I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

“I’m not interested in these useless scraps of metal,” I corrected my words, using harsher words to describe what I really felt, “I only am interested in the engineers and scientists in your companies.”

“Who said you can order us around?” After a few moments of angry whispering, one of the people belonging to the Reston company said in a rude way.

*Snap!*

I didn’t need to speak anymore. If they were blind to see the facts, then it was helpful to just shake some sense into them using my boys here.

With a simple snap of my finger, the entire army of my dragons flying high in the air descended all of sudden. They all landed over my chariot, with much more flying around with no place for them to stand there.

With their presence, an immense pressure pushed itself over everyone here. The first to retreat with pale faces were the youths from MIT.

Despite anyone here could tell I never harboured any ill intentions towards them, yet the threatening atmosphere here was really suffocating for all.

“What’s… The meaning…”

“Of this?” I completed the stuttering words of that rude dude, “consider this as a kind reminder, the last reminder I’d ever give to all of you.”

I paused, put a serious look over my face before adding, “I don’t allow such impudence in my forces. If you are this unsatisfied, then you have a chance to gather up what you brought and leave with your people.”

“This…”

“You got one hour to do so,” I waved my hand and the next moment the world was filled with the deafening roars of my dragons. In the face of such deadly creatures, no one could hold his own, no matter what.

Everyone retreated with the same pale faces in the face of my mighty dragons. I lightly smiled as I looked at Moore:

“Tell your people to gather here in one hour. Let them bring all their ideas and projects with them. Also..”

I ignored Wolf and the other two companies representatives and looked at the scared MIT guys, “bring your top students in every field here. I have to discuss something big with everyone.”

“What about us?” one of the Northrop guys asked, while giving a weird look at the guys from Reston.

“You can stay if you want,” I shrugged, “but in my world, only those with brilliant minds can have a place. Or else, you will be distributed over my forces, working as normal soldiers there.”

“This is bullsh*t!” The one from the Reston company was still acting impulsively with me. I gave him a warning glance. Dude, if you spoke another mean word to me, then you won’t even have a chance to leave here in one piece.

“We’ll discuss this with our superiors,” the ones from the Northrop company said, seemingly acting a little smarter than those from Reston.

“We won’t forget this humi…”

*Snap!*

*Roar!*

“Ahhhh!”

That dude really overstepped his boundaries with me. Even before he could continue his threatening words, I snapped my fingers, letting my dragons kill him with a single roar and a mighty breath from one of them.

That dude didn’t take more than one breath to burn and die. His body turned into a blackened dead piece of meat that fell over my chariot in a muffled thud sound.

“I hate anyone speaking to me with no capital,” in front of all the eyes here, I kicked that dead body and sent it flying towards the distance. “Either you know your place or scram off my sight.”

“I’m staying,” without even waiting for my words to end, Wolf suddenly jumped as he added, “I’ll work at any position you choose. But I also brought a few engineers that can be of help to you, sir.”

His tone and the way he addressed me changed greatly after what I just did. I looked at him and couldn’t see anything but sincerity in his face.

“Then you can stay here and work with my forces,” I nodded, “as for your company… Its status will be determined with the contribution your people will make later on.”

“My boys are far more intelligent than anyone else in other smaller fishes,” Wolf’s face didn’t show any sign of joking. He believed in what he said.

“What do you mean, buddy?” Moore was the one who stood up to these words.

“You know that your people aren’t that good compared to ours,” Wolf ignored me, seemingly finding a way to release all his tension over Moore’s head.

“Humph, even if your people were this exceptional and luckily successful before, that doesn’t mean they can compete with my thousand geniuses,” Moore didn’t hesitate to stand up to him, matching Wolf’s challenging words with another.

“We’ll see,” Wolf only harrumphed, turned to me as his face returned to show respect, “I have a question sir.”

“Ask.”

“Will you assess our company’s contribution based on the number of geniuses we brought? Or their help to you in your projects?”

“It’s the latter,” I said, not only to him but also to Moore, “after all what numbers matter? I only care about the big results and who helped me in achieving them.”

“Great,” Wolf happily said before giving Moore a mocking gaze. The latter seemed stirred up slightly before he controlled himself.

“We’ll see how good your people will do,” Moore said these last words to Wolf before excusing himself.

The others also excused themselves. The people from Reston and Northrop companies seemed to be very eager to leave here as fast as they could.

From the look of things, their bosses seemed to mistake my intentions. They thought they were in front of a green grass that they could chew easily.

But who said I was this weak? In fact If I declared I was the second strongest person in the entire human race at this moment, then there was none to claim the first position.
