'Who would have thought I would meet Lia Amerston at a remote bookstore like this?' inner Zen slowly while paying close attention to the condition of the woman in front of him.
...| (❁❁) |...
"So, what are you going to do to him?" asked Max quietly while glancing briefly at the woman who was fainting or sleeping with a shelf as her backrest.
"What else am I going to do?" asked Zen slowly and then gave a stack of books in his left hand to Max.
"Bring this out, let's go" said Zen who got a light glare from Max.
"Don't bring it?" ask Max who was replied with a soft belt by Zen.
"You want to take him?" tanya Zen who was replied with a sledgehammer also by Max.
"No, he must be heavy. Added he is useful but not very useful," said Max who was replied by a slow nod by Zen.
"That's you know, so don't ask any more and quickly get out of here before he really wakes up," Zen said which made Max sigh slowly.
"Ah, I forgot if I wanted to pick up the book I read earlier, wait a minute and I will pick it up immediately," Max said, making Zen cluck slowly.
"Hurry up and if you find a chemistry book or something, bring it for me" said Zen, who made Max snort in annoyance.
"Why didn't you bring it before you came to me?" max grumbled but still did as Zen commanded.
"I forgot," replied Zen flatly.
'Well, instead of completely forgetting the hell, I did leave some but I forgot to take it because my hand was full of novels and storybooks ordered by the two children,' inner Zen and of course not expressing it to Max.
'Plus, why is he here?' zen asked softly as he looked back at Lia who seemed to have fainted from exhaustion there.
'Pretty good, 'cause he can survive alone among the thousands of zombies out there, ' Inner Zen.
"Think of why he could be here?" max asked right behind Zen abruptly which made Zen slightly jerk in surprise.
"Yeah! Since when have you been there?" zen asked in annoyance.
"A few minutes ago?" said Max indifferently.
"You're not the one who broke this chemistry book in the corner of the room?" max asked as he raised his left hand that was filled with piles of chemistry books.
"Yep, as expected of my personal assistant," said Zen who was met with a frown of disgust from Max.
"Stop it, it's disgusting" Max said honestly.
"Added, since when did I become your assistant? I don't get paid for this" Max continued.
"Then why are you still following me to this point and even doing what I ordered?" asked Zen curiously.
"Because it's interesting? Besides, while I can still survive with you and your party members, why not?" asked Max who was replied with a slow snort from Zen.
"It doesn't answer my question at all" Zen said.
"I mean you can survive on your own without having to come with me," continued Zen who made Max silent for a moment.
"Hmm, why? I don't know for sure either, my intuition is just saying if I should follow you" Max replied.
"You could die if you just rely on your intuition" Zen said slowly.
"But until now I'm alive, meaning my intuition is right up to this point" Max said.
"Well, whatever it is, with me here, you get extra power in your party" said Max, who was nodding to agree by Zen.
"Although I hate to admit it, but what you say is true" said Zen.
"But why are you following my orders?" asked Zen who was replied with a frown on Max's forehead.
"Which eyes do you see if I obey your orders? Do you not reflect if you also obey my orders?" ask Max who makes Zen remember the statement Max.
"Well, that's also true, meaning we're partners?" zen asked uncertainly.
"What have you been thinking of me for so long if not a partner?" ask Max sarcastically.
"My ashes?" said Zen who was rewarded with a deadly look from Max.
"Pftt, kidding, why are you so serious?" zen asked while holding back his laughter that wanted to break.
"You really want me to hit him?" max asked who made Zen laugh.
"Just kidding, after all as a form of reply because you always think of me babu during my school," said Zen.
"Let's go away from the si-"
"Ah, I forgot if there was anyone other than the two of us," said Zen then glanced back at Lia who had now opened her eyes.
"You going now?" max asked when he realized that the woman had not fully realized.
"Wait a minute, there's something I want to make sure for a minute" Zen said, which made Max look at him in silence.
"Where...?" muttered Lia quietly while feeling if all her body muscles felt stiff even more so her two legs.
"Conscious?" zen asked which made Lia slightly flinched in surprise.
"Who?!" lia asked and stared in disbelief as she saw two strangers in her memory.
"You were the demon man of that time!" lia said with hate in her eyes.
"He calls you the devil" Max said with an amused smile on his face.
"You are also called a demon by him," Zen replied flatly then turned his body around.
"Didn't you want to be sure of something beforehand?" max asked in surprise when he saw Zen turning around just like that after hearing Lia's words.
"There's no need to make sure he's back, he's still not changed and I don't need anyone I can't manage" Zen said, replying with a brief nod by Max.
"You're right, he's hard to manage" Max said as he looked at the radiance of hatred emitted by his eyes.
'I'm not stupid enough to put a dangerous variable just to have an advantage that can be obtained in other ways, ' Inner Zen.
"Let's go, Max," said Zen and then walk first followed by Max.
"Hopefully we can meet again and I hope that when we meet, you'll be a little more manageable. Well, that's even if you're still alive" Max said with a smile in his eyes and turned away after Zen who was outside the store.
"Damn it!" maki Lia was annoyed while clenching her hands in annoyance.
"Look, I will definitely kill those two demon-hearted humans!" lia said with great hatred in her eyes.
...----------------...
"Hey, is he really useful?" ask Max curiously.
"Who do you mean? Lia?" tanya Zen who was nod by Max.
"Well, whoever the name is, why did you come up like that only for women who were not very useful?" asked Max back who made Zen speechless.
"He is useless, but the relationship he has is not kidding," said Zen who made Max look at him with no understanding.
"Relations? Is there still an advantage to building relationships in a broken world like this?" ask Max.
"Of course, there are, until whenever the relationship is really used even though the world has been destroyed," replied Zen who made Max speechless.
'If I can bring him in then I will have easy access to interact with one of the base leaders who is under the leadership of the elder brother, the hunter.' batin Zen while remembering the name of the hunter who has the same clan as the woman earlier.
'Well, who would have thought that the fair-minded woman was the daughter of the hunter?' zen continued in his mind.
"It's a pity that he can't be set up properly, if he's more obedient just a little bit, I might take him," murmured Zen who was still heard by Max.
"He's too dangerous if you can't control him, plus he seems to have a high level of hatred for both of us" said Max, who Zen nods.
"Therefore I did not bring him even if I wanted to" said Zen.
"What did you say to him, by the way?" zen asked which made Max frown for a moment before answering him.
"Ah, earlier? Just an ordinary motivational sentence so that he can survive longer?" max answered with a faint smile on his face.
"You know, your face can't be trusted at all" said Zen, who made Max laugh.
"Let's forget about it, where are we going now?" max asked who made Zen think about it slowly.
"Hey, can you cook?" asked Zen who was very deviated from Max's question earlier.
"Of course I can, although I'm not very good but at least my food is quite good, why?" ask Max.
"Good then, let's have some meat tonight!" zen said that made Max look at him strangely.
'Which place still has clean meat at the end of a chaotic world like this?' inner Max strangely but still silent and follow the direction given by Zen to drive his car to the place that Zen wants to go.
