I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

But no matter what, even if it was an entire ocean, I'd not flinch and burn it all.

I took out one of my purple dark realm bones. I never used such a thing before. But right now, and in front of such a threat coming at my chariot, I got to use everything I got, the best and cruellest thing I had.

I knew my bone would explode, taking away anything in its path, even my chariot.

But luckily for me, my chariot was already protected by the body of that damn beast. I got nothing to worry about, and the moment that beast would be dead, many things would happen at the same time.

First my shields would spring outwards, covering my chariot and protecting it from the fire.

At the same time, the chariot would get protected for a few seconds by its shield. I was sure the energy stored inside would be mostly depleted after this, but it was worth getting my chariot back.

My warriors were already fighting inside the shields of mine, so they got no risk at all. I took half an hour to activate this bone, while keeping the pressure over this weird monster using my pillar's shields.

My glaive proved its failure against such a monster, and only my pillar's shields could exert pressure over it.

So while waiting for my bone to get cooked enough, I had to keep this monster busy and not relieve it from my pressure.

"It's time!"

During all this, the monster tried to crush the shield over my little baby. It looked like a colossal duck sitting on its eggs, waiting for them to mature. But this duck here didn't want my chariot to ripen, but to burst into shreds.

I watched all its attempts without saying a single word. In return I kept focusing on activating my bone, until it was finally done.

*Rumble!*

I threw it like someone throwing a nuke, turned around and flashed back inside my shield.

I'd not dare to be far away from my chariot, had to be ready to step in the moment this motherf*cker died.

The world turned all bright in front of my eyes, and I had to wait until all of the light would fade to see, or perhaps that monster would die first and my shields would spread outwards.

And if anything wrong happened, I was close by, activating a new bone and making it ready to detonate if I ever needed to.

I knew that by releasing such a high grade bone and letting it detonate, it'd take a long time. But on the other hand, it'd cover lots of space, kill lots of the enemy forces.

Yet that didn't give me any source of happiness. I didn't see anything good in killing more enemies, not anything that could bring me joy in clearing lots of places around using this fire. All I was thinking about right now was my chariot, and only it.

I didn't even care about the brutal fight going on inside my shields. The enemy troops got trapped inside, with deadly fire standing on the outer door, an impregnable layer of shields that stopped them from getting out or in, and tons of my forces fighting and killing them without showing mercy.

I knew the enemy would suffer a lot, but I still wanted my chariot.

I didn't know that before, yet to me this chariot became like part of my family, part of my body. And right now I felt like I lost an arm or something.

I got to get my chariot back, no matter what!

I waited, ignoring everything in this world, even the constant messages coming from Lily about the current update of the war.

One day passed, and that damn jerk was still alive! F*ck it! Why wouldn't it just go and die?!

During all this, Lily kept informing me of all the updates of this war. The battles everywhere were quite ugly, and the enemy never stopped coming with more troops no matter what.

My forces tried to regroup, fight against the enemies, do everything they could, and still we lost too much. The enemy was already ushering their weapons in our faces like the entire world belonged to them.

And when everything pointed towards great losses, things changed!

One day passed, and with it, the announcement of the merge getting done finally arrived.

[Attention! The merge of all the worlds here is finished. Right now, the final battle for the golden quest will start. To check the list of rewards of the winners, please go to your profile page]

I didn't delay and checked, and there I found what I asked that higher up for.

"At least you got morale and kept your words to the end," I read the final list of the rewards for the top one place to make sure I didn't get screwed up or something at any point.

The final winner, the owner of the first place, would get not only tons of stat points, coins, gears, and other useless stuff for me, but he'd also get the ownership of the final world here, a one hundred years protection period, an access for the outer battlefield, a seat at the universe main council, and access to the central database of the system headquarter.

I didn't know what was the value of attending that universal council, nor the aim of that system higher up of giving me access to the outer battlefield.

However they all came as a single package, alongside tons of benefits. I looked at the access of the system database, and couldn't help but feel familiar and melancholic.

All this started by my grave and hunger for knowledge. I kept visiting and reading old records about what happened in the apocalypse, to my Earth and humans before and after the apocalypse.

Getting knowledge was something that ran deep into my blood. And getting such access again made me crave for the time I'd get such access to that place.
