"Ughh! I'm gonna die! Die!"
After drinking a sip of the potion and putting down his glass, Jay immediately rolled around on the ground with a hysterical expression.
Seeing that, the corner of Ark's lips twitched. He did not think that his best friend was too dramatic.
"Oh? Turns out I'm still alive. It feels ... not that bad?"
Jay sat down and stroked his chin.
"While there is no sugar or sweetener, why does it taste so sweet? From zombies? Then, this slightly bitter and refreshing taste ... is a bit like mint leaves?"
Seeing Jay acting like a dying man and talking like a food commentator, Ark drank the potion in silence. He did not want to interfere with that person at all, even choosing to slightly stay away from him!
"Hey! Why are you moving away, Ark? You don't blame me, do you? After all, who would have thought that this kind of 'strange and somewhat viscous liquid' would taste rather good?"
"Your talking makes it ambiguous, you idiot!"
Ark immediately said with a grim face. He really wanted to beat up his friend. But without the young man knowing, the presence of Jay makes the day a bit relaxed. Not as depressed as his previous life where he could trust no one, fighting on his own frontline as a lonely wolf without a herd!
"After drinking this, what should we do now, Ark?"
"Sleep."
"Eh?"
"I told you, sleep and save your strength."
Following Ark's orders, they ended up going to bed a few hours until the sun was about to set.
After waking up, Ark prepared to make another potion with fire that was still ignited earlier. Seeing that Jay had woken up, he did not comment much. Especially when looking at the man standing in his place with a dumbfounded expression.
"I'm really getting stronger?"
"At least 10% stronger than before."
"Huh?! You even counted the exact data, Ark? You made it again? What if I just make and drink it all?"
"Are you stupid?"
"..."
Hearing Ark's question, Jay fell silent. Instead of being politely reciprocated, he was actually immediately branded as a fool by his best friend.
"Drugs like this obviously have side effects if you take too much of it. Just in case, it is better to drink two servings each day.
When the sun goes down and after sunrise. For now, consider it a try. Because it works, we'll do it on schedule."
"I don't really understand, but okay. I'm sure you won't poison me."
Jay pointed at himself with a confident smile.
"Yes, yes, yes ... That's what a man who rolled on the floor thought he was dying a few hours ago."
Ark's speech instantly made Jay's movements stiff. Looking towards Ark who was concocting another potion, the man gave an awkward smile.
Ignoring Jay, Ark who finished making the potion sat back down casually.
"After drinking, let's go around to start practicing as well as looking for other foods."
"Other food?"
"Yes. Fruit or meat of another animal."
"Another beast ..." murmured Jay.
Given the many fist-sized sparrows, the man became nervous. Just then, Ark's voice sounded.
"You can calm down. They won't change that fast."
"How do you know? Eh?! Why are you sure they'll change?"
"Because the world has also changed."
Ark replied briefly. Putting a glass of potion in front of Jay, the young man again said.
"Drink before it gets too cold and hard to swallow."
"Errn ..."
Seeing the suspicious green liquid with bubbles on it, Jay was still unfamiliar. However, inevitably he still forced himself to drink. Anyway ...
Although it looked disgusting, it was quite tasty and beneficial to him!
"really! Why do you have an idea like this, Ark! I thought you were inspired by that stinky tofu dish!
It smells so unpleasant, it looks ordinary, but it's actually delicious!
Holy bullshit! Why in this world so many people have such strange ideas!"
Swallowing the potion until the last drop, a complicated expression on his face.
"..."
Ark was silent. After a while, the young man said.
"Good!"
Hearing Ark's words, Jay immediately got ready. After that, they also left.
***
On the streets of elite housing.
"Nurp ..."
Jay suddenly took a deep breath.
"What's wrong?"
"Is this really apocalypse, Ark?"
Jay asked with a doubtful expression.
"You mean???"
Ark tilted his head with a confused expression.
"I mean, wasn't it when apocalypse, we were supposed to save the prettiest girl on campus or the office? They'll thank you and then depend on us, and then .. uhuk! uhuk!
You must know what I mean, Ark."
"..."
Hearing that, the corner of Ark's lips twitched. He did not expect that his friend still had such wild fantasies when he did not have the real ability to survive on his own.
"Hey, Jay."
"Yes?"
"I remind. This is a cruel world, so don't equate it with dating sim games! What do you think apocalypse is?
Going here and there to pick up girls? Spend the night with all your heart? Life becomes more colorful?"
"Eh? No?"
Seeing the stunned Jay, Ark stumbled but managed to keep his balance so as not to fall.
"Really, I was confused whether saving you was the right or wrong choice."
Ark took a long breath.
"Look Ark, someone planted a carrot next to the house! There are chili peppers and tomatoes too!"
"..."
Looking at Jay who since when had ignored him and left, Ark lost his words.
"Look at that, Ark. Big, beautiful, soft, juicy...really tempting."
"Stop talking as if you're staring at something else!"
Ark massaged his forehead with a depressed expression.
After which, he suddenly ran straight towards Jay. The young man viciously kicked Jay who was crouching to the point of rolling around on the ground several times.
"What are you doing, man? If there is a problem—"
Jay stood up while patting the dust on his body. But when he looked at Ark, he fell silent.
Crat!
Blood splashed. A headless body fell into the street. A monstrous zombie head rolled on the ground, staring at Jay with two eyes wide open.
"How can I not feel it?"
"This is not a small area where it is easy to defend. In a vast area with complex terrain, such a thing was indeed possible."
"In other words ..."
Jay said in a nervous tone. Ark continued on.
"Pull your weapon and get ready for battle!"
Hearing Ark's command, Jay immediately took out a round shield on his back and pulled out his sword.
Meanwhile, Ark gripped tightly the spear in his hand. Moments later, it appeared that dozens of zombies had appeared from various angles ... instantly surrounded the two of them!
Observing towards the zombies, Ark took the time to glance towards Jay while saying.
"Although it's a dozen and not as many as before, we're fighting in a large area. So make sure ..."
Ark's eyes flashed coldly.
"Don't act passive! Finish them off before they finish you off!"
