I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

“Don’t be a fool,” I had to hit him with the blunt edge of my glaive on the right shoulder, “even the deadly jumper couldn’t break free from them, even when he led a vicious army of monsters.”

“…!!!”

Using the name of the jumper scared them at last and brought them back to their senses.

Sigh! Why the hell didn’t they trust my words and when I brought up the jumper’s name they started to seriously consider things over?

Damn! Were they seeing the jumper as a stronger person than I? Screw them!

“But boss… The jumper… That dude is crazy…” Leo spoke in such disbelief. I recalled how badly the jumper treated this dude here at first, and that seemed to leave a dark spot in his heart and soul.

“I’m just telling you about what happened,” I shrugged, “if not for my timely arrival and immense help, that dude would have ended up losing too much, or even lost his life.”_.

“…!!!”

“I don’t want to see any of you missing next time,” I said in a serious tone, putting an end to this point, “so try to not feel too overconfident about your true abilities, don’t belittle your enemies, and always give justice to whoever is fighting you. And now…”

I closed up this page before pointing at the general map, “such arrangement of the enemy must be matched with a similar one from us. So, I’m going to assign only two armies to lead the frontline battle.”

“Only two?!” Hilary asked in doubt, “shouldn’t we add more? Stretching out two armies over such a big area is risky.”

“That’s needed,” I knew what she wanted to say, but we were forced to take such a route, “we have to assign these two to keep the enemy busy. As for the rest, they will scatter in the lands behind these two armies. If the Hectors didn’t come, they will move forward after assessing the entire situation.”

“What if the Hectors came?” Alex finally spoke, “will they leave the frontline alone?”

“We have eleven armies here,” I said, “three are out of the picture. The jumper’s army will keep the capital safe during this time. Mine and Angelica will stay away for any urgent situation. So we got eight armies ready…”

I started to explain the general situation in much detail to them, “two will handle the frontline enemies, while the other six will be arranged in three main groups…”

I moved my glaive around the map, pointing to six spots I selected before, “two armies will be close to the frontline, three will be close to the capital, and the last one will be stationed in between the two.”

“This…” Sara wanted to say something, but I stopped her with my eyes.

“The two near the frontline will be asked to go and support the frontal battle if things get heated up there. The three around the capital won’t move until Hector’s come.”

“What if they didn’t?” Leo asked.

“They won’t move then,” I gave my final order, “I won’t risk sending armies away from the capital. Our lands are very vast, and sending armies far will be tricky.”

“You seem quite sure about the alliance between that enemy of ours and the Hectors,” Hilary said, and I firmly nodded.

“If I were him, I won’t miss this chance at any cost,” I slowly said, moving out my eyes around each single one of them, “and his top priority shall be to lure away as many forces as he can, leaving the capital unguarded and vulnerable.”

“Hye is right,” the all silent Lily finally spoke out, “my race… They are strong and also cunning. We know where our good traits lie. We have tons of aquatic monsters. That seemingly large distance will be covered using their help in a matter of minutes!”

“This…” Hilary paused while Lily continued:

“Our most beloved way to win is by using an element of surprise and coming with everything we got at an unprepared enemy. Having such a flashy victory has a great taste for us.”

“Listen to the lady,” I stepped in, “she is one of them, and she is the best to say her opinion about this.”

I paused for an entire minute, giving them time to absorb what Lily said.

“Under no circumstance I’ll give the order to move a single troop of these three armies,” I stressed over this, giving them my word for that, “as for the last one, he will remain alert, waiting for my notice to move wherever I’ll point.”

“What about that bastard?” Hilary rolled her eyes, “that jumper? You left him out of this entire plan.”

“He will play a different role,” I got something itchy about the northern borders of my kingdom.

That enemy moved his forces to line up in such a way, attracting the attention of most of our forces stationed in the mainland, mostly at the central part of my kingdom.

But when I went to help that jumper, the size of the forces there… The preparations that the bastard had were getting on my nerves actually.

The jumper just moved north out of the blue in the enemy’s eyes. Despite that, the enemy was able to summon such a large and fierce army to hit the jumper badly.

And on top of that, the enemy had time and abilities to lay out a deadly trap there at the big lakes there.

This… This all pointed out to one simple fact; that the enemy had strong forces in the north.

When I looked at the big map on top of my chariot after explaining the plan, I got an inspiration.

All of my forces were stretched deep and away from the north. If an army came from the north, from where Canada was before the apocalypse, and another army came from the Hector continent from the ocean side… Just imagine that!

Things would turn ugly for sure! My capital would be cornered from two directions, with enough forces to overrun any defences there.
