### Summary
The current chapter centers on the theme of defiant perseverance, as the protagonist's allies physically fight back against the undead. A powerful kick delivered to a zombie, however, creates a new threat, as it is revealed to be a "copy zombie" that has now learned the devastating move. This development is complicated by a game-like rule affecting the antagonists; the original Chaerin and her forces are also invested in prolonging the current "round," as a premature end would reset the damage they have inflicted. The chapter continues to spotlight the growth of the supporting cast, with Seonyeong's recent, literal growth in height—a visual metaphor for her newfound confidence—drawing significant reader attention. This moment of ally empowerment is contrasted with ongoing psychological warfare, as Seyeong Jin criticizes protagonist Huisu Kim's refusal to give up, a hypocritical accusation given that the original Chaerin is the architect of the entire deadly scenario. Reader comments also note the presence of a dark "yuri" subtext influencing the conflict.
