I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse



"Listen up," and before that jerk would say any of his nonsense, I turned my attention towards the generals, "you got a single chance now to leave the side of this incompetent fool and join my side. I'm not going to lie, I got lots of generals on my side. But as I'm going to win this war, win this world, I need more on my side. And I know from my past dealing with folks like you how capable and worthy you are."

"This…" Right now that jerk called Hulk finally started to get the harsh and brutal reality from my words.

"Shut the hell up!" I roared again, and this time my words left a heavy impression behind, silencing that jerk for a long time.

"I'm here to give you the chance to join me, and it's a one time offer. I'm going to leave this place now and go to invade the rest of the world. And it's up to you to either remain here and fall with such a loser, or live and follow me to crush this world together. So, what do you say?"

I crossed my arms, waited for their answers. I knew they might take time to discuss, or even be impulsive to refuse. However I never expected to see the result that happened next.

"What does lord want from us now?" one said, and the rest simply nodded, announcing their agreement on what this dude here said.

What the heck was this?! And for a second there, I recalled how Toramos acted back then, how other Hescos paragons and generals did when I offered them to join me.

They didn't even hesitate, didn't take any time at all to think, and just jumped off the ship of the Hescos and joined mine.

Even if the Hescos' ship was majestic and grand, it was filled with depressive auras and a losing atmosphere. Even if my ship was still a wooden raft, it was filled with chances for success, opportunities to shine.

I never expected that my casual offer that popped into my mind would be embraced by everyone here. And soon enough, even the paragons asked about what they should do.

"You… You… All of you…" and just seeing such a heaven defying turn of events made that jerk tremble, "you are all traitors! You are all going to get captured and tortured by my leaders! Who do you think you are betraying? We are the Hescos!"

"F*ck Hescos!" it wasn't me who said such words, but one of the generals, "what's the use in living in a mighty race when we are all treated like a bunch of disposable sh*t! Screw you! Screw Hescos! I already got enough from all this. Screw everything, I'm joining this human better than staying in this damn and cursed place!"

"Yes, me too!"

"I also will do the same!"

"F*ck Hescos!"

"That race is a bullshit place, filled with arrogant bastards and losers like yourself!"

"Who gave you the right to lead us? I'm much better than you, lots of better than a thousand of you!"

"Why didn't they select me? I was able to unify my entire world in the shortest period of time in our history! And yet they sent me here, to serve such a fool and jerk!"

"It's because he is one of the royals! He is the son of someone who matters, and that's enough to make him our boss! F*ck you, boss! I'm leaving and joining this humble man instead. At least he proved his strength and abilities to me."

"Yes! This man sole handedly fought and conquered our people and tons of races alone! He didn't come from any background, even his race is known to be slaves! And yet here he is, fighting and crushing everything and everyone in his path. He deserves to be my leader, not some jerk and spoiled brat who came from a famous family."

"I'm with you!"

"I'm also leaving!"

I heard tons of shouts, a shitload of curses and insults about the Hescos. I never expected these people held such deep resentment against their folks.

What a losing game these Hescos played! They got to the top, and seemed to mess everything out there.

Getting to the top was something admirable, but staying on such a stage was indeed much harder than getting oneself there.

I decided to take all this into my heart, learn from the Hescos grave mistakes so I wouldn't repeat these ones later on.

Yes, I was now envisioning myself sitting on a throne, one par with the strongest races in the universe, even being the strongest!

Why not? I got much more hunger than anyone else for victory. I was craving to win, to succeed and thrive. And I didn't lack anything to achieve any of that.

I just needed time, lots of preparations, and chances like this one here to recruit real talents and nourish them.

"Kill this jerk out for me," I simply announced what I wanted them to do. They said they wanted to join me, and they got to prove their loyalty by killing the most important figure out there in the enemy camp.

If they didn't do it, then they weren't honest even in the slightest at all in what they just said. And all this would be a plan from the Hescos, to plant spies in my circle or something.

"That's it?" and as if I asked something trivial for them to do, one of the paragons asked in doubt.

"And you'll sign a loyalty contract for sure," I added.

"That's it? Nothing else?!!"

"Aside from working diligently, leading armies, killing my enemies, then I don't need anything else," I rolled my eyes, "what did you expect? Giving me wealth? Asking you to do anything else for me? No, this is the way my kingdom works. Work hard, prove yourself and your abilities, and you'll be heavily rewarded and supported."
