[Call of the Fairies(Unique)]

"Oh! We have been summoned!"

"How long has it been?"

"Hehe!"

"This is funny."

"Weren\'t all the Spirit user\'s dead?"

"He has the Queen\'s mark!"

"But isn\'t the Queen gone?"

"Who is he?"

"It\'s funny!"

.

.

Voices. Dozens of voices started echoing around me as I used that ability of mine. My eyes were still closed and it was hard to see anything but soon.

"Spirits of the ground! Help thy needy one!"

"Spirits of the ground! Help thy needy one!"

"Spirits of the ground! Help thy needy one!"

"Spirits of the ground! Help thy needy one!"

"Spirits of the ground! Help thy needy one!"

.

.

.

And then my vision returned. Even though my eyes were closed, I could see everything around me. The vision kept expanding before I finally realized… that I was at least buried 500 meters below the ground.

But it didn\'t seem like a problem anymore. Even though I was buried so deep, I didn\'t feel any distress… because I could now control the very ground around me. For what should have been a suffocating burden, it now felt like a deep sea to me.

And slowly I swam up… moved up one second at a time. I didn\'t feel any lack of air to breathe. I didn\'t feel any tiredness in my body. It was as easy as breathing for me… and as I swam up; I reached the top within minutes before the hot burning sun graced me with its presence.

\'Wait! That\'s not the sun!\' I realized as the vision turned clearer and clearer, a dreadful view came in front of me.

Fallen buildings, broken bridges, everything turned to dust and debris. The only thing familiar was the setting sun at a distance beyond the ruins that were in front of me. There were no souls, no zombies, no humans, anywhere close to me; nothing worth calling living was in sight.

\'Just how much time has passed?\' I questioned with a blanked out expression.

[6 Months: 0 Minutes: 0 Seconds]

\'Huh? Wait! How come so much has changed in just 6 months?\' Though before I could process that another thought hit my mind and I couldn\'t help, but gulp, but question the System again,

\'How long had my body slept for?\'

[10,000 Years]

-Thud!

I fell on my butt, as I couldn\'t believe my eyes. My eyes wide open in stark disbelief just looked at that number as I questioned,\'what the f*ck is going on here?\'

Though I already knew the answer to it. The System has already told me what happened.

"The side effect of using God\'s power?" I thought as I fell on my back, as I understood more or less. But it was still scary nonetheless.

Simply speaking, because I had used both the [Temporal Deceleration] skills plus the [Advanced Time Regeneration!]I had reduced those 10,000 years of sleep… into mere 6 months.

The mere thought of what would have happened if I hadn\'t used those skills beforehand made me shudder to the bone.

Once again, coming back to the same question before,

"How come things changed so much in 6 months? Just what happened?"

Normally I would have panicked and stuff, but now is not the time for that. I must find out what is going on around me.

And I should start with the [System] itself.

\'The new title,\'

[The Slumbered One: The one who has slept for 10,000 years. He does not find any necessity for food, water or energy. He can survive without anything at all and even breathing, that which is absolutely necessary to one\'s life, he can live without it.]

\'All right, not a bad title… also, confirms that I had been sleeping for this long,\' I sighed as I was, once again, reminded of the time I just missed in one sleep.

"What happened to my dungeon?" I tried looking at it, but the dungeon options were gone as well. Seems like I need to ask Rhea about it. Maybe I should deal with it later on…

[Electricity is the key to the function of daily life(Completed)!]

\'Guess they found a way to create energy, huh?\'

And this one as well…

[Clear the South Area of the Black Water City(Completed)!]

[Kill all the Zombies! Total Zombies Remaining: 0

Reward: +20 Skill Points]

[Total Skill Points: 27]

\'I know where to spend them, I guess,\' I thought as I put 15 Skill Points to level up a certain Skill.

[Second Space (Rare) (Level 4)

Then I checked the entire System but didn\'t find any particular changes to it. So what comes next…

"Okay, with this much of things done, I should first get into a safe corner and check up on Rhea. While it\'s been 6 months in the outer world, it must have been 18 years inside the space," I thought as I began moving around the place.

Looking at the sunset, there should be another 40 minutes before it completely vanishes. Then I might need to travel around in these rubbles without any light source.

Though before I could even make a move, I heard a strange sound from a distance not too far from me.

Trying to hear it more clearly, I kept quiet and concentrated on that place, but all I could make out was some \'shiinngg\' sounds and nothing more. It felt like something was cutting through the air, maybe?

"Let\'s check it out first," I thought as I ran towards that area. Though even before I could reach the area, a System message came that told me what was going on in that place in the distance.

[Side Quest!]

[Save the Archeologist (Grade-B)!]

"Now we are talking!" a smile formed on my face as I increased my pace towards that archeologist.
