Chapter 86 Elves
[Seventh Boss Floor!]
[Kill the Boss Zombie!]
There was something different about this Zombie…
[C-Grade Zombie Eladrin(All Stats Tripled)(Health +2000%)]
[Being of one of the Elf Races, Eladrin, which boasted high Mana Capacity and High Dexterity, this one has developed beyond its capabilities. Previously as a High Archer, his precision is unmatched, and given his strong legs, it can reach anywhere within seconds.
While he does not have any other specific specialization, what it's good at has been upgraded beyond its Grade, making it comparable to the B-Grade Zombies]
"He isn't human," I spoke as I observed him. I didn't need [Inspect]'s help. One look and I can tell… he hasn't evolved from a human being..
"He was an Elf… an Eladrin, to be precise," spoke Erina as she observed the Zombie with pity in her eyes. I looked at Erina for a few moments before turning to see him again.
"What happened… you look sad," I spoke as I peeked at Erina for a few moments and she sighed before speaking,
"Kill it first. Let's talk later."
I nodded before
"Erina… give me a boost."
She turned at me as she chanted,"[Aura of the Wind God] [Aura of the Light Goddess] "
[You have been given a temporary boost of +20 Dexterity]
[You have been given a temporary boost of +15 Strength and +10 Dexterity]
[Temporal Deceleration!]

First let's check from the [Monster Index]

I saw him moving… at atleast 33% of my normal speed around and a smile formed on my face as I observed him.
'If this is his max speed, then… I guess, I really do have a chance with B-Grade zombies… though let's hope there is nothing more to it,' I sighed before moving closer to him with my weapon in hand.
I saw him reaching his waist but when his hands reached there; he grew a bit confused as he observed that area.
'What is he doing?'
He then looked at me with a bit of glare as he fumbled all over his body trying to search something…
'He is… getting restless… frantic… is that… even possible?!' my eyes turned open wide as I saw him searching all around his body like a madman.
I moved closer to him… and with each step that I was taking, his eyes were shifting between me and his body as he kept searching harder and harder.
"Are you… searching for your bow and arrow?" I asked out of nowhere as I realized what he was trying to do… Didn't the description say that he was an archer before he turned into a Zombie?
Hearing my voice, his eyes turned at me a bit bright…
"Can you understand me?" I asked as I tried to make sense out of this situation… however… he was just staring confused at me…
"I guess it's instinctive? Maybe…" I sighed as I almost grew hopeful that maybe he could retain his memories or something.
'Maybe a B-Grade could? Or perhaps an A-Grade… well, let's find out when we reach that point,' I thought as I moved towards that guy.
That Zombie first looked at me, then freaked out a little more before he started running away from me. I saw him moving around randomly as his speed matched to that of a normal person.
'I guess he is using his skill now,' I thought as I saw his sudden increased speed and ran towards him before
-BOOM!!!
I hit him once…
-BOOM!!!
Twice..
Thrice…
And many, many more times…
Until…

[Floor 49 Cleared!]
[Extra Time Left: 44240 seconds!]
[Extra time will be added to the next Floor!]
[Grade for Floor 49: SSS]
[All Floor clear rewards will be calculated in the end!]
After I killed him, I slowly sighed before I observed that guy disappearing into ashes and prayed in silence,
"May whosoever be your God, may he grant you a peaceful afterlife."
Then I turned to Erina, looking at that guy too, before she turned at me and spoke.
"Wanna know about the Fallen Race of Elves?"
I pondered a little before I nodded,"let's talk about it as we walk up."
She shook her head with a long sigh as she muttered,"most people won't even have time to breathe after reaching this floor."
"Why so?" I asked curiously as I stretched a little before moving towards the next floor. She, too, followed me as she spoke,
"Nothing. Well… as for the Elves…"
[You have entered 50th Floor]
"There were many variants of them, Vanyar, Noldor, Eladrin, each holding a specific power, skill or mana attribute that was exclusive to them. Something that made them better than others."
[Kill All the Zombies!]
I stretched a little as I listened to her while I waited for them to take shape…
"Eladrin, the one whom you fought just now, were someone who had skills and power related to dexterity and was hailed as the best archers of their planet. They also had air related skills… which sadly they couldn't use after turning into Zombies."
I was about to activate my ability, but hearing her last words, I stopped for a few moments, turned to her in silence… then…
"Wait a sec," I spoke
[Temporal Deceleration!]
[Temporal Deceleration (Copy)!]
-BOOOM!!!!!!
-BOOM!!!!

[Floor 50th Cleared!]
"Now continue… and focus more on the Zombie part," I muttered, and she nodded before speaking,
"When the Zombies invaded planet Alfheim, a war started between the turned and the unturned. In the beginning, the low grade Zombies were easier to deal with. In fact, all the Zombies were killed before they could infect the planet. But soon as time passed, even those who didn't turn started developing Zombie powers, becoming powerful and started chanting 'A new era has started' and stuff."
There was a pained look on Erina's face, but she continued still,
"It was a big mistake. In the end… while they had sanity in the beginning, their behavior turned more and more warmonger-like. From beings that lived on plants, they started feasting on animals, soon turning to their own kin."
A chill ran down my spine as I heard her words.
"Soon enough, almost the entire planet had died before anyone could realize and all that was left there were mindless monsters that have lost their will completely to that Zombie Energy and the ancient relics of the past that are nothing more than useless ornaments for others."
I kept staring at her as she finished with her explanation and asked,
"So… did anyone find a way to undo the Effects of Zombification?"
