I Just want a Peaceful life

While King Andvari and Duchess Amberblaze are fighting, Jade passes through the thick poisonous mist. Currently, he is covered by translucent fiery armor from his Crimson Orb [Surya Armor].

The armor may look glass-made, but it radiates very hot and could burn everything in the surrounding area. Even the desolate ground far below him turns into hot sludge while a few spots turn into flowing lava.

With the armor’s heat, Jade and the baby octopus are safe from the potent toxic gas in the surrounding area. In a moment, he arrives at the two colossal beasts’ location.

Jade finds Onyx looking like a gigantic porcupine snake that keeps releasing toxic gas. Currently, Onyx is biting and wrapped around one of the enormous tentacles. At the same time, Jade also finds another two gigantic tentacles hitting Onyx relentlessly.

But, all these attacks only annoy the colossal ancient snake and hissing loudly. Before Angus came here, Jade had already heard and read the report about Onyx. But, he finds Onyx far more dangerous than they initially thought.

With his sharp perception and discerning eyes, he could feel this beast was not an ordinary sixth-grade beast. He could feel the beast had power equal to seventh grade. Jade feels like he is in front of those monster overlords he met when he was inside the Endless Battlefield dimension.

Over time, Onyx’s aura and presence got stronger and more powerful. It is entirely different from when it is still being the Plargos’s followers familiar. The Onyx at that time and now is like the sky and earth.

Jade even thinks that Duchess Amberblaze is fighting a different snake beast than the one in front of him. Currently, Jade’s instinct is to scream that the snake in front of him is dangerous, like the Krugguar Emperor he met not too long ago.

He is sure the Duchess Amberblaze will never be able to fight against this horrible beast to stand still unscathed even with her ridiculous speed. Just the potent toxin it released already made the snake beast unapproachable by ordinary combatants.

If Jade didn’t use [Surya Armor] at full power, the toxic gas might be able to reach him and the baby octopus.

Unfortunately, Jade didn’t know Onyx was actually getting restricted by contract when he was still familiar. It couldn’t grow stronger as his master strength was still a sixth-grade combatant.

It is entirely different from its current situation. Onyx may have become Anna’s pet, but it didn’t sign a contract with her. After being liberated from the contract restriction of his previous master, his accumulated power soared and grew at astonishing speed.

Moreover, it also consumed tons of sea monsters/beasts during Anna’s little adventure. With enough nutrition and her accumulated power, the ancient beast snake can finally reach a higher power. Even though it didn’t get seventh-grade level, it could still fight seventh grade,

Jade was only surprised for a moment before approaching one of the tentacles. He didn’t have time to think about why Onyx could become stronger in a short time or how Anna could tame such a fearsome beast.

Currently, he needs to prevent the two beasts from fighting. He didn’t know anything about the mysterious tentacle beast, but he realized it began to radiate a power compared to seventh grade.

Jade could feel the mana concentration in the surrounding area getting thicker. He needs to stop the two beasts before they condense into liquified mana. Jade approaches the gigantic tentacle and releases his mana.

Feeling the newcomer’s presence, Onyx and the gigantic tentacle stopped for a moment. Without wasting time, Jade envelops the baby octopus creature with very thick mana and sends it to one of the stopped tentacles.

The baby octopus landed safely on the gigantic suction cup. Then, the baby octopus disappears inside the giant tentacle creature. A moment later, the same tentacle entered the ground quickly.

Seeing the baby octopus is safe now, Jade feels relieved and hopes the tentacle creature returns to the ground.

*GRRTTT* Another thunderous wave reverb from the ground. Just as Jade feels like it is finally over, two more gigantic tentacles appear and surround Onyx. Suddenly, a bright light came from the countless suction cups on the tentacle beast [Luminous Pillar].

“SHIT!!” cursed Jade as he enlarged his Crimson Orb to defend against this indiscriminate attack.

*BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* At the same time, King Andvari and Duchess Amberblaze find a few large light beams coming from the thick toxic gas. Fortunately, they could react fast and dodge or defect the destructive light.

The light beam travels far and could be seen from the border fortress located dozens of kilometers away. As the light beam recedes, the toxic gas slowly disappears, revealing the unscathed Onyx hissing in anger against the tentacle beast.

Although there is no visible damage to Onyx’s body, it still feels a lot of pain all over its body from the previous light beam attack.

Onyx’s scale turns red with purple liquid coated on each sharp scale. Using its monstrous speed, Onyx coils the nearby gigantic tentacles and spins around [Poison Shred]. *BRRTT* In a moment, all the tentacle’s thick skin is shredded into a bloody pulp.

Some of it is almost cut off from the ground. The surrounding area is covered with red blood from the tentacle. *GRRTTT* Another thunderous soundwave is coming from the ground.

At the same time, Jade is also helplessly looking at this as he knows the two beasts will not stop fighting in no time. He could feel the two beasts begin to radiate more mana for a more serious fight.

“Jade, what happened?” asked the Duchess as she approached Jade.

Because of the previous light beam attack, the toxic gas concentration is getting lesser. It is still dangerous and could kill ordinary people in less than a second, but the Duchess could protect her body with mana.

This kind of technique will consume her mana fast. Moreover, the consumption rate increases as the toxic gas become thicker. But, it is manageable for the current situation.

“I managed to deliver the octopus safely, but they are still fighting and getting more serious.” said Jade as he took a distance from the two colossal beasts.

“What?!! Wait… How could it become this stronger?!” exclaimed the Duchess as she also felt Onyx’s mana from a distance.

“I also don’t know. I think you should call Angus and tell that little monster to call it back. Otherwise, they will keep fighting until one of them is dead.” said Jade using his telepathy spell.

“Tch.. Fine.” replied Duchess Amberblaze while glancing at the incoming King Andvari.

They don’t want the king to notice they know one of the colossal beasts in front of them. Onyx may be Anna’s pet, but it didn’t mean they could use her and Onyx.

Unless it is a very perilous situation where the whole kingdom is at risk of extinction, they will never use Anna or Onyx. Ancient Beast and Monster-minded people are very sensitive topics for some kingdoms.

The moment they reveal that they use such a power, all the kingdoms will definitely condemn them. Until now, King Leon always emphasized that the Heart Kingdom is a free nation and didn’t prohibit any race enter and staying in it.

As long as they obey the kingdom’s law, anyone could stay in the Heart Kingdom. Not only the Heart Kingdom but many strong mix-races kingdoms also employ this policy. Therefore, the religious group and other kingdoms couldn’t demand Anna from them.

However, it is a different story if Anna or Onyx also become part of their military. Those kingdoms and religious groups that hate monster-minded people will think they not only shelter Anna but also employ and use her.

There is a big difference between letting the girl stay and using her. Everyone knows the terrifying power a monster-minded person could be.

If the other kingdoms knew the Heart Kingdom could use Anna and have two seventh-grade combatants, the other kingdoms would think of the Heart Kingdom as a threat.

Never mind the monster-minded Anna. Even with the addition of ancient beast Zokline, all the kingdom will be labeled the Heart Kingdom as a threat. Nothing good will come from making other kingdoms wary of them.

Therefore, Jade and Duchess Amberblaze couldn’t let the cunning king Nergal know about this matter. Duchess Amberblaze immediately runs far away and covers herself with soundproofing magic tools.

Then, she takes out her communication device and calls Angus. During their search for Vitas, the Duchess warns Angus always to have his communication device on his side. She will beat him to a pulp if she calls and he doesn’t immediately answer it.

*Ring* *Ring* *Ring* “Hello, Angus is speaking. *Arrgghh* *My Arm!!*” said Angus casually while a series of cries were heard in the background.

‘These kids!!’ thought Duchess Amberblaze as she knows they are not yet back at the Windshire Fort.

“Brat, what did you do this time?!!” asked Duchess Amberblaze in an angry tone.

“Nothing important, just finishing some moles. *You are dead meat!!* Opps… Anyway, what is it, my dear aunt?! I am kinda.. *BAM* *BAM* busy right now.” said Angus calmly.

‘I told them to go back!! Arghhh… Fuck it!! Leon, wait until I go back!! I will not escort these kids again.’ cursed the Duchess while blaming her lover for her damned task.
