God of Time System: Harem in the Zombie Apocalypse

[Enkonomiya\'s POV]

…

…

People of Darkness.

They were there when the War of the Nexus was at its peak. From what my memory serves, they were being handpicked by that General himself. What was his name again… yeah, General Belial.

In a way, you can even say that General Belial created them by himself. They feasted on the fear of other people and also possessed an extra amount of Cessation Energy than they should carry. Though the most troublesome thing about their power was the ability to control the darkness itself.

Darkness was a part of them, like an extension, which they can control at their will. Normally they should be able to control only an extent of darkness, however, as their power grows, so does their control over darkness.

As far as I remember, there were 12 people under the command of Belial, the 12 Ingrates, as he called them.

\'I wonder which Ingrate is hiding here, currently,\' I thought as I knew the tide of the battle might shift drastically if we end up matching against the wrong one.

Each Ingrate held a specific control over darkness, and held the power far beyond one could imagine. Though if there was one thing common in between their absurdity, then that was that each and every one of them was at least an SSSS-Grade.

If it is among the lower 6 of the Ingrates, it should be fine, but if it is the upper Ingrates…

\'That could be a bit bothersome,\' I thought as I shifted a little left and saw the man with the long sword, turning one step to the left as well.

Understanding his intentions, I started walking away from there to the left, making him follow me with a lusty smile. I looked at George and Walter, and understanding my intentions, they nodded before I started running a bit faster. Not too fast to outrun him, but still fast enough to not let him catch me as well.

"Where are you running, missy?" That guy spoke as he licked his sword and kept following me without a glint of doubt in his mind.

After running a bit far away from the others, I finally stopped as I decided that this much distance was good enough. Here I can let my powers let loose for a little while, also letting the other kids enjoy their own battle as well.

"What happened, Missy? Ran out of stamina to run? Chk chk, such a poor girl," he spoke as he looked at me as he moved one step at a time as he continued,

"But you shouldn\'t have decided to betray your people and run on your own. You are certainly fast, but that is only going to give you a few more minutes of safety. Nothing more."

I looked at him with a \'serious\' expression as I looked at him and his smile widened into a grin as he spoke again,"actually, it would have been better if you had continued running. I love when my prey tries to escape me."

\'10%... no, I should go at 5%. I just hope that I don\'t end up killing him fast, ending all the fun at once,\' I thought as I jumped at him while also applying some hidden defenses on me, just in case he had some surprises.

"Whoa there!" he spoke with a bit of surprised face as he jumped back, dodging my aura sword that I created out of magic. It was one of the basic magic techniques that I learned when I was 5.

And then I moved for another slash at the same speed and, noticing my attack, he used his sword and

-Clank!

Managed to block my attack.

"Nice sword you got there,"I spoke as I looked at his slightly serious face. His eyes were concentrated on my sword as he answered,"I could speak the same for yours."

He then pushed me back a little before jumping again. He has some good sword skills, I would give him that.

-Clank!

-Clank!

-Clank!

Sounds of our sword crossing each other many times echoed as we kept fighting. I wasn\'t using my full power as I observed his movements, his steps, his breathing pattern, even his ways of looking.

"You really got some moves there, missy. Didn\'t think I would find someone so skilled on this barren planet like this. How about I give you an offer?" He finally spoke after a minute of silence, and I looked at him with a slightly amused face.

"What offer?" I asked, trying to hide my disgusted smile.

"Be my woman," he spoke as he slowed his steps, created a bit of distance and then, keeping his sword on his shoulder, he smiled with a slight evil grin.

"Missy. You probably don\'t know, but this planet is just a measly weasly planet, which is soon going to be used as a resource three months later. In other words, this world is doomed to die soon. Consider yourself lucky that you have the benevolent me offering to take you in. With me, you can escape this accursed fate of this planet," he spoke as his eyes glowed while I… just chuckled.

"Everything would have been fine. But there is just a little bit of a problem… two problems actually," I spoke as I decided to humor him a little.

"O! And what would they be?" he asked curiously, stopping his steps and looking at me.

I raised two of my fingers as I looked at him,

"One is that… I despise the People of Darkness more than anything." His eyes turned really serious as he looked at me. Question filled his mind as he observed my face with much more caution as he asked,"how do you know that name? I don\'t think we told anyone about that name on this planet."

The People of Darkness were one of the people responsible for the destruction of my planet. Of course I would despise them. Though they had an entire army with them back then. And I had killed at least half of that army by myself…

"Second reason is that… I would rather kill myself 1000 times over than fall so low as to sleep with a Slythreen," I spoke with a mocking smile as I looked at him.

Slythreen were a race with scales on their body. Their powers weren\'t really special, but their defense was really something else. Also, their agility was good too. One of the reasons most of the Slythreen\'s were assassins of the night.

With the addition of the power of darkness, most Slythreen were unstoppable even back then. Though too bad, his opponent is me… really a shame…

"You are not a native of this planet. Who are you?" he asked as he finally got serious. His skin changed into scales and his eyes turned more snake like. He looked at me with complete seriousness as he positioned himself properly and asked again,

"I will ask one last time. Who. Are. You?"

"For a mere Slythreen who doesn\'t even have a complete Reptilian Core… you got some guts to speak in that tone." I looked at him with a disgusted look, as if I were looking down on some worm.

And perhaps he didn\'t like that, so his expression turned furious as he shouted,"You are… FUCKING DEAD NOW!!!"
