Any walking corpse that sneaked on him was utterly severed by her.

The survival mark on the foreheads of all survivors gleamed with a tint of redness before fading. The survival mark was previously not hidden or erased as it was there like a tattoo for everyone to see. All survivors had this mark but right now it was no more, the survival selections had come to an end but was it the end of Genesis or the start of Genesis?
Huff! Huff! Huff!
The survivers all panted but you can clearly see pleased looks on their faces, yes they had made it alive. All of them had used up all the revival chances, the ones who had their attributes still running were the most affected of them all as their bodies were stressing out and they were feeling pain even until now but that could not dispell the relaxed looks and excitement for achieving the impossible.
The teenage youth was kneeling on the ground with his head low, a huge gaping hole which was still dripping with blood can be seen on his chest, the good thing was that he was still breathing, he was determined to see the next life and he could not allow himself to die even though his sight was hazy.
The old hag on the other hand was totally pale as she had lost so much blood just to reach where they were but the big grin on her face never disappeared. The walking corpses had disintegrated into pieces the moment the countdown turned to zero.
The whole city was so quiet with only huffing and panting coming from the five survivers. Both Master Chen and Madam Ross were missing some appendages which had probably fallen prey in the maws of those walking corpses but they didn't show uncomfortableness on their faces, they were all expectant and brimming with joy.
"I don't know how many of us have managed to survive until this time in the whole world." Madam Ross said in a low voice with a languid look plastered on her face.
"Who knows? What matters is that we have survived, the welfare of others doesn't concern us." Master Chen uttered Indifferently while Madam Ross only glared at him and she didn't say anything to him again.
Lazy Wafula unwrapped the shawl and put the girl who was hiding her face on her back on the ground and then he sat down. Just like his fellows, he had stopped running his attribute but the effects were still there and his state of health was deteriorating at a high speed. The next moment, the system suddenly got their attention and everyone of them indulge in its interface, and just like usual, it came out by itself without anyone among them willing it.
"Ding"
Quest [ Survive the infected encroachment in the remaining thirty minutes. ]
Mission status [ Completed ]
[ The survivers are now deemed as the newly awakened. The awakened will receive a boon to their attributes and those who didn't have an awakened attribute will have theirs awakened. ]
Quest rewards [ System Upgrade, Attribute / Constitution Enhancement and Understanding, Second Life, Awakening ]
[ The quest reward of the second life is going to be used right now because I can see that some of you are barely alive. Prepare yourself for MIGRATION ]
[ Migration will take place in three, two, one...]
Before the survivers even got a chance to say goodbye to each other and embrace each other at this moment now that they may never met each other, they felt the space around them melting.
The melting was not that hot or cold in that it could make them uncomfortable, no, it was rather pleasant to them. The melted space wrapped around them like a blanket. This blanket was watery when felt which made it look like they had been wrapped by a slime.
Their sight turned hazy as they tried to watch the whole migrating thing but they were so tired that they quickly fell for the hypnotism. They closed their eyes and the system finished all the preparations for migration.
Just like everyone of them, Lazy Wafula didn't want to leave this home planet but he was helpless and he can only allow himself to be enshrouded with the molten space. He wondered if those people whom he will meet in the next life will look like the ones of this planet.
He then remembered Queen Nakhumicha whom he had been taking care of, for now it had been two years since he got that exclusive quest.
The quest time limit ended the moment the countdown ended and he clearly saw Madam Ross untying the chains which she didn't thought that she will untie them one day. It was like the release of the captives, and in this case, she was the captive here, she could not help but sigh in relief.
Master Chen on the other hand was seen cursing now and then became the spider that she thought was still stuck on his back was no where to be seen but the quest window had said that he had competed the quest he was wondering when that thing escaped. He had wanted so much to crush it.
When Lazy Wafula shifted his gaze to where he had left Queen Nakhumicha, he saw the little girl standing where he had left her and the system had not done to her what was done to them (migration). 'Was the system planning to leave her behind?' Lazy watched the little girl carefully because he wanted to imprint her image in his soul so that he could not forget about the child he had been babysitting all this time.
His mind was then rattled, he felt like he was peeking at something divine, something that them mortals should not know...

{A/N: Let's applaud our very own editor, "BADASS(James Gichuhi)" he had been very supportive since the beginning and we will be with him for a very long time. Actually, this editor is my friend from campus and so, he is not getting anything for working for me, he is basically working for free. You guys should show some love to this guy when you meet him out there. He is really a nice guy like me, a true xtian who will not waver when someone needed help. Unfortunately, my editor, is a shy guy so he has not yet managed to get a girl for himself, I have tried to seduce some girls for him but those girls end up becoming mine and as you know, me being a man, I test those girls first before I give them to my editor but you know what guys? Those girls of course didn't like him and so they will grovel while seeking for my attention but I am not a guy who will take in a girl that I have dumped. I was only playing with them, alright? If they want love, my editor was ready to give them that but the stupid girls were not seeing this...}
I am very sorry James Gichuhi. You will find the love of your life one day. These campus dames are not worth your time...
