Chapter 10

Han Lou woke up beside a fire and sat up in haste. He looked around and noticed that he was back in Miss Kim’s shelter. How did he get here? Did she carry him back?

“You’re awake,”

Han turned around and saw Miss Kim coming in with a bowl of water in her hand. She knelt beside him and put the bowl on the ground. There was a cloth inside and she soaked it before looking back at him.

“Turn around. I’m going to wash you”

Han’s eyes widened. What did this woman just say!? He didn’t need anyone to wash him. He wasn’t lame!

Han then suddenly remembered his hand. He looked down and saw that it was in some sort of splinted bandage. The arm was still swollen and when he tried to move it a horrible pain shot through him. Han wasn’t a doctor, but he could easily tell that he wouldn’t be able to use the arm properly for at least a week. This was going to be difficult for him. He needed to go out there to get stronger. How can he fight when he cannot even move his arm!?

“Let me help you. You already did so much for me when I am only able to run away. At least let me help you this once”

Han swallowed thickly. This woman was still Miss Kim and he still hated her, but no matter how he looked at it she was still hot. Was this going to be safe?

Han turned around and allowed Miss Kim to take off his shirt. He then felt her trace a line along his back ad he shivered.

“What are you doing?”

“S-Sorry!”

Miss Kim had gotten distracted by his muscles. He might not look it, but he was toned under his shirt... Those clothes were hiding very nice muscles underneath. Miss Kim began to wash his back, and as she did, she also began telling him what happened before he woke up.

She found him after coming out from hiding inside the base. She managed to carry him using one of Tao Long’s cars and brought him back to the school. That was yesterday. She also told him that she found the radio in the base, but it was already destroyed. She suspected that carnivores did it to prevent anyone from getting out from the city.

He was also very interested in the new skill he had. This one was not like the other ones, it was an active skill instead of a passive one. Han understood that this means he had to activate it himself before he could use it. The system would not be in charge of it anymore.

This meant he could level it up as quickly as possible without having to wait to use it. Han immediately turned on the skill and Miss Kim stiffened beside him. She turned towards him with wide eyes. What was this sensation she was feeling? Did this man want to attack her now? Did she do something wrong?

Han noticed her change and quickly deactivated the skill. So the skill didn’t have a target and just attacked anybody around him. He would have to be careful while using this skill.

The two scavengers continued their walk in silence for a long time. Han wanted to ask Miss Kim where they were going but she kept on telling him that it was somewhere she was sure he would recognize. Han didn’t know why, but he had the feeling that she was trying to be cheeky! Did this woman want to play a prank on him!?

He kept on killing zombies as this thought stayed in his head. The zombies were now like a small disturbance to Han. He didn’t even get any more notifications whenever he killed one. They were now ants that didn’t even measure up to him!

“We’re here,”

Miss Kim said this after a long time of walking and they stopped in front of a tall building. Han was in shock. He didn’t think she would have the nerve to come back to this place, but he must have misjudged her.

They were in front of the H&C advertisement building
