Doomsday Life Simulator System In A Zombie Apocalypse World Update Era-Chapter 54: Zenith

[’Is it because Scarlet knew Jade and I weren’t normal humans that she’s more inclined to join us?’]

[You felt that it made sense considering you and Jade not only were powerful, but weren’t clearly ordinary humans.]

[It was due to being High Humans that you and Jade exude a domineering aura and presence that showed you both were higher existences.]

[It was to the point that Scarlet mistook you and Jade for a divine existence.]

[’Since Jade and I aren’t ordinary people, Scarlet believed that we’d be willing to accept her side of being a werewolf.’]

[’After all, extraordinary individuals can accept those who are also extraordinary compared to those who are ordinary.’]

[Knowing that, you shifted your attention to the train naming feature.]

{Zayne: Jade, what do you think we should name the train?}

{Jade: I’m fine with any name you think of as long as it ain’t weird.}

{Zayne: How about Zenith then? It’s a word that starts with the first letter of my name, and it symbolizes our train reaching the zenith of existence.}

{Jade: Zenith... That sounds good! We’ll name it that way!}

[After you and Jade decided the train’s name, you both heard a notification sound.]

[-Ding!] 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

{Train Conductors Zayne Voss and Jade Willows’ train will now be referred to as "Zenith"!}

{Any system notification referring to the train of said Train Conductors in a certain manner will now call it Zenith instead of just "train".}

[After that matter was done, which only took a few seconds, you shifted your attention back to Scarlet.]

["Scarlet, now that you are one of us, don’t be shy to state any requests. After several hours from now, we will leave this world, and we might never return to this world."]

["If you have any lingering attachments or regrets that are left unfulfilled, it’s the time to state them before we leave."]

[Hearing your words made Scarlet understand what you mean.]

[According to her, the World Will had informed her of the common sense of the Train Survival World and the matter of being a train occupant.]

[One such matter was that train occupants couldn’t harm or betray the Train Conductors.]

[In return, the Train Conductors couldn’t do anything against the will of the train occupant. But the right to kick and abandon the train occupant was still retained by Train Conductors.]

[For train occupants to truly have no rights, a special contract was needed when recruiting such train occupants.]

[In a Quest-Type Station such as this one, which yielded the possibility of recruiting a train occupant, the contract signed was more of an equality contract and not a master and slave contract.]

[Because of that, Scarlet retained her autonomy and couldn’t be forced to do things she didn’t want to.]

[Knowing that you and Jade were her only allies in this world, Scarlet didn’t hesitate to request, "Can you assist me in killing the clergy from the Church of Light?"]

[Clenching her fist in anger, Scarlet continued, "Those damn hypocrites did whatever they wanted and committed countless atrocities yet whitewashed themselves by saying it was all god’s will."]

["I still remember they had executed werewolves and other races that aren’t humans, calling them ’nonhumans’ or ’monsters’."]

["They didn’t even spare some innocent women who they branded as witches, and they were burned at the stake."]

[Recalling such a terrible memory that truly disgusted her, Scarlet trembled in disgust as she gritted her teeth and spoke, "I couldn’t do anything at that time to save them since I was powerless."]

["But now, I realized I couldn’t do it alone since they used the townspeople as hostages and used the Hunter Coalition as fodder to do their bidding."]

[In response to Scarlet’s words, Jade couldn’t help but ask, "Can’t you just kill them? Since they dared offend you, they have already forfeited their right to live."]

["There’s no benefit in being selfless. You are only hurting yourself. Since they dared harm you and had the intention of killing you, then you should reciprocate and kill them."]

["In this world, those who dared to kill should have already prepared themselves to be killed in return."]

["Although some of the hunters and townspeople are victims, it’s better to kill by mistake than risk your own death."]

[Hearing Jade’s words, Scarlet looked to be deep in thought, seemingly considering the plausibility of it.]

[You looked at Jade with a bewildered gaze, thinking, ’Wait, Jade, aren’t you too bloodthirsty? You used the word ’kill’ several times in that message.’]

[’Although I agree with what you said, but at this rate, aren’t you tainting Scarlet?’]

[Jade seemed to notice your gaze and merely replied with a look of "I got this under control".]

[However, contrary to your expectations, Scarlet eventually shook her head, "I can’t bring myself to kill them."]

["I know some of them, as when I was a kid, I had played with the town children and was familiar with their families. I still find it difficult to bring myself to end their lives, especially when they’re also victims manipulated and incited by the clergy."]

["I believe the Church of Light is the root of all evil, and as long as they are uprooted and killed, then I won’t have to implicate the townspeople and hunters."]

[Hearing Scarlet’s words, Jade no longer insisted, and you also didn’t refuse.]

[Whether Scarlet was wrong or not didn’t matter to you and Jade.]

[What mattered was that it was Scarlet’s first ever request after becoming your train occupant, so you and Jade didn’t mind fulfilling it.]

[You nodded at Scarlet, "Then we’ll assist you in exterminating the Church of Light. We forgot to inform you, but Jade and I are High Humans."]

["Just like how pure-blooded dragons can exert bloodline pressure on wyverns and mixed-blood dragons, I can also exert bloodline pressure on normal humans."]

["As long as those clergymen are humans, they’ll have to bow and kneel to Jade and me before their lord god."]

[You assured Scarlet, "Leave it to Jade and I."]
