Chapter 421 Vacation
The invisible wave spreads through the whole Firuman and could be perceived by people with the strength of seventh-grade or monster overlord.
“Hmm… Isn’t this the aura of Vampire King Alfred?” said one of the elf leaders.
“Hahaha… that immortal bastard is finally dead!! Let’s celebrate this!” said Chief Jork
“Interesting… It seems the pureblood vampire is as immortal as it seems.” said one of the Alvan United leaders.
Soon, all the seventh-grade combatants all over Firuman notice the Vampire King Alfred’s death and react differently. Some of the hostile nations nearby the Eternal kingdom are beginning to plan and ready to advance.
However, they didn’t dare to move first since they knew the Eternal kingdom was still on the Krugguar Emperor’s path. It is not too late to claim and invade the Eternal kingdom after the monster overlord passes by.
At the same time, the Krugguar Emperor suddenly stopped in the middle of the air and looked in the Eternal kingdom’s direction.
After being silent for a while, the monster overlord releases a thunderous scream and their path begins to change slightly. Unfortunately, this change will have a massive impact on all the kingdoms nearby.
A few days later, news about the Krugguar Emperor destroying small kingdoms began spreading. The monster overlord is moving like a disastrous storm and destroying anything on its path.
Fortunately, the national leaders’ conjecture is correct. The Krugguar Emperor will avoid kingdoms or paths with at least three seventh-grade combatants.
However, it will still try to fight and push through any kingdom without three seventh-grade combatants, which still causes chaos throughout Firuman.
In the meantime, Angus finally wakes up in an unfamiliar room. Currently, he is completely confused about his current situation. As soon as he wakes up, he sees a black-skinned snake on top of his body.
Moreover, he knows this is not an ordinary snake since his instinct keeps alarming him. Fortunately, Angus reigned his emotion and didn’t scream at this situation. He didn’t know what this dangerous snake would do if he suddenly startled it.
After calming his mind, he notices Jayna is sleeping on the chair beside him while Anna is resting peacefully on the bed beside him. He also finds that it is already late in the evening. Suddenly, Jayna wakes up from her sleep as she feels something through their bond.
“Angus!! You finally awake. Are you alright?” called Jayna worriedly.
“Err… I am fine, Jayna. Anyway, why is there a snake here?” said Angus as he still didn’t forget the snake beast on top of his body.
“Ohh… Don’t worry, he is Onyx, Anna’s new pet. Apparently, it could hide its aura and become like a normal snake. But, it seems you can still perceive dangerous feelings from it.” explained Jayna as she understood Angus’s worry.
Hearing this, Angus could only massage his forehead. Although he said he was fine, he felt like having an awful hangover. Combined with seeing a dangerous snake on top of his body as soon as he woke up made him feel worse and on edge.
“Angus, are you really alright?” called Jayna as she could feel Angus’s distress.
“Urgh… Don’t worry, I feel like getting a bad hangover. Anyway, what happened? I only remember touching the scythe artifact before everything turned red and getting a massive headache.”
‘Continue reading on NovEL Bin’,
“After that, the artifact is flying somewhere and you fall unconscious for four whole days.” said Jayna.
“Four days?!! That’s… Quite long.” said Angus.
“Yeah…” muttered Jayna.
Suddenly, Angus hugs Jayna.
“I am sorry. I make you worry so much.” said Angus while rubbing Jayna’s back.
“I-It’s okay. Everyone said they didn’t know when you would wake up. They said you got some kind of powerful mental attack. I’m just afraid you will never wake up again.” said Jayna.
“Shushh… It’s okay. Well, it is a strong mental attack since it could even offset the blessing of the Forgotten King. Still, I am fine.” said Angus while kissing Jayna.
Then, they exchange deep kisses passionately before stopping for a breath. At this moment, they feel something on the bed beside them and find Anna is looking at them with her pet snake.
“Err… This is…” said Angus as he felt awkward.
They feel like a parent getting caught making love in front of their children.
“Is the big sis pregnant now?” asked Anna curiously.
“No.. Anna. That’s not how it works.” rebuked Jayna while blushing.
“Ehh… But, Onyx said you are mating right now. Bad Onyx!! You are lying to me.” said Anna while hitting the ancient beast with the black scepter in her hand.
Onyx immediately feels like being wrong but doesn’t dare to fight back. Both Angus and Jayna could only pity the mighty ancient beast. Then, Angus asked a few things during his absence.
To his surprise, Anna didn’t make a contract with Onyx. She just thought of having him as her pet and Onyx couldn’t help but disobey her. This situation is quite weird. Even Draven, Angus’s familiar, also didn’t know how it could happen.
Draven explained that Zokline should be one of the beasts that need a special contract like Mundus and the other legendary beasts before becoming a companion of others. After thinking for a while, they finally give up as common sense never works when talking about Anna.
Angus also finds that currently he is in Count Stillshot’s manor inside the Sunset City. The count was already executed before Angus and the others fought against the Plargos believer.
The following day, Angus and the others ready themselves for their long-awaited vacation at the beach. Just as they left their room, one of the nearby maids was surprised about his wake-up and immediately told the other employee.
Ignoring the maid and employee, Angus and the others keep walking toward the manor entrance accompanied by the survived royal guards. However, they see a flash of red light in the middle of the way.
“Where did you think you were going?” asked Duchess Amberblaze.
“To the beach. Now, everything is done. We could finally have some vacation.” said Angus with a smile.
“*Sigh* Don’t you think you need to explain something to me first?” asked the Duchess.
“About what?!” asked Angus back.
“Alright, brat. It seems you need some beating to remember.” said Duchess Amberblaze as she summoned her greatsword artifact.
“Err… It’s just a joke. No need to get that serious, Aunt Extalia.” said Angus.
“You… Alright, explain everything that happens and your plan for those religious groups. Also, don’t you dare call me your aunt?!! You could not call me that before you officially marry Jayna.” said Duchess Amberblaze in a cold tone.
Then, Angus begins to clarify what happened to him and his initial plan to the religious group. He also asks about Anna’s current situation and the reaction of the other religious group.
Fortunately, Duchess Amberblaze already guessed Angus’ plan only to promote his purification and take the artifact for himself. Hence, she decides to calm down and respond to the religious group appropriately.
There is some pressure from the four religious groups about giving Anna. However, they were also silenced since no one dared to fight Duchess Amberblaze and Zokline simultaneously openly. They also didn’t dare to force the Heart kingdom too much.
Everyone roughly knows the current strength of the Heart kingdom. With the Heart kingdom’s current power. Forget about controlling their government, they couldn’t even create any disturbance in it.
Since the battle between the Nergal Kingdom, the Heart kingdom has reinforced not only its border defense but also its infrastructure and all major city security. It is not weird to find many knights patrolling inside the major city along with the Extermination squad.
“Alright, then we excuse ourselves.” said Angus.
“Hold on.” stopped Duchess Amberblaze.
“Is there anything else?” asked Angus.
“You have another important task.” said the Duchess.
“Another one?! One after another… What is it?” asked Angus.
“You need to go to the Nirvas kingdom.” replied Duchess Amberblaze.
“Nope. Bye. See you later, Aunt Extalia.” said Angus as he grabbed Jayna and Anna before using Flame Teleportation outside the manor.
“That kid!! Fine, I give you three days’ vacation.” said Duchess Amberblaze.
At the same time, Angus and the others appear inside the tavern’s fireplace before moving out to the beach, ignoring everyone’s surprise inside the tavern.
‘Nirvas kingdom… Does it mean she wants me to negotiate with the Nirvas not to join the war? No, I didn’t have that much authority. Although I am the third son of the Duke, It is still not enough for me to negotiate with a kingdom like Nirvas.’
‘It means I will accompany someone else, possibly one of the princes or the other duke. Although I am interested in the Nirvas Kingdom, it didn’t mean King Leon and aunt Extalia could keep pushing me around.’
‘Besides, are there no other people?! Why must it be me?!!’ grumbled Angus inwardly.
Noticing Angus’s mood, Jayna couldn’t help but hold Angus’s hand to calm him down. She also thinks the same thing as Angus. Moreover, Jayna thought Angus had already done enough for the kingdom and should get a nice vacation.
Arriving at the beach, they finally see the blue ocean on the horizon. Anna began running around in the sand excitedly after seeing the vast sea and the beach for the first time.
“Angus.. Big Sis… It’s blue!! The ground feels soft and wet!” exclaimed Anna happily while running with Onyx.
