Chapter 124: Chapter 124: The Disturbing Encounter

Ryo decided to check out the nearby apartment building. Not for scavenging or supplies—he just felt bored. There was still time before he needed to head back to his base, and the uneventful quiet was starting to get to him. With no real plan in mind, he commanded one of the zombies to follow him while he readied his MP5.Just in case something unexpected happened, he could use the zombie as a shield while he retreated.

As he ascended the stairs, Ryo suddenly heard a low groan echoing through the hallway. Curious, he decided to investigate. His zombie companion let out a growl in response to the noise, and Ryo commanded it to lead the way. With his MP5 gripped tightly, he followed the zombie toward the source of the sound.

The zombie stopped at a door. Ryo narrowed his eyes, hearing the groans more clearly now. Slowly, he opened the door and stepped inside. The sunlight streaming through the windows provided enough light for him to see, but the groaning noises from the kitchen area continued. The zombie with him growled louder, more agitated, as if sensing something unusual.

Cautiously, Ryo commanded the zombie to stay at the door, ready to act if needed. He crept toward the kitchen, his MP5 at the ready. The groans grew louder with every step, and Ryo's instincts sharpened, expecting some kind of threat.

But what he found shocked him to his core.

In the kitchen, there was a man—a survivor, by the looks of him—engaged in something that Ryo couldn't have imagined in his wildest thoughts. Several female zombies were surrounding the man, their bodies unrotted, skin smooth, as if unaffected by the decay that usually ravaged the undead. And the man... he was having intimate sex with the zombies.

Ryo's grip on his MP5 tightened, his mind reeling at the sheer absurdity and horror of what he was witnessing.

"What the fuck..." Ryo muttered under his breath, his stomach twisting in disgust.

The man, startled by Ryo's sudden appearance, spun around, eyes wide with panic. He tried to shout at the female zombies, "Attack him!" But nothing happened. The zombies just stood there, motionless.

Ryo smirked, shaking his head in disbelief. "Gross. You fucked the zombies?"

The man fumbled to pull out of the female zombies, hastily fixing his pants while glaring at Ryo. "It's not... it's not like that," he stammered, clearly flustered and embarrassed. "They... they listen after..."

Ryo raised an eyebrow, pointing his MP5 at the man, disgusted yet curious. "You control zombies? Is that what you're saying?" His tone was sharp, tinged with disbelief. The thought of someone else controlling zombies put him on edge.

The man slowly raised his hands in surrender, showing he had no weapon. "I—I can't control all of them. Just the females. It's... it's the only way. After I...

y'know." He shifted uncomfortably, his voice trembling. "It's my choice. My... taste."

Ryo felt a wave of disgust but also morbid curiosity. "So, you're telling me that the only zombies you can 'control' are the ones you've... had sex with?"

The man nodded quickly, his face flushed with shame. "Yeah, it's the only way I can survive. They won't attack me after... after that."

Ryo's face twisted in revulsion. "That's sick," he muttered, taking a step back. He couldn't believe the depths some people had sunk to in this world. But this man wasn't a threat—not in the way Ryo had initially thought. Still, the situation left a bitter taste in his mouth.

"And what? You think that makes you safe? Walking around with your harem of dead girls?" Ryo scoffed, lowering his gun slightly but still keeping his distance. The whole thing was bizarre, but at least now Ryo knew the man wasn't the kind of threat he initially feared.

"Look, man, it's not like I had a choice. It was either this or become zombie food," the man muttered, his voice trembling. He glanced nervously at the female zombies around him. "They just... follow me after..you know...ah shit.."

Ryo grimaced, shaking his head again in disbelief. "You're disgusting. But whatever. Keep your distance, and maybe you'll survive a bit longer."

The man raised his hands higher in defense, his voice shaking with nervousness. "Hey man, chill! I'm not looking for trouble. I just want to survive." He gestured towards the female zombies near him. "The only way I can scavenge safely is with... them.

My female zombies follow me and guard me during the day. The other zombies won't attack me as long as they're around. And when night falls, I make sure to hide. The danger at night is much worse than during the day."

Ryo narrowed his eyes, still pointing the MP5 at the man. His expression twisted into a sneer. "Whatever. Just don't try to steal my girl."

The man's eyes widened in surprise, his face paling. "You... you found a girl? Alive? Not a zombie?" His disbelief was clear, as though he hadn't even considered the possibility of a living, breathing human woman.

Ryo's grip on the MP5 tightened as he glared at the man. "Yeah. And don't you even think about it," he warned, his voice low and dangerous. "What's mine is mine, asshole. Don't try anything funny."

The man immediately stepped back, raising his hands higher in surrender, his voice trembling. "Whoa, whoa! I wouldn't dare, man! I'm not looking for trouble here, I swear. I just want to survive."

Ryo kept his gaze locked on the man, scanning him for any signs of deceit. After a tense moment, the man cautiously asked, "What's your name? How are you able to move around with all these zombies roaming everywhere? You've got to have some serious luck."

Ryo smirked, lowering his MP5 slightly, though his guard remained up. "Luck has nothing to do with it," he replied coldly, his voice steady. "Let's just say I've got a way with these zombies. They don't touch me."

The man's jaw dropped in shock. "You... you can control them? Like, all of them? That's how you move so freely?"

Ryo didn't answer immediately, letting the silence hang in the air, amplifying the tension. Then, with a slight nod, he added, "Yeah. Something like that. But don't think that means you're safe around me. One wrong move, and you'll be zombie food just like everyone else."

The man gulped, clearly understanding Ryo's warning. "Got it, man. No funny business from me. Just... just trying to survive, same as you."

Ryo gave him one last cold glance before stepping back. "Good. Now get out of my sight. You're wasting my time."

Without waiting for a response, Ryo turned and walked away, leaving the man standing there, hands still raised.

"Hey, wait…" the man called out, desperation in his voice as Ryo turned to leave.

Ryo stopped, turning slowly with an annoyed glare. "What do you need, zombie fucker?"

The man raised his hands again in a placating gesture, trying to calm Ryo down. "Chill, man... just call me Ken."

Ryo's face remained cold as he folded his arms. "So? What do you want, Ken... the zombie fucker?"

Ken scratched the back of his head nervously, letting out an awkward chuckle. "Hey man, chill. This is the first time I've found another person, alive, you know? Just thought maybe we could be friends or something like that? Get in touch, you know?"

Ryo's eyes narrowed, his expression hardening even more. "Friends? So you can try to fuck my woman, Sachiko, the first chance you get?"

Ken waved his hands frantically. "No, no, man! You got it wrong! I swear! I'm... uh, only interested in these, you know...

zombie females." He scratched his head again, clearly embarrassed. "Maybe you could, uh... let me live in your area? So I can find more zombie females?"

Ryo's face contorted with disgust. "You want to live near my base? Not happening. I don't like the idea of a creep like you anywhere near my place."

Ken's face fell, his desperation growing as he tried to reason with Ryo. "Okay, okay, I get it. But... can I at least live in the same town? Like, on the outskirts or something? I promise I won't touch your woman, man.

I'm just happy to find someone to talk to, that's all."

Ryo studied him for a moment, his expression unreadable. He didn't trust Ken, not for a second. But at the same time, the man seemed so pathetic and harmless, fixated on his strange obsession with female zombies. After a long pause, Ryo spoke.

"You can live in the town," Ryo finally said, his voice low and firm. "But don't get any ideas. You stay far away from me and my base. You cross the line, and you'll wish you were zombie food."

Ken nodded eagerly, relief washing over his face. "Got it, man. No problem. I'll stay out of your way, I swear."

Ryo gave him one last cold look before turning and walking away, leaving Ken standing there, relieved but visibly shaken.

As Ryo descended the stairs, his mind churned with revulsion over the encounter with Ken. The man's obsession with female zombies was unsettling, and Ryo found himself disgusted by the whole situation. He knew it was Ken's choice to indulge in such depravity, but Ryo's patience had its limits.

He muttered to himself, "Whatever. As long as he doesn't touch Sachiko or come near my base, he can stay in the town. But if he tries anything funny, he'll end up as zombie food. No second chances."

Ryo shook his head, pushing the unsettling encounter to the back of his mind. His focus shifted back to the task at hand—finding a suitable vehicle and preparing for the future. The thought of Ken lurking in the town was an annoying distraction, but Ryo was determined to maintain his control over his territory and protect his interests.

Ryo's mood darkened as he thought about the unsettling encounter with Ken. The idea of dealing with that kind of depravity left him feeling irritated. He decided it was best to cut his search short for the day and head back to his base.

He climbed onto his scooter, the weight of the day's disturbing events making him eager to return home. With the loot he had gathered and his initial plans sidelined, he focused on one thing: getting back to Sachiko. The thought of seeing her, indulging in their intimate moments, and recording their passion provided a welcome distraction from the unsettling encounter.

Ryo started the scooter and navigated out of the town, his mind was already on the comforts of home and the plans he had for the evening. He was eager to put the day's disturbances behind him and enjoy the time with Sachiko, hoping it would restore his mood and bring him the satisfaction he was craving.
