As for the time when the ten worlds' doors would be opened, things would go hectic at all fronts.
That was something I was sure about. The losses of the enemy at these two worlds would drive them insane! So they'd try everything they got, they'd aim to stop me from reaching the twenty worlds.
But no matter how hard they tried, I planned to crush everything they'd throw at my way. And that was also part of the reason why I asked Lily and others to stay defensive.
If they kept defending for so long, the enemy would grow used to this. They'd think my forces weren't able to attack, and wouldn't place so much importance on these worlds.
I wanted them to make that mistake. At the moment they'd lose their grip here, I'd flip the switch, move my forces towards an all out offence and clear all the portals leading to these worlds.
As I promised her, I started to roam the twenty worlds, leaving behind tons of warriors and stat crystals. I got lots of crystals from Silverlining before, and it was time to put them at good use.
It took me a few days to get such a thing done. As for my generals, I asked them to stay at ground zero, and most responded to my orders, all but two.
The first was indeed that jumper. That dude started to roam the twenty worlds, without any proper reason for this.
I got reports from Lily about his weird movements, and ordered her to remain silent and not care about that.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThat dude kept moving around, not doing anything at all but to visit the twenty worlds. He kept moving from one to another, without doing anything else.
As for the second person, it was Isabella.
And she wasn't the one to break my orders, but her boy, the spearhead!
He grew insane the moment he learnt about what the jumper did and he couldn't. So he took her with him, and started to chase me around while I was doing my task.
"Boss, please listen to me, the jumper already went with you. Why can't I do that?"
"Tsk! I already told you, he came with his own abilities and got punished for that."
"No, he didn't!" The spearhead turned to Isabella who remained all silent. She seemed to tell everything that happened to the spearhead, and with good intentions she explained everything including the jumper's joining and not getting severely punished by me.
I made the jumper lead warriors at the first battle, which was part of his punishment. But the real punishment he got was his current nightmare with his god and the man he wanted to save.
I couldn't tell that jerk about the other jerk's hardships. And so it was impossible to convince the spearhead with such words.
"Boss, please don't be partial towards me," he shouted, acting as if he didn't care about getting punished, "I want to come with you, just like that jumper!"
"If you have the ability, then come with us depending on your abilities," I paused before adding, "however I have to warn you. The gates of the enemy are protected with fierce explosive shields. If I didn't intervene at the perfect time and saved that jerk, he'd be long gone by now."
"But you saved him!"
"I can't guarantee I'll do the same thing again," I shrugged, putting a carefree expression on my face.
"Boss, please, we both go way back to the early days of the apocalypse."
"Don't try convincing me, as I won't," I said in a threatening tone, "you shall learn how to handle the tasks here and trust in your girl's abilities."
"I'm not doing anything here!"
"Believe me, soon enough you'll find yourself very busy to not have the time to stretch your back over a bed or even find time to come here and pester me like this!"
Even if I kept arguing with him, I never stopped my hands from taking out warriors and stat crystals.
I kept taking warriors for days, and that jerk kept chasing me nonstop like crazy.
After some time, I started to grow dull towards his presence, and totally ignored him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Boss, please, take me with you, please," when I finished my tour around, the spearhead knew I'd take everyone and jump away and he wouldn't be able to follow.
Even if he tagged along, he wasn't as brave and daring as the jumper. That dude was all talk with no actions at all.
"I told you, stay here and trust everyone to do their tasks," I said in a plain tone. Getting enraged from this dude wasn't going to solve anything. So ignoring him was the best thing to do to deal with such a jerk.
"Please boss…"
"Jump in," I said to everyone of my selected generals. And when that jerk remained on the chariot, I glared at him and didn't say anything, but he knew if he didn't step out on his own, he'd get kicked out and embarrass himself.
"Boss, please consider…" Even when he returned back to his chariot, that dude kept shouting while I vanished through the portal, heading towards one of the hot spot worlds.
I selected a totally different world this time. I sent a message to Lily, confirming that everyone on our side got inside the shields.
I was gone for almost one month. And that meant my shields here kept taking damages and storing them for all this time without releasing a single speck of energy out.
And so I planned to give the enemy here a little surprise before going towards a new world.
[We are ready!]
[Good!] I didn't hurry to activate the offensive attack from my shields all over this world. I just visited the frontline, left tons of warriors without stat crystals there to attract the heat of locusts, and then returned back to the central zone.
I jumped later towards the other seven worlds, and started to activate the offensive attacks there.
