I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

I kept running my chariot for five minutes before I saw a silhouette running towards my direction with a crew of fifty others running behind. It was a giant Selvator, one with a pale golden coloured armour.

Pale gold ranked armour at such early stages of the apocalypse… that was enough to tell me that dude wasn’t just a simple Selvator.

“Greeting to the human race Hye,” before he came closer to a hundred metres, he stood in the middle of his men while adding, “I’m here to answer your call.”

“Come on board,” I said before adding, “alone.”

“This…” I heard a few loud exclamations coming from down below. In fact as I observed the team that followed him, I saw pieces of each race in them.

Even the dragons and succubi that I dealt heavy blows towards, they also sent few to attend this meeting.

“I give you my word,” I said before anyone else would say anything to complicate this situation, “come on board and you won’t be touched.”

“Don’t believe a human!” a dragon race shouted in insult, “he comes from a treacherous race that knows no honour!”

“My race is all but traitors,” I said before I threw a grenade to the Gollems and pointed towards one direction as I added, “if I wanted to kill you on the spot…”

*Rumble!* *Boom!* *Boom!*

The mere sounds of explosion that happened from the grenade was enough to turn the faces down below into ashen white. I crossed my arms, stood in my place for a few minutes while they had to run after my chariot to keep up with its speed.

“I won’t say it again,” I said, “if you want to negotiate then come alone on board and you won’t be touched.”

“Don’t go overboard!”

“If we wanted to kill you, we can!”

“This is just the face of a bastard acting like a king!”

“Enough!”

Just as many enraged shouts came even from the fighting lovers Berserkers, the Selvator in the lead shouted in a decisive voice. “I’ll come on board…” he paused while giving his last word to others, “alone.”

“I trust your honourable words,” I said, “come, you are warmly welcomed on board.”

As I said these words, I sent a message to my illusionists scattered down below. They spread the order to let only that Selvator to come inside while the soulers kept scanning the area, looking for any hidden illusionists or any hidden foes.

“Welcome to my chariot,” I said while keeping my chariot running in circles, while the monster kept roaring and chasing behind without showing any sign of threat.

“I have to admit,” the Selvator said, “this is really a remarkable war chariot. I saw many dragons on the walls, did they belong to dragons?”

“It’s mine,” I shrugged, “and now let’s not waste our time over such things. We need to find a way to kill this monster.”

The Selvator turned his eyes towards the giant Gollems and the giant ballista they operated. From the gleam in his eyes I could tell he was so much interested in my little baby.

“Nothing here is for sale,” I said blatantly.

“Ah, sorry but I always appreciate good and big war machines,” the tone he spoke with was filled with envy. He pointed at the rear monster without turning his back to me. Of course he was on his guard, so was I.

“What’s wrong with that monster?”

“Ask the angels,” I shrugged, “they were the ones to bring him here in the first place.”

“The angels?” The look on his face told me a lot about what he felt. And that was why I kept myself away from making this move for an entire hour.

Plus another reason of course.

“The angels don’t care about any of us,” I finally said what I really asked him here, “they are just selfish races who seek only their benefit. Even their honour is questionable! If there is a treacherous race here to guard against then they would come on top of the list.”

“And you’ll be the king of such a list!” At this moment three angels appeared midair. From their faces I could see they were on the verge of vomiting blood.

Of course I knew they’d come. After all, they never had left in the first place.

“Ah, it’s our dear angels,” I said as if I was startled by their appearance, “I was just mentioning you, speaking about your dirty work here and the treason you committed against all the races combined.”

“We didn’t do anything!” the middle angel, the leader of this group of three, shouted in denial, “we are just aiding all the races and guiding them over the course of the apocalypse!”

“Yes, we do everything in fairness!”

“We never betrayed any word given by us!”

The other two joined in and spoke, and they just added more fun to this funny meeting.

“Guide? Fairness? Honour your words? Tsk, I never expected you to have such thick skin,” I shook my head in disappointment while the Selvator standing in front of me was all silent.

“Since when you were fair to all races? You treated humans like you treat pigs and sheep! You are biassed, even before the apocalypse started you were already standing on one side against the other.”

I pointed my hand towards the monster before adding, “and now just look at the mess you created here? Not only you brought such a deadly f*cking monsters from a dark realm to kill all the races here, you also allowed such a parasite to infect it. Your words? Humph, I don’t need to speak about that! Just take a look around and everything will be clear to any blind!”

“You…!” the leader of the angels trembled slightly as he heard what I said. What? Did you think I’d keep all this stuff to myself?

Dude… Surviving this apocalypse wouldn’t be possible if such war continued. You allied five races together, and if I added the scary Curasee race as well then things would look worse for me and all the humans.

To survive, I had to crack such a coalition at any cost. Thanks to you, I finally got a chance to lay down my first foundation in doing that!

“Humans were never considered a high race to begin with!” the leader finally showed his real intentions towards humans, “but for other races, we highly esteemed them. Esteemed archlord Fang, please don’t let him trick you.”

“Trick him?” I scoffed as if this was a joke, “he is a Selvator, not an idiot.”

I said this while shrugging, as if I was saying some kind of praise to that dude called Fang. I just noticed that the three angels were showing a strange attitude towards this dude here.

Was he a big shot back at home? Should I kill him now or wait for later?

“My archlord… Please…”

“Enough!” Fang seemed to grow tired of listening to our bullshit. Of course he had all the right to feel so, even though I wanted to go and punch those dirty angels in the face.

“You said they brought the monster,” the Selvator said while his tone seemed damn serious. The air that dude emitted made me feel danger and he just unconsciously released it.

Damn those Selvators! They were really blessed!

“They did,” I nodded, “they used some sort of a treasure to create a summoning gate between our world and the dark realm…” I intentionally paused before asking, “have you heard about the dark realm before?”

“Who didn’t?” he simply answered, “but I have to admit, a human in such secluded and retarded world knows about that is a surprise for me!”

“I guarantee you’ll be more surprised the more you know me,” I smiled without adding anymore.

Right now the decision was in his hands to make, not mine. Either he believed me and accepted the temporary alliance I’d propose, or he wouldn’t and would stand on the side of the angels like always.

“We’ll see about that,” he said before adding, “you also mentioned something… a parasite you said?”

“Ask them, not me,” I pointed towards the three angels. And the answer to his question came in one simple response.

*Fwoosh!*

The three of them flashed and vanished without even saying goodbye. Fang frowned, as he furrowed his brows and his face changed a bit.

“Told you,” I shrugged, “they can’t be trusted.”

“But you know what they did here, right?” he said, “tell me then.”

“This can be done but…” I intentionally paused and he got what I meant.

“You must do anything with a price? I read something about your race regarding such a lowly nature of yours!”

Despite his words being mean and rude, I didn’t flinch. Dude, of course I would milk you to the last drop without batting an eye! Even if you called me stingy or a bastard!

“First it’s now a lowly nature or anything like this,” I said in a calm tone, “this is the rule of the universe. We aren’t the only race dealing in such a way. Besides I require two things, one is a fair price, and the other is a contract between the two of us.”

“A contract?” his eyes shone and I could feel his suffocating pressure coming out of his raised guard, “What type of contract?”

“A secrecy ensuring contract,” I said while exerting every ounce of my strength to not tremble in front of his brutal aura, “this knowledge is something you should know for now.”

“But you already know it!”

“I’m different,” I said before boosting myself, “I’m a special case!”

“…”

The Selvator dude seems to not believe my words. Fang, I came from the future dude and knew things you would never get to know!

“Bring it out then,” he said without changing the look on his face, “and fill in the price you wanted. If that price wasn’t fair, then I wouldn’t accept the entire deal!”

“Well… About that… You see…” I showed my struggle instead of taking the contract out.

“What?”

“My market is sealed,” I helplessly raised both hands in the air, “so I’ll have to trouble you for that.”

“Here,” in a simple wave of his hand, he threw a contract towards my direction. It happened so fast that I even missed the moment he opened the market and purchased it.

Or wait… was he already prepared and had such things in his inventory? Damn! This dude seemed to be your meticulous type!

I filled the content of the contract before throwing it back to him. “I already signed it,” I said while watching his face as he started reading the contract.

“This…” he raised his head and his eyes shone in dangerous light. The air he emitted made me retreat a couple of steps, while a graver feeling of danger overwhelmed me.

“This is the fair price for such info,” I said while not showing any intention of changing my price, “or else there is no need to make this deal.”

*Roar!*

Just as this moment the monster seemed to get a message from the angels. That dude who was trying to kill all the races around finally turned his gaze at me. And as it roared, it raised its head to the sky and released a silent roar.

“It’s coming again,” I muttered, “we don’t have much time. Those bastards just told that parasite that his covering is blown and so he is going to attack in a wild way.”

“Wilder than this?!” the Selvator raised an eyebrow while I couldn’t help but inwardly sigh. “You still call him a parasite?” He tried to get a clue out of this, but I sealed my lips tight and said nothing.

I only motioned towards the contract. Dude, that price might seem heavy but it wasn’t anything to you.

“But this doesn’t include this city, right?” he said while his question seemed like an exclamation of surprise and doubt rather than really asking. “Are you this confident in surviving the trap laid in the city?”

“I’m not only confident,” I mysteriously smiled and this time I gave off a strong air filled with confidence, “and in the end this city will fall under my reign, and you’ll be the one giving me the keys to this city.”

“You…” the two of us stood without backing off. Even if he was stronger than mine, I wasn’t lower in terms of will power.
