Chapter 36: Dead
Chapter 36: Dead
On the second day of the monthly test, Sol brings his family to the colosseum, he was worried that Nerva had gotten sick, her face keep blushing since morning.
When he arrived at the colosseum everyone was looking at him like some super idol, he had become even more famous ever since his last fight.
People have the illusion that he is stronger than Brutus the Heir of Mars, yet it wasn't true, if Sol fight the heir again then he will surely lose ten out of ten times.
Sol sitting with Nerva on his lap, she had been fidgeting ever since, he pats her head and cat ear to calm her down.
"Hiyaa... it is so embarrassing... my heart beat so fast, what if daddy hear me? Will he think I'm weird?" Nerva still struggling with her morality, a father and daughter relationship is a big taboo.
Nerva had realized that she still can see the souls, in her eye, they look like flying person that body colored in greyscale.
Strangely the number of the soul in the city is considerably less than when she was hiding in her necklace months ago.
Teams from Temple of Minerva had lost in their first fight, so they were just watching how the other group fares.
It's almost noon when suddenly the sky went dark around the city, normally this won't happen, in the day sky was always bright because of Jupiter make it so.
Everyone stop what they were doing and looked at the sky, white fog started to rise and the temperature drop even more.
"Daddy we need to go to Mommy's temple" Nerva pulled at Sol's shirt.
"Wha..." Sol about to asked Nerva, but suddenly a lot of creatures crawl out from under the snow and roaring could be heard all around the city.
The audience starts screaming, they tried to run out of the colosseum but the pushing and pulling made some people trampled to death.
Sol pulled at his knife and handed Nerva to Moon, out of the three adults, Moon was the strongest, Sol didn't know what power she had but she can surely keep Nerva safe.
They didn't join the crowd, there were too many people to run out safely, and from the sound of it, even outside there were also a lot of creatures.
Because of the fog, visibility is quite low, Sol could see three pairs of glowing blue eyes come toward him.
When they come close he could see that it was two ratman but one of them was tall like a human, Sol quickly stabbed one ratman in the heart and leave the other two for Miya and Moon.
Both were sent flying back by them, but to Sol's surprise, the rat-man he stabbed, grabbed his arm like a vice, and bite him hard, luckily he wore his Snake scale armor.
He let go of his knife and kick the offending rat back with a kick on its chest, he summoned his knife back and ready himself for another clash.
To his surprise, both Moon and Miya also still struggle with their enemy who won't stay down.
"Fuck what with this ratman, is it immortal?" Sol tried to analyze the situation.
The next time it comes to him, he smoothly beheaded it, sending its head flying to the ground. He about to help Miya when sounds can be heard from the head.
He got close to found the rat head trying to bite his nose, Sol moved back and kick the head away.
"Moon, Miya, smash the head they are Zombies" Sol shout at them.
Moon grabbed the tall zombie head and clench her palm, shattering it into bits of gore, the body falls down and stop moving.
Miya also dispatches her opponent with her claw, opening a big hole on its head.
The sound of fighting can be heard from around them but because of the fog, they couldn't see what was happening.
Sol about to ask them if they are alright but glowing blue eyes can be seen coming toward them.
This time a dozen pairs of them, they can also feel the snow moving like something trying to burrow out of it.
"We need to get out of here!" Sol shouts to anyone who can hear him.
"Daddy to the temple!!!" Nerva's small and frighten voice can be heard all around the colosseum.
The sound of fighting around him was getting stronger and blue light can be seen in the fog, flashing from time to time, it was Heir's ability.
Anyone who heard Nerva's voice was trying their best to get out of the colosseum and move toward the Temples.
The temple was kilometers away from the colosseum that was built in the city center, to get out of the city they need to fight an uncountable number of zombies.
It seems impossibly hard but it was better than stay there and fight them to no end, even for the strongest Heir of Jupiter, fighting dozens of zombies in this fog was hard.
The fog limits their vision badly and the zombies were just too much, they won't die unless you smash their brain.
Sol and his company move toward the exit hand in hand, they don't want to be separated in this fog.
They can feel dead bodies under them, its still bloody, most likely the were alive not long ago.
They were very afraid, behind them was an uncountable number of zombies and who knows when these bodies they are stepping on will be turned into a zombie too.
Sol looks around to find and another survivor but all he can see was glowing blue eyes coming toward him.
