God of Time System: Harem in the Zombie Apocalypse

As I moved towards Caroline, White stood up and spoke,"let me take the kid. You help the girl."

I looked at Caroline before I nodded and passed on Alex to White. Though before I could move towards Caroline.

"YOU! IT ALL HAPPENED BECAUSE OF YOU!!! IF ONLY YOU HAVEN'T ASKED US TO FOLLOW US YOUR STUPID PLAN BLAKE AND ADAM WOULD HAVE BEEN STILL ALIVE!!!" George shouted as tears kept falling down his face.

I saw he had most of his rationality here… perhaps they were more closer than I thought they were?

George came running towards me and punched me in the face, which I gladly took…

[4995/5000]

I fell to the ground and he jumped at me, sitting on my chest as he punched me…

He punched me again… and again… and again..

"If only…"

He was trying to speak between his punches and tears kept running down his face before they fell on my face.

"If we could have just stayed up…"

The tears were warm… his punches were getting less harsh than before 𝑓𝔯𝑒e𝘸e𝘣𝓷𝘰ѵe𝚕.c૦𝙢

"Someone would have come up…"

His despair was taking over… all his emotions were coming out.

"Everybody is f*cking stupid…"

Perhaps he was holding it from the start.

"They promise to survive… but they die… they f*cking leave.."

How many deaths had he seen in this apocalypse?

"Mom… dad… my sisters… and now my best friends… "

Until now he was acting brave for his friends' sake but now that they were gone

"Michael… I don't want to die… but I don't want to live either…"

I saw his eyes begging me to save him…

"This is too cruel… Why is this happening to us?"

I wonder about that too…

"Tell me Michael… what should we have done?"

He asked me with a broken smile as I looked at him… perhaps we could have saved them? Perhaps it was inevitable…

I raised my hand and touched his cheeks, wiped his tears. He looked at me with a tired yet broken expression and I spoke with a serious expression,

"Perhaps it would be really hard, but… want to live for me?"

He looked at me with a confused expression and I smiled as I answered,

"I am trying to save everyone I can. I want to save my family as they're my priority but also I am trying to save everyone I can. There are more people like you who have lost their everything, there are many who haven't. Some are like me, who are trying to get back to their family. Help me save my family and then help me save others who are suffering through the same things as us."

I lied… but I had no choice but do it or else he would have killed himself.

I am selfish… I only see if I can use others or not… I prioritize my family and myself over others. I have seen enough of this world… What happens when you help someone… what you get in return? Just plain betrayal

Only to those who have really helped me, I will return the favour.

Or those whom I can use… I will make them mine as well.

"That's a stupid reason," spoke George as he looked at me with a sad smile, but he was gaining back his composure, slowly and slowly.

He stood up from my chest and then turned around as he spoke,"I don't know if you are telling a lie or not but, I think I will stick with you until I can. Even though I don't want to live… perhaps I will keep trying… telling myself that stupid reason that you just gave me."

"You did good," I heard White speaking to me and I turned to him.

"I will take on from here. I can make sure he won't die but that is only up to the point you are alive… after that no one can save him from dying," White spoke before he took Alex on his back and started moving up towards George who was slowly walking alone.

"Thanks… I guess," I spoke with a low voice before I turned at Caroline and then got her up on my back before I looked at the door, which was still being banged by the zombies and I sighed before moving behind George.

.....

Soon we reached up the floor and I saw George opening the apartment doors one by one.

Soon everyone got out of hiding from their respective apartments as they looked around for any zombies. First, they freaked out, looking at the dead zombies on the floor, but then a smile bloomed on their faces.

Though it was only momentarily before George told them about what happened on the 34th floor.

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN BLAKE AND ADAM DIED?!!!" one of the men shouted at George as he looked at him. George's eyes were still dead, and all he spoke was,

"The zombies got them before we could do anything."

Though others were freaked out by that and some were holding him by the collar, he still didn't speak any other words.

Watching that they didn't get any answer from him, they moved towards us or more specifically, me…

"YOU! It has all happened because of you!! If only you haven't brainwashed them into doing whatever you shit you pulled, all of us could have survived… Blake and Adam would have still been alive… just what do you want from us? Why are you so hell bent on killing us?" one of them shouted, with tears falling from her eyes.

The others looked at me for answers and I spoke out another half truth,

"The door was breaking… I saw that the barricade wouldn't have held it for another day or so. I didn't have any choice… I tried my best to save everyone… thought about the best plan, but… this is my limit." "If the best you can do is get two of us killed, then Mr. Michael, you are very limited!!" They spoke with fury filled in their eyes and I was confused about what to do next.

Before I could speak anything else, White took over,"If the door would have broken, saving all of you would have been impossible. Almost half of you would have been dead, and that is one of the good outcomes.

We were lucky with the plan and got almost over 200 zombies by following that plan. If any of you have a plan that could effectively kill more than 200 zombies, then please share it."
