Chapter 151: Unexpected Blue Screen?
Aiden can see two of them have quite average stats, while one of them has stats reaching quite close to Isla's, but her skill in close combat is lower than hers, and even her talent is only a CCC+ grade earth talent, but this is still enough to fight the zombie without taking much risk.
And lastly, a short 5-foot-6-inch woman with black hair and red bangs, which looked like it was colored. He didn't know if it was because his aunt also had red hair, but he chose to ignore it for now. Her stats are above the two who have the least stats, but her talent is quite good as she has BB+ fire elemental affinity, which is quite good.
He pointed his finger at the ones whom he was going to allow to fight beside him and said to Ava.
"These three are the ones who are fighting on the front lines with me. Send the other two back to their places, Ava." He didn't think Ava was going to fight beside him as he had already realized she was smart enough to understand her own weakness.
'Ava's stats are even lower than the weakest two, and even her close combat skill is low; only her knife technique is equal to her sister Isla's, which is pretty impressive for her.'
But this doesn't mean anything to him, as he only waited for the fateful day when she would awaken her S-rank death element affinity.
'I know this talent is going to be an overpowered talent like his sister's S+ grade talent, or it has even more potential.'
Hearing the word 'death,' undead comes to his mind, but he's not sure if he could really create undead.
'Don't think about it too much for now; you will know when she awakens her talent.'
Ava doesn't know why her leader is looking at her while smiling, but she gets chills down her spine when he does that.
'Does he really want to have me? But my sister is in love, and I know he is not clueless about it, so why is he targeting me when we both look the same?'
She didn't wait much longer, not wanting to give the crazy woman beside Aiden any wrong ideas, so she quickly asked his permission to leave with a little redness on her face.
"Can I take the other two and go now, Leader?"
Aiden told her to go and looked at the three women in front of him and said,
"I will be in front, and I will leave some zombies that would find their next target and come toward you guys, so you guys have to kill them. Make sure to be careful, or you could even die."
"Are you guys ready?"
With a loud unison, three of them replied at the same time, as it was not the first time they were going to risk their lives. The only difference is now that they don't have to worry about the schemes enemies would throw at them, so this head-on fight is much more comfortable for them.
"Yes, Leader!"
Seeing their spirit, Aiden told Ava to make preparations to open the gate as he stood with his sister beside him in black metallic armor with golden designs, and the three women in simple black metallic armor following behind them.
After a few minutes of waiting, the gate started to open once again and the sound of zombies' roars could be heard.
Argh Argh
The big metallic gate stopped opening when there was only enough space for one person to pass at a time.
The first zombie came inside, running toward Aiden as he was on the way to reach the others. Seeing the ugly zombie running toward him and only 5 meters away, Aiden didn't do anything and let it come closer while keeping his hand on the sword at his waist.
But just as it reached two meters within range, Aiden's figure blurred slightly as he moved only a little, and with a quick, light movement of his hands using 50% of his strength, he beheaded the zombie, which always showed an opening.
Its head flew as blood splattered on the ground, but Aiden didn't wait for it to fall down and quickly dashed forward with the same strength, his blurry figure reaching another zombie that was coming toward him. Like before, without wasting extra movements, he decapitated the head of the zombie.
While killing these two zombies, Aiden noticed their speed was slightly faster than yesterday, but to him, it still didn't make any difference.
'I don't know if only their speed has increased, as they haven't gotten the chance to show anything other than their speed, which is still quite slow.'
Aiden decided to inform the others about this as he didn't want to take any risk.
"ALL OF YOU SHOULD BE CAREFUL; I THINK THEY ARE A LITTLE STRONGER THAN YESTERDAY!"
Alicia and the other three women, hearing his words, didn't take him lightly, became even more alert, and decided to be more careful.
Aiden continued as he killed more and more zombies easily, leaving many zombies for the others from time to time.
Alicia killed the first zombie that came to her with a single clean strike, and seeing how easily she killed it, she showed a wide smile to the air in front of her.
'I am already feeling mad about how my brother has learned to flirt with others, and now if these ugly things had given me trouble, I would have felt even angrier. But after seeing how weak they are, I am going to enjoy playing with them, kekeke.'
Isla can also take care of these zombies quite easily, though not as easily as Alicia. However she doesn't think they are a threat to her life.
She uses her magic sometimes in between to target their legs or eyes to make them lose focus, then uses her katana afterward to deliver a full-powered slash to their necks, killing them. Her swordsmanship is not at Alicia's level, so fighting with a sword takes more effort, making her spend much more stamina.
But she is not going to stop because of this, as she already has an idea of how she wants to develop her ability.
The other two remaining women are currently not using their swords as they couldn't get familiar with such a new weapon so quickly, unlike the freak Isla. With their handguns in one hand and razor-sharp black knives in the other, they are fighting in a way they are more comfortable with.
Still, they didn't forget to take advantage of their magic from time to time as they practiced yesterday. While fighting, casting spells takes a little more time than usual for them, which is still not a problem as the zombies' speed is slower than theirs, so they can easily dodge them.
They only used their handguns when necessary, as Ava had mentioned to use them only when it was needed. While one used fire magic and the other used earth magic, they were pretty comfortable even when their fights took longer.
Aiden is killing zombies left and right while leaving some for the women behind him from time to time.
He decided to check on the three women to see how they were doing. He could see Isla doing pretty well, so he focused on the others while beheading the zombies. It was easy for him to focus on them as the zombies' speed was too slow for him.
Just as he looked at the first lady, a transparent blue screen appeared in front of him suddenly, but he quickly thought of sending it away as soon as he saw it without even reading it, as he didn't want to become careless while fighting.
'But what was that? I didn't call the status, so how did it appear suddenly in front of me?'
