I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

When he noticed my gaze, Stephen cleared up his throat before saying:

“If they got enough stat points, then you can consider them equal to any grown up and elite Hescos.”

“This…” I sized this group of seven stars up and down before adding, “I hope what you say is true. If so, then this will be one of the best things that ever happened to my kingdom so far.”

“They will,” Stephen spoke in such confidence that made me think highly of this force, “may I ask to speak with them?”

“Sure,” I waved my arm and left below many stat crystals for this one thousand’s use.

Once Lily went down below, I reminded her to find Isac and inform her about the ongoing grand construction project in the other world.

I left Angelica to handle that project, but I knew it’d be asking too much out of her to let her lead that project alone.

Besides, Isac didn’t have much to do here anyway.

After I got done from all that, I was finally free to resume invading the other worlds.

“First I have to go and get Legend back,” I recalled Silverlining. That jerk promised me more than once to send the rewards once he received them.

But even after all these days, he still hasn’t sent me anything.

I went towards the world where Legend was. After that crushing defeat, the Hescos evaded my forces out there.

Yet they never left behind a single working portal. I didn’t know how they managed to do so, but that didn’t stop me.

I’d waste one more ticket to get him back, but it was worth it.

The moment I appeared there, the scene of ruins and marks of that brutal battle welcomed my eyes. I looked at such grand defensive structures all over the place before opening a chat with Legend.

I asked him to come here as fast as he could. Also I let him know about what was awaiting for him. He said he’d need a few hours before coming, and I didn’t hurry him.

He was acting as one of the leading generals in this world. So I waited and during this time, I started gathering more bones.

If I was going to wait, then it was better to make the best of my wait.

I also sent a harsh message to Silverlining.

[I know you are pissed off, but believe me, it’s out of my power. There are few sovereigns here who wanted to give you something grand]

[I need lots of support, forces, warriors, treasures, and above all tickets] I sent to him, [Send these over and leave that last gift for later]

[Ahem! But I don’t dare to do that!] He sent such a message that instantly turned my rage metre to max. [Sorry pal, but I’m forced to not send anything before that great gift is ready]

[Damn you!] I closed the chat in frustration. I tried to ask about this mysterious gift, but even he didn’t know what it was about.

All he knew was that such a gift would change the fate of an entire race per the words of his sovereigns.

I released my anger over the bodies around, moved fast and claimed tons of bones while waiting for Legend.

If what Silverlining said was true, then I’d wait for this gift. But I still lack support in many places.

The last battle glared up on my top weakness. It wasn’t just the weakness of elites, but the lack of enough artefacts.

I knew trying to get such treasures would take a long time and tons of resources and wealth. I got my bones to use, but I lacked means to get my hands over these artefacts.

Aside from the auctions that belonged to the famed merchants and auction houses out there in the universe.

Gaining tickets to such events would be hard, and fighting tons of people over the small number of artefacts was going to be much harder than winning a battle against the Hescos.

Yet I knew there was no shortcut for such a dream to come true. I had to get prepared, accumulate all the bones I could and start storing them up.

I didn’t explode in rage in the face of Silverlining as I’d need his help later on in such matters. Aside from him and his sovereigns on my side, I didn’t know of anyone to help as much.

He and his people wouldn’t just help me secure such tickets, but also might exchange artefacts for my high grade bones.

“Sorry for such a late lord,” he shouted from afar. That little kid seemed to be unable to control his excitement over his next role.

“But we never managed to find a working portal around so far. How can we return?” He stopped his chariot just a distance away from mine, while I was busy collecting bones.

This battleground wasn’t any lesser than the one I personally led. The number of bones I gathered so far was enough to make me want to continue.

And I planned to do so.

“Just use this portal,” I simply took one ticket out, activated it, before returning again to work on collecting my bones, “go back and seek Lily. she’ll give you enough armies and lead you to that world. You know what to do next, right?”

“Sure, leave this task for me,” he patted his chest while his face told me how excited and eager he was.

Seeing him reminded me of Sara. The two might be considered fighting freaks, but one was absorbed in full offence and the other used his brain and tactics to fight.

I couldn’t tell who was better than the other, but I’d select Legend anytime over Sara.

I watched him vanish through the portal before storing up this place in my staff and then resumed my work here.

I took almost half a day to finish collecting all the bones.
