God of Time System: Harem in the Zombie Apocalypse

[ANGELA\' POV]

.

.

I looked around as I teleported Irene and myself on the second floor, directly from outside the building. Michael did say that he found some energy signatures inside that were kind of uncertain to handle, so he asked us to be here and deal with things on the second floor.

"Still… I never thought I would run into someone like you," I smiled as I looked at that girl in front of me. It was a girl with fluffy purple hair, with her eyes covered by a brown blindfold. Her dark complexion reminded me of a certain race that was lost in time…

"Walter,"Irene spoke out with a surprised expression as she looked at that other kid standing beside that blindfolded girl. Looking at that guy… I think it was one of the kids that was with Michael, wasn\'t he? 

"Hey. Irene. Fancy seeing you here… came here to enjoy the pub? Not a fancy timing, suppose?" he spoke as he looked at Irene before turning at me with a slight dejection.

"I take you as Angela… and Sir Michael is down there too?" He added with a complex expression before speaking,"Invidia… be careful of that girl in black hair.. She is… strong."

He then created some fireballs in the air as he looked at Irene and spoke,"So Irene. How is life going?" before throwing the fireballs at her.

Skillfully dodging the fireballs, Irene answered,"Not really that great. I just found out that I belong to a race that is more of a slave race of sorts… too complicated to explain." 

She then picked one of the legs of the broken chair and began running towards Walter, who simply created more fireballs as he answered,"Sounds rough."

Meanwhile that girl, Invidia, was it? She ran towards me as she took out two small kitchen knives and began attacking me skilfully. 

"Now that is a peculiar choice of weapon," I chuckled as I saw her reaching closer to me, stabbing me in the heart with those two weapons, while I simply stood there with a smile on my face.

Noticing that something was wrong, she immediately jumped back a few steps, leaving those stabbed knives still in my stomach as I absorbed them. Though I didn\'t destroy them immediately, but rather transferred them to my hands as I spoke,

"Hmmm, these are custom made. More like… a gift, I presume? From my family?" 

She looked at me with her expression turning complex. Her hands were slightly itching as I saw her observing me carefully from top to bottom.

Finding it amusing, I threw back those knives at her before speaking,"you seem like you would cry without them. Here. Have fun."

I teased her a little, making her expression a bit more twisted than before. She then muttered something incomprehensible as her knives started turning cold and cold, before she ran towards me with all her might.

"Take a break, will you?" I spoke as I used a bit of my powers to stop her exactly where she was. Her steps, which were faster than sound, were now frozen in front of me, while she looked at me with slight surprise… slight horror. She tried her best to break free, but I chuckled as I saw the energy of those knives slowly dying with the passage of time.

Walking behind her, I clicked my finger as I let her free. She looked at me with fear as she stopped her in tracks and turned around and her ice knives started breathing fire… but extinguished before they could reach me.

"You are an Alicathan, right? Now I remember. You were one of the 12 of the Belial\'s followers… makes me wonder what are you doing here?" I spoke as she looked at her, still silent as ever. Now that I think about it, she hasn\'t spoken even a single word… was she mute or something?

"Miss Angela… Can I ask you not to tease her so much?" Walter spoke as he dodged Irene\'s attacks skillfully while adding his own spells to counterattack hers. His eyes were quite focused on both of us.  I think you should take a look at

\'He is watching out for me… \' I saw those eyes of worry… Belial is here… Though… I should have been able to sense him if he was here…

"Why kid? Are you in love with her or something?" I teased him a little before looking at Invidia as I added,"So… Alicathan… Do you have any more magic tricks to show, or are you out of options now?"

I looked at her for a couple of seconds as I sat on one of the sofas while I observed that girl giving me a silent glare. She then sighed deeply before she spoke,"I generally don\'t speak…" And then the air got heavy… extremely heavy… Makes me smile a little… it was one of the abilities of the Oracle… Everything she says is absolute… Though it costs her life.

"But it\'s-" Though before she could utter even a single word, I ran closer to her and covered her mouth as I added,"No, love. I am immune to any or all fate bending abilities… and my curse is way stronger than anything you can do. Save your precious life for something better."

Rather than listening to me, her eyes turned to Irene and chuckled. I smiled as I added,"And if you take her life… you might end up making someone angry that might eradicate your entire planet for revenge. Why not try using your Oracle Eyes for that?"

Listening to my words, her expression turned pretty confused as she looked at me before she turned to Irene. For a couple of seconds, she didn\'t do anything before she turned to me, as if asking me to move back and let her check.

Smiling, I did that while also taking care that she didn\'t do anything stupid. Invidia then took out her blindfolded eyes, revealing pure sapphire-like blue eyes that felt like they contained the entire universe in them, with which she turned to Irene… and her eyes… she widened beyond what I had hoped for.

\'Hmmm… what did see to make her expression turn like that?\' I thought as I observed her. She was having a hard time understanding whatever she was looking at before she turned to me for confirmation… though as soon as those blue eyes landed on me… 

She started vomiting out a lot right in front of us. I observed her breaking in front of us before Walter appeared behind her and said,"Stop bullying a kid, will you?" as he chanted something, making her body heal at a faster rate. "She is strong enough to erase this entire planet by herself… calling her kid will hurt ego. You clearly don\'t get girls, do you?" I spoke as I looked at Walter, who just shook his head and said,"Ouch! Stop rubbing salts on my wound. Anyway, I think we should leave now… just tell Sir Michael that try finding the ruler of this current world. If he can do that, he will be able to find what he needs."

Then I saw him slowly vanishing from there without leaving any trace. I could have stopped him easily, but I then saw Irene unconscious… with a curse that no normal person can remove… sigh… Kid is smart.

I then focused a bit of my energy to remove the curse while the other to stop them from running away… though for some reason… it didn\'t work… It was as if I never used my powers to stop them. 

"The reality changed… Belial…" I was sure it was his doing. Well, let\'s focus on Irene for now. Using the rest of my energy, I then removed the curse from Irene, who then woke up hurriedly and punched at me. 

"Easy there, darling. You might hit this weak old me,"I smirked as I stopped her punch, making her come out of her shock and finally look around. 

"Did I… lose again?" She asked as she looked at me and I nodded as I spoke,"you did fair for a human with no powers whatsoever."

\'Though your friend here never intended to harm you or kill you… or else you would have been dead long before the fight began,\' I assessed the situation as I looked at Irene, who seemed to understand what I was just thinking right now.

"But it seems like… the situation is a bit more complicated than we thought,"She spoke as she looked at me before standing up again. I nodded at her as I also understood the gravity of the situation. Looking around, the rest of the men were more or less dead now. Nothing worth collecting information here. 

"Shall we see how Michael is faring?" I asked as I looked at Irene and she nodded before slowly getting back up,"thank you," she added before beginning slowly walking towards the railing. I followed beside her as I reached there and looked down at the ground floor.

The current scene was a kind of amusing, to say the least. There was a handsome kid in golden, unconscious in the corner, and an archdemon who was shaking to his boots as he observed Michael as if he were looking at his nightmare.

Meanwhile, Michael had a steel rod in his hand with an evil grin on his face as he spoke,"Apologies for the disturbance. As you can see, I was a little occupied. Now then, let\'s begin our \'conversation\', shall we?"

And the devil took a step back while still shaking down to his boots.
