God of Time System: Harem in the Zombie Apocalypse

"Ah! That… actually is because I kind of knew about the whole situation around Myla and whatnot," I spoke as I recalled bits about the whole thing.

"Huh?" Myla turned at me while Caroline felt something interesting was going to come up, so she listened carefully while the others straightened their ears as well.

"Since you don't know, I will repeat it again. Mom told me a bit about Myla and how she was related to the military and her life was in danger because of her father being a prominent figure. Mom warned me not to get too involved with Myla, but oh well, let's just say I didn't listen to her.

Because I was curious, I searched around from the opposite direction and looked deeper into the military and our national leaders and stuff.

While I can't get into restricted information, I still can at least find their pictures and names. I kind of found the picture of most of the leaders. Sergeants, majors, etc. And looked into their faces and matched them with Myla's. Because of her special olive hair and eye color, it wasn't hard to figure out who the father was. Commander Sergeant Major, Lucas Keith.

Though it wasn't just that, I looked into videos where Keith got awards and other stuff. In fact, I even participated in an event a year later where the winner gets to meet the army personnel and ask any questions and stuff. I won and ended up meeting your father then and when I met him… I kind of… talked with him in private.

I told him about how I reached him and about Myla and stuff from where I got to know a few things left and right. Surprisingly, rather than getting angry, he was really happy with my tenacity and wits, also telling me about Myla and her achievements with a proud face. Nothing too much but enough to make me satisfied."

I told them what I did and almost all of them looked at me with a surprised expression.

"You went that far… for me?" Myla asked with her cheeks turning a bit red, though I rejected her within a second,"nope. Not for you. I mean, I was really curious about you and stuff, but not enough to go that far. What really motivated me was… the fact it felt like a challenge."

Her expression changed a little, but I still continued,

"It was like a thrill ride. To find someone you aren't supposed to. To look for a person whom you might never meet. To find the existence of someone whom people don't know that she exists.. It was that kind of thrill. And to be honest, the reward was worth it."

I spoke with a satisfied smile and all of them looked at me like I was a weirdo or something, but honestly, I don't care much. I come with my own perks.

"We are almost there," spoke Jeff as he looked at the Libra building.

"Park outside the main gate," I said and Jeff did that before all of us got out of the jeep. Just like before, Jeff, Shawn, and Clara stayed while Myla came with me, along with Alex and Caroline.

Entering the building, I saw White and George talking with each other before they looked in our direction and started walking towards us as well.

"That wasn't too late," White spoke with a bit of surprise, and I smiled before introducing Myla to the others. Myla greeted George and White before I began explaining their purpose and what Alex had found as well.

"Well. I will follow whatever you say," George spoke, and I nodded at him while White had a pondering expression before he spoke out,

"That is a bit troubling."

"Why so?" I asked and he explained,"Actually, we were planning to save the people in the building beside us. There are quite a few survivors there as well, some of them relatives and friends of those here. I don't think your military friend can wait till then, can she?"

"Wait, you have more people here?" Surprised, Myla spoke as she looked at me before I nodded as I turned to Myla and asked,"How long can you wait for?"

Rather than answering my question, she asked again,"how many?"

"About 50?" I answered, and she made a surprised expression before I asked again,"how long can you wait for?"

"Ah! Yeah.. no… as you know we have to return and report by the eve… I don't think we can wait at all," she spoke with a sad expression. Though not minding much, I looked at Alex,

"25 kilometers with that jeep. How long is a return trip?"

"30 mins," Alex answered immediately and then I pondered a little before turning to George,

"Can you give me a report on that building?"

"Wait! What are you doing?" Myla asked, but George ignored her and began speaking,

"75 Floors? I think all the floors except the top floor are infested. The survivors number is around… 15, I think?"

I nodded before walking slowly towards the building next to us as I looked at it and muttered,

"Should take about… 15 minutes? Let's finish it within 10."

I then turned to them as I spoke,"I will go see things with my own two eyes. Wait for about an hour and if I don't come back then-"

"No. No more going alone, I will be coming with you," Caroline said with a determined face and looking at her, I first thought to persuade her, but then I decided it would be better to show her my new powers. That way, she will have more confidence in me.

"Me too," Myla spoke with the same determination as Caroline and I kind of sighed before speaking,"sure, I guess."

It's not like I was trying to hide things from anyone, but I don't want to scare them for no reason. After all, people like Myla and Jeff, who know nothing about me, will only get scared if they see me using even half of my powers.

Normally I won't even care, but Myla is someone I know, so the least I can do is to be considerate wherever I can.

"You guys watch the area," I said as I looked at the others and they nodded before I started moving towards the neighboring building. It was about time I used my newfound powers as well… and also reach Level 11.
