I Just want a Peaceful life

Chapter 212: Fighting Instinct

After attacking the few groups left behind by the other village leader, village leader Jade and the others immediately return to the Ancestral Ruin leaving only a few spies behind.

Since the attack only happened in a short time, they could not kill all of them. Still, they managed to deal some damage towards all of them and injure them. Only a few combatants managed to survive unscathed.

During this time, Jayna truly shows her prowess in dealing with ordinary combatants. With the help of Ilgor, she managed to kill two distracted fourth-grade combatants using her unstoppable fiery sword.

Unfortunately, she needed to retreat immediately. Otherwise, she could kill more fourth-grade combatants. This shows the prowess of her skill combined with the [Hellfire]. Unless it is another ancient power or artifact, it will never withstand Jayna's attack.

Even Angus himself needs to be careful when dealing with Jayna's fiery sword. In most cases, he will just dodge the attack or defeat Jayna in another way.

In the meantime, village leader Jade and others retreat. The remaining survivors could only helplessly see them escape. During this time, one of the fourth-grade combatants that control the slaves dies under the surprise attack.

This makes all the slaves being freed at the same time. The free slaves immediately try to run for their lives in various directions. One of them is also a small malnutritioned girl with long black hair.

She keeps running in this scorched desert without paying attention to the surroundings. Just a moment later, she had already traveled far away from the battlefield. However, she didn't realize this and kept running until her skinny body couldn't hold on.

Her speed and momentum are very fast, which could make most of the third-grade combatants to shame. However, her body couldn't hold her speed and falling. After falling with a rough breath, she finally realized she was in the middle of nowhere in the desert.

"Haa.. Ha.. Why? Why must I run? Why am I here? Why did I live? Hic… Hic.." as the girl starts crying while muttering like a crazy person.

Without her realizing a dark vapor is coming out from her body towards the surrounding area.

"Help.. Please, someone.. Help me… Mommy… please don't leave me alone?!!" screamed the girl.

Suddenly, she heard a voice from out of nowhere, "You should try to control your power."

Hearing this, "W-Who is it? Are you going to save me?" asked the little girl.

The voice didn't reply, "*sigh* It seems you have not completely lost your mind." said Angus as he revealed himself.

"Are you going to save me?" asked the little girl once again, ignoring Angus's comment.

Angus didn't reply and only looked coldly at the long dark-haired little girl who emanated a dark vapor nearby.

"Are you going to save me?" asked the little girl again.

As Angus kept staring at the little girl, "Y-You are not going to save me, right? Why? Why are you not saving me? Why am I alive? WHY?!!" screamed the little girl while the dark vapor in her surroundings got thicker.

In the meantime, Angus kept observing the little girl expressionlessly.

"Such a thick dark element?! However, it is also corrupted with miasma. Master, are you going to kill that girl?" commented Draven from Angus's shadow.

"*Sigh* This is why I don't want to deal with this kind of person. They are too pitiful." replied Angus.

"Master, you don't think to let her be right? You know what she is capable of if you let her live." said Draven.

"Draven, there is no truly good or bad person in this world. I said I didn't want to deal with her before, not because she is dangerous. It is because her matter is troublesome. I already have Jayna's matter to think about." said Angus.

"For me, she is no different than any other person. She just has more power in her hand. That's all." added Angus.

"Master, from my predecessor's knowledge, a person with both miasma and mana is an anomaly. She will not stop until she destroys this world. It is like her fate to destroy the world. She is the enemy of the world." said Draven.

"Hmm.. Draven, why are you becoming chatty all of a sudden?" asked Angus out of nowhere.

"I.. I'm not sure. But, my beast instinct is screaming and afraid of her." said Draven.

"Hee.. this is the first time. To think that the great Mundus beast that is on par with the dragon is afraid of something." said Angus.

"We.. We are not afraid of that little girl. W-We.. are just…" replied Draven trying to justify himself.

"Then, why don't you try to kill her by yourself? I bet if you use your shadow spike, she will be done without realizing being killed." said Angus.

"Err.. Alright.. Alright.. I am afraid of her. I couldn't even touch her. I don't know why it's like my body won't move when I think about fighting with her." said Draven.

"Hmm.. That's interesting. Ohh.. It looks like she is done with her transformation. It takes quite a long time." said Angus while looking at the dark-haired girl's new appearance.

Her body is still skinny with a pale color. She is also still wearing the same ragged clothes on her body. However, a mad look in her pitch-black eyes and thick dark vapor keep release from her body. Angus could feel some uncomfortable feelings from this vapor.

"Draven, let me teach you something. You said your body and instinct are afraid of her. Well, actually, me too. Even now, I also feel disgusted at the miasma she released." said Angus.

"However, I am someone who will stand on the top. Why should I be afraid of her? If there is something I am afraid of, then all I need is just to use absolute power to break them!!" added Angus in a deep tone.

Angus then disappears and grabs the little-haired girl's head before slamming it to the ground. *BLAM* The little girl was surprised at Angus's sudden attack. Before she wants to retaliate, she sees Angus's deep black eye.

"DEATH!!" a word is coming from her mind and making her completely paralyzed on the spot.

Although she longs to be dead, she is also afraid of this concept as a living being. This kind of sensation is coming from her body like an instinct.

Looking that the little girl is not responding, "See… You are no different than others in front of absolute power." said Angus as he released his hand from the girl's head.

"Leave, go and survive." said Angus coldly towards the girl.

"Master, you are not going to release her, right?" said Draven as he came out from Angus's shadow.

"Draven, are you still afraid of her?" asked Angus.

"I-I.." Draven didn't know how to reply.

"I don't feel afraid of her anymore. She is the same as any other enemy that I encounter. But, I still have a bottom line. I will never kill a child."

"No matter how they should die, It is completely wrong to kill them. At least let them grow into adults and feel the world before you kill them." said Angus.

After saying that, Angus walks away, leaving the little girl alone. Suddenly, the little girl grabbed Angus's leg before he could move any further.

"What are you doing? Don't you understand what I am saying? Or do you truly want to die?" said Angus coldly towards the little girl.

Looking at Angus's cold expression, the little girl shivered a little bit. Before steeling herself, "Help.. Please.. help me.." said the little girl in a low voice.

After a moment of silence, "*Sigh* How troublesome. Well, At least you are brave enough to fight your nature. Here, have this." said Angus while giving the little girl water and food from his space storage.

Then, Angus begins to build a tent nearby. In the meantime, the girl is confused at Angus's change action.

While building a tent, "Are you going to eat it or not?" said Angus.

The little girl began to eat the food. As she tasted the food, she started to tear up. But, her hungry stomach forced her to keep eating the food without thoroughly tasting the food. Still, for her, this is the most delicious food she tasted in a long time.

After Angus built the tent, "Ha… I hope Jayna will not be mad at this." said Angus.

While Angus takes care of the monster-minded little girl, the other village camp is in turmoil. After Angus detonates the bomb in the camp, almost all the tents get destroyed, and many people are injured.

Now, they need to recuperate under the hot sun and scorching environment. Most of the injured and poisoned combatants already fell into a heatstroke. If it is not because most of them are combatants with good resilience, they may die anytime.

"Damn it!!" cursed Datun as he looked at his people suffering in the hot environment.

"Shut up, Datun. I have heard enough of your cursing already." said Mirva.

"Heartless Bitch, don't you feel something looking at your tortured people?" rebuked Datun.

"Of course, I feel something. But, what else can I do? Unless you want to break this alliance." said Mirva.

"That's it. I will back off from this alliance. Rather than killing Sur village, I am afraid my people will be the ones that die first." replied Datun.
