[The user can react to anything and their surroundings, even if it is too early or too late to react to them, possibly even causing later events to happen sooner or undo some past actions and events. For example, catching a ball even if it is too early, or dodging a bullet even if they have already been hit.

"..."

For a second, I just kept looking at that skill with my eyes blanked out. Okay… this is a bit too much… this is too strong…

'Doesn't that mean… I am more or less invincible now?' I thought as I pondered about the applications of this skill. This was a bit over the top, really…

All my attacks will hit the target while all the attacks of my targets will miss? Welp, as long as my mental fortitude holds out.

"What happened?" Watching me stop dead in my tracks in the middle of the battleground where all the zombies were still swarming towards us, Irene asked as she easily killed another couple of zombies. She took the Cores with her swiftly before moving to another zombie.

"Nothing. I was just looking at something… let's go," I spoke as I too started killing the zombies. With the zombies much stronger than me, my stats were increased 10 times more than they usually are.

Though even still, I saw that I was slower than Irene, who was just following me. I sighed before moving towards the place where the zombies' concentration was more.

-Whoosh!

-Slash!

-Shinggggggg!!!!

I heard a strange sound and since I was using the [Eyes of the TimeKeeper(foresight)] I saw myself almost torn apart to shreds before Irene stopped that strange zombie in front of me with her chainsaw colliding against its Scythe.

'Well, let's check out the new Skill, shall we?' I thought as I waited for the perfect time and…

[Time Rejection!]

And I saw myself cut apart into pieces, simultaneously with Irene hurrying in front of me with a scared yet enraged face as she blocks the attack of that Scythe Zombie and then turns back at me with worry.

Though what she saw made her confused as she narrowed her eyes at me. Even the zombie who slashed me looked at me with a narrowed look.

It then did something… I think it used its skill and about a dozen chains started emerging from the ground and pierced me from all around before the chains vanished.

[Time Rejection!]

And yet again, I was standing there as if nothing really happened. In tip-top condition, I was there standing with a smile on my face as I looked at that Reaper Zombie.

Looking around, I saw a steel rod fallen at a distance and began slowly walking towards that steel rod.

Meanwhile, Irene fought with the zombie on equal terms. The fight was really brutal, as that zombie could manipulate the ground to produce chains from anywhere and Irene had to be really careful where she was stepping, or, more like, she was continuously on the run as she attacked and dodged at the same time.

-Slash!

-Zinggggg!

I could hear the sound of slashes and chainsaw roaring behind me at a rapid pace, but not really caring much about it I picked up the steel rod.

It's not like the zombie never attacked me. In fact, it attacked me as much as it could and, obviously; it succeeded many times… yet…

[Time Rejection!]

I smiled as I turned at that Scythe Zombie

[Inspect!]

[Grim Reaper Zombie(Grade-A)]

[The final evolved state of the normal zombie who had eaten the flesh of the NighCrawlers and accepted darkness partially and managed to subdue it under their power. These zombies can manipulate the power of darkness to call upon the chains of hell to come to their aid. Their scythe is made up of their own flesh and is more like an extended part of their body.

Gift:

Absolute Attack: Once targeted, the user will never miss any shots. Though the user needs to kill the target before moving to another target.

Reward for killing the zombie: +250,000 Exp]

'Ho! So it has already targeted me? Is that why it was never missing… well, the difference in power level was so much that I didn't even notice,' I thought as I looked at it before slowly raising my steel rod.

Maybe I was too slow for them so they didn't pay attention to me and honestly, I was kinda fine with that. This way I could check two things at once.

One was the fact that Rhea told me about my slash. She said that even my normal slashes should be more refined now, as long as I maintain my stance a little.

So I took a proper stance and then prepared for a slash… and after a few seconds..

-Slash!

I slashed the air in front of me before…

[Time Rejection!]

-KYAAAAAAAAA!!!!!

A deafening cry came out of that Grim Reaper's mouth as it withered in pain, its body half cut from above. Irene, who was fighting with that zombie, stopped in fear before her eyes landed on me.

The smile on my face must have been really sinister, otherwise she wouldn't have looked at me like that.

Once again, I raised my hand. And sensing danger, that guy ran towards me and attacked me with all its might… I was pierced in so many places, cut from almost all the places yet…

Irene was about to move again, but looking at what was going on, even she was horrified. And then I moved to make that slash without any effort as

-Slash!

It dodged easily…

With a smile on my face, I took out the Core of the zombie's dead body as I looked at Irene and said,"Let's go."
