I Just want a Peaceful life

Chapter 217: Devastating Aftermath

*Cough* *Cough* Anna coughs a few times before opening her pitch-black eyes looking at Angus.

"Angus!!" called Anna while hugging Angus.

"Huft.. Huft.. Anna, are you okay?" asked Angus, still in a ragged state and rough breath.

"Hmm.. I think so. I got into a dark, scary place. Then, I heard many annoying voices. They told me to stay with them. But, I refused them, and I told them I only wanted to stay with Angus. After that, the scary place disappears, and I wake up." explained Anna.

"Ehh.. Angus is hurt?!!" said Anna as she just realized Angus's condition.

"Huft.. Huft.. Don't worry about it." said Angus.

"Yeah, you should not worry about this anomaly boy. He is not going to die just because of this." said the Darkwing Bat from behind Angus.

"You.. You are the one that hurt Angus. Grrr!!" said Anna as she was ready to fight.

Anna suddenly creates a claw, spiky armor, and a spike on her head. All of them are made of dark miasma in black color. Unlike before, her miasma claws are many times bigger than before. Angus and the monster are surprised at Anna's transformation.

"Stop, Anna. Run!! He is not someone that you could fight." said Angus.

However, Anna already charges the humanoid Darkwing Bat. The Darkwing Bat dodges Anna's attack easily. As Anna keeps attacking the humanoid Darkwing Bat, Angus tries to move his wounded body only to get more injured.

"Damn… Move!! Damn it!!" cursed Angus, helplessly afraid of losing Anna again.

In the meantime, the Darkwing Bat keeps avoiding Anna's crude attack easily.

"Is that all? That's quite disappointing." said the Darkwing Bat with a lazy expression.

She flicks her hand and hits Anna, throwing her back near Angus. Then, Anna opened her mouth, and a concentrated miasma accumulated in front of her mouth. In less than a second, it becomes a tiny black ball.

"Hoo… That's something interesting." said the Darkwing Bat with a playful tone.

Then, Anna shoots the black ball towards the humanoid Darkwing Bat [Miasma Blast]. *BOM* Unlike her previous Miasma Blast, the attack is really on a different scale and destroys anything on its path.

However, the humanoid Darkwing Bat could repel the destructive Miasma Blast with only her hand. After a while, the energy in the Miasma Blast is gone, and the Darkwing Bat's hand only get scorches a little bit while her body is completely fine.

"Hee.. It scorched my hand a little bit." said the Darkwing Bat playfully.

At the same time, Anna is slumping on the ground, exhausted, and her transformation is gone. The humanoid Darkwing Bat looks at Anna, then Angus, who still tries to move his body with a smirk.

"Hahahaha… this is interesting. Alright, I will leave the two of you for now." said the humanoid Darkwing Bat.

"Huh?! What do you mean?" asked Angus.

"It means both of you will live for now. And you, anomaly boy, make sure you keep her safe. Otherwise... well, let's just say you will never want that to happen." said the Darkwing Bat.

Suddenly, a roar was heard from far away. *BOOORRR* The thunderous roar is deafening and shakes the surrounding.

"Oh my... My time is up. Bye, Anomaly boy and you little girl. See ya." said the humanoid Darkwing Bat before disappearing.

As their leader disappears, the surrounding Darkwing Bat also flies away towards another direction, leaving Anna and Angus alone.

After leaving both of them alone in the scorching desert, "Damn.. Huft.. Just what the hell is happening. Huft… " said Angus.

"Angus, are you okay?" asked Anna worriedly while dragging her exhausted body.

"Yeah, it's okay. Just focus on recovering yourself." said Angus before taking out a few healing potions and a big round pellet on the ground.

Then, using his mouth Angus bite the big pellet. This is a special medicine he prepared for this situation. He knows that he will confront a dangerous situation inside the Endless Battlefield dimension and may be forced to use his heritage chi like now.

Because of this, he makes this special medicine pellet using various rare herb ingredients. The production cost of this one pellet cost him almost 100 thousand gold coins, and it is nearly the same as the artifact price.

However, the effect is also miraculous. After eating the big pellet, Angus controls his mana and engulfs his body in blue flame.

The blue flame absorbs the potent nutrition inside the pellet and heals Angus's wound. His ruptured vein and damaged organ started healing at a rapid speed. A few moments later, his wound is healed, leaving only various outer scars in his body.

Looking at the scar, "Haa.. I hope Jayna will not be mad at this." said Angus while applying potion into his outer wound.

Angus also finds Anna sleeping near him on the desert ground peacefully while muttering, "Bubble.. Bubble..."

Looking at the childish face Anna has, he couldn't help a sigh.

"Is this what the master feels when he adopts us?" thought Angus.

While Angus and Anna recuperate, the other village is ultimately in devastation. During the time Angus and humanoid Darkwing Bat fight, the village leader and a few fifth-grade combatants finally manage to fend off the incoming high-grade Darkwing Bat.

Just as they wanted to retreat to the Ancestral Ruin, A bright light appeared on the horizon along with a tremor.

"T-This… the fight of the seventh-grade realm!!" said Estar while retreating.

"I am not sure who is fighting, but the other one is definitely another Monster Overlord." said Datun.

They could feel the clash of two different energies from Angus and humanoid Darkwing Bat during their retreat. Each time they clash, the surrounding desert is trembling. They sense dreadful situations, and they decide to run faster towards Ancestral Ruin.

Suddenly, all the village leaders feel two enormous concentrated energies from behind. Soon these two enormous energies clash with each other and create a massive shockwave towards the surroundings. *BOOMM*

Looking at the approaching massive shockwave, "Shit!! Hurry!! Gather here!!" said Datun.

Holding his big hammer, Datun creates a brownish shield in front of him and the other fifth-grade combatant in triangular formation [Triangle Stone Shield].

Mirva's group also makes a formation and creates a massive bluish barrier with the others [Blue Water Barrier].

Likewise, Estar also creates a formation while brandishing his two twin swords [Horizon Edge Shield].

Farkas, who almost arrived at the Ancestral Ruin's entrance, keeps running in the far distance, hoping to enter the Ancestral Ruin first before the shockwave comes. However, the shockwave spread fast in the blink of an eye and hit everyone in the surrounding area.

The three village leaders begin to hold their ground with all their strength, but the shockwave is powerful and starts to crack their defensive formation. Some of the combatants even blew away from the force.

"Hold on!! Hold it with all your might!!" shouted Datun while giving him everything to maintain his shield formation.

At the same time, Farkas's group miscalculated their position, and just as they reached the Ancestral Ruin's entrance, the shockwave came and hit everyone. Because of the force, Farkas, thrown off, enters the Ancestral Ruin with some injuries.

However, his people are not lucky and entirely obliterated by the strong shockwave. The moment they touch the shockwave, their body is destroyed into nothingness. The combination of Miasma and chi is too devastating for an ordinary combatant.

Even the Ancestral Ruin Barrier is shaking for a while and shows how devastating the clash between the two energies is. Farkas could only see the shockwave obliterate his people and hit the barrier with a complicated feeling.

Fortunately, the shockwave soon recedes, and the surrounding area back to the calm hot, scorching desert. The three village leaders managed to survive the shockwave, with only a few people getting killed by the shockwave.

They immediately take some mana potion before running back to the ancestral ruin. They didn't know when another similar devastating shockwave would occur.

The only group that survives without casualty is the Sur village's ambushing team. When they feel the monster overlord aura, they are already close to the Ancestral Ruin entrance and could evacuate from the area.

They didn't even encounter the Darkwing Bat horde on the way. When the devastating shockwave comes, they are already inside the Ancestral ruin looking at the whole barrier trembling.

A few moments later, the other village leaders and a few people arrive at the Ancestral Ruin in poor condition. Currently, their number is reduced significantly to only eight to seven people per village group.

Looking at their current number, all three village leaders have complicated expressions such as regret, grief, sorrow, and anger. As the village leader, they are practically the one that sends these people to their doom when they decide to make this alliance.

However, after looking at the Farkas, who lost all their people during the shockwave, they changed their minds.

Farkas is the one that first abandoned them, but looking that all his people did not survive the shockwave along with the grievous injury he received, they thought of killing him here.

If it is not because of the absolute rule of the hidden group to not have a significant fight or conflict inside the Ancestral Ruin, they will already kill Farkas. Entering the Ancestral Ruin, the three village leaders immediately recuperate themself.
