Bronze WINNER of WPC#322: Male Lead: Zombie Invasion

Takemi Kazuichi might very well be the luckiest and unluckiest person in the world. He was an orphan, and he was severely bullied in school. Because of that, he became a hikikomori, a shut-in. When he turned sixteen, he was adopted by a rich couple who loved him as if he was their own son. Unfortunately, they died in a plane crash, and Kazuichi never overcame his bad habits of being a shut-in, largely because of his preying relatives.

Fast forward to four years later, Takemi Kazuichi still stayed in the house left by his late parents. He never bothered going to work or going out to socialize with people. For the lack of a better term, he was a rich hikikomori. He never even bothered to check the news or log in on any social media. All he did was live his life in solitude, devoid of any human interaction.

One day, as he came out of the shower, he heard a strange thumping sound by the doorway. "That's weird, I didn't order any delivery today." He told himself before absent-mindedly opening the door.

And what stared back didn't resemble a human at all. It was a zombie— or so that's what the first thing that came into Kazuichi's mind. Unbeknownst to him, the world had drastically changed, and he was the last one to know.

Shut-In Of The 'Dead'

Last year was filled with ups and downs certainly in my life more than anything. I got into some trouble, worries, sicknesses, ups, and downs in terms of work, graduated high school (finally) and now the finals are coming up and my first sem for college is almost over. A lot has happened in just a year and honestly, I couldn't help but think that I wouldn't be able to keep up with everything that's going on.


But I kept on pushing... and somehow, I survived another year just like all of you dear readers did. It's not much but it's honest work, and even if we think that we didn't accomplish a lot last year, I could say for certain that we did finish it alive and still kicking. That, in and of itself is already an achievement.


With that said, I look forward to writing even more chapters for this novel while polishing my writing skills. Recently, there's been changes in webnovel which made it harder to get monetization. While it did impact my motivation, it did bring me back to the start when I was just an up-and-coming writer with no fanbase at all. I remembered my initial goal of writing out of enjoyment and it kept me pushing forward. 


You might wonder why I'm not uploading that much on my other novels, but that's because life has gotten so much busier. I'll strive to upload more chapters though. My novel I Bit Everyone And Became The Strongest Zombie Cultivator is almost finished but I've been putting it off since I was too busy. There's also my other novel named  A Book Can't Be Judged By The Cover and it's close to being finished as well. All I could say is please look forward to it. I'm going to finish it as soon as I can! 


My third ongoing novel, Shut-In Of The Dead will have more regular updates once I fully assimilated with my life as a college student. Quite frankly, I'm trying so hard to review my major subjects but nothing seemed to sink in. Once I get the basics done and I get the free time, I'm going to release chapters regularly. 


Now that that's out of the way, I just want to express my thanks to everyone who supported me and is still supporting me even now. I can't believe that ten thousand people have actually subscribed to My System: An Evolved Computer I Made With My Unique Ability. Honestly, I didn't think that this novel would reach this far. 


After all, I only ever wrote it for my enjoyment. I wanted to read a superpower novel I wrote for myself and have my main character live the dream. It was fun, and even though a year had passed, I'm still enjoying writing this novel... and I still enjoy writing in general. 


Thank you so much, everyone! I hope you all have a great read ahead. And as always, I look forward to your reviews and comments. Don't hesitate to leave them since I'll reply as soon as I can from now on.
