(Kyosei's View)
Morning finally came and the surge of the horde finally ended. There are still a few more numbers of undead in the surroundings, hobbling from one another but it just needed a little bit of effort to clean everything up. Overall, it is not a dangerous night.
Haru went out to inspect the situation as he always does every day, every night to ensure that everything is in good shape and good condition. He is more on the brain side and since he keeps on handling contacts from people to improve our connection and get more supply in our hands, he does not participate in battles.
He asked everyone who is fighting what is the difficulty in the current situation as there are many instances that things will suddenly get a drastic turn of negativity the moment a weakness appeared. That way, if it ever appears, he already has a plan to mitigate it or he has already the necessary plan to fix it or do something else.
”Morning Kyosei. Is there any sort of trouble that occurred last night? If there is so, you can say it to me to make sure that the damage is going to disappear once the night started.”
”Nothing so far. It got much easier to defend the place and kill the dead without much trouble against the special infected like the Juggernauts,” I said ti h
”Well, that is good but are you sure there is no problem with the way the battle works? No complaints or improvisation suggestions?”
”If you are asking for some suggestions, I think we needed a watchtower,” Nathalie suggested as she is assigned in the walls most of the time to snipe some dead. Her suggestion would greatly benefit her task.
”A watchtower huh... that is a good suggestion. I will try to see if a watchtower can be placed inside the walls to make sure we can keep on using it safely. Anything else to add?”
No one raised a hand which means Nathalie's suggestion is the only one sent to him. I have thought about Nathalie's suggestion before but because the materials are incredibly needed for the repair of the damages of the mansion and the creation of the walls, I slowly forget the project of creating the watchtower and it is good that Nathalie mentioned it.
I thought that was the only thing Haru will mention but this time, he didn't walk away to return to his job and continues to talk to us.
”I have a report to make and some orders for everyone while I am at it. Currently, some of the movements in Osaka and some of the territory wars are caused by some gangsters in the area. We also spotted that they are actively moving and doing as they please near our outposts and currently looting almost everything inside of stores and some houses. Sooner or later, they will discover our base and if my assumption is right, they will try to attack us.
Now here is my order. Since they are quite a troublesome group, I decided to let Kyosei and Kaito do the scavenging for the time while the rest will have to stay here inside the vicinity until the gangs decided to stop messing with us. The reason I choose them is due to their experience in fighting mobs and their abilities to infiltrate. Are there any questions?”
Nathalie is so active today that she is the first one to ask for the initiative. ”Are the gangs going to be a threat to us?”
”Basically, yes. They have been doing many kinds of troubles around and they threaten some survivors. Kyosei's group encountered a few of them and managed to dispose of most of them. However, we can't always assume they won't make a move on us which is why Kyosei and Kaito will act like the ones seeking and doing a saboteur job on them. That way, we can inflict severe damage against them in the future.”
”Should we increase the tightness of the security in this situation? Our security is a little bit on the lax side, especially in the mornings. Should we increase the rotational duty of the people around to ensure the security is tight?” Okabe asked.
”Yes. We can't afford to lower our guard on this situation. Gangsters will always be gangsters and unlike some of the mafia that can be reasoned with as long as you don't mess with their brotherhood, the gangsters are savage brutes that managed to survive the apocalypse and used the chaos of it to set trouble to anyone surviving left behind,” Haru said.
