Became A Necromancer In a Zombie World

"Damn, that pigeon's still following us."

Crunch, crunch.

Iarin munched on the potato chips beside her while watching the drone's monitor.

Dark room.

But the room was lit softly by a camping lamp.

The room was cluttered with all sorts of electronic gadgets, telescopes, fire starters, solid fuel, and other crap.

"Ugh... Once I finish these, what the hell am I gonna eat next?"

Iarin sighed, looking at the nearly empty bag of chips.

But her sigh wasn't about the food shortage.

"Should've stocked up on more snacks if I knew this shit was gonna happen..."

She leaned back in her chair, which was surrounded by a mountain of unopened canned food.

'If I had known a real zombie apocalypse was coming... I would've bought all sorts of shit.'

She was what you'd call 'prepared'.

Living in peace but always ready for a possible apocalypse.

Her house had solar panels on the roof.

She had installed ample emergency batteries and a water filtration system when she got the place, even though it had its limits.

Thanks to this, even months after the zombie outbreak, Iarin's life hadn't changed much from before the pandemic.

'I hardly left the house anyway.'

She was what you'd call a 'rich bitch'.

Born the youngest daughter to a famous politician father and a successful cosmetics CEO mother.

But her antisocial personality caused issues even at home.

Her parents, fed up with their troublesome daughter, gave her money and a house and kicked her out.

She lived like a shut-in for a year, enjoying her solitude.

Then, one day, the zombie shit hit the fan.

Her hobby of collecting survival gear and emergency food saved her ass.

Beep, beep.

[Your food is well-cooked~]

After using her drone to scout outside as usual, Iarin picked up her handheld gaming console and started playing.

In the game, a hunter was grilling meat while wielding a huge sword.

'If I run out of food, guess I'll have to hunt.'

She had slingshots and compound bows at home for self-defense.

Of course, she didn't have many bullets or arrows, and she didn't know how to use them properly.

She just enjoyed a brief moment of comfort while waiting for her uncertain future.

She turned her focus back to the game, ignoring the dwindling food supplies.

With no internet, electronic entertainment was all she had left.

'I'm not cut out to be the hero anyway.'

She didn't think about saving others with her resources or finding safe zones.

'That's hero shit, not for me.'

She knew she wasn't the type to lead or save people.

She was better off supporting someone else who could do that.

Just following the hero of a zombie flick, helping out a bit here and there, that was her plan.

But the hero she was waiting for never showed up.

[Meow~]

"Ah, shit, lost my last cart..."

Lost in her thoughts, Iarin lost the game, which felt like a metaphor for her own survival chances, killing her mood. She turned off the game.

"...Where's my damn savior?"

She wanted someone who could pull off impossible feats, lead survivors, and save the world in a zombie story.

Iarin hoped to find such a person soon so she could live without worries.

'Playing games in this mess?'

I followed a drone flying during the zombie apocalypse to find a girl living in a fancy house.

She looked about my age.

'...Damn, her room though.'

It was a mess.

Not exactly a trash heap, but full of gadgets and tools.

It was the opposite of Yoo Hayeon's neat room I had seen recently.

But.

The girl in her messy room, wearing dolphin shorts and a white tank top, was hot as hell.

Sure, she was a pigeon, but my dick was getting hard.

'Plus, those tits and face, damn.'

I perched on a nearby power line, observing the girl in the room.

She looked unmotivated.

After landing the drone on the roof, she casually started playing her game.

Even in a zombie apocalypse, her calm was too much.

'Has she given up on life?'

Even with all the food in her room, most people would be freaking out like Yoo Hayeon.

It was like her room was detached from the zombie world.

'I'll check on her later.'

From the looks of her solar setup and the state of her house, she seemed set for a while.

I noted the house's location, planning to return later.

If she's a virgin, she's valuable XP for me.

Plus, with her setup, she could be pretty useful in this zombie mess.

With that, I flew back to the department store.

[Ending possession of entity 'Pigeon'.]

I landed the pigeon on the department store terrace and ended the skill.

"Oh, you're up?"

I opened my eyes to find Yoo Hayeon looking up at me from my lap.

She was asleep when I possessed the pigeon.

"When did you start cuddling?"

"I thought you'd be cold sleeping like that... Hehe, about 10 minutes ago."

It seems when I possess something, my body falls asleep.

And Yoo Hayeon had woken up, snuggled into my lap, and was holding my waist.

"Good girl, you deserve a reward. Take off your pants."

"...Yes."

Blushing, Yoo Hayeon obediently removed her lower garments.

Then, I fucked her pale pussy until I came inside her again.

"...Ahh♥"

After she climaxed, I kneaded her trembling ass and kissed her lips before getting up from the bed.

'My sex drive isn't going down even after doing it twice today.'

I thought the meme about doing it four times with Hyejeong was bullshit, but with Yoo Hayeon, I could go six or seven times.

'...Maybe I've changed a bit?'

After all, I became a necromancer and grew by taking Yoo Hayeon's virginity.

In most games, when you level up, your stamina increases too.

'I can't see my stats, so who knows.'

"Mmm... slurp, slurp."

After her climax, Yoo Hayeon started cleaning my dick with her mouth, following my training.

I patted her head, proud of her.

'Fucking perfect.'

Having a girl like this to fuck whenever I want and cum inside, it's the best.

It's a dream scenario I couldn't have imagined before.

'I'm getting greedy.'

Humans always want more; when standing, you want to sit, when sitting, you want to lie down.

Having Yoo Hayeon like this made me eye other women too.

Especially that survivor girl from earlier or Ryudahee from the dorm.

I wanted to ravage their slutty tits too.

'It'll happen soon.'

If I keep growing my powers, I'll make them all beg for my dick.

I'll keep taking virgins to grow stronger, build my paradise around this department store, and screw over Captain Kang Haseok and his crew.

That's my plan.

"Alright, time to get to work."

"Huh? Where are you going?"

"Just got some stuff to do. You stay here and rest. Need anything?"

"I want to help too!"

As I was getting dressed, Yoo Hayeon hurried to put on her clothes.

"It's too dangerous for you to help."

"But..."

"Tell me what you need. I'll get it for you."

"Anything?"

Yoo Hayeon tilted her head, probably wondering what 'anything' covered.

Sure, if she asked for a plane or a yacht, that'd be tough.

But anything else, I could probably get.

The world outside was full of unclaimed stuff.

I didn't really need to do this for her, but she worked hard for me, so I wanted to.

Plus, seeing that survivor girl casually gaming made me think Yoo Hayeon might be bored.

"...Um, then."

Yoo Hayeon hesitated, then wrote something on a notepad and handed it to me.

"Makeup?"

"Oh! If it's too hard, it's really okay!"

"No, it's not about it being hard... You need makeup in this situation?"

It was a genuine question.

Even for a young girl, wanting makeup over food or clothes in a survival scenario seemed odd.

Feeling embarrassed by her request, Yoo Hayeon lowered her head.

"Sorry... I just want to look pretty..."

"Oh, that's what it was?"

I chuckled.

She must have been self-conscious about how she looked to me.

There was makeup in the stuff she brought from her old place.

But her wanting to look pretty for me made me feel good.

"Alright, I'll be back."

"Be careful!"

Yoo Hayeon waved goodbye in her panties as I left.

'Fucking hot. I'll definitely fuck her again when I get back.'

Now, what I needed to do next was clear the survival quest, which had been my goal since I first started scavenging.

[Corpses 1/20]

After completing the growth quest, I unlocked the skill window and could use skills.

That's how I got the pigeon zombie, which was more useful than the mechanical drone.

'Wonder what I'll get for clearing the survival quest.'

I was excited.

It was probably going to be a base-related ability, like the first quest that helped establish my base.

Ding.

[Corpses 19/20]

"Alright, just one more to go."

I had been dragging zombies from outside to feed the crystal in the basement.

The quest progress filled up quickly.

"You're the last one."

I placed the last zombie in front of the crystal.

-Ugh...

The zombie reacted to the crystal, turning into particles of light and being absorbed.

Ding.

[Corpses 20/20]

"Done! Cleared!"

I immediately pressed the [Complete] button that appeared next to the quest.

Ding.

[Survival Quest 2 has been cleared. Your base level increases.]

[Base LV. 2

Location: S Department Store Basement 1]

Messages about clearing the quest popped up one after another.

But I dismissed them quickly, eager to see what came next.

What I wanted wasn't just this.

And then, the notication I was waiting for appeared.

[With the increase in base level, you can now acquire base skills. Please choose one.]

[1. Impenetrable]

[2. Recycling]

[3. Self-repair]

"Skills are up!"

I cheered at the sight of the new pop-up.
