Shut-In Of The 'Dead'

Bronze WINNER of WPC#322: Male Lead: Zombie Invasion Takemi Kazuichi might very well be the luckiest and unluckiest person in the world. He was an orphan, and he was severely bullied in school. Because of that, he became a hikikomori, a shut-in. When he turned sixteen, he was adopted by a rich couple who loved him as if he was their own son. Unfortunately, they died in a plane crash, and Kazuichi never overcame his bad habits of being a shut-in, largely because of his preying relatives. Fast forward to four years later, Takemi Kazuichi still stayed in the house left by his late parents. He never bothered going to work or going out to socialize with people. For the lack of a better term, he was a rich hikikomori. He never even bothered to check the news or log in on any social media. All he did was live his life in solitude, devoid of any human interaction. One day, as he came out of the shower, he heard a strange thumping sound by the doorway. "That's weird, I didn't order any delivery today." He told himself before absent-mindedly opening the door. And what stared back didn't resemble a human at all. It was a zombie— or so that's what the first thing that came into Kazuichi's mind. Unbeknownst to him, the world had drastically changed, and he was the last one to know.

Hybrid Level and Blood Arts

Now that they finally got the respite they so rightfully needed, Kazuichi sat down beside Arisu so he could learn more about the strange phenomenon that occurred in his body.

Arisu assured him that the bloating and the sudden spike in power were normal, but this was the first time Kazuichi encountered something like that, that's why he felt weirded out by it. Obviously, it was a visible change so anyone who witnessed it would start asking questions.

"That's called a Blood Art," Arisu mentioned. "As I mentioned before, the Hybrid rankings could be divided in Roman Numerals, and the more powerful you are, the greater your Blood Art is. We call it Blood Art, but essentially, it's just the body utilizing the zombie virus and squeezing out power from it.."
