Chapter 143: Forming Team
"Oii.. don't ignore me. I am also going into the Endless Battlefield dimension." said Ian.
The other students begin to look at Ian, "Say, Angus, I didn't hear anything wrong, right? The ferocious beast also wants to enter the Endless Battlefield." said Jayna.
"Nope, I also heard it. He probably wanted to find another prey to challenge them. Well, you know, typical of a musclehead." replied Angus.
*Gigle* *Gigle* "Musclehead. Hahaha..." said Mia.
"Mia, you should not laugh at that. Although Ian has a hard rock dumb muscle brain inside his head, he is still a good person." said Millie.
Hearing this, the others couldn't help but laugh hard. As for Ian, he already got a mental breakdown from all the harsh words of his dormmate.
During this time, "Hey, everyone is here." said Axel approaching from far away.
Arriving at Angus's group, "Huh.. Why does Ian look like having a mental breakdown?" asked Axel, who just came.
"Don't worry about it. Ian is in the middle of questioning his life as a muscle brain. Anyway, what's that in your hand?" asked Angus, who noticed a brown parchment in Axel's hand.
"Ahh.. This is actually the reason I come here. Anyway, did any of you go into the Endless Battlefield dimension?" asked Axel.
Hearing this question, the Angus group looked at each other before answering, "All of us will be going. Is there anything wrong?" said Mia.
"As expected.. it's only… E-Ehhhh… All of you? Even Millie and Mia, too?" said Axel.
The Angus group nodded their head in reply to Axel. "Whaatt!!! I thought it was only Jayna, Ian, and maybe Angus accompanying Jayna. How come you two are also going into the Endless Battlefield?" said Ian.
'Oii.. what did you mean maybe accompanying Jayna' thought Angus inwardly.
"Well…" Millie tells Axel the story of his father.
"Frozen Sleep, huh?? That's a very rare disease, especially in the Heart Kingdom. I also hear that Fire Dragon Tongue herb could be found inside the Endless Battlefield." said Axel.
Then, Axel begins contemplating for a moment before saying, "Yosh, I already decided. I will also join you guys entering the Endless Battlefield." said Axel.
"Ehhh… But, it is dangerous. Weren't you afraid of death?" asked Mia
"Of course, I'm afraid. But, I also don't want to stay mediocre. Besides, my dream is to become an adventurer and see the wonders of the world. Sooner or later, I will explore dangerous places by myself." explained Axel.
"Moreover, I am also the second son in my family. So, you know they will not bother if I am truly gone." said Axel.
In the Heart Kingdom culture, the second or third son usually will not be chosen as the head of the family unless there is some accident with the firstborn son.
Because of this, some of the noble or wealthy merchant's sons didn't have a good relationship with the others, especially if they found their brother was mediocre.
A close brotherly feeling between Vergil and Angus is rare inside the Heart Kingdom or other similar nation cultures.
"Alright, enough about this. Since you want to enter the Endless Dimension, that means you need some kind of guide. Otherwise, you will enter a dangerous environment without knowing." said Axel while opening the brown parchment.
Looking at the brown parchment, "T-This is.." said Angus.
"Yes, it is the real magical map of Endless Battlefield. Most of the reason why there is a heavy casualty when entering the Endless Battlefield is that they couldn't find the exit or enter a dangerous environment blindly." explained Axel.
"By using this map, we didn't have to worry about losing our way. At first, I just wanted to sell this to you. But, since all of you are going, there is no way I will waste this kind of opportunity." said Axel resolutely.
Looking at this, Angus looks at Jayna, and she is just nodding her head. "Alright, then welcome to the team.
"However, you are wrong about being mediocre, Axel. You managed to get this magical map. As the fourth princess, I only have a normal map from my father's last journey. But, you even got the magical map that's even more valuable." explained Jayna.
"This already shows how capable you are. As the fourth princess, I will gladly accept you in our team." said Jayna.
"Ahh.. T-This is.. I just got lucky to get this map." said Axel embarrassingly.
"Don't worry about it. You are even more useful than Ian now." said Angus blatantly.
"Oii.. What do you mean by that?!" rebuked Ian, who is recovering from his mental breakdown.
"Yeah-Yeah, say the musclehead who fell unconscious after meeting the ghost." said Angus.
"Ehh.. t-that's because…" Ian couldn't say anything to rebuke Angus's statement.
Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but laugh.
"Alright, since we are going to enter the Endless Battlefield as a team. We need some preparation first. Fortunately, there is still one month before the entrance of Endless Battlefield. Jayna, could you train them for a while?" said Angus.
"Ehh.. Why don't you be the one that trains them?" said Jayna.
"That's because right now, you lack insight. One of the ways to gain insight is by training others. It also stabilizes your foundation as a combatant." said Angus.
"Then, What are you going to do?" asked Jayna.
"Me? I will go shopping for a lot of material. Since we are not only fighting other people but also higher grade monsters and probably beasts, we need to be properly ready for the worst case." said Angus.
Then, the group diminishes to do their own things. The next day, the group sent an application to become participants in going into the Endless Battlefield.
At first, the headmaster immediately rejected Jayna and Angus's application as they part of an essential noble inside the Heart Kingdom. But, after saying that they will still go with or without the help of the Royal Academy, the headmaster reluctantly agrees.
However, they will be trained specially by the teachers of the academy during this one month. Angus at first wants to refuse, but he thinks there is no problem accepting it and is more beneficial to others.
He could also ditch the teacher anytime, so he didn't have any problem accepting it. After finishing applying as a participant of the Royal Academy entering the Endless Battlefield dimension, Angus decided to leave the academy ground.
As the participant, he had a little privilege not to attend the course for a while. They also will be exempted from the final exam. As long as they survive the Endless Battlefield, they will get the highest score for their exam.
One of the privileges is also to go out and in the academy freely. Angus planned to buy some material he ordered before with the help of Ernest. Since he will fight higher grade monsters or beasts, he needs to prepare some trump cards.
Angus planned to create rune magic. It is a branch of magic where people seal or imbue spells into an object with the help of runes. However, creating sealing magic requires a lot of solid and rare material. Sometimes, it also needs some alchemy.
Basically, this is a money-burning technique. Fortunately, One thing that Angus didn't lack right now is money. Like a particular phrase from Angus's past life, 'Money is power.'
Arriving at the Golden Trade merchant guild, Ernest is already waiting for Angus at the entrance. Since the last transaction and deal with Angus, Golden Trade merchant guild already got a lot of profit.
Angus already became sort of a VVIP member for the Golden Trade merchant guild. Of course, by bringing the golden trade a lot of profit, Ernest was also promoted into a higher position inside the guild. Because of this, Ernest put a lot of effort when dealing with Angus.
Few days before coming here, Angus ordered Ernest to procure a lot of rare material for rune magic's requirement. Usually, all the material Angus orders immediately sent to him through courier.
However, the number and the value of the items are too huge to be entrusted to a courier. Both parties will not feel safe giving such things to the other person.
Just by the price of rare material Angus ordered, it has already reached around one million gold coins, almost the same as the price of ten rare artifacts.
This kind of enormous deal is crucial for the Golden Trade Merchant guild. After entering one of the private luxury rooms, Angus begins to get to the point like usual.
"So, has my order already arrived?" asked Angus.
"Yes, everything of what you order is in here." said Ernest while giving a space pouch.
Unlike the regular space pouch, this extraordinary space pouch with a few hundred cubic meters of space. This is a unique space pouch that is very rare in the market.
Accepting the pouch, Angus began to check the material he ordered inside the bag slowly. It is not because he didn't trust Ernest, but he also needed to check the condition of the material in case some of them didn't meet his requirement.
