I Just want a Peaceful life

Chapter 123: Dark Elf

Exiting the dorm area, Angus travels across the royal academy ground under the bright moonlight. Using his expertise and his new skill to hide in the shadows, Angus managed to sneak around silently without being found out.

Although there are no other people that are stalking him, he still needs to take some precautions. Especially after being stalked by teacher Elis for the whole afternoon.

If not for Angus's [Mana Echolocation] and strong perception, Angus wouldn't find out this teacher was stalking him the whole afternoon. Judging by this behavior, she will also stalk him for a few days.

Because of this, Angus could only sneak around in the middle of the night to explore the hidden underground chamber.

Soon, he arrived at the abandoned facility he left behind yesterday. Entering the abandoned facility, Angus draws out the shadow that covers his body. After that, he touched the brick according to its sequence.

Then, once again the floor goes down revealing a hidden stair towards the underground below. Taking out a magical lamp device, Angus descended slowly towards the underground.

Walking the stairs in the middle of the darkness, Angus arrives in front of a big door. Then he looked carefully at the door without touching it using [Mana Eye].

'Hmm.. Like I thought there are various runes hidden in this door. Probably a sort of trap or alarm.' thought Angus.

After thinking a little bit, "Draven, can you go behind the door and open it from the inside?"

"Alright, master." said Draven as he entered the door through its gap.

*Clang* Then, the door opened from the inside easily and disable the trap runes.

"As I thought, the rune is not working if the door is opened from the inside." said Angus while entering the chamber.

The chamber is black colored by its floor, wall, and ceiling which make the room very gloomy. Rather than a chamber, Angus thought it was a sort of storage room since there are many kinds of things inside of it.

Be it deteriorating clothes, ingredients, minerals, books, to dead monster eggs. There are many monster rows of dead monster eggs beside the cracked one which Angus guesses Draven's monster egg.

After checking carefully, Angus didn't find another love monster egg that still didn't hatch. According to Draven, his egg is quite special and needs a dark place and a long time before it could hatch.

Draven is a kind of accidental phenomenon from this abandoned chamber. After looking carefully, Angus found that this chamber is at least a hundred years or older.

After didn't find any kind of special things or item, Angus went towards the desk and the bookshelf area.

On the middle of the desk, there is a piece of paper with a strange symbol that Angus didn't understand its meaning. Angus guesses it is a sentence from the Dusk language that the owner left behind.

After checking the desk for a while, Angus didn't find anything. Then, Angus goes towards the bookshelf to find more clues about the room and its owner. Since the other party often uses powerful language such as Dusk Language, the owner may be some powerful person.

Fortunately, the book on the shelf is not written in the dusk language. Still, it is written in a sort of ancient language. From Angus's knowledge, this is the language of the ancient Dark Elf race.

The Dark Elf race is the counterpart of the normal Elf race. They inherited their strong characteristic of the Elf race but didn't have a long lifespan. The eldest of this race could only live until around 80 years old.

However, unlike the humble Elf race, their nature is more aggressive and specialized in combat. Some rumors said that one of the dark elves could beat two or three normal elves. This shows the terrifying combat power of this race.

Now, their kind is almost extinct since they also inherited the infertility of elves. However, there is a rare phenomenon where the normal elf gives birth to a dark elf. This is also a sign that the world is in danger and needs the help of the dark elf's strength.

In the ancient record every time Dark Elf is born, there will be a calamity that follows them. Because of that, the Dark elf is also the sign of calamity or disaster itself.

Angus still didn't learn the dark elf language but he knows there is some book about it inside the royal academy library.

As the number one private academy in the human race, the royal academy has a great number of book collections from various kinds of sources.

After storing all the books into his wristwatch storage, Angus checks the material and ingredients in the other-self. Some of the material already completely deteriorated while the mineral-type item still could be used.

He also collects all these mineral items since every single one of them is very rare. Just by using this type of material, Angus may create a weapon like his Sky Thorn. His Sky Thorn is made of pure Manatium and has high conductivity with mana.

In a world where people use mana as combat power, this kind of weapon is very rare and precious.

Done with looting everything, Angus checks the chamber once again in case he missed something. Then, he exited the room. Exiting the room, Angus closes the hidden staircase and once again uses his familiar skill to go back to the dorm.

Angus is quite happy about the harvest he gets from the hidden chamber. Just by the rare material he looted, he could already live like a potato in his everyday life.

If Angus's life before this could be said as rich, now Angus could be said as super-rich. This is still not counting the profit he will get when he starts selling his Miasma Cure Potion.

"No wonder, many people like to hunt or search hidden tombs and someone's legacy in this world. Just a small storage chamber could contain many precious things." said Angus while lying down on the bed.

"Still, I need to at least learn about the hidden chamber owner." said Angus before he goes to sleep.

In the next few days, Angus kept learning about the ancient dark elf language while sometimes translating the book he took from the hidden chamber.

During these past days, as Angus thought, Teacher Elis kept silently stalking Angus while being invisible. Fortunately, Teacher Elis gave up after a few days otherwise she would soon know Angus's true strength.

Besides learning the Ancient Dark Elf language, Angus also keeps helping Jayna to create her skill. At first, Angus thought to teach her his skill. But, all his skill is kind of self-created that is customized for himself.

She may use the skill but not as well as Angus. Because of this, Angus didn't teach her any skills but helped her to create her skill.

Since Jayna is using a sword as her main weapon, she is the type with close combat range combatant. This type of combatant needs a good movement skill be it for dodging and attacking.

One of Angus's favorite movement skills is [Beast Walk] that he created based on his inspiration from various animal movements. This skill makes Angus very unpredictable but also very difficult to do.

If not because Angus has complete mastery of his own body, he will never be able to do this movement skill. Now, Angus and Jayna are trying to create a movement skill that is suitable for her.

"So, do I need to observe some animal movement?" asked Jayna.

"Of course not. I created [Beast Walk] based on my understanding of animal movement. So, what you need to do is create movement skills based on your understanding. This is the true way to create a skill for your use." explained Angus.

"Not only will the skill be exclusive to you but you could develop the skill further as your experience accumulated." added Angus.

"Alright, I get it. But, Why do I need to go on this picnic with you in this desolate forest?" asked Jayna.

"Ehh.. Did you not like it?" asked Angus back.

"N-No… It just.. you said you will help me create a movement skill. So, I thought you would train me or something." said Jayna while blushing.

"Well, training is important. But, you also need to relax sometimes and enjoy the surroundings. Besides, one of the best inspirations usually comes from nature itself." said Angus while getting close with Jayna.

Being closed by Angus, Jayna couldn't help but blush. After Jayna learned [Arctic Heart] she could hide and control her emotion better than before. But, she will find some kind of distress whenever being teased by Angus like the current one.

"Ahh… It's better if we are on some kind of beach or ocean." said Angus while enjoying the scenery with Jayna.

"You are right, I hear Sunset city has a nice beach for the vacation." said Jayna.

"Sunset city?? Hmm.. I hear it is the only city that connects with the ocean. I look forward to going there in the future." said Angus.

Unbeknown to them, they may not have time to go towards this city in the future.
