Shawn asked Ed to do nothing as he was recovering from his injury. Shawn didn’t need to eat, so it was unnecessary for Ed to prepare the food. He didn’t ask Ed to clean the house, either. Because he didn’t like others to enter his residence.

Thinking it over and over again, not until Ed was healed of his injury could Shawn arrange him to do things. Shawn was planning to ask Ed to collect crystal cores, however, he hadn’t recovered from his injury. It was a little harsh to ask him to do it now.

So he had to look after Ed for now. The more he thought about it, the more losses he thought he had suffered. Thinking for quite a while, he thought he could ask Ed to start collecting crystal cores. As long as there were not quite a few zombies, it would not be a problem for Ed.

A few days later, Shawn came to Ed and said, “How is it going with your injury?”

“Much better. I could ran and jump now.” Said Ed joyfully. The sooner he was healed of his injury, the sooner he would not be a drag on Shawn. He would not be treated as a liability but could live on his own.

“So soon?” Asked Shawn in surprise. Ed could barely walk before, however, he could run and jump now! His recovery ability was so damn strong.

“Since using crystal cores you gave to me, I had found that my recovery ability became much stronger. It won’t be long before I show you my power, and don’t be surprised then.” Ed gave Shawn a complacent look.

“Well, then you can go out to hunter zombies and collect crystal cores.” Disregarding Ed’s eyes, Shawn said blankly.

“Hey, I am still injured.” Said Ed.

“But you said you could run and jump now? Zombies could neither run nor jump. With your power impressing me, these zombies won’t be a problem for you.” Said Shawn.

“...” Ed instantly had a feeling that he had lifted a rock only to drop it on his own feet.

How could he run and jump now? Although crystal cores could make his recovery ability stronger, the effect was not so magical. The reason why he said so was that he tried to make himself valuable and ask for more crystal cores from Shawn. He could at most walk faster, and his injury was not as serious as before.

“Bring me five crystal cores a day.” Said Shawn.

“Five?” Said Ed immediately, “Does it exist in the brain of every zombie?”

“It exists in the brain of two or three zombies out of ten.” Looking at Ed being beaten, Shawn was in a good mood.

“In that way, I have to kill at least twenty zombies a day?”

“It’s your own business.” Said Shawn, “And I would neither give you crystal cores nor food or clothes from now on.”

Ed felt bitter in his heart, and it was definitely not his day today.

Disregarding what Ed was thinking about, Shawn went back to his own room immediately after he said, and went to the bathroom to look in the mirror.

His face was still black and blue in the mirror, which was not different from before. Since he started eating crystal cores, his body had stopped decaying, however, it hadn’t got better, either. Looking at his body, it remained almost unchanged. However...

He had a look at the lower part of his body, and his face suddenly fell. Since when had all his pubic hair shed? Tut! What a headache! Would it grow back again? He would rather be bald than have his pubic hair shed! However, he had no choice at all.

He sighed a deep sighed, put his clothes on, and then climbed through a window and went out.

Not knowing Shawn had left, Ed was still feeling sorry for his own life.

But since when had Shawn asked him to start killing zombies? He had food, water, and clothes. With the support of all these things, he could last out for a couple of days. Hence... He had better take more rest, allowing his injury to heal, and then went out. Oh, he could collect crystal cores, absorb them to heal his injury first, and then collect five more for Shawn.

Making his decision, Ed took a rest for three more days. Shawn said nothing about Ed’s actions. Anyway, Ed would leave someday, and all he needed was waiting in patience.

For the following three days, Shawn went out every day. Apart from crystal cores, he would also collect some stuff which he had interest in, and then stopped by other places in the downtown to check situations.

Three days later, Ed rode his shabby bike, and went out to collect crystal cores and supplies he needed.

In the meanwhile, a group of people in the downtown headed toward the villa district where Shawn and Ed lived.
