C89: Farewell

I Have to Be a Great Villain - Masterpost

Summary: The zombie tide has invaded the city, forcing Qin Xian to head to the frontlines to deal with the threat. Meanwhile, Wang Yi gets attacked by a zombie during house arrest and defeats it before entering the streets, where he successfully orders another zombie to stop attacking him.

Wang Yi: (What's going on?) WY: I...seem to be WY: Able to mind control zombies? WY [walkie talkie]: Ah, I suddenly started nosebleeding, it hurts a lot... Qin Xian: Don't move, I'll look for you. QX: Keep an eye on the walls, I'll be gone for 10 minutes. Underling: Yes!

WY [walkie talkie]: Hey, don't be so anxious, I'm fine. WY [walkie talkie]: Isn't it good that I can control zombies now? WY [walkie talkie]: I can just chase them all out and—pewpew Qin Xian: You're already infected, can you stop f**king laughing!!!!!

WY: .... WY: Haha. [SPECIFICATION: Although ability users turn into zombies slower than ordinary people, they can also be infected and die from the zombie virus. After turning into a zombie, their abilities are still preserved for the zombie's use.] WY [walkie talkie]: It's because I know there's no way back now that I'm infected. (You can't reverse the zombification process.) WY [walkie talkie]: So it's pointless to grieve. Might as well think of things I can do instead. Qin Xian: .... QX [walkie talkie]: How were you...infected? An injury? WY (smacking zombie to death): No. WY: I was never injured. That's why I feel like this is fate. WY: God wants me dead, but I was so well protected there was no chance for accidental deaths, so only a virus infection would do. QX [walkie talkie]: But I...don't want you to go. WY: Sorry... *digging for something* WY: I actually think this isn't a bad ending. WY: Zombies have no issues with stamina, so it's really convenient to use my powers. WY (with megaphone): Hello, hello? WY: (Great, it's working.) WY: Of course, that's as long as I'm still sane.

QX: .....! QX: Are you planning to— Wang Yi: Hello, hello— WY [megaphone]: ALL ZOMBIES PRESENT. WY [megaphone]: FOLLOW ME! Ability Activated: Mind Control WY [megaphone]: Humans don't need to come. WY [megaphone]: When it's all over tomorrow, everyone can go back to their peaceful, stable lives. Qin Xian: WANG YI?! QX: Don't be a fool, your body's still human right now! WY: Oh, Adjutant Qin's here? WY: Perfect, there's a favor I need to ask you. WY: I'm planning to climb on top of the city walls—to completely destroy the zombie tide. QX: ...... QX: Why.... QX: Why did it turn out like this...? Although I did my best...it still...still— WY: I said this was the best outcome. Otherwise, even if we stop the zombie tide, there'll be heavy casualties. There's no better bargain than sacrificing my life to protect all the people in the city. So... WY: Let me go, all right? QX: If I say no...will you listen. WY: Adjutant Qin won't refuse me. WY: Because in your heart, you also know— WY: What you need to do to save this place. WY: Qin Xian. WY: Come send me off for the last time?

QX: *grits teeth* QX: All units, listen up. QX: Collect all gasoline in the city and pour them over the city walls! WY [megaphone]: ALL ZOMBIES, LISTEN TO MY ORDERS. WY [megaphone]: LEAVE THE CITY—LEAVE THE CITY—AND THEN— WY [megaphone]: THOROUGHLY SLAUGHTER EACH OTHER!

Soldiers: Light the fires! WY [megaphone]: YOU CAN FIGHT EACH OTHER OR TEAR EACH OTHER APART! WY [megaphone]: ALL OF YOU, KEEP FIGHTING UNTIL YOU HAVE NO MORE STRENGTH TO CRAWL— Soldier 1: A single zombie...lit so many others on fire... Soldier 2: They're really—killing each other? WY: (Huff...exhausting.) WY: (Is it still pushing the limits to control so many zombies at once?) S-0: Host, you don't have much time left. S-0: It should've taken one day for the zombie transformation to finish, but because you overused your abilities, you're going to lose your mind very soon. WY: Yeah, I know. WY: Wait for me...to say farewell.

WY: Hey, Qin Xian. I need to go. WY: Give me some gasoline and explosives, all right. WY: I don't want to burden them by turning into some half-human, half-monster thing. QX: ..... QX: Do you want to drive me insane? Qin Xian tosses Wang Yi the gasoline. WY: Hey, there's nothing else we can do. WY: Thanks. *pours* WY: The next life. WY: If we can meet again. WY: Let's stay together.* QX: ....! QX: ...what? QX: Are you pitying me? Saying vague things like a next life! WY: It's not pity. WY: It's a promise. WY: I believe our future selves will meet again. WY: Does Adjutant want to try believing, too?

*Let's stay together （我们在一起) - also a way to say "let's be a couple together"

I Have to Be a Great Villain - Wang Yi

Art by 黑昀_

Goodbye, my lover

Artist’s Notes: Based on the latest knives (read: angst) chapter [c89]. The roses are covering the half of Wang Yi’s body that zombified, including his eye, neck, and surrounding skin. I wanted to draw the idea of Qin Xian burying Wang Yi.

(Original raws: 根据新一话的刀子画的 玫瑰花遮住的是王亿变成丧尸的那一半眼睛 脖子上和眼睛都画了丧尸的皮肤， 想画秦现埋葬王亿的感觉)

ch 89 translation here

also a good companion piece to this art if i think about it
