I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

Chapter 1545 You Are Wrong!

If I got strippers to dance for me at this moment like how old humans used to enjoy themselves in their free time, then I'd have invited them on board and let them fill the entire world with their cheers and laughs.

I was truly and honestly open to any situation and welcoming to any decision. After all, I got my home and people, my forces and interest, my kingdom and my hard work achievements, I got them all in my pocket.

So jerks, what would you do about it? Which side would you select to satisfy? And which side would you choose to face their wrath and revenge?

[We have decided to support you!] and when two hours passed, and I thought they'd take much longer to make up their arrangements and deals with the Hescos and other big races, the higher up sent this unexpected message over.

"What's the catch here?"

[There is none!]

"Then how come you selected me over the big names? I don't believe you!"

[Don't thank me, but thank your allies. They did exert lots of pressure to secure this deal for you]

"The Toranks?!" I never thought about asking them for help. But it seemed they took the initiative, and came to pressure the system higher ups against the Hescos.

Damn! I totally forgot that I got such a big name behind me. This was the advantage of having someone strong and mighty as a big brother or a friend.

[They did pull every string they can, and in the end you got what you want]

"So… Will I get all the races here?"

[As long as they agree to join you, then it's fine]

"Are you sure?" I paused, before laughing, "this isn't some shitty trick of yours, right?"

[Kid, the universe is too big to be centred on you. It's just the importance of the races here in the big picture that we are talking together right now. Or else, trying to speak to me will be the last wish you'll struggle to achieve in this life!]

"The same goes for you," I laughed. I didn't take any of his arrogant words to heart, "I'm going to impress all of you then."

[I just want the races to be secured, and try to preserve most of their numbers. These races… They hold the future of our universe]

"Sorry, but I beg to differ."

[How so? Do you perhaps think that you know better than I? Than other big shots here?]

"I won't say I know better for sure, but I can say you are wrong!"

[Prove me then, and I promise you one time help from me]

"Five times help, not one!"

[Damn! Are you perhaps a descendant of an old stingy merchant lineage or what? Why does it turn out to be a hustle every single time we talk and deal together?]

"Anytime you speak, you come up with a chance for a trade," I laughed, "don't blame me for being too overly cautious. I want more interest in my kingdom and race."

[This is called greed]

"This is called the leader's responsibility towards his people," I laughed, "now, what will you say about my offer? Five times help? Is it a deal?"

[Tsk! Fine, let's go with five. But I will select these five times myself, and you won't go around shouting my name all over the place every time you face a hiccup or something. It will be quite annoying to waste my breath and time over trivial matters]

"Don't worry, I never deal with trivial matters either," I evilly grinned, "now let me prove you wrong."

[Be my guest!]

This dude… He didn't realise that he already fell in my trap. In fact I was just overjoyed by such an ending.

Of course I didn't care if he agreed or not, both options held advantages for me. However the thought of being on the side of evilness, helping the villains and becoming one of them still annoyed me.

Not to mention, I already got friends here in this universe. I never expected the Toranks to take the step and support me against the Hescos.

Thinking this came thanks to their enmity with the Hescos, or thanks to their value of our friendship and alliance was just naive.

These dudes… They did all this just to ask for something in return. If they came out first, talked with me about this, then a long bargain would happen, one that I'd end up taking and chopping lots of their benefits.

So they adopted another approach, took the initiative and saved me from this disaster. At the same time, they held the fate of me and my kingdom again in their hands.

If I didn't agree on their terms, if I tried to negotiate and made a fuss about their demands, then they'd simply flip the switch, join the Hescos in pressuring me.

The quest didn't end and I didn't get anything yet. So all these promises were empty words that the system higher ups could renege at any moment from.

The only guarantee that wouldn't happen was the presence of the Toranks by my side. Tsk! Those dudes were becoming more cunning, harder to deal with.

They put me in front of reality, and didn't give me a single chance to evade or hustle about their demands.

"You think the future of the universe lies within the hands of these twenty races, but you are wrong. These twenty races are strong and unique indeed, and are going to form a formidable force on our side to fight against the invading universe. But…"

[But what?]

"You totally forgot that the ones who rescued them from such a disastrous fate are us, the ones who came from the universe."

[Your point is?]

"If they are this mighty and capable, why didn't they break free a long time ago on their own? Why did they need our help? That's because without us, they won't be able to do anything, nothing at all! They are strong, but like a strong and sharp sword, without a capable swordsman holding it, the sword will turn into a useless piece of metal, a scarp that has no value or use."
