The far eastern side of Albania.
The Shin city. It was also just beside the eastern part of the famine area.
Though it wasn't colder than the famine area itself, however, last year they needed to wear warm cloth always.
"When will this winter will end?"
One of the security guards at the city gate said.
"Winter? You know it's still summers going on."
His partner said.
"Does it matter which season it is? Just because it is cold, it's the winter season for me."
The security guard A said.
"Haha. Well, whatever. It becoming less cold than before. So, you don't have to worry about it much."
Security guard B said.
"My all worries about the crops. It is really getting hard to grow crops in this condition. We are not like a commercial city like Rona. We need to grow crops for income."
Security guard A said.
"Aye, my city mayor. You don't need to worry. Everything will be alright your loyal subject telling to ya."
Security guard B said while hugging A's shoulder.
"You and your sarcasm."
The security guard A said with a smile.
"Hey, what's this?"
The security guard B said while stretching his shoulder to look clearly.
"What, what are you talking about now?"
Security guard A got nervous after sensing his way of speech change.
"Look, look na? There... Doesn't it feel like someone is running toward here like a mad horse?"
Security guard B said. Hearing that, security guard A tried to see carefully.
"You are right, who is that? He looks like has no restraint."
He hurriedly went in front of the entrance and was prepared to scream as soon as the mad runner will get in range.
When that mad runner was in 100m range A shouted,
"Hey, you. I am telling you to slow down."
However, the running man was still running toward them. Because it is evening and the sun was down a few minutes ago it's already black and there was no moon in the sky. So, it is hard for the guards to find out his face.
"Just who is this b@$T@rd! We will get in trouble sure today. Not to mention people from Kingdom rarely came from this side rarely, after the other side is called Hell of Snow desert."
It was the security guard B.
"Tsk! For sure."
When the man got in the 50m close, they were ready to tackle him, because he was not showing his identity or talking with them. So, it wasn't out of the rules to defend their city.
However, when that mad man came in 10m distance, both of them got flabbergasted. After all, the face was that man wasn't normal, and neither his hands, nor legs were.
"Stop! Stop you fukin...!"
Security guard A thrust his sword towards the mad man. However, the mad man didn't stop, and let him be pierced by the sword.
"What the! Did he come here to commit suicide?"
Security guard B said.
Security guard A.
"Shit, is this guy okay? Did I kill him?"
"We did nothing wrong. This guy was the one who was wrong."
Security guard B said while reassuring Security guy B.
*Grrrrrrr*
The mad man groaned. They thought he was groaning out of pain. However, the mad man suddenly stretches his neck and bites security guard A's hand.
"Gah! What the hey why are... Gah, it hurts!"
The security guard tried to get rid of the mad man's teeth. Even though he thinks that he is stronger than the mad man, the mad man was persistent in his bite. When security guard B saw he wasn't able to get out, he took his unsheath sword scabbard and wrapped it around his throat.
After two men's strength, they could finally get out of his teeth from security guard A's hand.
Those two pinned down him on the ground. The mad man tried to bite them again. However, they gagged him with a dirty cloth that they have in their room.
"What a sick mofo!!"
Saying that Security guard B wiped his sweat.
"You are bleeding, you know? You should go to medical to heal yourself."
Security guard B said while looking into the hand of security guard A.
"You are right, I should go there."
Saying that he started to wrap his hand with the cloth to stop blood to fall more.
"Yeah, you go, meanwhile I will take care of it while reporting to the seniors."
Security Guard B was assessing the body of the mad man. Suddenly he noticed his eyes. Because it was dark and they were too busy defending themself from this guy, they didn't noticed that.
The skin of the mad man is neither like an old man nor like a normal human. It's kinda greenish. His mouth was bloody. Above all, this guy looked like something from a horror story.
"Where the heck did this guy come from? He looks like he can't see with eyes."
He heard a *kot kot kat kat kit* noise behind. It was as if the bone was breaking.
"Hey, you should go to see medics as soon as possible."
He turned behind as soon as he said. What he saw was the security guard A, true. However, he has the same eyes without pupils as this mad man and has greening skin.
He was bitten by security guard A before he could have reacted.
