"Ummm… why are we doing this exactly?" Caroline asks me with a really confused face as she first looked at me before looking at the microwave in my arms.

"Huppp… ah.. there it goes," I said after throwing the microwave down the balcony and saying,"well that is because…"

"... I just want to reduce their numbers as much as possible before I go down," I explained it to her and she, after pondering a little, nodded as she spoke,"it sounds logical but feels useless to be honest."

"Maybe. I am just increasing my chances of surviving this mess," I speak before throwing another heavy object down.

[Ding!]

[You have killed an E-Grade Zombie!]

'This is the 8th E-Grade Zombie,' I thought with my face turning serious and observing me turning all serious, she tenses up before asking,"what happened?"

I shook my head before muttering,"nothing," and then focusing on her face as I said,"Let's go to the last apartment on this floor."

Up until now, we have been through 5 apartments. Killed 4 zombies in the process, collected more supplies and weapons, but we didn't find any real weapons.

'At least, we got something out of it,' I thought, looking at all that experience I gained from killing zombies by throwing heavy objects.

'Need about 115 Exp, that'd be about 5 zombies,' I thought as I moved towards the final apartment, closest to the emergency stairways.

"Why were you here though?" I asked without turning back.

"To meet you and talk to you about… what happened before," she spoke in a low voice and I sighed before answering,

"It is okay, I guess there is little we can do about it. For now, let's focus on what's our priority," I spoke with a little bit of regret before finally reaching the apartment.

The door was broken as well, just like all the other apartment doors. I slowly opened the gate and saw a zombie standing right at the front gate without any movements. He was looking in my direction and we both were staring at each other for the next few seconds.

I smiled at him, he flinched a little. Then I positioned the knife at him with the same smile plastered on my face and he flinched a little more

-Rwar!

-Stab!

[Ding!]

I ignored the message and moved to check the guest room which was empty.

'Living room. Empty'

'Kitchen. Empty'

'Master Bedroom. Empty'

'Balconies. Empty'

'First Inner Room. Empty'

"Kyaaaaa!!!!" I heard Caroline shouting before running in my direction and hugging me as tightly as she could. My eyes turned towards the door before I asked,"what happened?"

She turned towards that gate before pointing her fingers there.

I gulped a little before slowly moving towards that direction one step at a time. It was the second inner room of the apartment. I got out of the first inner room and moved towards the half opened gate slowly.

Caroline was slowly walking behind me grabbing one of my arms while looking towards that door.

"They…were… eating," Caroline spoke with a muffled voice with a horrified face.

I reached the gate and opened the door fully only to find a disgusting scene which I was expecting but wishing that it won't be that way.

Two zombies were eating another zombie and looking at it, it almost made me puke but I held it in as I used my [Inspect] skill on them.

[E-Grade Zombie]

[Reward for killing: +50 Exp!]

With the level of my inspect skill, this was all I could see and it was at this moment I decided that I need to up my [Inspect] skill.

"Caroline, can you leave this to me and wait for a few moments outside?" I spoke in a low voice and Caroline looked at me with a wide eyed expression.

I turned at her before speaking,"Trust me. I am not trying anything beyond my capabilities."

She, after a few seconds of hesitation, nodded before leaving from there.

[Time Points: 70/70]

I moved closer to them, and once I reached almost 5 steps away from them, I saw one of them standing slowly before turning to me.

I took a step back and the other one stood up too before both of them started to walk towards me. I saw them walking almost as fast as a normal person at their full speed which made me gulp a little before

[Temporal Deceleration]

Time slowed and not wasting time

-Stab!

The first stab didn't do the job so I went for another

-Stab!

[Ding!]

Then I jumped towards the other one and stabbed it in the neck a bit above the center

-Stab!

[Ding!]

[Level up +1]

[Skill points +2]

[New skill acquired!]

I saw the messages as time turned back to normal and I started breathing a little loudly. I felt my heart beating really fast and calming myself down. I checked what new skill I acquired.

[Time Storage(Level 1): Allows the user to store an object in a multidimensional Time Frozen Space

Restrictions: The object must be non-living. The object cannot be more than 1 cubic meter in area. The user can store only one object at a time]

I read that skill one time… twice, five times and I still could not believe that I got such a reality breaking skill. I know it can store only one object at a time but still… This was really something to be honest.

"Michael… Are you alive?" I heard a voice from the outside and I stopped smiling and spoke,

"Don't jinx me, will you?"
