God of Time System: Harem in the Zombie Apocalypse-Chapter 57 Making Things Clear

"Looks like… there has been a misunderstanding here."

I then took out my shotgun from my [Time Storage], making everyone shocked. Then, before they could comprehend what was happening, I spoke.

"Even though it should have been obvious, I will make this clear. We are doing whatever it takes to surviving. It's not a free trip where you get to do whatever you want. The life where you had a choice is far gone.

There are only two things which allow you to survive in this cruel world.

First, either you get strong enough that no one can step on you. Aim for the top or choose a place where you are at the top. That way, you can still keep your life in your hands and afford some freedom.

Second, you get under someone strong who can protect you and feed you. This way, the amount of work you need to do gets reduced by a considerable amount. Though you say goodbye to the freedom you have. If it's someone like me who will give you enough freedom to have some of your own time, then you might be lucky.

But if you end up under who will slave drive you, then may god bless you, my friend."

They turned quiet for a few moments as each of them looked at me as if they wanted to speak something, but they lacked words to speak.

Then one of them, who looked like about 20 years old, spoke,

"Just b-because you are strong d-doesn't mean you can rule over us. There are 14 of us and only one of you."

There was evident fear in his voice and it made me chuckle a little before I began walking towards him.

"D-Don't come close… just because you have a shotgun.. You… you… if I had a shotgun, even I can act like that!" His voice turned lower and lower as he looked at me.

The others were just standing there, but as soon as I glanced at them, they all took a couple of steps back, leaving that guy on his own.

I walked around that guy with the shotgun on my shoulders and marked a [Return] point on his left side.

Then I looked at his almost crying face as I pointed the shotgun at his head, making him fear stricken as he looked at me before closing his eyes with tears in his eyes. Though, after a few moments, he peeked at me as I swiftly rotated the gun and held it by the muzzle.

"Grab it," I commanded in a dominating tone, and he gulped as he looked at me blankly. Then, after a few moments, I asked,

"Want me to repeat myself?"

Fear stricken, he grabbed the gun. Then observed me with a horrified look as I pointed the gun's muzzle at my forehead.

The others were shocked as well. They started whispering as they alternated between me and that kid.

"Shoot. Let's say your most precious person in this world depends on this single decision and you must make a shot… I would like you to see what you will do."

"But-" he wanted to speak

"Shoot!" I shouted as he started shaking

"I.." he tried speaking

"Shoot!!" I shouted again

"But you…" he seemed like pleading

"Is this how you are going to save your loved ones??!!!!" I shouted again

"This isn't…" He almost cried

"I said f*cking shoot-"

[Return!]

-BANG!!

I saw him shooting as everyone closed their eyes while Caroline and White were almost ready to jump, but as everyone opened their eyes, they turned, shocked, as they looked at me.

I wasn't in front of him but on his left as I looked at him with a slight smile.

"Even though you took some time… I guess you really do have the guts."

I had used [Eyes of the Time Keeper] to see when he would shoot and used the exact time to use [Return!]. With this, I could not only make my dominance clear but also make the guy's will power a bit strong.

I then took my shotgun back as I patted his dumbfounded head and spoke.

"Good. You will survive much longer than the others."

I then began walking towards the exit, to the lower floors as I spoke loudly,

"I will provide you with food, shelter and power. This place is going to be my shelter and as long as I exist no one will be able to f*cking touch even a hair of yours. I won't ask you for any task that is impossible for you, so stop being a chicken and follow my words.

And if you want to overthrow me… get your shit together and come at me when you are powerful enough to do so."

Then I paused for a few moments before looking back at them as I spoke.

"As for the 14 of you. I give you 30 minutes to settle your things here. Then meet me on the first floor. If you don't come down, I will come up myself."

Then I moved down one step at a time as I looked at my own stats.
