I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

Each world shone brightly and I didn't stand there to watch. I kept jumping from one world to another, until I returned again to the world I selected to go through it towards a new enemy's homeland.

"Aren't you going to do this trick here or what?" and as I opened a portal, passed through the portal to reach the frontline, the jumper drew closer and asked.

Everyone could tell I used the pillar to do such a thing. However, I haven't done it here yet.

"Why be impatient?" I had to activate the attack to get through the nasty shields protecting the portals.

But before that, I had to select a portal, store the closest point to that shield. Then I was ready to devastate that shield.

"Stay put, we are going through that damn shield!" and like before, I started to activate the offensive strike of my shields. And the world turned all bright.

I kept pumping against that portal's shield until it crashed down and then my chariot moved through. Like before, the new shield came and crashed against my chariot's, and then the battle between the shields started again.

After half an hour, I finally managed to pass through. I didn't know if it was thanks to my early experience, or the fierceness of the attacks of my shields back there that crashed over the shields of the enemy, I managed to pass through much easier and a bit faster.

I prepared myself for a hellish fight and a deadly trap. However when I passed through, I found myself flying on top of a normal land.

There was nothing weird here. The sky was brightly lit with a group of seven stars looking like my Earth's sun. The land was flat, with few hills here and there.

If I wanted to say there was something weird about here then it'd be the weirdly high temperature!

The seven suns were close to the ground, each was ten times the size of my Earth's sun before the apocalypse hit us.

The ground didn't have a single plant there. In fact, the ground looked all black, with pillars of smoke rising and dancing in the air, giving a weird sight of something similar to a scorching land.

It felt like a big fire erupted here not long ago. "What's with this world?" Isac was the first to speak up.

"I feel like this world isn't suitable for any creature or race to live in," Legend added, and I couldn't help but inwardly sigh.

"Don't think this way," I slowly said, "we came here towards a world of the enemy. No matter how bad and impossible the circumstances here looked, the enemy is here. And we got to find him."

"No one can sustain such temperature," the jumper pointed towards the shield of my chariot, "even your shield is getting burnt, rising bellows of smoke."

He wasn't lying! The moment my chariot appeared here, the shield of my chariot showed a fierce reaction as if it was a block of ice thrown in the depths of a great fire.

I could hear loud and clear the sizzling noises coming from my shield. At the same time, the energy essence stored inside my chariot's heart got consumed as well.

The rate wasn't high, but it was evident that the temperature outside wasn't life friendly at all.

"Then where are they?" Alex spoke up in one of the rare moments of this girl. She always kept her silence and side alone from any of us.

Since what happened with her boy, she seemed to change, more towards being more depressed and far silent than before.

"Let's search," I wouldn't risk getting them out on their chariots, exploring the world. I used my chariot, and started to fly around.

I kept flying for days, moving my chariot at its highest speed. At first, I thought the world here was going to be a hellish world at day, and a very cold one at night. However there was no night! It was all bright all the days we remained here. And the seven suns kept shining brightly nonstop all day long!

"This isn't a world one can live in!" Isabella muttered, while other generals around had gloomy faces.

During all this time, there wasn't a single vegetation on the ground at all! There wasn't a single carcass or a leftover of any monster or race, not a single evidence that this world got any living creatures here.

And yet I never doubted my beliefs. This was one of the enemy homebase worlds, and they were indeed living here.

"Let's explore the sky," I decided to go up, explore the vast sky that was void of any clouds.

We could see clearly for miles ahead and above us. And yet I went up there, enduring the fierce waves of heat that came fiercely the higher I ascended.

The thick bellows of white smoke rising up from my chariot's shield became much thicker and denser. And after flying for more days, we didn't see anything.

"There is nothing here," even the jumper gave up, "let's just return back. This is a dead end."

"Your target isn't here?" I asked, and he simply remained silent, a kind of silence that was equal to a confirmation.

"What target?" Sara asked. She was, like everyone else who dealt with that masked rude dude, was curious about his secrets and background.

Yet neither did he say anything, nor did I.

"Let's go down then," if there was nothing high up in the sky, nothing on the ground, then there was a single place that we didn't yet visit.

"Go down where?" Isac and others knew I didn't mean going back to the ground. We already visited there for days, and even after a week, we couldn't see anything new.

"Down there," I pointed towards the ground. During our exploration, there was something that kept bothering me.

The ground was all flat, like it got cleared and cleaned by some sort of force. The heat in this world was so overbearing to the extent of clearing the ground clean and flat.
