Author note: YOU MIGHT BE DISGUSTED BY WHAT FOLLOWS! SO READ AT YOUR OWN RISK!
actually, man up and read it. ((this goes to both genders :3))
as for the real reason i've written this, if you spot any grammar mistake, point 'em out!
P.S. this chapter’s pace is actually quite slow, and i apologize for that.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
i’m an idiot!
i completely forgot that zombies respond to sounds!!
for now, i’ve ran toward a car i found left alone.
this thing has fuel but no electricity.
we need to hurry up and get this running, or we’re going to get eaten by the zombies...
our only saving grace is that they’re pretty much slow.
“Damn! how can the battery be dead?!”
i’m currently looking at the black SUV.
i mean, if we’re talking about a zombie apocalypse, your ride has to be an SUV!
i tried looking at Acil, but the culture-shock is too much on her.
zombies was still within her range of prediction, but seeing the skyscrapers and cars has set her in a daze.
damn!
where’s the cool and collective Acidalia?!
noticing the zombies getting near us in a horrifying numbers, i quickly grab Acil’s hand and push her inside the SUV.
she then came back to her senses.
“Hey Acil! i don’t care if you stare in the air all day long, but can you atleast use your godly abilities?!”
as soon as i said that, Acil bit her lower lip.
her gaze changed from shock to regret.
“It seems that you can’t.....”
damn!
i don’t want to use my powers at all!!
but this leaves me no choice.
“「I, The possessor of all knowledge have understood the laws and hereby bend them to my will」
「STATIC!」”
with that said, my right arm which was extended toward the wheel had a sharp pain run through it.
and with that, all the power that was in my right arm transferred to the battery in the car through the steering wheel.
and now......my right arm is unusable.
the roaring engine freaked out Acil while it attracted even more zombies toward us.
“Damn! but no matter, with this over here....i can run over them all i want!”
with that said, i decided to drive at full force, taking down all the zombies in front of me.
“Wooooaaaahh!? just what is this?! is this an automatic carriage?!?!”
“Shut up for a second, will you?!”
i said toward the useless goddess that is supposed to be my master.

Acil then glanced toward me and was dumbfounded.
“W-why.....why are you smiling in this unknown situation?!”
she said.
for a moment, i doubt she really rose to power from rank F.
is she just good at playing games?
but either way, i know exactly why she’s shocked.
because right now......i’m smiling.
i’m bearing such a cheerful smile in this miserable situation.
i mean, how couldn’t i bare such a smile in this situation?!
in the end, do you know how many days it has been since i got to heaven?
3 DAYS!
just 3 days!!
“And here i thought heaven was a boring place.....!”
if i had known it was this interesting, i wouldn’t have bothered reincarnating!
That's when my field of view changed.
“AHH!!!”
“You god damn idiot! even though i’ve known you for less than a day, you’re always stuck in your own little world! pay attention to the outside a little, would you?!”
she just hit the back of my head, and from there, my forehead went straight toward the driving wheel.
that of course......led to the steering wheel to go toward the left.
~Bump
and the car was shaking........miserably.
“That was dangerous! what the hell are you doing?!”
i said that after looking at the world of destruction that little mishap caused.
dead, rotting bodies were everywhere, since in the end, i just went head on with a horde of zombies.
the smell was so bad, it could’ve knocked you out if you were not paying any attention.
unlike the usual cool appearance, Acil was obviously shaken.
i then took my left hand from the steering wheel and patted her head.
“Don’t worry, i have everything under control”
i said, while revealing a reassuring smile.
i guess in the end, she doesn’t want to lose.
since....we don’t know what happens when we do.
or....she might be hiding something from me, about these dead worlds.
but i quickly dismissed the idea, because doubting each other now is only going to bring us discord.
~Shake
~~Shake
the car is....shaking.
even though i’ve stopped it for now, the engine is still running.
as soon as i remembered exactly why its shaking, i was mortified.
“Shit.....!”
we were surrounded by zombies.
“Dammit! this is what happens when you’re stuck in your own world for too long!”
said Acil, trying to shift the blame toward Alex.
but to her surprise, Alex only looked at her and smiled.

Alex could always try to run over all of them, but in the end....the car isn’t going to survive.
but what can Alex do to survive this?
he can.....use a diversion.
since zombies can’t see, he needs something that smells and gives out a sound.
he then came up with a very......horrible idea.
“Listen up Acil.....i need you to shut your eyes and ears.”
“Huh? what are you up to?! drive this weird thing and get us out of here!”
“And that's what i’m trying to do! just listen to me for a second, and close your eyes and ears!”
seeing as she has done as instructed, Alex proceeded into the next phase of his plan.
“Can you hear me!?”
seeing no answer, he then went on and asked a final question.
“Woah?! whats that?!”
he looked and pointed to the back of the car.
he then shifted his gaze back toward Acil.
with no reaction at all, he confirmed that she indeed listened to what he said.
he then took out his socks.
“damn.....this is truly a horrible idea.”
Alex, have moved toward the trunks of the car via jumping over the back seat took down his pants.
with tears swelling in his eyes, he began thinking for another plan.....but the driver’s side window broke.
and from it, the countless growls of the undead leaked in.
“There is no time to think about it! its now or never!!”
he took the sock, and positioned it near his bottom.
as for the rest....i’ll omit it.
now then, i did consider going for pee rather than crap, but the pee is going to ruin the radio i am planning to equip with the smell.
and with that, i’ll have both sound and smell.
now then, lets get the radio electrocharged and in the sock.
i then returned my pants to its rightful place and inserted the working radio into the sock.
Acil, who didn’t cover her nose, opened her eyes, horrified by the smell.
“Y-y-y-you---!”
“Shut up! you’ll understand why in a moment!!”
i quickly got back to my seat, and threw the sock outside the broken window that was full of zombie hands.
and........nothing happened.
“DAMMIT!”
at the same time that Alex cried in regret about his useless, disgusting plan, Acil tried to hit him, but retracted her hand as soon as she remembered what he had just done.
the zombies, showing no signs of backing off, began shaking the car even more.
“Err.....did i just piss them off......?”
“YOU THINK?! you fucking pervert!”
at the same time Acil said that, a spark hit the car from god knows where and the engine roared, as if urging Alex to press the pedal.
“Ahh! whatever!!”
As soon as Alex finished saying that, he stomped on the gas pedal as hard as he can and somehow ran over the hordes and hordes of zombies in front of him.
the hands that were extended inside the car from the windows got severed and either entered the car or got knocked outside.
“Phew....that somehow saved as....but what was that?”
asked Alex.
since normally, with the power of the of the SUV, its impossible to run over all the zombies in front of them, or any of the surrounding them to begin with.
but the car suddenly had a boost in power, which was the only thing he can thank god for.
“It looks.....like some of my power leaked out.”
said Acil while showing a bitter expression, biting her lower lip.
“Wait...if you have powers, then why didn’t you use them to start with?!”
Asked Alex.
in the end, he is angry.
since if she used her ‘power’ from the start, he wouldn’t have to use his last-resort plan.
he then remembered Acil denying the fact that she even had them at the start.
which made him even more enraged.
“That's because.....there is no spiritual power here. so unlike you, who can survive without them....i cant. since i’m a god and all. so i have to save up all i can while i’m here....”
said Acil.
as soon as she said that, the rage building up in Alex subdue as if it never existed to begin with.
because, he understood how important spiritual power is.
if you go by a game reference, then spiritual power is MP.
the reason he had to give up on his right hand earlier, was because there is no spiritual power in this world.
“I see....in that case, i apologize. just try not to get agitated from now on.”
“I think that’s impossible with you around.”
“But wait...if that's the case, doesn’t that mean that you’ll die as soon as you run out?”
Acil cast her eyes downward.
And with that, it confirms my suspicion thought Alex.
and thus the road trip in this dead world begins.
its a race against time, will they clear the objective of this sick game, or will Acil perish first?
