God of Time System: Harem in the Zombie Apocalypse

[Erina El Leilena's POV]

.

.

Everything was fine just a few moments ago.

"It's okay. Right now, there isn't anyone here. Just you and me. You can relax a little."

.

.

I actually calmed down a little. Maybe we can really escape… even if it is not me, maybe Michael can escape from here after clearing the Dungeon and someday… someday… he will come back strong and help me out?

.

.

.

"Does Ymir or Ritra ring a bell for you?"

.

.

Who are they? Are those other girls who are around Michael? No. No. No, he won't be talking about girls in such a serious moment… but… why would he even come back to save me when he already has Alissa back waiting for him?

I think… I should ask him just in case…

.

.

.

And then…

-BOOM!!!

Somebody broke in from the higher floors.

.

.

.

"Huh? Who is he, Erina?" he spoke as he looked at Michael. I stopped moving for a few moments. My eyes concentrated on Kira. They were frozen as they realized that it's all over. I wanted Michael to not do anything stupid.

Maybe if I beg Kira enough, he will let Michael go? Maybe if I try my best, Michael will have another chance…? I should do some-

"What are you even trying to do?" He spoke as he played with something in his hand

There was a heart in his hand… a beating heart.

My eyes turned to Michael, who was still standing there. There was a large hole in his chest….

-Thud!

Before I could do anything, Michael's body fell to the ground, lifeless as it could be. My heart skipped a beat.

All the memories from the start

["Well… I am Michael Aroa."]

They started flooding in…

["Let's go to the next floor. We need to finish this dungeon, don't we?"]

The way he was confident in everything he did…ραпdα `nᴏνɐ| сom

"M-M…M-Mich…MICHAEL!!!!!" I shouted loudly at his body, my body still afraid to move.

I wanted to run to him… help him back up… for someone whom I didn't even know for more than a day, he sure did become someone I felt close to.

How long had it been that I felt safe? How long had it been that I felt more of a Fairy than a Zombie or a Slave?

"Hmmm… did you become close to him or something? How long did it take me this time to reach you? This is a bit bothersome,"Kira spoke as he looked at me and then at the lifeless body of Michael.

"Though how did he even get here? Guess I shouldn't have killed him so fast. Should have asked a couple of questions first," Kira kept speaking to himself as he moved towards Micheal and reaching him he observed him carefully.

"Hmmm.. no signs of energy… nothing that spectacular… or more like he is as weak as he could be…" he speculated over Michael's dead body with a really curious gaze.

"Though, even if he was somehow unlucky enough to get in this dimension, how did he make it up to this Floor?" Kira asked, wondering in a rather curious manner before his eyes fell over me again.

Looking at me, he moved in front of me in an instant as he stared into my eyes.

"You have your powers back!!! Wow! How did you do it? I thought it was impossible to break that curse!! Did the Universe give you something?" He was curious and excited.

Universe. Those are familiar yet unfamiliar words that came out of Kira's mouth. There are stories behind it and it is said that sometimes, the force of nature converges towards some people and a blessing is bestowed by the Universe upon that person by a stroke of luck.

It's totally random and nobody knows when or who might receive a blessing and since Kira didn't know how I got my curse undone, it was normal that he would speculate it to be a miracle… which he would correlate with the Universe.

I was quite… I was scared… the nightmares were about to turn real again… but…

"Well. We will discuss that later. Since you have been set free from the curse, you can help me out now. Come with me, I have found something interesting on the other side," he spoke with excitement in his voice.

He then took out his sword and…

-Slash!!!!!!

-BOOOM!!!!!!!!!!

The entire structure above us broke into pieces, as nothing but debris was left behind. I saw the dark red sky above us and finally realized that we were in the Dark Dimension currently where forces of darkness usually bend together.

He looked at me before he observed Michael again and spoke.

"You do know that anyone who treads path with me will have the same outcome? Or do you want me…" he paused in between and a fear struck in my mind as I started walking towards him.

I peeked at Michael as a tear fell from the corner of my eye. It aches, my heart, but… it looks like there is nothing we can do about it. I could only look at my hand, where he put the ring.

There is a custom in Fairies where the mate puts a ring on the ring finger of his partner and promises to protect her till the end of her life. It was a sign of love. Though I don't think Michael has something like that in his world.

Even if he is dead… at least I will keep this ring with me till my last breath. It won't change anything… but at least it will remind me that there was once someone who was there to protect me.

"Hmmm… what's that ring?" Kira spoke and once again my heart stopped as I looked at him. My eyes shook as tears began falling out of them. I tried taking my hand back, trying to hide the ring from him, but…

"Give it to me,"he ordered as he gave me a dominant look. His eyes pierced mine, and I lost the control of my body as I raised my hands towards him.

The Law with which I was bound stated that

(Erina will follow all the commands of Kira and will never do anything that harms Kira. Any command given by Kira, she will comply without any ill intentions.]

I saw him moving towards me… my hand was still raised in the air, waiting for him to take the ring out.

And when he moved a couple of steps ahead…

Someone came in between us…

"You don't force such a beautiful lady now, do you?" A familiar voice came as someone who should have been dead was once again standing in front of me.

The hole in his chest was still there, yet he was standing without much problem… no… there was something different about him right now… his…

My eyes widened up as I realized that his power levels… were immeasurable now…

"How are you… even alive?" Kira, shaken a little, looked at Michael with all seriousness in his eyes. He was still holding the dead heart of Michael in his hands.

And Michael… smiled widely as he spoke,

"Is that the first thing you should say to someone whose heart you just stole?"
