I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

After I checked with my forces, I knew that the enemy already attacked and controlled Bloomfield and Irvington cities during this fight here.

Each one of them had an army of million attacking it. Damn! Even with all I did here, things didn’t look that good to me.

*Whoosh!*

I passed through the portal and appeared at Elizabeth city. The sight here was totally different from the city I just left.

The city was filled with destruction and ruins like any other city, but it was filled to the brim with human forces. During the past hours of my fight, my entire team came here, bringing all the entire human camps armies with them.

That made me feel more confident and proud of them.

The first thing I did was to summon my chariot. Its sudden presence in the middle of this city caused a big uproar all over the forces stretching outside the city.

[Come to me] I sent it to all my team members. Since our departure at Jersey city, this was the first time to gather again.

And this time we were having such a big fight waiting for us.

[I’ll lead my forces and come to join the fight] just while I was waiting for my team members to come, while watching many old forces who were familiar with me and my chariot doing their best to control the panicked forces here, Fang suddenly sent this message.

What the hell happened to make him move his fat ass from his precious mega gate?

[What’s the reason for you to come here?] as I didn’t know what was going on, I had to ask.

[Nothing, I just heard the news from what happened at Newark city. What? Don’t you want my help?]

Despite the fact that I needed him and his troops, I didn’t answer him directly.

[Hello… Just tell me which city you are at right now so I can come and join your forces and fight together]

Yes, something seems fishy without doubt. I totally ignored his messages while watching the familiar faces of my team.

The first to arrive was Karoline. The moment I saw her safe and sound I felt a little reassured. I was so worried about her and had to elongate the fight at Newark city to give her a chance to retreat.

“Are you ok?” I asked but the one to answer me wasn’t her but Angelica.

“Oh! You totally forgot about all of us while only caring about her! Humph! That’s not right!”

I had to give that sexy girl a diplomatic smile. Come on, you already had your own girl and was totally absorbed in flirting with her.

“Just leave him alone,” the spearhead climbed off the stairs, “a man shall pay more attention to his girl.”

Thanks dude for the support, I truly appreciate it here. Just as he arrived, I noticed Isabella climbing behind him with her hand clasped with that dude.

“You didn’t waste your chance this time… I see,” I said while winking to the spearhead whose face slightly changed and seemed a bit tense.

Dude, you had to feel the same struggle I experienced. After all, you didn’t show any mercy to me back then, remember?

“The two of you are just lucky,” Leo said while standing close to Angelica who was standing closer to Alex. as my team members got assembled by the ascension of Sara, I noticed one person was missing.

“Where is that talkative?” I asked while looking down the stairs, trying to see if he was coming up or something.

“The jumper you mean?” Isabella asked while taking a step away from the spearhead as she adjusted her glasses.

“Who else would be?” I snorted, “what? Is he asleep or something?”

“He isn’t here,” Angelica shrugged, while trying to place her arm around Alex’s shoulders but the latter shrugged her off.

“He didn’t come yet?” I raised one eyebrow in surprise.

“No, he came a long time ago,” Karoline said as she stayed half a metre away from me, as if she was feeling more secured this way, “but he decided to take the recon mission and went out with selected members of his forces.”

“Boss, I have something to complain about!” At this moment, and before I could grasp what that crazy dude just did, Leo suddenly raised his hand in the air.

“Dude, we aren’t at a school or something,” I rolled my eyes when I saw what he just did, “just say what you want. What?”

“That crazy one had a greater army than all of us here!” Leo said and the others nodded.

“This isn’t right! He took all the camps for himself!” Isabella said in complaint.

“I can’t believe he took all the forces in the training camps and added them into his forces,” Angelica said in a loud tone while her eyes shone brighter in rage, “I asked him and he said you agreed on that!”

“Is that true Boss?” the spearhead took a step forward and asked directly as if I was in an interrogation or something.

“Guys and girls… It’s not my fault you are short sighted and not ambitious like that dude,” I shrugged as if this wasn’t my fault. And it wasn’t.

“So if we asked to be treated equally?” Sara asked in aggressiveness while her tone was strangely calm. This girl was acting like a tigress waiting to be unleashed over anyone at any given moment.

Just a perfect match for Angelica! If I had a chance, I’d ship the two together.

“Why would I decline such a request?” I simply nodded, “It’s your fault to not think about the big picture and only limiting your actions to what you have and not what you can get. That dude once heard about the training camps at the same moment as you did, he constantly asked for his share of the prize. What about you? What did you all do? Nothing!”

I didn’t let this point drop easily. After all this was a good chance to educate them about how to not survive but thrive in the apocalypse.

Their previous attitude wasn’t bad, yet it wasn’t enough. I needed elites like jumpers, not just in strength but in their way of thinking.

They needed to learn how to become more aggressive towards any slight opportunity they met. Just like now, they were thinking all the wrong way about this issue.

Instead of blaming themselves for falling into such a mistake and learning from it, they took the easiest path and decided to throw all the blame on my shoulders.

Sorry folk… I wasn’t your sugar daddy and wouldn’t accept such wrong thinking. You needed to develop further to match the jumper and many others I was planning to add to my elite team.

Or in the near future, and in the span of a few months, my entire team roster would be changed and you wouldn’t have a place or right to speak a single word with me.

“Then I want an army like him!”

“Me too!”

“And me!”

Everyone spoke up and asked for their right to have the same treatment like the jumper. I looked at all of them speechless. Guys! Why did you think I gathered all of you around me and trained you up till now?

Wasn’t it to make you lead armies in such dire situations? Tsk, this situation was so disappointing that I didn’t say anything else to extend it.

I simply nodded in response before asking, trying to change the topic to something useful:

“How many humans do we have here?”

“This…” the look on their faces turned upside down as they all looked at each other and seemed puzzled.

“Don’t tell me you didn’t even count them! How the hell am I supposed to arrange troops now among all of you?”

This wasn’t the problem actually. I could just point in a direction and each one would take the people standing there.

But the main problem was that I didn’t know the real difference between my forces and the illusionist’s.

How was I supposed to consider my next move then without such vital information? Damn! I wasn’t surrounded with elites but a group of morons or what!

“Go,” I waved my hand in an angry way, “see how many we have here. You got one hour to do that.”

“But…”

“Just go!” I glared at Isabella who tried to give a lame excuse here. They failed, not only once but twice in a row. It was better to wipe such a depressing record with such an easy task.

“You stay,” as Karoline was about to follow them, I grabbed her arm gently and stopped her.

“Won’t you give me an army as well?” she gave me a weird glance before turning to look at others who were racing down my chariot. “They aren’t going to just count the forces. They will examine them and select the best of these humans for themselves.”

“Aha,” at this point I realised they weren’t just total fools as I expected. “Ok, go and be safe,” I said to her and before I let her go, I paid her sweet lips a short visit before letting her loose.

[Where the hell are you?] as I had an hour free of anything, I went downstairs planning to have a short nap before the upcoming battle.

[I’m just one mile away from Irvington] the jumper sent back. After all, before I’d sleep in a peaceful mind I had to check on that crazy dude.

I knew how impulsive and hot bloodied he was. [Just tell me you aren’t planning to attack the city by yourself!]

[Do you take me as a crazy person or what?] in fact dude you actually were such a person. I kept my thoughts to myself and simply sent back:

[How is the situation there?]

[They brought a grand army before taking over the city] I knew that already. Yet before I could let my body rest calmly over the mattress of the bed, the next message he sent jolted me awake and alerted all my senses.

[They scattered their forces in the wide area between this city and the other two nearby. Then they started doing something strange… They dug the ground and planted green shining balls there before covering the holes up]

[What did you say?] My eyes went wide open before I hurriedly asked, [Can you get one of those balls? Tell me you can!]

[I already got a lot of them] he sent back, [But lazy Hye, the system told me they are trash grade materials meant for nothing much… They only work as a medium to transfer energy, nothing more.]

[Fool!] I blatantly sent this insult to him and I meant it. Just reading what he just sent made all the hair over my body stand to no end.

[Watch your mouth, loser!]

[Where did ‘Do you want to die?’ signature phrase of you went?]

[Don’t try to be funny] he sent back before adding, [This will be my new phrase from now on; loser!]

[Ok, listen carefully loser] as he dared to say this to me, I also returned the mockery back to him, [these balls might seem useless and harmless at first. But if a certain number of them was used in certain way, the same way you just described to me, then they will turn into a deadly weapon]

[Don’t test my patience here! I hate jokes, especially the silly ones!]

[I’m not joking! It’s a real threat and will bring forth something we can’t handle]

[An enemy army? They already merged the five gates in the city and formed a grandiose gate in its centre. My guess is they did the same at the other two cities as well]

Damn! So that was the reason why Fang asked all of sudden to come and help me. That bastard! Did he turn into a greedy dragon in one day and night or what?

[Just tell me they didn’t start building a tower in the centre of this zone] I sent it to him while returning back to the roof of my chariot.
