God of Time System: Harem in the Zombie Apocalypse

"Now that we are done with that, I will be going to meet my mom… it has been so many millennia that I have met her,"I spoke as I observed Alissa and Caroline, and stood up from there while they too did the same.

"Want me to drop you off?" Alissa asked with a slightly sympathetic tone and I shook my head as I spoke,"I can get a cab. Mom's office in the neighboring city," and though silent, she nodded at me. As for Caroline,

"Help Alissa with anything she needs. If you find any other regressor come looking for me, help him or her getting accustomed to the basics of the place here, okay?"

Hearing my words, she nodded before I stood up and began moving outside the research lab, where a dozen people were standing. Looking at me coming out, all by myself, their curiosity grew even more than some of them, the ones that knew me from before, approached me and grabbed me by their shoulders,

"Hey Michael! When did you get that hottie under your charm?" One of them spoke out as the others hushed to listen to me and looking at their fancy faces, I decided to entertain them.

"Well. Remember when there was rain a few days ago?"

"The day when you had detention and had to overwork at the hospital?" one of them seems to know about that day…

"Yeah… go before that day when I was out shopping," I blatantly lied as their ears perked up a little and I continued,"it was that day… that I found her… for what happened… I'll let your curiosity fill your mind."

Saying that, I moved away from there hurriedly, leaving them on their own. While I could have forcefully avoided them, I need to win their favor and manipulate them to become a part of my army in the future. No point in being the enemy of people for no reason.

Running away from there, I reached the main gate where the guard came running up to me as he spoke,

"Student Michel… hah… haa… Professor Lewis asked me to urgently send you to her. If not, the consequence would be dire."

I narrowed my eyes at the guard and he spoke,"that is what she said. Not my words."

"Say that to her that Michael had an emergency,"I said as I walked outside of the campus and looked for a cab nearby. While the cost would be a little over the top for traveling from one city to another, since it was the fastest method, I decided to take it, anyway. Not like I lacked money.

It took about a couple of minutes to get the taxi and a few more minutes to convince him to travel to another city. In the end, he agreed at a 10% higher price than usual and also that I will also return from the city using his cab only. Which was fine by me.

Traveling through the city, I observed the Skyscrapers at the other side of the city. One of those buildings was the Libra building where I had stayed before. The city looked brilliantly beautiful compared to the apocalyptic city that was about to come in the future.

Since it was morning, the sunshine brushed against my face while I looked outside the window. The Driver then started talking a little as he asked me my purpose for visiting another city using a cab, while I could have used the bus.

Since it wasn't much of a secret, I told him about the reason for me to visit the next city. It was because I hadn't met my mother for quite some time. Worried, he asked if something happened to my mother, to which I laughed, saying, No, it was just me being overdramatic after not meeting her for a long time.

Giving me a warm smile, he then began telling me about his own story about his children and small talk began about his life and purposes. I made sure the talk didn't come up to me, so I kept on asking questions to him, which, for some reason, he happily answered.

It took 5 hours before we finally reached the city, near one of the highest buildings, which was owned by my mother. Getting out of the cab, I looked at the driver, as I gave him the share of the money while also providing some advance, as I asked him to park in the parking area and meet me at this location in about 3-4 hours.

I also provided him with my number so that he can contact me in case something goes wrong. Overall, he was satisfied with the treatment and nodded before leaving.

I looked at my casual dress up and sighed,'I should have dressed better. Well, doesn't matter now,' I thought as I entered the building.

In the beginning there was no problem reaching the ground floor, but since it was actually the first time I was visiting the building, I actually needed to ask the receptionist about the floor mom was on.

"May I ask who you are?" she asked me with her eyes narrowed at me while her eyes analyzed me with a careful look. Through her eyes changed to contempt once she finalized her thoughts.

"I am-" before I could even tell her anything,

"No. It's fine. Please come a week later. Right now, mam is busy," she told me as she ignored me and focused on another man who was behind me,"excuse me sir, how may I help you?"

I just stood there for a few moments as I wondered if I should try once more, or try finding mom on my own?

After a certain thought, I nodded at myself as I looked at the other receptionist and asked her that same thing. It was better to be polite than to be ruthless. They were just doing their work and might have their own sets of problems.

"I apologize, but you cannot know such information," the other receptionist spoke with a sigh, lacking any emotion of apology in them. I just looked at her for a while before I spoke,"At the very least, can you provide her with my name? Even her secretary would do. She knows me as well." Though they shook their head before I heard a voice from behind,

"Excuse me Sir. We may need to ask you to leave from here." They were the guards wearing the black and white suit, as they tried to intimidate me. Looking at their power level using the [Space Time Map], I could see that their power level was a bit higher than me… but their footwork was pathetic.

Compared to the skills that Ais taught me while teaching me the Spear skills, this was like looking at a toddler.

'Nothing good will come out of fighting right now,' I thought as I wondered if I should call Erza, Mom's secretary and settle things… though I want to surprise mom too…

"Okay, I will-" before I could even get ready to move out, they started pushing me from behind…

Now… isn't that rude?

"Who do you think you are trying to show force to?" I asked as I glared at them and, being a little intimidated by me, they took a step back, making everyone look at me. Though immediately after, they jumped at me with full force… Only to get beaten up badly.

Piling them up, one over the other, I just sat on their bodies as I called the phone,"hey, Erza. It's me. I am on the ground floor. Can you ask th- oh! You are coming yourself? Thanks. I'll wait."
