I Just want a Peaceful life

Chapter 139: Breakthrough

After Jayna returns to her dorm and leaves Angus inside the infirmary room alone, Angus checks his body.

'Judging from the last system log, my body is reconstructed. I hope there is no problem inside my body after the reconstruction.' thought Angus inwardly before beginning a complete body check-up.

"Internal organs work normally, blood circulation seems fine, no problem on the mana core, heritage chi silent and mysterious as ever…"? as Angus checks his condition body one by one.

After a while, "It seems that the one that changes is my bone density and muscle." concluded Angus after checking all over his body.

Angus found that his bone density is increasing at a rapid rate. His muscles also become more flexible and compact. Moreover, it seems like his muscles are still in development like a muscle in the growing child.

Before opening the Gate of Life, his muscle density had already reached the limit and hardly could develop more. Now, his muscles show a sign of growing like a newborn baby muscle.

This discovery elated him since he finally could train and surpass his previous body limitation. Then, Angus double-checks everything in case there is some hidden danger inside his body. Fortunately, he didn't find anything strange and decided to check his status panel.

Host: Angus Victory

Age: 13 Years Old

MP: 203/203

Heritage chi: ???

Strength: 30

Dexterity: 28

Intelligence: 42

Vitality: 40

Soul Point: 489

Looking at his status, 'No wonder, I feel weird in my body. It turns out my strength has increased by five, and dexterity has increased by three. Haa.. this will take a long time to adapt and completely control my body.' thought Angus.

Angus also found that his strength and dexterity could be enhanced through the system again, which means he finally broke through his previous body limit.

After checking everything and making sure his system went as usual, "Draven, are you there?" said Angus.

"Stupid Master, finally remember me." said Draven inside Angus's mind.

Previously Angus left Draven at his dorm before opening the Gate of Life. From Old man Balrug's explanation, he needs to come alone when opening the Gate of Life without interference.

Angus didn't want to take a gamble, so he leaves Draven behind and commands him not to leave the dorm room until he summons him.

"I am sorry. It's just that I can't take a gamble by bringing you. Did you find any discomfort during the trial?" asked Angus.

"Discomfort?!! Do you say that discomfort??! I thought I was going to die at one moment from the contract!! You know what, do what you want. I don't care if you are going to kill yourself!!" said Draven angrily.

Hearing this, "Err… sorry-sorry, I don't know that you are going to be affected like that." Angus tries to calm the grumpy Mundus.

"Hmph… " said Draven.

"Alright, how about three days' worth of grade two monster meat?" said Angus.

Hearing this, the Mundus familiar immediately appeared in front of him. "Make it one month, and I will forgive you."

"No way, that's too long. one week is the maximum I can give you." Angus tried to negotiate with the spiky familiar in front of him.

"Hmm.. Alright, deal. It's one week." said Draven.

Although he could supply grade two monster meat with Angus's current own money for years, he decided not to give it easily to Draven. It was because Angus didn't want to spoil Draven too much.

From some of the books that mentioned Mundus, Angus found that Mundus is a very ferocious beast despite its cunning mind. However, Draven, who becomes his familiar, is quite spoiled and begins to lose its vicious nature.

Angus didn't want Draven to become too spoiled and lose its fang. So, he decided to make Draven a little bit aggressive by regulating its food.

So far, he managed to make Draven a little bit more aggressive than usual. It also begins to become more cunning to get more low-grade monster meat.

The next day, Angus goes to his class as usual as nothing is going wrong. Luckily, the class course is Combat Training and doesn't have any important activity besides Angus trying to learn a new spell.

During lunch, he joins his brother Vergil who keeps nagging him about his injury. It seems that Vergil also just heard about his condition going into the infirmary.

"Are you sure you are okay?" asked Vergil for the fifth time.

"*Sigh* Yes, there is nothing to worry about." said Angus.

"Well, if you said so. Just don't overwork yourself…." Vergil starts to lecture Angus.

As Angus couldn't stand Vergil's nagging, "Yes-Yes… Anyway, when are you going to do the graduation quest?" asked Angus, trying to divert the topic.

"Ohh… Why? Did you miss me already?" asked Vergil.

'More like I don't want you to keep nagging me.' thought Angus inwardly.

"No, I am just curious." replied Angus.

"Well, I plan to take the graduation quest tomorrow." said Vergil.

"Ahh.. that's so soon. I heard last year students usually take it one or two months before the final exam." said Angus.

"That should be the normal case. But, I have a special quest which will take some time to finish." explained Vergil

"What's the quest?" asked Angus.

"That's a secret. You will know it after you reach last year or wait until I finish it." said Vergil with a teasing smile.

"Haaa… Alright then, good luck, brother." said Angus.

"Don't worry, I will finish it as fast as possible." said Vergil.

Then, the two siblings keep chatting for a while before going back to do their own business.

As time went by, a few months passed since Angus opened the Gate of Life. During these few months, Angus could feel his body getting stronger at a fast rate and led him to some problems in controlling his strength.

At some moment, he even managed to break a glass just by gripping it. Fortunately, it didn't give a significant change during the battle. He couldn't hold back his strength.

Furthermore, Angus is in the magician class, and he didn't need to get a frontal physical battle. The only physical training he got is only by trying dodging or running exercises.

Even that is only a fundamental thing since magician class students need to know how to avoid or run away.

Although Angus has decided to get stronger and stand at the peak, he still chooses to become low-key as the current him is too weak compared to other powerhouses.

Now, Angus is inside the clearing nearby the lush vegetation inside the academy ground. Not far from him, Jayna is practicing her swordsmanship while trying to create movement skills.

Unlike Angus, who is a genius at learning and creating a skill with a lot of experience, Jayna still needs to learn independently by doing trial and error.

After coming to this place a few times, Angus and Jayna decide that this place is their secret training place. Now, Angus is standing on the spot without moving while closing his eyes.

After a while, "Draven, let's do it once again." said Angus.

Hearing Angus's command, Draven spread a black mist from inside Angus's shadow. After a while, Angus opened his eyes.

Looking at the thick mist nearby, "Shadow mode!!" said Angus.

Angus immediately got wrapped by his own shadow. After silent for a moment, "Now!! [Shadow Blink]"

Angus's appearance disappears before appearing a few meters away while inside the black mist. Then, Angus releases his shadow mode and commands Draven to retract his black mist.

"The mana consumption is still enormous. But it's better than the first time." muttered Angus analyzing his current condition.

Angus was trying to replicate [Blink] with the help of Draven. He still remembers how valuable and overpowering skill was when King Leon used it against King Nexus in their spar.

At first, he was interested and trying to learn this skill that King Leon often used. But, Angus knows he needs to be familiar with space itself and its fluctuation first before starting training on it.

As modern human Earth, he knows the concept of space and its definition. However, to feel the space itself is a different matter. The only experience he had about feeling space is when he used a teleportation device before.

Even that was very instant and fast. Angus didn't feel anything else besides getting disoriented and shaking. Then, he realized that his familiar also could do teleportation inside its own black mist.

After a few more tests and inquiries, he found that Mundus could do teleportation at their discretion but easier when they're inside the dark place and the destination also needs to be in a dark place.

This kind of ability is quite absurd since unless it is a specially made room or place, there will always be dark places such as shadows in everything. Wherever there is light, there is also shadow.

Still, Draven is very young and only in grade one. He can't go far away without getting exhausted. Not only that, but he also couldn't go into the place where he didn't know or could not feel.

Before someone could do [Teleportation] or [Blink], they need to know about the place and feel it by their sense or perception.

To feel it, the user usually enlarges their perception with the help of mana or something like Dark Mist. After perceiving it, they just need to 'jump' or teleport to the location they want.
