be turned to a player by their chosen King.
In being King's player, the power that the King receives on being a king could be shared with the players. For example was the Zombie King, under him could also receive the power of zombification. What made it great was that the original special ability once had will remain.
The disadvantage was that they were under the control of the said king, and if the King of theirs die, they would also die, except if the one who kills them was a king candidate also.
This King candidate could also take the player under his reign, giving the player chance to live but a great number of level would be taken away from the said player. The decreased number of levels was still unknown, but one person had tried it. Unfortunately, that person went back from level 35 to level 10, even the added points were taken away from that player.
Drew was once asked to be a king's player under the person his cousin knew. And the same person who asked him was the man talking with the zombie king at this moment.
Being with the Zombie King was the same as betraying the world, for the zombies were the sign of humans were rejected, that they were almost been erase from the world. They are the symbol of despair, the lackness of food, material, and everything, the sign of pain, and suffering.
And one of his family was actually joining hands with the same reminder for their suffering!
He was glad that he didn't accept it. Although one of the real reason why he didn't join was that he didn't want to be bound by anything, and he only wanted to be a player or king candidate, but at this moment he was glad he didn't agree and choose to try exploring the southern part of the country where the dimensional sphere was.
But joining those was also the same as punching the moon from earth, because not everyone who found those dimensional spheres could enter, and not everyone who was able to enter leave alive.
He was lucky that he was able to survive and have the Luck of 20, else he would surely die during those processes.
"By the way," the Zombie King then looked at the corner, making Drew's eyes shrank. "How long do you plan to hide there? Human," the zombie king continued with greedy eyes as if he found delicious prey.
