I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

As I got little time, I started to take half of the crystals I got at one go. I also got half of the green, blue, and silver bones out, leaving the rest for my future deals and my personal use.

All of sudden, almost half of the area covered up by my pillar’s shield got packed with bones in different colours and crystals.

As I thought the statue would take forever to consume them, all of them suddenly shone brightly before turning fast into ash.

This… This was a scene I never expected or even imagined!

“Damn fierce! Do you still need more?” I looked at the statue that appeared from the storm of ash that appeared from all the bones and crystals.

“No thanks!” and just as I was speaking to it out of my surprise, I got an instant shock when I heard such angelic voice, “I don’t know how long it has been since I had such a meal. Thanks for the generosity of my lord. I have enough energy to form three worlds here, or do you want just one right now?”

I looked at as the voice appeared from the statue, I noticed that the eyes that were looking at a fixed point moved and were looking at me.

Damn! What the heck was this sorcery?!!

“Well… Can you merge the three and form a faster growing one?” I asked, but she shook her head, making me realise this wasn’t a statue, it was a real being cursed to look like a statue.

Damn! Don’t tell me she belonged to an ancient race as well!!!

“Sorry lord, I can’t do it. I know you like being called a lord. I watched you from behind, seeing all the deeds you did. And remarkably enough, you are worthy to be my lord, even if you are just a mere human.”

“Thanks, I’ll take it as a compliment,” I sighed, as this was indeed not such one.

“But there is still one thing missing… Give it to me and I’ll start forming the world.”

“This…” of course I knew what she was talking about. Reluctantly I took out my last kingdom’s heart and handed it to her.

Her hands didn’t move, but the kingdom heart moved and I followed it with such bitter feelings.

“Don’t feel this sad… After all, this world will belong to you.”

“Stop telling me lies to make me feel better. I hate it when people do such a thing,” I sighed, took a deep breath, “this world… It was built on top of a deadly and scary weapon. I have to take the weapon down, and with it the world will lose its core and will crumble and collapse down.”

“No, lord is mistaken here,” yet she didn’t feel any offence from what I said, and calmly said while the kingdom heart touched the torch, turning it into real fire that engulfed this torch, “I can’t merge the three worlds into one to accelerate the process, but I can do something else.”

“What?” I looked at her with anticipation. Well, a mature and wise girl appeared from the inside of a cold and still statue… So I could expect anything out of her.

“I’ll change that core for you,” she suddenly said, “I will add this heart not as the core of this little dome of yours, but to this entire world. So when you take down that nasty core, your kingdom heart will kick in, and turn this small world into a growing mighty one, one that will keep expanding as long as you take good care of it.”

“This…” my mind froze for a second when I heard what she said, “will this be safe? I don’t want any remnants of that nasty weapon.”

“Don’t worry lord, in my time, my race was called the world creators. We were considered mothers who can give birth to new worlds, worlds that can grow and expand. But that was a long time ago, and it’s just a blessing that I can use my real powers again, thanks to my lord’s generosity with energy.”

“…”

Ok… Ok… What the heck was wrong with me? Everytime I gained a race, it would turn out to be cursed in a way or another.

“I’m going to work now. For six months, don’t try to remove me. No one can remove me except you, even those mighty gods won’t be able to make me budge an inch. Good luck lord, and keep fighting for yourself and your people, keep fighting for all the good in this universe, the good that went missing amidst all this chaos and pain.”

And by her words, her body started to suddenly grow in size. For a moment there I swore I saw the big stain of blood I left behind got separated, coagulated into a small ball of red blood, before she moved her left hand and let the orb there absorb it!

This happened in a blink of an eye, making me question myself if that really happened or not.

She grew up, grew up so damn fast. It was like a seed grew up from the ground using magic, grew tall and towering to reach the peak of my dome.

Then like a bomb, she release her shining pure white light all over the place. It wasn’t limited only to my dome, it went way beyond, vanishing behind the horizon.

For a second there, I got to see everything that the pulse wave of light touched. Hundreds of millions of different races were coming at me, with much more staying behind inside towns and cities.

They had families, had kids, lived their lives the same as my universe’s races did. I saw a glimpse of the look on their faces… And it wasn’t any different from the look of horror anyone in my race would show at such desperate times.

As I expected, they mistook me for something scary, someone that was considered as their eternal foe and deadly sworn enemy.
