I saw the quest in front of my eyes before turning left at the door at the 34th Floor. Currently, I was sitting against the door of the first apartment on the opposite side of the door where the Zombies were.

I sighed as I buried my face on palms as I recalled the face of George once again. Earlier I wasn't concentrating but when I began thinking deeply about it…

'What if it were Caroline? Or perhaps my brother William?' I thought, feeling a sudden unexplainable heartache that was slowly taking over my mental health.

Caroline and Alex were still sleeping above. I checked their status, and they were still fine, which was a relief. If I use [Advanced Time Manipulation] I can help them back up but I for now… I just want them to sleep.

White is helping George and together they are holding the rest of the survivors up there.

'The best way is to go alone… the risk is higher but at least Caroline won't be hurt as much…' I thought giving out a dry chuckle as I joked ever so silently,

"Maybe I can farm all the Zombies by myself."

For the next few seconds, I kept my eyes closed and thought about the whole thing over and over… if I go alone versus If I go with the others… Maybe I should have gone alone from the start…

'Man! Why am I feeling sad about the people that I didn't even know about,' I sighed loudly as a single tear dropped off my eyes as I recalled the faces of Adam and Blake before I wiped it?

I stood up with a slight jump and smiled as I stretched a little before moving towards the gate where the Zombies were going to come through.

[Temporal Declaration!]

I activated it at 50% before opening the door and then used my weapon to slash the Zombies on my front. It wasn't hard… At this point, I was numbed to the messages that reflected on my system.

Killed a few more Zombies and then closed the door from the inside, before I kept moving forward as I continued killing those Zombies one by one.

Another 10 minutes passed, and I did not know on which floor I had reached… though all my knives were broken at this point. I sighed as I looked at the incoming zombies in front of me.

My Time points also were in single digits at this point and I sighed before moving back up to the 34th floor. I yawned a little before closing the door of the 34th floor.

[Level 9 (38530/50000 Exp)]

I looked at the number of zombies and the Exp I needed to get to the next level. Though my interest in them was a kind of reduced at this point.

I moved up and saw White talking with George with a serious expression, but they turned quiet for a few moments before moving towards me. I reached them and George asked,

"How are things down there?"

I saw his expressionless face and spoke,"same as before. Though, all my knives are broken… I kind of came here to restock, if you don't mind."

He nodded before asking,"So when will you be teaching me?"

I looked at him and recalled that yeah, there was something like that. I promised to teach him about Zombie energy absorption and after pondering a little I said,"Let's go down then."

So many things happened that I kind of forgot about the Zombie cores… I decided that it would be better to move down and take out the Zombie cores from the D-Grade Zombie as well as Lesser D-Grade Zombies as well.

He made a bit of a confused expression but still followed me along with White, who was equally curious. Hmmm… ah! White too hasn't seen me taking out the core. I guess I can explain to him as well.

We then moved down, and I took out the Core from the Lesser D-Grade Zombies one by one, finally reaching the D-Grade Zombie… I saw his head crushed completely and noticed that the core was broken as well.

The system wasn't picking up the core as well, so I guess the Core must have been gone. Though not minding much, I took out the Zombie cores of all the Lesser D-Grades.

Soon we had about 25 E-Grade Zombie cores and I put them all in a small pouch, gave it to him.

He looked at the pea sized cores in the pouch before turning at me and I said,"try taking one out and let the energy fill inside your body."

Without any second thought, he took out a zombie core and began absorbing the core. It didn't take him much time. Compared to Caroline, it took him about 15 minutes to absorb the core.

'How long will it take him to settle the energy absorbed from the core?' I asked the system.

[20 hours: 13 minutes: 15 seconds]

"You should let the energy settle inside your body before taking another one. A safe margin should be a day," I spoke, and he nodded before moving away from there.

'How long till the Zombie genes take over him?' I asked the system again

[15 days: 12 minutes: 19 seconds]

Well… I guess it should be easier for him to absorb the energy and he should be able to check the energy as well once he gets stronger.

'For those who are gaining energy without any core, I guess it should take about 3 to 4 months before every surviving human gets their Zombification process completed by itself naturally. So that means everyone should be at least an F-Grade Zombified human by the end of 3 months, huh?'

'Though… I guess the closer you are to Zombies, the faster your Zombification process. Probably some people will get that power within a week or two… Hmmm, doesn't that mean some have already reached that point?'

I thought as I realized that the world had started changing in another direction and that too at an extremely rapid rate.
