I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

Chapter 866 Sending Everyone To One Path

“This isn’t a life,” I couldn’t help but bitterly sigh. Even if I got resentment towards this dude and other leaders like him, I couldn’t bring myself to totally hate them, and even started to grow empathy towards their poor lives.

Such mighty races, once sat on the throne of my universe, turned to live such a miserable life. It was a sad story.

And that made me feel more resentment towards the ones who did all this. I thought before it was the big races in the hostile universe.

But it seemed everyone was acting like mere puppets, getting played and forced to do what those mysterious enemies behind the curtains wanted.

These dirty people… They were my true enemies, the real ones. Without aiming at them at some point, bringing the fight over their lands and killing their forces, none of this would matter.

All the sacrifices of all races in all the universes in this cosmos would be wasted.

Yet that was for another time, another tale for me when I’d grow to such extent to play on such a grand stage.

For now I had to just get stronger while securing my strength and getting stronger with each trial I’d get through.

I was weak, so weak to even think about raising my head and take a grand look at the scale of my universe. Thinking about entering the big cosmos battle would be just a foolish dream for me right now.

“So… This is the grand map of this world?” as I got lost in thoughts, I left him work on the map until he was done. It took him roughly an hour to draw such a detailed map.

It was full of details, but… It was quite small!

“Are you sure you didn’t miss anything there?” I crossed my arms while examining this map. No matter how I looked at it, even with all the details here, it looked like it was missing a lot!

Only big landmarks appeared here, with the twenty places where the ten races lived. Other than this, there was nothing.

“There isn’t anything else to add.”

“Don’t you feel like… You missed the cities, towns… Everything that is filling the entire world here?”

I looked at him, and he seemed like he was surprised by what I just said.

“Well… These are just empty cities and towns, filled with souls, not real life.”

“I know,” I nodded, “but I want to know everything about this place so…” I motioned for him to continue drawing, and he reluctantly returned to complete his task.

I got to know everything, the entire layout of the cities and towns here, the map of the different zones, not just an overall view like this.

It felt ok, but also not ok. I didn’t know why, but something seemed missing and I felt it would be found in the much detailed map.

As he started to work on much more detailed maps, I started to examine the map he gave to me.

First… I couldn’t tell how really big this world here was. I couldn’t decide how long it would take my chariot to go from one circle to another. And there was this little thing that made me ask for a more detailed map, the number of these inhabitant zones.

He said that there were twenty zones inhabited by their races here. On the other hand, there were twenty-five paths leading out from this world.

What did this mean? There was something missing. Five zones were missing.

My best guess? There were twenty-five zones but only twenty were inhabited. However in the map he drew before, there were only twenty zones there.

So where were these missing five? I had to know. Something told me I had to find those missing five.

As he kept drawing, I sent Lucias’ away. He had a fight to supervise. Before sending him away, I made him study and memorise the map, something that seemed a bit troublesome for such a mighty general.

However there was already a map of this world. So why should his people move around, blindfolded, when there was a better way to explore this world?

As he went away using his fast speed, I started to give orders to the people I got.

I had to organise them. “Gather up in different groups, each containing the same race,” I sent while checking the number of contracts I got recently.

Well… I saw a long list of names there, and that made me unable to count them. From the look of them gathering up outside this zone, I estimated to get tens of millions of them.

That was incredible, especially after that last desperate struggle the leaders here pulled.

As they gathered here, I considered what to do with them. I should take them out, but how?

The first thing that popped in my mind was to use my floating castle. This one was enough to take tens of millions, with its own pocket world inside that ran on a time difference.

But when thinking about the other nineteen zones, I knew this solution wasn’t feasible.

I looked at the map and there was one way out, these paths. The twenty-five paths should lead all out. When I came in here, I was teleported towards one of them. And that meant they stood in the middle between here and the outside world.

“See this path?” I had to wait for this fallen god to finish what he was doing, “lead your people there and wait for me. Do not enter that path until I give you the order to do that, get me?”

“Yes, lord,” he bowed before leaving. I also made sure to leave a similar order to everyone.

And then I returned to check the many maps he drew for me.

They were describing the world in great detail. It was a much detailed map, but it lacked the five zones I was looking after.
