I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

"Shut up! I'm in a good mood, so don't dare to ruin it," I bellowed back, shifting my gaze away and kept thinking about the great news I got.

I now had a world filled with necromancers, one that was going at a different pace than Earth. And that wasn't all… I still got that flying castle where I can also imply such an effect or even fiercer there.

How blessed was I? Right? I was truly blessed, hahaha!

As I picked her up, we went directly towards the capital.

The distance there wasn't that big to begin with. In less than one hour, we arrived at the capital.

I left for many days and entrusted this place over for Isac to reconstruct and fortify the defences.

She also got the task for expanding the building process outwards. Of course she ran short of manpower, but from what I saw she did a great job!

The capital was already lined with many forts and great walls before the last war hit. From the inside, it was almost vacant, with buildings concentrated mainly at the centre of it.

But now? The entire place was already occupied with buildings. The digging work was over and most of the capital buildings were finished already, with few here and there still under the building process.

Streets were wide and well paved, with few people walking over them here and there.

The manpower here seemed to work somewhere else. She also attended the defences, fortifying them and adding more walls and forts to make the capital look like a real fortress.

"She did a great job here," I couldn't stop myself from commending her work in a loud tone.

"Who is she?" but I totally forgot that Isac's true identity was still hidden from most of my people, including Angelica.

"It's nothing," I hurriedly changed the topic, "do you know where he is right now?"

"Why not contact him directly?"

"Let's ask one of the dragon rider girls first," there were few flying nearby and so I went there and asked one of them about Isac's location.

"Lord, Master Isac is now outside the capital, overseeing the grand building projects outside the West."

As usual, that girl responded in such a respectful way. I ignored her attitude and looked towards the West. "How far from here?"

"Three hours by our speed."

She was using one of my dragons, which got a decent speed indeed.

"Are things alright here?" I didn't let her go before asking about the current situation in the capital.

"It's all great, lord…" She started to speak about the situation here. As the drums of war moved away from the capital, the situation here grew all peaceful and calm.

In such times of peace, work was done much more efficiently. The only drawback here was the lack of enough hands to work faster and finish much bigger projects.

From her words, I knew that the building project of the capital was done a couple days ago. Then Isac led many to leave the capital, go with her towards outside, planning to expand the building process and help other workers out there.

From what I heard, I got that Isac already sent people out there to start working in many towns and cities.

She was such a hard boss to deal with in terms of planning and building. After listening to all this, I sent the girl away before heading towards the direction she pointed at.

Three hours by the dragon speed would be crossed by less than one hour with my chariot. But I didn't go there this fast.

I took my time first to take a tour in the almost done capital. Then after seeing the grand work here that was on par with the work I saw before at the cities in my other world and even better, I started flying outwards.

The fields out there were already filled with growing plants. Different plants grew at different speeds, but they didn't yet develop to show much difference in outer appearance.

Villagers were working hard there, caring for their plants. I flew over their heads and saw how good things here were.

Then I crossed the western river, and from there I started to see the grand process of construction being done by my people.

They were building a cluster of a city and five towns around, the same arrangement used back in my other world before.

Seeing this and noticing the walls being dug and built first around this cluster gave me an impression of what Isac was trying to do here.

She seemed to start working on the zombie containment plan, while using these clusters as bases of resistance against such infestation.

It would work, indeed, provided that all these clusters were occupied with my people and forces.

And this task was for me alone to do.

I knew the issue wasn't getting enough force. We had large armies at the eastern side, fighting to control that continent for me.

But normal people were the big issue. They didn't have to be strong or military trained. But they have to be in large numbers, enough to support the guarding army in each cluster in any battle.

From the look of it, Isac seemed to care first about building defences before the towns and cities themselves. As we flew more to the West, we were met with many half finished walls and forts surrounding clusters, and then we arrived at areas filled with digging alone.

But from the shape of these diggings, it was all related to the walls and forts, with little or even no care towards the cities and towns themselves.

[Where are you?] As I reached this point, I knew she wouldn't be that far.

[I'm already there, where are you in this wide open West?]

[Let me see… Oh, you aren't that far from me. Will take my chariot out and come for you now]
