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'

Unlike Shig who was plain-looking, the younger sister seemed to be a different breed of human with her blond hair and blue eyes. Her face wasn't that mature yet and her features felt more childish compared to Arisu who had the same palette.


Kazuichi and his party members immediately assumed that she was a foreigner or something, but they didn't ask any of that at all. Instead, the four of them could be seen staring at the girl and then glancing over at Shig who was busy scooping up bowls of rice for everyone.


Meanwhile, the younger sister stayed still on the bed where she was lying down. She turned around and saw Kazuichi. For some odd reason, he found his presence oddly familiar but she couldn't wrap her fingers around it. Somehow, she also had no idea whether it was her human self or her Hybrid self which was reacting to Kazuichi. Even then, she instantly felt a connection and it made her a bit curious as to who Kazuichi was.
