Chapter 5 - chapter 5: just how many are you all

she spoke with her usual raspy voice.

"I thought you're a zombie with how skinny you are"

I just smiled and said, "what are you doing outside defenseless?"

I said curiously.

she replied, "well what's the use in it for me if there's no zombie in this whole apartment."

I don't know what the landlord ment by what she said, and asked her again.

"did you happen to get the blue panel?..."

her eyes widened and questioned me.

"little man how did you know?"

it answers my hypothesis that the zombie that flew earlier is caused by this grumpy old woman.

before I can even ask her again she answered as if reading my mind.

"it's called landlord it allows me to protect one building of my choice along with the working electricity, foods and many more. but I need a crystal for me to do that. so far I have old found 3 low cores but it's enough to power this entire building for go knows how much long."

my jaw dropped, "is having superpowers that common?"

she continued. "the crystals can be found in those nasty thing's head." she said while pointing at the zombies head.

I carefully walked over, the claws of the fidero is so sharp that I need to carefully walk.

finally in beside it now, I poked it with my broom and it no longer twitches.

the little fidero is vibrating as if it wants to devour this nasty thing.

I carefully picked him up and slowly put him in the ground.

the landlord said, "is that thing safe to keep"

I just said "yes" and gestured the little thing to do the deed fast.

it poked the zombies head first, and then slowly it opened it's huge mouth.

then "chomp!" the whole head got eaten by the little fidero.

It continued to eat it more. we watched as it slowly devoured the zombie.

then it stopped, it let out a cute burp but I'll say that face isn't cute now is it?.

before we can even approached the head and get the crystal the fidero lit up with a blue light.

it's shining as if it's evolving like a Pokemon.

[the fidero evolved

low rank= intermediate rank

congratulations it learned a new magic:

parasitized (B)

-the entity can go inside the animal,humanoid and other sorts of life forms and control it as if it's their own

-the strength and intelligent is based on what the entities parasitized. let's say for example the parasite parasitized Einstein then the parasite will get his intelligence and physical body.

-the entity cannot go outside the parasitized body, unless it is completely destroyed.]

the once pale fidero have now have dark spots all around its body.

giving it more distinc appearance than the ordinary ones.

"that's a lot of happenings just for a simple appearance" the landlord said while pointing at the fidero.

I gestured it to comeback in my arms, and it run like a child running to it's mother.

I put it on top of my head.

the landlord carefully walked to the zombie, "I'm surprised this old woman can still walk without a cane" I whispered even let out a chuckle.

she bent down and carefully examine the bitten zombie. and found out there was no crystal inside.

she stood up and said, "your pet had eaten the crystal"

I looked at fidero and whispered, "can this fidero even digest it?"

I brushed it off because this abomination just ate a part of the zombie it wouldn't make sense for it to not digest a single crystal.

"growl" my tummy growled as loud as it can be. "hey we just eat earlier what's with the growling" I whispered.

the old woman upon hearing this gestured for me to follow her. I did as instructed and walked behind her back.

we're walking throughout the corridor our footsteps are unnervingly echoing throughout the floor.

finally we have reached the room it was covered in red shield making it look special than the other blue shield enveloping the entire apartment.

the old woman walked in without any casualties but I bumped into something.

it seems that the red shield is protecting the woman's room.

upon seeing this the landlord clicked something. and then the red shield which I can't pass through earlier is now accessible.

I walked right inside and it's complete different from outside.

the entire room was colored pink along with the sofas and other furniture.

the landlord gestured for me to sit in the sofa and then it something magical happened.

out of the thin air products scattered everywhere, well not exactly everywhere in just exaggerating it but still it's 10 products in total it's total luxury in apocalypse.

the old woman left quietly leaving me in the room alone with the fidero.

I put the fidero in the sofa and it seems to be sleeping already.

a deep sigh came out of my mouth and whispered, "is this the feeling of being a parent?"

I picked a chocolate bar from the pile and opened it. the rich scent of cocoa filled the air,

and for a moment, I forgot the chaos outside.

I slowly put it in my mouth and took a very big bite out of it. "chomp"

it was rich and still cold, the inside is caramel with it is covered in wafer along with the chocolate coating it.

I couldn't resist the temptation anymore and took another big bite.

before I knew it it was all gone, even the crumbs in my shirt isn't to waste either.

while I was picking up the crumbs one by one the blue panel chimed in.

[is the chocolate that delicious for you to eat that crumbs? Aww our poor host has nothing to eat]

Before I can even reply another panel

appeared it was veridia.

[You're so childish brother]

Aquarim barked, [hey who told you to go in here]

And then another one appeared, it was red like a blood and has the devilish tail giving it distinct appearance.

[How dare you two escape from the chores?]

This is so confusing and I hesitantly asked, "just how many of you are there?!"
