I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

Chapter 1525 A Big Shot!

"Stop trying this damn hard to fool me! I won't fall for this!" I roared, like an angry beast who just got severely wounded and backstabbed by its fellow mates.

[What do you want then? Just tell me what you got in mind and I'll do everything in my power to secure it for you]

"Stop wasting your time. You already sold me out, damn jerk!"

[No! I'm on your side!]

"As if I'm going to buy any of that! You are only on your side, not anyone's at all! F*ck it! I'm going to defect, help those poor fiends and help them claim this new world. I'll even be appointed as the general leader of the entire campaign in this shitty universe!"

[I dare you do it!]

"Watch me then!" I was getting closer to the portal while exchanging such explosive words with this damn bastard.

[Fine! Fine! Stop it and let me hear what you got in mind]

"I want one thing only," I said, without even holding back my steps, "I want a clear announcement about this… Whoever is going to win this shitty war will get the total ownership of this world, a kind of ownership that won't get challenged by anyone no matter what."

[This… You do know there isn't such a thing in the entire universe! All the worlds are open for anyone to go and fight for them!]

"Then give me a protection period!" I stopped, just a few metres away from this portal, "one thousand years! No one is allowed to touch my world for one thousand years!"

[This… It's too damn long!]

"One thousand years is long? For you, for the universe, it's like a moment passing by!"

[No, let's make it twenty years then!]

"F*ck you!" I took another step forward, before stopping under his screaming words.

[Stop it! Why are you acting this impulsive? You were never this short tempered before!]

"Try and watch someone stealing your sh*t and tell me how you'll react right then!"

[But that doesn't give you the right to ask for such an insane period of protection!]

"Then tell me, what's the most appropriate period in your opinion?" I raised an eyebrow, waited for his answer.

[Let's say twenty years is a… Wait wait… Ok, fine! Let it be one hundred years. Your world, in case you ended up winning this quest, will be protected by us for one hundred years]

"Why do I get the feeling that you'll start working against me to not win this quest?"

[Stop being delusional! We are the system higher ups! We are neutral and won't side with anyone]

"For real? Do you think I'm a kid or what?" I knew this dude was thinking and seriously considering helping the Hescos against me.

I would never let my own stuff fall into anyone's hands! I came back through time to live a proper life, not one that would end up by me serving others!

[I'm telling you a given fact]

"Fine! Let's see what you'll do from here on. If I sniff anything suspicious, don't blame what will happen to me."

[We won't break our code. However, I have to warn you that such protection is only limited to the inhabitants of the universe]

"Wow! Are you implying that you'll work with the enemy to take my world down or what?"

[Dude! You are indeed quite a promising seed, but you aren't that big at all in the entire picture yet. Don't give yourself a credit for something you aren't even close from]

"What does that even mean?"

[It means you are still an ant! Don't think too highly of yourself! If not for this damn quest, you won't have gotten to speak to me in the first place!]

"Speaking as if you are some big shot out there," I laughed, and the silence that followed made my laugh die down fast.

[My name is enough to give the leaders of any race you are scared of a scare! Do you think I'm a big shot or what?]

"Damn! And you are the one complaining about me being arrogant? Come on! Are you trying to trick me here or what?" I raised both eyebrows when he said his words. I never expected he'd be something important, and my last lousy joke came just to cover up on my shock.

And it seemed I failed miserably at that.

[Interesting kid indeed! Even when you are scared and surprised like this, you are trying to cover up using such cheap methods. You are still a kid after all… I'm just curious, how such a lowly race, one that no one ever placed in the eye before, managed to give birth to such a kid like you?]

"Go and ask my father and mother, if they are still alive indeed."

[Kid, there are methods out there you don't know about, methods that will even let someone like me speak to the dead]

"Damn! I'm going to go before this talk will become creepier than that!" I decided to end my negotiations here. I got what I wanted. And I didn't want him or any other to suspect the fact of me not belonging to this era.

Speaking with my dead father and mother? What the damn nonsense was that?!!

[Just do your job and crush the enemy. Don't let anyone take control of anything here, or else don't blame me at the end of all this]

"I won't let anyone take this quest from me," I firmly said, while opening a chat next, [Bring Toramos and all the Hescos dudes in our circle here right away!]

[What's wrong? Does something happen?] Lily sent back almost instantly. I knew she would be confused right now, but she'd be more shocked when she'd hear about all the new intel.

This… This was something unbelievable! Earth was going to merge here, and this place, the place that got inaccessible by all the races in the universe for endless years, was going to fall in my hands in the end.
