[The one that happened many hours ago? Ah I forgot about that time difference. Ok, send them then. We are expecting a huge monster outbreak soon anyway]

[Why huge?]

[Because someone scared the sh*t out of them and made the monster outbreak end early. So they are gathering up and will come in larger forces this time]

[I see] it wasnt my fault! Listen up, we are going towards a huge fighting place. Youll lead forces there. Prove yourselves and youll get what I promised.

I then turned to Alex and decided to take her with me.

What is this place? as we got on my chariot, she managed to see a grander scene of this world.

Mountains, paths with cities and towns at the far reach of our eyes, an ocean, and an ocean of forces fighting at the horizon This was what she saw and I kept my silence for a few minutes while leading my chariot in the front at slow speed.

Its my world, I said, it has an awesome feature of time difference from Earth. Here twenty hours will equal one on Earth.

This

Dont take my world wrong, it has forests, lots of nice places to see and visit. Yet this is my training camp, the place where my armies are born.

She remained silent, not out of shock and surprise, but out of self blaming.

Yes, she got that face of someone regretting not being part of all this. She realised now part of what she missed, helping out my people and hers to live in such peace and prosperity.

I didnt go directly towards the shores, instead I took the soldiers and her in a detour, passing through a few towns and cities, making them see how nice people were living here.

You brought different races as well? she noticed this and I smiled and let her watch further, and this Isnt there an apocalypse going on here?

She finally got it! No, this world Its just like our Earth before the time of the apocalypse.

This

And the apocalypse wont hit it here.

She didnt need to question my words. I said these in such firm and confidence, making her believe me no matter how hard it was to do so, no matter how unrealistic such words were.

But I wasnt lying. Apocalypse wouldnt hit here thanks to the special nature of my world. Besides, would these higher ups dare to find a way to bring an apocalypse here?

Humph! I would go all out and use all my might to crush everything and control the other worlds and races taking part if this ever happened.

No, they werent this crazy. Doing this was pointless. So I said those words with deep belief in what I said.

This seeing the grand battlefield from far was something, and inspecting it from such close distance was another.

Her widened eyes told me she got what I wanted, she got how humans were fighting for their survival while she was staying back, far behind, enjoying peace brought over by others.

Dont take her wrong, she wasnt the type to enjoy such life, not like that jerk. She risked her life and even accepted death once before when there was no one by her side, where there was no hope.

Such a fierce soul wouldnt succumb to rest or peace when others were suffering for her. I saw her body trembling, making me nod in satisfaction.

Wait here and someone will come to deploy you, I shouted at my soldiers, before turning to Alex and faking not knowing what she was thinking about, lets go. Ill drop you off at one of the safe and rare cities here.

I said the word peace on purpose, trying to stir her up. She looked at me and seemingly what I said made her aroused back to reality.

No!

No What?! I faked my surprise and lack of understanding.

I wont go there, drop me here, let me fight with all of them.

This I feigned how difficult and sudden this was.

I cant sit back when others are fighting like this! I know I got demoted, so let me lead fresh forces, just like other soldiers.

She pointed back at the ground where my ten thousand soldiers were dispersing under the guidance of those sent by Lily.

[There is another general who needs an army with me. But take good care of her, she was away from this for a long time]

And without saying anything back to Alex, I opened the chat window with Lily and sent these words, letting Alex listen to what I said from the side.

This But Alexs eyes trembled when she heard my words. As for Lily, she was happy to get a new general without doubt.

[Great! Send her over, Im at the north of where you are]

[Good]

I then closed the chat with her and opened my inventory. There I kept a few of my chariots stored for times like these.

Take this, I took the chariot out and let it appear next to mine, its yours from now on.

This Sign! How long did I stay away from you? and as she knew there was no point in dissuading me, she sighed and shook her head, releasing more about what she lost while staying with that jerk.

Go, and dont make me regret it.

I Wont, she said in such a way that told me she already made up her mind.

She would fight alongside us, alongside humans, fight for our survival and prosperity, the way she should have been doing for a long time if not for that jerk.

I delivered her to the chariot and watched her pick up a group of a hundred soldiers from down below. It seemed she knew their abilities and got to know who deserved an instant promotion.

I didnt step in or prevent her. If she needed them all, she could have them without doubt.
