1 Who Do You Think Will Clean That Up

All of a sudden, the flames swallowing the city started to compress within themselves and then in a flash, they expanded and exploded like a nuclear missile had landed.

It wasn't when a long while had vanished with a puff, leaving just a large amount of smoke billowing into the atmosphere.

The three workers that were previously discussing had been pushed backwards by the shockwaves. Luckily for them, they seem to be alive even after thee explosion and the rain of glass an fire.

The three of them suddenly woke up after what seemed to be forever, three gasping sounds rang out as the three unconscious people came to.

Ryver felt his throat was dry and extremely parched. He gasped for air drawing more oxygen into his lungs, it was the dizziness faded.

Gazing cautiously at his surroundings with his left hand reaching for the makeshift metal by his boot.

But he couldn't sense enemies around him. Noticing he couldn't breathe properly, he controlled his breathe and felt that he needed more force to draw in more oxygen supply into his body.

Ryver stood up with confusion in his eyes, the entire day had been fill of surprises, but he didn't forget his purpose.

Staggering out of the office, he looked purposefully to the left of the hallway.

He muttered.

"Status."

[Host is inhaling 1.7 units of radiation per second. If this continues, the cells within the body will mutate uncontrollably and within 5 hours, the host will be dead!]

Ryver's face changed greatly. He would die within 5 hours due to radiation?

Didn't the system say he couldn't absorb radiation due to the altercation of his genetic structure!?

His face was gloomy as he thought. 'At this rate, I would be dead before I have a chance at vengeance.'

"RAAAAUUUUGHHHH!"

A soft and weird moaning sound echoed from within the hallway. Ryver raised his head and his eyes refocused, attracted by the sound.

"W-wait! W-wh-what are you doing!? Ahhhhh!"

A horrified scream pierced sharply through the hallway, startling everyone within. The three office workers that had gotten on their feet had a panicked expression as one of them, a middle-aged, dark-haired woman had lunged at the other short woman, roughly biting through the neck and flesh of the other woman like a rabid dog.

"Tony! Get her off me!!!" The other lady howled in agony. The other worker; the man had a confused expression on his face, but he quickly grabbed the rabid woman by the waist, heaving her off the middle-aged lady.

"Rachel! Stop it! Have you gone mad!?" The man yelled and furiously reprimanded but in just a few seconds, the rabid woman actually managed to turn, grabbed ruthlessly at the man's head and bit down on his neck maniacally.

"Rachel l!? What the hell!?" The man yelled in pain an anger.

Blood splashed on the crazy woman's face and the air like tap, falling to the ground as it the man's main artery by the neck had been bitten.

"S-stop! Rachel! Please stop!!!"

The man scream was ignored as he was unceremoniously pushed to the ground. The crazy woman continued biting through his flesh like a savage beast.

Grabbing painfully rather neck, the other middle-aged aged lady was petrified, extremely frightened.

She stared at the bloody scene before her with widened eyes stepping back in alarm, but it seems her body was unable to move as she trembled like a leaf in fear.

Life drained from the man's eyes and his struggle began to diminish and then ultimately stopped. The rabid woman seems to have lost interest in the man when his struggle as well as his flesh were all gone.

Her head snapped backwards as she gazed at the other woman who was still frozen in shock. Pieces of red meat and bloodied tissue hung off the corner of her lips, and her mouth and throat had bulged as though she had swallowed a pumpkin in the process of swallowing the meal she had just had.

Without warning, she leapt towards the other lady through the howling wind almost like a frog, tackling her to the ground, ignoring the glass shards digging through her flesh and bones.

"Sluuurp! Sluuurp-"

The suckling sound suddenly stopped and the deranged woman raised her head high, her dark soulless eyes locked on lto Ryver who was standing a few meters away.

Ryver finally got an entire view of the lady and his brows rose. The middle-aged woman's eyes were completely white, the pupil and iris were nowhere to be found.

"Am undead?" Although he rarely read books, with how popular the genre was on the Web, he was familiar with their features. The maddening craving for blood, white creamy eyes, unaffected, even to fatal injuries; the injuries on its face caused by the man's struggle.

Ryver wasn't given more time to think. The middle-aged zombie stood on its feet and began running towards Ryver with intense vigour. Although its speed wasn't too fast, it wasn't slow either but Ryver made no signs to move, his thought seem to have wandered.

In a few seconds, it had arrived before Ryver, leaping to the as it jumped at him and just when they were a few inches away from each other, Ryver finally made his move, sidestepping in the nick of time.

The zombie flailed aimlessly as it passed by, landing on the ground. But before it could move, Ryver withdrew a sharp steel rod from his boot and stabbed right at the back of the Undead's head.

An unintelligible sound came out of its mouth, its body twitching slightly before every of its motion seized.

Ryver withdrew his small sharp rod from the back of its neck and cleaned up the body using the suit from the corpse.

At this moment, he tilted his head sideways as though he heard something. His brows knitted as he noticed from the corners of his eyes.

The two dead office workers the middle-aged zombie had bitten to death clumsily stood up on their feet.

The man - Tony had a portion of his innards dangling before him, a half bitten kidney hung below his belt, blood and greenish-yellow innard fluid dripping all over the ground as they began walking towards him.

Ryver's expression darkened seeing this "Who do you think will clean that up for you?"
