บท 57: Eiji’s Surprising Decision
Standing in the air, Eiji didn't expect to encounter them.
Five people cornered at the edge of the electric fence by a bulldozer, with no way out.
Two men, two women, a little girl, plus a dog.
Eiji recognizes two men and one woman among the five: Tendo Akira, Kenichirou Ryuuzaki aka Kencho, and Mikazuki Shizuka.
This is the world of Zombie 100!
(Surprising. Turns out Azure can open a portal to the same world. This is not good news for me, as it relies on pure luck)
Eiji is not pleased to learn about this.
The principle behind Azure is to open a wormhole connecting to other universes. The problem is, he has no way to control its coordinates, so every time he uses Azure, the portal is completely random.
"..."
Unable to find a solution, he temporarily ignores this issue. So, he watches their conversation to understand what is happening.
Standing on the cutting edge are two men and a woman, plus a man sitting in the driver's seat.
Just by their appearance, anyone would identify them as antagonists.
"Impossible. Did you guys do this?" Kencho says in disbelief.
"Hehehe. That's right!"
A man named Higurashi answers with a wide grin on his face, looking completely unapologetic for causing this situation.
"Why did you do this?" Akira asks in shock.
Higurashi takes a drag of his cigarette and blows out smoke, speaking casually.
"Well, we're all going to become zombies someday. It would be a shame if I didn't do whatever I want, right?"
He takes a black notebook from his pocket and reads from it.
Akira is astonished to see the name of the notebook.
[100 Things I Want To Do Before Becoming A Zombie]
Not only him, but Kencho and Shizuka are also surprised to see the notebook, as its name is identical to Akira's.
On the other hand, Eiji has also seen Akira's notebook. Although the name of the notebook is the same, the color of the cover looks different.
(This event is not in Lin Fan's memory. So, the only plausible explanation is that Lin Fan died before finishing watching Zombie 100 to the end)
After checking Lin Fan's memory, Eiji finds out that Lin Fan only watched Zombie 100 until episode 10 because the anime went on hiatus for an unknown period.
"Huh? Did you also make a list? Hahaha... What a coincidence!"
Higurashi holding a pen in his hand, crosses out one item from the list.
"What should I do next?"
His eyes focus on item number 38, "turn everyone I hate into zombies."
"Yes, this one."
"Akira, I want to see you turn into a zombie with my own eyes."
Upon hearing Higurashi's insane words, Kencho steps forward in anger.
"You bastard! What did Akira ever do to you?"
"I've hated you since the first time we met at the university. You have no regard for this world, enjoying life every day. It disgusts me." Says Higurashi, looking down at Akira.
"That's your reason?"
This is the first time Shizuka has met a crazy person like Higurashi.
"This is our last summer vacation! What's wrong with enjoying it like everyone else?" Higurashi grins and says.
"You only live once. So, enjoy life as you wish. I understand because I do the same."
"Akira? What are you—"
Kencho looks at his good friend, not expecting him to agree with the psychopath like Higurashi. However, Akira interrupts him and speaks seriously.
"But... if you want to prioritize your freedom, you should also respect the freedom of others. Stealing the freedom from a village struggling to survive. Is that what you want to do?"
Akira stares at Higurashi without showing fear, only harboring suppressed anger in his eyes.
"I really don't understand what you're saying."
Seeing that look, Higurashi squints his eyes in annoyance.
"My wish list and your wish list are not the same."
Taking his notebook from his clothes, Akira starts writing.
"I still haven't repaid my parents who raised me. If I have to live with regret for not repaying my parents' kindness, I'd rather be eaten by zombies!"
He shows the content of the notebook to Higurashi and the others on the bulldozer.
Item number 38, "devoted my parents."
"Good! That's what I want to hear! This will be a competition between you and me to see who completes their list first. Hahahaha...."
Higurashi laughs hysterically.
"Unfortunately, you don't have a chance."
A third-party voice suddenly sounds, followed by the sound of the wind.
Instantly, the hands and feet of the people on the bulldozer have been severed.
"Eh?"
Higurashi and the others still don't understand the situation.
"Aaaaaa!!! My hand! What is this! Damn it!"
The incredible pain makes Higurashi scream hysterically, with tears and mucus flowing.
Not only him, but three other companions are also in the same condition. Their hands and feet have been mutilated.
"That voice... Kamiki-kun?! Where are you?"
Shizuka looks left and right, trying to find Eiji.
Since she saw him open a portal and disappear, she has never been able to forget that scene. Shizuka has always wanted to meet him again and ask many questions.
As a person who believes in science, what she saw that day has overturned her view of the world.
"Kamiki? Shizuka-san, do you mean Kamiki Eiji?"
Although briefly, Akira also remembers Eiji because of his beautiful eyes.
"Oi, look up!"
Kencho shouts while pointing to the sky.
Shizuka and the others look up and see a young man holding a katana, standing in the air as if walking down step by step.
"Long time no see, everyone."
"Kamiki-kun, there's a zombie behind you!"
Seeing zombies approaching due to Higurashi and the others' screams, Shizuka reminds him.
Eiji turns around and swings the katana horizontally. Then, all the zombies in his sight have their heads floating in the air before falling to the ground with headless bodies.
Seeing him exterminate the zombie horde with just one strike, everyone is stunned.
"Wow, are you a samurai desu~!"
The most enthusiastic person is a girl with a ponytail, large breasts, and wearing samurai-like armor.
Her name is Beatrix Amerhauser, a Japanese culture maniac.
"..."
"Tendo Akira, Ryuuzaki Kenichirou, Mikazuki Shizuka. Evacuate the village residents to another place. Let me handle all the zombies in the village." Says Eiji calmly.
"No, that's too dangerous, Kamiki. There are too many zombies." Akira tries to persuade him to cancel his reckless action.
"Don't misunderstand, Tendo Akira. I'm helping this village not out of justice but because of your words earlier. Since you don't want to follow my words, forget it."
Eiji sheaths his katana, turns around, and prepares to leave.
"Wait, Kamiki-kun! We'll do as you say, please don't go."
"Fine."
"Come on, Akira-kun. Evacuate everyone as quickly as possible."
Shizuka tells Akira, who is still hesitant.
"But Kamiki—"
"He'll be fine. On the contrary, we should worry about ourselves. Don't you want to save all the village residents?"
"That's true. Kamiki, don't push yourself; if it's too dangerous, you can retreat—"
Before Akira finishes his sentence, he and the others see Eiji darting away at a speed invisible to the naked eye.
If not for the zombies falling in his path, they would have thought it was an illusion.
"Who is that guy, actually..."
Kencho rubs his eyes, making sure he's not dreaming.
"We'll find out later; our top priority is to evacuate." Says Shizuka.
"What about them?"
Akira points to Higurashi and his companions.
"Let it be. Besides, they can't do anything anymore."
Everyone agrees with Shizuka's words. So, they hurry to evacuate the village residents.
