Chapter 89: Chatting with the Undead

Exhausted from his long walk, Ryo decided to take a break at a nearby abandoned restaurant. He sat down in one of the chairs, pretending to order food even though he knew no one would be there to serve him.

With a mix of sadness and resignation, Ryo started a conversation with the zombies nearby, treating them as friends. "Hey, how's it going?" he asked, his voice reflecting his weariness. "Another day in this crazy world, huh?" He chuckled bitterly, his eyes scanning the mindless creatures shuffling around him.

The zombies, unaware of his words, continued their aimless wandering, their moans and growls providing a somber backdrop to the one-sided conversation. Undeterred by their lack of response, Ryo continued, finding solace in the pretense of company.
