Temporal Deceleration still had 4 seconds left, and I hurried as much as possible

Time started flowing normally as soon as all the zombies were killed

'Huff… huff… huff… Piece of… huff… cake,' I thought as I sat on the floor catching my breath. While I did have a lot of agility and power, I lacked enough constitution to maintain it. I must level up and get the constitution to at least 10 or else I might end up in a situation where I won't be able to even crawl away from those monsters.

After a few minutes, I got my stamina back, and I stood up and looked around

'Now, back to the missions. Finding any beautiful girls in the girls' locker room,' I thought with determination and focus. And with concentration beyond imagination, I walked towards the shower room with rekindled hope.

What I had seen a few moments ago, I knew it would be a bitter memory for the rest of my life, but at least… a man can hope. I proceeded to the shower room but…

'That's not fair!' I almost spoke out loud but stopped my thoughts as I looked at all the dead zombies who had been eaten inside out in the shower room. Man! This isn't even cool anymore…

Well… whatever.

I shook my head and released all the nonsense from my head before turning at the Lesser D-grade zombie, Walker. Moving closer to it, I used my inspect skill again, but with a much more narrowed gaze and…

[E-Grade Zombie Core found!]

'Hmmm..' I then began breaking the skull of that zombie and viola! There was a red coloured small spherical gem in it. Its size was comparable to my thumb, and it had an ominous feeling about it.

[System Warning!]

[A foreign energy is trying to invade your genes and bind with it!]

[Would you like to proceed with the binding?]

[Yes/No]

I observed the message and turned to examine the core before wondering about the possibilities of absorbing the core.

'Since it is genetic and that guy down there almost won against the zombie genes… Does that mean if someone wins over the zombie genes, he mutates? Though… that is too ambiguous,' I pondered over it before selecting the 'No' option.

While it is really exciting to think that you may gain zombie powers… I would rather stay human till I die. Though am I really a human with the system bound to me?

Not dwelling much on the thought, I moved out of the locker and then reached back to the exit where I came from. I moved down and found Caroline barely awake before I reached her and said,"Well, why don't you sleep for a while?"

She looked at me and shook her head as she spoke,"I can stay awake for a few more hours. Did you clear the top floor?"

At her words, I pondered a little before telling her about the situation there,"there are a lot of zombies up there. I don't know how many but more than 50, probably. I am guessing there are survivors up there who are attracting those zombies."

She looked at me with a wide-eyed expression of slight horror and sadness as she spoke,"do you have a way to save them?"

"I am thinking," I said as I pondered a little before speaking,"I might need your help, but I want you to be in perfect condition and not half asleep."

She looked at me with a thoughtful gaze before sighing as she spoke,"all right. I will sleep, but please stay close to me, will you?"

I nodded, and we both moved towards the nearest room and reached the bed and she went to sleep. Maybe because of exhaustion she falls asleep immediately and I try to see how much time it would take for her to wake up. 𝗳𝘳𝒆𝘦𝑤𝐞𝚋𝗻𝚘𝘷𝘦𝙡.𝑐𝐨𝘮

[9 hours: 13 minutes: 12 seconds]

'Hmmm… ' I then took out the zombie core and wondered if I should let the zombie core be absorbed by her, but on another thought, I let it go. It won't be right after all the trust she had put in me, and also I should talk about it to her first.

After a few seconds, I decided to check out my other new skill on her as I proceeded to touch her head and focus on her sleep

[Basic Time Manipulation Activated!]

I then saw the time which she needed to wake up and sure enough,

[36 minutes: 48 seconds]

I removed my hand and noticed that the timer became normal again, with which I concluded that touch is required for this ability to work, which once again limited the amount of uses this ability has right now.

From that point onwards, I touched her hand, at which she grabbed back mine subconsciously and I gulped before staying there for the next 36 minutes. While the activity did take Time Points, the regeneration rate of Time Points was faster, so there was little problem with that.

About 37 minutes later, 𝑓𝚛𝚎ℯ𝘸𝙚𝘣𝚗𝘰νeƖ.c𝒐𝐦

I saw her slowly rubbing her eyes as she left my hand and woke up. She turns at me and then a really sad look comes to her eyes before she speaks,"it wasn't a dream, was it?"

I smiled before nodding and speaking,"I wish it were."

She asked me if something happened while she was asleep and I shook my head before I proceeded to tell her about my findings regarding the core. I told her about the core using my own beliefs and hypothesis and after she heard everything regarding evolving zombies and the possibilities of humans evolving as well; she was engrossed deep in thought about it.

"I know it is hard to believe-" I was about to explain to her about the whole situation a bit more clearer however,

"It is okay. I believe you," she smiled at me before looking at me as she continued,"you aren't the type of person who would lie unless extremely necessary. I believe you."

I looked at her… she was in deep sh*t love with me… and it was kind of scary, to be honest.
