I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

That wasn't enough for Hye. He couldn't just rely on such a hypothesis to secure his escape. If it was another race, he'd think about disguising his ship as part of the Selvator fleets and make the other force mistake him as part of the Selvators.

This was the Toranks race he was going against, and he was quite famous in that race. The higher ups would definitely spot his identity from the unique way he'd use it in fighting.

He instantly dropped disguising as one of the Selvators and started considering other options. "The nearest portal lies a few days away from the place of battle… So dangerous…"

He searched the entire area looking for a portal that could get him as far away from here as possible. But the place the Selvator picked wasn't that close to any portal except for this one. And that portal was a bit problematic.

It was an entity of a merchant group. From the surface it looked easy to get access to, but when he did little research, he found out that the group was supported by the Hescos.

"The Hescos… Interesting!" Hye didn't find any mention before of any Hescos fleets around the region. This wasn't surprising as the entire thing was planned by the Selvators, and the Hescos wouldn't place themselves in such troublesome confrontation for the sake of others.

But when he found out about this portal, his viewpoint about this changed. It seemed the Hescos would join the battle through this portal as it was owned by them. And that meant trying to get out using this portal was suicidal!

On top of that the presence of the deadliest enemies for him in this battle at any given moment was a very risky factor. On top of that, he had zero intel about how many fleets they'd send, or when they'd even appear in the battle.

They might wait for someone to pick the valuable thing in the caravan, and then attack him and get it. "A headache!" he couldn't help but sigh deeply after thinking about this hidden threat.

The Hescos weren't the top race in the world out of nothing. Their expected intervention made him wary of this battle. And now he had another threat he had to consider while running away.

The closest portal after this one was around ten days away! And that wasn't a good portal to pick. "If I went through the closest one, it's not just about the Hescos forces appearing out of it, but the portal will be linked mostly to a region they control… Tsk!"

On the caravan side, there was a race who was previously his ally and turned him over. And on the escape route path, there was a race who badly wanted to see him dead.

The situation was getting tougher and tougher, making him unable to make a decision right away. Hye knew if he got to the far away portal, then both races would chase and corner him.

"Unless…" Before he'd felt any panic, he saw the situation entirely from a totally different angle, "the intervention of the Hescos isn't known to anyone yet. That means I can use that to my advantage…"

Without intending to, he decided to use the same way the Selvators at the entire trap on. "To do it, I need to leave few eyes close to that portal…"

The key of his final plan was timing. He needed to start when the Hescos would go out from the portal. And so, he started to relay orders to the closest warriors to the portal region.

There was no other escape route better than that portal. As for the Hescos allied forces on the other side, he was sure he'd find a way to get out from there.

"Let me worry about that when I arrive there," he muttered to himself, while reviewing his final plan.

The plan started with him wanting to outpace the Selvators to the caravan's precious cargo. But now, it looked as if he was already actively participating in this war, as if he was one side in this war.

Even when things escalated to such a degree, he never shared any with the pirate king or the lady nymph. Even if the entire plan evolved, their role was still the same.

The date of the promised war was drawing close day by day. The caravan was getting closer to the predetermined area of battle. And with every day passing, tension seemed to rise in all races and forces tagging along.

"Someone must lose his cool by now," Hye was in his ship, observing and reviewing the reports coming from the other two. At the same time, he was still observing the Selvator fleets hidden in the asteroid belts.

The caravan was around three up to five days away from the right place of battle. And yet it wasn't that far away from that spot. Hye expected many greedy folks would start to have dreams about obtaining the precious cargo before anyone else.

As he expected, few started to move, mainly from the underground world. Those pirates and villains were greedy in nature, and having such fierce opponents was placing more pressure over them.

The moment few of them moved, more started to do the same as well. Hye refused the request from the other two to move or take part in these skirmishes.

"They'll all lose," Hye was pretty confident about that, "let the weak flies burn first. At least we'll know how strong the Toranks fleets are, and what they prepared for the big battle coming ahead…"

Hye asked the pirate king and lady nymph to keep a close eye on any report regarding the ongoing small fights. He let these two handle this task, while he returned to do his normal tasks.

So far he managed to locate and pinpoint almost sixty percent of the supposedly Selvator fleets surrounding the upcoming battle area. The missing spots were thanks to being too far away, and his ships still didn't get there.
