I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

I started this project with one sole purpose in mind; changing the human arsenal of weapons and turning them into apocalypse friendly weapons.

To do so, I had to merge the human obsolete tech with the current trend of apocalyptic friendly power sources to form a new hybrid form of energy.

Such a thing would work with my human weapons. Using other routes wouldn’t bring me any results at all!

“But…”

“This is final!” I wouldn’t accept any argument or talk about this matter, “either they help them in doing what I asked them to do, or they can return back to the second Earth world and start working there on what they know.”

“Second what?” The girl looked at me in such a shocked way while others behind her gasped in surprise and shock.

“Not now,” it wasn’t time to introduce the new earth for them, for everyone here. “So, what’s your decision?”

“We accept the lord’s challenge,” one old looking man, with weird spikes covering up what was supposed to be his eyebrows, said in such a deep and strong tone, “we will see how the old human tech will work with ours.”

This old dude… He was smart and got what I wanted to do here from the beginning! Then what was such debate and ruckus that happened here?

Were they testing me?!!

“But… Old Gan…” Isac seemed to treat this old man with eyebrows made of spikes with such respect.

“It’s ok, I like new challenges anyway,” he said, acting as if he held the decision here, not me!

“Start working then and stop wasting more time,” I jumped over this useless remark. This dude was bound by a contract with me. So no matter how he tried to act, he was still serving me.

“What about my aquatic boys?” As the two groups dispersed, went to different directions and started further detailed scientific discussions, Isac turned to me and asked in such a way.

“I told you, in a few hours they will be here.”

“You should be right,” for a reason, she seemed pretty much annoyed by what I did here. Was she adopting the viewpoint of these talents or what?

“Let’s go, we have another place for you to work your magic on,” I dropped all these useless thoughts off my mind while walking back to my chariot.

“Where? Back to that world?” she hurriedly ran after me after staying back in daze for a few seconds.

Of course with her big body, she caught up with me in just a few steps.

“No, it’s here,” I said, while pointing towards the distance, “there is a place out there that needs urgent defensive buildings.”

“At the coast?” The direction I pointed towards wasn’t that far away from the coast. And that made me inwardly sigh when I realised this point.

“It’s a very important place,” I said just that while boarding the chariot with her. As I led the chariot towards that place, she kept asking about what made this place special.

“It’s like… A factory,” I tried to find the right words to describe this place.

“A factory? Producing what?”

“Magical drugs to let anyone start cultivating,” I slowly said, while looking deeply in her eyes.

Once she heard what I said, she, for the first time ever, gasped out of immense shock.

“You… Is there a way to do it?!!!”

“Let’s not speak about this at the moment,” I didn’t want her to get her mind burdened with such a thing. I told her because she would soon know anyway.

And it was better for her to understand the value of this place to take the task of fortifying it very seriously.

“B… But… You know how big this is, right?!!”

“I know, and it’s not the thing I wanted you to do here,” I rolled my eyes, “as you can see, this place lies at the outer border of the capital.”

“It’s… Vulnerable!” she got what I wanted to say, turned around before adding in such a serious way, “I’ll make sure this place is like a fortress when I get finished with it! It will need a miracle if anyone manages to trespass the outer walls of this place.”

“But you have a tight time limit here,” I warned her, “you only got four days, five at most.”

“This…” she paused, realising how hard this task will be, “if you gave me enough support, I surely can do it in a shorter time than that.”

“I’ll give you workers,” I said before pointing towards the ovens here, “and you can use these to help you melt down the ores for the foundation and defensive structures.”

“Cool! But I might need tons of workers.”

“I’ll get you tens of millions if you need.”

“Agreed!”

“Check the area out first,” I led her around in a wide tour, “don’t forget to make account for future expansion.”

“I’ll place the defences away from the current work places,” she paused for a long minute, thinking about the layout of defences in her mind, “the only problem is still out there.”

She pointed at the direction of the ocean. When I saw where she pointed at, I sighed.

Indeed, that place was still considered the most vulnerable weak spot at my capital.

“We will build lots of aquatic forts there,” I said, which gave me little reassurance.

“But… Building such things will take time. And…”

I got what she wanted to say. We didn’t have much time ahead of us. So we had to select which zone to start working on first.

“This place is top priority,” I decided, “the other coast is now fortified with mighty walls and forts. This one will take time to have the same kind of protection.”

“Got it! I will start working over the blueprints and arrange the teams to melt down the needed ores. As for the workers…”

“I’ll get them to you in a few hours.”

“With the aquatic races?”

“Both will arrive at the same time.”
