(Kyosei's View)

The battle against the horde of blobby jellies are done at an hour. It was pretty taxing and sweat falls on my face and my clothes are drenched in sweat. I can also smell the slight tinge of the gas in my sweat, maybe due to the fact that I used gas to release a strong flame or to the leakage of gas from the bottles of Molotov Cocktails that I have thrown earlier that has spilled either on my clothes or my hands. In any case, it made the smell a bit bad to me.

I returned to the car while dumping the flamethrower above the Ford Ranger due to the tip still flaming hot. I exhaustively opened the door and slumped into my seat.

"You stink..." Satsuki said as I returned.

"Shuddup, you would also be stinky if you are in my situation. Next time, I would be appointing you to be the one doing the job,"I said in a serious tone.

"What?! Seriously? No! No!" Satsuki grumbled.

"Che, I am just joking..." I said to her without breaking a smile.

Satsuki who is currently grumbling and ready to throw a tantrum stopped and looked at me.

"Huh? What did you say?" Satsuki asked.

"I am just joking, you think I am serious?" I looked at her with surprise.

Suddenly, Kaito gave a surprised exclaim.

"Oh sh*t! Did he just get a heatstroke? Satsuki! Give me a wet towel so that he can cool down himself!" Kaito panicked.

"Is the world going to end? Oh, it already ended but it might be starting again! We need to inform the others!" Satsuki suddenly pull out my radio transceiver and contacted the others.

"Guys! Kyosei said a joke!"

I shook my head while frowning. These guys won't be responding to a ridiculous claim. But I was wrong.

Nanami: What?! Did he get a fever?!

Miyuki: Hey! A Joke? Are you serious? That is impossible!

Cindy: Am I dreaming? How come I felt that its impossible?

Chie: This is scientifically an error! I can't give a good calculation on what you just said. As all I can say, that was not literally going to happen!

Okabe: Oy, does that mean Kyosei stopped becoming a serious sh*t?

Souichi: What the heck. I just woke up but I think I am still dreaming.

Shu: Is that really Kyosei? I think he is being possessed by someone else!

Pastor Shin: Kyosei, may your soul be blessed. Do not give in and fight the demon within you that made you do some ridiculous actions!

Yumi: Onii-chan! You need to rest! Don't overwork yourself!

Eve: Daddy? Did you just eat something funny?

Snow: Does Kyosei's joke funny? I guess I am also curious.

Laika: Woof woof! Bark! Woof! (A/N: Literal translation: Even though I am just a dog, I can't understand how he can tell a joke, woof!)

Sena: The heck! You demon don't have a hobby of giving a joke at all!

...

Everyone of them are giving out comments and even Tamaki and Shiemi has given me an outrageous comment. F*ck, do you think I won't flip the table?!

"F*ck! You all are assigned to be on the flamethrower job next time! This time, I am not joking!"

...

After a few more hours, we arrived in Tennoji Area. Just like how the area around the convenience store, the buildings has been covered with the same slime that covered the buildings near the convenience store. I frowned on these things.

"The path where the Behemoth passed had been a very dangerous place right now. Should we look for a good route to avoid these slimes?" Kaito asked.

"Yeah, find an alternate route. We can't afford to pass by on these harmful things. The slimes are always a bother," I said.

We moved on roads and reroute ourselves whenever we saw a place covered with too much slime. But as soon as we arrive on the vicinity of the Tsutenkaku tower, the bad smell of the dead wafted in the air, making me wanted to puke. Its a very heavy smell that I don't think I can stand it. Even Kaito and Satsuki covered their noses.

"Damn it, too many corpses. Cover your noses before the bad smell causes illness to us!" I commanded.

The cars moved forward and had a trouble moving forward due to the slouchy texture of the dead bodies on the road. It was clear that the place became a graveyard of the infected. Its a very sad place. Much sadder than the saddest genre of movies.

We moved out of the buses and decided to walk forward. We also saw the soldiers on the fence with tired look on their faces. We have finally arrived on the bottom of the Tsutenkaku Tower.
