I Just want a Peaceful life

Chapter 29: Bonding Time

Few hours have passed since the noble's meeting began. After a while of heated discussion, the king that had been silent since the start of the meeting finally stood up.

"Alright, it seems it's getting late. Let's end this meeting." Said the King Leon.

After that one of the nobility asked politely, "Pardon me, My liege. You still have not chosen your companion to go towards Roundel."

"Did I? Then, I will choose Duke Victory and Marquish Leroy to accompany me to go towards Roundel." replied casually.

Both the duke and marquish immediately respond, "As you wish, My liege."

"Alright, since it's decided let's end this meeting. Good night everyone." Said King Leon casually while leaving the room.

'Then, for what we get heat discussion all this time.' As this thought appeared in everyone's mind except the dukes.

Still the nobles could only swallow this silently before leaving the room dejectedly at their king's antics.

The Hearth king has very eccentric behaviour. Sometimes he likes to be playful like this but a moment later he could execute a random noble just because they speak a little bit too loud.

However, everyone respects him, even the corrupt noble will say that he is worthy as king. All of this because he is a legendary figure of a 7th grade king that is more rare than finding a legendary unicorn.

Especially his deed where he obliterated a small kingdom by himself in one day. Because of this, the heart kingdom rose to become the strongest kingdom among the human race.

7th grade is the pinnacle power in this world and among the 7th grade being King Leon himself is among the strong one.

As for the other noble that want to plot against him is basically non-existent. In front of absolute power, no matter how many tricks the others have, it is useless.

Therefore there is almost no turmoil or rebelion inside the kingdom that has 7th grade as leader. The strength of these powerful beings is akin like a god that is walking among mortals.

The only reason why King Leon carefully picked the trustful aide during this trip is because the only one that could kill and beat a 7th grade being is the other 7th grade being.

So, although this gathering is happening in the most strongest and peaceful city. It is also at the same time the most dangerous place gathering for him.

After the end of the meeting, Duke Victory also went back to his manor. He needed to prepare for many things before leaving with the king to Roundel city.

Arriving at his manor, he immediately went towards the underground room while asking the staff to call Angus.

The underground room is a huge room that is enchanted with various strong enchantments. It could be said the room is one of the safest places beside the grand palace in the capital city.

Entering the room, the duke began to think again about Angus's behaviour. No matter how much he thought about his son, he always felt that his son was an enigma.

Even after his strength increased to 6th grade, he still cannot see the truth about his son. With the situation where he will go to dangerous meetings at the roundel city, he becomes more restless.

While thinking this, Angus arrived at the room, "Ehh.. I don't know we have this stupidly huge room under the manor." As Angus rudely commented to show his disasstification being called this late.

After Angus medicates his father, he becomes more casual to his father than before. Moreover, Angus hated the noble stature and thought of it as nothing but troublesome etiquette.

Living a few years as a high noble, Angus understands that noble ethics is nothing but a false facade. This teaching is contradictory with his principle as a martial artist where he needs to become true to himself.

Hearing Angus rude comment, "Haa.. forget it, Angus do you know why called you here?" asked the Duke.

'How would I know? you are the one that is calling me here for god sake!! That's it I am leaving!' Grumble Angus as he thought a way to silently go away from this room.

Suddenly, the duke commanded, "Shadow Guard, protect this room and don't let anyone bother us until further notice."

The duke's shadow immediately moved and closed the entrance door. Looking at this, Angus could only sigh silently.

"Now, there are only two of us. Angus, how did you know about how to treat my wound?" asked the duke seriously.

"I read it in the book." Angus lies blatantly.

Hearing about Angus lie, 'Damn brat, If it is that easy then there is no way the casualty from high level monster is still high.' Curse Angus inwardly.

"Haa… Forget it. Angus, the king asked me to accompany him to Roundel city." [Jacob]

"Okay… So?" replied Angus expressionlessly.

"Actually, I don't know until when I will be going. It could be only a few weeks or a long time. But, before leaving I want to know more about my own son." as the duke said seriously.

"O-Okay.. then what…" Before he finishes his sentence he feels a blunt force hit him. *Bam*

Angus immediately flew towards the wall.

"That's why I decided we have a little sparring. The rules are simple, all you need to do is land one hit to me. Until then we will continue our little spar. So, what do you say Angus?" As the duke instacast five [Firebolt] towards Angus at fast speed. *Bam* *Bam* *Bam*

[Beast Walk] Angus instantly avoided the firebolt. "Damn old man, Did you want to kill your own son?!"

"Hooo… But, you're still alive, aren't it?" as duke Jacob keeps summoning more and more [Firebolt] towards Angus. *Bam* *Bam* *Bam*

Angus didn't have any choice but keep dodging the incoming [Firebolt]. Still the incoming attack becomes harder to avoid as it comes endlessly.

"Come on Angus, we can do this all day unless you land a hit on me." Said the duke
