The clean up was very messy and long. The dead bodies of the undead were gathered in one place and burned them down to avoid spreading diseases and to avoid more hungry cannibals attracted to the bodies. The soldiers who died from the attack of the decapitator were gathered and blessed by Pastor Shin before they are cremated. A few of the soldiers shed tears due to the death of their comrades and some of them blamed themselves for the death of their comrades. Well, I can't blame them either because even I had been too slow for the attack that when I responded, another life is lost.

I looked at the soldiers and sighed. This is a common occurrence in the apocalypse and dying is a natural cycle. I even lost two guys already since the apocalypse. But I really had to hold it on. As the leader, the lives of my comrades are always my priority. I made a sign of the cross and the ceremony of the cremation started.

The weather seems to be mourning with us too since it started to rain after the cremation. It was really a blessing after the darkness that occurred to us. The soldiers seems to have lighten up their mood seeing the downpour.

Some of the soldiers still keep on guarding the place via small rooms on the wall that they can use to shield themselves in the rain and can allow them to monitor the place too. On the other hand, I moved inside the tower and called my comrades.

"Good work out there. You all did a fine job on the battle," I said to them.

"No sh*t! My life is always on the line and I even thought that I might die if I missed a single shot!" Izayoi said as he gripped his sniper rifle.

"That was indeed frightening especially during the appearance of the special infecteds. Who would have thought that they would start appearing here and there and starts killing the soldiers one by one. I almost thought I would be one of those guys," Souichi mumbled as he shook his head. Looks like he already have a steel mind after the events last time.

"We should be thankful that we survived for another day though. Living is really bleak in this age right now," Sena said as she put her sniper rifle on her shoulders.

"I never thought that I would be under a besieged battle like this. I am too tired at the moment," Tamaki massaged her shoulders. Looks like the recoil made her shoulders sore.

I look at the others and sighed ordered them again.

"Well, good job everyone, go and take a rest. That is an order."

I stare into the sky and saw the dark clouds looming over. Well, I hope the rain would last long enough until the Night Rage...

The others moved towards the clinic where the others are attending the wounded while I returned to the meeting room. But I did not need to go there since Haru is already sitting on a bench placed on the hallways. He is holding his head like he was having a problem. I stare at him for a while and decided to break the silence.

"The battle has won. But we lose a few soldiers," I said to him and took a seat beside him.

He raised his head and looked at me before he sighed and stare into the floor.

"I am a worthless leader. I did not even participated in the battles. I am a horrible soldier who let his comrades die," Haru clutched his forehead.

"Stop whining dumbass. You really are a dumbass," I said before opening one of the lollipops in my pocket and pop it into my mouth.

"Yes. I am a dumbass," he mumbled.

I closed my eyes, pull out the brass knuckles in my hands and gave a hard punch into his face.

"F*ck off, stop whining. If you keep whining, you are really hopeless. Why bother with that? You are the leader of this place so why would you even grumble about being hopeless? I just don't understand much of your logic. A soldier like you should be more superior than me since you as a soldier have undergone intense and harsh training and are trained to battle in the battlefield, but why I am seeing a guy who can't even made the morale of his comrades high? Are you saying civilians are much better soldiers than real soldiers? What kind of logic is that?" I scolded him hard as he clutch his cheeks that I punched hard. If the brass knuckles was there, he would be having an internal bleeding due to that.

He looked at me with confused looks. Blood flows out of his lips from the pain. Then he smiled and wipes off the blood on his lips.

"You are right. Things doesn't have to be like this. Now that I know that my girlfriend is safe, I don't have to get worried. Thanks for the wake up call though. Its an eye opener for me," Haru said and stood up.

"Well, that is good. Then, since you have recovered, we would be discussing the plan next. I will rest for a while before we should start the planning. If we want to survive then we had to plan out the things we had to do to survive. Our next target to kill is the Behemoth."
