Chapter 116: I have no regrets!
"Wh-what's happening?!"
Whether it was Shizuka, Yuriko, or Saya, they were dumbfounded when they saw the billowing black smoke in the direction of the estate. Nevertheless, even though they didn't know, they knew that something bad was happening.
Then, as expected, when they got close, they saw a stranded bus in the wrecked state along with many familiar corpses.
Isao had a sense that trouble was brewing, but he never anticipated it to strike while he was away, catching him completely off guard.
'If I know...'
No, it was like he forgot about it, which made him helpless.
Still, this also made him realize how weak he was since, while he had become more powerful, he could do nothing against something invisible, such as fate, accident, or simply bad luck.
Nevertheless, Isao knew that there was still room for maneuvers and that he should still be able to save everyone, especially his women, so he crashed the bus and the walls directly with his truck RV.
BOOOOOOOMMMM!
Everything was wrecked by a simple force that came from this RV, which was protected by his shockwave manipulation ability.
Watching how powerful this truck was, Yuriko, Saya, and Shizuka were glad that Isao chose this RV instead of the one with a jacuzzi or a small SUV.
The roar of the truck was like the roar of Hades, killing everything along the way before they quickly arrived at the estate that had almost turned into a ruin. However, fortunately, many were still fighting, and the hope hadn't died yet.
Naturally, Isao drove the truck skillfully, killing those "things," stomped them, and sent them to Isekai.
Jokes aside, those "things" didn't stand a chance against his truck.
"T-Truck?!"
"I-is that Iinuma-kun?"
"We are saved!"
Many knew that Isao had gone out to take an RV, but they didn't expect that he would bring back an off-road truck usually used for the military. Yet it didn't matter since he had returned and saved everyone.
Still, the truck was quite massive, and its maneuverability was quite limited inside the estate, even if the yard was quite large, especially given the number of people in the surroundings, so Isao went out to save everyone.
"Marikawa-sensei, just stay inside."
"Um!" Shizuka was obedient and decided to stay inside the truck.
"As for you two, help me a little."
"Okay." 2x
Yuriko and Saya were worried about Souichiro, but as they caught a glimpse of him bravely fighting with his katana in front of everyone, they knew that he was okay.
Still, when Isao went out, it was a bloodbath. Those "things" didn't stand a chance against him.
As his right hand held a baton, his left hand held a gun, shooting those "things" that were about to devour the survivors.
Souichiro, who fought with everyone, and those survivors who saw Isao were all amazed since his figure was like a "God of War."
Isao, who stood at the wall like a cat, watched this scene speechlessly, but using his physical ability and spirit, Souichiro was able to defeat all of those "things," showing his duty and example as a leader until the last moment.
Those who had followed him even cried when they saw how Souichiro fought until the last moment.
Still, Souichiro knew that his end was near, especially when he was bitten, so after he took down all of them, he fell to the ground as he saw his wife and daughter run in his direction.
"Yuriko... Saya... I am glad that you two are okay..."
Souichiro looked at his wife and daughter with a peaceful smile.
"Papa! Papa!" Saya cried as she looked at her father, who was about to become those "things."
"Dear..." Yuriko was at a loss, and her tears couldn't be stopped.
Still, even if they knew that Souichiro was about to become those "things," they didn't know what to do. Even if they were smart and could do anything, they didn't know what to do.
"Souichiro-san!"
Isao also came to Souichiro's side after he drew out all of those "things," ignoring how Souichiro might become those "things" holding his body. Still, at this moment, he had already planned to save Souichiro, using his ability to save him so Souichiro wouldn't become one of those "things."
Yes, he had planned to make Souichiro into a messiah, the leader of everyone, who was immune from the bite of those "things."
After all, wasn't it a common plot where one person who was bitten suddenly gained immunity from the virus and became the source of an antidote to save everyone?
Isao planned to make Souichiro into such a being.
Even if Souichiro was bitten, Isao had a solution to save him.
"You don't have to hold me like this. I will become one of those "things," you know?" Souichiro looked at Isao helplessly, but he was glad that Isao was there and Isao was the one who held him even though he was about to become those "things." "But I am glad that you are here. Please take care of my wife and daughter in my place."
"....."
What the fuck were you saying?!
Isao was at a loss since he didn't expect that Souichiro would say something like that so suddenly.
"I have no regrets!"
As Souichiro shouted those words, Isao was speechless and ready to make him into a messiah, but—
Bang!
"...."
The sound of a gunshot caused his ears to make his hearing ring.
Isao lost his voice as a warm liquid splatted on his face and watched Souichiro's head being shot. He was ready to help him, and everything should go in his direction, leaving everything to him and starting his trip around the country.
However—
The only thing was that Isao didn't expect Yuriko, Souichiro's wife, to shoot her husband.
"....."
