Nathan, Aena and Zita were on the first floor of the house and arranging things.
At the moment, they were busy covering all of the windows with curtains, blankets, towels and whatever pieces of clothing there were available.
Earlier, when Nathan opened the gate for Aena and Zita to come in, Nathan immediately checked the entire house, not only the first and second floors but also inside and outside.
"I'm done," said Aena.
"Me too," said Zita.
Nathan just finished covering a window and look at the two and the work they did.
'I think it's okay...?' he thought. "Okay, turn on the emergency lamps. I'm going outside to check if the lights can be seen from inside."
"Okay," they both said and switched two emergency lights on.
Nathan went to the front door. It was blocked by a large vase with a plate and glasses on top of it. He moved it to the side and then opened the door.
Earlier, the front and back doors were locked and he didn't have the keys so he decided to destroy the doorknob of the front door.
Outside, Nathan circled around the house to see if the lights were visible on the first floor.
After seeing that no light was visible from the windows and whatnot, he decided to head back inside.
Once he was inside, he began absorbing all of the furniture in the living room into his [Artifact] Gold Spatial Finger.
Aena and Zita were standing in a corner and observing him.
After Nathan was done absorbing all of the furniture in the living room, he climbed over to the second floor, entered the largest room, and left all of it there before heading back.
'This space is more than enough...' he thought as he swept his gaze on the living room which was quite spacious.
"Zita, can you move that emergency light a bit further to the side?" Nathan said as he pointed at one of the emergency lights.
"Okay," Zita said and moved the item to the side with her skill [Lift].
Nathan summoned the RV that he "received" from Earnest.
Seeing the vehicle, Zita's eyes widened and she suddenly had this urge to vomit but she stopped herself.
Aena, on the other hand, given that she already saw Nathan summon the RV and had her transfer all of the contents of the boxes of food and drinks into the RV, she wasn't surprised.
Nathan opened the door to the RV and the MREs and bottles of water came pouring out.
'Fuck me sideways...' he thought as he began absorbing the MREs and bottles of water.
A few minutes later…
Nathan was done absorbing almost all of the MREs and bottles of water and was facing a problem with the RV.
'Fuck me sideways…'
'Where the fuck is the button...?'
'Do I need a key or something...?'
'I seriously don't know how this works…'
He was holding a flashlight and trying to figure out how to turn on the electricity of the RV.
He tried looking for the switch on the driver's seat and was pressing and turning any button he could find.
Click.
Click.
Beep.
Press.
'Dammit...'
'I should've asked them before killing them...'
Suddenly, an idea popped inside his head.
'Oh wait, there must be a manual here...'
'Wait a minute...!'
'Tha'ts right...!'
'Caucasians love their manuals…'
He began searching for the manual.
To be fair, Nathan has no idea how to drive cars and this was his first time dealing with RVs.
"Do you need help?" Aena said by the window.
Nathan didn't look at her and continued searching.
"It's okay, I'm good."
"Back when I was studying high school in Womania, I used to date this guy whose parents were quite obsessed with RV camping," said Aena. "One time, I was invited to one of their family RV camping and I learned a few things."
Nathan stopped and scratched his nose.
"Fine. Teach me."
"Usually, there are two control panels," she said as entered the RV through the door located in the middle of the right side of the RV.
And when she entered, she went near the refrigerator and began jamming her fingers on a wall.
Beep.
Beep.
The lights inside the RV turned on.
"It looks like the solar battery wasn't completely charged. It says here it's only 62%," said Aena.
"Okay, thanks. I'm going to finish cleaning now," said Nathan.
"Do you want me to help?"
"No, I prefer to clean alone."
"Okay," she said and got off the RV.
Nathan was currently sitting down inside the RV while arranging and sorting out the items.
Unfortunately, he was too tall to stand inside that he needed to really bend either his knees or neck, or both, making it very uncomfortable.
'Don't need this…'
He absorbed it.
'Don't need this…'
He absorbed it.
'I need this…'
'Don't need this…'
He absorbed it.
'I need this...'
'Don't need this…'
He absorbed it.
'I need this as well…'
He opened the refrigerator and swept his gaze on the contents.
'Gotta throw away the ones that are already opened...'
'Who knows what kind of diseases that Booty Warrior and his family have…'
'Don't need this…'
He absorbed it.
'Don't need this…'
He absorbed it.
'Beer?'
There were 5 beer cans.
'It's been a while since I've had liquor…'
'Two months…?'
'Or was it three…?'
"The two of you, are you sure you don't want to eat anything?" he said.
"I'm still full. I ate a lot while I was waiting for you," said Zita.
"I have no appetite," said Aena.
Nathan stared at the beer.
'Hmm…'
'Maybe later...'
'But first…'
He summoned a few drinks and placed them inside.
'Finally, cold drinks…'
'I miss drinking cold drinks…'
He closed the fridge and then proceeded to check the bathroom.
Ka-cha!
'There's no chance in hell I'm going to risk using the cleaning items that that Booty Warrior and his family used…
He absorbed all of the cleaning materials -- toilet brush, toilet bowl cleaner, brush, rubber gloves, etc. Even the soap, shampoo, toothpaste, toothbrush, dental floss and face towel, he absorbed them too.
Although he didn't have any cleaning materials with him, he was able to replace the soap, shampoo, toothpaste, toothbrush, dental floss and face towel at the very least.
'Oh, I almost forgot...!'
He summoned a conditioner.
Satisfied, he went to the bedroom.
Without any second thoughts, he absorbed the pillows, pillowcases and bedsheets.
He also absorbed the clothes and all of the pictures of Earnest and his family. Even their accessories, comb, towels, shoes, sandals and slippers were absorbed.
He really didn't want to risk anything.
He continued searching for what items to throw away and keep until he finally found something interesting.
It was a Portable Player Console 2 or PPC2.
'Hmm… I think Zita will like this…'
'How do you turn this on…?'
'And does it have games…?'
He searched for the on/off button.
Click!
The PPC2 booted up and the screen featured the main menu.
'Oh, there's a bunch of games…'
'Wait...!'
'Is it right to give this to Zita…?'
'I mean, she's a girl...'
'Oh, who cares, with the zombie apocalypse and all, the number of available things that humanity can do to kill them and enjoy has been severely reduced…'
'I just hope she'll be careful enough to control strength because she might break it…'
'And oh, I also need to find the charger and headphones for this PPC2…'
'No, I think I'm going to pass with the headphones…'
'It's disgusting to use used headphones of strangers…'
'And come to think of it, is there a Player Console 4 and a Player Console Virtual Reality in this house...?'
'I also hope there's a tablet and laptop but no password please…'
He remembered the time when he was recuperating after being slapped by the D1 back in his apartment complex in Womania. Although he managed to find a number of laptops within the apartment building, most of them had passwords.
As for the smartphone and tablets, all of them had passwords.
There were also PCs and video game consoles but were all useless because there was no electricity.
