Chapter 30: University

Wain came out of the store and headed in the direction of the university. He already knew the way, so he got to the right place in just a couple of minutes.

There were many monsters around the university as before, but the passages were locked, and so far, the monsters couldn't break through them. Wain needed to get to the university. There was no point in him fighting the zombies.

He had a plan to do it. He quickly ran forward, straight toward the crowd of zombies. When the monsters spotted him and turned in his direction, Wain jumped high and went over their heads. His speed and skill were enough to do it. Then when he got close to the fence, he jumped from behind all his strength while cracking the zombie's head open and climbed on top.

"Hmm, where exactly should I go? Where is the Gisle group?" Mumbled Wain looking at the university.

There were many buildings on the campus, but two particularly large buildings were the main ones. Wain realized that Gisle was probably somewhere there. But, he could not look all over the university.

However, Gisle had provided for that. In the distance, near the entrance to the west building, Wain saw Rita. This girl was making sure the monsters didn't break-in.

Wain smiled and headed towards the girl. Rita quickly spotted Wain and smiled. Even though Wain was rough and cold, he seemed cool and strong to her. She wasn't wrong, though.

"Wain!" Rita said loudly. They were worried that he wasn't coming back. They needed such a strong ally, so for the last hour, Gisle had been very worried.

Wain nodded quietly and asked, "Where's Gisle?"

The girl frowned a little but then answered, "He's on the first floor right now, getting ready for an attack."

"Attack? There are plenty of monsters around, but they're weak. It doesn't look like they'll break through the barricades anytime soon." Slightly surprised, Wain said.

Rita shook her head, "He's getting ready to fight the students from the east corps. Gisle became our leader, but only half of the students decided to follow him. The rest have joined Rafe Mason. He is the head of the eastern corps. Gisle wanted to join forces, but Rafe was serious. He wants to be in charge here and then deal with the monsters afterward."

"Is he strong?" Wain asked.

Rita nodded, "Yes, that's why so many have followed him. What's more, as far as I know, he's been secretly involved in underground fights, in a secret arena near the uni. Tourists often visit Overion to relax on the beach, but many come here to watch the fights. At his weight and age, he was one of the best. Rafe is also known for his aggressiveness."

"You know a lot about him." Said Wain.

"Well, it's not that hard to find out, considering that we're in the same group, or rather studied," Rita said modestly. Wain knew she was holding something back, but it didn't matter.

"I get the gist of the situation. Take me to Gisle." Wain said calmly.

Rita nodded and headed into the building. At that moment, she was replaced by another person.

Wain was curious to see what would happen next. Gisle could lead people and be a great leader. In the future, Wain could take advantage of this. But if he lost to Rafe, so be it.

Wain had no intention of obeying anyone or being the head of any team. It wasn't in his interest. Wain was what famous leaders and heads of criminal organizations were afraid of.

He didn't lead millions. He gathered information and took advantage of the resources of individuals who had enormous power. In a way, Wain was a ruler in his world, for it was up to him whether or not one would live.

But, Wain did not seem this definition was correct. In his opinion, a ruler could be considered someone who led many people, gave orders, and developed a clan, an organization, or an entire country. He was not a ruler. He was a judge or a reaper, for they were the ones who decided matters of life and death.

If Gisle grew stronger and increased his influence, more people would follow him. This meant that he would have more opportunities, more resources, and of course, more information.

Therefore, if Wain were someone, Gisle would respect or fear, he could get information without wasting his time and energy directing others. This was the main advantage of being a judge.

Wain was something of a gray cardinal, and that role suited him. He didn't set out to lead others from the shadows. He didn't mind if his power and influence were known to all. But that was unlikely.

Since the heads of organizations were subordinate to him, they were not interested in their subordinates knowing about it. Therefore, the situation was that all leaders of organizations and clans in his world knew about him. They feared or respected him. But, their subordinates and often even their most trusted persons were unaware of Wain's existence.

Wain was never interested in power. The most important thing to him was strength. Of course, these two things often overlapped. That is why many people, despite Wain's reluctance, followed him.

'Hmm, if Gisle does not meet my expectations and loses, then I will have to intimidate Rafe since he will now be in charge in this territory. It would be better if Gisle wins, intimidation works well and quickly, but sometimes the system fails.' Wain thought as he approached Gisle's room.

"Wain?" Gisle muttered in surprise. '"Great, I was worried you were already dead. What happened in that creepy crypt?"

Wain shrugged and calmly replied, "Nothing interesting. Lots of monsters that are already dead. If I hadn't killed them, they would have come out. Nothing more to tell."

Gisle nodded and said, "You already know the situation?"

"Yes, you have a battle to fight for the throne and the crown, don't you?" With a slight smile on his face, Wain said.

"That's right, Rafe, this idiot doesn't understand that there's no point in fighting for the right to rule. We must unite, mop up the monsters around the university. Awaken the Soul Altar of all students and then conquer and subdue other territories. We don't have time for the pathetic semblance of civil wars." Gisle said coldly.

Wain smiled and nodded, "You're right. But, the voice of logic and rationality speaks for you. However, you don't seem to understand people's desires very well. Now, this is the most opportune moment to gain power and might during the apocalypse. Rafe doesn't care about progress, he wants power first, and you are in his way. Even if his actions later lead to the collapse, it doesn't matter now. People will go for whoever is stronger, not whoever has better leadership abilities."

Gisle smirked and said, "I see you know this stuff. Have you ever had to lead large groups of people before?"

"Not really. You could say I've interacted with those who have led people." Smiling weakly, Wain replied.

Gisle looked out the window at the main square and muttered quietly, "Looks like it's time."

Rafe and his subordinates were already waiting for him. He was ready for battle.. He wanted to win and be in charge as soon as possible.
