Chapter 133
133 3.09.38 – My ability – Downfall of Humanity
Bing Shi nodded her head. “Someone else should be taught a lesson too,” she looked at the soldiers, “What would you do if a bully destroyed your precious car?”
“Blow up his car!”
“Fuck his mother!”
“Steal his girlfriend!”
Bing Shi grinned at Ren Han, “What about you?”
“...f...tsk....” Ren Han’s mouth twitched. He had nothing against her. Even her little lie about her barrier and Kuro was nothing.
Was her plan the same as his? To take full control of the army?
As of now, soldiers had no choice. They had to listen to their general’s orders, even if the general or his future wife bullied them. Luckily, they were not blind. Their opinion was changing; witnessing the rivalry between the top leaders, their hearts were slowly changing sides. For whom? That was a secret, only they knew.
‘Dear God, isn’t he sixteen?! If I didn’t have years of training with Xuan Mu, I’d be doomed...’
.....
Due to Bing Shi’s message at lunch, Yi Zen became a bit confused. Was she and Ren Han helping him to get Fu Lian by being a bully, or not? But it seemed to be working. His little kitten was not refusing his touches as before.
In the evening, soldiers arrived in the city to help the citizens with the bodies. After the burial, Bing Shi was asked to give an unannounced speech the next day.
Bing Shi looked down at the microphone in her hand with her mouth agape. Then up at the sobbing people, at the soldiers, and the rest of the base. “Are you sure? It’s hard to come up with something on the spot. I don’t want to embarrass myself.” Asking for help, she had no idea how to make a eulogy.
Everyone nodded; they had no idea that Bing Shi was the last person who should be given this task.
“Ehm,” Bing Shi took a deep breath, “Maybe it will sound foolish, but I can feel your suffering. Whoever said that this pain I’m feeling will ever go away, clearly doesn’t know what it means to live without a loved one. I had one too. He was my compass, my companions my serenity, but death took him away... Never succumb to such a horrible thing without a good fight even though nobody can win against death. It’s not fair. You fight. You fight until you can’t go anymore, and at the end of the day, you can prolong the battle for the next few decades...at most,” She stopped for a moment, “Yeah, I hate death, so I’ll continue to live for as long as I can because sooner or later I’ll meet up with my loved ones.” She thought about how to finish it, “May all of us rest in peace.”
*Silence with occasional coughing and awkward laughter.*
“Is your boyfriend dead?” someone asked out of curiosity.
Bing Shi was about to leave, “Of course not. I see him in the light that fills my eyes each morning.”
*Silence*
Her speech was...ehm...it was sad, cheerful yet depressing. Simply realistic.

Inside the military truck, Yi Zen had his right hand around his kitten; turning his head, he raised his eyebrow at the other person next to him, who was hugging her snake, “What day is today that you decided to drive my car instead of Ren Han’s?”
Bing Shi caressed Kuro’s skin, “I missed Kuro.”
Yi Zen watched their precious interaction, “What about me?”
Bing Shi put Kuro’s head on her shoulder, “What’s there to miss? You are boring and not cute at all.”
“...” Yi Zen coughed up and turned his head back to his kitten, “Do you think the same?”
Fu Lian nodded her head quietly, “He can be cute at times.”
Bing Shi threw Kuro into the air, “If my boyfriend was rich, handsome, and powerful, I’d think he is cute too. Who cares if he is disrespectful towards me.” Reaching her hands up, she caught Kuro.
Fu Lian, “Are you talking about us?”
Bing Shi looked up at the man, whose chilling aura was seeping out of his veins, she grabbed Kuro and pushed it against his face, “Yes.”
Yi Zen, grabbed Kuro’s head, leaning down, he hugged Fu Lian, “She is badmouthing us. Do you want me to teach her a lesson?”
Bing Shi spoke in a threatening voice, “Let go off Kuro this instant... I have a whole city in my disposition, and I’m not afraid to use it.”
Seeing the struggling Kuro in his grip, Fu Lian shook her head, “I don’t want to bring you any problems.”
Today’s Ren Han, and now Bing Shi... Would he go so far for her?
Yi Zen let go of Kuro’s head, “As you wish.”
[“Are you alright?”]
[I’m fine.]
The whole drive back was silent.

Back at the base, the soldier who was inside a truck whispered. “Was Bing Shi in a bad mood?” he asked the soldier next to him. Why did she attack their general?
The soldier shook his head, “I have no fucking idea. And at this point, I’m too afraid to ask.”
There was some conspiracy going on.
They saw the citizens. Bing Shi bought them all on her side. If something happened to Bing Shi, ten thousands of people would go after their necks. What could two hundred soldiers do? With Ren Han on her side, they couldn’t tell what tactics they’d come up with. Their general was powerful but not omnipotent.
While discussing new tactics inside a tent, Yi Zen got a message.
Bing Shi: How did I do?
Yi Zen: Average.
Bing Shi: And Kuro?
Yi Zen: The best.
Bing Shi: I want two sweet potatoes. Purple ones. And a white mouse toy for Kuro.
Yi Zen: Can’t you be more specific?
A drone pilot rushed inside of the tent, “Zombies destroyed our drones with their abilities!”
“What!?!?”

Due to the complications with evolved zombies, the recruitment had to be postponed for the time being.
Bing Shi nodded her head. “Someone else should be taught a lesson too,” she looked at the soldiers, “What would you do if a bully destroyed your precious car?”
