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 husband stepped backward, baring his fangs at the bulky man who walked slowly towards him. He had no idea whether the man was another enemy or not.

Whichever the case, he didn't want to let his guard down since his family's lives were on the line here.

He was already exhausted enough as it was, but his wife and daughter were right behind him. There was no way he would allow the threat to approach them so carelessly like that.

"Who are you? What do you want?" The husband gritted his feet, trying to intimidate the Bulwark in front of him.

Although he was well aware that he was severely advantaged against a Bulwark, it should be mentioned that he was already exhausted after that fight against the Hound.

Of course, there's still a minuscule chance of winning, but after that... what then? Even if he won, he wouldn't be able to defend his wife and daughter against oncoming threats.
