I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

The Hescos wanted to try out their luck here? Cool! Let me then open their eyes on the shocking facts. This world… This little universe that was going to get merged with other worlds into one colossal world… It was already in my grasp.

However I should play my cards quite right. And the first move was to secure myself from any of these Hescos in my team.

The last thing I'd want to see was for one of them to defect, join the enemy, and tell them everything about my current plans and strength.

I was in a very solid situation, standing on firm ground, but that didn't mean I shouldn't be a bit wary and cautious. I might have the advantage, but who knew what this war would bring to me.

To take down a mountain, one could use many explosives and deadly bombs to do that, or a weak stream of water could take away the mountain for a very long time.

All it needed for a huge building to fall down was to lose bits of its foundation piece by piece. And so I'd have to safeguard against such a thing, protect my own stuff.

[I'm coming to understand what's going on!] Lily knew that something big just happened. And she decided to come and listen to what I had to say.

[Ok. Don't forget to bring those Hescos with you]

[I'm already bringing Toramos. As for the rest, they are scattered among many places. They'll need more time to arrive]

[Great!]

I knew everyone got the message of the system about the merge. And so it was expected for everyone to be quite busy dealing with such chaos.

As I got to wait for Lily to arrive with Toramos here, I started to work over the bombs others brought over.

The two took one hour to arrive. During which, I defused hundreds of bombs. And yet there were still hundreds more waiting.

There was more than enough time for me to defuse all of them before the merge would finally be over.

"What happened? And don't give me a half assed answer! I want to know everything!"

The moment the two appeared, Lily started to speak in such a rushed and impatient tone. She must have realised bits and pieces of what I intended to do.

I asked for specific race members to be brought here to me. And out of all the races we got here, I came asking for the Hescos specifically.

Hescos and us had a long war and deep feud back at Earth. But since coming here, not a single one of them acted out of their place. And I never showed any sign of being hostile towards any of them.

They were just tools to me, and Lily got that already. So when I showed signs of starting to grow hostile towards them, she was feeling puzzled.

"First of all…" I didn't directly answer her, instead I shifted my attention towards Toramos, "tell me, do you know why I called you here?"

For a reason, I felt like Toramos and others already got contacted by the Hescos higher ups. And by his slow nod, I confirmed my guess.

"Are you going to kill me? Kill us?" Toramos didn't need to speak about anything, and jumped directly towards what really mattered.

If I knew about what happened between him, his friends, and the Hescos higher ups, then it was easy to guess what I was going to do.

"What the heck are you two talking about? Can anyone explain things to me?!!" Lily from the side grew instantly restless. If she got puzzled before by my sudden switch in attitude, then right now she was feeling more shocked and petrified.

"Will you tell her, or do you want me to do it?" I tilted my head towards Toramos. And that dude looked quite collected, without any speck of worry or fear at all.

"I just want an answer.

"I'm going to lock all of you down."

"You didn't even ask about what we responded to our higher ups with!" At this moment, he raised one eyebrow, seemingly surprised by my swift and decisive answer.

"I don't need you to tell me anything," I shrugged, "you are part of a race, and I'm an outsider. It's easy to tell what side you'll select here."

"What if we selected you? After all, this is possible, right?"

"Yes, but that will make me always wonder if you are truly honest by joining me or you are here to keep an eye on me and my forces."

"Well said," he smiled, one that told me I didn't disappoint him or something.

"Can anyone tell me what is going on here?" Lily kept moving her head and eyes between me and Toramos. She didn't get a single thing from our talk, as we didn't say anything that would give her any information.

"So… Will you take the honour or shall I do it?"

"Before this, there is something I want to tell you about…" he paused, and from his silence I could guess what he wanted to say.

"They already started to flee? Quite fast runners!"

"Don't blame them, they thought you won't know before it's too late. And they feared you."

"They should have come or waited just like yourself," I sighed, "right now they forced my hand to go for their blood."

"At least you won't aim for their heads!"

It was my time to feel surprised by what he said. "Why are you seeking a bit of relaxation?"

"Because I know you," he smiled, "you won't just get impulsive on us. Or else you'd have killed us a long time ago."

"Interesting," I smiled back, "then why didn't you leave with them?"

"I'm not in that threat, right?" Toramos laughed, for the first time ever since meeting this dude, "I did lots of things for you. And that means I've already proved my worth to you."

"That also goes for your men, right?"
