"Let's start with that one," I said as I looked at a building from a distance.

In this whole area, or should I say, in this part of the city, there were about 5 buildings with more than 50 floors. About 8-10 apartment complexes with 20-30 floors, and many more had about 5-10 floors each.

The amount of houses were actually less in comparison to the buildings.

Most of the houses and villas were located in the west part of the city where the richest of the richest stayed. While the east part of the city was filled with entertainment areas, almost all the malls and bigger cinemas, parks, etc. were located in the eastside.

'The north had educational institutes while this place was more of a residential area,' I thought as I started moving towards the nearest building.

Today's goal was to clear all the buildings and apartments within 2 kilometers of the Libra building, which included 1 more building and 2 apartment complexes. The rest were smaller buildings.

-Booom!!!

[You have killed an E-Grade Zombie!]

[+50 Exp]

And thus marked the beginning of the massacre of all the zombies around.historical

'The building is about 60 floors high, so it should take about an hour or so to clear it? I wonder if there would be any survivors in it,' I thought as I kept killing all the zombies as fast as I could.

My main plan wasn't just to rid the place of the zombies around the area, but it was more like I wanted to get to a higher level faster. While I did improve enough to deal with most of the zombies, it won't be long before an A-Grade or higher appears.

'I haven't even dealt with a B-Grade properly, forget about an A-Grade,' I thought as I recalled things taking a wild turn in the dungeon a few floors before I even reached Floor 63 where the B-Grade was supposed to be.

It wasn't just that, though..

'Night Crawlers,' I thought as I realized that even after getting so strong, we were still running away from them. Makes me wonder how strong they were to make Erina believe that we should avoid them as much as possible.

'And if they are going to appear so fast, I should rather kill every zombie around, making sure no nightcrawler is born around the area and also, create a safe zone fast and strong enough so that I could openly deal with any and all types of zombies,' I thought as I tried thinking of all the ways I can improve my base.

'Hmmm.. now that I think about it, I haven't visited Rhea.. oh, wait! Fuck!' I thought as I hurriedly killed all the zombies in the building, clearing it completely before a message appeared.

[New Side Quest!]

[Clear the South Area of the Black Water City!]

[Kill all the Zombies! Total Zombies Remaining: 540219

Reward: +20 Skill Points]

'Hmmm nice,' I thought before reaching a nearby comfortable room where I lay on the bed and then asked,

'How long before anyone attacks me?'

[17 Days: 12 Hours: 15 Minutes!]

'Double nice,' I thought before activating my ability

[Second Space!]

Entering the area, I found a sleeping beauty taking a nap on a sofa in the center of an almost empty room.

Mischievously, I wanted to scare her a bit, but before I could even take a step,

"Mmm.. you are back? How long has it been? I thought you.. " then her eyes opened up wide as she looked at me with a careful look. Dashing towards me at full speed, she held me by my shoulders as she looked at me carefully.

Or more like she was looking deep into my eyes, as if trying to confirm whatever she was looking at. And after a few seconds of stillness,

"You!... What.. What the heck happened in the dungeon?!"

My eyes observed her with a bit of an awkward smile before speaking,"Kind of a few things?"

Looking at her expression, it seemed like she wanted to know everything that happened there and not minding much; I pondered a bit as I muttered,

"Hmmm.. I think I should start from the beginning."

She nodded before she clicked her fingers and two chairs formed, one behind her and another behind me. She then sat as her eyes urged me to sit as well.

Sitting with a bit of an awkward smile, I began telling her everything that had happened in the dungeon. Starting from the beginning, then meeting Erina and then the Night Crawlers, that Elf and that Sand Troll, getting killed by Kira, System notification, God Powers, and then fighting Kira.

I kind of ended up telling everything with a keen interest and she too looked at me with a baffled look as she just kept gazing at me. The only thing that I didn't tell her was about the [God Hunter] and the class [Human Demi-God]

"So that's the.. capability.. of [Time Accelerate]?" she spoke with a dazed expression as she looked at me with eyes still in disbelief.

"What?" confused I asked, but she just kept murmuring,"or was it.. you.. should I even hope?.. I don't want to, but.. Looks like.. we still have hope."

I tried asking her again, but she just stood up and took a deep sigh before taking a look at me again and then asked,

"What is your next step, Michael?"

That question was totally off topic and it threw me in a bit of a loop, but still I answered with honesty,"Get strong enough to deal with problems of 'that' level as soon as possible."

By 'that' I mean the power to fight against the people who were at the level of Kira.. or perhaps, higher? It was purely my intuition, but it felt like among those at that power level, Kira wasn't the only one I am going to face in the future. There were more people at that level.

'Some even higher than that, maybe?' A slight chill ran down my spine before I shook my head and turned to Rhea who was still observing me.

Then I turned to the plant, because of which I hurried to this space,

[Tree of Crona(Uncommon)

Effects: Generates 15 Cronas per hour.

Limitations: Can store only 2500 Cronas

Special: Evolvable(Require 50,000 Cronas to evolve)]

Taking out the Cronas, I looked at the total Cronas once again. Hmmm.. I then wondered something before I went to the [Shop] where [Daily Sale!] screen was

Sadly, all the things were way above I can afford so I could only sigh before Rhea followed me into the [Shop],

"Michael, come with me."

Hearing her words, I turned to her as she was walking towards a certain area of the shop. As I observed her walking, I finally saw something that my eyes missed when I entered the [Shop].

One of the areas of the shop, which was locked before, was now unlocked.

Walking towards that new blue section, I read what was written on the top of the section.

[Dungeon Manager]

And within that section, there was a certain item available there

[Dungeon Of Libra (Rare Dungeon)]
