I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

It was indeed awesome, but not just for cleansing my channel off these two curses. The messages I got held more news than I just said to the grandmaster.

Yet for now I had to regain my strength before returning back to my apocalypse. I had a huge debt to settle with the bastard who did that to me.

“So have you figured out who did this to me, boss?” midway while recuperating, I asked with bright eyes.

I wanted my revenge. I wasn’t the kind to let someone punch me in the face without going to kill his entire family in return!

“I’m sure now… Both of them cursed you each with a different kind of a curse,” he said something that made my eyes wide open.

“Is that true?” I asked, “both of them? Not just one?”

He instantly shook his head before adding in a firm tone:

“I told you before, the price of a single curse is just too high for even an ordinary god. And you got cursed by two different curses! That means only one possible explanation; the two cursed you.”

“Hmm…” I never expected that the two I suspected before would end up cursing me both. I could understand the motives behind the Curasee race god’s actions. But the jumper’s god… that was weird.

“Anyway you shall go back and have a long conversation with your jumper,” the grandmaster said before throwing something that I caught midair, “this is the emblem of your rank, fine blue. You are now in the top five ranks in the entire impact. Just drop your blood over it and your system will do the rest.”

“Thanks boss,” I said, “I’ll be sure to repay this kindness one day.”

“If you want, then pay by your channel success,” he waved his hand while moving away, “recently the number of new streamers plummeted without a reason. It seems I was slacking a lot recently… What a regret, tsk…”

As he moved away, his words turned into whispers then into vague noise before he vanished behind one of the doors here.

“Congratulations on the high rank,” just before I could do anything to the emblem, Sissy said while slightly bowing her head.

“You don’t need to do that,” I said to stop her.

“It’s our custom here, after all you are two ranks higher than me,” she said in a clear envious tone. Girl, even if you were feeling envious at the moment, you should learn how to control yourself better than this.

“Thanks for the help before,” I said to her, “can I add you to my friend list? I’m just new to this business and might need to ask questions from time to time.”

“Sure,” she extended her arm and I touched hers. The strange thing I felt was softness instead of hardness. I thought scales were meant to be hard, not this soft as if they were the smoothest skin ever!

“Thanks,” as I accepted her ad, I said before asking, “how can I return back?”

“Just use the emblem and link it to your system,” she said before adding, “in your interface you’ll find an option to go back.”

[Do you want to bind this fine blue of DIWI?]

“Yes,” I said and the next moment that emblem vanished.

[Binding is complete]

[You can now access the impact interface from your profile]

I opened that interface to be met with lots of items being sold. All different kinds of reels, broadcasting tips, short clips, even exchanging subscribers were there.

Damn! This was a totally new world for me.

As I looked closely, ignoring all the interesting items being sold there like a big media auction, I found a way to exit from the impact.

It was a small icon at the bottom right of this window. “I’ll see you later,” I waved towards Sissy who simply harrumphed, turned around and left.

This girl… She was of that kind… the bitter loser.

*Fwoosh!*

Like I came here, I passed through a whirlpool that took me back to Albany city.

I was still standing in the central area. It took me long hours to get this problem solved.

Before doing anything, I first sent messages to all of my team members, asking about their current progress and latest details.

All were having fun, even my girl. All except one. The jumper was pissed off from the chasing and tracking mission I assigned to him.

Dude… You were this happy before about this mission. And now you were complaining? What did you think about this mission then? You’d walk to the Berserkers and fight them to get the girl back?

But he had more good news than his useless complaints. That girl was spotted closer to my city, just less than fifty miles away.

She was seen by the Berserkers. That dude acted slightly tough and hit any scouting teams belonging to Wryly’s side. I knew I told him to disguise himself and his force before attacking the Berserkers, but that was to just get the girl out of their hands.

Going all around attacking Wryly’s teams would instigate more unforeseen reactions from these Berserkers. As he sent me the good news he got from the mouth of one of those scouting teams by his methods, he also threw one piece of bad news.

[I noticed the increase in those Berserkers’ movements. They are sending out more teams around the city. My guess is that they are trying to get the girl first]

No dude! You just alarmed them of your presence and so they just did that to respond against such provocation!

I rolled up my eyes while taking a deep breath. That jumper was a source of trouble no matter where or when he was.

I decided not to tell him about my opinion. If I told him that, he might go even bolder and fight more with these teams to show off his dominance.

He should have stuck to the original plan and kept hidden as long as possible. Anyway, what happened happened already, so I just asked him to be more careful.

As for that girl… as she was coming towards my direction I should just stick around and wait for her. After that I’d plan things with her on a wider scale.

I still didn’t know how strong she and her forces were. If she held a power equal to mine in size and diversity, then it would be great.

The last crushing defeat she suffered from that dragon archlord meant her forces were outplayed in strength and witts. Hopefully she would be a smart girl and knew it was better to ally herself with someone like me, a human like her.

As I received all the new updates about my scattered forces in this area, I had now time to check the messages I got back at the DIWI impact.

[Congratulations! You managed to cleanse your channel off one curse]

[Congratulations! You managed to cleanse your channel off two curses]

[You managed to achieve a feat unprecedented before]

[Congratulations! You got one point of favorability from the system higher ups]

[You gained one heroic calling usage for free]

[Your channel got an upgrade]

[Your channel is now at rank silver]

[You are eligible to broadcast to the nearest one hundred apocalypse to you for one hour per day]

[You can select the videos you want to broadcast]

[Your rank as a streamer got upgraded]

[You are now a grade bronze streamer]

[You can now make business cards in the form of videos, images, and words to describe you and put them into the general streaming forums]

[You can access the forum from your channel interface]

[Your channel got a free expansion package]

[You can now accept support from one hundred thousand being]

[You got a free god blessing slot after the current quest is done]

[You got the blueprint to build a broadcasting station]

[This station can work to cover certain range in the world you are living in]

I was thrilled by everything, no doubt, but the most rewarding thing that made my heart palpitate was none other than the last one.

Damn! Wasn’t that the thing I was looking for all this time? Of course it wasn’t like the far practical way of communication with other humans here, but at least it could close the existing gap until I finish that chain quest.

A station that could broadcast everything I and my team would do all the time was an awesome tool. This way other humans near me could get inspiration, learn from our mistakes and good points, even try to come towards us and join my forces.

If this station had a good covering range, then it would solve a great deal of time and trouble.

It was like a heroic calling, yet on a smaller scale and without the need to do crazy stuff to get that thing.

Without any hesitation I opened my inventory to find an old looking green paper lying in calm inside my swelled up inventory.

I needed to clean my inventory off any useless shitty gears and monster materials before the end of the quest. But that wasn’t the time to do it now.

[Broadcasting station blueprint: Green grade blueprint. Can be used by someone with attributes towards building and architecture. The required materials needed and the way to build it are all demonstrated in details inside the blueprint. Upgradeable.

Conditions for building it: 1. Having someone with an affinity suited to read this blueprint. 2. Have all the materials needed. 3. Have at least ten thousand builders. 4. Have total control over a city with a civilised heart in it.

Conditions for upgrading the blueprint to the silver grade: 1. Have ten million stat points or equivalent amounts of other energy sources. 2. One hundred people with affinity suited to read the blueprint. 3. One of them must have an Earth grade attribute. 4. Paying fifty million views from the owner. 5. Having a coverage of at least one million miles in radius. 6. The city that has the broadcasting station must contain a branch from one of the streaming impacts across the universe.

Further conditions to upgrade the blueprint to higher grades will be unlocked after each upgrade]

I looked at the piece of paper in my hand closely before inwardly sighing. I tried to read it, but I lacked any suitable attribute to do so.

In front of me, this priceless blueprint was just a mere yellow and old tattered paper with dimmed lining and writings that gave no meaning!

I flipped it around but failed to see anything meaningful at all. After a few minutes of trying, I feared I’d damage it considering its old condition, and soon stored it away.

The conditions to build the station seemed a bit vague. Yet I knew I fulfilled few of these conditions, even including the upgrading conditions as well.

The one that might seem ridiculous was the city. Luckily I got this city under my control already. This city wouldn’t get to this extent without having a civilised heart in it.

Of course I didn’t know its location and didn’t care to look for it. The one that planted that heart would be the only one knowing about its place.

Its location must be kept all the time secretive, or else an enemy might infiltrate the city and dig that heart out of it. If that happened, then the heart would be damaged and the city would lose all the glory it had so far.

I once was worried that the dragon race might have a clue about that heart place. But for me I also doubted that. Such a grand secret would be kept hidden even from your forces.

As for the condition to have a branch from a streaming impact here… It was a piece of cake for me. I was now part of the DIWI and my rank there was quite high.

Even if I had to pay views as a cost to gain such privilege, I wouldn’t decline that.

Yet the view issue was a problem. I only had a few million views so far and I needed lots and lots of views. How could I gain more then?

“I’ll kill you son of b*tch!!!”

Just while I was lost in my own thoughts, a weird voice appeared out of nowhere just a couple of metres away from me. Just before I could turn to see who just dared to come and shout at me in such a rude way, all I saw was a flash of light before I felt intense pain at the left side of my face.

*Bang!*

And like a sandbag I was thrown to the ground, while a nice looking girl was glaring in intense rage at me.

F*ck! Who was this girl?!!! And what did I do to her to deserve this?!!!
