Chapter 62. Mutation
“Oh my god… Gayoung. Oppa? Are you really okay, Oppa? Are you badly hurt?” When we returned, looking utterly disheveled, the members who had stayed behind to clean up erupted in a frenzy. Seonyoung, still tearfully caressing the unconscious Gayoung’s face, then approached me, reaching to take off my clothes to examine my wounds.
“Seonyoung, wait a second. Ow, that stings. Calm down a bit. Everything’s fine, and Gayoung probably just overused her Ability. You went through something similar on the first day, didn’t you?” “Unnie, please calm down. I used my Ability on Gayoung, and she wasn’t bitten or injured anywhere.” We were the ones who suffered, but Hana stepped forward to calm Seonyoung, who was still crying and touching me with trembling hands.

I’ll explain everything once we’re inside.” We roughly set down the transported supplies in the corridor and all entered our apartment.

There was one unusual zombie and a large number of them, but we managed to fend them off without significant damage because we were close to the Bunker we’d set up earlier.” “No significant damage? Oppa, you’re still bleeding! What happened? I don’t understand… tell me in detail.” “Hmm… we were on our way back, and a horde of zombies chased us from behind. My guess is that a single Leader Zombie was controlling the others.” I explained the situation at the time, along with my conjectures.
