Leave of Absence

December 28th, blizzard

Today is the eighth day since I entered the zombie city. What humans fear so much is actually the safest place for me.

Zombies are everywhere here, and I can control them at will. Whether I enter the city gate or live in this villa, it's all a result of controlling the zombies.

The current state of the zombie city surprised me. The proportion of rational zombies in the city is even more exaggerated than I imagined, reaching a terrifying one percent.

Rational zombies live the same way as ordinary people, even eating the same things, and have no bloodlust or cannibalistic desires.

What exactly is the difference between a rational zombie and a human?

Well, I'm not suited to thinking about these kinds of questions; that's for scientists and philosophers. I'm here to investigate the eight zombies known as "Kings."

According to several zombies who witnessed the Zombie King's power, the Zombie King of this city is incredibly strong. He rides an elephant, and can even carry the elephant on his shoulders while running, toss it into the air, and then let it fall back down.

As for the limit of this Corpse King's power, no one has ever seen it.

It's unclear whether my ability to control zombies will work on the Zombie King. I need to be careful. If it doesn't work, I'm afraid I'll have no choice but to submit to the will of the zombie planet and become the true Zombie King, or perhaps it would be more appropriate to call him "Zombie Emperor" or "Zombie King"?

Or is it that the will of the zombie planet has been withholding information about my eight zombie kings in order to lure me into its trap?

This guy never says anything, he just spends all his time comparing who writes better novels with the Blue Star Planet Will.

Strange, I feel like there's some noise coming from the basement of the villa. Is it just my imagination?

I'll go check and ask for a day off.
