I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse-Chapter 1839: How Did You Do It?

"You… You have a big appetite," Moth tried to squeeze his head, tried to find a way out of this situation, to not end up losing everything he aimed for, "why not check these then? We provided a few such technological secrets there…"

"I need the right to trade for the secrets I want," Hye interrupted Moth, before dragging the seat Olana sat over, placing both legs over it, "I can tell this is something you can't decide on your own. So why not make your calls and see what others think?"

"..."

Moth started to see the arrogant side that he had never seen before from Hye. He didn't need to ask to know this was how this human used to deal with the Toranks.

He knew the real value of what he was trading with, which was why he asked for such an extravagant price and in such a daring attitude.

"I don't blame him," Moth inwardly sighed, "I'd blame the system for favouring someone unknown to all of the big races in the universe."

Even if he felt a little displeased with Hye, Moth didn't hesitate to send the message to his friends and other leaders in the Hescos' upper echelon.

He didn't even send words alone, and added a recording that he had since the moment he met with Hye.

"Let's order something as we wait," unlike what Hye expected, Moth was acting carefree. He sat opposite him and even started to navigate through the menu this place provided. "That dish, the purple turlinash with ferabino pasta, is super delicious! Let's have a few alongside a big roasted bullthornedo."

"Honestly, I don't know what you are talking about," Hye's casual and funny remark came as a little surprise to Moth, "but yes, order me the same as you. Let me taste the cosine of the universe cosine."

"You telling me you never tasted anything outside your world's dishes?!!" Moth was surprised, and yet Hye never ate anything outside, rarely drank a few cups here and there. Whenever he travelled, he kept eating from his rations, the ones he had replenished constantly by his wives through the help of the system.

"You know what? Let's order all the dishes in the menu," Moth sounded like he had gone crazy, "I can't let such a crime pass uncorrected! Everything is in the house, so don't worry. As for the meals, they can be preserved like new in the system menu…"

Moth started to speak about the meals, how they were made, what made their taste special, what spices could be used as side dishes to add more to the taste, and such stuff. After a few minutes, Hye didn't need anyone to tell him if Moth wasn't a mighty leader in the Hescos, he would have grown up to be a universe renowned chef!

Hye sat in his seat without saying anything, watching Moth giving lots of orders to the chefs responsible for this place.

"I'm telling you, you need to prepare yourself." After Moth finished his long order, he turned to Hye, "you will be surprised by how delicious these meals are!"

"Ok," Hye didn't know how this mighty leader was so attached to eating. Yet everyone needed a hobby, and this perhaps was better than any sadistic hobbies he heard wealthy people on Earth before the apocalypse used to have.

"As we are waiting," Moth suddenly said, "for both the grand meal and the response from home about your request, let me ask you this… How the hell did you do it?"

"Did what?" Hye couldn't tell what this old monster meant by his vague words.

"How did you build a base in the universe this fast!" Moth was truly puzzled by this, very curious to hear the answer. He didn't know if the Toranks were aware of what Hye did or not, but he felt like they were kept in the shadows about this.

Or else, knowing how they dealt with Hye as a potential threat, they would prefer to hit him early on and not give him the chance to grow. And yet he never heard of any such campaign, not to mention his spies in the Toranks never mentioned anything related to Hye's base in the universe.

"Who said I have a base out there?" Hye decided to play the fool, not even confessing to doing it.

"Come on," Moth paused, "you don't take me as an idiot, ok? You can't have achieved all this if you don't have a base you secured for yourself in the universe."

"This…" 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

"And before you give me the crap of your post-apocalyptic world, I don't buy it. You know your world is tightly watched by many forces, us included. And if a single ship got out of it, we would all have heard about it."

"Well," Hye wasn't forced to answer this question, "it's a secret."

"Then… Won't you share with me?" Moth was ready to pay anything in return for this information, "I'm willing to even sign a contract of confidentiality to make you feel comfortable about it!"

"Contracts… Are like deals, they are meant to be broken one day," Hye snorted, "no offence, but I prefer to hold my secrets tight to my chest than entrusting them to someone else."

"Then… How about I pay for it?" Moth tried a different approach, "I can handle a separate deal, a private one, between the two of us, away from anyone else…"

"Just drop it," Hye sighed, "I won't announce anything until I see the timing is right."

"Tsk," Moth sounded like he got disappointed by Hye's answer, "yet… Can you promise me that you'll share this first with me when that time comes?"

"For a proper price, yes," Hye didn't object this time, in fact, he saw it would be more profitable if he shared this news with Moth before the world.

By the time he would do that, it wouldn't matter if Moth kept the secret to himself or shared it.
