Mack felt an invincible pressure descend on him and he shivered slightly. But he took a deep breath when he realized the person looking at him was his age mate. Why would he lower his head under his gaze?

For a couple of seconds, the entire ground floor was in total silence. The howl of icy wind blew into the shelter from the slightly opened door. Yet, now one seems to care about it. Now, everyone was waiting for the famous leader's decision.

Suddenly, Justin averted his gaze. Perhaps, averting his face from him because from the on set. He was not looking at him.

His perception was checking every individual inside the building. After getting the reading from everyone in the room.

Justin didn't utter a word. He marched forward in light steps and stopped in front of the crowd. He turned and looked at the crowd and he began to speak.

"I know some of you has extraordinary backgrounds when the world was still in order. But now, the world is in chaos and disorder. So to be on the safer side and not to have any misunderstanding. If you want to stay here, you need to forget about your background." He pauses a bit.

The crowd took a deep breath and looked at each other before their eyes focused on Mack and Susan.

They knew those words were meant for the duo. Feeling the people's gaze on him. Mack wanted to respond but he controlled his urge to do so.

'Let here what he had to say first.' He thought.

Meanwhile, Susan's gaze lingered on Mack for a brief of seconds but when she saw him controlling his impulse. She nodded slightly before she focused on Justin.

She was getting an unfathomable feeling from this ordinary young man and she wanted nothing but to unravel it.

"The future is bleak as for now and childish quarrel is the least of our problems. So I want every hand on deck."

"I'm happy for you people here. Seriously you should thank your luck and those that safe you. If not, most of you would probably be dead."

The crowd nodded and looked at Mack and Susan in gratitude. They were the ones that fought most of the battle against the zombies. They are their lucky star.

"Now, for those that have the intention of starting a problem inside this shelter. I won't ask you to stop. But I want you to give it a try. If you think I will handle this based on the previous world laws and manners, you're wrong. Just try to sow discord"

The temperature of the drop by another couple of degrees and the people could feel a pricking feeling on their bodies. What's this? The people shouted in their minds.

Mack frowns under the sudden change in the atmosphere while Susan raises her brow.

'I'm not his match.' She concluded in her mind.

For him to affect the temperature in the room with his voice only. She would be stupid to believe it was natural. She knew it was done by the seemingly young man.

"Throw him out."

Nika didn't have to be told twice. Though he hadn't recovered to his peak. An ordinary human won't be his match. He appeared in front of Amman like a ghost and threw him out.

Ah!

Crash!

The sound of broken bones echoed from outside and everyone in the room shivered at their ruthlessness. This was a human they are dealing with, why would they go to such length?

At least, they should have pardoned him. The crowd thought in annoyance but none of them dares to show it on their faces.

Justin saw the expression on the faces of the crowd but he didn't care. He knew better.historical

He had seen the dark side of society. No one is good unless they have something they need from you. And if you lose that value. Then, you would realize no one was truly your friend.

Maybe some families may stand with some people. But that won't change his mindset.

He had been betrayed, trample on. What has he not seen? Maybe a little.

The wealthy group looks down on the poor while the poor look up to them.

If you gain the attention of wealthy people. Know that they are exploiting you. While the poor, if you help them. They turn it into a sense of entitlement. And if you stop, they hate you.

Humans are insatiable. If you give them an inch, they take a mile. If he pardons him today, he will do the worst thing tomorrow.

Then, the small disunity would have grown with many branches, difficult to uproot.

Is he ready for that?

The answer is No.

"Previously, I had a bit of respect for you. But now, you're just barbaric like those heartless zombies." A voice shouted veins protruded from his forehead.

He steps out of the crowd and stops a couple of distances from Justin, looking straight into his eyes. Everyone took a deep breath, they have long expected Mack to stand up for such inhuman behavior.

Merab and Nika looked at each other and shake their head. 'And I was a fan of this prick. What a question to my intelligence.' Merab thought.

Susan shook her head. No one could detect any emotion on her face. She acted like what was happening didn't have anything to do with her.

Justin looked at Mack and there wasn't any expression on his face. He averted his gaze and look at the crowd.

"Is there anyone who supports him"

No one dares to breathe loudly while they look at the floor, avoiding each other's eyes. The room was silent as a graveyard. Susan saw this and a sigh escaped from her mouth. She had long expected this.

'Who would be foolish enough to go against the leader of a camp? And for him to be the leader of the camp. It wasn't there for a joke. If Merab could be that powerful, then how powerful would he be?'

'I guess his previous fame and background clouded his thinking.' Susan thought.

"Turn and see the people you are fighting for."

Mack didn't need to turn to realize what was happening. His heart miss a bit and his nerves tightened. His breathing was frantic. He was lost.

'Am I wrong?'
