Having achieved everything Zain wanted to in the Dark Zombies, he was thinking it was best for him to leave. He needed to increase his territory as well as get his horde members up to the 1000 max limit so he could summon them whenever he wanted.
Also, the more territories he had, the more exp he would gain and continue to grow his army of zombies, because there was still one focus on his mind and that was surviving. They had the demons on their back, and after that even if the demons were dealt with they needed to deal with the rest of the world.
They weren't going to be ready to accept zombies and most likely after the zombies did their part of getting rid of the demons like Humfree hoped, there was a good chance that the army would then just come in and get rid of all the zombies.
This was why Zain wanted to continue to grow his personal zombies. Ones that he had complete control of regardless of what happened. This was the best way to survive.
Zain was leaning up against the window in the ballroom. He was looking at the sky and looking at the moon. Although the zombies were told not to go out at night, that wasn't true for the area they were currently in, they just weren't allowed to go beyond the wall at night.
Although Humfree did say that all of the zombies had freedom while being here, doing such an action would bring trouble to the rest, so he understood why there was that rule.
"I guess it's time for me to meet up with him," Zain said, as he walked out from the ballroom heading towards the back of the main building. Before leaving, he looked at Wendy and the others who were now sound asleep.
'If I was to leave this place, they would be alright now, right? Just because I helped them, doesn't mean they need to be stuck to me like glue. Besides if others or the real enemy were to find out my strength now. There's a good chance they'll be after me, so travelling with me will just put them in more danger.'
Walking down the hallway, Zain looked out the window again before looking at one of the large grandfather clocks. The large bell sound had been removed but the short and large hands were close to the 12 at the top.
Exiting from the back, he carried on walking, as he saw a man in the distance standing where Zain had fought not long ago, not just that, but it was the same person he had fought against.
"There doesn't appear to be anyone out here, is that your doing?" Zain asked.
Turning around, Carl gave a big smile as he saw him.
"I'm not their boss, they have no reason to listen to me."
The words and cheeky smirk didn't quite match up with what he was saying. Either way, Zain was here now. After having completed the master class quest, the least he could do before leaving this place was listen to Carl.
"So what would the strongest in the Dark Zombies want from me then?" Zain asked.
The smile disappeared from Carl's face and he soon got into a fighting stance with his fists in front of his face.
"That is the exact reason why I wanted to call you. Back then, I was unable to fight properly, because the idea was to test out what you had. I never thought that there would be someone out there that was as strong as you.
"So, as for the favour I'm asking from you, I want to fight you now, both of us going all out from the start."
This was a surprise to Zain, he looked at Carl and thought back to the fight. Towards the end of it, Carl was using his full strength; he just got tricked with the summoned zombies. As he said before, if the two of them were to fight with everything they had from the start, Zain was to lose, but that was before, before he had gained the master card.
"And what if you were to lose again?" Zain asked.
"Then it would just mean that I would need to work harder out there to survive." Carl answered.
Based on the answer, Zain was going to decide whether to fight him or not, because he felt like he owed Carl one now, so if beating him would ruin Carl's progression then he would decline the offer, but based on the answer he gave, Carl would just grow stronger from a loss.
"Alright, but the result is going to be a lot more different than you think." Zain said.
Zain lifted his hands and gestured for Carl to come at him, moving his fingers.
"Hey!" Carl said, as he dashed forward his whole body changing to the black armour. "I said to take this seriously from the start."
A punch was thrown out, and immediately Zain moved his head to the side avoiding the blow. As the attack hit the air, a large red pulse was made. Carl was going full strength from the start.
"If I used my full strength from the start, then you would be dead already." Zain answered.
Not believing that to be the case, Carl continued to throw punches out but Zain avoided them all. Even though he didn't have the highest hand to hand combat mastery, he was just too fast and was able to see things too clearly.
The red pulses of power that hit the air, which before made him uneasy and affected him, due to his high endurance they didn't any more.
'I'm punching as fast as I can, how can he avoid them all… what is this!'
That was when Zain decided to not avoid the punch, and instead he went ahead and grabbed hold of Carl's fist. The red pulse went through his hand and Zain's hand wasn't pushed back or injured at all.
"The difference between the two of us is too different now." Zain lifted Carl in the air, and slammed him into the ground. He was unable to see anything and was just staring at the sky as he felt every bone in his back having been destroyed.
"I… lost." Carl said.
