CHAPTER X - MANA ZOMBIES (2)

The school's events had already began, teachers and students chatting happily, some getting scolded for heinous acts.

He really felt like he was missing out on the vacation he declined earlier. He had to attend this event.

The thing was, you should at least be present during the ceremony at least once a week , especially those who had their businesses to tend to concerning their personal lives.

Nathan could have done that but he decided to attend every single one of the ceremony.

Well part of this motivation was due to the fact that he had never once seen Nathan skip a day of school in his entire life of 15.

Unless he falls sick which really was a very rare sight . His goal was to be like Nathan.

He could have been with his father and sister, having some quality time with them instead of staying at the school stuck in this ceremony a stuff.

But what could he do about it?, he ought to come as he isn't allowed to skip this memorable day or he might as well be expelled from the school.

But considering the status of his family,as well as his academic prowess ,he would at least gotten a punishment a little less harsh like suspension for a week or so.

Ethan stood right there at the same place he stood at the assembly hall.

He hadn't moved an inch yet, after quite a long time, he moved as he started strolling around the campus looking for something interesting to indulge himself into to pass the time.

It was a few hours passed until he decided that he had had enough walking for the day as his feet and left started to sting a little bit from walking too much with rest today.

He had a few cans of non-alcoholic beverages. It's not like the school would even make.that available to students noatter how old a student was.

It was a pretty decent school known very well. It's was currently 1pm I the afternoon.

Ethan returned to his dorm later, well not before hiding from some of his friends by blending into the crowd as to not get bothered today.

It was relatively difficult though. Ethan often received glares of astonishment and some envious gazes from male students while majority of the astonished gazes stemmed from the females, teachers included.

Ethan was relatively a good looking young boy. Unlike Nathan, he often gymed a little bit. He had quite a masculine look yet a little faint trace of feminity on his face.

He was very young with room for more improvement. his hair colour was golden blonde.

Unlike Nathan who's hair was almost across his entire neck, his hair w had already reached shoulder length.

He had his hair tied up in a normal ponytail with strands of hair at the side of his face. He had a well defined face outline yet his jawline was that of masculinity yet thin given his age.

Well the rest of his body wasn't quite visible to the eye as he was currently wearing a red school jacket with the schools named imprinted on it.

He wore matching pants that also complemented his top upper outfit.with the same imprint of the School's name vertically on the right side of his pants.

They were a bit baggy on his body. He wore this on purpose to avoid others seeing the outlines of his body.

Well , underneath his jacket was a well developed muscle which was not bad for his age, well he couldn't compare to most of the fully committed athletic students as he was still young and growing finer by the minute .

After he made it to his assigned room in the school, he locked the door behind him and put on his head set and started listening to soothing music.

It was finally the end of the ceremony for the day, the ceremony would end at the week so ther would be the same thing the next day.

At the moment, Ethan had already drifted asleed already as the time passes by rapidly.

He woke up at 7:50 pm, he found out his headset to be Still on and around his ears.

They were still on and playing music

Luckily for him, it wasn't that loud yet loud enough to block noise from outside his room.

There was a sudden scream outside which he could now hear after settling the headset around his neck.

He stood up with a hurried expression on his face and his body movement as he he paced towards the door with a face full of curiosity. Without hesitation, he opened the door of his room.

And to his utmost disbelief and terror, what he saw left him astounded not due to a pleasant surprise yet what he saw was no infact were humanoid creatures with shriveled hair on some parts of their hair, almost like balding spots bothale and female alike.

They had corroded skin, almost like that of a dead body, they had some healthy skins like that of a normal human in some pats of of their body, although limited, like he arms, legs, face and other parts.

They had some green liquid substance coming from every single pore on their infected skins.

It reeked like a dead body after being buried for a month in an enclosed space. They were alive yet dead at the same time,.it was almost as if they had lost consciousness yet still moving around.

They had pure white eyes which blood red veins going through them while pulsating like moving worms.

The veins on underneath the skin showed boldly with some directly on top of the skin in a saggy stiff manner.

It kept moving slight like a worm and pulsating as well.

There were veins all over their skins.

There were about hundreds of undead looking creatures af both genders in Ethan's field of vision.

People were running for their utmost survuyas they too wanted to live to see another day.

Some fell to the ground while so called couples.would leave each other just to save themsy. Such a pity.

It's fascinating how a person could have a change of heart and ideals in a state like this one. Well, after all it is natural for creatures like us human beings with intelligence to know what's needed to survive.

Tears were heard everywhere as people were pushing each other just to run and save themselves.

It wouldn't be wrong to say the survival of the fittest was actually a rule, the human race followed.

That would be evident as long as humans didn't advance and knew the way of peace keeping or else this scene would have been normal since long ago.
