I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

Before I could think about anything else, the light suddenly flashed as if it was slapping against my face. I closed my eyes fiercely before the next moment the scenery appeared slowly in front of my eyes.

I first felt my feet landing over something solid, then I saw a large stretch of land extending everywhere around me.

Whenever I read the word dungeon I always thought about an underground tunnel or a tiny path surrounded entirely by rocks, like a path inside a mountain.

But this one in front of me was different. It wasn’t a tunnel, it wasn’t underground.

I could see a clear sky with scattered hazy and fragile looking blue clouds. The sky wasn’t blue, but silver in colour. The light came from everywhere, without the presence of a sun or a group of suns here.

The ground wasn’t rocky, but filled with mud. In other times I’d consider bringing villagers here and start planting different types of crops.

Unlike how peaceful and good looking this world was, the presence of such big monsters around reminded me of the reality of this place.

It was a dungeon, or the test place of the dungeon at least.

But from their behaviour, it seemed they didn’t notice me. They kept moving idly around without aim, as if they were half awake half asleep.

[Welcome to the test grounds of Lost Rocker dungeon]

[You are going to fight until either dying or admitting defeat]

[Death here isn’t real]

[Time here is running on different speed than the world you came from]

[Your final score will be determined by the number of monsters killed and the number of gates cleared]

[Your current soul points are sealed]

[Your current stored soul list is sealed]

[Your current inventory special items are sealed]

[Your current coins are sealed]

[Your current blessing points are sealed]

[You have to start fighting in five minutes. Before this, you’ll be safe from the monsters]

[Good luck]

What the f*ck was that?!! My souls were sealed? coins , blessing points, and even my inventory of special items? Wait…

I hurriedly checked my inventory. My warriors were stored there. Just as I feared. The tokens of these warriors were considered special items.

[You can’t use any special item from your inventory] this message kept popping in front of my eyes as I tried to summon anything.

Even my chariot… Damn! Don’t tell me my glaives and grenades would be sealed!

*Fwoosh!*

Luckily my glaives weren’t sealed, but unfortunately my grenades were. Even the special weapons I got from the dragon archlord were also sealed.

Damn! This was unfair! How the hell was I supposed to fight here then?

“Think!” I slapped my face, trying to snap myself out of this shocking situation.

I had five minutes to prepare myself for this challenge. In the first couple minutes, I reread all the messages again.

“The system didn’t seal my class…” my eyes shone in such realisation. Yes, the class was there, but my previous achievement there was sealed.

What did that mean? It meant everything!

“So I can work again from this rock bottom situation, gather up my souls and summon my warriors? Interesting…”

I looked at the monsters and this time, I had no fear or doubt at all. In fact I started from the rock bottom at first, so it wasn’t any hard for me to restart this journey again.

Amassing soul points again? That wasn’t hard. Of course the first five thousand soul points would be the hardest, yet it wasn’t that impossible to get them.

But the soul list I had was sealed as well. That meant I couldn’t summon any of my terrifying warriors. I looked at these bull-like monsters with giant bodies that extended for almost five metres long and three metres in height.

They looked strong, mainly defensively thanks to their thick fur covering their bodies. They also got a few scales in the shape of rings around their bodies.

Black fur with golden yellow rings of scales… long two curved silver horns and one long tail that looked like an extra arm for them.

They looked strong in defence, but what about their offensive abilities? I didn’t trust these monsters to be strong, not even close to my weakest dragolves or shield warriors.

Anyway, this was my current situation. I held my heavy weight glaive, intending to use the crushing force of it to crush the armoured fur of these monsters.

The five minutes passed fast, and in no time a message came knocking on my face.

[Your five minutes protection time is over]

[You’ll start the test now]

[Kill all the monsters you can, and try to clear the paths behind any gate]

[Start now!]

With the last message, it felt like a bubble burst open in a muffled voice. Then as if I popped out of thin air to them, all the monsters lurking around stopped what they were doing, turned to me and looked in vigilance and hostility.

It was test time, and now I had to prove my worth.

Just thinking about this test for the rest of my teammates made me lose hope in gaining lots of points in this test. After all this test was really assessing individual strength and ability to thrive in such harsh situations.

It was like time rewinded back, back to when the apocalypse first landed. It wasn’t that bad for me, but for others… This might be quite challenging.

Compared to myself, the jumper and Hilary might be the only two able to create a miracle here. These two weren’t normal, and had their own tricks just like me.

But others… I couldn’t help but inwardly sigh, hoping my score would be high enough to balance the final score points.

“Roar!” “Roar!” “Roar!”

As if I didn’t notice them yet, they all roared at me, trying to scare me or something. The open area I was in was like a shallow valley in the middle of a big forest, all surrounded with trees.
