I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

"How will I push you to come out and show your ugly faces?" I stood on the back of my chariot, flying over the shore overlooking the lake, while pondering about this.

The lake was huge! And it seemed it was connected to other lakes as well. So trying to get in there and hunt these monsters down wasn't practical.

It wouldn't only make me lose time, but I wouldn't get much of them. With such a huge area submerged with water, I knew I'd have tons of blind spots for the monsters to hide at.

So, the better option was to drive these monsters out and let them come at me in hordes.

But how would I achieve such a thing? And should I do it here? Or cross it first and do it at the other side?

If I decided to fight here, the enemy would focus his ambush forces on me. I'd save the jumper the trouble of getting flanked. But that would also mean I would lose the help of him and his monsters.

If I went there and started the fight at Wisconsin, there might be a risk for a group of monsters to break free and go to attack his rear.

However I'd be there to help, and he would be there also to help me. After thinking about this for half an hour, I decided to cross the lake.

Also I got a way to drive these monsters out.

And that was by using me as a bait!

Monsters might look fierce and brutal, hard to understand. But they have few things in common, making them not that hard to read.

One of them was their crave for energy. They attacked humans and other races in an attempt to devour our body energy.

Even if they got the order to not move, stay hidden, this wouldn't stand against their nature.

I might get myself under great pressure out there, but using this way would lead to lots of benefits.

I wasn't only aiming at driving these monsters out to kill. I had another motive in doing so.

[Are you near?] I sent it to confirm the jumper's current location.

[I need at least four hours to get there, if things don't get any worse!]

[Still pouring races and monsters in your face?]

[They brought aerial monsters this time! I had to exert more effort to keep things under control]

"Flying monsters? That enemy must have sniffed my current location and read my intentions... Interesting."

Using flying monsters meant he got the help from a race. Hectors were experts at aquatic monsters.

There was no race who used flying monsters so far. But I knew of one that was famed for their large and grand armies of flying beasts.

Dragons!

They established their future fame in the later quests using flying monsters. So if this dude brought flying beasts over, he must have connections with the dragon race.

This wasn't a surprise. Dragons hated me. Besides, my boys spotted a myriad of races gathering at the tunnels, including the Dragons.

Anyway, I knew the army the jumper had was fierce on ground, weak fighting aquatic and aerial foes.

But they were led by the jumper! That dude amassed lots of treasures and deadly items during his past jumps.

As he didn't ask for my help, that meant he had a way to deal with such a threat. I was going to get myself busy fighting aquatic monsters here, so I didn't voice out my intention to help him if he ever needed to.

I closed the chat after warning him to not interrupt me for the next five hours until he'd reach here. Then I turned to look at the grand lake stretching in front of me.

It was time for me to make my move.

"Come forth!"

I first summoned my entire army.

Of course in terms of numbers, soulers held the upper hand. They were in hundreds of thousands as I kept receiving batches from the Bringold impact all the time.

Although they ate away a large amount of souls when they were inside my inventory, in times of war they consumed nothing.

They ate part of the souls they killed, so I loved sending them out to fight.

My only and biggest problem with them was the lack of a strong and mighty general. They were fierce, but I didn't find any outstanding talent in them yet.

Why was that? They were supposed to be a race. Any race would show differences in strength and talents.

How come, out of all these hundred of thousands of soulers, not a single one was unique? In my eyes, they all fought in the same way, like they were clones of the same person.

I had to think about this issue later on. Now I called forth even the Kraken army I summoned.

I had close to ten thousand Krakens at the moment. It wasn't enough, but at least they could help in killing the aquatic monsters here.

My dragons flew in the air with the flying monsters. I looked at my army and felt like it was missing a lot.

I needed more of everything! Depending on a single unit wasn't a good solution.

Soulers were beasts on ground, but in terms of water and air battles, they sucked! I had to start buying more of other warriors from the new petal impact to make up for the shortcomings of my personal army.

Enough with all these soulers, I needed Krakens and Dragons next.

I had a vision for my personal army, to be invincible on land, water, and air! I wanted it to be the source of fear towards my enemies.

If I managed to do it this way, then I wouldn't fear any fight!

"Get ready," I shouted at my boys once they were ready. I took out god essence and gave them to my fallen gods to consume. "Once the monsters appear, wait for a minute or two. Let them come forth first, gather up in large numbers before hitting them hard."
