[You didn't mind that your power regressed. After all, even if your power had regressed, you were still stronger than when you were at S-rank Intermediate Stage with air manipulation alone since in this timeline, you had already awakened a second superpower.]
[At most, only your viral energy had decreased as well as your body's physical strength but your control over your air superpower didn't regress. Even so, you were still confident that you could defeat anyone in this world aside from the unknown mastermind of the zombie virus.]
[And besides, even you don't know whether the zombie virus was man-made or a punishment by god or a celestial existence. And even if it was man-made, was it perhaps an accident or not?]
[If it was an accident, it was possible that the mastermind had already died and become a zombie. If it wasn't an accident, then the mastermind might have already utilized the zombie virus possibly even much more profound than you.]
[Of course, you are confident that the mastermind of the zombie virus could use the zombie virus much better than you, but it was impossible for the mastermind to even be at A-rank let alone S-rank since the strongest zombie was only at E-rank.]
['Unless… the zombie virus was already cultivated years ago and it was only released until now. If that is the case, the mastermind might be at S-rank or even at SS-rank.' When you thought about such a possibility, you couldn't help but shudder in fear. But you regained your confidence again since even if the mastermind was overpowered, you could keep on resetting this world until you could defeat him.]
['So what if the mastermind is the strongest in this world? Heh, I'll keep on resetting this world and returning back in time until I can defeat him!' After regaining your confidence, you decided to improve your power as much as possible in this world.]
[Your confidence lies in your simulation system. But you realized that it was only plausible as long as you didn't get an S-grade as your simulation score. 'It seems my plan is to estimate my achievements in the simulation and eliminate myself to end the simulation before it can reach S-grade']
[At least, you will keep on performing this simulation until you discover the identity of the mastermind as well as you are confident enough to defeat him. But for now, you treated this third simulation to further practice and improve your skills on utilizing your recently acquired mind control superpower.]
[Not to mention, you still have to become stronger and recover your regressed power while spending time with Lynn.]
[After Lynn became an A-rank Late Stage zombie, she familiarized herself with her newfound power but since she had recovered her memories in the previous timeline, she noticed that she was no different from you. In other words, it was like she accompanied you in resetting the world since both of you retained your power, experience, and memories.]
[The Remember Me (Blue) talent was only a blue-grade talent so it wasn't omnipotent. For example, you could only use it to recover the memories of someone about you but not entirely the memories they had in that timeline. It just so happened that Lynn always spent time with you, whether she was training or not. So those memories were included when her memories were recovered by your Remember Me (Blue) talent.]
[Because of that, Lynn recovered her memories in the previous timeline from the time she had met you, to the time she had died.]
[The only difference was that your power regressed but you still acquired the mind control superpower in this timeline. You became more confident and after Lynn and you were ready, you and Lynn left the dormitory.]
[After leaving the dormitory, you and Lynn were greeted with the sight of countless zombies rummaging through the hallway, finding humans to infect.]
["By the way, Lynn. I have awakened a new superpower. Guess what it is?" You playfully asked Lynn as she looked at you with curiosity.]
[Lynn had recovered her memories about the previous timeline and in the previous timeline, she wasn't just flirting with you. She was well aware of what happened in the world since not only had she accompanied you in your research, but also when you acquired intelligence and information about evolved zombies and human awakeners.]
[Because of that, Lynn knew that it was almost impossible for someone to awaken two superpowers at the same time. But it wasn't impossible since you and Lynn had indeed encountered someone before who could use two superpowers.]
[So, Lynn wasn't surprised that you awakened another superpower but she was only curious as to what superpower you had awakened.]
[You didn't let Lynn wait any longer so you displayed the usage of your mind control superpower. Mobilizing the viral energy in your body and using your mind control superpower, you spread it out to all of the zombies in the hallway.]
[Out of Lynn's surprise, she witnessed that all of the zombies who were mindlessly rummaging through the hallway had become organized. All of the zombies in the hallway looked at you and Lynn and afterward, all of the zombies kneeled!]
["You can control zombies? Is that your new superpower?" Lynn asked to you curiously.]
[With your mental perception, you had already noticed that some of the survivors on the first floor of the girl's dormitory had witnessed your action and might have possibly heard Lynn's words. And coupled with the scene of zombies kneeling to you and Lynn, they might have known about it.]
[But you didn't mind. After all, a dead man tells no tales. You never planned to let anyone here alive.]
[You never cared about the consequences of doing that. Whether you are causing genocide or not, you can just reset the world and all the people or zombies that you have killed will be alive again in the next timeline.]
[You can do everything you want in the simulation!]
