God of Time System: Harem in the Zombie Apocalypse

Chapter 211  An Old Name

"Not an entity… a family. The Grimvalour Family," he answered with slight horror in his eyes.

"It's a strong family from a nearby planet. They have mostly converted zombified species under the rule of a General Grade Eltorian. Eltoria is the name they have given to that planet," Angela explained to me without any delay as she moved a few steps ahead, observing the path before us.

"They have been one of the people that wanted to overthrow Belial from his rule and become an official General under the King of Undead, though they could barely do a dime to him given the influence Belial has over other families," Angela just showered me with information that I didn't even knew I needed.

'Well, we will cross that bridge when that time comes,' I thought before turning to Izakiel,"For now, let's put that side. I will be asking you when the time comes." He looked at me and nodded before I observed his status again.

He was really special. Just that he didn't know his own value. Or perhaps everyone is equally special and they just lack the knowledge of the path where they could realize their true potential? Maybe. This guy had a special core that could possibly give him enough power to reform an entire planet from scratch if he wishes for. Though right now he is anything but a mere shadow of what he is capable of.

'I need to make sure he stays with me. I wonder if I can manipulate or brainwash him?'I pondered as I observed him more properly. Though, not getting any foreseeable answers, I turned my attention to Myla. She was intently staring at this side for a while now.

"Let's go," I spoke as I looked at Miya, Angela and the other two as we began walking towards Myla, George, Walter, etc. Finding us coming towards them, all of them turned here with a serious gaze. I looked at their faces before turning to Myla,

"I didn't ask it last time, but what were you guys doing here?"

"Intercepted a strange energy signal. Came to check here," she spoke with a slight sigh and I asked again,"same as last time?" at which she nodded.

"Hmmm.. was it the energy from them?" I asked as I pointed at Angela and the two, and Myla nodded again. Her face was a bit complex as she tried understanding the situation in front of her. She looked at me and spoke,"yeah. The energy signature matches the description we were provided."

Even though she said that, she was more or less lost in thought as she looked at them, especially Angela. I could see the slight horror in her eyes as well. It was as if she would collapse if she let go of her mental stability.

"So what next? Going back to the military base?" I asked with slight curiosity. I wonder what choice she will make now.

"I… I… I don't want to go," she spoke in a slightly terrified manner as she put her head down. Her behavior… there is something off about it. I looked at the faces of the other people here and… ah! A bitter expression was present on their faces as well. Even Reeve, who was sitting at a distance, wasn't really any different.

Looking at the situation, I was about to see through the status description to find out what was going on but Myla spoke faster,

"Mike… there is something that I need to tell you about."

"But S-" One of the men was about to interrupt but Reeve stopped him,"It's all right. I, too, think this is the right decision."

"So… the General in charge of the camp. Trevor is his name and… you see that his 'gift' is the ability to control the life force of people around him. He can more or less see the aura of people and have total control of what they can do or what they can't… it's not 100% but still, there is a lot going on in the military right now because of this," she spoke in bits hiding most of the information and the reason for hiding the info was quite simple.

'Forced Contract,' I took a deep sigh as I began reading through the status of Myla and the more I read, the more my blood boiled. I also looked through the status of everyone else from the military and, sure enough, everyone was the same. Even Reeve wasn't any different.

"They have made it a dictatorship, huh?" I spoke as my smile turned a bit cold. This is one of the reasons why I despise the military. With power, they regard themselves as Gods over the civilians, and I am pretty sure General Trevor won't be any different either.

"It's not just that Michael," spoke Myla as a single tear fell off her eyes, trailing her white cheek as it slowly separated itself from the chin and dropped on the ground.

"Trevor is working with… Tylor," she spoke as she gulped, looking at my face. Continuing,"I don't know the exact information but I heard a rumor from the higher ups when I was in a meeting. General Pasture joked about it but… Something made me feel like there was more to it than that," she explained her reasons as she began to describe the exact things that happened when the meeting was taking place.

"Ah!... so he is finally moving, huh?" I muttered with a slight, silent smile. My eyes turned a bit more ferocious, my heart beat rising a bit more.

"Doesn't seem like you like him that much," Miya spoke with a really curious gaze as she looked at me and I turned at with the same look as I explained,

"There was a time when I used to have a best friend. He was killed by a bunch of monster like humans, especially two brothers. One of them was killed by my best friend before he died, the other one escaped. More like he left 2 days earlier, we began massacring their group. I didn't want to get involved in this as that guy was in a completely different country protected by their laws… but if the opportunity presents itself, then it would be a shame not to catch it."

There was much more to the story than just these pieces, but we can discuss this on our journey to the military camp. Yup, it has been set in stone to visit those bastards.

"Brother, are you okay?" Alex asked as he broke the silence and my expression, which was a kind of 'not really a jolly mood' broke as I looked at him. Looking at his worry filled eyes, I calmed down a little. I then recalled that he had lost his gift, and wondered if I could do something about it.

'His Status is still showing as his gift being stolen. Is there really nothing I can do here?' I mumbled silently as I observed his face for a few seconds before my eyes shifted to his sister, Erika, and something popped up in my mind when I looked at her.

"Could it be possible?" I questioned as I moved a step closer to her, reading her status with a bit more clarity.
