Chapter 20

"When did everything change for me? When did I fade into the background? If this machine saw the light of day it was thanks to my theories, yet I was dismissed from the project like a common outcast " said the king to himself. 

He was so angry that he hit the mirror which was broken, that's when he heard a person knocking on his door, the king put his mask back on and opened the door. 

- majesty they have finished repairing the machine should I give the attack order?. Aotsu asks him. 

- tell your men to prepare from now on, you are the new leader of the expedition unit. The king told him. 

- very good my king. Aotsu told him. 

Who was in a hurry to go see Kazuki to tell him the news. 

- hey Kazuki I came to tell you that you have been transferred to the royal unit, I'm taking your place

- don't make fun of me. Kazuki told him

He was eating his meal when Aotsu took out his revolver, Paw! He had shot Kazuki right in the heart, guards enter the room. 

- thrown him to the scythe, the king needs him to strengthen his unity. Aotsu says. 

The guards obeyed him and took away his body. The king had gone down to the basement accompanied by 30 members of the royal unit and 50 members of the expedition unit. Arriving in the basement they saw Miyuki starting the machine. 

- I'm sorry miyuki, if you had agreed to sleep I would have spared you. Says Aotsu before shooting Miyuki in the back who collapses. 

- there is no place for traitors in my empire! Exclaims the king. 

As soon as he finished his sentence he saw Aotsu's head lying on the ground.

CHAPTER 20: WHEN THE MASK FALLS. 

Seeing his aunt collapse, Kurao had not lost his cool, he was on the verge of being saved and he had to make a choice. 

"Remember Kurao, you're not only doing it for your mother, but also for the woman you love... Unlike zombies, all his men deserve to die, they kill not by instinct but because they want to, if you don't do anything then you too will end up on the ground.”He said to himself as he drew his katana. 

His saber drawn, Kurao rushes at full speed and decapitates Aotsu with a blow of his sword, suddenly we hear the noise produced by a bullet from a firearm and a man from the expedition unit collapses on the ground, he had just been shot by kiyoko. 

- you think you can stop me with this childishness? The king asks him. 

With rapid gestures Kurao had managed to hit all the members of the royal unit, they had caught fire, while the members of the expedition unit had thrown away their weapons when they found themselves surrounded by the unit of miyuki defense and unity. 

- it's over for you, the king! Kurao exclaims. 

The king started laughing, it was all nothing more than a joke to him. 

- Explain to me kid how you managed to turn my men against me? The king asks him. 

- it's simply thanks to Aotsu, a month ago when we started the repairs, Miyuki told me about a resistance network which was preparing a coup d'état. To ensure that no one would come to jeopardize my projects, I took command of the revolutionary unit from the shadows. The first thing I had to do was to flush out a potential traitor, once the traitor was known, the remains was nothing more than child's play. Kurao explains to him. 

The king began to applaud Kurao while making fun of him. 

- you impress me kid, you remind me of the child I once was with your insight and your sense of deduction. The king told him. 

- tell me the king, if you wear a mask it's because you yourself were infected, right? Kurao asks him. 

The king had suddenly remained silent while everyone present could not believe it, the one who had governed him until then was none other than an infested person. 

- I imagine that you killed the previous king and took his place by pretending to be him! Kurao exclaims. 

- tell me kid how did you come to this conclusion? Asks him king of a relaxed era. 

- thanks to the story of Kiyoko and those of the units present on the island... Kiyoko told me that when they arrived the king was already present on the island and Miyuki told me that the one who called the king was none other than the very creator of the machine. Being the creator you would never have asked your troops to find you a piece that you yourself hid, that's what led me to a conclusion. Kurao explains while staring at the king. 

- which ?. The king asks him. 

- that you usurped the identity of the true king. Kurao answers him

- your story is very funny, it's up to sleep. The king told him, still calm. 

- a tall tale, right? How can we be unable to start a machine that we designed ourselves? During our first meeting my goal was simply to know if you could activate the B-HOLES HQ or not, once confirmed all I had to do was make you believe that you led the dance until today, you could not you suspect it because you simply came across someone stronger than you! Kurao told him

- it's time to drop the mask, survivor of Mizu hospital. He adds, taking a shuriken out of his bag. 

The king remained calm, when he wanted to take a step the shuriken came and rested on the helmet that the king was wearing. The mask was broken and everyone was able to see the face of the one who called himself the king. 

- mister hiroto.... But why? Kiyoko asks him. 

- you want to know why? Do you see this machine here present was born thanks to my theories, it was up to me to have the task of building it but no, Kaito and Eduard had to be appointed in my place and I was thrown away like a outcasts for revenge I first started by eliminating kaito then sabotaging the machine which led us to the invasion. Hiroto explains to him. 

Kurao had just learned that the person responsible for his father's death was none other than Hiroto. He rushed to decapitate his head but was stopped by a powerful spinning kick from an omega zombie who killed him. had spread out on the ground.
