I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

[The one that happened many hours ago? Ah I forgot about that time difference. Ok, send them then. We are expecting a huge monster outbreak soon anyway]

[Why huge?]

[Because someone scared the sh*t out of them and made the monster outbreak end early. So they are gathering up and will come in larger forces this time]

[I see] it wasn't my fault! "Listen up, we are going towards a huge fighting place. You'll lead forces there. Prove yourselves and you'll get what I promised."

I then turned to Alex and decided to take her with me.

"What is this place?" as we got on my chariot, she managed to see a grander scene of this world.

Mountains, paths with cities and towns at the far reach of our eyes, an ocean, and an ocean of forces fighting at the horizon… This was what she saw and I kept my silence for a few minutes while leading my chariot in the front at slow speed.

"It's my world," I said, "it has an awesome feature of time difference from Earth. Here twenty hours will equal one on Earth."

"This…"

"Don't take my world wrong, it has forests, lots of nice places to see and visit. Yet this is my training camp, the place where my armies are born."

"..."

She remained silent, not out of shock and surprise, but out of self blaming.

Yes, she got that face of someone regretting not being part of all this. She realised now part of what she missed, helping out my people and hers to live in such peace and prosperity.

I didn't go directly towards the shores, instead I took the soldiers and her in a detour, passing through a few towns and cities, making them see how nice people were living here.

"You brought different races as well?" she noticed this and I smiled and let her watch further, "and this… Isn't there an apocalypse going on here?"

She finally got it! "No, this world… It's just like our Earth before the time of the apocalypse."

"This…"

"And the apocalypse won't hit it here."

"..."

She didn't need to question my words. I said these in such firm and confidence, making her believe me no matter how hard it was to do so, no matter how unrealistic such words were.

But I wasn't lying. Apocalypse wouldn't hit here thanks to the special nature of my world. Besides, would these higher ups dare to find a way to bring an apocalypse here?

Humph! I would go all out and use all my might to crush everything and control the other worlds and races taking part if this ever happened.

No, they weren't this crazy. Doing this was pointless. So I said those words with deep belief in what I said.

"This…" seeing the grand battlefield from far was something, and inspecting it from such close distance was another.

Her widened eyes told me she got what I wanted, she got how humans were fighting for their survival while she was staying back, far behind, enjoying peace brought over by others.

Don't take her wrong, she wasn't the type to enjoy such life, not like that jerk. She risked her life and even accepted death once before when there was no one by her side, where there was no hope.

Such a fierce soul wouldn't succumb to rest or peace when others were suffering for her. I saw her body trembling, making me nod in satisfaction.

"Wait here and someone will come to deploy you," I shouted at my soldiers, before turning to Alex and faking not knowing what she was thinking about, "let's go. I'll drop you off at one of the safe and rare cities here."

I said the word peace on purpose, trying to stir her up. She looked at me and seemingly what I said made her aroused back to reality.

"No!"

"No… What?!" I faked my surprise and lack of understanding.

"I won't go there, drop me here, let me fight with all of them."

"This…" I feigned how difficult and sudden this was.

"I can't sit back when others are fighting like this! I know I got demoted, so let me lead fresh forces, just like other soldiers."

She pointed back at the ground where my ten thousand soldiers were dispersing under the guidance of those sent by Lily.

[There is another general who needs an army with me. But take good care of her, she was away from this for a long time]

And without saying anything back to Alex, I opened the chat window with Lily and sent these words, letting Alex listen to what I said from the side.

"This… But…" Alex's eyes trembled when she heard my words. As for Lily, she was happy to get a new general without doubt.

[Great! Send her over, I'm at the north of where you are]

[Good]

I then closed the chat with her and opened my inventory. There I kept a few of my chariots stored for times like these.

"Take this," I took the chariot out and let it appear next to mine, "it's yours from now on."

"This… Sign! How long did I stay away from you?" and as she knew there was no point in dissuading me, she sighed and shook her head, releasing more about what she lost while staying with that jerk.

"Go, and don't make me regret it."

"I… Won't," she said in such a way that told me she already made up her mind.

She would fight alongside us, alongside humans, fight for our survival and prosperity, the way she should have been doing for a long time if not for that jerk.

I delivered her to the chariot and watched her pick up a group of a hundred soldiers from down below. It seemed she knew their abilities and got to know who deserved an instant promotion.

I didn't step in or prevent her. If she needed them all, she could have them without doubt.
