Surviving the Zombie Apocalypse With My Military System

suddenly, sara found herself getting pulled closer to richard and her lips met his in a brief, unexpected kiss.

the staffers inside the command center, mark and graves gasped at the unexpected sight. to think that richard would do something like that in the spur of the moment is unthinkable. but now they are seeing it, and the room fell into a brief silence, broken only by the distant sounds of the ongoing conflict outside.

richard stepped back, his face serious again. ”i’ll be back, sara. that’s a promise,” he said, before reactivating his helmet to cover his face once more.

”y-yes...” sara stammered.

richard flickered his gaze to the two. ”keep things running here. i’m counting on you both.”

mark nodded, still a bit surprised by the scene he just witnessed. ”understood, sir. we’ll hold the fort.”

graves, regaining his composure, added, ”we’ve got this, sir. be careful out there.”

”no problem, eagle. if you ever need help, don’t hesitate to call us,” mark said.

”now...” richard clenched his fist, the suit hummed ominously. ”let’s test if i can survive this one-on-one fight against this monster.”
