*here the chapter*
As Zack finished the Giant Grimm after taking down its minions, the sensation of his semblance is going haywire again but this time it was stronger.
He felt like saying something so he let his instinct dictate from now.
Zack approached a decaying body of a stray Grimm, placed his hand on the body while his greenish-blue Aura manifesting all on its covering every part of his body then as if something happened, his Aura went in to the body he's touching and he felt a very strong urge to say something as it felt that he could only do this if its a dead body and as for Grimm's body, It disintegrates into a black miasma of smoke so he didn't have a lot of time.
Zack said something the first thing he could think of was.
"AWAKEN"
As soon as he said it, his Aura burst all other near Grimm and then something started to move but it wasn't the body that moved, it was something coming out from their decaying body.
A hundred greenish-blue clawed hands made from the dark mixed in with my Aura started to emerge from every one of them that his Aura touched. They all looked like the Beowolves that he just killed but the difference is that their white bone masks from before became greenish-blue as well some part of their body, something like this shouldn't be possible.
He took his battle stance again in case they started attacking again but they didn't move from their spot and just looked at me with their greenish-blue eyes.
Zack slowly relaxed his stance and approached the nearest one to him. He quickly tapped its shoulder and then retreated just as quickly as he looked for a reaction but it didn't still do anything, it just kept on staring at Zack.
"Okay, I know I am handsome but you can't keep on staring at me as this" Zack said jokingly trying to relax his nerves.
"..."
"Nothing? Alright, but what are you guys anyway? You came out like a specter from my kills, wait… don't tell me!!" Zack widens his eyes as he finally thinks of something.
"You… are all of you, ghosts?!" Zack yelled while pointing his finger at them all.
"..."
"Hmm no reaction, maybe something else…" Zack contemplated as he placed his hand on his chin.
"Let's see here, you all came out after I killed all you so... there's only one thing that points out to this impeccable answer and that is all you guys are…!!!" Zack faced them again and pointed his finger at them again.
"Zombies!!" Zack made a eureka moment while facing them all.
This time the Greenish-blue Beowolves did something.
"..." All of them looked at Zack then tilted their heads to the sides like they were looking at a dumbass.
Zack suddenly remembered something before he reincarnated in this universe, that old creepy guy *Ouch*, he forgot that he always gets a headache every time he thinks about that guy but remembered that guy gave him something. 'Is this it?'
"Hmm, if you all came to be because of me, maybe you all are mine to command… Oh, well, I ain't losing anything from trying," Zack thought out loud.
Zack faced them, found his inner Sephiroth voice, and said,
"Kneel"
Instantly, every one of them kneeled in front of him as they looked like my personal minions. The thought of using his minion to make them... buy his chocolates, clean his Fenrir and his swords, and most importantly, he can finally have a real sentient guard protecting his chocolates, it was a tantalizing thought for Zack but he suddenly thought of something.
"If they came from Aura after killing them, does that mean, this... might be the semblance I received for the guy who brought me here"
"If this is my semblance, making dead Grimms I killed become zombies at my command then I wonder…" Zack said thoughtfully as he gazed back at the Giant Grimm's body.
"Hmm, but I feel I should let some of them go if I'm going for the big guy," Zack said as he commanded a quarter of them should dissipate.
Zack came forward to the Giant Grimm, placed both of his hands on its body, flared his Aura for a bit, and said,
"AWAKEN"
"..."
But nothing happened, it looked like it was fighting his will.
Zack seeing this thought back from when he was fighting it earlier, the aggressive behavior, the disdain on humans, and its condescension to the weak.
He thought that even if this Giant Grimm has some intelligence, he finally concluded that this thing is still just a giant... a-hole.
Zack has a simple principle in life, if you meet an a-hole, the simplest way to deal with them is to become an even bigger a-hole.
So, Zack put more Aura into it like he was a Super Sa*yan, commanded with greater authority, and then yelled loudly.
"AWAKEN NOW YOU LITTLE PIECE OF SH*T!!"
"..."
Suddenly the ground he stood on shook as a big greenish-blue bone claw erupted from its body.
"Huh, didn't think that would've worked, who knew right?" Zack thought out loud.
Soon enough, the giant Grimm fully formed in front of him, nothing much was different except for the greenish-blue that replaced it bone-white color for some of its parts.
It stood tall over Zack as it looked down on him but then it kneeled in front of him.
He suddenly felt a bit weaker just now, he felt that it took a quarter of his aura just to awaken this giant grim.
"Hmm, I think I'm going to name you… Fang"
The Giant Grimm seriously nodded but on its back, its tails were wagging from side to side as it showed how happy it is.
Zack looked back at the 75 Greenish-blue Beowolves and thought about giving them their names too so he named them B1, B2, B3, B4, and so on.
…
While Zack was busy tending to his new army, he still didn't realize that the Queen of Grimms, Salem, was still watching him.
Salem looked like a white-haired pale beautiful woman with just the right proportion in all the right places but, only if one ignored her black sclera instead of a normal white added with her creepy red-blood eyes, and in her arms were like black tattoos like-vines.
She was shocked seeing this as this was impossible, bringing something from the dead, she knew because she already tried it in the past and this form is her punishment and now someone did it without paying so much as a price.
She was pissed, frustrated, and… jealous.
She felt betrayed by her beliefs, all this while she spent her immortality believing if you die, there's no coming back well except maybe Ozma but that was the work of those blasted brothers.
But here she is, seeing some random young man reviving an already dead Grimm by just flaring his aura and yelling for it to be awakened.
The absurdity of this notion is just ridiculous by itself and here she was seeing an impossible.
She suddenly got a devious idea as she called her one her loyal devotees.
"Tyrian, drop everything I tasked you and I need you right here, now" Salem called out as a portal showing a man with yellow crazy eyes with braided long brown hair at his back.
"Right away my Queen, I will be there as soon as I can" Tyrian instantly answered as he bowed in the portal until she cut the connection.
She then resumed watching the young man talking with his new Beowulf's army.
"That's right, soon, that power will be mine to command as I can finally show those two stupid brothers what I think about their balance and show Ozma how foolish for him to defy me again," Salem said as she tightened her fist with an excited grin.
Salem then relaxed her nerves as she calmly assessed this young man.
"And if I can't have it, then I'll get the next best thing," Salem said as she hungrily took in Zack's figure with a creepy smile.
"Go on, young one, show me something new again," She said while watching Zack like a predator.
…
Back to Zack's location.
Zack, who was talking to B7 and B8 about their daily cleaning duties, suddenly stopped as he shivered again.
He was already an expert at this point in sensing this kind of thing but for the life of him still doesn't know what exactly it is. He tried asking Taiyang and Qrow about it once but they said they never felt anything like that, the feeling of a predator on your back but not exactly emitting any killer intent.
But the weird thing back then, after Qrow disappeared for a week because his 'Girlfriend' took him to go on a vacation.
The very day he came back, he hugged Zack the instant he saw him and looked at him with pity in eyes for a month but the thing he said the most impactful to him back then was that if Zack ever feels what he described to them back then, that he should change his home, name, face and if possible his DNA as well and get the hell out of there, If not but Qrow didn't continue anymore as he had these blank eyes like he was reliving a nightmare on the spot.
Zack never took that advice to heart as he always felt like that when he was showering and sometimes sleeping back then at Patch but nothing ever happened to him so he never did anything and took Qrow's warning as one his old man ramblings.
But now, out in the open, and the feeling was stronger this time.
Zack felt like he was naked in front of someone but he can't see anyone other than his minions, thus, he finally felt fear like there's something inevitable coming for him.
Zack immediately hopped in his motorcycle as his minions instinctively turned into shadows and attached themselves to him.
Zack didn't want to become like Qrow, knowing him to be like that, something traumatizing must have happened to him and he didn't want to test that out with himself, so the second he felt that he rode his motorcycle as its time to get out here as soon as possible.
…
Salem's castle
"Well well, it seems he sensed me and that scared him away but that won't do, I still want to see more if there's anything else you might show me," Salem said as she looked at his pale and panicking face.
Salem commanded another Giant Grimm to rise and do her bidding.
*Boooom* *ROOOOAAAAAARRRR!*
"Go, fight this young man right now," Salem said with authority.
*GGGGRRRRR* ROOAAAAAARRRR*
"C'mon young man, I know you have some more things you can entertain me with," Salem said gleefully while her face has a scary excited look.
