I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

No matter how arrogant and mighty they acted, the angels were assigned to be the guides of the apocalypse here. I knew they came from a race that survived the apocalypse, and they weren’t gods.

So no matter how they tried to act against us, if their actions were recorded and broadcasted like this, they wouldn’t be able to continue.

They had to change their attitude and show humbleness and cooperation. Or else many complaints would be raised and they would get severely punished.

Were we watched by gods? Frankly I dunno. But according to the old man, the universe was really big and the number of ongoing apocalypses was really huge.

So it was hard for gods to see the general feedback from our apocalypse. Not this early at the least.

But what I did here wasn’t just establishing a channel or being a celebrity. I alarmed the entire universe about the existence of the apocalypse here. I created a scenario many would crave to witness and see its results.

As for their future plan, to continue watching or not, that was something left to fate. But I believed in my ability to make them continue watching.

And that was the real power of the channel, the real power of fame, the simple move that would hit directly at the weakest point of those dirty angels here.

“Fame?” the jumper wasn’t stupid. He seemed to get what I meant slowly before adding, “So you made the entrance fee for free for such a purpose?”

“People who don’t hear about us won’t come to watch if they had to pay,” I said in a happy tone, “but who would say no to a free offer? Only a fool will do that!”

“But they didn’t change until you made that video,” the jumper wanted to know more, but this wasn’t the time for saying everything.

Of course they wouldn’t care about a channel with no subscribers! If my channel had no one to watch, then it would be meaningless. However a single subscriber watching would make all the difference here.

And now the count has already exceeded a thousand! A thousand in mere minutes! Damn! I must have done an amazing promo then.

The first thing I did was to turn all the notifications off. The upcoming battle wouldn’t be just hard, but it would turn harder after what I just did.

However, who cares! I had my own cards up my sleeve, including that jumper next to me.

“Pay attention human, some evildoers have issued something terrible and it’s coming your way,” the central angel said in his changed attitude. Didn’t know why but hearing his tone and seeing that smug smile on his face made me yearn to his true colors.

“Let them come,” I simply said before waving my hand, “go away now. I’ve a hard battle to fight and I want to get ready.”

The angels all vanished without even saying goodbye. How cold hearted they were! I turned to the jumper as I instantly said:

“Come with me, and store away those weapons of yours.”

“Won’t we need them?”

“Not now, and don’t show off your mightiest weapons to your enemies like that.”

His actions from before slightly enraged me. Now the angels would go back and make sure the monsters coming at us would be well prepared.

In fact I wasn’t truly worried about the cannon. It was a disaster that I planned to turn into a blessing. I didn’t plan to just defend them, but get a rare benefit back.

But the monsters… Three gigantic waves weren’t just simple. I opened my contacts and sent a warning message to Angelica.

[Be ready, monster herds are going to hit this place. Make enough preparations and don’t engage in a battle until necessary]

I didn’t like the word the angels used; gigantic. To just make myself easier, I sent another message telling her to move south towards the east side of the Turtle Pond and notify me before coming so I could clear a way for them.

“Are you sure about facing that star weapon?” The jumper stood right now with me just beside the base of the statue. I didn’t stop there and climbed the base as I added, “come, the safest spot is up here.”

He gave me a look full of doubts before climbing and standing on the other side of the big horse.

“Now what?” he asked as if he lost hope about knowing my plans.

“We wait for it to hit us,” I raised my head to the sky. As expected, a single star, red in color, was now shining brightly just above our heads.

“It’s charging,” I slowly said as I pointed high in the air. I knew the subscribers would see the feed with many cameras so I just wanted them to see the star shining brightly in the sky.

That would add more heat to the upcoming battle.

“Are you sure of this?” the jumper seemed to not trust me, “shouldn’t we summon our weapons and shields? Build a fortress here or what?”

“Nothing can stand against that kind of attack,” I simply shook my head, “not even a divine weapon or shield can resist it.”

“What?!!” He seemed to be shocked by my bold declaration. However the next moment the lights all around us started to shine at a rapid pace while all the sounds of the world vanished.

“It’s coming,” I held to the body of the horse before adding, “hold tightly to this horse. Never move, and do not ever fall to the ground or you are doomed.”

The world all around kept buzzing and the light intensified at a terrifying rate. I didn’t know if he heard my last warning or not, but hopefully he did. ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕꪫꪣꫀ​ꪶ​

I raised my head up to the sky and looked towards the bright light brimming up there. It was always a sign of death, no one ever managed to escape being killed from it.

But this time I had a hypothesis in my mind. I lacked any trust before. Yet seeing this light, being at this moment, all the doubts in my heart vanished.

I could do it! That firm belief surfaced from god knew where and overwhelmed my body with weird excitement.

“Here it comes!” I said while watching the light become so bright that it was blinding. The next moment I felt like my entire body was crushed down by a force of god.

It was like nothing I ever experienced or even close to what I imagined. Even taking a breath right now seems to be impossible. My body was crushed down while a red light shone all around.

Heat then slashed next and all I could feel was my skin burning.

“I dare you to kill me!” The loud roaring of the jumper next to me overcame the deafening buzzing of the weapon. I saw him taking out his weapons again, as if he was determined to go on his own plans.

I wanted to scream and stop him, but my voice was sucked away by the terrifying energy. Was I going to die here? Was this my death moment?

*Hum!*

Just at this moment of crisis, a strange humming sound erupted all of sudden. The next moment I felt the tension exerted on me being lifted by a visible degree.

At least I could breath now, not normally but I could do it with little force.

“This…” Even the loud buzzing sound of the red beam of light was weakened to the extent I heard the shocking words of the jumper. He was looking in a certain direction in a daze and I couldn’t help but look upward like him.

“Yeah… It’s working at last!” I couldn’t hide my excitement while seeing the two swords held by that statue shine. They were releasing a wave of mighty aura of faith that started to spread all over the place.

But thinking this aura of faith alone was enough to stop that terrifying red beam was a joke. The spears I arranged around all shone as well as if they responded to some sort of calling.

I saw them humming and buzzing before they broke free from the ground and flew a couple of meters above earth. I sneaked a peek under the belly of the horse and couldn’t help but grin in satisfaction.

It was working! That item I bought at the last minute worked as the heart of this entire array!

“Look! The other spears are reacting as well!!” The jumper acted as a child at this moment. He even jumped to the back of the horse statue and pointed towards the distance.

He was right. Following the response of the spears here, the other spears I scattered carefully at regular intervals shook and got higher from the ground.

It looked like a grand arrow made entirely of red light. The red beam of light looked like being sucked dry by these spears, all headed towards one direction; the dried up pond.

“This… you are a genius!” The jumper didn’t know what I did, but he was smart enough to know this all had to do with my meaningless preparations in his eyes.

That dude… he kept complaining and criticizing my decisions and now he was acting like he was supporting me all the time.

Shameless! He was really shameless!

However I didn’t care much about him and started to closely observe my creation. The first part of my plan depended entirely on one concept; the city destroyer used an aura of faith to attack as its main weapon.

What did this mean? It meant even if I managed to take the toll of the physical attack, the indomitable aura of faith within the beam would kill my soul.

So this was the main failure that jumper and others did when facing this kind of attack. They shouldn’t focus on strength or defense, they should focus on neutralizing this aura of faith.

According to my knowledge, the aura of faith of this weapon was slightly inferior to any god aura. A god being here would be able to destroy the entire planet, not only a mere city.

So the scale of destruction meant this weapon’s aura of faith wasn’t higher or even equal to a god’s aura of faith. And this statue, luckily, had a god aura of faith stored in it.

Though it was a hero grade god, an inferior being to the true gods, it was still a god. The aura of faith of this statue was also special.

It was built based on the logic of defiance. This hero was facing a great enemy at his time and used his will to defy fate and change his destiny.

And that moment was captured inside this statue. Triggering it would require something similar, like the crushing aura of faith coming from that weapon.

In fact I didn’t have complete trust in igniting that aura of faith inside the statue. At the first moments I feared that I failed. But it seemed that my thoughts were all right after all.

The aura of faith the statue released created a clash and neutralized the hostile one of the red beam. What remained was the pure energy pouring down upon our heads.

Even using a divine shield to stop it, we would eventually fail! That power, despite being second to the weapon’s aura of faith, was still brutal. So I used my last bought item to shift this power using the aftermath of the clashing two auras of faith that helped in weakening that beam.

And then the spears came to light. They could channel energy. I placed them in a diagram similar to the shape of the item I last bought. That diagram wasn’t only meant to disperse the energy away from us, but to direct it towards the pond.

After all, I didn’t just aim to deflect this attack, but to use that octopus sac to turn that energy into something far more precious and a treasure I could use later on.

I looked at the spears erected a few meters off the ground, shining with bright red light while feeling nothing of danger at all.

Only little pressure remained, one that wouldn’t endanger me nor the jumper for sure.

This fight… This clash… It was without doubt my win!
