Chapter 19: Rei Miyamoto, what kind of weird inclinations have you developed?

The noise of fireworks varies greatly depending on the type and quantity.

However, it's no exaggeration to say that the sound of a large fireworks display can rival that of firearms and other loud weapons. If you're willing to spend enough, you could even create a din reminiscent of the Second World War.

Points: 8752

Tsubasa Amagiri opened the system and looked at his point total.

Originally, his points had exceeded 6,000. His recent dash through the zombies had earned him another 1,000 plus.

Over 8,000, nearly 9,000 points!

Very substantial!

And more than enough for his immediate needs!

Tsubasa decided against buying more. After all, he didn't intend to die, he simply wanted to lure these zombies away. Making too much noise could backfire, potentially attracting even more of the undead instead of leading them away.

He selected several items that produced relatively loud noises.

Even so, the points were directly reduced by nearly 1,000.

Tsubasa felt a slight pang of regret!

That was almost enough for another attribute point!

Damn it, it was all the fault of the protagonists, especially Miyamoto Rei.

Thinking of this, Tsubasa couldn't help but glance back at Miyamoto Rei and glare at her. Well, her left cheek was already red and swollen. That slap had been surprisingly satisfying. Should he consider a follow-up on the right cheek later?…

"???"

At this time, Miyamoto Rei was looking at Tsubasa curiously. When she met his fierce gaze, she was immediately confused. What had she done wrong now? Was he going to punish her again?

Thinking this, she felt an inexplicable thrill. Involuntarily, her eyes widened with a look of astonishment… almost anticipation.

Hmm?

What's with that look?

Noticing the change in Miyamoto Rei's expression, a big question mark popped up in Tsubasa's head.

Girl, what strange attribute have you awakened?

"…"Damn it, you're crazy!"

Tsubasa cursed inwardly. He didn't have time to dwell on these oddities now. He immediately retracted his gaze and ignored Miyamoto Rei.

"System, buy now!"

"Ding! Purchase successful!"

As the system's voice chimed, Tsubasa immediately took out a well-packaged [2000-shot hanging firecrackers], a 120-shot [Good Luck Fountain], and several [Double-bang Crackers], [Whistling Monkeys], and [Flying Jellyfish Rockets] from the system mall. He then lit the fuses with the lighter he had just picked up in the office.

Chi chi chi – bright sparks burned quickly like tongues of fire.

Tsubasa raised his hand and threw them all out. With his current strength, these items flew more than a hundred meters away and landed on the playground opposite the teaching building.

Just one second!

Crackling!!!

Whoosh~Bang!!

The deafening sound of firecrackers, at this moment, resounded throughout Wisteria College!!

"Roar, roar, roar…"

"Hohoho…"

The noise was so loud it felt like a biochemical countdown had just begun, the sound so dense it felt like it was exploding right next to your ear.

In an instant, the entire school's zombie horde was completely agitated and drawn out!...

"..."

The teacher's office fell silent.

Miyamoto Rei opened her mouth and stared blankly outside.

In the corner, Saya Takagi, who had fainted, was also awakened by the ear-splitting sound of firecrackers. She rubbed her long pink hair, got up from the ground, knelt down, and her super short JK skirt rode up, revealing a corner of her panties.

However, she herself was unaware.

"What is she doing? Is the school festival starting again?"

Obviously, she hadn't fully regained consciousness.

"..."

No one paid any attention to her.

Tsubasa's actions were truly astonishing!

Almost all the zombies in the entire academy were attracted out and gathered on the lawn and the playground.

The scene was indescribable!

Spectacular?

No!

It could only be described as terrifying!…

"Help! Someone save me!!"

"I don't want to die, Mom and Dad, where are you? Teacher, please come and save me…"

"Ah!! You monsters, get out of here!!"

"Bastard! Bastard! Bastard!!! Who on earth is behind this blinding noise? Why are you trying to hurt us!!!"

"No, no, no, no…"

There were still students in the school who hadn't managed to survive.

Those other survivors were hiding well, as long as they didn't make any noise, the zombies wouldn't be able to find them. But the noise Tsubasa had created was deafening.

The zombies throughout the entire school were now alerted.

Whether it was those wandering aimlessly in the corners, those gathered in classrooms, or those in the dormitory buildings, they all seemed to have been injected with stimulants, falling into a state of agitated frenzy.

Because of this.

Those survivors who might have lived longer were directly caught in the chaos.

Shouts of terror echoed one after another.

Looking around.

In those teaching buildings, many students could be seen fleeing through the surging zombie tide, and some teachers were leading students in desperate escapes from the dormitory building.

But without exception, they were all quickly overwhelmed and swallowed by the mass of undead!

These horrifying scenes!

Tsubasa and the others heard and saw them with their own eyes.

But!

Whether it was Tsubasa, Saeko Busujima, or Shizuka Marikawa, they didn't react at all, simply watching quietly.

This was the brutal law of survival in the end of the world.

They had experienced a similar harsh reality once before in the teacher's office.

"Sorry…"

Miyamoto Rei felt her whole body trembling uncontrollably. She hugged herself tightly, her face so pale it was almost translucent.

Even though she and Komuro Takashi had killed many zombies along the way, this scene was too visually traumatizing. It was truly her first time witnessing such widespread carnage!

The mist in her eyes quickly welled up into tears and slid down her cheeks. She bit her thin lips tightly and offered a silent apology in her heart.

It's all because of me!

Otherwise, there wouldn't have been such a huge commotion, and classmate Tsubasa wouldn't have had to choose this method to attract the zombies outside the door.

This way, those classmates who were hiding so well wouldn't have died…

Shizuka Marikawa came over and gently held Miyamoto Rei in her arms, offering silent comfort without saying a word.

The end of the world had arrived. This was a new, cruel reality. They could no longer afford to prioritize the lives and deaths of others.

"How could this…"

Saya Takagi was so frightened she was speechless…

"This time we made a really big noise…"

Saeko Busujima's deep purple eyes swept across the office door. There was no movement. Even the deafening roar outside that had initially made their scalps tingle was quickly fading away.

She took a few steps forward, raised her hands to hug Tsubasa Amagiri's waist, and leaned her beautiful face against his chest, saying softly,

"We just want to survive!"

Tsubasa hugged Saeko Busujima's slender waist, which felt soft and boneless. He looked at the students and teachers being overwhelmed by the tide of corpses. He felt no remorse.

After all, this was within his expectations.

"Yes."

Saeko Busujima responded softly.

She would never oppose Tsubasa's decision. As long as it was his will, she would agree and obey.
