I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

Chapter 1074 Loranʼs Punishment

“Do you mean… This staff of mine wipes out its saved bookmarks when changing owners?” a realisation flashed by my eyes, “take it then. Check if the bookmarks you saved are there or not.”

I tossed the staff over and once he grabbed it, he remained silent before a sigh of relief could be heard. “It’s saved there, all is there.”

“Great,” it was something new even for me about my staff, “wait until I’m done. Then you can open a portal for the two of us to jump over.”

“Ok.”

Lucas stayed by my side silent while I kept working. Just as I was done, I casually asked:

“How big are our losses? Don’t tell me we lost a lot!”

“Lord… We didn’t have you!”

“It’s not an excuse!”

I glared at him before adding, “I can accept losses, but to a certain limit. Exceed it and you two will get demoted! How much did we lose?”

“Lord… We lost ten percent so far,” seemingly fazed by my words, he staggered a step or two before adding in a weak tone.

Ten percent? Well… It wasn’t that bad.

“Good, try to not exceed this limit,” I warned, “I’ll give you reinforcements as well as the remaining forces of the other killed lords to help.”

“But…”

“What?” I looked at the distance, “open a portal first and let’s not waste more time.”

Once he opened a portal, I moved through and appeared at a new place. It was a land without an owner, with lots of forces standing on guard and many were standing idle without moving a finger.

“Tell me what’s up then,” I looked at the remaining forces of the dead lord before adding, “you got enough forces to support!”

“Well… In my case that’s true. But…”

“But what?” I went to execute the absorption technique before grabbing the mysterious cube after gaining the weird mark as long as many bones from the dead were around.

“Loran… She overdid it!”

I turned to him before sighing. “I’ll meet her up when we arrive at her main army… Let’s go to the next spot.”

“But…”

“But what? Why are you growing fond of words all of sudden?!!” I said in displeasure while passing through the next portal.

“Lord… She knew you’d be mad so she took her leave first.”

“Did what?”

“She went up ahead to battle another lord, saying that she isn’t free to meet lord yet.”

“…”

My eyes twitched before my mind found the perfect punishment for such a despicable personality.

“Tell her this, I will only grant soulers and they’ll work under you from now on. Only the forces she’d have after killing those lords will act as her support. And in the end, the one who will give me more lands will be promoted.”

“This…”

“Just deliver my message over, and tell her I’m not free to meet up with her yet,” I jumped off my chariot, went down to execute my absorption technique before taking up all the bones, the mark from the lord’s dead corpse, alongside the cube.

Trying to act cheap on me like that? Who was the one serving the other? What a foolish girl!

I was the lord here, the one who’d grant others forces not the other way around. Trying to fool with me? I’d instantly f*ck you over!

“It’s done,” the mission that’d take roughly a few days to be done before ended in less than one hour. “Come out!” Instantly I summoned five million soulers, to have two and half just appearing here.

“Lead them well,” I said to Lucas, “let’s return back. Then you are going to gather up your scattered forces before going out again.”

“Got it lord…” he opened a portal and I simply passed through it. Just as I was about to vanish, he couldn’t help but shout:

“What if she asked for my help?”

“Ignore her!” I decisively said before vanishing through the portal.

Helping someone who acted arrogantly and foolishly with me? That’s a joke!

I knew that she was still not used to her new status. And this small lesson would help to wake her up.

“Time to finish this… What the heck?!!” just as I arrived here, and just before I’d start doing anything, I noticed something amiss.

My land… It grew bigger! Damn! I forgot that adding twenty lands to it would increase its size.

Before, my walls were the horizon of my land. But now? Just being close to the western zone made me see clearly that my land stretched outside for teens of miles away from the walls.

If this kept going on, wouldn’t I have to keep building forever? Damn!

After accepting such fate, I resumed building again.

Luckily, I used a grander version of everything and that saved me the trouble to look for Loran for now. This girl had to be disciplined, and looking for her and waiting to draw more designs would take much time.

I took half a day to finish up the remaining buildings inside my walls. Then I went outside and resumed building.

I treated this wall as the inner wall of my grand city. More walls would be later added, and that would give a grander look for my land.

I just hoped to be able to have time and ability to build another tower before my time was up. I have less than two weeks left, and hopefully I’ll be able to finish everything in time.

It wasn’t just limited to the time I needed for building, but also for the size of my land.

And that meant I had to depend as well over the performance of these two out there. I hoped my punishment would entice more energy in Loran, not causing other side effects like getting lazy or holding grudges.

The visit from Lucas was repeated just two days later. It took him five days this time to come seeking me out.

And he didn’t disappoint me, nor did Loran. This girl turned fiercer when she heard about what I imposed over as a punishment.
