YM778.TV Chapter 51 [Eyes Of The Time Keeper]
I then told them a bit about medical knowledge they can apply to save them from a grave situation. Things like CPR, or what to do when you get burned, or things you can do when you get scratched by a sharp object.
One had to take care of oneself, and it may never be too late to learn these things. As I was teaching the elderly couples, the others also listened to me with a keen interest. Their gazes, which were filled with spite before, were now a bit more relaxed as they paid attention to me.
"Ummm excuse me Devil… Can I ask you a question?" a young girl spoke as she looked at me, a bit confused, while the guy beside her glared at her a bit. She ignored him.
"Sure," I spoke and everyone turned at her as she asked confidently,
"What can we do if we… Let\'s say get ourselves bitten by snakes or something? Maybe insects?"
It was an odd question, but still I explained to her how different insects or snakes have different venoms or acids inside them. I also explained that it wasn\'t that common to find a venomous snake, with only a special variety being poisonous.
Though, I made sure to explain which were poisonous and which were not.
Soon others also began asking more and more questions and I answered them all as clearly as possible, making sure at least something goes inside their head.
After a session of an hour or 2, the sun rose quite high in the sky. However, since it was the time of October, the atmosphere was quite cool, so no one had any problem sitting at the top. Though we were done too. I then saw George coming closer to me with White beside him.
"We have a bit of a problem," he said with a serious face, and I kind of knew what it was.
"Food?" I asked, and he nodded.
"How many days more?" I inquired, and he spoke,"if we cut it to a minimum, then about 3." I closed my eyes for a few moments before asking,
"Is there any way we can create food? I am asking about the long term. For the short term, I believe going down is the only way."
"Well… we can create a farm here but… we would need proper soil, seeds, manure… and water too, along with proper aeration," White spoke as he looked at me and I asked,
"Will soil from the pot be fine?"
He looked at me and nodded before we both recalled that…. I kind of threw most of the pot above the 40th floor down the balcony. I sighed before asking,
"Well… I guess we will need some seeds too… is there anyone in the building who used to have a garden or something? Even a mini garden on their balcony should be fine."
"I will ask people here," he spoke, and I nodded before pondering a little as I stopped him before speaking.
"Even if you don\'t find anyone like that, ask people to collect all the pots they can find and bring them up to the terrace. We are going to build our own garden. Also, try searching for seeds… whatever the kind. If we have a gardener among our survivors, it would be even better."
I closed my eyes before continuing,"Call Alex and Caroline. White, I need a bit of your help as well."
George nodded before leaving. Soon Alex and Caroline came, and I asked all three of them to come down with me to the gym. Reaching the gym, I looked at White and spoke,"Teach them how to fight."
White looked at me as he asked,"what are you talking about?"
"I saw how you fought against the Zombies. I need you to teach both of them how to fight properly, not only against zombies but also Humans. It would make me feel safe that they know how to defend themselves and you are the only one I know who can do that." I spoke in one breath and he looked at me and sighed.
"Hmmm… well, answer me this then. Why exactly should I do this?" he asked, making Caroline and Alex look at him and I pondered a little before directly asking,
"What do you want?"
"I… I need a promise. An insurance that will help me out in the future… I need you to go with me somewhere," he spoke with a serious voice and I looked at him and then nodded,"as long as it doesn\'t involve my family and friends, I think I am fine. As for the insurance… how about we visit your place after we go out of here?"
He looked at me and nodded with a bit of a smile and then turned to Caroline and Alex,"well… It\'s not like I haven\'t taught monsters before… but I guess this would be the first time I would be someone like… you."
After that, I bid farewell to them and then began walking down and started running through the corridor until I reached Floor 3rd.
[Daily Quest: Run 100 Miles:(7/100)]
Looking at the amount done, I began running to and fro on the third floor, from one end to another. Time passed slowly from that point onwards as I kept hearing the bang of the Zombies against the locked door.
After maybe an hour or two,

"What does it mean by \'Multiple Timelines at once?\' " I questioned as I looked at the 4th effect of the skill.
