Kateb nodded, "That's right."
Hikaru and Laylah said nothing more, as they followed behind Kateb. The deeper inside the supermarket they went, the darker it got, Kateb then pulled out a flashlight, to light the way.
He said: "There is no electricity, it's a bit dark in here, be careful. However, you don't need to worry about this place being dangerous because the zombies in and around the supermarket have been dealt with by me."
The three of them continued walking, at this point, Laylah whispered to Hikaru: "Looks like I'm not the only one with superpowers, do I?"
Hikaru nodded and said, "There are many who possess superpowers, however, your superpowers are still very strong."
"Even though Kateb or Chovic both possess superpowers with limited potential, it's probably just superpowers that help them increase their physical strength."
"Because their potential is not great, their rate of development is not high, so they can easily awaken and use those superpowers."
"However, in the future, when esper possessors like you begin to awaken and develop, you will be stronger than those possessing physical superpowers."
Laylah heard that and smiled: "It seems… you understand this world very well, don't you?"
Hikaru didn't hide it either, he nodded and said, "That's right. If you want to know more, you have to pay a fee."
Laylah suddenly hugged his arm, burying it between two soft mountains, and with a cute voice she said: "Isn't this price enough… Hikaru… if you want more… I… I can…"
Hikaru: "..."
ραΠdαsΝοvel.cοm "Don't think I don't know that you're acting. I find it very strange, why don't you work as an actor but as a police officer?"
"Why don't you get career guidance from adults? If you're an actor, I guarantee you'll win an Oscar."
Laylah pouted hearing that: "Huh! Are you still a man? I am trying to be cute so that you will help me. Velys might be blind to love you."
"Ah! Even if Velys is blind, she's better than you."
"Is she better than me? Better than me in what way?"
"She is better than you in every way."
Laylah was angry, her face was red. From the moment she was born, no man dared to speak to her like that.
Almost every man flattered her. There were even some rich butlers who spent millions of dollars to organize a birthday party for her because of her smile.
Yet… now, no matter how much Laylah acted cute with Hikaru, he ignored her.
And he even bullied her.
Kateb saw Hikaru and Laylah talking to each other, he smiled and shook his head and thought: "Youth energy is really amazing."
…
Kateb led the two to a partition erected by shelves, and he pushed the shelves with force, revealing a small aisle.
Around that aisle, there were many lit candles placed on the surrounding shelves, allowing them to clearly see everything inside.
After everyone went inside, Kateb pushed the shelf back to its original position.
Hikaru could only shake his head when he saw that. He knew why Kateb did it.
Maybe it's to prevent those thugs from coming to this place or to stop Zombies.
However, whatever the reason, these shelves were only a temporary barrier.
If Chovic wanted to, he could easily destroy this simple barrier.
"Ah!!"
Suddenly, a scream filled with pain was heard, which surprised Hikaru and Laylah.
Kateb was filled with anxiety and said, "Hurry up, that woman is about to give birth."
Kateb didn't wait for them to reply, as he immediately ducked through the shelves, and went deeper.
At this time, they came to a warehouse, although it was a warehouse, the place was extremely large.
A special feature of the warehouse is that to get inside, they had to go through two heavy metal doors.
In the distance, about 10 meters away from them, was a group of about 12 people sitting or peering warily inside.
"Ah!!"
The screams resounded again, at this time, someone felt uncomfortable and wanted to say something. But when they saw Kateb, they immediately fell silent.
Kateb entered, and quickly moved deeper. It was extremely dark there, and he had to use a flashlight to barely see the path.
At this moment, Hikaru and Laylah saw a barrier erected by crates.
Kateb angrily shouted: "Damn it! Surely the others set it up."
Hikaru and Laylah found it difficult to understand, however, they just followed after Kateb, not interfering with their affairs.
Kateb gently took each box that was blocking the exit, and placed it on two shelves on either side.
They then saw a woman lying at the end of the hallway, her back against the wall. At this point, she was sweating so much that her hair was wet, causing it to stick to her face.
She kept groaning in pain and rubbed her stomach with her hand.
Her belly was huge, it wasn't hard to see that she was about to give birth, however, what made Hikaru frown was that there was a wound on that woman's other arm.
That wound was just a small scratch, about 3 cm long. But… around that wound, countless blood veins connected to it emerged like green tree roots hidden under the skin.
Kateb hurried over to the woman's side, unbuckled the backpack on her back, and took out a lot of medical equipment.
Of course, those were just first aid tools such as medical cotton, gauze, etc.
"Sanym, you have to work hard, don't give in to fate. Try to take a deep breath…"
Kateb hurriedly said, The girl named Sanym did as he said, as she tried to take a deep breath: "Ah… it hurts… Kateb… I… it hurts.. please.. save my baby… please."
Kateb grabbed her hand and said, "Don't worry… you'll be fine. Try to have the baby and everything will be fine."
After saying that, Kateb turned his head, his eyes filled with anger as he shouted: "Aron, come here quickly! If you keep hiding, I'll break your neck and throw it out to the zombies."
"I will count to 3…"
"1…"
"2…"
"Stop!" A voice rang out, and a man rushed to this place, he stood in the distance, about 5 meters away from them.
He was a man who was about 35 years old, he was wearing glasses, a shirt and trousers.
From the outside, you can tell that the man is a businessman or an office worker.
Kateb angrily shouted: "You bastard! Your wife is about to give birth, so why are you hiding again?! Are you still a man?"
"Come here! Take her hand."
Aron trembled in fear, he did not approach, but took a step back, stammering: "You… You are crazy. She was injured by a zombie, she is about to turn into a zombie…"
"Kill her! Otherwise, by the time she turns into a zombie… she… she will kill us all."
Kateb frowned, he was so angry that Hikaru could clearly see the veins of blood on his forehead rising under the skin.
"Bastard! She saved you until she was injured by a Zombie. Now, you want to kill her, kill the life that is about to be born in her belly?"
"This is your wife and children! Are you still human?"
As Kateb said this he made the man take another step back, however, he did not regret it.
On the contrary, the man felt even more scared: "Kateb, you are doing something crazy. Kill her, we will live. If you don't kill her, everyone here will die."
"That's right!" Suddenly, another person approached the place.
No, not just one person but a group of people. They all expressed their displeasure with Kateb.
"You want to kill us?"
"Are you blind? Can't you see that girl is about to turn into a zombie?"
"Yes, if you want to die then die alone. I don't want to die."
"Kill her! The fetus in her belly is definitely a monster too."
"Kill that bastard!"
Aron heard everyone talking, and he seemed to regain his confidence, then laughed and said: "Kateb, I know you have special powers, and that you can kill zombies. But you're so stupid, that bitch is about to turn into a zombie, what's the use of you helping her?"
"If you can't do it, let me..." Aron said as he pulled a knife from his pocket: "Before she turns into a zombie, we can kill her easily."
"Ah!!" Sanym screamed in pain, her tears and sweat were mixed in her anguished face: "Why? When we got married, you said you would protect me for the rest of your life… why?"
"Huh! Because you are stupid. Don't worry, I'll kill you and the baby in your belly, so you can be reunited in heaven."
Aron said while smiling coldly like a madman.
"That's right, Kateb, get out of the way. If you can't kill that bitch, leave me alone."
The people behind Aron shouted, then they took out knives and baseball bats.
Kateb could see that their eyes were filled with hate and fear as they looked at Sanym.
Sanym cried, the amniotic fluid and blood underneath came out so much that Kateb didn't know what to do.
"Bastard!" Kateb gritted his teeth, his face filled with anger: "You guys are no longer human! Are you pointing weapons at a pregnant woman in danger?"
"You should remember that I am the one who helped you survive here, as I killed all the zombies around this place."
"So what?" Aron shouted: "Even if you kill the zombies, you are putting me and the people hiding in this place in danger."
"You keep bringing survivors to this place, and this causes the food to run out faster."
"Even now, you're protecting a bitch that's about to turn into a Zombie. Do you think we'll listen to your orders, bastard?"
As Kateb heard that he was angry, he didn't think that Aron, who had a decent appearance and knowledge would say such things.
It is true that you cannot judge others by their appearance.
Aron pointed a knife at Kateb, his hand shaking perhaps because Kateb would kill him but he still managed to say: "I… I will give you a chance. Kill that bitch or get out of here."
"You, that girl, and this kid." Aron pointed the knife at Hikaru: "But the girl can stay."
Laylah frowned, but suddenly, Hikaru put his hand on her shoulder.
Laylah turned to look at Hikaru, and saw him shaking his head, signaling her not to act.
Laylah sighed, then crossed her arms, ignoring Aron's words, and treating him like a rabid dog barking.
Kateb was different, he gritted his teeth, his red eyes filled with murderous intent as he looked at Aron and the people behind him.
"Damn it! I didn't think you all were such a bunch of assholes."
Then he turned his head to look at Sanym, who was crying from the pain of childbirth and the words of the others.
Kateb clenched his fist, and after a while, he angrily said: "Okay! I will leave."
