I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

As I expected, he wasn't a coward like Matte or other useless paragons I got so far. He acted like a real powerhouse, showing the prestige of his race.

The only question though was if such a person would accept serving me or not. It'd be a loss if he decided to sacrifice himself for his beliefs. And that troublesome possibility made me totally ignore that dude, take a longer path around the fourth room, and went towards the last one.

It was better to crush any hope for his race to survive or win this war in front of his eyes. Even if that held the possibility of making him more enraged or hopeless, it also had the chance to sway his opinion about me.

If I showed him I won his race in this war fair and square, if I showed him how strong and formidable I was, then perhaps he'd consider serving me.

Or else, he'd end up dying at the end, and I'd just lose a potential capable general, on the same calibre of Legend, Isac, and Lily.

"I won't hurt anyone anymore!" Just as I took the longer path towards the fifth zone, that dude appeared out of nowhere and started raining his fists over my shield.

Tsk! He was indeed brave! Did he think I wasn't able to handle him? Let's see how he'd deal with this move then.

I came here prepared. I took out my staff and simply activated it and jumped back to the fourth base.

I knew this dude was brave and daring, and would chase after me if I moved to target the fifth base.

So before moving away I saved the bookmark of the fourth base and it proved handy. Once I jumped to the fourth base, I didn't delay and started attacking the two other paragons there.

At the same time, my technique was ready and my threads sprinted into action.

"Stop! If you are a man, come and fight me!" I heard his roars from far away. But he was slightly late. One of the two paragon's shields broke and that dude had no other choice but to succumb to me.

He signed the contract and I left him behind bleeding from the wound of his right arm. I had to chop that arm myself so I'd save little time.

Then I went to stop that enraged paragon from interfering with my actions here. I still didn't get the other generals, the more important asset.

"I know you are angry, but eventually you'll fall under my control or die by my glaive," I stopped his advance and welcomed his attacking barrage of fists. At the same time I kept my technique running and the entire forces here got almost invaded by my threads.

"You are despicable! Do you call yourself a man? If you are, stop all this madness and fight me!"

"What do you take me for? I'm not one of those high and mighty races like Hescos. I'm a human, and this human just fought against your people fair and square and crushed them all! What are you complaining about exactly? You want to fight me? Sorry, but I was fighting you and others for days now and you couldn't win!"

My words landed and all I got was a fierce roaring cry from him. His barrage of fists grew to another level, as if the artefact responded to his rage.

Regardless of what he felt, he couldn't say a single word to refute these facts.

I was fighting an entire squad of generals and paragons, supported by tons of forces and complicated defences. All they had to do was to defend and keep me at bay, and they failed.

What was he complaining about exactly? I shook my head before releasing contracts over the ones that got under my control. Gradually, all the forces here ended up under my control.

"Follow me if you dare," I didn't show any sign of weakness as I moved forward, pushed against his incoming fists and went towards the direction of the final zone.

"I'll kill you!" he roared, but I gave no heed to any of his bellowing words. I kept moving forward, even my chariot slammed against his suit as I noticed he was flying and not standing on the ground.

He was the first paragon to show his wings to me. I didn't know if he was an exception or all the others could fly but were too scared to even think about that.

"I will kill you! Do you hear me!" he kept screaming in rage while chasing after me. His speed wasn't any lower than my chariot, but I wasn't really moving my chariot in its top speed.

As I arrived at the fifth zone, I found none there. "Damn! He must have made them move away when I teleported from here," I felt a little headache coming from this.

"Stop and fight me if you dare!" he roared and I couldn't help but laugh. Did he think he'd stop me this way?

They were doomed the moment I dug a hole in their base. No matter where they'd run, they'd end up meeting my forces and either would die or get surrendered by my warriors.

If he got something annoying like a teleport gear or artefact just like the one I had then it'd be hard for me to stop them. But now all I did was to rise into the air, take a grand look over the entire base and focus more on the tunnels near that fifth zone.

If they ran since the moment I disappeared, then they'd not walk that far away. However I truly underestimated the might of fear over anyone.

I found them at a far away tunnel that'd take at least an hour to cross. They ran so damn fast, fearing to fall under my clutches and die.

I sighed. Even if there was someone capable and unique like that dude chasing after me in such rage, it wouldn't change the fate of those weaklings and cowards.
