I Just want a Peaceful life

828  Powerful Swordmaster and Beautiful Melody

While everyone raises their vigilance towards their surroundings, Angus' shadow suddenly wriggles for a moment. *SWISH* *SPLAT* A muffled sound is heard from his shadow. This happens for a split second before returning to ordinary black shadow.

Angus only glanced at his shadow for a moment before shrugging it off. He knows another assailant is hiding in the shadows, trying to sneak in. Fortunately, a legendary Mundus is living in his shadow.

Trying to attack Angus from the shadow is only a suicide movement as it is Draven's territory. No one could win against Draven when fighting inside his shadow unless it was the seventh grade or another Mundus.

As the legendary beast specializing in space and darkness, Draven lives in Angus' shadow and modifies it to suit himself.

It could be said that Angus' shadow became an independent space dimension for Draven. Invading this shadowy place is like fighting against a god inside their own creation land.

Ignoring all the past assailants, Angus focuses more on the road ahead of them. After clearing the previous obstacle, the land is full of craters and uneven craters. Fortunately, this terrain is not a problem for the mobile fortress Alkin.

At this moment, another armored person stands still in the front, not far from the previous rubble. The armor is vastly different from the usual knight full metal armor. It resembles the traditional swordmaster or samurai armor from Angus' past life.

Despite only one person, the armored person gives an unexplainable chill aura. It is an aura that only strong people would exude. Moreover, Angus also couldn't see through this particular armored person.

'He can shrug off my Vulcan Shots like nothing.' thought Angus inwardly.

However, he is confident the person is strong as he wears some artifact-grade items. Artifacts are not only rare but also hard to use. Most people could only hold one or two artifacts before reaching their limit.

If someone could wear a few artifact-grade items, it shows they have strong talent or potential to hold the burden. In short, the armored person in front of them is powerful. There is even a possibility for him to be at a seventh-grade level.

"Fire!!" ordered Viscount Waterhell.

A round of magic cannon and projectile attacks were launched at the armored person. Facing such an attack, the person didn't move at all. *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* Suddenly, the attack exploded mid-air as if hitting an invisible barrier.

"A barrier?" said Viscount Waterhell.

"No. Before the attack explodes, the man moves his hand at a fast speed. He should be a sword expert. Lilith, shoot hit down." said Angus from the side.

*BWUNG* *BWUNG* *BWUNG* When Lilith heard Angus' words, she immediately released dozens of mana arrows. *BAM* *BAM* *BAM* Same as before, the mana arrow exploded before reaching the man.

Lilith wasn't discouraged and kept shooting her arrow before drawing a powerful concentrated mana arrow [Bow Art - Arbalist Blast]. *BWUNG* A giant powerful arrow released and swiftly traveled in the air, faster than her previous arrow.

*BANG* The armored person and the giant arrow clash momentarily before the man breaks it with his sword. Still, the man was forced to retreat back a few meters away. During this time, Angus frowned at the armor as he could feel the person's real strength.

'Seventh grade? No, it should be just one step away from it.' thought Angus inwardly.

Glancing at the busy Duchess Amberblaze in the distance, he decides to fight this person personally. Such a person is too dangerous for others to handle. If they are not careful, the whole Alkin will be destroyed along with the others.

At that time, the Heart Kingdom may receive a considerable loss. Besides, he is confident their fight will not go unnoticed by King Leon. It will not be long before King Leon appears and helps him.

Furthermore, their place is pretty close to Frostfall City. There are a lot of troops stationed for reinforcement.

Just as Angus wanted to move, "This is a good opportunity. Angus, take care of Anna." Jayna said before leaving Anna to Angus's care.

Brigida suddenly rushed forward while covered with strong lightning.

"Huh?!!" said Angus.

Unfortunately, his words fell on deaf ears as Jayna also rushed forward, following Brigida under Lilith's fire cover. Realizing Jayna's intent, Angus could only shake his head helplessly.

His beloved girl intends to use this opportunity to test her new sword and phoenix power. As for Brigida and Lilith, they are also silently commanded by Jayna.

Unlike Angus, Jayna is more suitable using [Allegiance] as Fire Phoenix. She could easily rely silently on her command and power towards her servants and subordinates, such as Lilith and Brigida.

The Royal Guard also could only stay still after being glared at by her sharp phoenix eyes. Although Jayna is only a third-grade combatant, no one dares to underestimate her, especially after her eyes change into fiery phoenix eyes.

Whenever Jayna's eyes change into fiery ones, she will become like a different person with the power of at least a sixth-grade. Moreover, no one could withstand her fire, not even Angus.

*WHOOSH* *BOOM* A fiery wing appeared behind Jayna's back while she used [Fiery Burst] to propel herself.

"Go! Go! Mommy!! Beat the sharpy sharpy!!" exclaimed Anna while being carried by Angus.

Jayna already catches up with Brigida in a few seconds and reaches the armored swordmaster.

Facing the two incoming women, the swordmaster didn't panic and kept deflecting Lilith's bombardment. *CLANG* Jayna's sword clashes with the swordmaster for a moment. Suddenly, the swordmaster jumped back and retreated in the distance.

*SSHHHSHH* Some parts of his armor and even his sword are turning reddish. All of this has the effect of being near Jayna's fire. Since her sword can withstand her fire, Jayna no longer holds back and releases her fire up to the limit when she clashes with the swordsman.

If the swordsman didn't retreat back, he may be burned alive along with his equipment. This is surprising to everyone, especially the swordsman. He knows his armor and sword are not ordinary equipment but an artifact-grade item.

Yet, Jayna still could melt them with her fire in brief contact. At this time, the swordsman thought of abandoning the bounty and escaping this monstrous phoenix. However, his pride as a swordmaster forced him to keep fighting.

"Viscount Waterhell, leave Jayna alone and focus on the other assailant that I shot down before." said Angus.

"B-But…" replied Viscount Waterhell with uncertainty.

"Don't worry, Jayna is the worst person for that stuck-up swordmaster. He may have impeachable sword skills. But he is nothing without a sword. I bet even our elite knight could easily deal with him. This will be a good experience for Jayna." said Angus.

Hearing this, Viscount Waterhell could only agree with Angus. However, he still paid attention to the fourth princess. He left the other assailants for the Baron under him to handle. He will not hesitate to shoot his spell anytime and rescue Jayna when the situation turns south.

Seeing this, Angus only shrugs it off and lets the viscount on his own. Although the swordmaster is disadvantaged, he still poses a significant threat to Jayna. When someone practices a sword to a pinnacle, he can easily cut anything, even those intangible ones.

Angus didn't know if the person had reached this stage, but he still needed to be on guard to react on time. Besides, his instinct is tingling as if something terrible will happen. This feeling somehow reminds him of the last battle in his previous life.

During that time, he will feel uncomfortable for the past few days before being betrayed by his brother and disciple.

*PIIITTT~* *FUU~* *PIIITTT~* At this moment, everyone heard a loud melodic flute. The sound is sirenic and enamored everyone, including Angus. For a moment, everyone is in a trance and forgets to do anything.

Even Duchess Amberblaze and the One-Eyed dwarf in the distance also stop fighting. The only person who is not affected by this melodic flute sound is Anna.

"Hmm… Anna can also play music!! *TRING* Anna is great~ Anna is cool~" sang Anna loudly while holding a unique stringed instrument.

Hearing Anna's horrible song, Angus wakes up from his trance and immediately shakes his head harshly with a cold sweat.

'What a dangerous sound?!! Jayna, wake up!! Wake up!!" called Angus through their bond.

Unfortunately, Jayna is standing still in the distance, and the swordmaster is completely immersed in the sound of the flute. Knowing Jayna is completely enthralled, Angus becomes furious and releases [Great Mana Echolocation] at full power.

Instantly, he perceived the perpetrator a few hundred meters away. He didn't expect the assailant to be capable of enthralling everyone through the flute from this far. At once, Angus takes out a customized sniper rifle and points in the perpetrator's direction.

As he takes aim, Angus keeps shaking his head a few times to the point of getting slight dizziness. The flute sound is enchanting and influences him a few times. If it is not for Anna's worse singing to distract him, he may again fall under this strong flute sound. *BANG*
