It took me quite a while to finish gathering the bottles necessary. Not only that, I have to go outside and scrounge for cars with fuels left in their tanks for these fuels from no longer functioning cars are needed for the Molotov C.o.c.ktails to properly work. It took me a while before I managed to siphon enough fuel for the amount I can bring. There is no point siphoning lots of fuel if I won’t use the rest after.

As for the people inside the gymnasium, they didn’t help me one bit aside from Aika who would ask me for anything she can help with. If not for the previous incident with that proud teacher, these guys would surely try to keep approaching me for things useless to know.

With the amount of bottles I managed to procure, only 24 pieces since I can’t bring more than that amount. I also prepared enough cloths to put inside the bottles though I didn’t put them yet to avoid it from spilling. I put some caps on them which I can open using my can opener. And when the necessary amount is already in my bag, I took out the zippo lighter I managed to get from a few corpses of the first cult I killed back then. 

I stood up and ready my things up when Aika approached again.

”Um, are you still going out again?”

”Is there a problem?”

”It’s almost night time and the zombies will start running once it hits 6 in the evening. Also, there’s this mosquitoes that appeared at night too. It’s much safer to stay here inside and wait for the morning.”

”For us survivors who have survived the worst that has been thrown to us, that is not a problem at all especially for me who is always an active frontliner at night.”

After saying that, I went to the platform and exit the window, leaving the others who are just staring at me leave.

Looking at the time, I am quite sure things will be harder at night but the sooner I get rid of the Gluttony, the faster I can finish my job in here. There are plenty of undead in the area ans once the time will hit 6 pm, it will be chaos. If I don’t solve this problem once I confronted the enemy then things will be real bad. To avoid getting over run by the dead later, I decided to do some mass slaughter and take care of them before proceeding on the plan.

...

With the Piyavka Sickle on my hands and a few more things I can use during battle, it takes little time to clear out most of the undead roaming around the place. Though after my cleanup operation, it is almost 6 in the evening. Finishing off some of the loose undead in the surroundings, I stretch my arms and legs as I stare into the main building.

Time to get the work done.

...

Once I arrived into the second floor, I immediately noticed the melted walls and traces of the acidic saliva on the place. There are also many wreckage on the place which means while I was not here, the Gluttony started to wreck the second floor and started devouring.

”SKREEEEEEEEEEE!”

The sound of the Gluttony started to reverberate all around the entire floor as my wrist watch also rings when the time hits 6 in the evening. Already marked, I pulled out my Piyavka sickle and track the Gluttony. I also didn’t forget to open it and attach the cloth on the mouth of the bottle. The zippo lighter is also ready which also will burn the cloth and make sure the molotov works the moment it will come in contact with the cloth.

It didn’t take me too much time finding the Gluttony as the creature itself is looking for me after the night rage begins.

”SKRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEE!”

Once the ugly mug of the creature appeared before me, I opened the zippo lighter while going to backwards a bit and burn the cloth which immediately ignited and is now ready. Without any hesitation, I throw the molotov to the monster which caused it to ignite in fire.

”SKKKKRRRRRRRRREEEEE!”

The creature shook so wild that the tendrils it was used before who are all ready suddenly ignited in fire. It started slamming on the walls and attacking randomly. Those tendrils are growing wild. Although the fire that was caused by the molotov is did not last long, the damage and effect of the molotov caused is very lethal to the gluttony.

I throw another bottle of Molotov again and it is a strike on the Gluttony’s whole head. Ear piercing screams followed suit and the tendril this time starts to focus its attacks on me. Thankfully, the Piyavka Sickle allowed me to destroy the tendrils approaching for the kill. Due to the strength of the flames that ignited the monster, I noticed this creature to have been weaker than before. It’s tendrils no longer work as much as before and the attacks are not as frequent and accuracy seems out of the question too.

Sensing this change, I quickly abused this and pulled out one more Molotov c.o.c.ktail and ignited it before throwing it to its body which breaks the bottle, spilling its content to the floor. With the help of the flames on the cloth I ignited, the fuel that is spilled immediately goes to blaze up, burning the creature once again that continues to scream and rampage.

Now that it is distracted, I rush forward, cutting all the incoming tentacles and leap into its body, slashing the flabby skin of the Gluttony using the Piyavka Sickle. Seeing the vulnerability of the Gluttony now, I pull out the Hunting Shotgun and aimed at thr Gluttony’s body. The moment I pulled the trigger...

BANG!

A huge chunk of flesh from the Gluttony has been torn off from its obese body.

------------

Kyosei here again, this time, it is an update about the Gluttony’s info regarding to some additional things added on this chapter.

Danger Level

Single: Level 9

Single(After exposing it to its weakness): level 4

Horde: None

Night Rage Single: Level 9.5

Night Rage Single(After exposed to its weakness): level 5

Night Rage Horde: None

Individuals who became these creatures: a gluttonous person

Info: This guy is unique existence and the first appearance of this creature is unknown. It was a big humanoid lump of flesh, walking in all fours, and is currently describe as ”melting flesh”. It’s height is not precise but it is enough to reach the ceiling without touching it. It was called Gluttony due to its behavior of devouring almost anything. Although it looked like it has a bloated head in first glance, the head was instead composed of a large mouth which questions what happened to its eyes, nose and ears as they are now missing.

The hairs on its body also mutated becoming similar to receptors and feelers of some insects and some animals. You can call it, the Gluttony’s ”Antenna”. Even though it has no eyes, the feelers are enough to act as its eyes and will detect anything moving around it. Though it acts like an antenna, it has limited range and can only feel presence 3 blocks away from the main body, other than that, it was blurry. Not only does this act as antennas, they also act like tentacles and can grab things so when approaching, watch out for them all the time as they can sometimes extend up to three blocks away from the main body.

It eats everything, nothing is spared. Undead, humans, other infected creatures, even concrete and glass are devoured. With it’s saliva that acts as an acid as lethal as a hydrofluoric acid, anything can be melted once it went into its mouth.

(Update logs)

The gluttony is very weak against fire that it will scream wildly the moment it comes in contact with one. It’s tendrils are much easier to destroy too as it is very flammable. The moment the Gluttony comes in contact to its weakness which is extreme heat and flames, its danger rating will plummet harshly. It is best killing it using the flames or using any explosive to kill it. Despite it’s degraded rating in danger, do not underestimate this creature as it can still kill.

It’s regenerative abilities will also disappear the moment they are exposed to the flames. It will also be possible to penetrate it with gun bullets now so killing it on the distance will now be easy to do so.
