I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

932 You Were The One Who Inspired Me To Do All This!



“From now on, you will all get reassigned,” I shouted, not speaking to the one that stepped forward, but to all of them, “when I’ll leave here, I’ll take you all with me. I’ll give you an army to lead, and you’ll only answer to me.”

I have warriors as my personal army so far. They were strong indeed, but no matter how many I got from them, it never seemed enough.

Besides, I was a human overlord. How come I used only warriors from other races?

These ten thousand soldiers I liked. And they gave me such inspiration. Why wouldn’t I start forming my personal army out of humans?

The problem of deploying them would be solved with that warrior’s lair treasure I got from one of the Toranks sovereigns.

I could turn any race into warriors, store them into my inventory and call them out to fight whenever I wanted.

When I shouted and said these words, three different reactions appeared. One that came from all the soldiers as I could see and feel their true happiness from what I just said.

As expected, they craved bloodshed and huge fights. Staying here to guard wasn’t a good thing for such fierce lions.

The second came from none other than that jerk, Leo. his face darkened, as if he got stripped naked in front of his people.

As for the last, it was Alex. She looked at me in doubt and conflicted eyes, not helping to steal gazes at her man, wondering if this was my punishment for him.

“As for the stationed guards here, I’ll bring a hunger force here. They are fresh soldiers, so make sure to train them well,” I directed my words to Alex, making her conflicted gazes deepen.

As for Leo, his dark face turned bright for one second before his hatred overcame his joy, showing a fierce face.

“As for you… You are going to get reassigned,” I got fed up with him, “you are going to the frontlines, fighting as a normal soldier. Your life will be in your hands, and the hands of fate.”

I landed my words and left without waiting for anything from this jerk or his girl.

For Alex’s sake, I wouldn’t kill him with my hands. But that didn’t mean I’d let him continue acting this way.

If he chose this path, he got no one else but himself to blame.

“Lord…” and just as I walked towards the palace, I heard the pitiful scream from Alex while hearing her steps running after me. I didn’t stop until she ran and blocked my path.

“If you are going to send him out, send me as well,” she said, in such a fierce way as she made out her mind.

“Are you sure? You know that you got nothing to be blamed for.”

“He did all this for me,” she didn’t change that fierce look over her face, “and as such I have to carry my responsibility towards my man.”

“Sigh, silly kid… You got it all wrong…” I started walking until I stopped just next to her. I place my hand over her shoulder before adding:

“The one who should shoulder all these aren’t the ladies, but men. If a man can’t lower his head for the sake of his girl, then he doesn’t deserve that girl, least deserved to be called a man.”

“H… Hye…”

“Since day one I met you and I got that you have such pure heart,” I sighed, “you were once one of the human aces. You defied logic and fought against all the odds. You risked your life, can you tell me why?”

My words came as a sudden wake up call for her. Her body trembled under my hand while her eyes dazed out for a long minute.

“I… I did all this for our human race.”

“Do you still recall that? Great! Then tell me, one of the mighty and brave people of my kin, what happened for you to fall into such a low state of mind? Is love really that important? Or to be more clear, is your heart choice… Correct?”

This time she trembled more violently and I decided to let her think about what I just said.

“You have to know this…” and just as I walked a few steps away, I had to stop and say these words loud and clear, without turning to her, “you were the one who showed me, the mighty overlord of humans, the right path to take at that time. It’s you and other aces who started the fire of rebellion, did the hardest step of antagonising injustice and tyranny. And I just followed behind. Don’t let me down, one of my human heroes, don’t let yourself down.”

As I said my last words, I resumed walking with such a heavy heart. Indeed I came back wanting to have a class and get a nice life and all.

But if I thought back about it, and if I was truly honest with myself, then I had to admit that she and other aces got a huge role in what I became.

It was since knowing about the aces, about her, that I started to think seriously about helping my human race. Before meeting her, before learning about her presence, all I aimed for was to just survive.

Yet when I heard about what she and others did, I got to realise there was another mission waiting out for me. I came back in time not just to give myself a better life, but to give all humans a chance in living a decent life.

Such a person who inspired me to be what I was right now ended up in such a deep pit thanks to a wrong decision.

Her heart was free to choose, but who said her role ended by just surviving that deadly star weapon attack at the Statue of Liberty island?

Her path didn’t end there, it just got started. She got strayed off the right path, for such a long time already.
