I looked at his stats, and they were more than your average man. Though I also noticed that he too became a Zombified Human, breaking the threshold to F-Grade.
\'Is it because he had been fighting the Zombies? Or maybe it is because he was around Caroline and Alex most of the time?\' I pondered before I saw his attacks becoming apparently faster and faster.
[Eyes of the time keeper!]
\'When will the next 3 attacks come at me?\' I questioned and
[1 second]
[1 Second]
[1 Second]
\'Huh?\' I saw the timer of three attacks but only saw White punching me in my gut with his right hand and I barely blocked before his second hand out of nowhere reached my face.
Out of pure reflex, I bent to the left dodging his second attack by a hair length… though…
He immediately did a 360-degree turn as he used his left leg to almost kick me within the same second.
[Return!]
I used my skill to escape a few meters away from him as I saw him kicking the air at a rapid rate.
Though… once he made that kick and got back to standing normal, I saw him huffing with a slightly tired face as he looked at me with a slight bitter look as he spoke,
"Just what is that… huff huff… bullsh*t ability?... Teleportation?... Or you are just too fast for me to… cough, cough… see."
[Eyes of the Time Keeper(Foresight)]
I used the future sight ability of my skill because something told me that it wasn\'t over yet.
And I was right.
2 Seconds later, I will be attacked from behind. Exactly on my head, to be precise.
"Well. It\'s more of a.." I spoke as I counted the time when I will be hit…
-Swish!
I ducked as I dodged and stepped forward. Turned around to see Alex in the air as he tried attacking me with a fast kick. Hmmm, where is Caroline?
"... It\'s more of a secret of mine. It\'s powerful, isn\'t it?" I spoke as I wondered where Caroline was. I had my foresight ON all the time.
And soon I found where she was. She was behind the pillar at a distance away from me and when I will walk closer to her, she will attack me as fast as she could.
A second passed, and I locked my [Return!] to where I was standing. Then I moved forwards and within the future, saw something even more bizarre.
White, whom I thought he might have lost his energy in the previous exchange, was already going to attack me from my right at an insane speed.
Even Alex was attacking me from above, using whatever energy he had left. In fact, surprisingly, I found myself blocked from all the directions. If I didn\'t have the [Return] ability, I might have even lost against them.
I kept walking towards the place where Caroline was as I spoke,"you guys did good."
Caroline, finding her chance, attacked me from right and I, already knowing how she will attack, dodged her without much effort.
"However…" I continued speaking as I saw White almost reached me… I didn\'t look behind, but I believe Alex was already there trying to give out his best…
[Return!]
"However… you are still lacking. That too when I am not attacking," I spoke as I returned a few meters behind where I saved my Return point.
I looked at their defeated face with a bit of bliss on my face. Maybe there was a smirk on my face, but it irked all three of them as they glared at me before I spoke.
"If it is not me… I think you guys can defeat most of the people… and Zombies, too. Plus, you have just started growing, too. Let\'s fight every once in a while to gauge our ability, shall we?"
Looking at me, he sighed before all three of them stood up and Alex groaned a little before looking at me with a serious face as he asked,
"Brother. How much of your power were you using?"
These words… in his words, White, Caroline and the others who were watching the fight with their eyes wide open, turned even more shocked before they looked at me with a slight gulp.
"How much, huh?" I pondered a bit as I knew that I hadn\'t used a few of my abilities. I used [Temporal Declaration] only when fighting with White.
I didn\'t use the second ability of [Return!] to call back objects back to me.
I still have 5 stat points and 10 skill points that I can use
And with the new Special Skill [Copy] I could basically increase my power to at least 2 folds.
So all in all… I had used about…
"30%? I guess it\'s less than 50% but more than 25%. What do you think about it? Is it fine to go down there to the basement?" I asked as I looked at him.
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
Alex was surprised.
Caroline and White were stupefied.
The others… well, they… were pinching their cheeks to see if they were dreaming or not. Some of them even punched their side ones to see if they were dreaming.
I just sighed before looking at Alex and repeated the same thing again and this time, clearly hearing it, he spoke.
"About that… yeah. If you really are as powerful as you say… then it\'s fine, I think. Just take extra cautions… just sensing that thing sent chills down my spine."
There was still lingering fear in his eyes, and I nodded at him.
\'I guess I will need to use everything in my arsenal. Though it would be better to complete that other quest first to farm some Skill points and then go for the fight. Maybe I can get a few stat points from daily quests as well?\' I thought before turning to Alex and speaking,
"Whatever that thing is, I will deal with it the day after tomorrow. For now, I have some tasks for the rest o-"
Though Alex interrupted again,
"Brother. That thing… I felt it was growing with every second. The more we wait, the more it gets stronger. Can you please deal with it as soon as possible?" Looking at his worry filled eyes, I sighed before nodding at him,"Well… if it makes you so scared. Then I guess I will deal with it today."
\'I thought it will grow up to C-Grade and get stronger only after 3 days, but… seems like the growth is continuous then sudden,\' I thought as I spoke again,
"I will be going down. You guys can take care of things here. The Zombie killing sensation will start tomorrow."
As I walked under the stupefied gaze of everyone there. Caroline was about to stop me but White stopped Caroline first as he whispered, in a low voice, only to be heard by Caroline and Alex,
"We need to get stronger before we can help him out, or else we will end up being a burden in that fight. You probably didn\'t notice, but I did. He already knew where the attacks were going to come from.
He didn\'t have the skills to back it up, but the way he dodged most of our attacks, it\'s as if he already knew where and when we were going to attack. If someone like him is going to need to be careful when going down there…
Our existence in that fight will only be that of a thin paper waiting to be torn."
Hearing his words, both Alex and Caroline turned at White with a shocked gaze before they looked in the direction I went with their expression still full of disbelief.
Meanwhile, I hurriedly kept moving downwards and soon reached the Ground Floor. Even though I need to go to the basement, I will first complete this quest of mine before starting the real fight.
