I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

It was as if I was looking at the world in the middle of the night, and then morning came out fast and the sun rose high in the middle of the sky.

The world around started to look shinier than before, with new colours appearing and many sparkling items all over the place.

“This… Don’t tell me these colours refer to the ores and gems hidden inside the ground!” I couldn’t help but think back to one of the trivial comments Lily mentioned when I spoke about leaving the homebase worlds of the enemy.

She told me that they found lots of ores in these worlds when they dug the ground to look for these bombs. And from the different shimmering colours that appeared in shining ways all around the world, filling my eyes with a myriad of lights like it was a festival of something, I couldn’t help but think about that comment of hers.

There was another thing that I noticed. These lights came from different depths in the ground, as if the ground out there turned all dark and translucent, showing things deep down it, things buried deep below the surface.

I could finally see new stuff in the world out there. But that didn’t mean I was happy.

“It’s f*cking glaring with lights! What the hell does this place get formed of? Lights and nothing else or what?” I got frustrated, as everything was shining brightly in front of my eyes.

I could see lots of things at the same time, and yet couldn’t differentiate which belonged to what! Without knowing what was special about these bombs, then I got to do all this for nothing.

“Ok… Ok… I need to think again then…” I took repeated deep breaths, before finally deciding to think again about everything.

I did everything right so far. I used an immense amount of energy, gushed it through my technique, and that instigated such change all over the outer world.

But that didn’t end up helping me at all. I have to find another way, or modify things here.

“Wait… I shall go to these bomb locations and see if there is something special about them,” it suddenly hit me. I already buried lots of bombs under the ground, and I knew precisely where these locations were.

So why should I think about another method or even modify this one when I didn’t yet check on their locations?

I moved my eyes fast, and focused over the spots I buried these bombs at. And like I expected, something looked a bit different out there.

“These bombs… They are shining brightly like pure stars in the sky!” I couldn’t control my shock, while looking at these bombs on the ground.

They didn’t look like any bomb at all, but like real stars shining blazingly bright in the middle of the night.

Such a discovery made me quite excited. At last! At last these f*cking bastards showed something unique about them.

However… when I looked at these stars shining brightly down there from close up, I could easily identify them. But when I shifted my gaze upwards, I missed them in the middle of all the blazing lights around.

It was like a total wreck of lights, a mess that would blind anyone and lead me astray.

“Hmm… I hope this can help… Hawk Eye!” I got just this skill out there to see through things far from me.

“Agh! What the f*ck…?!!!” However, the moment I activated my skill, things didn’t look any better at all. They looked much worse actually!

This skill magnified everything in my eyes, making the lights shine brighter, blinding me deeper, and bringing immense pain.

“Dammit! I have to find another way then,” I instantly deactivated this annoying skill. I could feel that my overall coverage area expanded after using it, but the cost it brought was something I couldn’t control or handle.

Now what? I finally managed to spot these stars, find something quite special about them. But that didn’t solve anything in the end!

“Wait a minute… I can bring bombs back here… Can I use my threads, and try to use them as a guide?” I suddenly thought about this, and couldn’t help but instantly cancel everything, get out, and bring a few bombs back.

I never tried to do such a thing before. However these bombs were already deactivated, easily to handle and deal with. So there was no risk in trying this out.

I left the bombs on the deck of my chariot, and activated my technique next. I got enough bones out, and started to absorb them.

This time, I didn’t hurry to merge the threads with the surface of the mirror. Instead, I moved them carefully like tentacles, touching these bombs, and trying to avoid places where the bomb could detonate from.

Even if the bombs were all inactive, they were still bombs. And to not risk anything, I didn’t try out my luck and avoided all the dangerous spots over these bombs’ surfaces.

“This…” and the moment I did that, nothing actually happened. But when I sent more threads out to the mirror surface, ending up merging with it, things started to change abruptly from there.

The lights that were filling my entire vision seemed to suddenly pale greatly. This time, my eyes weren’t blinded like before.

And that came at the same time when I felt a few blazing lights, brightly shining stars that were situated back inside the mirror world.

It was weird, but for unknown reason, the lights all over the world dimmed compared to the lights coming from these stars.

“They actually are affecting the outside world… Dimming anything and everything that isn’t a bomb like them… Yes!”
