I Just want a Peaceful life

Chapter 824  Awaken

A few days after Angus forged the sword, he found his head on top of a soft, warm pillow. At once, he notices Jayna's smooth and soft lap.

"Urgh… I feel like having a long terrible dream." groaned Angus.

"Angus…" greet Jayna with a smile.

Seeing Jayna's bright and charming smile, Angus couldn't help but feel warm and happy. However, he also knows under this happy attitude lies a lot of worry and emotions. All of this could be felt through their strong [Allegiance] bond.

Angus also realizes many things through it. He realizes what truly happens after he uses the forbidden technique and lets out his inner beast. He never thought his forbidden technique really triggered his heritage chi.

This forbidden technique only made him more wild and revealed his inner beast during his previous life. At that time, he still did not have heritage chi.

Using this forbidden technique this time, he gambles after getting some clue from the spirit inside the heritage chi. Even now, he is unsure if he can trigger the heritage chi using the same method.

After cuddling to ease their worry and emotion, Angus and Jayna come out of their tent. Seeing Angus's appearance, the nearby Royal Guard flinched at his presence for a moment before slowly recovering.

"Master!!" called Brigida and Lilith respectfully.

"Thank you for your hard work these days." said Angus.

"It's my honor, Master." replied the two girls.

At the same time, his mind also works at full power to observe everyone without missing a single sign.

'As expected, all of them are affected by my aura, like in my past life. Fortunately, most of them have a minimal effect.' thought Angus.

Noticing Angus' appearance, a flash of red light appeared in front of him.

"Angus, Jayana!!" called Duchess Amberblaze.

*SHINNG* At once, Brigida and Lilith draw their weapons and point them at Duchess Amberblaze without hesitation.

"Another step and that traitorous neck will be gone." said Brigida while holding the channel lightning elemental into her halberd.

On the other hand, Lilith also draws her bow and points it at the Duchess. It is clear they are completely hostile toward the Duchess and will not hesitate to kill her.

"What do you want?" asked Angus coldly while ignoring the two girls' movements.

"I.. I am sorry. I know what I did is…" replied Duchess Amberblaze.

"Wrong? Stupid? Or what? Alright, enough of this charade. For King Leon's sake and our past relationship, I will forgive you this time. But, next time you betray me again for any reason, I will no longer show mercy." said Angus coldly.

As Angus said, Duchess Amberblaze had already retreated a few meters back in a cold sweat. Angus' words and presence deeply impact the Duchess despite not releasing any killing intent or malicious aura.

Angus ignored the Duchess' reaction and left the camp before approaching the ruined metallic tower.

"A-Angus..." called Duchess Amberblaze but stopped as the two maids coldly glared at her.

As for the nearby Royal Guards, they pretend not to see this confrontation for their own safety.

Meanwhile, the Red Queen Nabe inspects the ruined metal forging tower while touching a few scraps.

Noticing Angus's presence, Nabe asked, "Aren't you quite rude to a lady?" without looking back at Angus.

"The moment she sided with the opposite party, our good relationship had already ended." replied Angus.

'Especially for someone as close as her.' thought Angus inwardly.

Since being betrayed by his brother in his past life, Angus hates a traitor to the bone. However, those traitors from close people like his family impacted him more. With Jayna and Extalia's close relationship, Angus already thought of her as family.

This is why her last action deeply affected him. Jayna also knows Angus's thoughts and decides not to say anything about them. She may have a favorable impression of her aunt than her own mother.

But, she will definitely choose and support Angus as he is the one who sacrifices a lot of things for her and truly protects her.

"I assume you are not just going to leave this place untreated, right?" asked Nabe, changing the topic.

"Though it will return back over time. It is better to solve it as soon as possible. Can you let me through?" asked Angus.

"Sure," said Nabe while waving her hand, as she understood Angus's intention.

Suddenly, Angus feels the whole world become more gloomy and dreaded. It is as if death just passed in this place. Despite staying still in his spot, he could feel this drastic change. This also proves how sophisticated Nabe's barrier runes are.

Even with his [Analyze] and high intelligence, Angus barely grasped how this barrier and isolation magic worked. Ignoring the Nabe barrier, Angus focuses on the lingering malicious aura. At once, he touched the red ground with his hand while closing his eyes.

*WHOOSHH* The malicious aura gets absorbed into him as if it is tangible. Nabe could feel the drastic change in this lingering aura at a fast rate and surprise the young human.

After a while, the gloomy aura slowly diminished and was gone, leaving only the enchanted red frozen ground.

"Fiuuh… It's done." said Angus.

"Interesting… So, did you have any solution for the psychological side effect that everyone gets." said Nabe.

"I could only give them a prescription. As for a complete recovery, it depends on the person itself. If their will is strong enough, this incident will become a fortune for them. But, if they couldn't get over it, it would become a huge bottleneck." replied Angus.

"Interesting." replied Nabe again.

Finishing treating the leftover aura, Angus sends someone to inform the Duchess and King Leon about this matter. He also checks if everyone is getting more adverse effects on their psyche or body.

Angus knows his domain is not only a simple restrained domain or massive killing intent. In his past life, a few people somehow turned into abominations or got weird mutations when it is left alone.

It may have more variable effects if not treated early since this world is more magical than in Angus's previous life. While inspecting all the affected people, everyone notices an out-of-tune childish singing in the air.

"Meaty~ Witty~ Witty~ Lalala~" sang Anna while being carried by a white bat.

"Anna!!" called Jayna from below.

"Ahh… Mommy!!" called Anna back and rushed back to Jayna.

In the next moment, Anna already hugged Jayna excitedly.

"Mommy! Mommy Anna is hungry. Anna misses Mommy's food!!" said Anna.

"Gezz… Anna, you are such a little gluttony. Alright, Mommy will grill you some meat. Pork Meat?" replied Jayna while stroking the spoiled little gluttony.

"Yep. Porky Porky Meat is the best." said Anna excitedly.

"Wait.. Anna, who is that?" asked Angus from the side while pointing at the creature on her back.

"Ahh… This is Bitty. Isn't he super cute?" replied Anna, introducing the white bat behind her.

The white bat has a very unique body and color. Its body color is translucent with white and can hardly be detected in a white-colored environment, such as snowy ground. It also has a strange wing shape that looks rigid and delicate.

After looking carefully, Angus frowned and stepped back in surprise.

"This… Isn't this the legendary White Lucid bat?" asked Angus.

"Bitty is whity lucy bad? But, Bitty is Bitty." commented Anna back.

"No, Anna. It's a White Lucid Bat. It is one of the rare legendary spiritual creatures. The legend said that the White Lucid Bat is a powerful spiritual creature that could take over anyone, be it a beast, monster, or people."

"Because of this ridiculous ability, White Lucid Bat is tough to detect and find, especially in the snowy area. Anna, where did you find it?" asked Jayna in worry.

"Anna finds Bitty… Ermm… There?" replied Anna while pointing at the distant cloud storm.

"*Sigh* Thought so." said Angus as he already expected such an answer.

"Anna is too lazy to move around. Then, the cute Bitty came and helped Anna fly around." said Anna casually.

If it is said by anyone else, no one will believe such a story since White Lucid Bat is famous for taking over other people's bodies. However, Angus and Jayna know Anna's story may be the truth or not far from it.

"There are others… Wait.. Where is Moopi? Alpis? Pana?" exclaimed Anna while looking around.

"Err…" replied everyone speechlessly.

After inquiring further, Angus finds Anna has entered many sub-dimensions with ice and snowy ground inside the bottomless basin. He suspects this sub-dimension is the same as the Everwhite territory. It is the by-product of Losvertisch.

Unlike the outer world, the degree of fire elemental absorption is many times stronger inside. As a result, the ice elemental is denser than the outside, possibly creating many sub-dimensions.

According to Anna's random words, these sub-dimensions are connected and have various shapes. One could be massive snowy ground. One could be an icy cold maze. Others could be vast open spaces with multiple ice terrains.

Furthermore, there are not only monsters and Gram living in this place. There are also countless types of ice beasts staying in these sub-dimensions. Unlike the monsters, these ice elemental beasts are more territorial and rarely come out from it.

Unexpectedly, these beasts could live alongside the Gram or other ice elemental monsters inside. In short, it is the best place for ice-elemental creatures, be they beasts or monsters.
