I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse
Chapter 76 - The Daughter Of The US PresidentJust hearing the sounds of explosions this close startled me a few times. That banging loud noise of the explosions was really annoying! And on top of everything, nothing of their actions would work at all!
"I'm Major Mingel," a tough looking middle aged man appeared once I passed through the monster tight encirclement. I looked at him but didn't say anything in return.
"Go, kill those bastards coming closer to here," I said to my warriors and dragons first, "don't let a fly pass by, do you understand?"
*Roar!*
My warriors and dragons issued an ear piercing unified roar as an answer. I didn't know why, but seeing such violent explosions close up made their monstrous nature ignited.
"Thanks for coming to greet me," I finally turned to Mingle. He had a short beard, short hair, both were a mix of orange and yellow. His eyes were blue, reminding me of those famous Hollywood actors of this time.
Yet his face didn't show anything like an actor. Tough skin, broad cheeks, pointed chin, and few recent wounds appearing all over his face. His stance was rigid, like he was a robot or something.
Wearing his military uniform, holding his rifle like he was holding the most precious thing in the world, he stood in front of me with eyes filled with doubt and shock.
"Is it possible to tame these things?" he couldn't finally control his curiosity and asked such a weird question.
"They aren't monsters," I said to correct this info, "they are my warriors."
"Good for you," he patted my shoulders and I felt a faint pressure coming from him. He had unlocked his system and added stat points as well.
Yet he still was using such retarded and obsolete ways and weapons to fight in the apocalypse? C'mon! Gimme a break!
"Are you the leader here?" I asked while starting to walk inside the troops like this was my place.
"I'm," he didn't deny it, "did you come from the other side? Queens?"
"Manhattan," I said while examining the forces here. There weren't just tanks, I also saw many rocket launchers as well! Big guns were like cabbage here on this wide square!
I finally managed to see what lies behind them. A lot of people stood around the entrance of a subway, seemingly looking with fear and curious gazes towards the ongoing battle.
"You came all the way here?" I could feel his puzzlement.
"I didn't come alone," I didn't hide this either, "I'm raising an army right now and they are controlling Manhattan and scattering all across Queens as we speak."
"An army of those giant monsters of yours?"
Again such a dumb a question coming out from him! I rolled my eyes without correcting him. Let him think that way. It would help me in my target here.
"Let me guess, you are trying to protect people inside that subway?" I pointed towards the direction of that station. And he nodded.
"The president's daughter is inside that station," he said in deep respect, throwing a piece of missing info into my face.
Damn! The current president of the USA 's daughter was here? "Don't tell me, it's Karoline?" I asked with doubt while turning to see his expression.
And as I feared, his face changed when I mentioned her name.
"You guessed it right," yet he was conservative in his words. After all, I showed a grand power that he couldn't overcome even using his entire army.
Things started to become clear in my mind. Karoline Rosevelt! The one considered a prodigy even by the words of the old man, the granddaughter of the famous ancient president of the Us, Franklin Rosevelt, and the one who was said to cause a massive massacre at the army forces in the apocalypse.
But wait… Didn't the old man say it started to happen at the fourth quest and later? I couldn't help but raise my head high, check the dark sky of anything shining red above my head.
Yeah, it was as you imagined, that damned city destroyer star weapon. This young lady had something like a death feud with the angels, making them attack her one time after another using such a mass destruction weapon.
Yet she held something that kept her alive even after getting hit by that weapon. I didn't recall exactly what the old man said about such ability, but it must be the reason why the angels targeted her.
Such a girl in her seventeen years old, brimming with life and ambition, plus the inherited genes of leadership coming from her prestigious family, was destined for something great.
Yet that greatness came to stop by the blades of the other races when they started invading our world. The angels couldn't kill him using that deadly weapon, but they butchered a lot of military forces along her course of escaping.
From what I could remember, she managed to run such an astonishing distance from the Atlantic ocean to the pacific side, to be killed at last in California.
She was relentless, cold hearted, and someone with a determination to live and avenge all the people died for her. Yet in the end she had to face such a brutal end. And that was the ugly face of this apocalypse.
The more I thought about her, the more I wanted to meet her and add her to my forces.
I wasn't that much afraid of the big star cannon. After all, I would know first about her ability, then decide the best course of action.
Not to mention she was like a hot cake to the military. Her father was killed during the first hours of the apocalypse, but those who were trying to organise the nation now were desperately looking for her.
They wouldn't only send this group of soldiers, they would send armies upon armies to call her back.
And I now drooled at all these armies coming for her.
Realising all this made me see the reason behind the fast assembly and swift reaction of the military. They solved the chip problems fast enough and came here to rescue her.
And now I had to make a simple move and add her to my force. She wasn't just a single person, but a person holding the dedication of an entire army behind her.
Damn! How could my luck be so good?!! I hoped I wasn't going to jinx myself by thinking like that!
"Go and call her out then," I said in a bossy tone that made that major raise his eyebrows. "What? Do you even think she is going to be safe like that? I need to arrange things with the leader here, and it's obvious who she is, right?"
He hesitated before finally walking away. He couldn't resist my orders, or else I would simply leave. He saw with his two eyes how capable and strong I was.
If not for my warriors holding the frontline all by themselves by now, they would be eventually swarmed by monsters. They might be using strong and showy ways to stop the monsters for now.
But what about an hour later? A day later? Could they possibly have an open arsenal of ammunition for this operation? I hardly believed that!
As he retreated and vanished inside that station, I started to observe the overall situation. My warriors were giving the monsters what they deserved. However they couldn't route them back.
The sheer number of these monsters was simply amazing! I had no doubt now that the reason Queens looked this empty was thanks to the battle here.
The monsters were assembled from all over the city. It wouldn't be surprising if even the nearby counties' monsters were also called here. Only Manhattan stopped more to come, as my deeds over there came as a surprise for the angels.
I looked again at the sky to make sure there was no sneaky attack coming. I knew it would be impossible for the angels to drive such an attack soon, but I couldn't prevent myself from worrying about that.
Just in less than five minutes, that major returned with a young girl. She was almost the same height as me, shoulder by shoulder I believe.
As I looked at her, I couldn't help but feel a strange warmth inside my heart. She exuded such aura whenever she walked, just like the sweetest rose on earth.
Her elegant features were obvious from her face, despite thick layers of dust and ash covering her pretty face. Yet she was a beauty, I could vouch for that.
She seemed to inherit her great grandfather's pure blue eyes, forehead, and mouth. Yet she had a touch of asian genes appearing in her small nose, slit like lips, and petite oval face.
Her hair was grey white, with strands of blackness scattered in the middle. This wasn't the act of inheritance, only by dying her hair or under the effect of her abilities would she turn into that.
As she walked, I noticed her steps to be small, yet strangely covering the same distance at each step. She seemed to wear a tight black sparkling dress at the time of the apocalypse, but only fragments of it remained covering only her chest and waist.
Her body showed how much she struggled in the past day. I even saw white wrapping over her left calf like it was hiding an ugly wound.
As she got closer, I could finally get a clear and deep look at her eyes. She looked like a strong young girl coming from an elegant family, rich with etiquette. She seemed like someone holding his own very well in such dark times.
But when I looked at her eyes, I didn't feel any of that. She looked strong and proud, hard on the surface. Yet her eyes betrayed her and showed what she truly felt deep inside her heart.
She gave me the impression of being weak, terrified, and foremost… Lonely! I couldn't help but look around and ask myself: How can someone be surrounded by all these people and feel such loneliness?
"Hello, sir," as she got near me, she slightly bowed her head and said this greeting in a soft and angelic voice.
"Hi, I'm Hye," I said, "How are you feeling?"
I didn't know why I asked such a question. C'mon, I shouldn't have shown her my concern, not in such a frank and silly way!
*Bang!*
Just before she could say anything, a mighty hitting sound came from the direction of the ongoing battle, so intense that it made the entire ground underneath my feet shake.
"What is that?!!" Just as I turned to see what happened, I heard her gasping in shock.
I didn't see anything apart from my warriors and dragons to be worthy of such gasp. That shock came as a dragon of mine seemed to get tired of spraying his breaths over the monsters, and instead he fell on the ground and used his heavy body and high momentum to smash and crush any monster he met.
He left a long vacancy in the heart of the monster army. It was a good scene and such a nice tactic worthy of praise. "They are my little boys," I returned to her and said with a wide smile.
"Your… Little boys?" she pointed in their direction while her face told me how shocked and disbelieved she was. And I simply nodded.
"He brought monsters to fight for him," the major spoke and tried to explain things.
I glared at that thick headed major and decided to lose all hope in correcting this wronged belief of his.
They weren't monsters, they were races coming from fallen worlds. But who cared about his opinion anyway?
"Impressive," Karoline said in honest admiration, "so they follow your command?"
I nodded.. "I heard from the major about your current situation," I shifted the topic back to what we should be talking about, "but I want to speak alone with you about it."
