RE:BORN Zombie

“Take over this thing, Larry.” Victor said to Larry as he emerged from the smoke mist. After he noted that Larry had gone towards the control seat and had started going through whatever the screens before him was, he turned his attention to the lady that Larry threw behind the seat to make way. Seeing her again, Victor couldn’t help but think about his skill Undead Aura. On one hand it was a powerful skill when used correctly, but for the most part he could see how it would become a nuisance in future. What if he only wanted to make someone a little scared as threat, he would end up killing them without achieving the desired effect. The stronger it got, the wider the range of people and creatures that he would be able to intimidate easily, meaning massive meaningless death. Not that he particularly cared about the deaths, but then again there would be no sense to it, making it stupid and uncalled for, not really his style.

‘I have to somehow find a way to go around this and do something about it.’ Victor thought in his mind. Most of the creatures he had met up until now simply didn’t show any fear, or when they did it wasn’t fear of death or one that triggered the skill, as apparently it had its specific triggers. When it came to humans however that so much loved their lives, like most intelligent creatures, Victor could already see how this particular skill would affect his plans. ‘If I can’t come up with anything, I just would have to settle for being a literal shinigami that can’t control his power.’ Victor said nonchalantly in his mind.

“Whatever, let’s deal with the matter at hand first.”_.

From Larry’s report, the closest city to their current location wasn’t his residing city, so he didn’t have much of any information about important things, but since it is also one of the neighbouring cities to the one he used to live in, he at least has the basic knowledge.

“So firstly, the power cores wouldn’t be able to last cover the trip, and I’ll have to fly the remaining way there if I want to get to your city, and this is not your city, so you are not familiar with it.. Fine.” Victor said, as an idea formed in his head.

He asked Larry to land the craft first, or as Larry refers to it, an airship. Larry started talking some complex and useless things about shuttles and warships, or something like that, but such information was not needed at the moment, so Victor just resolved to call all such aircrafts Airships. For now, they would find a way to move the airship deeper the way they came from in order to hide it. From what Larry said, there was just no way the patrol units would reach that deep to look for the culprits, as not culprit would even be crazy enough to push deeper. Heck, even now there was no patrol unit on duty so far out.

“Rather than go back, wouldn’t it just be better if we just abandoned the ship here and headed straight for your city? No need to leave a trail.” Victor said, and in the end they resulted to that. It might have not been much, but this small thinking session that shouldn’t have taken as long as it should gave Victor a thought, one he definitely considered greatly. Perhaps, just having monsters that were strong and could follow some instructions wasn’t enough, intelligent one would be more effective.

“Alright, let’s move towards your city for now Victor said before abandoning the airship and moving towards a separate direction from the one they were going to go. With the map they collected from the craft, finding their way around wouldn’t be too hard. All they needed to do was study it before throwing the device away because these devices are always being tracked and can be used to get them later. Really, what the government from Victor’s original earth wouldn’t give to have such technology.

They continued towards the city which Larry used to live in, and for the journey Victor used his human form with wings on his back sometimes, and if he noticed the presence of any aircrafts, he would get down and try to hide or just go by foot if the terrain was favourable. He did this throughout the early hours until the sun was properly up and he started spotting more and more aircrafts in the air. Apparently, most of the land was not filled with covering, so Victor running on it would be quite noticeable by these advanced technologies, he thought. With that the only way was to move further into the side where the abandoned side was and then he could feel a bit safe. Honestly, he could fight off on aircraft, but that would mean putting a target on his back by a whole race of humans. Not the brightest choice.

Due to the need to hide from time to time and sometimes fly due to the terrain of forest or similar, Victor had to frequently pause from time to time or use his wings. Flying as he was now was not as fast as his running speed, so Victor on air could only move at somewhere a little bit above 50% of his running speed. It was only after the evening was setting in did they manage to reach their destination, the city where Larry used to live.

Of course, just like a post apocalyptic city would look, there were high solid walls surrounding the entire city. From what Larry said, not all settlements had this kind of walls, the only reason why this one had such a defensive wall was because it was located at the farthest edge of the remaining unaffected land, and was more prone to monster attack if there was to be any dungeon break or movement of nearby monster settlement. Despite this, the city was relatively easy to access, and Victor found it easy to enter counter to what he thought. He did get a few stares and glares because of his look of fiery tattoos all over his visible body, and the scattered hair only added to the savagery look.

The first thing Victor did was to find a quite place where it seemed like people didn’t frequent and summon Larry, from there, both of them walked the streets and roads, as Larry took them to his apartment where he lived. As quite the high level hunter himself, he had the funds to support some level of luxury, so his house was no doubt beautiful and comfortable. It wasn’t a mansion, but it was big and good enough for a bachelor.

“Not bad.” Victor commented, making Larry to bow a little.

On the way they did get a few suspicious looks, but nothing alarming, so they didn’t worry about it. Surely, a guy walking around with lit up tattoos would be quite eye catching, and avoiding attention would be almost impossible. Victor couldn’t help but commend the way the city looked, as he had only seen such things in only movies of science fiction. There weren’t flying cars or something like that, but the feel it gave was something he would relate to a cyber punk kind of environment, even though it didn’t have much of the features yet, ‘it’s surely getting there.’ He said in his mind. To think a world where magic exists would be heading in the direction of science more, at this point he would think that the things around would function using some form of mana manipulation or something like that.

From then both men spent a few days indoors just lazing around. There was no need for them to rush anything, not like they had some kind of agenda at the moment. For now, Victor would like nothing more than to understand the world which he was now in, and learn as much as he could about it. Luckily for him, the brain of his which always forgot the answer to questions during exams and tests back on his original earth seemed to have been improved, and he could retain and hold more information. Again, he could only thank god for his intelligence. Seeing as the system was trying to turn him to some kind of scholar, it was good that he could use it like this.

During this time of being at home and doing nothing, Victor also took that time to look through the things Ramok had, his treasury. It was normal for the drake from another world to hold many things that were arcane and mysterious to Victor. Heck, he hadn’t still understood this current world he was in, talk less of another world that was seemingly more advance than the current one, in a way. If this one had advance science, then the other had advance magic. Of course, there was one thing the system recognised regardless of the world or dimension in which it came from, and that was money. Needless to say, Victor had just gained a fortune enough to max out all his skills and still remain plenty for his generation to come.
