Chapter Title: The Prepared Survivor
-----------------------------------------------------------------
“That pigeon just keeps following me.”
Crunch, crunch.
Staring at the monitor on her drone controller, Lee Ah-rin picked up a potato chip from the bag beside her and popped it into her mouth.
A dark room.
But a camping lantern cast a soft glow throughout the space.
The room was littered with all sorts of electronic gadgets, a telescope, a fire starter, solid fuel tablets, and more.
“Sigh… If I finish these off, what am I gonna eat next?”
Lee Ah-rin let out a sigh as she eyed the few remaining bags of chips.
But her sigh had nothing to do with worries about food supplies.
“I should’ve stocked up on more snacks if I knew this was coming…”
The chair she was slouched back in, leaning lazily.
Behind it towered stacks upon stacks of unopened canned goods.
‘If I’d known zombies were actually gonna happen… I would’ve hoarded way more stuff.’
She was what they called one of the “prepared.”
Even in a peaceful world, she was a survivor who had readied herself for the off-chance apocalypse.
Her rooftop had solar panels installed from the day she moved in.
Plenty of backup batteries, and even an emergency water purification system—though the filters had their limits.
Thanks to all that, even months into the zombie outbreak, Lee Ah-rin’s life hadn’t changed much from before the pandemic.
‘I hardly ever left the house to begin with.’
She was what people called a total shut-in.
The youngest daughter born to a famous politician father and a mother who was climbing the ranks as a cosmetics CEO.
But her personality, which made it hard to get along with others, ended up causing issues even at home.
They’d given their problem-child daughter the house and money she wanted, then basically kicked her out.
And so, she’d spent a leisurely year holed up as a total recluse.
Then one day, the zombie outbreak hit out of nowhere.
Thanks to the survival gear and emergency rations she’d collected as a hobby, Lee Ah-rin managed to survive.
Beep, beep.
[It’s fully ripened~]
After running her usual routine of scouting outside with the drone, Lee Ah-rin picked up her handheld game console and started playing again.
In the game, a hunter wielding a massive sword sat roasting meat.
‘If I run out of food, maybe I’ll have to go hunting.’
She had a slingshot and compound bow at home for self-defense.
Of course, she didn’t have much ammo or arrows left, and she didn’t even know how to use them properly.
She was just enjoying this brief comfort while bracing for an uncertain future.
Turning her eyes away from the food that would eventually run out, she focused on the game.
With no internet anymore, electronic entertainment was all she had.
‘I’m not cut out to be the protagonist anyway.’
She never even considered using her ample resources to save other survivors or scout out safe zones.
‘That’s the kind of thing for protagonists.’
Objectively speaking, Lee Ah-rin knew she wasn’t the type to save or lead anyone.
She figured supporting someone capable from the sidelines would be plenty for her.
She’d help out just enough and tag along comfortably while the zombie-story protagonist saved the world.
But the protagonist she was waiting for never showed up.
[Meow~]
“Ah, I missed the last cart…”
Lost in idle thoughts, Lee Ah-rin ended up losing the game.
Seeing her defeat mirrored her own failed future in survival, she lost all interest and turned off the console.
“…Where’s that savior when you need him?”
The kind who pulled off impossible feats without batting an eye.
The zombie-story protagonist who achieved the unthinkable and led survivors to victory.
Lee Ah-rin just wanted to find someone like that fast, so she could live her days worry-free.
. . .
‘Playing games so calmly in a situation like this?’
I’d chased a drone flying around during the zombie outbreak and ended up at a fancy mansion, where I found a surviving girl.
About my age?
‘…Whoa, and check out that room.’
It was a total mess.
Not quite a trash heap, but crammed full of random tools, electronics, and gadgets.
A stark contrast to Yoo Ha-yeon’s pristine room that I’d just visited.
Still.
In that cluttered chaos, a girl in dolphin-print pants and a white tank top looked seriously hot.
It was definitely a pigeon, but my dick was throbbing anyway.
‘And those tits… that face. Top-tier.’
Perched on a nearby power line, I closely observed the girl inside.
A face that screamed zero motivation.
She landed the drone on the roof, then casually fired up her game.
Even in this zombie apocalypse with nothing to do, her attitude was way too laid-back.
‘Has she given up on life?’
Sure, her room was stocked with food, but normally people trembled like Yoo Ha-yeon.
It felt like that room was completely cut off from the zombie world outside.
‘Anyway, I’ll swing by her place later.’
From the looks of the solar panels and the state of the house, she’d be fine for a while.
I memorized the location first, then planned to check back later depending on the situation.
If she was a virgin, she’d be precious growth EXP for me.
Plus, judging by her preps, she seemed like she’d be useful in this zombie mess.
With that, I took to the skies again and headed back to the department store.
[Ending possession of entity ‘Pigeon’.]
I set the pigeon down on the department store terrace and deactivated the skill.
“Oh, you’re awake?”
When I opened my eyes, Yoo Ha-yeon was gazing up at me from my arms.
She’d definitely been asleep before the possession.
“Since when have you been cuddling up to me?”
“You looked cold sleeping, mister… Hehe, about 10 minutes ago.”
Apparently, possession put my main body to sleep.
And while I was out, Yoo Ha-yeon had slipped into my arms, hugging my waist tight.
“Good girl. Here’s your reward. Pants off.”
“……Okay.”
At my words, Yoo Ha-yeon blushed but obediently stripped off her bottoms.
After that, I pounded away relentlessly at her still-pale pussy, then dumped another load inside.
“…Haaah♥”
I kneaded the ass of Yoo Ha-yeon, who straddled me and convulsed in climax, planted a kiss on her lips, then got out of bed.
‘Second time today, and my lust isn’t going down at all.’
I’d seen that meme about going four rounds with Hye-jeong and thought it was bullshit.
But with Yoo Ha-yeon, I could probably go six or seven.
‘…Or maybe I’ve changed a bit?’
Come to think of it, I’d become a necromancer, taken Yoo Ha-yeon’s virginity, and grown stronger.
In a normal game, leveling up would boost stamina too.
‘But with no stats visible, who knows.’
“Mmm… Slurp, sluuuurp.”
After her orgasm, Yoo Ha-yeon immediately took my cock in her mouth to clean it up.
I patted her head, pleased she was following her training so well.
‘Man, this is the best.’
I could fuck a girl like this whenever I wanted and creampie her without a care.
Something I couldn’t have dreamed of before.
‘My greed’s growing by the minute.’
Humans were like that—standing made you want to sit, sitting made you want to lie down.
Having turned Yoo Ha-yeon into mine with my powers, other women naturally caught my eye.
Especially that survivor from just now, or Ryu Da-hee from the dorms.
I wanted to ravage their slutty tits at will.
‘Soon.’
As I powered up, I’d make them pant under my cock eventually.
Devouring virgins to grow my abilities.
Turning this department store into my personal paradise.
And giving Captain Kang a nice middle finger along the way.
That was my plan right now.
“Alright, time to get to work.”
“Huh? Where are you going?”
“Got some stuff to do. You rest. Or is there anything you need?”
“I-I wanna help too!”
As I threw on my clothes piece by piece, Yoo Ha-yeon hurriedly dressed herself.
“It’s fine. You’d just be in danger and couldn’t help anyway.”
“…But.”
“More importantly, tell me what you need. I’ll get anything.”
“Anything?”
Yoo Ha-yeon tilted her head.
Probably pondering the limits of “anything.” The scope was pretty broad.
Of course, a plane or yacht would be tricky.
But pretty much everything else was doable.
Unclaimed stuff was everywhere outside.
I didn’t really need to fetch stuff like this for her, but she’d been shaking her hips so eagerly for me, so I wanted to spoil her.
Plus, seeing that other survivor chilling with games made me think Yoo Ha-yeon might be bored.
“…Um, …then.”
After hesitating a bit, Yoo Ha-yeon scribbled something on a nearby notepad and handed it to me.
“Cosmetics?”
“I-It’s fine if that’s too hard!”
“No, it’s not hard. …But seriously, cosmetics? In this situation?”
It was a genuine question.
No matter that she was a young girl, asking for makeup over food or clothes in a survival scenario?
At my question, Yoo Ha-yeon bowed her head, embarrassed by her own request.
“Sorry… I just want to look pretty for you…”
“What, that’s all?”
I couldn’t help but chuckle.
She must’ve been pretty self-conscious about how she looked to me.
Her old one-room stuff had included makeup, after all.
Still, wanting to look cute for me felt damn good from my side.
“Alright, I’ll be back.”
“Be careful!”
Yoo Ha-yeon, still in her panties, waved back at me as I waved goodbye.
‘Fuck, she’s so hot. Gotta fuck her again when I get back.’
. . .
What I had to do now.
Clear the survival quest that had been my goal since my first scouting run.
[Corpses 1/20]
Clearing the growth quest had unlocked my skill window and let me use skills.
As a result, I got a pigeon zombie that was way more versatile than the machine drone.
‘So what’ll the survival quest give me?’
Anticipation bubbled up.
Probably something base-related, like the first quest for settling a base.
I’d only know for sure once I cleared it.
Ding.
[Corpses 19/20]
“Nice, just one left.”
I’d dragged over a few external zombies on the way back with Yoo Ha-yeon and fed them to the crystal in B1.
The quest progress filled up fast.
“You’re the last one.”
I positioned the commemorative final zombie in front of the crystal.
-Uuuugh….
The zombie reacted to the crystal, dissolving into light particles and getting absorbed.
Ding.
[Corpses 20/20]
“Done! Cleared!”
I immediately hit the new [Complete] button next to the quest to finish it.
Ding.
[You have cleared Survival Quest 2. Base level increased.]
[Base LV. 2
Base Location: S Department Store B1]
Quest clear messages popped up one after another.
But I brushed them aside quickly and skipped ahead.
This wasn’t what I wanted.
And soon, an intriguing message appeared.
[Base level increased. You may now acquire a base skill. Select one.]
[1. Impenetrable]
[2. Recycling]
[3. Self-Repair]
“Skills dropped!”
I let out a cheer at the message in front of me.
