I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

I already established lots of twin devices in a zone close to here. The portals that finally linked this spot to other places were at least in the hundreds. And that meant I got too many places to visit, not less than the ones I just finished, or even a bit more.

I didn’t hesitate or delay, and went directly through the portals there. The places I arrived at looked much worse than the ones I visited before.

These places got more of my forces there. After all, these were the places where my generals were, alongside lots of forces, many of these were elites.

But that didn’t make any difference. In fact, I felt like their situation was much worse than what I already saw before.

They weren’t just fighting fiends and high zombies, but many other elite enemy troops, including worms!

Those damn worms appeared everywhere and kept swallowing lots of my elites everywhere. The ground was filled with tons of holes, looking like a grand and ugly beehive.

I instantly took my Kings, taking five million this time. I didn’t know if they could deal with these worms. But if they failed, then my cube would be the answer.

However, to my surprise, the Kings showed how brutal and deadly they were. They didn’t get stopped even by the Exomachines that stopped my soulers before. And these worms didn’t even stand a chance against them.

They just needed to flash more than ten times to take a single worm out, working together in large groups to cover up the worm’s grand bodies.

I watched all this from high above, while seeing how hectic the current battle was!

There were lots of scattered forces here, extending beyond the horizon, filling the entire world around for tens of miles. I knew this must have been one of my great armies, one that was responsible for taking down a world or something.

I couldn’t just stabilise this situation using Kings. And if I wasted much time here, more forces would be lost. So I took out my cube, and activated it to the fullest, sucking in all the troops in a thousands of miles radius.

Be it an enemy or ally, I sucked everyone in. and then I let my cube work its magic, turning everyone into my forces.

“Go and secure this region and regions beyond,” I didn’t keep them confined inside the cube, took them out, and let them loose over the enemies, “save others, and kill any enemy you find! Especially you, damn worms!”

I knew how scary and formidable worms were in such battles. The more hectic the situation was, the better and scary these worms would be.

I released everything, called back my Kings, and instantly took my leave.

This was just one of many places I visited. I didn’t take out my Kings anymore, and just used my cube to switch the tables here.

Even so, I knew there were just too many of my forces scattered all over the new world without a way to reach or save them. I had to accept such loss, and see the new forces gained by my cube as the pay back for such losses.

But deep down my soul, I knew this wasn’t enough, not even close from enough. The enemy started off this final war with a big blow towards me, and I had to admit they played their cards quite brilliantly this time.

However… This didn’t mean I lost the war or something. It was just a big loss, that was all. I was going to have tons of forces coming soon enough, the moment this entire stupid merge would be over.

Just wait… The moment my forces would come where, everything would change for the better.

[Tell me, did that jerk send any valuable intel?]

[He… He sent a lot, but I didn’t know how to tell these to you]

[What do you mean?] I didn’t get what she meant by that. I thought the moment she’d receive anything from that jerk, she’d just send these over in a hurry or something.

I was still in the middle of helping my forces through the new portals. However, that wasn’t an excuse for her to hide such a thing from me.

So there must be something that prevented her from doing so, and that would be something quite bad. [Come on! Tell everything to me]

[Well… didn’t you already notice something weird going on here?] and unlike what I expected, she didn’t start off by telling me anything of value.

Instead, she asked such stupid and useless question. [What does this even mean? Everything around is quite hectic and weird!]

[I mean… Something big is missing from the entire picture]

[Missing? Hmm… If we are speaking about missing things, then I have to admit I miss my forces from Earth]

[Not that! I mean something that should have been present and it’s not!]

[You don’t mean… Other races?]

[Yes! Them!]

I paused for a long minute without saying a single word. I already felt how weird their absence was. [I thought they were missing as we didn’t establish direct portals between our ground zero and their worlds… Don’t tell me there is another reason out there for this]

[Well… In a way your theory is correct. I also thought the same, thought they got scattered all across the entire new world. As we didn’t have any portals linking directly to their worlds, it meant there was no way for us to reach them, right?]

[Right!]

[Wrong!]

[How come? What do you know? Wait a minute… Did that jerk send something unbelievable again? Damn his bad luck!!]

[Well… It’s not that bad luck actually. He discovered something huge going on]

​

[Everything we did… According to the intel he sent so far, everything we did was for nothing]

[What do you mean by that?!!] I felt my heart clench when she sent these words. Other races were missing, and she linked them with that jerk and the news he sent over.
