I Just want a Peaceful life

Chapter 240: Mysterious Force

*BAM* The greatsword cuts the bubble directly at a speed that is not too fast yet also not too slow.

Then, it stops exactly on the top of the ground while everything behind the bubble is cut into two until a few meters away. The bubble itself is still intact in the air despite being cut by the greatsword.

"Hmm.. The bubble here is denser than the one I cut before." said Angus.

Jade and Warton, who perceive every Angus movement, seem to be looking at miracle work. On the contrary to their expectation, Angus's slash is entirely normal. No mana fluctuation and no complicated technique, just a completely normal sword slash.

The only difference they could feel was Angus's aura before cutting the bubble. But, after that, everything is normal. Like an ordinary person waving the greatsword. This makes both of them look at Angus confusedly. At the same time, Draught began to laugh loudly.

"Hahahaha… As expected of a natural weapon master. No wonder you question me if I could make your sentient weapon or not before. In truth, you have already reached the pinnacle in terms of weapon mastery. Right, boy?" said Draught.

"Well, kinda.." said Angus while scratching his head.

"W-Wait.. Natural weapon master? Pinnacle of weapon mastery? How? He looked like just a teenager turning into an adult." said Warton.

"*Sigh* Warton, you may be talented and could be said to be one of the best greatsword users in Porros. However, the world is vast, and many things could not be comprehended with logic, especially in this magical world." said Draught.

"Unless you see the world and gain experience on your own, you will only become a frog in the bottom of the well. I bet in terms of experience, you are less than Jade, who is still in grade six." added Draught.

"I admit Porros is a great place to nurture weapon art users. However, to become a true weapon expert, you need to experience the world and many things." advised Draught.

"Look at the little girl over there. She is the same age as the boy, but she is already brave enough to enter this dimension despite her weak combat power to experience new things."

"I bet her combat prowess has already increased by leap-bound since the first time she came to this dimension." said Draught while pointing at Jayna.

Once again, everyone was startled at the old man's word. It seems that he knows everything about them just from a glance.

"Right, anyway as I promised before, Boy. You could take one thing from my personal treasury. Since Jade's sentient weapon needs some time before reaching the final stage, why don't we get your reward now." said Draught.

"Master Draught, you cannot do that." said Warton.

"Why not??" asked Draught

"The elders will never agree with this." said Warton.

"It's my personal treasury. So, why do I need those fools' permission? I could take anything I wanted from it. Alright, let's go now." said old man Draught while starting to walk away.

Seeing this, the others couldn't help but follow the old man Draught. Even Warton reluctantly decides to follow them. Soon, they come down from the mountain and walk towards the gigantic stone castle.

On the way, they passed a few people who immediately bowed and greeted old man Draught as soon as they saw him.

Seeing this, "Old man Draught, it seems your prestige in Porros is bigger than before." said Jade.

"Hahaha… That's because of your help. Without you, I could never succeed like now." replied Draught.

"That's just one time. Besides, I just happened to meet you at that time." replied Jade.

"Don't be too modest, Jade. You always like that.." as Draught and Jade chat with each other while all of them keep walking toward the stony castle.

They managed to enter the castle without any obstruction until they met a small hunched-back old man.

"Master Draught, it is rare to see you here." said the small old man.

"Good to see you too, Master Brogy. I just happened to take something in my treasury." replied Draught.

"I see. Then, may I ask who is the group behind you." asked the old man.

"Oh, they are Jade and his group." replied Draught.

After looking at Jade's group for a while, "Hmm… Master Draught, you don't mean to give something from your treasury to these outsiders, right?" said the old man.

Hearing this, Draught's face became solemn and replied, "So, what if I want to do that?"

"Master Draught, you can't.." said the old man.

Before he finished his sentence, "IT'S MY TREASURY!! Who has the balls to prevent me from taking something from it." shouted Draught as the entire stone castle trembled. *BRRRT*

"Master Brogy, I advise you to choose your words carefully. Otherwise, I might just end you right here and now. Also, tell the others not to bother me for a while or.. it will be me that ends Porros." said Draught while the stone castle stopped shaking.

Then, Draught continued walking while ignoring the frightened old man. The other couldn't help but be surprised at this situation, especially Angus. When the old man Draught screams to the master Brogy, he feels unexplainable energy coming from Draught.

This energy is so mysterious and powerful that it could force everything. Angus feels like the surrounding is forced to comply with this energy. Because of this, Angus becomes more curious about the old man Draught.

Not only could he see through everything, but he also had a mysterious force that seemed to bend the world itself. Angus couldn't help but think about what kind of help Jade gave in the past for this monstrous old man.

While thinking all of this, Angus and the others keep following Draught silently. After the Master Brogy obstruction, no other person dares to prevent Draught anymore.

'Interesting... even this place has some seventh-grade combatants. No one seems to dare to get in the way of the old man. This old man seems to be more powerful than I thought.' thought Angus while he detected everyone in the castle with [Great Mana Echolocation].

After staying inside the high-grade monster territory for more than a week, Angus subconsciously uses Great Mana Echolocation to detect his surroundings.

At first, he thought only high-grade combatants stayed in this castle. But, he found some of them actually seventh-grade combatants when Draught released his strength to shake the whole castle.

Feeling all of these seventh-grade combatant gatherings, Angus couldn't help but be surprised. Usually, seventh-grade people are the type that will never bow down to anyone. The majority reason for this is their strength.

Seventh-grade is a legendary realm that only some people could achieve. Some experts said that this realm is where you get unparalleled power. Having this power will automatically change people's worldview.

However, seeing that seventh-grade combatant like Warton being ordered around by Draught makes Angus think again about this seventh-grade combatant. As Angus thought all of this, they finally arrived at the gigantic black door.

During the way to the gigantic black door, there was a row of full metal armor. Angus and Gilford could notice that every one of them is a battle golem or something similar. It is also possible every single one of them is a colossus in small form.

Based on Gilford's knowledge, Angus found that Colossus actually could have a small form, but their combat prowess will be similar to the high-class battle golem. Although they are more agile and durable than a battle golem, they become less destructive in small form.

This is also the reason why everyone hardly distinguishes between two of them while they are in the inactive mode.

"Tch.. What a waste of material for such a big door. Well, no matter.? Boy, come over here. Oh yeah, what's your name again? I never asked about it. Hahaha..." said Draught playfully.

"Er.. Angus. Angus Victory, sir." replied Angus while speechless at the old man's behavior.

"Don't call me sir. I am just a poor old man. You could just call me old man Draught. Hmm… Victory. If I am not wrong, Jade also has that surname before. Are you somehow related to him?" asked the old man.

'The poor old man?!!' thought everyone in their mind except Anna, who was looking around with curiosity.

"Yes, si.. I mean old man Draught. I am his nephew." replied Angus.

"Hahaha.. Then it seems fate truly does his deed. Alright, stay behind me and the others, please give us some space." said Draught.

As Angus stays behind Draught and the others give them some space, "Oh yeah, Warton, while I am gone, please take care of the others otherwise.. Let's just say you don't want to know about it." said Draught.

"Y-Yes, master Draught." replied Warton.

Then, Draught began to take a deep breath. After inhaling and exhaling for a while, Draught's aura becomes more dreadful and majestic. Angus feels that he is standing in front of a giant that gives off an unexplainable pressure.

Although the old man Draught is not intended to pressurize him, Angus's sharp perception managed to perceive this mysterious force.

He couldn't help but be pressured by the power itself, even though he didn't want it. At this moment, he hoped not to have his sharp perception.

While Angus thought all of this, "[Open]." said Draught in an unknown language.
