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'

The North Yamanashi Stronghold was founded a week or so after the outbreak. Since then, it never experienced an attack, and it has grown stronger by the day. Even now, no one dared cross the North Yamanashi Stronghold due to how formidable it was.


However, right now they were at their most vulnerable. Not only did the number of Hybrids present were reduced, but their stronghold leader was nowhere to be found as well.


If anyone wanted to take over the North Yamanashi Stronghold, now was the most opportune moment to do so. And somehow, that's exactly what happened.


The first sign of the invasion was seen by the patrol as they were unknowingly attacked by a group of Hybrids that instantly eliminated them from this lifetime. One of them escaped, but the Hybrids were quick enough to catch up to him and deliver a swift death before he could warn the others.
