I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

If she was another lord, I wouldn't get annoyed by that. But she was strong, and she stayed here much longer than I did.

Her land was already much higher than mine. Tsk! Just thinking about all this and the limited time I got here made me unable to do anything to her.

"If time wasn't flowing in my world, then how come I could bring troops over?" I pondered about this issue while returning back to my army.

"This… I got a headache again just by thinking about this…" I rubbed my forehead in a tired way, "fine. I'll put these weird universe rules aside for now. At least I got tons of new info, things I never knew about…"

I recalled the weird talk with Berry and couldn't help but focus over the things I understood rather than burdening my mind with things that were too complicated to grasp.

I got to control my universe, but it was an impossible feat. I got first to control my world, then my apocalypse trial, and try to not lose my life while doing all this.

For me, I liked challenges, they were indeed refreshing and able to drive me to higher greatness. However, thinking about such an impossible goal wasn't helping at all.

So I pushed it aside as well, and focused only on the information regarding this universe and the other cosmos.

"So what was happening back in my universe and cosmos happened as well as other cosmos? That means these enemies aren't just a fluke, or an error in the system. Are they part of an organisation? If so, what're their goals?"

Lots of logical questions started to pile up in my mind fast. Just by the time I returned to the army, I could feel another headache.

"Dammit Berry! What are you? A headache maker or what?!"

I never felt like this before, not even when I dealt with the old man when I took him for a madman.

"Is everything alright?"

Seeing me arrive at the army but stopped at the forefront and standing idly as if I was pondering something, Lordan couldn't help but jump over my chariot and ask in concern.

"It's… Nothing," I shook my head as I jolted awake from my deep contemplation. How in the world was I supposed to explain something I didn't fully or even partially grasp?

"Prepare yourselves," I moved my eyes in between the two, "we are going to invade other lords' lands."

"Now?!!" she looked at me as if I'd gone crazy.

I wanted to explain, give reasons, but girl… Don't force my hands here, please. I had to do it even if I didn't get everything about this.

I thought about asking her for that absence period and such, but I didn't. Just recalling this made the headache come again.

Damn! Why was that headache focusing on me out of late?

"I'll abide by your orders," Lucas was indeed more accepting of my order, and even spoke in a cheerful tone.

"What are you happy for? We just finished lots of battles and we need to rest!" even Lordan noticed his cheerful tone and frowned.

Seeing her like this made me recall what I learnt from Berry. I got to understand why lords here were acting this lazy and accepting their current calm life without the urge to do anything major.

"Just prepare the armies," I waved my hand, "we'll first return back to the homebase land, then you'll go to invade other lands."

"Are we going for that lord? The one who sent out the messenger?" Lucas asked, and I got his meaning.

"No, don't be crazy and do it!" and as Lucas spoke, Lordan's body trembled faintly out of fear, "didn't you reach a good conclusion with that weird dude?"

She was referring to the messenger. If she knew this weird dude was actually Berry herself, how would she react?

For a moment there, I considered telling her just out of pure fun. Yet when seeing how her body kept trembling, I had to drop the idea.

I didn't want her to end up having a mental trauma or something. I hated these mental issues the most, they were hard to deal with.

"We are considered allies for now," I pondered for a moment, "so we don't need to move anything in the north. Let's spread over the south."

From the simple understanding of the general direction of Berry's land, I could ascertain that she was active in the north.

To prevent unneeded friction between the two of us, it was better to move my forces directly towards the south. Like this we'd never meet each other at any battlefield.

"Fine," Loran heaved a sigh of relief, "I'll go and prepare the army to move."

"I'll also leave."

I watched the two leave before turning my gaze down. For a moment there the idea of going down there and talking with Hilary crossed my mind.

But I didn't do it.

It was better to leave her to rest and give me time to think about how to deal with her.

Just the sudden and intense change that happened to her once she spotted the seat made me sure of my previous doubts.

Even if she acted this nice to me, she wasn't my Hilary. She was still working for the agenda of those demons, and no one knew what she was up to.

As she was here, it was better to leave her confined for now. I didn't know what changes happened to gain her such brutal strength to shake my chariot.

But after that incident, she returned to remain calm and conceited, not causing a single sound.

Well, from what happened I could tell there was a huge problem with her and she knew it. So it wasn't wise for her to seek me out or meet me right now.

If I pushed, she might even revolt and things would go out of hand.

Patience… I kept telling myself that while flying fast, heading towards my land.
