Chapter 4: A peculiar skill

'Now let's put our first thing in the inventory permanently and that is a water bottle.' said Anik. First, he took out a new water bottle from the supplies box held it and unsealed the cap.

'Open Inventory'said Anik and suddenly a light blue transparent panel appears.

[(Infinity inventory)]

[____] [____] [____] [_____] [_____]

He then tries to put  the water bottle in one of the 5 slots by saying 'infinity' and immediately the bottle disappears from his hand and appears in one of the slots

[Water bottle ( 1 Iiters)]∞[][][][]

' Now I don't have to worry about water problems.' said Anik happily while summoning water bottles in one hand every second.

'One slot is gone and four more to go, should I store the can of food at 425 grams which is good for me, and it can be eaten right away as well as heated, I think I should store it but after heating it.' said Anik after careful consideration.

First, he took the frying pan plus a spoon and put it in the gas stove then started the gas stove which gives low fire like it was going to get finished and started to half-cut open the can with a can opener and pour can food into the frying pan and cook it for 3 minutes stirring with a spoon and taste it which was good enough.

Finally, pour all the manrydee into the can again and loosely seal it. Now, lastly put the cooked food in the 2nd slot by saying 'infinity'.

[Cooked can food(425 grams]∞[][][]

'Since the food and water issues are solved, now let's search for some weapons in his whole house quietly.' said Anik.

He then started to search if any zombies were in the house, and after he searched the whole room, he tried to block the door and windows without making too much noise. He also peeks through the window to see if there are any zombies but if doesn't find any besides some houses and a two-way road with some broken cars and dead humans lying on the ground.

6:02 PM

'I guess it's a pretty quiet town, maybe since there hasn't been any movement I shouldn't worry about getting ambushed and go to the upper floor bedroom to sleep ' said Anik with a yawn.

'At least I did find a kitchen knife and a baseball bat, which are both good. Knife is good for humans and baseball can be good for zombies to some extent.' said Anik while walking towards the upper bedroom.

*Crash*

'Aah finally at least it's the clean bed. Hey Aafia are you there? ' Said Anik Will, lying down on the bed.

[You finally remembered me. What do you want?]

'Can you listen and see even if I'm sleeping?' asked Anik.

[Yes, I can see and listen even if you go to sleep.]

'Then can you wake me up if any noises are being made please!' said Anik seriously.

[Fine Be grateful ok.]

'Thank you, thank you now let's have some dinner.' said Anik.

He first summoned a cooked can of food and a water bottle from the inventory opened the can of food and ate it with a spoon he found in the supplies box. After eating and drinking water, he washed the spoon with water then put it in the back and went to sleep.

'Good night Aafia'said Anik.

[Good night Anik]

--------------------------------------------

Time:-7:04AM

[Wake up Anik I think someone is trying to get in the house]

' What!! Whoo!!! Shit !! 'said Anik worriedly while getting up from the bed without making any noises.

He came close to the door heard breaking of the front door and tried to listen for the intruders.

"Hey Mike, don't make too much noise." Said 1st man in a low voice.

"Don't worry man we have already scouted the area and I don't think there are any zombies in there." Said Mike.

"The hell aren't there the door was blocked from the inside look cautiously and be close to me." said the 1st man quietly.

"Okay Jake, don't worry, we will deal with them easily," said Mike while holding a metal pipe.

"I smell blood be careful," said Jake while slowly moving to the kitchen, he also saw the dead humans and he saw a family photo in which there were three people a man, a woman and a little girl.

"See there isn't anyone," said Mike.

"Until we check every room we have been careful," said Jake, At the same time, he slowly walked to the other rooms on the first floor and when he entered the bedroom on the first floor, he saw a dead man whose head was open up.

'There is someone here, this body is fresher than that of the other two bodies so there is another person or people there. ' Jake thought in his while signalling Mike to slowly go to the upper floor with him.

Meanwhile, in the upper bedroom, Anik was holding a bat and a knife to be ready for them.

' I can't even jump down the window and run outside and leave this place and even if I escaped from here don't know what the condition in other places in both I am fucked!!.' said Anik.

He slowly went towards the door unlocked the door and went behind the door for an ambush. It's going to be hard to fight with two people at once, think fast of some time.' said Anik.

Then he suddenly heard the sound of walking in the distance.

"The person has walked into every room, that person must also be scavenging the area. The person is somewhere in here on the second floor. Be vigilant." in a very low voice to Mike. Mike just nodded seriously.

After searching all rooms but one in the last Conner, they both slowly walked towards it and tried to unlock the door, but it was already unlocked.

'Shouldn't the person be in here Why didn't the person lock the door or there is no people' thought Mike, but abruptly the door opened.

Anik tried to hit the closest to him and immediately was going to hit Jake in the head but Jake dodged it. However, he got hit in the shoulder and fell to the ground.
