After a long time, I managed to get in position to the main entrance of the zoo. After the movement of the Behemoth, the monster is about to leave the zoo. The arc that tends to be a welcoming part of the entrance became a place I needed to gain a height to at least reach the Behemoth's arm.

Pulling the AR15, I looked into the scope and glanced on its head which seems to look like it contained something but cannot be usually seen properly. What seemed to be an object floating revealed to be the brain. Sniping it would be easy but that doesn't mean you can kill it. Metal melts in contact with the goo of the monster. Most of them, steel weapons and bullet cases don't reach the brain and gets dissolved before its arrival to the brain. And I doubt that the SDF didn't try that.

The other soldiers are also in position but they are currently eliminating the undead. Luckily for me, this place is not something a person can climb on. I used my grappling hook to properly climb this place and get into the high point. I am nimble enough to climb this place so it is not a problem for me even it is high up to the ground.

I can see on the horizon the black smoke-like things which I am very familiar with. The Mosquitoes. Those bloody mosquitoes are again gathering. They are missing these past days because we have destroyed most of their nests. Now that we are focused on the Behemoth, we have neglected those sh*ts again.

But they are not much of a problem like they are now part of the everyday cycle of the night. What is much dangerous is the Behemoth. There are some undead here and there but they are not much of a threat until the Night Rage. Still, it was much better to kill them to lessen the threat of the Night Rage. I sniped a few while waiting for the commander to issue the command to start throwing the C4. With soldiers here, we can destroy a few parts of the Behemoth before destroying the brain.

As I wait, the radio finally sprung to life.

"Soldiers, we have received the reports that the soldiers deployed to place the C4 are now in position and just needed to wait for the signal. Now that we are now on our attack phase, be ready to see explosions and smoke. We will now begin the confrontation! Release the bombs!"

Before I can prepare, explosions occur below the Behemoth and the road and buildings below it started to cave in. Due to the amount of explosives placed around the perimeter where the Behemoth is, the operation to trap the Behemoth was a success. The behemoth is not a flying monster so when the caved in occurred, the behemoth fell to the hole like a gelatin. The soldiers below also started to throw the C4 to the blob of slime that is struggling to get out of the hole.

I grab my own C4 and remembered the slingshot I made back at school. It is still with me, just that, I don't use it much. It was at rest inside my small belt bag where I put the bullets and small weapons. Grabbing it, I looked below and noticed that the Behemoth is much near in my location and if my timing is right, the C4 I am holding will be able to get to the head of the blob.

The C4 is slowly dissolving inside the body of the Behemoth but that doesn't mean it won't explode. Before the C4 dissolve, the soldiers who hold the detonator pressed their detonators causing the explosion to occur simultaneously.

I can hear the shout of the soldiers who are quickly filling all the remaining C4 to the Behemoth. The behemoth is still struggling to get out while being bombarded by the explosions. I can see that it is getting smaller after the explosions. It is getting weaker but that doesn't mean we can kill it immediately. 

The behemoth still managed to wave around its slime-hands and grab a few soldiers nearby. I haven't thrown my C4 yet because I am observing if the amount of C4 is enough. The explosions are strong enough that I can sometimes see the brain of the Behemoth become vulnerable for a split second there. 

Just when the victory seems within grasp, I noticed that the Behemoth is... multiplying? The blobs of slimes that separated from the main body started to move on their own. I aimed on them using my AR15 and I confirmed that thee separated parts of the Behemoth are also sentient and can move by themselves. Without wasting time, I grab my handheld transceiver and quickly relayed the sight I see.

"Commander, please command the other soldiers to also eliminate the blobs of slimes that came from the parts of the behemoth. I just confirmed that they are sentient and they can potentially become the next behemoth."

"What?! Are you telling the truth?!"

"Yes. I just confirmed it not too long ago. But we shouldn't worry much, the blobs can be killed using normal bullets. Just kill them before they fully mature."

"Alright, I will relay it."

After that, the commander issued for the destruction of the Behemoth's parts. The Behemoth itself is getting smaller too and since most soldiers are now fixated with the parts, I decided to keep my eye on the behemoth using the scope of my AR15. Due to the explosions, the Behemoth has shrunken in size and no longer looks the same as before. The layer of protective slime that is covering its brain is also getting thinner.

There will be nothing wrong if I try to snipe it. I quickly aimed, hold my breath and pulled the trigger. With a loud bang, the bullet released quickly traveled to the trajectory straight to the brain of the behemoth. And to my surprise, the bullet managed to penetrate the monster. However, it is not enough. It is still moving. I aimed at it again and this time, I made sure to target the brain properly. This bullet is for my teacher who sacrificed himself. For Leo, I will be the reaper to deliver the pain to the Behemoth.

BANG!

...

That very day, the reign of terror of the Behemoth ended. However, we are not yet aware that the greatest enemy is not the Behemoth. We have yet to know that the faction of other survivors who has a hostile behaviors are on the move and are planning to reclaim Osaka for themselves. The beginning of our reclamation of Osaka from the dead and the others are now beginning. But for now, our problem is the upcoming Night Rage. As far as I know, there are only 30 minutes left before that accursed time begins.
