"Hey so, you know archery?" I asked out of nowhere as I saw her status and she smiled a bit as she answered,"yeah. You knew?"

"A little," I lied through my teeth as I looked at her with a smile. She then began explaining about her archery skills and how she got into that sport. Meanwhile, I checked for her pulse and other physical signs and symptoms to see if she was doing all right, which she was… much better than what she should do.

I saw her increased stats, and it was hard for me to keep my shock hidden but I still kept it in without letting it escape. I saw that her grade could be upgraded but that would require more zombification, which in turn will require more cores.

\'Though even this much is enough for her to become stronger than me and if she could do it, others would naturally become stronger as well. Looks like I need to get my stats up as well,\' I thought inwardly before asking her if she feels any different.

She shakes her head and tells me that she doesn\'t feel any different on which I ask her,"can you try punching this wall?"

She, a bit confused, nodded at me before putting all her strength into her fist and

-BOOOM!!!

She created a hole in the wall!!!

Both me and her just kept looking at that hole with a dumbfounded expression before I spoke,"well, looks like there is some improvement in your physical aspect. I wonder about your other capabilities."

I thought as I looked at her with 17 points in dexterity. If 15 is the limit of a human, then she has already crossed being a human being in agility, perception, etc. I guess it must be her perception that got enhanced.

"I guess so," she speaks as she looks at her fists, with eyes still filled with disbelief. I then turn towards the doorway and say,"Take a golf club and come with me. I guess it is about time we save those people on the top."

She looked at me and nodded before asking,"Do you have a plan?"

"Yeah, I suppose I have something that should work. Though, that is going to need our combined efforts," I pondered as I spoke out loud and she kept her eyes fixated on me. Then I moved towards the door but before I could do so I asked her once again,"hey, if you feel like losing control or anything like that, you can just tell me. Even if we are in the middle of the fight, I will help you out, okay? Just don\'t end up keeping it to yourself because I am in a tough situation or something mmmhm?!"

She was staring at me for a few moments and then she suddenly jumped at me and kissed me hard. I lost focus for a few seconds before I saw her stepping back and saying,"you don\'t need to worry about me and yeah I will make sure to tell you if anything comes up."

I couldn\'t hear properly because I was still dazed by what had just happened. I saw her then moving outside as she passed beside me, but before she could do so, I grabbed her hand and pulled her closer to me and kissed her back.

Her eyes opened up a little before I felt her hands around me with one hand on my back and another at the back of my head. My adrenaline surged and my tongue found its way, intertwining with hers.

Both of us kept kissing deeply for the next few minutes, and it didn\'t look like we were going to stop anytime soon. However,

-Rwar!!

I saw a zombie coming closer to us from the doorway, which made my eyes open up wide. There wasn\'t a single zombie in the previous 5 floors below us, so that means it\'s not just it, but more are coming from up.

\'The wall breaking sound must have attracted them… probably,\' I thought as I pulled Caroline behind me and moved towards the zombie as I swiftly stabbed it.

[E-Grade Zombie killed!]

[+50 Exp!]

I then moved out of the room immediately and found seven more zombies within the living room.

[+25 Exp!] x 7

Caroline also moved out of the master bedroom with a scary look on her face. She looked really pissed right now, and it made me chuckle a little before I concentrated on those zombies still coming from the entrance, however…

-BOOOM!!!

-BOOM!!

-BOOOM!!

The golf club in Caroline\'s hand broke on the third hit as the skull of another zombie cracked open and I just looked at it with my eyes wide open.

\'She is too fast!\' I almost couldn\'t see her moving there and I could only see some after images of how she killed those zombies at the entrance before she moved out. Following her, I reached out and saw that she had started killing most of the zombies in the same manner as before.

\'My Exp!\' My eyes turned solemn before I took a deep breath and stood there for a few seconds as

[Active Time Regeneration!]

For the next 7 seconds, I stood there regenerating my Time Points before I looked at the front, only to find Caroline slowing down. She wasn\'t as strong as a few moments ago, and neither was she as fast.

\'Are her powers decreasing?\' I questioned with a serious mind before dashing towards her and reaching her. I found her struggling with about 7 zombies in front of her. Observing the hallway, there were about 20 zombies in total here, which was actually good news.

[Temporal Declaration!]

I spoke before killing the ones near Caroline and then moving in front of her.

\'How long before the zombie in the front reaches me?\'

[4 seconds]

I immediately slowed my breath, concentrated on nothing but the timer and minimized my movements.

[Active Time Regeneration!]

I waited for the next 3 seconds

3 seconds later

[45/105 Time Points]

I looked at the zombie almost an inch away from me

[Temporal Deceleration!]

-Slash x 4

And once again…

\'How long before the zombie in the front reaches me?\'

[3 seconds]

[Active Time Regeneration!]

2 seconds later

[Temporal Deceleration!]

-Slash x 2
