Chapter 35 - 32 My weapon is my life!

I see the two monsters interact for a few seconds and then I also stroke Scythe's head and the leaves of the Venus to reinforce our bond that unites us. Then I look at the first one and tell her trying to transmit my orders through the link of the [Tame] ability, so she can understands it better.

"Scythe, I need you to bring a live a zombie to this place."

She watches me for a few seconds and when seemed to understand what I was asking, runs to the streets of the city. Because the people in the Takagi house have taken care of the closest zombies in the area, this may take a few minutes.

I also hope she doesn't get lost… well, surely she can somehow manage to do it, and by my ability can know the address where Scythe is, so probably has that same feeling.

"Is it okay for Scythe-chan to leave like this?"

Saeko speaks somewhat worried, she undoubtedly got a little fond of my ghoul in this short time, to avoid her discomfort grow I tell her about the connection we have between the two of us, she nods after listening to me and relaxes a little.

"For what do you want the zombie, Alex?"

"It will become a good fertilizer for my plant"

I say smiling when looking at Venus, she gets a little confused with my words, but since I can't explain it better, ask her to wait for Scythe to come back to see it.

After several minutes, we can see Scythe come jogging quickly while arresting something with one hand. When she got to where we were, clearly see the zombie that she was holding of one foot, preventing him from getting up, and as I asked she, was alive ... was moving, it is confusing to talk about the state of a zombie.

" Well Scythe , now throw it near the Venus"

Finishing my words do what I asked and throw the zombie a few centimeters from the floor, this being able to put both feet on the ground finds balance and rises slowly, perhaps not recognizing the plant as an enemy turns to where We are, but before could take a step I order the Luciferian Venus.

"That's your food, eat it"

At the end of the sound of my voice that echoes, the stems of the plant twist a little, the vines move and become entangled in the zombie's feet, then after finding its target, one of the parts that looks like a mouth opens showing sharp spikes that cover it as if it were an eye with inverted eyelashes.

It moves like a carnivore behind its prey and bites the zombie, lifts it and opens and closes its leaves accommodating the zombie so that it enters completely. Upon completion of introducing it all returns to an inactive state, but now you see the shape of the trapped zombie that is between the leaves of one of its mouths, also a kind of white smoke and green sap emanates from it.

When the sap touches the asphalt, it generates smoke and the place where it falls is eaten away ... that must be the acid ability that I read in its status, it looks like something very dangerous.

"Alex! The plant ate the zombie!"

"Without a doubt that is something impressive"

"It's great, but don't get close, Scythe returns. Its sap when eats becomes acidic and looks very dangerous."

Kurisu and Saeko talk when see the Venus in action, it is certainly something surprising to observe, besides Scythe curious about the things that her new friend does, wants to approach and probably caress the plant again, so I stop her to prevent from get hurt by accident.

"Well, Scythe now I need you to constantly feed the Venus, she will be your new sister so take care of her properly"

"Si-st-er"

"Leaving aside her blood tie, you forgot that they are different races ... worse yet, one is a vegetable being and the other... you're right, maybe it doesn't matter"

Kurisu gets a little picky, but in the end not knowing how to classify Scythe accepts my words. We see Scythe run again to the streets of the city, in minutes it returns with another zombie and the previous process is repeated.

What surprises me a bit is that when the other mouth engulfs the zombie, the one that had already eaten almost finished digesting its prey, the bulge caused by the body decreased considerably, at this rate in a couple of minutes it will reopen those jaws.

Now I am a little worried that Scythe can keep up the pace to feed it ... I should be grateful that she is a ghoul who does not need to rest or sleep, no doubt the two monsters will be a good team.

After Scythe resumes her quest for search a zombies, we decides to return to the Takagi's house, leave the two monsters and the three of us go through the fence, the guards just give us a look and continue their work. We walked to the mansion as it is the place where everyone went, but when we got to the door I hear an argument from the other side of the house.

Because one of the voices belongs to Hirano calls my attention even more , I look at the girls and they nod, then we change course where the sound comes from. Turning around the corner of the house I find Hirano kneeling on the floor while holding his gun and a man tries to snatch it.

"No! You can't take it off ... this weapon is my life !!"

"Brat, I tell you to drop the gun now!"

Around them were more Soichiro men, but I also see Komuro and Rei from my group, they both had an expression that said they didn't know what to do with this situation. Since everyone was focused on Hirano and the guy who he was arguing with, nobody notices us.

Or perhaps instead of discussion I should say that the man seemed to be intimidating him, because could only see Hirano holding the gun desperately while crying. I quickly understand what is happening, but to confirm it, check Komuro and Rei again with my eyes, checking it out, I get my colt somewhat angry, aim at the sky and shoot.

"Alexander-kun!"

Everyone's attention changes to us, or rather to me. Hirano when he sees me rejoices and quickly approaches my side because that man by the surprise of the shot, had released his weapon, so when he recovers puts his annoying eyes on me. Try to say something, but I speak first by addressing Komuro and Rei.

"Where are your weapons?"

"T-that ..."

"... they took them"

"As I said, it is dangerous for some children to bring weapons with them, fast, you also give me your weapons."

"Are they idiots? Why the hell do you give up your weapons because someone else tells you ?! "

Komuro stutters trying to find words to say, right away Rei responds with her head looking down and then they tremble a little for my voice that had risen when hear their answers. The man was completely ignore for me, the gets more upset and walks to me and extends his arm and tries to hold my shoulder.

"Ah! Don't do that ..."

"Did you not hear me!"

Kurisu tries to warn him of something, but he doesn't listen to she and talks while tries to grab me, before can put his fingers on me, I take his hand with mine, pull him and kick behind one of the knees making him fall in front of me with his back to me, I immediately place the colt's cannon on his temple while I say kindly to him.

"Aaaah !!"

"Haaa, that's why I was trying to tell you to stop"

"Give me back my weapons now!"

Come on man, I don't think it's so hot ... oh damn, smoke is coming out of his skin, it doesn't surprise that it began to stain as if I were killing it. The other men from Soichiro who watched the show when they saw the situation change approach and one of them yelled at me.

"Hey boy, what are you doing, release he fast!"

"Sure, I have no problem with that. Just give me back my weapons."

"You didn't hear it, it's dangerous for them to bring weapons, you can hurt yourself or someone else, that's why all of you must hand over your weapons and let us the a.d.u.l.ts protect you."

"I don't want to hear your nonsense, I want my weapons now. Otherwise the only metal you'll get from me is lead inlays in your body."

At the end of my sentence I remove the weapon from the temple of the kneeling type and aim it at the person who was speaking, when he sees the cannon in his direction goes back with fear in his eyes that seeing the weapon. When things get quiet when they reach a stalemate because none of them take out my weapons and I don't want to shoot, at that moment Soichiro's voice is heard behind me.

"What's going on here?"

I turn my head and see him walking along with Yuriko-san and the others who had left with her. They must have heard the shot and came to check what was happening, seeing Soichiro who responds is the kneeling person.

"Takagi-san help me please, this kid is crazy"

Tch, you shouldn't say bad things about me in front of Yuriko-san, what if she believes you? I will put the cannon on him again if speaks again ... after his words I explain in my defense.

"He lies, I just kindly asked he to return my weapons"

Everyone puts their eyes on me, then on the kneeling guy who had tears in the eyes because of the pain caused by the burn of his temple and finally on the gun in my hands. Kurisu shakes her head while holding her forehead with one hand, Saeko turns her head so we can't see her, but can hear that she tries to suppress her laugh and Hirano swallows a mouthful of saliva while staring at me.

Komuro, Rei and the others have only drops of sweat sliding down their face, nobody says anything and everyone is left without knowing how to answer ... well, it is understandable that they doubt my words, then I use my last resort, smiled childishly in this body of child that I have

"... for now I just want someone to explain what happens to me"

"... that's right, so please put down the weapon Alexander-kun"

Although I didn't get the reaction that wanted from them, they at least talked ... although it would have been better if they got on my side and scolded those guys. Doesn't everyone stand on the side of a cute boy smiling instead of some guy full of dirt crying?

"Maybe it was because of the gun?"

"... well in part that's why, but your smile... more than cute ... it's intimidating, Alex."

Kurisu who is by my side as if reading my thoughts answers my murmurs ... it seems that my smile is not as innocent as I thought, that explains why many tremble when I do. Follow Yuriko-san's instructions and holster the gun as I get away from the kneeling guy, look at Soichiro and answer his question.

"I was just trying to recover the weapons that your men took from those in my group"

Soichiro looks at me and passes his eyes to the other men waiting for them to speak, the kneeling man rose slowly proceeds to give his opinion of what happened.

"Takagi-san, we just thought it was dangerous for children to carry weapons. So we wanted to confiscate them, everyone was obedient at first, only the boy in glasses refused. Then this crazy boy came and made the things worse."

Soichiro listens to everything the guy says, thinks his words and nods, looks at me and speaks like giving a verdict.

"I think what he says is the right thing, weapons are not toys is better-"

"Stop, stop, don't go around there Soichiro. Looks like you're confusing several things here-"

"P-please Soichiro-san don't get mad at Alex, but weapons are important to him"

I interrupt what Soichiro wanted to say because had an idea where he was going with this conversation, but before can explain my point Kurisu stops me and talks when see that he raised an eyebrow and because doesn't like me to intervene.

"Wait Kurisu, he needs to hear this, if he won't continue to misunderstand things"

"Okay, let him talk. I want to hear what he has to say"

Removing Kurisu's hand from my mouth, I speak to her to prevent her from continuing to stop me from expressing myself. With Soichiro's words, she gives up and only stays by my side worry because things can have a bad development.

"Well, the first thing you are wrong about is that I did not come here to ask for your protection or that of others. I will never put my life in the hands of someone else, will live making my own decisions and die in the same way, the only thing I would depend on to survive are my own hands and the tools that I can handle with them, not other people. "

"So you say you don't trust other people?"

When I say it active my aura of the emperor, Soichiro reacts to the pressure for an instant, but due to his level recovers quite quickly and passes his eyes on all the people around me. I can notice Kurisu a little discouraged by my side, shake my head and corrected him.

"Trust and dependence are very independent words of themselves. I trust Kurisu, Saeko and the others, I can accept their help, but I will not put the weight of my life so that they carry it, it only corresponds to me.

Just look around, your house has had to become a small fortress because your closest neighbors try to eat you. So the only way to take my weapons away is to be dead, since losing them means that the next thing they take from me is my life. "

Kurisu smiles again and the others also cheer up, even Soichiro's lips rise a little. He nods and talks to his men.

"You have already listen, there are no children here, there are only people responsible for themselves. Give him back his weapons, since everything is solved, let's go inside to keep talking."

"Y-yes, Takagi-san"

Some men bring Komuro and Rei's weapons and hand them over, after achieving my goal I make a assent to Soichiro and we walk home with everyone. We entered and can observe the interior of this one, it looked like an old mansion, but with that is not as if I want mean its worn, only that the facade was rustic.

It was decorated in a refined way, but without any extravagance, it agreed well with the character of the Takagi couple , but although it did not look so luxurious you could see that they lived a good life economically far superior to that of an average person.

"Let's go to the meeting room to talk"

"Sure"

We walk through the corridors until reach a room with a large table for many people, adorned with paintings in the wall of what should have been the ancestors of Soichiro. Everyone starts to take a seat, so I also take a place with Kurisu and Saeko by my side. Although I already knew it, I asked the question that was in everyone's head so that they would also find out.

"You know how impaired is the situation general in other parts after infection ?"

"We lost contact with the capital and the government from the previous day, but what we could discover before that happened, was that things are very bad. What we face is a worldwide pandemic, so it is impossible for any government or organization can send help everywhere.

That practically means that we are alone on our own and have to maintain our safety for ourselves. Thanks to our influence, Yuriko and I were able to organize a group between our acquaintances and neighbors to fight and save more survivors and make sure this place. "

With Soichiro's answers, everyone in the place puts serious and worried faces. Well, the atmosphere was not depressing because the previous night we already had a conversation of this kind, they had some preparation to receive the news. Even so, hearing the confirmation and that it is not just mere speculation has some impact on them.

"Well, we had already known that things could be very bad, just have to keep doing what have done so far. Survive with our own strength in this world, at least we are not completely alone, we have ourselves to support us "

"Alexander-kun is right, don't be discouraged since that won't help at all."

I try to lift everyone's mood and Yuriko-san follows me with her words, the others raise their heads and nod strongly. With the revived environment I talk about the problem that worried me more than anything.

"We need to change the camp location, although you have made an effort trying to reinforce the surroundings, that will not resist if a large group of zombies attack us"

In the anime I remember that in the end this camp manages to be invaded by zombies, and if the plot continues the same way, it makes no sense to protect a place that is doomed to have its defenses brokens.
