Seeing it, I narrowed my eyes and turned around while saying, "Go get your friends and escape the school quickly. Something bad will happen soon."
I had no bad blood against Takashi. In fact, he would also be a great help for survival. So I decided to give him some advice.
'But I won't tell him the truth. If he's the same as the protagonist in the anime, then he should be able to survive.'
I wouldn't tell him that the man who bit the teacher was a zombie. He would soon find out about it anyway. And the story would go on the same route if I didn't interfere.
Meanwhile, he looked at me with wide eyes. He seemed surprised and scared by what just happened. However, he calmed down quickly and nodded his head.
"Yeah. Be careful." He said before running downstairs.
'...Yeah, no need to worry about me.'
I turned back to see what was going on and saw that the three teachers who were bitten fell to the ground.
Only a few minutes were left before they would turn into zombies.
I took a deep breath and calmed myself down. Then, I opened my status page and checked my stats again.
[Name: Busujima Daiki
Strength: 13 | Agility: 13 | Stamina: 15 | Dexterity: 12
Skills: Busujima Swordsmanship (Intermediate), Marksmanship (Intermediate)
A smile crept on my face.
‘I am confident I can survive this.'
Taking the sword I hid near the roof, I sprinted toward class 3-A where Saeko was.
There was still time until the full outbreak. I planned to get her and Miss Shizuka out of this situation before the school became a mess.
Along the way, I saw the teachers who got bitten already turned through the window. Their eyes were white and blank, their bodies covered with bite marks.
They were advancing toward this building where sounds could be heard. They were attracted to noises.
I quickened my steps. The situation was getting worse by the minute, and I knew I needed to hurry.
My phone buzzed in my pocket, getting a message from someone. But I ignored it and ran.
Before long, I arrived at Saeko's class and opened the door roughly. Everyone turned at me, looking confused. I ignored them and met gazes with Saeko, whose eyes widened upon seeing the sword in my hand.
"Hey, you can't interrupt the class–"
"Take your wooden sword and let's go. It's an emergency."
I interrupted the teacher's words and talked to Saeko. She looked surprised, but she didn't say anything and stood up, grabbing her wooden sword that was leaning on the wall.
The teacher looked at us with a frown, "Hey, what are you doing?"
"Please excuse me, sensei. There's an emergency." Saeko said to the teacher. "We'll be leaving for now."
After a bow, she followed me out of the classroom. As we went, I heard the teacher yelling from behind, but we ignored him.
"What's happening?" She asked.
I didn't answer right away. I took out my phone and read the message I received earlier. It was from Miss Rika.
Rika: Daiki, can I count on you to protect Shizuka? Are you a prophet? I can't explain it, but you will understand soon. Feel free to use any guns in my house. She should know the passcode. Take care!
As I had expected, she was calling about the zombie outbreak. As a police officer, she surely got information faster than me.
What a ridiculous choice!
I chose number one without hesitation. Shizuka was an important character and I needed her. Doctor was necessary in an apocalypse for someone with no medical knowledge like me.

After making a choice, I answered Saeko.
"A murder happened in the front gate. For some reason, the victim died with just one bite and then moved again to attack others. It's a dangerous situation, so we need to leave as soon as possible."
I pointed to her to look out the window and she saw it too. Smoke rose from the city, and she could see fires burning here and there.
Reanimated corpses walked toward this building and attacked the teachers who came out to investigate the noise. The victims got bitten, and soon enough, they were on the same side as the ones who attacked them.
"This is..." She trailed off.
"Let's go." I said, grabbing her arm. "We don't have time."
She nodded her head and followed me to the infirmary. We had to get the air headed but sexy nurse out of this situation as soon as possible.
We ran through the first floor hallway, and I could hear noise from the speaker.
"All students, attention! An attack has happened in the school..."
Hearing the announcement, I realized I had no time left.
Fortunately, I had arrived at the infirmary. I banged the door open, and found Miss Shizuka sitting alone.
"Miss Shizuka!" I called out. "We need to leave the school immediately!"
Shizuka looked at me with a confused face. She looked at my sword, and then at Saeko's wooden sword. Her face showed confusion.
"Leave the school? What are you talking about?" She asked.
"It's an emergency. Let's take the school bus and leave immediately. You will understand what's going on when we're outside." I replied.
She looked at me with a thoughtful expression. "But..."
What a difficult to handle person! Her sense of danger was so low!
At that moment, the choice appeared again.
I was really pissed. This fucking system was pushing me to my limits!
However, it helped me to make a quick decision. Without hesitation, I chose number 2.
"Listen, miss." I said. "If you don't want to die a horrible death, you better come with us. Miss Rika has instructed me to keep you safe and leave the school with you. That's why I need you to come with me."
"...Oh." She nodded her head. "If Rika asked you to, then I have no other choice. Let's go, then."

The choices were really useful. If I chose the wrong one, it would take longer for me to convince her. But with the right one, I was able to persuade her easily.
As I was about to leave, suddenly another notification rang.
[Outbreak has begun! Shop is open, use it to survive!]
At the same time, screams echoed everywhere.
The outbreak has started in earnest.
