QT: Against My Will

107 3.03.12 – Parasite – Downfall of Humanity

Inside of the military office, behind the desktop computer, Yi Zen, in a clean uniform, was preparing instructions for an upcoming mission.

Receiving a notification, without checking it, he picked up his phone and walked towards the opened window. Leaning against the frame, he took out a packet of cigarettes from his inner pocket. Lighting one up, he placed it against his lips. The wind shifted the smoke outside the window.

Exhaling a circle of smoke, he turned on his phone. If Yi Zen wanted to send a message to Bing Shi, he would have to wait for a specific time of the day, between 8 AM to 9 AM, or else he would receive an error message.

Bing Shi surveyed the attractive man’s expression through the front camera.

‘What’s wrong with this man, does he have facial paralysis?’

‘Was the lovestruck fool I saw during the world story only an illusion?’

Bing Shi: You don’t have to send them anymore.??

Yi Zen: Did you find your boyfriend?

Bing Shi: No. The last man reminded me how I don’t like to force people into anything. ??

.....

Yi Zen: Are you giving up?

Bing Shi: I don’t know. Did you say bye-bye to your family? Are you going to spend the last two months with them? How unlucky to be hit by the bloody rain. But there are some positives too, at least you know which of your men won’t turn into zombies.??

Yi Zen felt a tad skeptical.

Yi Zen: Too busy to visit them.

Bing Shi: Of course, Mr. No-Feelings. When are you going to upgrade to Mr.Yes-feelings???

Yi Zen: Don’t wait for the impossible.

Bing Shi: Come on. Everyone is so bad to me today. At least a little bit of emotion for this poor me.

Yi Zen: You deserved it.

‘Don’t think you are the only one who can provide me with protection. I’m not investing my time in something unprofitable. Now, tell me, are you worth my time? Of course, you are, I want my EP.’

Bing Shi: Nooo, I’m in dire need of positive energy. I need to replenish it. Yi Zen, how about you ask your men to record themselves eating durian? But as a good person, having you eating it is enough. One for all or all for one???

Yi Zen: None.

Bing Shi: Others in my place, would strip you out of clothes, shove you into a pool of mashed stinky durians, and take a picture of you.??

Going along with her gags, he didn’t flare-up.

Yi Zen: Isn’t it what you would do?

Bing Shi: I’m a nice person. I only imagined it in my head. ??

Was she trying to anger him? Make him smile? Yi Zen had no idea, one thing he was sure of was that she was making fun of him. Inhaling the tobacco, he typed on the phone.

Yi Zen: Had enough fun?

Bing Shi: Yes, it’s time for my disappearance. ??

Yi Zen: Where are you going?

Bing Shi: Shopping.

Bing Shi:But I have no money.(′?????`) Yi Zen, give me some cash, please.

He sent a ruthless...

Yi Zen: No.

Bing Shi: Of all types of big brothers, did you have to choose the cold one? ?? Never mind, everything is better than a siscon. I’ll be gone for two months. Don’t miss me. Bye Bye. ??

Bing Shi watched how Yi Zen placed the phone in his hand on the window frame and continued to smoke expressionlessly.

‘He knows that I’m watching him, doesn’t he? Well, that’s the disadvantage of being seen as a hacker.’

Kuro, who came back from a trip, laid on the couch lazily.

[Host, I’m back. How is it going with the male lead?]

Bing Shi waved at Kuro, who responded with its tail.

[“I have no idea how to gain his trust, nor does he know how to gain mine.”]

She leaned against the chair.

[“We decided to force it... by becoming siblings.”]

‘I came up with the idea, and he had to oblige without a choice... hehe...’

[Siblings? Doesn’t it usually start with a friendship or a business partnership?]

[“Siblings, no matter what, are always going to be siblings. You can’t say that about friends.”]

Bing Shi smiled gleefully.

[“I’m attempting to change his mindset into that of an elder brother; anything more is considered incest. One of the quests is to make Yi Zen fall in love. What about the love between siblings?”]

Tip N. 3. What to do If you can’t avoid the male lead? Try to be his sister or brother.

[I don’t know. Nobody tried it before.]

[“No? This idea struck me when I was thinking about a most efficient way, how to combine all the quest and voilà, a monkey spoke up... How was your trip?”]

[Fu Lian finished taking revenge on all the people who mistreated her. Thanks to the healing pond, her psychic power and beauty increased, she has no problem fighting a whole gang.]

Bing Shi let Kuro monitor Fu Lian. In case of an emergency, it could protect her. As for Yi Zen, his instincts were too sharp. Kuro could only hack nearby cameras and his devices.

‘How come only male leads can kill heroines? It seems like no matter how strong the heroine is, the male lead is always one step ahead. They even have a choice who to fall in love with.’

‘Is Yi Zen this world’s son?’

[“They should meet before the apocalypse. Where and when?”]

[A week before the apocalypse, near the borders with country A.]

· · — · ???· — · ·

There was an ongoing dispute between the government and various drug trafficking syndicates. The situation was too dangerous for the police to handle on their own. The authorities had to use the military as support.

Fu Lian, who lived in the south, by sheer coincidence, became a part of the conflict. Knowing that Yi Zen’ll be a powerful person during the apocalypse, she will save the injured man by feeding him the healing water from the pond.

*poof*

Mr. No-feelings would suddenly upgrade into a Mr. Sticky note.

[“Kuro, time to buy anti-dog food googles.”]

Bing Shi walked to the closet and took out a thick black coat. After putting on her boots, she wrapped her neck and mouth with a black scarf and covered her ears with black earmuffs.

Taking her backpack and the luggage, she glanced at the apartment for the last time and locked the door. Counting to ten, she played with the handle to assure herself that it’s closed.

The cold frosty morning attacked her face, as soon as she walked outside. Feeling cold, Bing Shi rushed towards her preheated metallic pink sedan. After throwing her luggage and backpack into the backseat, she started the engine. Looking through the window up at the snowy white sky, a question came up.

‘Is the weather the reason why everyone moved to the south? The story occurred in the southern part of the country, where snow doesn’t fall.’

‘Not speaking about how hard it would be to travel by foot or bike, how do zombies survive during the ice-cold winters? Their flexibility, speed... Except for the high leveled ones, it’d impossible to move in such harsh conditions.’

Shrugging her shoulder, she helped Kuro to put a seatbelt on. Together, they drove towards the airport.

‘Economy class is pure hell.’

Bing Shi, with a frown, poked at the man who was about to fall asleep on her shoulder. “Sir, lean towards the other side, please.”

The man apologized, then a few moments later, he repeated the action.

Bing Shi poked his shoulder again, “Sir, let’s exchange our seats.”

The tired man agreed. After exchanging the seats, the problem stopped.

Kuro LOLed at how fast she resolved the problem.

[Why did you buy the economy class seat?]

[“I have no idea.”]

Bing Shi took a picture of the economy class logo on the ticked and sent it to Yi Zen.

Bing Shi: Because of you, I had to buy an economy class ticket. A man almost left his drool on my delicate shoulder.

Yi Zen: Get used to it. Nobody is going to pamper you in the apocalypse.

‘Just you wait. As soon as I find my Xuan Mu, I’ll tell him you bullied me!’

.....

‘Besides, I have Kuro.’

Bing Shi let Yi Zen think whatever he wanted.
