God of Time System: Harem in the Zombie Apocalypse

Chapter 216 Erased Memories?

"This is so tasshty!!! Mmm!!!!" spoke one of the military people as she gulped down the entire bite of her favorite hometown food.

"Where did you get… gulp… gulp… where… this… gulp… where did you get this!!!" Even Miya wasn't an exception to this as she brought something out of her own world. This carpet is really something. It doesn't matter which planet you belong to. As long as you have the energy, you can eat whatever you can, as much as you can.

Not just them, but everyone was gulping down, eating whatever they could, as if they were hungry for ages. Whether it was the military, or it was George, Walter and the others, even Alex and Erika were eating to the best of their ability.

Angela and the group, whom I thought would be hesitating, were actually eating much more than the others.

[Total Stock Cronas Left: 23,400]

This was the amount of Cronas which was left in the Carpet to still use as energy after I poured 50,000 in it. I was just looking forward to it being finished within seconds, but the cost really wasn't as much as I was expecting it to be.

The maximum consumption was by Angela's food, followed by Miya's. As for the others, they didn't even account for 20% of the food. Foods from this planet didn't even account for even 1% of the Cronas spent.

'Seems like we can have a satisfying meal without worrying about anything,' I smiled, as I was a little worried that we might not be able to eat our fill properly.

Not wasting my time, I also ordered various kinds of dishes to satisfy my stomach. Since I was curious, I even tried the food from Angela's plate as well as Miya's, too. Even taking some from the Medusae, too. She glared at me before noticing it was, and in a flash, that glare changed into a horrified smile, making me chuckle a little as I continued eating.

And thus for the next hour or two, we ate as much as we could, filling our stomachs, before I stood up first and looked at Rhea looking at us from a distance. I could see her smile, with a bit of a chuckle, as she observed me. I too smiled at her, before moving towards her as I spoke.

"Don't wanna join us?"

"Would love to, but I don't think the food that I want, you can afford it," she spoke as she looked at me. I kinda wanted to say otherwise, but based on how much I have known her, I kinda knew that she wasn't lying.

"Maybe… someday?" I asked as I smiled at her and she chuckled as she spoke,"Sure."

"It's a date then,"I joked a little, and she just observed me for a few moments before a mischievous smile appeared on her face,"so you have grown up enough to flirt with me, huh?" At this I just smiled at her, and she continued,"sure. I will be waiting for our first date. Take me out, but you will be having only one chance. Nothing more, nothing less."

I looked at her for a few seconds and said,"Look forward to the best date you ever had in your entire life," at which she simply smiled before nodding.

"You said something happened?" she asked curiously as she looked at me and I nodded as I answered,"I mate a couple of strong people."

"Strong people?" A tinge of confusion appeared on her face before I showed her that blessing.

[Blessing of the ONE: All hidden paths will be opened to you when you make a choice regarding your existence(Only works under certain conditions)]

"?!!!" Her eyes opened up wide as she looked at me. She observed me for a couple of moments before looking at the blessing over and over. I did not know what happened, but it really did shock the heck out of Rhea.

'Never saw her this shocked before,' I thought as I observed her expressions changing from stupefied to ridiculous before she looked at me again.

"Are you the son of Goddess of Luck, herself?" she asked with an expression of stupefaction on her face and I kind of scratched the back of my head,"Not really."

My expression was a bit blissful, which kinda annoyed her as she smacked my head

-Boom! Pushing me to the ground at once. It alerted the others, but then standing up slowly; they calmed down a little before observing me more curious.

"Stop it with that smug face. Damn it… this changes everything,"spoke Rhea as she looked at me with an amazed expression before continuing,"I doubt you have any idea what exactly even that blessing does. But before I explain that, can you at least tell me how you ended up getting that blessing?"

"Nope. You don't tell me everything either. I will- Okay! Okay! I will tell you,"I looked at the glaring face of Rhea and immediately changed my expression. She looked super annoyed at this point as she spoke,

"I don't tell because, If I tell one answer, it will make you even more confused and you won't even understand most of the talk. And even if you somehow do end up understanding it, you will be left with more questions than answers. You think I like hiding things from my own host? Also, if you end up gaining certain knowledge before you are powerful enough to defend yourself, you will only end up getting yourself killed."

Though her explanation made sense, still not knowing the context kept me off the loops a little. Still, I did not mind. As long as I can get some of the answers I can, I don't mind.

And this I began explaining to her about how I ended up meeting Angela, and how it led me to the knowledge of Ais, which later led me to Aether Again. What I found more confusing was that Rhea did not know who Aether was.

'He really is special. There is no doubt about that. But then why does Rhea not know anything about him? Hmmm… memory lock or something?' I pondered on my own as I explained how I got to meet the Goddess of Fate and heard about the Lord of Fate.

When I mentioned the name of the Goddess of Fate, Clotho, Rhea was beyond shocked as she observed me with the same ridiculous expression as before. It looked like she wanted to say many things, but she didn't speak even a single word. The feeling it gave me was that she was not allowed to ask or speak about what she was thinking.

Later on, I explained about what Aether did and she was super shocked at that as well. The fact that he was a human, the fact that he was talking as an equal with Klotho, the fact that he held Ais and killed him, everything about him, shocked Rhea as she grew more and more. In the end, even she spoke,

"If there was someone like that in history, I would have surely known about him… did someone erase my memory?"
