I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

973 Shocking Truth Got Revealed



“What will I do? Hahahaha!” he suddenly broke out in such crazy laughter, “I once was a general, a fierce one to be honest. I was harsh, treated my forces in a way that no one can imagine. However… At one war I met them.”

“Hescos?” I asked and he slowly nodded.

“I got a record at my race, a legendary record… One that was supposed to last for thousands of years. However, in this battle… I got defeated… Utterly defeated!”

“Then…” if he got defeated, how come he ended up in the hands of Toranks?

“I got chased for a long time by them. Yet when they were this close to get me, Toranks army came and stopped them,” he motioned with two fingers to describe how close it was.

“And then it hit me… Even if I got a legendary record, I was such a fierce general, and had such mighty forces… I was doomed to lower my heads against such a tyrannical enemy. And since that day I have taken a vow on myself…”

“Turning into a scientist from that day then?” I got what made him change to become the man he was now.

“I devoted my life for the Toranks on one purpose, to get my hands over one of these damn suits and study it.”

“So… You only have hope and dreams, not real plans, right?” I liked his personal struggle, yet it wasn’t enough to convince me to let him see one suit.

“Of course not! I studied, did many things for the Toranks and exchanged my contributions with one thing; all the secrets about Hescos.”

“And?” It was an interesting story, but it wasn’t enough yet.

“I got to know lots of secrets and things about their suits. They ran on energy that came from the outer universe in the form of weird capsules. They needed long life training to adapt with these suits and let them grow with the one wearing them since he was a kid…”

“You mean… It’s like a living thing?”

“Close to… It has a heart, something that has let it grow with the person wearing it since he was born.”

“Interesting… So you’re telling me that the younger their people are, the weaker they are?”

“That’s a fact, but for any rule there are exceptions.”

My mind thought about the enemies I was going to face. They were supposed to be all youngsters, and that meant they got weak suits.

But they started this entire plan with the belief of winning. That meant they got someone who broke such a rule, a prodigy, an exception.

“And my luck ended up with that exception… How great is it?” I bitterly smiled.

“You bring what you deserve to yourself,” he shrugged, “and to rise another step, one has to conquer one who is far better than himself.”

“I got it,” I stopped him before turning all wise and boring, “so you got lots of info, but no plans, right?”

“I got plans,” he paused, “better to say theories.”

“I hate scientists,” I sighed, “so you have some sort of ideas to turn this situation around, right?”

“You can say that, but these are just ideas. They might be right, and most likely they’ll be wrong. And I have no way to test any as we don’t have any suits. Toranks has these and…”

“I got them,” I stopped him right here before repeating everything he just said, “I got Hescos with suits coming to me anytime I want.”

“This…” His eyes turned all wide open while his body started to tremble. I didn’t get how shocked he was, but I had to admit he was showing the most shocking reaction in his life for sure.

“You are not kidding me!!!” he suddenly held my two arms with his big two, making me look like I was a little kid in front of him.

However I wasn’t weak, and his strength didn’t cause more than a little pain.

“Just calm down,” I said, “I’m not joking. I’m the lord!”

“S… Sorry…” as I reminded him of my status, he slowly retreated his arms, yet his face kept that shocked expression, “but… Toranks refused to give me anything even after all the years I worked for them.”

“Money can unlock any closed doors,” I patted on his arm, “and I’m not like them. I don’t need many years of your life to get these. I’m asking for your contribution, the one that is yet to come, as a prize for this privilege.”

“Lord…” all of sudden he fell on his knees, lowered his head until it hit the ground of my chariot, “I’ll be your slave forever! I won’t forget such benevolence, ever in my life, I swear.”

It seemed that the old incident didn’t just contain his reputation and dreams shattered. Something huge must have happened back there. And he had to make such a decision with such a heavy heart and mind.

“Stand up,” I said, and even helped him to stand when he didn’t listen at first, “let’s not celebrate it too soon. You still have theories and not real plans.”

“Lord… I will make it work,” he said in such decisiveness and belief that made me infected with his confidence.

“I’ll depend on you then,” I patted on his arm, “I didn’t get them yet. I planned to train my forces with them when they arrive. But…”

“Training with them won’t work. Fighting enemies you can’t harm isn’t that nice. Without using cultivation power, none of this will work.”

“About that…” I suddenly recalled an old project of mine, one that I put into hold when I let many of my forces back then get baptised by the Hector guardian beasts’ blood, “I might have a solution.”

I bought something that could help anyone unlock cultivation. Yet it took lots of time, tons of preparations, and the result wasn’t quite satisfying.

And yet… didn’t that happen back at Earth? I suddenly looked around, before getting my eyes fixed over one direction.

Didn’t I have that pocket world? With such a grand time difference, don’t tell me it wasn’t going to work!
