God of Time System: Harem in the Zombie Apocalypse

Chapter 310  Training(2)

[Aisha's POV]

That energy escaped from their body, began reforming and joining as it started taking the form of a human… or, to be precise, a humanoid devil.

"Hmmm.. where is this?" the humanoid devil made up of energy spoke. His voice confused, as he tried to feel something before he looked around to see the three girls. Only after he confirmed that he came from them, he then looked at me.

"I can't feel my connection to my original body… Did you do something?" he looked at me, half confused, while he adjusted his half-transparent body in this atmosphere.

"Not really… Who are you, though?" I asked with slight curiosity as I moved closer to him, moving in between the girls and him. It would be quite troublesome if he enters back into their bodies.

"Ah! Introductions! Apologies. My name is Aarick. You may also call me as the Zombie King, the God of Undead," he bowed as he looked at me with a rather gentleman-like appearance. His eyes smiled before he coughed a little,

"Let me shift into a more proper form first," he added before his body became more opaque as his white-haired appearance came into the picture. He had a muscular build with a rather smug look, as if he looked down on everyone in his presence.

"This is better," he smiled as he looked at his form before turning to me,"Now then, where were we? Yeah. Are you the one responsible for this, Miss Aisha?"

My eyes widened a little as I observed him with a bit of a narrowed look.

"Wait! Wait! Wait! I didn't mean anything bad with that question… I just wanted to know what is going on here," he chuckled with a slightly…. scared look? His eyes do seem to be afraid of me. What exactly is he planning?

"How do you know my name?" I asked, getting on the defensive against him. Though as soon as he heard my question, he was dumbfounded before he realized something…

"Ah! You are from quite the past, aren't you? I guess, you, not only crossed realities but also time barriers, huh?" he spoke as if he understood my situation. His attitude reminds me of my father… always knowing everything that is happening… but that smug look is quite irritating.

"I will explain. But first [Sleep and Forget!] Click!" he clicked his fingers as he chanted using divinity, making the three girls fall asleep. He then looked at me as he added,

"If I were to make a guess then, one of the Gods manipulated reality for one reason or another, but this time he or she involved a being who can control time and is unaffected by time. By some alterations or another, a ripple occurred, bringing you into this timeline far and far into the future where you don't exist."

It did seem plausible, but…

"How can you be sure?" I asked as I looked at him, making him smile a little before he spoke,

"Because Miss Aisha. You're already dead in my timeline. Both you and your father."

A chill ran down my spine as I blurted,"that's impossible-"

But he shook his head as he added,"you guys… well, I shouldn't spoil too much, but you died a natural death. I won't tell you of the results of your endeavors, but you didn't die from an enemy or a disease but of natural causes. You and your companions died peacefully. We, including those girls, live in a time far beyond where you existed."

I was… stupefied. I looked at him speaking as he kept observing the area while stretching. His eyes seemed fascinated by this altered reality.

"But then… why am I here?" I was a bit confused. So far in the timeline… how did I even reach here? Or, to be more precise, why exactly at this time?

"Should I make a guess?" he gave a smug look again…

-BOOM!!!

I hit him on the face with irritation as he fell behind.

"Wipe that smug off first. It's irritating," I glared at him, making him chuckle out loud,"all right. All right. I will do so. It's just how my face is though…" he spoke the last line slowly…

"Did you say something?" I asked with my eyes narrowed at him, making him shake his head as he answered,"nope. Nothing. Must have been the air."

I sighed as I looked at him. Seriously? What should I do with him? He is annoying! But oh well… he doesn't smell like a bad person…

"So? What were you saying?" I asked, and he looked at me with that smug look again, making me raise my fist again.

Wiping that smug immediately, he coughed before speaking,"well. You might have used something that brings you closer to the time and place where the reality was bent over. So… this is the place?"

He looked around, trying to analyze the area, but I coughed…

"It's not here. I just came here to train these girls to fight against the God who changed reality," I explained my actions as I observed him.

"A rational approach, huh? Well, you were surely known for being too careful. And I guess, I am not even in my prime with only this much of my power… All right, I will train while I am here," he reached his own conclusion as he observed the area.

"Where are you going?" I asked as I saw him walking away from here. His eyes were rather calm for all the things that were happening.

"Training. Getting stronger. Do you want something from me?" He stopped as he turned around.

I observed his power level. It wasn't exactly strong, but something felt off… similar to what Michael was.

"There is another one here with us. A man named Michael. He is under my protection," I gave him a passive warning and, understanding my intentions, he smiled as he nodded before speaking,

"All right. I will make sure to not let him die in this hellhole. But if he went on his own, he would probably be strong enough to hold out on his own. Also… I assume that all this destruction was done by him?"

His all knowing smug smile was returning, making me irritated again, but he just laughed,

"All right. All right. I will have a little fun, but he won't be harmed in any way, I promise."

I couldn't predict what his intentions were, but with this, he shouldn't be able to get against Michael. Though… I wonder if he will be an ally or an enemy in the end? I wonder about that.

"On the other hand… let's wake them up. I wonder how much they remember," I mumbled before waking them up one by one.

Caroline, who woke up first, spoke out,"Ah! Miss Aisha!"

Her eyes confused, she looked around as I woke up the others.

"What's the last thing you remember?" I asked Caroline first, and she tried recalling before speaking,"we were about to check the last energy crystal."

I looked at the other two, and they nodded as well. Hmmm… well, I guess it's better if they don't know about it.

"It's all right. That crystal might be too much for you. Let's focus on what you can do, okay?" I spoke, making the three of them nod before the training finally commenced its initial phase.
