I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse-Chapter 1437 Are You Afraid?
"What's the feather for?" I felt weird for him to do such a thing while introducing himself. It was funny actually, and that was why I had to ask.
"It's the prime feather of the flying Gorgons, one of the fiercest foes I ever met in my apocalyptic trial," he said, and from his weird words I could tell one thing.
That dude wasn't part of my apocalypse, and that meant his stats were much higher than mine!
"Are you afraid?" He seemed to do it on purpose, giving such hints about his origins.
"If I want you all dead, all I need to do is snap my fingers," I laughed, while answering without any speck of worry.
I wasn't lying or trying to put a strong front here. In my chariot, no matter who was here, he or she would get their asses kicked if they tried something funny.
And if they got outside my chariot, they'd end up having lots of dangers waiting for them. Surviving wasn't guaranteed, and they'd lose their lives in less than one minute.
"Interesting," from my simple response, he could tell that I wasn't bluffing, "I heard lots of things about you, but it seems they are all wrong." 𝘧𝑟𝘦𝒆w𝚎𝙗nov𝘦𝗹.𝐜o𝓶
"Oh, how so?" I raised one eyebrow before he explained:
"I heard you are arrogant and weak without any right to feel so. I heard that your victory over our kids out there came thanks to the support from the filthy Toranks."
"And?"
"You have all the rights to act so," he pointed towards his feather before adding, "formidable foes are the ones who deserve my full respect and attention. But a word of advice, don't be my enemy or else you might end up being like that dude, a mere feather on top of my head."
"Thanks for the kind reminder," I calmly smiled, responding to the same threats with another, "If we ever met in a battlefield, I promise you to make a nice helmet out of your suit and wear it all the time."

The two of us kept glaring at each other while the atmosphere looked like it was going to explode at any second. I didn't care about what they felt, right now they needed me, and I needed them.
We both might be called enemies, but it wasn't that bad actually to put aside our hostilities and act friendly for the little time we had here.
"You are indeed interesting," after a few minutes of silence, he finally spoke up, "it's quite unfortunate for you to not be in my apocalyptic trial. Or else things would turn out quite fortunate and amusing for me."
"I can't argue with that," I paused as I felt something was amiss.
And the next instant, a deadly explosion erupted, making the entire world around tremble and change.
Rocks started to fly out and fall all over the place, while many hit my chariot.
The worms that went all calm and silent under the ground for five minutes finally started to act.
And from the look of it, they were having a fierce and bloody battle between each other.
"Worms… They are fighting among themselves!" one of Toramos' men muttered while the dude himself kept his silence.
I felt his gaze falling on me, and that told me he already guessed it.
"They are my boys," I pointed towards that scary scene, "and they are trying to take the enemies' down."
"This…"
"Did you say they are yours?"
"Is this what makes humans special? Makes you special? The ability to control and breed worms?"
"Damn! That's why our kids lost against you!"
I heard such weird exclamations and words. They jumped to the wrong conclusions, and I couldn't help but inwardly laugh.
"Silence!" Toramos seemed to not like what his dudes were saying, or just didn't agree with such nonsense, "so they are under your control?"
"They are, why? Do you need one as a gift?"
"If you are willing, then I'm willing."
"Thanks, but let's just keep working here in such a way…" I paused, before pointing towards the entire place here, "this is just a small part of my strength here. I brought little of my forces to this quest, and I want you to work for me."
"Work for you?"
"Damn! You have big dreams, man!"
"Humph! Last time I met a human, he served me and I didn't serve him!"
"Stop this nonsense or else I'll fight you right now to die…"
*Bang!*
The moment one of them stepped forward, issued such a hostile comment towards me, I didn't hesitate to activate the chariot's control ability and threw him off this place.
This dude flew high in the air, and even before he'd fly for a hundred metres away, he ended up in the belly of one of the giant worms.
No one knew if he got eaten by the worms of the enemies, but they all saw how his death came fast and swift. He couldn't even put up a single struggle and ended up dead against such a formidable foe.
"I won't tolerate any of such attitude again," I slowly said, moving my eyes around before adding, "all I wanted is to come here and gain access to your zone. If you don't like it, then be my guest, go out and try to survive on your own."
"You…"
"Silence!" Toramos spoke up again, silencing his friend and follower from repeating the same deadly mistake of threatening me.
We might be called enemies, and they might think about how to bring me down. But they shouldn't forget how bad their situation here was.
They were going to survive this if they stuck to me, going to die without any exception if they just took a single step out.
"We can surrender, and you won't get any help from us," that dude called Toramos was something else. He could already read through my real intentions, read far ahead than anyone else here ever did.
