Chapter 68 - I Can Finally See Your True Face, Rei!
"Can humans do this?"
Following behind Mahiro, Rei looked at his heroic appearance and couldn't help but say,
"Don't be surprised!"
"This is just a small scene!"
Mahiro responded calmly.
Compared with the supernatural creatures he faced in DxD, these slow-moving zombies were no threat.
The current Mahiro was like a max-level character in a starting town.
He wouldn't be so diligent if it weren't for the quest.
"Small scene!?"
Rei faltered.
This was the world's end, and what scene could compare to now?
At least, in her worldview, there had never been a situation as dire as this one.
Therefore, Rei took Mahiro's words as a joke.
'Maybe he's comforting me!'
She thought.
"That room just now was the third-year classroom, right?"
Mahiro glanced at the classroom and asked.
He had just killed zombies on the first floor and completed the Main Quest 1: Zombie Hunter.
As for Main Quest 4, he only met Takashi and Rei.
This made Mahiro, who was confident in rescuing fifty people in the school, depressed.
Can he really find fifty survivors in Fujimi Academy?
Rei pondered for a moment and nodded.
"Yes, that's the third-year classroom."
"I didn't see Saeko Busujima, so it seems she escaped."
"Anyway, Given her strength, as long as she's careful, these zombies can't trap her."
Mahiro thought for a while and said.
He had just found a reason for his coming to Fujimi Academy.
Mahiro liked to avoid trouble and make things simple.
He had suddenly appeared in Fujimi Academy through the system's function.
For this school, he was a total stranger.
Finding a suitable reason would give him a perfect excuse for his current appearance in this school.
"You should be talking about Busujima-senpai, who won the championship in the National Kendo Competition last year?"
Holding the baseball bat, Rei couldn't help but feel a little nervous and asked.
"Do you know Saeko Busujima?"
"Of course, after all, I came to Fujimi Academy to find her."
Mahiro chuckled and said,
"But it may be wrong to say I know her. I know Saeko Busujima, and she doesn't know me."
"You came to Fujimi Academy to find her?"
Rei stared at Mahiro, and confusion appeared in her eyes.
"Are you a fan of Busujima-senpai, or...?"
Saeko Busujima was a well-known figure at Fujimi Academy. She was beautiful, gentle, and had excellent swordsmanship.
"Why do you ask?
Mahiro asked curiously.
Rei wasn't that stupid.
'Looking at Mahiro's appearance, he should be an admirer of Saeko Busujima.'
"Apart from getting to know her, I just came to see her for lessons."
Mahiro gently waved the Sword of Eternal Flames in his hand.
"But when I arrived, classes had already started, so I could only go to the roof and wait for the recess to find her."
"I didn't expect zombie outbreak to happen. It seems this trip was pointless."
"I have watched Busujima-senpai's matches. She shouldn't be a match for you."
Rei met Mahiro's eyes.
"Let's not talk about it."
"We should first go to the next floor and look."
Mahiro interrupted Rei as he walked.
"Help!"
Suddenly, someone screamed.
Hearing the sound, Mahiro was overjoyed.
He had thought that he would not be able to find any survivors.
On the stairs leading to the next floor, a group of six students were surrounded by zombies.
"Follow me!"
Hearing this, Rei obediently walked to Mahiro's side.
"Oh, There are survivors."
She looked over and saw six students surrounded by Zombies.
Rei was convinced that if the group of six were by their side. Mahiro would be able to save them. However, this was not the case now.
The entire stairs leading to the next floor were destroyed, making them unable to move forward.
"What a pity!"
Rei felt fortunate in her heart.
Compared to the group of six, she was fortunate to have encountered someone as strong as Mahiro.
With Mahiro by her side, she didn't face any hardships.
"Huh?!"
Rei still felt terrible for the group of six when she suddenly felt a touch around her waist and exclaimed.
She found that Mahiro's left hand was wrapping around her waist.
"Don't panic."
Before Rei could react, she felt Mahiro's arms tightened around her waist.
The next moment, Rei understood what Mahiro meant by 'Don't panic.'
Mahiro grabbed her waist and jumped down.
"!!!"
The sudden sensation of weightlessness made Rei feel dizzy.
She was so terrified that she couldn't even scream.
Her face turned pale, and she abruptly closed her eyes. However, the next moment, the feeling of weightlessness disappeared.
"You can open your eyes."
Mahiro let go of Rei.
Although, she appeared quite panicked.
Rei calmed herself down and followed Mahiro.
'Can humans do this?'
On the upper floor, Takashi felt that he was watching a superhero movie.
Although, he had planned to escape behind the two of them.
However, Mahiro's series of actions were too incredible.
"I can finally see your true face, Rei!"
Takashi looked at the close contact between Mahiro and Rei and couldn't help but feel sorry for Hisashi and himself.
Afterward, Takashi discovered a very serious problem.
He had followed them and walked over safely along the way.
However, it seemed that the two had abandoned him.
He was now alone.
"Whatever, I can kill zombies myself."
Takashi gritted his teeth and started looking for another route.
