Instant Death

Eight stories. In a world overflowing with Seila, only the wretched won't be attacked.

Hanagawa was troubled as he went down the stairs from the rooftop.

Theon went out to a sage gathering, and the conversation ended and he was disbanded.

Everyone went first, so Hanagawa walks alone.

"No, no, no! I still don't know if Lord Takayo and Chikuzentan will go together or if Ayako really will take Carol with her!" What do you mean, you and Mita-ji go side by side in a friendly way? Please don't go to the concierge anytime soon! "

Everyone was taken away as a matter of course, so I was hesitant to break in there.

"Now. I told you I'd stay in this world... but I don't know what to do in this situation..."

I wanted to spoil Theon for creating Harlem, but I also wondered if I could do that in a world where Seira was spreading.

"Uu...... In a world overflowing with Seila, only the clumsy won't be attacked." I feel like a true Harlem king, but isn't that a good story about insects... no, I don't think there's anything convenient about Wanchang Soyu? For some reason, only the clumsy ones have Seila antibodies. Fufufu! Literally no one can defy you if you feed them! ”

Even though I was delusional, I didn't think I was going to confirm it.

Everything outside the barrier that covers the hotel is a danger zone. It's not sane to go out on purpose.

"Well, if you go out for a little try, in the worst case, you can only use your hand once..."

It was suddenly conveyed in a mysterious communication, and it would be unbelievable to move to the underworld instantly. But Hanagawa didn't suspect anything.

Van seemed to be the type not to lie.

"But it's a game made by Lord Van, isn't it?" Even at school, I had you take care of this... but I can't trust that... "

It is true that you tried to help Hanagawa. But to do that, he said he could brainwash those around him. In other words, you're the type of person who doesn't distinguish much between good and evil. It was not surprising that this handkerchief did something unethical out of kindness.

"I don't know what I'm going to do when I'm told I'm going to do an underground quest... well, I guess I'll be safe here for a while." I know you're worried about food, but Lord Theon can teleport himself and those around him, so you can't just bring food! I hate being told to spend the rest of my life here... well! It must be something that the protagonist who is somewhere will solve anyway! "

I don't want to solve it myself, and I couldn't do it in the first place.

"Damn it! If you were Lord Takayo, you could do something similar!? You can kill anything, so you can move freely no matter what Seira is!" Oh, my God, I'm not motivated! Did you do something to help people, at least by saying, "Oh, my God." I don't know what to say! If you have such power, you can do whatever you want, and you can't do anything in Harlem without knowing the other world! "

Hanagawa goes down the stairs, saying it was a bump.

"Well, there is no one who can do it without indignation, but the current lame is already forgiving." After all, Harlem was promised to me. "

Hanagawa put something serious on the shelf and decided to enjoy this luxury hotel for the time being. The shops and restaurants are concentrated on the first floor, so I decided to go there first.

"Well then, how about dining in the restaurant...?" If you're worried about ingredients, there's a chance you're not doing it.... "

But that worry ended in anxiety.

Does it make no sense to conserve ingredients in the restaurant, or does it make no sense to think about food shortages? What a fine dining restaurant it was.

I'm begging you for the best!

I don't have a gift from Hanagawa so I can't use the item box and I can't get a lot of money. However, it seemed that the restaurant knew that Hanagawa was related to the wise man, and he was immediately escorted to his seat.

"Speaking of which, isn't it the first time in a long time that you've had a decent meal?" This will raise expectations! "

Hanagawa looked around, his chest swelling with anticipation. I made the right order, so I didn't even know what kind of food was coming out.

There were only a few pairs in the store. As expected, the people of the city who came in for the evacuation did not push back.

Hanagawa turned his attention to the table nearby. Families who seem to be wealthy eat there, and there are cramped cuisines that a few people can't eat.

"Oh, oh... it feels wilder than I thought in a high-end restaurant." There must be some kind of round grill in the middle... how can I eat that... "

I don't know what kind of creature it is, but the four-legged beast that was burnt down showed a strange presence on the table.

"Well, well... the smell is so fragrant and appetizing... it must be delicious!"

I was a little worried, but Hanagawa was forced to deceive me. That's right, there shouldn't be anything weird coming out of it.

However, such anxiety was overwritten by another anxiety that cooking would hardly come out.

I've been waiting, but not a plate of food is served.

"Hmm. Perhaps the best thing is that it takes the most time... if this happens, ask for something that will come out soon--"

If it's going to take a while, I'll ask you for something else that I can offer you right away. There was a loud noise in the back kitchen when Hanagawa was pouting.

The sound of metallic objects falling flashily, dishes cracking, and a faint scream.

"I have a very bad feeling about this... but it's rare for me to hear something like this in a restaurant-that's right!" The plates that the new girl chef, Dodiko, had made for the clumsy ones, had inadvertently struck all the dishes he was about to serve on the floor! I don't know if that's true! In this case! Isn't it true that the new girl chef comes directly to apologize to the embarrassed!? "

Maybe we should get up right now and get out of here. But maybe a new girl chef would come along looking sorry.

When Hanagawa was lost, a man who looked like the owner of a family at a nearby table pushed him to the table. The food blows flashily, and the wives and children with them scream.

If that's all, I wonder if he collapsed from a sudden illness, but there were many strange things growing from the back of the man. It's as if the intestine came out through the back, and it's wobbly, and it's entangled in the food.

"You must be some kind of zombie thing! I completely sealed off the building and locked it away for peace of mind, but the infected were already inside, so I just got cornered! Isn't that who you are!"

Hanagawa instinctively felt that the fallen man was infected with Seira. It shouldn't be the case that parasites that have nothing to do with this situation have jumped out of the body.

The tentacles stretched out from the man become entangled in his wife and children. It didn't seem like something was going to happen right away, but there was a rapid change elsewhere.

It's a lump of whole meat. Completely dead and cooked, it's starting to twitch.

The legs that had been cut off had grown, and the hair of the beast had grown on the body that had been burned.

And similar changes were occurring in other dishes. Resurrected fish and shrimp jump on the plate, something stupid in the soup, and the salad instantly multiplies and begins to cover the table in green.

"Hah! I looked at it unintentionally, but I had to run away!"

Hanagawa rose from her chair and slowly stepped back.

Fortunately, the infected ingredients are not only for Hanagawa. First of all, they were attacking the people in close proximity.

"Don't panic, don't be noisy, don't slow down. Isn't it possible that a clumsy person won't be attacked?"

However, such desperate hopes were quickly extinguished.

I wonder if the infection is complete, or if my freaked-out family has all seen Hanagawa.

"It can't be that only the clumsy won't get attacked!"

This is not a case of slow escape. Hanagawa rushed to the exit in a flash.

Leave the restaurant and go to the lobby. The Seila infected didn't come after us any time soon. Apparently, I couldn't move quickly.

Could this be a classic zombie pattern that you can't run after?

But the noise was in the lobby.

People with fake eyes and a distorted appearance are attacking the people around them.

For now, we have to run upstairs!

It doesn't make sense to go outside somehow. It's probably already overflowing with Seira, and I don't know if I can get through the barrier.

Hanagawa ran to the stairs.

Something came after me. It was at full speed, too.

"I have to ask you to stop mixed with running systems!"

But the one they were after was a giant like Hanagawa. Is that why your legs aren't so fast?

But Hanagawa's legs weren't that fast.

"Ugh! Two running fat guys can't help but be a picture!" I don't know what to do in this life-threatening situation, but I feel a little more urgency... I can't help it at a time when I'm running as hard as I can and I'm being caught up! "

That's why you can't stop. Hanagawa managed to reach the stairs.

"The stairs... are tight... but..."

The giants that came after him were struggling with the stairs. It seems that infecting Seira does not improve my physical abilities.

"But when I ran away...!" An absolute patron saint who can be relied upon by the wretched at a time like this! Isn't there a teacher? Somehow... you're on the fifth floor, aren't you? "

In a situation where we had not even reached the second floor, the fifth floor seemed very far away.

"Well, well, it looks like he's tired of coming after me too, so if this keeps up..."

Thinking optimistically, even though it wasn't at all alarming, I heard footsteps coming from behind the giant.

And immediately, the owners of the footsteps pushed the giant away and approached Hanagawa.

"Haha... well... if you just want to be immortal and increase your companions... wow!"

The moment she stopped giving up, Hanagawa felt a sudden acceleration. An exhausted body is flying upstairs.

Hanagawa arrived on the second floor in no time.

"What? Huh? Awakening of the clumsy?" The power that was hidden in the pinch was unleashed, wasn't it? "

"I'm sorry for the inconvenience." Are you hurt? "

It was Celestina, the concierge of the hotel.

I looked back downstairs to see what had happened.

Those Ceyla infected who were chasing them were rolling down to the ground floor, stopping them from moving.

"Come here a little bit more."

As she approached Celestina as she was told, the fire door broke down.

What the hell is this?

This way.

That said, Celestina puts her hand forward. There was a lump of yarn that was almost invisible.

"With this yarn, Hanagawa-sama was pulled up, and the people who came after him were tied up with yarn and dropped downstairs."

Why does the hotel concierge have that ability?

"It's something I learned by hand." It's not usually that useful, but it's a little bit useful in these cases. ”

"No, I'm not going to use yarn... I'm going to use yarn with a strong character!"

"Fufufu. I'm afraid so."

"However, if you close this door, the person below you will....."

I don't know what you're talking about when you run away by yourself, but I'm a little worried when I'm in a safe situation.

"I'm very sorry, but there's only one person on the ground floor who has been evacuated with the staff. And I prioritize the safety of guests staying at hotels.”

In other words, it seems that they have abandoned what is not a customer.

"Um... but isn't it safe here?"

"I'm sorry about this, but I can't say that." All passages to the first floor have been blocked, but the fire doors are not as strong. And if you think about the organism of that creature, you can probably think about coming through the vents. "

So what do we do now?

"Even if we stay here, it seems that annihilation is only a matter of time. Maybe we should find another safe base somehow, but... we don't want that, because the enemy is coming down from the sky. At present, I think we can only ask for the help of a wise man."

"That's what the wise man Van said, right?" Are you sure you're okay? "

"I think the story of transferring is true. There's no point in lying to me like that."

"But even if they say that just playing underground quests will transfer... ah!"

Ah!

I didn't think Hanagawa would say the keyword, but Celestina, who was always smiling with a spare smile, was impatient.

Hanagawa's body glowed blurry.

"Um... I hope you're taking care of yourself."

"No, I have to do something about that!" I didn't feel like going now! I don't know when I'll say such simple words, but it's strange that the key word is transfer! "

"I don't think it's a string that I dare say in everyday life... but I tied my thread to Hanagawa-sama's body as a matter of fact." I'm sure I'll be seeing you soon, so I'm sure there's something I can do to help. ”

And then Hanagawa disappeared from the hallway of the hotel.
