Chapter 1592: Nightmare Space: The Net Is Closing! (5/5, Request Subscription)

A crowbar shot like an arrow, pinning a three-meter-tall mutated zombie to the ground.

Touma Kazusa moved with fluid grace, descending lightly from several meters above like a cat, making not a single sound.

She stepped forward skillfully, shook the crowbar, and instantly the struggling mutated zombie's neck snapped, falling silent.

"So amazing!"

Far away, Miyamoto Rika, Doku-shima Sae, Kurakawa Shizuka, and Komizono Yuki all gazed at her with worshipful eyes.

It was utterly shocking.

Touma Kazusa's performance wasn't human.

You should know that mutant zombies aren't just physically massive—their speed and strength are terrifyingly powerful too.

Even a cement-and-steel wall a foot thick could be smashed through.

Facing such inhuman mutated creatures, Touma Kazusa defeated them effortlessly.

This couldn't be explained by skill alone.

Komizono Yuki brought up the old theory again—Touma Kazusa must be a hidden sword saint in the city.

This theory gained approval from Doku-shima Sae, Kurakawa Shizuka, and the others.

Otherwise, there was no way to explain how absurdly powerful Touma Kazusa was.

At this point, seven days had passed since the group left campus.

After seven days, their mission progress was extremely favorable.

Komizono Yuki, rarely, completed her first mission: slaying one thousand zombies.

Touma Kazusa 733 not only completed her first mission but also just finished the mutated zombie slaying task.

Coupled with protecting the protagonist's team, this Nightmare mission had left Touma Kazusa thoroughly rewarded.

As for investigating the bio-origin, neither of them had any idea where to start, so they never attempted it.

After all, Nightmare Space missions weren't mandatory.

Besides, Touma Kazusa hadn't forgotten she was a member of the chat group.

She joined this Nightmare mission solely to uncover the black hand behind Nightmare Space.

【Ding, Nightmare Mission countdown: 3600s.】

Touma Kazusa flicked the crowbar in her hand and looked at Komizono Yuki.

"It's time to end this!"

Both their expressions relaxed.

Doku-shima Sae frowned: "Is something happening?"

Touma Kazusa nodded: "We're leaving."

"Leaving?" Doku-shima Sae froze, and recalling their extraordinary feats, a terrifying thought struck her.

Perhaps neither of them were students here.

After all, the inconsistencies were too many.

"Will you come back?" Doku-shima Sae felt deeply reluctant.

These days, though the world had ended, were the most carefree she'd ever known.

No restrictions, free to slash anyone she wanted.

In a world of order, she'd never have such freedom.

Touma Kazusa shook her head: "I don't know. Come on, let's help you carry some food back."

Komizono Yuki nodded softly, following behind Touma Kazusa like a little attendant.

Her feelings were strangely mixed.

In the last mission, she had been nothing but a trembling newbie hiding in the shadows.

Now she had become a savior-like figure.

Life truly was unpredictable.

With Touma Kazusa's help, the group loaded a truck with rice, flour, and bottled water from a supermarket and returned to base, filling everyone with joy.

But when they learned Touma Kazusa was leaving, their spirits sank.

Hadn't their survival until now been thanks largely to the two of them?

Now that they were leaving, didn't that mean this peaceful life would vanish forever?

Even Shitsuro Takashi felt uneasy now.

An hour wasn't long.

Amid the group's anxious emotions, time felt like it flew by.

Touma Kazusa and Komizono Yuki suddenly exchanged glances.

The next instant, their figures dissolved into light and vanished before everyone's eyes.

"Leaving?"

"So this is how they leave?"
