Level up Zombie - Chapter 237: The Strongest Reborn

Reborn Zombies didn’t feel pain and they were able to heal themselves from extraordinary wounds. There was a limit to what could be done with their healing, but in most cases as long as the body part wasn’t missing and it was nothing to do with the brain, they could heal it.

However, what Zain could do was completely different compared to every Reborn they had come across, because he was able to heal on the spot, without having to consume human flesh. Healing did take from Zain’s stamina and he would have to consume flesh if he wanted to constantly heal.

The difference was, in a way he could borrow from his body’s energy reserves to force his body to heal there and then, and in that way, he wouldn’t be so disadvantaged in the fight. This was why the instructor Wix ended up so surprised.

He looked at Zain’s hand in amazement as if it was as good as new, and before he knew it, he could see a white spear heading straight toward his body. Wix managed to grab the spear but the throw was more forceful than he thought and the tip had just managed to pierce his stomach.

With his other hand, he lifted it up and slammed down on the spear, breaking it in half. There was some hesitancy as to whether or not he should break the item, since the weapon was clearly special being able to transform.

In the end, Wix needed to treat this as if it was a real fight, and he felt that the weapon with its transform ability was dangerous, even though he had no idea Zain could no longer change its shape.

It was no problem though, due to the passive effect of the weapon that allowed it to heal itself, and in the first place, it was all meant to be a distraction. Zain had run forward after throwing the spear, and with his speed, he was nearly as fast as the spear itself.

So after Wix had broken the spear he was wide open. Zain had jumped in the air, and spun his body with the single sword in his hand; it looked similar to what Pink had done to him not too long ago.

‘Holding the spear affected my ability to use my sword mastery to its full potential, and now, I know exactly what I need to do.’

With the spin, the sword came right down toward Wix, who went to punch the sword strike. When the two clashed, there were a few sparks, but there was more forceful power coming from the sword that punished the hand away and almost all of Wix’s body.

When Zain landed on the ground, he could see Wix was on the back foot, and used his full speed to run ahead swinging the sword again, aiming for the hand once more. Rather than hitting him at the forearm though, he slashed through with the titan sword just above the elbow.

A clean cut was made followed by a thud as something had hit the ground. The contestants around could see it, an arm was on the floor. With Zain’s speed, strength and the Titan sword, he had managed to cut off the instructor’s hand.

“You are a more calculating man than I ever thought.” Wix smiled and the other arm that was still intact, the special black skin was starting to disappear. “You have a great sense of what to do when fighting against different opponents as well.

“It was a good choice, I’m skillful enough to hurt you and defend my vitals with my arms, so the best thing to do is to get rid of them. Well done, with regret, I have to say that there is nothing I can teach.”

“No, thank you.” Zain bowed. “Because of you, I have managed to gain a lot more than I could have imagined.”

These words were true and it appeared whatever bad blood there was between the two seemed to disappear right after the fight.

Thankfully, the effects of the fight between the two caused no permanent harm. The arm was still intact, so it could just be palced back on Wix and healed like so. After the match was over, Wix had declared that training was over.

He told everyone to make note of what they saw today, as everyone had their own fighting style that seemed to work for them. It was good that they used the fundamentals that he taught them, to suit their strengths best just like those that were fighting today.

After that, Wix had said he wished to speak with Zain on his own, and the two were left sitting down against the wall in the changing room.

“I wanted to officially apologise to you.” Wix said. “We get a lot of new recruits that come in here, thinking that they are…well hot shit, since they gained new found strength and were much stronger then they were before.

“They slack on the training and if they do that they either end up dead, or hurting others, but you were the real deal.”

Zain was happy to accept Wix’s apology and thought he was actually a good teacher, there was just a reason he wanted to show his strength. It was so they didn’t pamper him so much.

Now they would know, either he could go out and do tasks on his own, or allow him to at least improve on his own, and his progression wouldn’t slow down in the slightest.

“I wanted to ask, you have fought me and you said I was strong, compared to the other Reborn in here, how strong do you think I am?” Zain asked.

“Don’t tell me your thinking of challenging them as well.” Wix smiled. “It’s hard to say, as we don’t really know until we get in a fight. There are quite a few Reborn agents, captains of groups that are around as strong as me. Since you beat me, they wouldn’t be a challenge for you.

“In terms of stronger than me, then that would leave Sid, who I believe you’ve already met, and the strongest out of the group to be Mr X. Other than those two, there are the two guards that wear the riot headgear that are with Sarah at all times.

“I know they’re strong but I don’t know how strong. Either way, I think it’s best if you avoid fighting with them for now, and besides, while you are in the Reborn group, when you get strong enough, both Sid and X will come and ask to fight you anyway. So just enjoy the time while you are here.”

Zain liked the sound of that, it was good that there were other strong Reborn it meant the place was safe, and the current position he was in, was perfect for him to improve.

‘While I’m here, I’ll figure everything out, while also getting stronger in the process.’
