God of Time System: Harem in the Zombie Apocalypse

Chapter 271 Changed Reality

My eyes looked at those kids for a couple of seconds before I moved out of the courtroom, leaving the question-filled face unanswered. I then took out my phone and observed Caroline calling me already,

-Click!

-Michael! What happened?! DId you do something? Why am I suddenly back at our college?

"I will talk once I get there. For now, take care of yourself and don't make any moves. Lie low, okay?" I spoke as something didn't feel right about this.

-Okay.. everything is fine, right? I am getting a bad feeling

Caroline asked with a worry filled voice and I nodded as I answered,"yes. It's fine. Don't worry. We will meet soon. Till then, you stay with Alissa and do your part of your work, okay?"

-Okay. Take care Michael. Love you. Click

The call got disconnected as I walked out of the dorm before pondering a little.. Just what could have gone wrong-

-Bzzz Bzzz

'Hmm? Is it Caroline again?' I thought as I looked at the phone only to find something unbelievable on it..

[Leeway Rosalyn]

The phone showed, making my eyes widen as I looked at the phone number.. It was my best friend's. The one who died a long time ago in that valentine incident.

"Just what is going on here?" My eyes were puzzled. I could feel my blood pumping a little more than before..

The call was cut off before.. it rang again

[Leeway Rosalyn]

-Click!

-Hey Michael, are you there?

A familiar voice, which should have not been present at this time, spoke from the other side. There was no mistaking it.. it was him..

-Hello? Moshi Moshi!

"Yeah.." I answered with a broken tone and he hurriedly began speaking,

-Ah! Why weren't you answering? Anyway, scratch that.. Can you meet with me immediately? I need your help. Urgent! I.. can't explain this, but I believe you can help me.. you are the only one I can trust. Mike, will be waiting for you at the usual spot?

"Sure," I answered as the call got cut and I just closed my eyes for a couple of seconds. I was focused really deeply as I pondered about what could have happened and what I should do next.. and what is the purpose of all this happening? Seems like things just got interesting again.

"The usual spot, huh?" I thought of one place that came to mind when I thought about that..

I then took a deep breath as I moved out and, not pondering much, I looked for the most urgent flight back to my city. It should take about 7-8 hours but since we don't have much time..

[Skill Time Reduction has been set to be used in [Multiple Copy] Slot]

'How long will it take to reach if I run at my full speed to my city?' I pondered as I wondered if I could use my flash steps continuously or not.. more likely I can give my [Ethereal] body.

[8 Hours: 15 minutes: 14 seconds]

'The next flight is in 6 hours, but the landing and everything else will take more time. Even reaching the spot from the airport will take about an hour or two,' I pondered a little as I thought of a possibility before a smile appeared on my face..

'What if I remove inertia using [Time Rejection]? Will it be possible?' I gave it a thought for a couple of seconds before trying it using the future vision.. and yes it worked perfectly.. that was a bit scary and overwhelming though.historical

And then I closed my eyes as I activated my ability

[Time Reduction!]

[Time Reduction(Copy)!]

[Time Rejection!]

'Take a deep breath and..'

-BOOOM!!

I jumped as fast as I could towards the place where my supposedly dead best friend was supposed to be..

-BOOOM!!!

-BOOOM!!

-BOOOM!!

Each step of mine was creating more blasts than before as I accelerated more and more.

[Time Rejection!]

[Time Rejection!]

I had to use that skill over and over again without any breaks as I ran with my eyes closed. [Space-Time Map] was my only guide at this speed as I ran from land to water, faster and faster.

Time passed as I kept running and running, without giving myself any breaks. I did not know how much time passed as I ran at my full speed that I was currently capable of using all my skills in the arsenal.

And after some time, I finally saw land again as a familiar city appeared in front of me and, taking a deep breath, I jumped in the sky to not create problems for those on the land. While using the same principle, I accelerated so fast; I decelerated in the sky while I kept using the [Time Rejection] over and over.

And soon.. I stopped in my tracks as I reached deep into the city. I made sure to land on a roof where nobody was, making sure I didn't gather any unnecessary attention.

'How much time did it take me to reach here?' I questioned as I looked at the status and

[1 Hours: 23 minutes: 13 seconds]

"Hah! Hah!" my lungs were hurting a lot as I fell on my back on the roof. I could feel my legs breaking apart as I could feel them throbbing incessantly.

For a couple of minutes, I just lay there as I used [Time Rejection!] over and over to heal myself. Though I was hurting, it was slowly fading away as well. And as I caught my breath back, I stood up and began walking again. I still had to meet that idiot at that meet up point.

-BZZZ BZZZ! The phone rang again as I saw the same number dialing again

[Leeway Rosalyn]

-Click! Hey! Where the heck are you? I have been waiting for an hour now? You okay right?

"Just a few things came up, but I should be there in about.. 15 minutes?" I spoke as I caught my breath, and hearing my heavy breaths, he panicked a little.

-Hey! Hey! You sound like you ran two marathons at once.. take your time, bud.. no need to overexert yourself. I will be waiting here.

"It's okay. I will be there," I then cut the call as I looked at the door of the roof before looking at the building connected to this one.

"Guess I will be taking the shortcut then," I chuckled as I began running again.. this time a lot slower.. from one roof to another.
