Asami has been âsuccesfullyâ bitten by a zombie, according to keikaku, next would be getting her to drink his blood subconsciously and then âcoincidentallyâ find the blood to be of a antiserum against the zombie virus.
Thatâs why Feng Yu Chen canât let her die. If itâs Takashi and the others, the chance of them actually getting bitten by zombies are very small but there is always a small chance that all the preparations in the world canât eliminate. And if someone did get bit, they would most likely be executed on the spot, how will he âcoincidentallyâ give someone his blood and then âaccidentallyâ be able to show that his blood carries anti viral properties?
âI canât, I wonât do it, youâre still alive so I canât just kill you like this. Letâs go find Marikawa the school nurse, sheâs the one that treated the old gramps. Her skills are very good, she can definitely cure you.â
He shook his head at her request.
âcough, you⌠you shouldnât be hesitating like this, I⌠am already done for, soon I will turn into one of them. You mustnât be like this, you should be able to do it with that attitude of yours. Ne, come on, kill me, donât you hate me before?â
Asami grabbed his hands.
Time to let the acting skills shineâŚ
He groaned.
âNo, no I canât⌠I have never despised you before, thatâs⌠thatâs because there used to be one just like you, filled with a sense of justice, the same heroics, the same everything. But then, she.. in the end she⌠Now whenever I look at you all I can see is her and I was afraid. Thatâs why I didnât want to her figure, the scars of my past!
And now! How do I expect me to do it. Youâre asking me to see you die just like how she died befor eme. I was a hot blooded fellow filled with justice until that time. That event has shown me that rationality needs to be preserved some of the time!
I will definitely save you. Absolutely. Get up, letâs go find them and let Marikawa treat your wound. Everything will be alright, yes, yes, it will definitely turn out alright!â
While spouting those lines he picked her up and ran. He âaccidentallyâ cut himself with the Xuan Yuan sword and some blood got into her mouth âby luckââŚ
âYouâŚâ
Asami didnât what to say. Looking at his haste and the wound on his arm, she guessed that he must be really driven up the walls.
Sheâs starting to understand why Feng Yu Chen was so confrontational when he met her for the first time. Itâs not because he despise her but because the act of seeing her alone brings back painful memories of that timeâŚ
He stayed to save Asami because he canât forget the past. How he wasnât able to save âherâ. Itâs clear to her that he and her arenât that much different, the painful memories has forced him to become more rationalâŚ
Asami figured out why his behaviour became erratic and why his eyes look so helpless. Itâs because âsheâ died and he donât want to see her die and do nothing about it. Even if she cannot be saved, he would still hold on to that faint hope?
âAlthough this might be very shocking for you but please kill me. As for me you see, hehe, I think have taken a fancy to you. If I can die in the hands of someone I like might not be so bad, soâŚâ
Asami smiled.
âNo, No way, you will not die, you canât die. Donât say anything, or else you wonât have strength anymore.â
Feng Yu Chen shouted while running. Drops of tears started flowing down as his body turned ran like heâs turned into a gust of windâŚ
Slowly, Asami began to feel something off, why hasnât she turned into a zombie? She remembers faintly that the ones who are bitten will vomit large volumes of blood before turning into a zombie, why hasnât she turn yet?
Then she tried recalling, it.. it has to be the blood from his arm! Thatâs right, his blood made the intense sensation from before disappear, could it be!!
âStop, stop! I think Iâm alright, itâs your blood. This might be preposterous but I think itâs your blood. Look at me, Iâm fine after more than 10 minutes, Iâm still pretty normalâŚâ
Asami blushed and grabbed him by his hand apparently very moved.
He stopped in a daze and he looked at her while cheerfully continuing.
âYouâre alright? Youâre alright! This is great, uuuu, this is too great, just magnificentâŚâ
She responded while feeling inconceivable as well.
âThis might be a fateful encounter, you didnât get to save âherâ but you saved me. Maybe itâs god giving you a second chance and giving me happiness. Thatâs right, your blood can neutralize zombie virus. This is great, this is really greatâŚ.â
âIs that true? It canât be? Impossible, how can any human have any ability like this?â
Feng Yu Chen gazed at his bleeding arm still unconvinced.
Asami shook her head and smiled.
âItâs true, youâre special, youâre a unique existence, the blood coursing through you must have some kind of compound and this thing turns out to be antibody to the zombie virus, with this antibodies the world can be saved. Thatâs correct, you can save the whole of humanity, the last hope of humanity is you!â
âIs that real? Youâre not shitting me right?â
He still used a doubtful tone.
âIt is real, anyone that has a brain can see that. Look at me, when your blood entered my mouth, my body started to stabilize and although I didnât notice it before but it has now been tens of minute and yet there is no sign of zombification. What do you think? This is magnificent,, thank god!â
Asami gaze at him in a pious manner, as if sheâs convinced that heâs the messiah.
âReally? That is good, too goodâŚâ
He chirped excitedly. Then he fell down sitting on the ground feeling weakness in his body.
