I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

Chapter 1855: Distributing the Grand Loot

”What?!” Her eyes went wide, and for a split second, she thought she saw an opening. Of course, she thought, her mind racing. He wants to use me. Heʼll give me a mission, send me out of this world, and then Iʼll escape. Heʼs careless!

”Oh, of course,” she purred, bowing low. ”Iʼll do anything for you, my mighty human lord.”

Hye raised an eyebrow at the ”mighty lord” title. He realised it was likely the influence of Lucas and the others.

Before they had dispersed to their posts, his generals had saluted him with their usual, fanatical devotion. He made a mental note to have a very stern talk with Lucas about the image they were projecting to outsiders.

Olanaʼs thoughts were already miles away. Iʼll play the submissive servant, let him send me on a courier mission, and the moment I hit a neutral sector, Iʼm gone! Hehe!

Then, Hye dropped the hammer.

”I want you to head out to the training fields. I need someone with an objective eye to monitor the efficiency of the new warrior batches and the monster-cull rates. Youʼll report directly to me.”

Olana stood motionless for several minutes, her jaw dropping. Then, she exploded. ”What do you take me for?! I am a princess of the merchant guilds! I am not your servant to go and count heads in a muddy training camp out there!”

”Thatʼs the mission,” Hye said with a shrug, his attention already drifting back to his resource lists.

”I think you misunderstand. Iʼm not letting you leave this world to perform tasks in the universe. You stay here, under my eye, until I decide otherwise. If you want to eat and have a bed in this palace, youʼll earn it by counting warriors. Now, go.”

He didnʼt even look up to see her reaction. He had already moved on to the next problem, leaving Olana to realise that her ”prison” now had a job description.

Hye had read the flicker of calculation in Olanaʼs eyes as easily as an open book. He watched the realisation of her captivity sink in, effectively shattering her fantasies of a quick escape with a few well-placed words.

”Itʼs simple,” he stated, his voice flat and devoid of emotion. ”Either you remain here, seated and silent in this hall, or you go and perform the task Iʼve assigned. Choice is yours, but idling is no longer an option.”

He dismissed her presence entirely after that, turning his focus back to the staggering inventory screens floating before him.

As he began to categorise the mountains of goods he had extracted from the Hescos, even he had to suck in a cold breath of air.

The sheer volume was almost incomprehensible. He had effectively ripped the Hescos clean, securing a deal that he doubted would ever be replicated in his lifetime.

He had traded for the accumulated ”trash” of a sovereign race and turned it into the bedrock of a new human era.

The only sting was the cost. As he looked at his bone reserves, he saw that he had exhausted nearly half of his total treasury. His stock of high-grade Dark Realm bones had been depleted to a concerning level.

If he hadnʼt possessed the foresight to pivot toward paying with billions of normal-grade bones halfway through the negotiation, the financial blow would have been catastrophic.

”Yet, itʼs all worth it,” he whispered to the empty hall, a mantra to steady his pulse. ”Every bone spent is a seed planted. First things first—Iʼll distribute the specific requests before I dive into the blueprints and secret technologies.”

”What are you talking about?” Olana muttered, her confusion finally overriding her pride. She watched him move his hands through the air, shifting invisible icons with the practised ease of a god.

She couldnʼt see his interface, but she could sense the massive displacement of energy every time he ”sent” an item.

She realised, with a sinking feeling of regret, that she had missed the deal of the century. If only she hadnʼt been so focused on her own vanity back at the resort, she might have overheard the specifics of what he and Moth had bartered.

While Olana was left to her spiralling thoughts, Hyeʼs digital presence was screaming across his kingdom.

He began flooding the private channels of his inner circle with the goods they had requested, but he didnʼt stop there. He accompanied every shipment with a rigorous set of orders.

He laid out the timeline with brutal clarity: they had exactly one month.

In that window, they were racing against a clock that didnʼt care for their exhaustion.

Hye summarised the pact with the Hescos, making it clear that they were no longer just a local power—they were about to become a cosmic player.

He demanded that every department head—Karoline, Lily, Legend, and the others—draft a comprehensive plan for the next thirty days and the subsequent years of his absence.

He sent tens of thousands of artificial planets to Karoline. It was a logistical nightmare that would have broken any other administrator.

He tasked her with the immediate terraforming of their barren sectors, asking her to lay these worlds in a strategic defensive web that would transform their territory from a series of outposts into a true interstellar fortress.

For the military, he turned to Lily and Legend. He flooded their inventories with hundreds of billions of warrior tokens, an army so vast it could occupy entire star systems. But he didnʼt want raw numbers; he wanted elites.

”Train them on cultivation,” his orders read. ”No exceptions.”

He sent mountains of U.stat crystals to facilitate this growth, ensuring his officers had the resources to push their soldiers toward the ”Level 1 Cap.”

From his conversations with Moth, Hye knew the terrifying truth: many of the systemʼs automated features—the ”training wheels” of the apocalypse—would be stripped away once they reached the Outer Battlefield.

If his warriors werenʼt at peak physical and spiritual condition before the jump, they wouldnʼt survive the first hour.
