Looking around I tried to find a way into the building without letting the thralls inside. Soon I found an open window on the second floor. Now with an objective in mind I ran towards the window as fast as I could.
*Growl*
*Grawl*
Of course I attracted a few thralls who started running after me but I didn't have time to deal with them. Not yet atleast. Reaching under the window, I jumped with all of my might. And surprisingly I reached the entire way to the window, grabbed onto it's frame and pulled myself into the building. The thralls were below me growling at me while trying to get into the building the same way I did. I only threw them a mocking glance before I closed the window behind me. Using the blue aura as a guide I found the small group of humans pretty easily. The group consisted of ten people, 6 girls and 4 guys, and they all looked really scared but I could relate.
"Hi." I called out to them. I don't know why I did it. Maybe it was because I crave human contact again or maybe I didn't want to watch them from afar like a creep. Well it doesn't matter now anyway. I walked towards the group with a friendly smile, trying to look as harmless as possible but apparently it's hard to be something your not. The group got scared and backed away which was understandable. A large muscular guy in the group walked over to me with a steel pipe and took a stance.
"Get away from us you monster." I remember him shouting something stupid like that.
"Look I..." I said while taking a step forward and that triggered the muscular guy as he lunged at me with the steel pipe in hand. He swung at my head but I simply ducked and gave him an uppercut to the face sending him flying. This caused the group to get even more scared as they huddled up even closer to each other, one of the girls named Claire stepped infront of the group.
"Please don't kill them." She pleaded her voice shaking with fear. This caused me to sigh as I simply sat on the ground and raised my hand making myself look even more non threatening. Claire was a beautiful girl with long blonde hair, fair skin and blue eyes.
"Look I'm not one of those zombies walking outside ok." I said
"So how did you get inside." Claire asked suspiciously
"I used a back entrance." I lied. The others visibly calmed down with the exception of Claire who seemed to still be suspicious.
"My name is Colin by the way." I said
"Claire and these guys are..." She then went on to introduce all the members of the group but I've forgotten most of their names by now only remembering a few. I also learned that the muscular guy's name was Tim.
"So how long have you guys been in here." I asked
"Two days." Claire replied being the only one who had the guts to talk to me. Although the rest knew I wasn't a monster they still didn't trust me fully due to what happened with Tim but I really didn't care.
'Two days huh.' That made me realize that I've been out for atleast a day after the 'Zombiefication' of K town.
"Do you guys know what's going on with the rest of the school?" I asked wanting to know the status of the school. I knew that the upper floor didn't have anyone inside them but I wasn't sure about the base floors as the aura from the undead thralls outside were interfering with [Aura Vision].
"The upper floors are safe but the ground floor isn't. There are a bunch of zombies walking around down there but thankfully they haven't broken the glass doors or showed any interest in coming upstairs as we would all be fucked." Claire said
"Okay then." I said as I got up to leave.
"Where are you going?" Claire asked with a frown on her face.
"Downstairs." I said not stopping.
"Downstairs are you insane?" Claire said as she followed after me but when she saw me start to walk down the stairs sh stopped. This time though I didn't answer her question and just walked down the stairs. There were a few reasons why I wanted to kill the thralls on the first floor, firstly I didn't want them to evolve, secondly I needed a lot of exp to evolve and they were currently my only source and thirdly, I want to see how strong I've become after becoming a halfling.
