Chapter 13: Horde
[First hunt successful!]
[Calculating reward...]
Those words greeted Blaze when he woke up. At least it felt like waking up. In truth, he just regained control over his actions after he un-frenzied.
However, he couldn’t worry about that as he stared down at his bloodied hands. Beside him was the girl’s half-eaten corpse. Chunks of her flesh were missing and the entire alley was stained with her blood.
I did this?
He could still feel the raspy taste in his mouth. Her blood was as sweet as honey. He couldn’t help but lick his lips before licking his fingers.
It was a strange feeling. A part of him was disgusted, but a part felt... liberated. it was like an invisible anchor was holding him down before, but now he was set free.
That anchor was the last bit of morals he had. After eating a human, he no longer had any qualms about devouring humans.
I’m a zombie. The sooner I get it through my head, the better.
He might feel awkward, but for nature, it was the most normal thing. Humans had been eating a plethora of animals and enjoyed being at the top of the food chain.
However, now a new predator had arrived, so it was normal for humans to vacate their spot as the apex predator and join the rest at the bottom.
