I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

This item was by far the most important one in my entire channel! It was the one that allowed me to add people under the umbrella of my channel.

Without it, I would be only one man playing around. My channel wouldn't deserve watching, not to mention subscribing.

Well, that was my main aim from the start. Collecting talented humans and forming a cohesive group with them. This way when this moment came, I had a clear advantage over others.

After all I wouldn't be the only one treading on this path, the path of hegemony.

[Chanel specific recruitment reel: silver grade. Allows the owner of a channel to recruit up to ten people. The invitations sent can't be repaid once rejected. Price: five million coins]

I read the simple description as I bought two of them. I already had my team, including the succubus.

But having recruits in the channel didn't stop at just making the channel more eye-catchy and alluring to the audience.

By becoming part of the channel, the channel would instantly create separate videos allocated to the members if they were apart.

What did that mean? I could easily monitor their achievements and performances, and interfere if things went south without the need to speak with them.

As I had a contract already with Angelica. So I opened my profile and found a small icon of contact there. Her name, plus the name of jumper, were situated alongside Rachel.

[I'll send an invitation for your side. Make sure everyone accepts it] I sent it to Angelica before sending another message to notify Rachel.

Although she wasn't practically in my world yet, she was fighting in a world merging with us under the same circumstances. As we cleared quest one and were waiting for quest two, she also must have been in the same situation.

To use this reel was very simple. I recalled the names of the people in my team and wrote them inside the reels. Also I specified their current location; New York-Central park.

[Send me the names of your team members] I realized that I knew no one in Angelica's team. In the next minute I received the list of names. This girl was so meticulous to send me the full names of them.

[Congratulations! Angelica human race has accepted your invitation]

[Congratulations! Rachel succubus race has accepted your invitation]

[Congratulations!...]

Long rows of messages kept coming and that meant I finished establishing everything for now. Of course I wouldn't be able to log in and watch their performances until I started the channel.

But it wasn't time yet.

[Ding! The items in the auction have been sold. The coins are in your balance]

I got another message and hurriedly checked. I now had slightly over seventy million coins.

"Time to get that item then," I opened the auction interface and found the item had less than five minutes to be sold. The current price was fifty-five million coins. What an extravagant price.

"A bunch of rich kids playing with the auction like it was a game! Humph! Let's see how they'll feel bitter now."

Without any hesitation I chose to pay the buyout price of the item. Sixty-five million coins were deducted and instantly I felt poor again.

"This…" the jumper couldn't ignore the item I took out from my inventory. This was something amazing indeed.

"By the way," I turned to him before adding, "what's your name?"

I tried to check his name on the contract we had before; only jumpers! How could someone have the name of his ability? Something looked fishy here.

"It's a jumper," he shrugged, "you can call me that."

"I know, that's the name you used in the contract. But how come you have such a name?"

"Do you think you are the only one who established his brand? Jumper is the name of my brand, equivalent to my real name and acknowledged by the system."

"What the hell…?!!" I was taken aback when I heard this. "Weren't you the one who said I was a clown for doing this? Are you a clown as well?"

"Do you want to die?" he shouted in rage and gave me his typical answer before scoffing and adding in arrogance, "I just created a brand name for myself. It's way different than being a clown like in your case! I still can't believe you! Why would someone like yourself do such a thing?"

I was already holding the item I paid so much for in my hand while walking towards the big statue. Carefully I placed the item just below the big belly of the horse, directly in the center of everything I created so far.

*Woosh!* *Woosh!* *Woosh!*

Just before I even turned or said anything, three angels appeared with sinister smiles on their faces.

It was time for them to show up! They took their time and got delayed for almost ten minutes. I couldn't complain, after all I needed that little extra time for my preparations.

As for their delay, I knew the core reason for this. It was all on my shoulders. I made them pay a hefty price for blessing points, not only once but twice actually.

The second time might have come from other angels, not just them. So they were low at the blessing points. Not only them, almost every angel in the perimeter of New York city was having the same issue.

So they must have gone overboard in an attempt to stop me.

"Well well well… I can't believe you actually threw yourself like a pig in a frying pan like this," the central angel said in a cheerful tone before he lightly laughed. "I can't wait to see the look on your face before dying."

"You…" the jumper instantly got riled up and he even took out a large halberd and a long spear. I looked at him and couldn't help but smile.

An enemy of my enemy was my friend after all.

"I won't give you that satisfaction, I can promise you that," I said in a light tone in response while leisurely walking towards the jumper. I stood by his side and issued a look towards him; it wasn't time for battle yet.

"Yeah, I can see that," the central angel burst out in a loud laughter this time, "what will you fight us with? Few sticks? A white grade item? Or wait… You are going to fight with that channel of yours? Hahaha, a human, a pathetic human turning himself into a clown, hahaha."

"Told you it was a bad idea," the jumper gritted his teeth. Unlike what he showed to me earlier, the moment the three angels appeared he couldn't control himself.

He wasn't that cool headed after all. He needed to learn to be calm in front of disaster. He should learn from me, learn from the master.

"Are you sure of your win this time?" I showed a faint smile over my face while folding my arms in front of my chest. I acted arrogant and confident, and I wasn't bluffing.

"Let me tell you this, we all paid for your death!" the central angel ruthlessly said before adding, "not only the three of us, not only those angels in the city… everyone in this continent paid a hefty price to see your head rolling. Two waves of our interstellar cannon attack plus three gigantic monster herds. Tell me, are you terrified now? Do you want to go and cry to your mammy, little human?"

His tone was full of ridicule and even the jumper next to me had his body tremble as he couldn't tolerate hearing more.

"Alright, let me show you what power a clown can have," I said these words while opening my profile interface. I wasn't looking at the angels at all, but at the jumper next to me as if the angels weren't even there.

"Activate the channel…" I even shouted out loud what I was doing, "make it all free."

"F… Free?" The jumper was shocked when he heard my words. "I heard even the lousiest channels had a subscription fee of a hundred coins! Are you going for a loss already?"

Loss? C'mon, don't be this simple minded and short sighted person. That wasn't a loss, it was called a far sighted investment.

"Accept the invitation," I calmly sent an invitation for the jumper and his face showed a tinge of hesitation before he accepted it.

"What a pathetic channel without a single subscriber can do?" the central angel snorted while his tone was still filled with confidence and ridicule.

"You'll see," I simply said before finally taking something out of my inventory.

"This…" the moment I took it out, the face of all the smiles of the three angels changed at once. They recognized this the moment I took it.

"Activate the universal broadcast!" Without any speck of hesitation I initiated this item.

[You are the owner of a channel promo reel. Do you want to record a video and publicize it all over the universe? Or do you want to go with a verbal message only?]

"Recording a video," indeed that was the best course of action here. The next instant the small horn in my hand broke free and shone in bright golden light.

It kept itself in midair while floating around like a portable camera.

[You can start the video now]

"Welcome to my Fate Breaker channel. Today is the first day of the channel. I'm Hye, the owner and the leader of a group of highly talented humans from Earth. In celebration of our start, I'm pleased to say that the subscription fee is free. You can join and watch the amazing fight that's going to be initiated in a few minutes."

I turned around and the horn in the air followed me around. It stood in an angle that showed the three angels before.

"As you can see, I have the angels challenging me here for having a class. They promised to use the interstellar mighty cannon twice, can you believe that? Two times that brutal and deadly cannon will be unleashed over me shortly. But don't fret, I promise to shatter the attacks and emerge with my life intact. As for the other attacks they promised…"

I turned again and made them vanish from the video while showing the face of the jumper. I could feel his displeasure but he had no time to run away now.

"I and my friend here, a jumper, are going to face another deadly three waves of gigantic hers of monsters alone! Can you believe that? Two humans against two deadly interstellar cannons and three waves of mighty monsters… But we will prevail."

I took a deep breath, returned to my initial spot as I raised my fist in the air, "Join my channel now for free and enjoy this amazing fight. I promise you, you won't find any interesting battles anywhere else, and you will be greatly satisfied."

I closed my eyes and thought about ending the recording. The horn shone brighter as it shook before it shot like a rocket towards the sky then vanished.

"What was that for? Huh?" The jumper was still annoyed by what I did. I could see why he was acting like that. After all, he believed what I did was nothing but being a clown.

But he was gravely mistaken! That tool… That channel… Being a celebrity was never meant to be a clown! It was much more than that. And I would show him just the tip of the iceberg about these unforeseen benefits now.

[Congratulations! An anonymous god has subscribed to your channel!]

[Congratulations! An anonymous god has subscribed to your channel!]

[Congratulations! An anonymous god …]

Instantly after the vanishing of the broadcast reel, rows upon rows of messages started to rain over my head like an endless flood. I cracked a smile while looking at the angels.

"I'll show you now the real power of the channel," I pointed my raised fist towards the three angels in front of me before adding in a firm and defying tone, "can you tell me again what you prepared for me? I have a short time memory and want to hear these threats again."

The faces of the three angels became dark and unsightly. It seemed they already were notified by the rapidly increasing number of my subscribers.

"Esteemed humans, we are just mere guides dedicated to aid you in your sacred mission."

"What the hell is that?!!!" next to me, the eyes of the jumper popped out of his face as he couldn't believe what he heard.

Against their sudden and earthshattering change of attitude, I only grinned and simply explained things in little words to him.

"It's fame bud, fame can do miracles!"

Yeah, that was one of the mightiest weapons of being a celebrity with a channel.. I became famous, and now my fame would become one of my deadliest weapons and sturdiest shields.
