I Just want a Peaceful life

A moment after the destructive shockwave from the two kings, Angus looks at the two kings standing in the air.

'This is absurd!! How come they could spend all of this enormous mana and standstill with only a little bit exhausted.' thought Angus while looking at the two kings.

Then, Angus notices a blue-colored horse that looks very strong and majestic. Feeling his master looking at the water horse familiar, "Hmp… That lowly horse is nothing to compare to me." said Draven in a prideful tone inside Angus's mind.

Hearing Draven's remark, "Did you get jealous?" replied Angus.

"Why should I get jealous over that stupid horse? If we were in the same grade, I wouldn't even need to move my finger to kill it." said Draven.

"Yes-yes.. You are the strongest." replied Angus to reassure Draven.

Over the time Angus is with Draven, he realizes that Draven is slightly childish over a few things. Sometimes, he is very picky about his food which consists of high-quality raw monster meat. 

Sometimes, he likes to prank other students while being invisible or hiding in the shadows. Fortunately, the prank is harmless and nothing dangerous.

At this point, Angus realizes that Draven is still relatively young since he is only a few months old and not genuinely mature despite inheriting a lot of knowledge through his bloodline.

The reason Angus is looking at the King Nexus familiar is that it is unique and rare. According to Angus's knowledge, it is an amphibian beast that should be extinct for a long time, even in the time of few ancient civilizations. 

It is called Blascus. A seawater horse that is rumored to become the ride of King of the sea in the legend. At first, Angus almost mistook it as a regular water horse beast, Blue Pegas, a water horse that lives in the ocean. 

However, he tossed this idea in his mind since Blue Pegas could only live in the water and cannot come out from the water. Besides that, Blue Pegas only could reach grade four as its limit.

Meanwhile, the King Nexus familiar has the aura of a grade six beast on the border of reaching grade seven.

As for its power, there is no way Blue Pegas could hold an attack of King Leon in his [Possession] state even with the help of King Nexus. It means that the one in front of him is Blascus, one of the strongest horse beasts.

Although compared to Mundus, dragon, or other legendary beasts, it is still weaker, but it is a lot stronger than the ordinary beast. 

In the first place, the beast itself is already rare in Firuman. To get a contract with a beast is like winning a small lottery, and getting a chance to contract a strong beast such as Mundus or others is like getting a treasure when people didn't do anything.

The chance is so tiny that it could not be called a chance anymore. So, getting a contract with a beast such as Blascus is already fortunate, especially if it could be nurtured until a high grade like grade six.

Seeing the two kings come back, all the people immediately gather to welcome them, including Angus. Looking at the condition of the two kings, Angus once again surprised. Both of the two kings look fine, like not having a hard battle at all.

Their rough breathing already calmed down and seemed like they could handle another battle like before.

'Such a fast regenerative ability. No wonder the seventh grade is called the realm of legend. With such a strong regenerative ability and strength, they are practically unkillable beings.' thought Angus inwardly.

Feeling Angus's stare, King Leon only smirks at Angus like challenging him. Seeing this, Angus could only shake in excitement while having his own smile. Angus was excited and imagined himself fighting such a powerhouse.

After the two kings come back and celebrate, King Leon's group rest at the nearby guest house inside the Royal Palace perimeter. At the same time, the two negotiators do their job while being accompanied by Duke Victory.

Now, inside the guest house, there are only three people. King Leon, Master Valeron, and Angus.

Master Valeron rests himself in his room while the King sits in the living area along with Angus. At first, King Leon also wants to relax in his own room, but he is curious about the teenager in front of him who has asked for his daughter's hand before.

For a while, the two people looked at each other. It is kind of torture for Angus since he feels like almost being killed every second. He feels like being at the tip of a cliff and almost falls into the ravine, yet he still didn't fall.

After a while, King Leon began to smile, "So, how is my battle with King Nexus? Did you think you could achieve this level?" asked King Leon.

Hearing such a question, "Of course, I could. I may even pass this kind of level in the future, my king." said Angus confidently.

"Hoo.. such a bold claim. Many people also dream and declare such a thing. Let's see if what you said is true or not in the future. However, you do qualify to claim such a thing since you already have such strength in your age."

"I bet no grade one combatant could defeat you even if they are from another race. Even a grade two combatant may have a hard time fighting with you." said King Leon as he saw through Angus's strength.

"As expected of his majesty, to even see through my strength." replied Angus.

"Don't underestimate the perception of seventh-grade people. You may hide it from others, but we seventh-grade people are different kinds of people." explained King Leon.

"Anyway, I could feel your mana core is stronger than an ordinary one. If I didn't feel its aura as a grade one, I might have thought you already a grade two combatant. Moreover, it could hide its aura from others." said King Leon.

"Err.." as Angus didn't know how to respond.

Looking at Angus's expression, "Hahaha… Don't worry too much about it. Still, as a king of heart, I need to ask you if it is possible to share such a forming technique to the kingdom?" asked King Leon seriously.

"I could actually share the technique with you. However, I doubt everyone could form the mana core with my technique." said Angus.

"Ohh.. Is there a harsh requirement?" asked King Leon curiously.

"There are two requirements. First is massive energy to form the core. Second, a body that could hold this massive energy. Based on my research the energy is more or less the same as the energy to supply the whole capital city for years." explained Angus.

"The only reason why I could form my mana core in such a way is because of a certain accident. I even almost lost my life during the process despite having the strength of a peak ordinary human." said Angus.

"Hmm.. so, you could form that kind of mana core because of the factor of luck." said King Leon.

"Yes, because of this, I don't truly want this technique to be spread out. As for a reason, your majesty already knows it better than me." said Angus.

"True, if what you said is true, then it will need a lot of living test experiments to be conducted. Furthermore, one of the easiest ways to gather such energy is from mana core, especially from other combatants." said King Leon.

"If such a technique spreads, sooner or later, there will be a massacre happening, be it used as test subjects or energy supply." Added King Leon further.

In Firuman, other combatant mana cores could also be used as energy supply. However, such an act is very taboo. Not only is it unethical, but it will also only lead to chaos and decrease one nation's strength if being left alone.

Because of this, everyone disdains such an act to use other combatant mana core and a strict law regulating it in every stable nation. Still, this is not guaranteed. 

Some power-hungry people who live in the underworld use this mana core from combatants since getting them is more accessible than through monsters. Their price is also lower than the regular mana core from monsters.

"Yes, your majesty is right. Although the mana core produced is very high in quality, it needs to be researched further and needs energy. This may create some problems in the nation even if it is done secretly." said Angus.

"Hmm… To think someone as young as you already think ahead like that. It seems the Heart Kingdom's future is already in good hands." said King Leon.

"This.. Your Majesty has overpraised me." replied Angus

Then, both of them keep talking about various things until Duke Jacob and two negotiators come back.

After checking everything according to the deal, King Leon's party immediately goes towards the teleportation room to return to their kingdom.

Along the way, They found a tall young man, and King Nexus welcomed them along with other royal guards during the journey.

"Come back so soon, Leon" said King Nexus.
