I tried doing a few extra push-ups but after a couple of tries; I didn't see any increase in the number on the System screen, so I just gave up. Through the balcony window, I saw the sun was already up and if I was not wrong; it is already around 11 AM now.
I looked at the Side Quests to see if anything changed, and surprisingly nothing changed at all. Except for a couple of times decrease in the number of zombies between 0 to 35th floor, but that was in one digit so, I did not pay any attention to it.
Nodding a little, I moved into the bathroom, took a bath, and changed into a fresh set of clothes before I moved to the bed. While I didn't really need any sleep, I think it would be better for me to take some rest, anyway.
[Advanced Time Manipulation!]
I activated that skill and moved on the bed, immediately sleeping and soon waking up feeling refreshed more than ever. I checked the time when I went to sleep, and since then only 6 minutes have passed.
Considering I activated the skill, and I slept only for 6 minutes… I guess I slept for about… 20 hours!!!! Damn! That's a lot of sleep…
I guess I was really tired, just that my body wasn't telling me that I was.
I then pushed these thoughts at the back of my mind before moving out of the room and looking at the trio playing some sort of card game to pass the time. Though, as soon as I came out, they turned at me and smiled as Alex spoke,"want to play, brother?"
I thought about it for a few moments before nodding at them and joining them as we played for the next 15 minutes as the game came to an end.
"Well. Now that the break is over, shall we go down?" I spoke and the rest of them nodded before they picked up their own weapon each.

We heard some strange noises coming from the hallway and immediately became alert. I moved towards the gate slowly, opening the gate slightly, and then
[Eyes of the Time Keeper!]
I used that skill to look ahead 3 seconds into the future and I saw myself getting shot at by a really frightened lady at a distance. There were some men around her as well, carrying guns and other weapons with them.
Coming back to the present, I pondered a little before looking at Caroline and others as I whispered,"don't show your powers until extremely necessary."
They nodded at me with a slight gulp before I shouted,"who is there?!!" and sure enough,
"Who are you?" a response came from the other side.
"We are survivors from the floors above," I muttered before using [Eyes of the Time Keeper] once again. Luckily, this time nobody shot at me, though they were aiming their guns at me.
Observing that, I moved outside and stood in front of them with the knife in my hand. The other party looked at me carefully as one of the men spoke.
"Is there anyone else with you?"
At this I nodded before moving a few steps towards them but they started shouting,"stop right there!!!" as all of them became more scared and terrified.
'How long before one of them shoots me?' I questioned in my mind, but no timer came, so I guessed they wouldn't be shooting me.
"W-Why? What happened?" I asked in a slightly confused manner and one of the younger men, who seemed braver than the others, spoke out,"sorry mate, it's just… we met some people earlier who were more monstrous than the zombies."
Understanding him, I nodded for a few seconds before speaking,"I… what should I do?" and he pondered a little before speaking,"put your hands up in the air and turn around. I will come and check up on you. If you have any other weapons, than that knife then put all of them down as well."
Hearing him, I nodded before taking out the other knives I had on me and putting all of them at the side and then standing with my hands in the air and back facing towards them.
That man moved towards me and soon enough he checked up on me completely before sighing in relief and shouting,"he is clear!"
The others also relaxed, while I spoke,"actually I have an old man, a kid, a baby and a girl with me, if you don't mind."
Hearing my words, that man's eyes first turned a bit open, but as he heard the rest of it, he calmed down before speaking,"is that so? Well, it must have been hard surviving by yourself, I guess. If you don't mind, can you show me where they are?"
He muttered, and I nodded before speaking,"in that apartment. Well, actually wait… Caroline, White, Alex, you guys can come out."
Hearing my voice the rest of the group came out. However, when the three of them came out, the other group calmed down, and the women ran up to Caroline as fast as she could and spoke,"are you okay? You look good? You aren't scared, right? Don't worry, we will help you out! Everything is going to be fine now." Caroline simply just observed that woman for a few moments before that woman turned at me and glared as she spoke,"if I hear that you have done something to this innocent girl. I will kill yo-"
Though, it didn't seem like Caroline liked how she spoke with me, as Caroline had already placed a knife on that woman's neck.
"Calm down, Caroline. Something must have happened to make her behave like that," I tried calming Caroline down and she slowly put her knife down away from the lady who looked like she had just seen heaven.
Then she took a few steps back and hid behind the man who just checked up on me. I turned to that man and said,"You guys must have had a really rough time, didn't you?" at which he looked at me a bit dumbfounded before he just sighed, smiled and nodded.
