I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

I laughed when I heard his words. It was expected for him and others to feel so.

"I don't have access to the outer battlefield wars right now," I said amidst my laughs, "besides, who said I only had these artefacts? Don't belittle your lord please."

They gave me long gazes that carried many unsaid words. I laughed more at their reaction and didn't say more.

I flew slowly over my various artefacts, and let them have their curiosity filled up before heading towards another interesting place.

"This…" the moment the chariot passed through the portal, these paragons sucked in a cold air of breath.

I took them towards the continents where my little Qi amassed tons of scary looking monsters and trained them in his special way.

But the impact of seeing such a grandiose gathering of scary monsters in the air, ground, and water made everyone shocked.

I inwardly laughed. And before I'd say anything, my little Qi came in with a grand gathering of much scarier monsters.

"Lord, you came to check on my progress, right?" That dude looked happy as he laughed next and added, "I'm trying my best to raise my little babies as you can see. What do you think? Am I doing it in a good way?"

"You are doing fine," I said in compliment, but that dude seemed to take my words in the wrong way.

"No, I wanted to be doing great!" he roared, and without saying anything he turned around and flew back, "I'll make my lord more impressed by me next time, I promise."

He vanished without giving me a chance to explain my point to him. When I saw him far away, and lots of monsters were attracted to his seemingly angry roars, I shook my head in helplessness.

I didn't mean to belittle his achievements. He was doing great already. But that dude seemed to be quite rash and wanted to truly impress me.

"Who was that?" just when I was feeling helpless from his attitude, Stephen asked while pointing towards my little Qi.

And weirdly enough, I noticed that the finger he used was slightly shaking and trembling.

Weird!

"It's my pet," I simply said, "he is the one leading the grand army of monsters here. With his help, I can control all the monsters in this world and the world above."

"This…" I couldn't tell what Stephen was feeling or thinking about right now, but it seemed meeting my little Qi left a deep impression inside his soul and others' as well.

After that I took them around the rest of the training ground in this world before finally stopping back at the first continent.

It was one that was designed for my research department. But next to it, an entire continent was dedicated to various settlements.

"You can go and live here if you wanted," I paused before adding, "or you can select to live at the other settlements back at the world above. Anyway, the tour is over and you saw everything related to this world."

Despite telling them that, the paragons kept their silence and didn't speak at all. I noticed they were looking at each other before Matte suddenly asked:

"Can I join them?" he pointed towards the research department before adding, "if I joined, will I be forced to fight?"

"Fight? No, the research department is responsible for making up new weapons and gears. Besides, I don't lack fighters as you can see."

I waved my arm around, referring to the grand number of forces training at different training grounds.

"Can we join the training forces? I mean as generals training them, not joining in any fight?" another paragon asked, and I slowly nodded.

"Sure, I lack lots of capable generals at these grounds after all," I paused before adding, "but those wanting to join these training grounds had to wait and come with me to Earth. The general leader of the training forces is someone called Isac, and she is the only one knowing where we need generals the most."

"Sure, count me in," that paragon said while a few others selected between the training grounds and the research department. But most of them decided to stay behind and live peacefully for some time.

And I didn't refuse their requests, even those asking to join the settlements and live peacefully out there.

After all, as few of them took the initiative to join me, others would seriously consider this. I also planned to speak with Isac later on and make sure she would allow for these paragons to visit the ones living in the settlements.

Using the words from their mouths would be the best method to lure more to join my forces here. As for Stephen, I waited for him to tell me his decision after delivering the others to their selected places.

The ones joining the research department looked the happiest and most excited among others. Matte was truly impatient as he jumped off my chariot before it even landed.

I got scared over this kid, fearing he'd end up hurting himself or something. But to my surprise, he gracefully landed without any problem, making me take a note of this.

These paragon kids might have faked weakness and cowardice, but they were indeed capable and unique talents.

Not a single one of them was weak. And I should stop underestimating them, stop taking them for the fools they took as a front.

"I recall you mentioning that this world of yours can't be touched by anyone, right?" When I delivered paragons to the research department and settlements, I turned to look at Stephen.

And that dude already knew it was time to give me an answer.

"I indeed said these words before," I slowly nodded while controlling my chariot to fly towards the exit of this world.

I could easily have used my staff to jump back to the surface world and then back to the outside world. But I wanted to give Stephen more time to make up his mind.
