I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

What made the two universes different? The alien universe has a higher concentration of energy. That made our people suffer when going there, but not the other way around.

So this pillar was doing what my universe lacked, condensing the energy into such deadly concentration, enough to affect and weaken them while giving me a boost.

But seeing them getting this weakened made me think about a way to help them.

“Thundering Might!”

I used my pillar again, and this time the effect was weirdly different.

The pillar of light that enveloped my chariot seemed to be aggressive against any other form of energy, as if it took it as a challenge to its authority or something.

So in front of my eyes, the two forces kept fighting back and forth, until my pillar formed a small world for the first time ever.

It was a bubble of almost half a mile radius with my chariot in the centre. But when it appeared, all the negative effects coming from this pillar vanished.

I watched my leaders get on their feet, while the look over their faces got a lot better.

“This is the most I can do for now,” I said while looking around. The bubble size was something that annoyed me.

Since when will my pillar act in such a weak way? This… This wasn’t the energy of my universe, couldn’t be. It was something that belonged to another universe, similar to ours, but different in essence.

Or else why would it antagonise my pillar’s energy in such a way? I looked around, with more vigilance while raising my guard up.

“Thanks lord, it’s ok,” Oliver said in a faint tone of gratitude, making me realise I was so close to breaking the ice between the two of us.

“Do you know where we should go?” even if I got this bubble, I still stood in the middle of this pillar of energy.

I didn’t know where to go. The world around us was all white.

“Down,” Oliver said in such decisiveness, “we should go down where that underground tunnel is.”

Well… At least there was a tunnel. I listened to his advice and started moving my chariot down.

The moment I did, I felt that the speed of my chariot decreased greatly, resisted by some mighty force, taking away most of its former speed.

This energy… It couldn’t belong to my universe, never!

Was there another universe running over the same system like mine? Using a similar form of energy?

I knew this energy came from my people, the ones who got into souls and lived a fake life up there. They were the fuel needed to form such a pillar. And that made me sure the essence of this place, the core of this energy, was something totally different from my universe.

I kept pushing my chariot against the energy pillar, going through the circle of magic at last after a few hours of struggle.

According to Oliver and others who were shocked when seeing this, this pillar should be pulling, not rejecting anyone trying to get through it.

They didn’t get it. Whatever lied deep under this circle was rejecting my coming. It felt my power and knew I was dangerous to it.

The magic circle looked as if it was made out of thin air. My chariot passed simply through it and started a long and tedious journey through the underground tunnel.

The tunnel was expanding the further we went down below. And the intensity of that white energy kept getting fiercer the more we delved deeper.

My chariot would hit the sides of this tunnel from time to time. I didn’t know how long this tunnel extended for, but it took us more than one day to get to the bottom.

And it consumed almost one fifth of my stored energy inside the chariot! Crazy, right? Even with the bubble, the hostile energy managed to enter inside, clashing against the shield of my chariot.

When I got to the bottom, it felt like I penetrated through a thick membrane before getting freed. The last stretch was really very hard, took alone five hours of continuous attempts with many failures.

“What is this place?” and just as the chariot passed through that pillar and got freed, I found a very vast place here. It was so huge, so damn huge to be called another world on its own.

But at least I could spot the edges of this world. It looked like it was on the size of the central zone, making me realise this pocket world was built on levels where each lower one would be in the size of the central zone of the above.

However… That wasn’t the main issue, that thing lying at the bottom in the centre of this place was.

“Is it… A giant with one eye?” Oliver narrowed his eyes as he pointed in the direction of that giant, looking like a small version of the pillar of light coming from a weird looking ball of light.

“What about the army down there? They look like a smaller version of that giant!”

Oliver got to notice that giant, and Lucias noticed the army. But none of them noticed the weird thing that lay just underneath the pillar of light.

It was a ball of light, looking like a big ball of white glass. But that wasn’t the issue. It lay just on top of a floating nest, made entirely out of weird looking bones.

Seeing these bones made me eager to go there and get them. Each single one looked special, and there were tons of them.

The next expanded over the ground for tens of metres before it vanished into the ground. Don’t tell me… This entire ground, this entire place, this entire vast world was made entirely from these bones.

Damn! Were these the bones of the ancestors of those other universe elite races? The ones who were fighting against my universe ten races back then?

Were all the sacrifices done so far gathered here? Was this… The weapon? I looked up at the pillar, and an idea flashed in my mind.
