I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

“We found other forms of energy, like the silver liquid, the green mud, and the red fog.”

She stated such weird names even for me. I didn’t know what all these things were. “Are they useful?” I asked, trying to understand their value first.

“They are a much higher form of energy than stat points for example,” she used something I could understand, “plus they can be used in generating energy to be used to fuel the cities and towns.”

“Really?” I raised both eyebrows when I heard what she just said, “do you know how to do it?”

“Not me of course,” she pointed at Hilary before adding, “but she has a good amount of rare talents who can. I dunno where you found those scary talents, but they can make gold out of dirt.”

“Talents? You mean the ones I bought last?” I turned to Hilary and she seemed to not fully get what Isac meant.

“Sigh! You had such a task and got yourself busy fighting with that girl,” Isac rolled her eyes, took the role of being a paragon again, “you have really useful talents. You have to know how to use them better!”

“How don’t you handle this task then?” I turned to Isac, “you seem to be aware of what these talents should be used for.”

“I… I have lots of things to do!”

“You finished mapping out this part of the world, right?” I calmly spoke and she slowly nodded, “and you already finished a great deal of mapping my kingdom. So you are the least one with work here, right?”

“But…”

“Hilary will supervise the building of the coastal border. You only have to supervise the building of the aquatic forts. You have nothing else to worry about.”

“…”

“You will handle these talents. Go, go and send someone to bring those talents. They will come with you to Earth. Let them work together with the MIT youths.”

“MIT… You mean…”

“The youths working to solve the issue of the energy in my capital,” I nodded, “let the two combine efforts and work with what they knew to bring better results.”

“Ok,” she reluctantly agreed. She had no other choice but to do that.

“Go now, you all have many things to do,” I looked at the village down below, “I’ll take that building and stay in it after finishing my round.”

“It’s Hilary’s…” Angelica looked envious towards Hilary who gave her a sly smile in return.

“Go, I have to check over the progress of my people here,” I waved my hands to the three girls to leave. After they left, I realised that I didn’t get what cosmetics even meant.

Sigh! I just hoped it wouldn’t be a great treasure or else all their efforts would be wasted. If it was a treasure, I’d keep it for myself.

As they got down, I started moving my chariot again. I started by taking a slow tour around the already finished towns and city.

This was a sight I wanted to see everywhere here and on Earth. My humans were walking, talking, living their lives in such peace and happiness.

That was the life I wanted to be in my kingdom. Even when the three kingdoms back in my days were in their prime, they failed to give such a sense of security to their people.

I read a record once, as the biggest regret of one of the kings who ruled one of the three kingdoms there. His biggest regret was to fail in providing security for humans, considering this failure as a sign for the failure of humanity in the apocalypse.

And I would totally agree with him.

If that king was living in my time and came to see this scene, he would feel relieved that his dream was fulfilled.

I took my time flying over the towns and cities here. I took more than three hours looking at the faces of humans with bright smiles, even hearing many laughs coming from down below.

I liked this atmosphere. I knew this was possible because this world was void of apocalypse.

Was the apocalypse a curse to any world it visited or a blessing? Looking at such life here I knew it was a curse. But I wouldn’t succumb to such a curse easily.

I’d try my best, do everything I could, and turn my Earth into something similar to such peace and tranquility here.

After I’d seen enough, I moved my chariot far away. I set loose the races here since I came and decided to establish a foothold for me here.

Long time passed, a long time that I didn’t feel at all. During these weeks, the area cleared on the hands of these races was really huge!

It took me ten hours to cross the distance they cleared using my chariot’s highest speed. It was simply unbelievable!

The world that was once filled with dense trees and filled with forests was now void of any sign of life. The ground looked naked without its thick cover of trees and plants.

“Stop working,” Once I arrived, I shouted at them, “gather everything and return back to one of the towns.”

I didn’t give such an order through my contract interface. I wanted to check and explore the world while doing that.

Just after flying in a circular path for an hour, I noticed some sort of digging at a place not far from the world of trees.

I looked at it and recalled what the two girls were fighting about. I was curious about these relics, and so I went to check that place.

It was as I imagined, a deep hole that had signs of old civilization down below. Old statues, old buildings, and even a few corpses appeared in the depth of this hole.

I stood there and examined this place using my Hawk Eye skill. It was just weird, how such a world that was bustling with life and prosperity ended in such a miserable way.

All that was left were these statues and parts of ancient buildings, covered with dirt, and forgotten forever.

If not for my arrival here, these relic sites would be lost forever without anyone even knowing they existed.
