'I wonder... can my Eagle Eyes also be used to see my information like these zombies?'
Alex looked away from the zombies in the yard, calming the black tendrils as they hid within his pupil, forming a narrow slit before he activated his "Eagle Eyes" skill on his reflection in the dull, broken mirror.
The moment he did, there was a sudden pain inside his mind; before, he felt vast amounts of information being burned into his brain and displayed in his vision.
"Fuck, it burns!"
Alex 'Sebastian' Faust
-Lesser Ghoul Hybrid: Stage 1
A male 24 years old,
Alex was formerly a pure human and is now a young lesser ghoul hybrid; his main talents are quick reflexes, an agile body, and muscular power. But he lacks willpower and a solid ideology while also being addicted to sex.
-Ghoul infection: Stage 1
Any creature that ingests his flesh or bodily fluids will become infected and slowly transform into a ghoul; this Ghoul can never attack or cause harm to Alex.
However, it won't instantly like, respect, love or be loyal to him either.
-Transformed Ghouls can never surpass their master's evolution stage or power.
-Each time they ingest his bodily fluids, their loyalty will grow a small amount; once it reaches a certain level. They will never betray their master; however, love and affection need to be gained the usual old-fashioned way through communication.
Males will become a monstrous race known as "Vargeist," a devolved type of Ghoul that relies on basic instincts from their previous life and orders from their master.
- Extremely violent
- Ugly
- Gain 3 Points Per level
- Infertile/Impotent
- Strong hunger for flesh and meat
- Weaker than the average human but grow faster.
Females will transform into a Variant Ghoul named "Vesta", becoming more alluring and beautiful, removing all their human scars or imperfections as they become a quarter ghoul while retaining their previous race, able to infiltrate other races for information and finding ideal prey.

"So... I am no longer human; it suddenly happening doesn't feel real like a game..."
Taking a deep breath, his fists tightened, turning his body with a slow, relentless pace towards the door as a group of zombies began to shuffle towards him; he noticed a group of students hiding in a tree to his left a few metres from his dormitories shop.
'I don't want to be a coward, don't want to die... So I will fight, kill my old self if needed! I must become someone else, like in tournaments. Right now, I am Faust, the lesser Ghoul! Faust!'
Alex knew his low willpower was limiting him too drastically; he needed some way to cope and distract his current weak mental state from collapse and took to "Roleplay", which he enjoyed every Thursday with the guys in the dorm as they played Dungeons and Dragons together and would roleplay various characters.
'Let's increase willpower as quickly as possible!'
He pressed open the double doors, and a loud creak sounded as the many corpses turned towards the corpse and began eating in a frenzy; several students took this moment to dash away in the chaos, followed by a large portion of the zombies.
Alex watched as many students seemed wounded, with bright red bandages or clothes used to bandage them.
'Those people are no good; they are already infected.' He thought, looking at their names now with a small (Stage 1 Infected) beside their names when he used "Eagle Eyes" on them.
"Well, I am sure that "Alex" would mourn their deaths," Faust said, now doing his best to act the part, with his hair brushed backwards and a more wild, fierce look on his face.
A chubby boy tried to run past the zombies, not paying attention to his feet, and tripped over the mangled corpse of some random girl before he stumbled and tumbled to the ground with a loud thud.
He tried desperately to get up before shouting.
"Chris, please help me!"
Terror filled his face as a wet stain filled his pants; he looked towards the tree, where several boys and girls looked down with terrified eyes as they shuddered.
Chris looked towards the chubby boy named Paul and saw the zombies behind him; his eyes filled with fear, and he quickly snapped his eyes away, pretending not to hear Paul's trembling cries for help.
"Please, Chris! Claire! Abby! Please help me! I beg you, Anyone!"
The frightened boy howled in terror.
Abby, a short girl with neck length, curly brown hair, and a pretty face with red lipstick and golden earrings, heard Paul's shouts and looked down; her body was tight with a bronze dagger in her hand.
'Scared, but saved her own life, admirable.' Faust thought, moving forward slowly, close to the ground.
Abby looked back, seeing around seven zombies about to attack the boy; her body trembled as she began to wail in the tree, her inner thigh becoming damp with urine before she dropped down and dashed towards the small store and pushed through the barricaded door.
The seven zombies began to devour the poor boy, pinning Paul to the ground as they crazily began to bite him, his wailing voice the only noise that sounded in the area; all the people stuck in the tree trembled and shrieked in fear.
The entire campus was like hell on earth; utter chaos filled every inch; students trampled their lovers and best friends, fleeing in terror as the zombies slowly chased them with endless stamina.
However, the streets outside the campus seemed quite empty until the students began to escape with screams, which like some lure, attracted more and more zombies.
Occasionally, the fallen students began twitching, standing up again with mangled and disfigured bodies as zombies, only to attack their friends in a horrifying cycle.
While this was going on, Faust also watched; however, not from a safe distance; located around 1 metre from the zombies, his body was tensed and ready to lash out; inside the "Alex" in his heart began to feel dread and almost caused Faust to tremble, yet he shook it off.
'I cannot be infected; my wounds will heal. I am a ghoul, not a vulnerable human...'
Quietly, like self-hypnosis, he is fighting against his dwindling willpower, now half empty.
Three of the zombies turned and began to move towards the people in the tree, swaying under them with menacing grey eyes, blood-stained faces and low groans that seemed to affect willpower, like losing sanity value in some games.
Two zombies turned and seemed to sense the presence of a living person, but the fact he became part undead masked him slightly; for the first time, Faust relished being half Ghoul.
Chris seemed to break under the intense situation and his lowering willpower; jumping from the tree, he fell in the wrong way and tumbled into a roll.
Crack, "Argh!" He seemed to have broken his ankle; the loud sound drew five of the seven zombies towards him as they stumbled towards him and crawled away in terror.
Faust ignored this and watched the two that remained eating Paul; almost finished, he decided now was the moment to strike; in unison.
Faust dashed towards the two zombies eating Paul while Claire leapt down from the tree and penetrated one of the rear zombies with a lunging thrust, the bronze tip of her spear tearing through the exposed skull and piercing its brain.
Her long brown hair flowed from her descent, showing her pretty face and the swaying flower ribbon clipped to her.
Claire looked towards Alex with shimmering bright blue eyes, tightening her muscular abs, feeling invigorated by the white light that shot into the couple.
"Alex!" She beckoned with her hands and a light whisper before closing the distance to him; not a stupid girl.
Faust smashed the zombie devouring his thighs with a fierce stomp before shooting a powerful left-jumping knee into the face of the zombie that started to stand up, noticing the two tasty humans that appeared.
Claire was a member of the sports team and martial arts dojo that Sarah's "Normal" family ran. When she spotted Alex, her eyes narrowed, and she felt a sensation of courage fill her almost depleted willpower.
Faust enjoyed gaining another two coins, now a total of seven.

"Help! Claire, Help!"
One of the other students on the tree was being pulled down as a zombie began to bite into the boy's flank, blood and flesh spraying as he squealed like a pig.
Two other boys descended from the tree before one tripped the other by mistake as he slammed his head into a rock with a thud and then started to bleed out.
In horror, the boy stopped escaping and tried to help his friend.
"Help us, Claire! Dave is hurt badly... His head is bleeding! Please!"
Claire looked at the two in horror as she snapped out of her revere from increasing to level 2 and improving her strength.
"Look out!" She shouted; Claire dashed towards the two zombies holding her spear; Faust was a few steps ahead as they struck simultaneously. Alex smashed through one zombie's skull with his fist while crushing another under his foot, while Claire penetrated the other with her spear.
"There were only three... How did so many people die..." Claire muttered with dull eyes as her body trembled with tears dripping from the corners of her eyes.
Despite so many trees on this side of the campus, as the Lone Star City was part of a world reinvigoration movement, those trees couldn't help these three students being torn apart by a mere three zombies...
No wonder the campus was now bathed in rivers of human blood...
Only three zombies had killed over five humans in the space of minutes.
If this is the power of a few, what can the rest of the school students do against the 200,000+ inhabitants of the city?
