Mark blankly stared at the laughing Freed. Even though he was mostly smiling all this time, this was the first time he actually laughed. Although it felt like Freed was making fun of what he had just said, he just let him laugh out loud.

"You don't have to apologize. Yeah, it was kind of hard living like everything had forsaken me. But, I'm not alone now. Also… If I did die back then, I won't be able to enjoy myself in an apocalyptic world like this."

Those words made Freed laugh even more.

"Yeah right. You're a zombie survival fan after all. That's where the two of us are different. I longed for peace and you longed for chaos."

"Yet, you chose me out of all people in the world."
