I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

They all looked quite puzzled, even that jumper stood in silence while his eyes were dead fixed on me.

He already got what I wanted to do here, and that meant I already selected the method to invade these worlds.

So no matter what he or others said, I already decided on what to do. And that made that dude quite anxious.

"I want you to tell me your thoughts," I shrugged, "according to the reasons you'll give me, I'll decide to follow through on what I decided, or change a few details in the plan, or change the plan entirely and select another."

"..."

My words left everyone here speechless. This was a democratic gathering, but a war council where the leader, I, already decided on what to do.

I just wanted to hear out their thoughts, to make sure I didn't miss any detail that might cause problems later on.

"Come on, don't give me these looks," I laughed as no one spoke, "tell me what you think, and don't bother with each other's viewpoints."

"Tsk," even Lily was displeased with my way of doing things, "at least tell us what you decided first."

"Isn't it obvious?" I spread my arms, and left them to guess.

I didn't want to tell them anything, or else they'd focus on either defending or criticising the plan I selected. I didn't want to hear complaints or praises, I wanted to hear ideas, logic, thoughts, plans, and such things.

The first to speak was the jumper. And that jerk just kept repeating the word 'Fast' too much in his talk. 𝒇𝘳ℯℯ𝚠𝙚𝑏𝗻𝑜ѵ𝑒𝙡.co𝑚

After that Legend stepped in, spoke more about how the slow approach was better and gave many reasons for that.

One by one they started to speak up, and after an hour or so, I got nothing new from them.

This made me inwardly sigh. Everyone only focused on safety and such useless things. They never cared to see the bigger picture, not giving real useful ideas or tactics except for few.

Legend spoke again about the bubble tactic. While Lily spoke about using the zombies and the great weapons I got from the research department.

Isac spoke about using the geared forces as the main bulk of the army. And yet none of these were helpful to me.

I was aware of all this. I needed new tactics, new ideas, and no one gave me such a thing.

Tsk! It seemed they weren't going to be of any help at all in this regard.

"The meeting is over," dejectedly, I gave them the order to retreat and get a little rest before the grand opening.

"Won't you tell us your decision?" The jumper, Sara, and Legend spoke up at the same time while others glared at me in a curious way.

"It's obvious as I said it before," I sighed, "we will disperse, one general per world."

"Yes!"

"I love this plan!"

The two who spoke up in support and joy were none other than the jumper and Sara. One wanted to get this task done fast, and the other loved brutal and deadly fights.

As for others, they got gloomy looks on their faces. None was stupid, and they all got how hard and quite risky such a plan was.

"Why take the harsh route instead of the steady one?" Lily finally spoke up, expressing her doubts and asking for an explanation.

And with a few words I explained what they all missed, including the jumper.

"We don't get the time you all thought we have," I sighed, "these worlds are either time or space locked, and we have a limited amount of time for each world. If we took it one by one, no matter how fierce we tried, no matter how many armies we used, we would still end up missing a few words at the end…"

I started to explain, explain things they all missed. The more I spoke, the gloomier they became. But none ever spoke to argue or object on any of what I said.

After all, I was speaking with facts and my words made sense. I wasn't like the jumper, blurting out we need to do it fast and all without explaining anything that would make sense to anyone.

"Sigh! It's decided then from the start to follow this plan… Why take our opinions then?" Lily asked, seemingly disgruntled from my decision and yet she got nothing to say to change my mind.

"I wanted to hear new interesting ideas," I shrugged, "but you all disappointed me."

I was telling them the truth. Even if it was a little harsh, they still had to hear how I felt.

I thought they might give me new ideas, tactics to use depending on the newly acquired forces like the geared ones.

We now had lots of assets in our armies. And that was something that requires lots of minds to mix together and bring new ways to better use them.

I might have a few tricks that I already used and tested. But that also meant the enemy learnt about these. That was why I wanted to hear out new ideas and tactics, to use them in what is yet to come.

I wanted new stuff, things the enemy didn't know. And so I would still have few surprises left to use in dire moments. 𝘧r𝘦𝗲w𝘦𝚋𝐧o𝘷𝘦𝙡.co𝑚

The enemy saw everything I got. They saw my Avengers, soulers, my shields, my bones, and even my recently acquired cube.

They saw my artefacts, the main tactics I used to fight with. They got to see all of my generals, learnt all about their abilities and nature, and there was no fresh pool to select from except the newly acquired generals from Silverlining.

The only thing I didn't use yet was the weapons I got from the research department. Even zombies got used before and I ended up losing them when that scary attack was unleashed back then.

In brief, I got nothing that the enemy didn't know. And from the look of things, they got to prepare to fight against most of my tricks, if not all.

And I didn't like such a thing.
