All the questions in his head were now beginning to be answered. He finally found out the truth, knowing why the brother who loved him so much had the heart to kill him.

...| (❁❁) |...

“Late Day” is a book that tells of the apocalypse that occurred on earth.

Where humans are infected by a strange virus that can make them turn into the undead or can be called zombies.

The protagonist of the book is my brother, Fin Westerlock. I wouldn't be surprised if my brother was the protagonist. Isn't my brother perfect for the role?

Before I explain about the book, let's get acquainted first. My name is Zen, Zen Westerlock. The protagonist's younger brother, Fin Westerlock.

Compared to my brother's life, my life is arguably very far from his perfect life.

My intelligence is average or maybe better than a kid my age (?) What is clear when compared to my brother is very far away.

My face might be said to be handsome, but compared to my brother's face then the comparison was very far, like the sky with the earth.

A fortune? Don't ask me about it, my salary as a part-time waitress in a cafe is barely enough to finance my daily life.

Strength? In the last days I could not awaken any supernatural power at all. You could say I was an unprocessed trash.

For the reason above, my confidence is getting lower in front of my brother. If I could, I would very much like to go all the way from my brother's life so as not to become a burden again in his life.

But, big brother is big brother, he never thinks about the opinions or opinions that are out there and just stays focused on protecting me and taking care of me.

When I asked her the reason why she always protected me, surely her answer was always the same.

“Of course because you are my sister and you are my responsibility.”

Damn, every time he answered like that, surely my tears would always drip. Even in the last days with the emergence of the zombie virus outbreak, he still kept protecting me who was this useless piece of trash.

Although I was born with average abilities like the above, but there is one advantage of me. I have eyes that can see good fortune or bad luck on inanimate objects.

Because of my ability, I can help my brother. At least enough to make my brother's life better and better again.

But I'm not a fool either. If I leak this ability of mine, it is certain that many people will try to get me and take advantage of me.

Or worse, they'll make me an experimenter.

So I can only help my brother secretly without him and others knowing. All this went well.

Because of my silent help, big brother's life is getting better, better, and better. Even in the last days, my abilities are still very useful to him.

such as determining the place where the rare occurrence of zombie attacks that can be converted into a temporary place base.

Help him determine a good weapon without any loopholes or errors in the making.

It can even detect what foods can be eaten in the last days.

But my most useful ability is that I can detect the poison around me.

As I have explained, my brother is the leader of the safest base base in the last days, it is certain that many people want to overthrow him from power.

Many methods were used to harm him, one of them being poison.

I can detect poison because of my vision that can detect good fortune and bad luck in an object.

If the food and drink that my brother would eat had a dark purple mist around it, it would be certain that the food or drink contained poison.

Not only using food and drinks, even they can use alternatives such as goods, room fragrances or incense.

Although this ability is great, there are still shortcomings. I can't detect fate in living things, such as humans, animals, plants, even zombies that in fact are the undead.

If you ask what about the poison given through living things?

How did my brother survive?

The answer is simple, my brother is the strongest man after the end of the day. If the opponent is a living creature I think he will win easily.

Since my brother always escapes the poison given by the other party, they begin to feel suspicious and send spies to our side.

Stupidly I actually have high confidence in these spies.

How not? This spy is my brother's right hand, his comrade from the beginning of the doomsday came until he had the safest base at the moment.

I thought because he was my brother's right hand and best friend, he wouldn't hurt my brother. But in fact? He was a traitor.

Because of my confidence, I told him about this ability that I didn't even tell my brother.

Really naive, right? Damn, if I hadn't told him, I might still be breathing until now, not even my brother would have been hurt because of this.

If it wasn't for this old book, maybe I would still think it was my brother who killed me. The plan executed by the right hand of this traitor was well planned without loopholes!

After learning of my abilities, he rushed to inform the other party and began to devise a plan to kill me so as not to hinder them from monopolizing my brother.

That's right, the other party's goal was not to kill my brother, but rather to monopolize her and make her a rope puppet that could be moved at will by them and the final step to execute their plan was hindered by my existence.

Their plan started with the traitor telling me about the secret of the necklace my brother always wore.

He told me that in the necklace there was a strange ash that made my brother always complain of dizziness.

He was sure that the dizziness my brother was suffering from came from the strange ashes contained in his necklace.

If there is bad luck in it he told me to throw it as far as possible so that my brother is free from the dizziness he always suffered.

I do not know if he is a traitor according to his words.

I thought it wouldn't hurt to check it out, after all it was for my brother.

I began to execute my plan to take out my sister's necklace secretly. I run this plan at night.

I entered the room slowly so as not to make a sound. I could hear the sound of water screeching behind the bathroom indicating that my brother was in the bathroom.

Immediately I began to tear apart the desk drawer where the necklace was usually placed by my brother while bathing. It didn't take long, I immediately found the necklace. I picked it up secretly and left my brother's room as soon as possible.

My heart was pounding, a feeling of guilt began to envelop my heart at that moment.

How not? I knew once that this necklace was my brother's favorite necklace and now, I'm taking it without his knowledge.

Suddenly the words spoken by the traitor came back to my ears. I pat all my guilt then and there.

“This is all for the sake of brother,” muttered me and started opening the end of the necklace hook sister.

How surprised I was when I saw the ash drop after the end of the necklace hook I opened. No, not because of the large number of ashes but because of the dark purple dense fog that flew around the ashes.

The guilt in my heart was completely gone, all I thought about was how to remove the ashes. As panic flared at me, my eyes were glued to the glass filled with water on the table. Immediately I grabbed the glass of water and poured it over the ashes.

It seemed like my luck was so bad back then, right after I dissolved the ashes with water, the door of my room opened displaying the figure of my brother walking frantically towards me.

My body was glued when I saw it. At that time I explained briefly about my actions with faltering.

But it seems like all my words were not heard by him. He just stared blankly at the necklace I put on his desk and the gray puddle.

“You did it?” said brother with his head down.

“I-iya brother, ta-but it's all for the good of brother!”

“Huh? My kindness?”

I looked at my brother's face which seemed to show great anger as well as sadness (?) My body started to shake in fear.

Why is my sister looking at me like that? Did I do something wrong? Is it because of the necklace? If so then I will return it, after all my business is the ashes that are in the necklace, not his favorite necklace.

I did not have time to answer, my brother had pulled my hand tightly and took me to the detention room.

Along the way I have done my best to fight, but as you know the power between a person who has supernatural abilities and a person who does not have supernatural abilities is very different.

Moreover, my brother back then was a level 7 supernatural power user.

I can only give up when my brother throws me into the holding room. I have pleaded and explained to him a dozen times but have not been ignored by him at all.

“Think carefully what was your mistake!”

After saying that he turned away, leaving me in a dark and narrow holding room. A week has passed in the detention room. A whole week I've been thinking about my mistakes, but I still don't know where my fault lies.

Okay, I was wrong for taking her beloved necklace secretly. Thenwhat? Isn't that all? after getting rid of the ashes, I will return the necklace and apologize immediately.

Then what's wrong?! Or maybe it was because of the ashes? Huh! Of course it was impossible. After all why would my brother care about those ash grains?

Two weeks passed. From the first day I was in this detention room, you never saw me at all. Even my apology seemed to have been ignored or not conveyed to him.

Weeks passed, it did not feel like I had been locked in a detention room for three months. The longer my body gets weaker due to the lack of sunlight, even the food delivered to me starts to change.

What they should have sent me was 3 packets of biscuits and a glass of water now being half a piece of dry bread not worth eating and half dirty water.

If it wasn't for the supernatural energy around me, I might have been long over.

As my hope faded, the traitor's right hand appeared before me, making the fading hope shine again.

I wanted to ask where my brother was, but my throat was so dry that I could not make any sound at all. All I could do was look at him with eyes full of hope.

“I'm here, want to convey the decision of the leader.”

I heard him getting excited, but it was only a second before the right hand stabbed me with a knife. My eyes widened as I felt a piercing pain in my stomach.

“He said to kill you and dump your corpse into the zombie crowd as your punishment.” Continue the right hand with a faint smile on his face.

Upon hearing those words, my consciousness darkened and fell unconscious. When I opened my eyes again all I saw was this dark room.

For hundreds of years I have always asked myself. Wh why? Why did my brother kill me?

After a long wait, I finally found out what my mistake was. Because of this book, I finally knew that my actions back then were truly fatal to my brother's emotions.

The tears of sorrow I can't stand anymore. Immediately this white room was filled with a very heart-wrenching sobbing sound.

If time could be repeated, I wouldn't do such a stupid thing.

“I regret it.”

After saying that, the old book in front of me let out a bright white light and pulled me inside.
