God of Time System: Harem in the Zombie Apocalypse

Turning to my left, I saw the empty apartment where I took Caroline and locked the door from the inside.

'How long before the zombies break in?'

[25 Minutes: 36 Seconds]

'Hmmm… this should be enough, but we are now trapped in this apartment with about…' I thought as I looked at the side quest

[Kill all the Zombies on the Top Floor

Lesser E-Grade Zombie: 94

E-Grade Zombie: 13

Lesser D-Grade Zombie: 4

Reward: Passive Time Points Regeneration(Skill)]

I had already thrown every heavy object within this apartment, down to the bottom to farm for Exp. I then kept pensively thinking about how to deal with over a hundred zombies all at once. My eyes looked at the System and my skills, and after thinking a while…

'I guess we can do that.'

I then waited for the next 10 mins and saw Caroline slowly getting back to proper health. Her eyes were a bit darker than before but her status was back to what it was with not much change in it, so I put it at the back of my head for now.

"You okay?" I asked to confirm, and she nodded before speaking,"what happened? How come we are here all of a sudden?" and I noticed that she was having a hard time remembering what just happened.

"What's the last thing you remember?" I asked as I kept checking the timing of the door breaking.

"Me getting angry and attacking those zombies, before losing some strength and you taking over me… and then we moved up…" She spoke, and I nodded before speaking,"you will probably remember in a moment, so take some rest and once you are feeling better, inform me.

Then I leave her as I recharge my Time Points using the Active Time Regeneration before moving towards the balcony of the living room and opening it before moving towards the master bedroom and getting to its balcony as well.

I calculated the distance between the balconies and it was enough for a man to almost jump from one to another if he was athletic enough.

"Hey, I am fine now," Caroline came with a worried expression. 'Seems like she has recalled everything. Good.'

"It might sound a bit absurd, but can you attract the zombies from the other side and use your abilities to jump from there to here?" I speak in all seriousness and though her eyes are a bit scared, she looks at me and slowly nods.

'She is hesitant… I guess, I have to use Plan B,' I thought as I shook my head and spoke,"okay, forget it. Stand here and wait for me. I will be attracting the zombies and jumping from the other side. Just make sure to catch me if I fail to make it, okay?"

Hearing my words, her eyes widened as she almost was going to reject my Plan-B, but then…

I kissed her to reassure her before I spoke,"it is okay. If it wasn't possible, I wouldn't even have recommended doing it." and then moved out of the balcony and closed the door from the outside. Then, moving into the living room, I closed the door of the master bedroom from outside as well.

Time passed slowly before the door finally broke and all the zombies began running towards me and I ran towards the balcony and jumped at the railing before…

I used all my strength as I jumped to the other side. I almost made it to the other side, but I was still a few inches away from touching the balcony on the other side.

-Thud! Caroline caught me immediately and then pulled me up hurriedly.

"Huff… huff… I am an idiot to think that I would have made that jump… thanks Caroline," I spoke as I turned around to see the zombies trying to reach me from the other balcony. It was actually the same thing that happened in my apartment, with zombies trying to reach Caroline and after a few seconds.

-Creek!!! The railing broke, and the zombies began falling down one after the other. I turned to Caroline as I smiled before speaking,"looks like we did it."

However, before Caroline could breathe a sigh of relief, she looked behind me with her eyes turning a bit shocked and I turned around, only to find one zombie standing there, observing me with a keen expression.

Watching it looking at me like that sent chills down my spine before he slowly disappeared in the living room and after a few moments I heard the sound of the bedroom door opening. My heartbeat raced even more because I couldn't comprehend a zombie opening a door all by itself.

The door opened and the zombie appeared in the doorway; then I saw the zombie slowly walking towards the balcony door and slowly opening the glass door as well.

[Inspect!]

[Thinker(Lesser D-Grade Zombie): Zombie that has evolved and gained the ability to think. Common things like opening or closing the door would be a piece of cake for it.

Reward: +125 Exp]

[Temporal Deceleration!]

-Stab! x 4

[You have killed a Thinker!]

[+125 Exp]

My eyes looked at the dead zombie as I was waiting for my reward to come up, however even after waiting for a while, I still didn't see any message.

[Side Quest!]

[Kill all the Zombies on the Top Floor

Lesser D-Grade Zombie: 2

Reward: Passive Time Points Regeneration(Skill)]

'Shit!' I thought before slowly moving towards the zombie in front and proceeding to take out its core from its body and keeping it in my dimensional storage. While I needed Caroline to absorb the core, it would take hours for it to be done.

So I decided to kill the other two zombies first. First, I moved towards the top with Caroline and slowly reached the entrance of the gym, where I found another horrifying scene that made my heart skip a beat.

One of the Lesser D-Grade zombies was trying to eat the face of the dead D-Grade zombie and if I am not wrong, he wasn't trying to eat the flesh exactly but… the core of the D-Grade zombie.
