I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

Imagining such scary worms flying in the air, treating the clouds like they were ground, made me want to do it right away!

However this wasn’t the time for such an experiment.

I controlled my desire, and kept scanning the entire area around my controlled zone. The enemy kept calling back his forces, driving them thousand miles away from my zone.

They created such an open space here, enough to make me feel safe. And yet I couldn’t.

“Go, secure this region and make sure no hostile forces step a single foot inside!”

I wasn’t the one who determined such a large scale area to be a buffer zone. And just like old humans using mines, I scattered ten of the worms all over the place, asking them to defend this zone and kill anyone trespassing.

After doing this, the time limit I gave to Isac was almost over.

[We are ready!] she sent just before I’d return back, [We are ready to move out]

[Who is going to stay?] I asked, and she gave me the name of one of the new generals.

All of my friends were coming with me. [I’m coming!] I opened a portal, took a last glance at this world, before passing through it.

It was time to go back.

I returned and found all of my generals standing there. They were just waiting to leave, and I found the one who was selected to stay behind.

“You are going to remain here,” I said to the one selected by Isac, “don’t underestimate the enemies here. They are quite resourceful and very powerful.”

“I know,” that dude who was called George said, while nodding his head in acknowledgement. And yet I didn’t stop here.

“I just faced something…” I started to explain what I experienced, explaining not only to him but to others about how hard it was to deal with these islands.

“So keep your forces inside and defend for now,” this was the task I wanted him to do, “if the enemy came with something you can’t face, go through the portal I’ll leave here. Or send someone with a message, explaining everything here to Lily.”

“Sure,” he nodded, and this time I got that he really meant it.

“Are we going to face such things in other worlds?” Sara asked, seemingly not afraid by what I said. Instead, she got excited about it.

“I believe we will face more surprising things in other worlds,” I learned that each leader of those fiends got a few tricks up their sleeves.

The first dude got the fire and cloud artefacts. Then he asked for help, and another dude came and provided the worms and the Exomachines.

Perhaps there were two and not one who helped here. Each one of these scary beings was enough to be considered an ace for anyone.

Then the islands came, and that announced the appearance of a new leader.

I got to learn this lesson quite well. And so I knew the ones I was going to fight against next would use new tricks.

I couldn’t tell what trick they would use, but I was sure each trick was going to be something terrifying.

I pushed aside such worries and took out the second half of one of the teleports. I already activated their first halves back at ground zero.

The moment that half touched the ground, it changed and a huge portal appeared next.

“What about our forces?” Isabella asked, and I shrugged as if this was nothing I should care about.

“We’ll leave them here,” the general who was going to lead this place was destined to face tons of armies alone.

So he should get all the help that he could, including the warriors of other generals.

I took back all the elite warriors who belonged to me. As for the Exomachines that followed my lead and were still moving, I decided to leave them here.

I left the order for every single warrior of mine to follow the lead of George. Then I passed through the portal, while my ten generals followed with their chariots.

[Any news?]

I returned back to ground zero. I sent a message once again here, asking her about the updates.

[We are getting hit severely bad at all fronts] she sent such news before adding, [The enemy sent Silences and they dealt lots of damage to our people]

[Are we losing?] I knew leaving for this long and causing such trouble out there would result in much fiercer moves of the enemy here.

So it wasn’t that surprising to hear such news. I only cared if we were facing defeat or not.

[So far so good] And she sent the good news over, [We are using all the warriors you left behind. Till now, the enemy couldn’t break through our central zones. And the shields you left behind are still standing]

[Good] I knew I ordered everyone here to keep themselves at check, not venturing outside, fearing such retaliation from the enemy.

And it was great that they listened to my words like that.

[What’s good about that? We lost almost half of the warriors you left for us!]

[It doesn’t matter] I knew this wasn’t a big loss. I got nothing else but tons of warriors in my inventory.

[But…]

[I will take a tour now, and will leave enough warriors to use] I paused before adding, [I’ll spread all of them over the twenty worlds. As for your arrangement for them, you can handle such a thing personally]

[Fine! Are we going to stay behind? Not attack?]

[Not now!] It wasn’t yet time for that, [Don’t forget, the doors to the twenty worlds will open soon. Prepare our forces, we need to defend here plus actively take part at these worlds’ dilemmas]

[Ok] I felt that she wasn’t that satisfied about what I said. But it wasn’t yet the time for offence.

What I was doing at the enemy ten homelands was enough offence already. Their task was to handle the pressure, while I’d handle the offence for now.
