Sun God's Chronicles

Dashing forward, I cross the distance between us almost in an instant, moving much faster than she can comprehend I get right beside her. Lowering my right arm, I lean on my right leg and clench my right fist before throwing a powerful uppercut right at the woman's chin. My fist punches through her chin and face, destroying most of her head and sending her bloody brain matter right at the ceiling. Her body jumps about a meter in the air and comes crashing down on her back, making a puddle of blood under where her head was a second ago.

"I told you."

Looking at my bloodstained hand dripping her crimson blood, I purse my lips.

" Now my hand's all dirty because of you."

Turning my attention to the body, I see that right beside it a floating blue orb appears. I lean over to grab it.

Unknown Woman: "Senior Matsushima! Noooo! You'll pay for that!"

Rapidly turning my head to the side I see an immense blue sphere coming at me at high speeds. It's too close so I can't dodge it like I did to the electricity. Lifting my arms in front of me, I brace myself for the impact. The blue sphere hits me and I feel its overpowering weight crashing against me, it takes me through the wall and for many meter before turning watery and I realize it was a sphere made of water. Lying on the ground, completely wet and slightly breathless, I sit up.

"Water? Fuck."

Looking at my arms, I feel a sharp throbbing pain. I can also feel that beneath the already purple bruises in my arms, the bones in my forearm have cracked under the extreme pressure of that attack.

"Holy... shit."

Ignoring the pain, I get up and rub my arms then look at who did that. Crouching near the headless corpse of the female office, crying, is another female officer and a third woman who is standing with a shocked expression on her face. The female officer No°2 is a small woman with short light brown hair and bangs pushed to the right side of her face and blue eyes. She also wears the Tokonosu Police station uniform. On the other hand, the standing woman blankly stares at the dead officer. She is a quite chubby and fairly tall, has long black hair tied in a loose ponytail with the front combed down along with a small strand hanging over her face, and wears a white shirt and blue jeans pants.

"Who? Who did that?"

They turn to look at me and the female officer No°2 looks shocked.

Female Officer No°2: "You're still alive?!"

She lifts her right hand and points the palm at me.

Female Officer No°2: "D-Die!"

Dodging to the side before she can do that attack again, I see the gigantic water sphere forming in midair right in front of her hand and getting shot at where I was standing. Frowning, I rush in her direction and get back into the store. As soon as I get near her, I move my arm and grab her neck but I look at my hand and just see a blood red and white mass. Looking behind me, I see the female officer No°2's head near her own headless corpse, still with shock written in her face. Her expression rapidly softens as life comes out of her.

"(What... happened?)

Confused, I look back at my hand. It takes a couple of seconds to realize that the thing I'm holding is similar to a neck, a human neck. The female officer No°2's neck to be precise.

"(How did this happen? I did want to kill her but didn't expect to happen like this. Guess I was moving too fast? This is troublesome, I need to learn to control my strength better. Gotta find more zombies to train.)"

Throwing the neck on the ground, I get rid of the confusion in my face and turn to the only female alive, who is prostrating on the ground.

Unknown Woman: "Please don't kill me."

Shaking my head, I look at my bloodied hands and then at her. I can't help but find her calmness a bit weird. Usually people in her situation would be screaming and stuttering but she isn't.

"I won't kill you, at least I won't if you don't try anything funny. They did and paid the price. Anyway, gotta go. Need to find more zombies to take care of. Good luck out there."

I walk by the corpses of both officers and grab the orbs that each one dropped before putting them in my pocket.

Unknown Woman: "Thank you for sparing me. Mister, can I come with you?"

Turning around, I look at her and see she's still prostrating.

"No."

She lifts her head and stares back at me.

Unknown Woman: "Please, think again. I'll do whatever you want and let you do whatever you want with me. No matter what."

Her words makes me remember Taniuchi and Kawamoto, and how Yuuki insisted in taking them to the villa.

"(Or were they the ones who insisted put that thought in her head? Now I don't know. Never really talked with them before things went crazy so I don't know shit about their personality.) I said no. But tell me, why do you want to come with me? If you're honest I might think again (I won't.)"

She straightens her upper body and rests her hands on her massive thighs. Her eyes are locked on mine. She smiles a little.

Unknown Woman: "It's weird to explain but the whole world has gotten weird anyways."

Her expression then turns hard to read.

Unknown Woman: "Have you ever had an itch you just had to scratch no matter what? You could have ignored it and it would probably stop itching on its own but you scratched it anyway and it felt really good. It's kinda like that. I feel like I need to follow you no matter where you go and do whatever you tell me, no matter what. I can ignore it but it's really hard and annoying. So, I ask you again, can I come with you?"

Her eyes didn't left mine not even for a second.

"An irresistible itch... (So this is how Human Boss works. Did it work the same way to the others? They surely didn't seem to have such intense urge to do whatever I told them. But they did do as I told them do I guess it was working. Anyway... What do I do?)"

Staring at her eyes, she suddenly moves her hands and lifts her shirt. Her big round tits bounce up and down before stopping, her pink puffy nipples and areola stand out in plain sight in the middle of each breast. Her expression turns a sultry and she crawls at me.

Unknown Woman: "Yes. It's itchy. So itchy I can't resist. So please, take me with you. You're strong and powerful, and I'll do my best to fulfill any of your requests whatever it may be."

She stops right between my legs and sits down, she starts to rub my crotch with her hands. Frowning, I grab her neck and lift her up until her feet aren't touching the ground.

"Already forgot what I said? Don't do anything funny. Just answer my questions or I'll break your neck."

She grasps my wrist and looks a little panicky.

Unknown Woman: " Of course! Of course!"

Putting her down, I ask her many things. Who she is, what was she doing, who were the officers, if there was more of them, things like that. She explains everything to me, not leaving any detail behind. She is Seto Yoshikawa, 33, and was searching for supplies for her group. She used to live in the uptown but had to move out because of the zombies. She sticked to a group who had a couple of police officers and many who had to run from home just like her. Their HQ is in the city's shopping center and there should be a couple of dozens if not a hundred people in there. The officers I killed where the strongest of their "scavengers", as they call it, which is also one of the reasons she want to stick to me. Though, the thing that takes me by surprise is that she says she spent a week with her group. Which shouldn't be possible.

"Wait, wait, wait. A week? What are on? Everything started couple hours ago. The zombies and all this."

She frowns and looks at me as if I'm crazy.

Seto: "Hours ago? No, it's been a week already."

I widen my eyes.

"A week? Are you sure?"

She nods.

Seto: "Absolutely."

I look down.

"(How? What happened? If what she says is correct, then why can't I remember anything?)"

Placing my hand on my head, I frown.

Seto: "Wait, let me look at that."

She points at my hand.

"At what? This?"

I show it to her.

Seto: "Yeah."

She grabs my hand and approaches me, putting her back against my belly. I can feel her fingers tracing my wrist.

Seto: "Seven. This is a seven. You grew stronger seven times, already? Unbelievable."

She looks at me and I look back at her.

"Yeah. That much I figured. It's kinda like a game's level up."

She shakes her head.

Seto: "Kinda, but you're missing out an important thing. Marks like this one are on the bodies of pretty much every combat member of the shopping mall. All we know about it is that if you kill enough, zombies or not, marks like these appear on the body and people who have marks are much stronger than those who don't. First it starts with a one in roman numeral and then progress to two, and the furthest I've seen is a three. Seven with this one now. The higher the number, the stronger the person is. And, the most important thing is that whenever someone gets a mark, or the mark's number increases, they are knocked out for an entire day. We checked it and they stay out for, exactly, 24 hours. You said things started hours ago when it's already been a week and you have a seven on your arm-"

I interrupt her.

"So, I've been sleeping for an entire week? Holy fucking shit."
