I Just want a Peaceful life

Another two weeks pass by since Angus showed some of his strength to others. During these weeks, Ian and the others undergo hellish training from Roy, the royal guard leader, and the teacher.

Ian, Axel, and Mia got personally trained by Roy while Millie was trained by the headmaster Antonio. As for Jayna, she is learning some of the master Ban's sword skills.

Meanwhile, Angus managed to create rune magic cards set for everyone. During these two weeks, he found that he could not create rechargeable high circle rune magic. He discovered that Roden Alloy is not strong enough to contain the activation high circle spell.

It is still possible to create ordinary high circle rune magic using Roden Alloy as a base. But, to make it rechargeable is a different matter. Angus found that the higher the circle spell, the greater the recoil towards the base material from various tests and experiments.

Roden Alloy only could hold until the third circle spell. After that, it will be nothing different from ordinary rune magic that could only be used once. Using Roden Alloy material to create one time use high circle rune magic is too overkill and wasting resources.

There are other cheaper materials that could do the same thing as the base material for one-time use rune magic. It is better to use the remaining Roden Alloy to create more low circle rune magic.

Besides finishing the Rune Magic Card earlier than he expected, Angus managed to procure high circle rune magic from Ernest. There are many kinds of shapes and forms of the high circle rune magic, such as sealed crystal, magic scroll, rough diamond, etc.

Most of them are in the form of raw crystal and magic scrolls made of high-grade monster skin. Angus also managed to procure a lot of necessary potions and supplies for the others. He also creates his own potion and poison for his personal use.

Now, Angus is staying at his townhouse manor inside his room. He is sitting in the bed while closing his eyes like he is meditating. However, instead of meditating, he is practicing using the battle system function.

Occasionally, Angus will be sweating all over his body. Some bruises and minor wounds also appeared on his body.

After a while, Angus opened his eyes. "Huff… Finally, I managed to defeat that damn assassin. Fiuhh… Frontal battle with them is more dangerous than I thought." said Angus while inspecting his status panel.

Host: Angus Victory

Age: 14 Years Old

MP: 257/257

Heritage chi: ???

Strength: 34

Dexterity: 34

Intelligence: 41

Vitality: 43

Soul Point: 124

His strength and Dexterity already need 160 soul points just to increase one point. As for Intelligence and Vitality, he needs 640 soul points just to raise one point. 

The requirement for the soul point started to burden Angus even with his seven soul points per day from the automatic battle system.

However, the increase also boosted his combat capability many times more than before opening the Gate of life. Now, he could kill the assassin leader inside the manual battle system, which is supposed to be around the border of third-grade combatants.

He could also kill teacher Oswalt, a spy from the Nergal kingdom, in a frontal battle. However, it took longer to defeat teacher Oswalt than the assassin leader since teacher Oswalt is proficient in barrier spells.

On the contrary to the advancement in status, Angus's mana started to slow down in growth after reaching the 200 point mark.

He only increased around 50 points in one year despite his unique breathing technique and powerful mana core. He speculated that it would reach the limit at the 300 point mark.

After checking his stat, Angus goes towards the bathroom to refresh himself. At this moment, Angus feels a strong mana fluctuation in the air.

Not only him, but all the combatants in the Firuman, especially the one with the sharp perception, also feel a strong mana fluctuation in the air.

Suddenly, a bluish-black portal appeared all over the Firuman at a random location. Some of them inside the sewer. Some appear in the middle of the street. Some appear inside the house. Some even appear inside the sea or above the sky.

At this moment, everyone knows that the portal of Endless Battlefield is finally open. Many of the youngsters were excited at this news. At the same time, the older ones feel sad as they couldn't enter the dimension.

Many of the national leaders are only silent at this news while the survivors of the previous Endless Battlefield reminisce about their past experiences.

Endless Battlefield is an ancient secret dimension that is very vast, like another world itself. The Endless Battlefield dimension will open its portals randomly inside the Firuman every 100 years.

The last time it opened the portal was 100 years ago, when some of the current national leaders were still in their teenage years. 

Because of the long period, many people often forget about this dangerous dimension except for the elf race, who lives for a long time. They constantly monitor the survivors of the Endless Battlefield or artifacts that come from it.

The Endless Battlefield portal will stay open for around a year. After that, it will be closed permanently. 

According to the survivor, any person entering the Endless Battlefield will need to reach the exit before the portal closes. Otherwise, they will be stuck there for a hundred years. 

Fortunately, there is a time difference between the real world and Endless Battlefield. One year in the real world is the same as a few years inside the Endless Battlefield.

The problem for those who enter the Endless Battlefield is not only surviving but finding the exit and passing through it.

However, it is not simple to reach the exit since the people will be randomly teleported after entering the portal. Some may be teleported far away from the exit, while some lucky ones may teleport near the exit.

According to all the survivors that managed to reach the exit, the exit was always guarded by high-grade beasts or monsters. This is the majority of the reason why there is a lot of casualty for the participant.

Because of this, the Endless Battlefield dimension is also called the Monster Belly dimension. Once inside, you need to go out alive or become a nutrition for the other living being inside the dimension.

After the opening of the dimension portal, Angus immediately got contacted by Jayna to gather at the Royal Academy. As Angus speculated, there is no other student that wants to enter the Endless Battlefield dimension.

Usually, those who enter this dimension are in desperate situations, searching for power, proving themself, looking for a challenge, or other unusual reasons. No other sane person will enter this Monster Belly dimension without a firm conviction or reason.

Despite the news of the dimension portal finally opening, Angus still retains his calm and refreshes himself while soaking in warm water. After that, he changed his clothes to the royal academy uniform before going towards the royal academy.

Arriving at the royal academy, Angus found that the others were already gathering inside the private training area.

Looking at Angus's arrival, "Alright, since everyone here. I will start to announce the one that qualified to enter the Endless Battlefield dimension."  said Roy.

Hearing this, everyone besides Angus and Jayna becomes serious and pays attention to Roy. After silent for a moment, "Ian, you have incredible talent in wielding spells and skill, but you lack experience and sometimes are too emotional." said Roy.

"Axel, you have great sense towards surroundings and good in close combat battle, but you are weak at dodging and lack reaction speed. Sometimes you are also overthinking.

"Mia, you have great power and are also good at close combat, but you never pay attention to the surroundings and are easily provoked by others."

"Millie, you have a great talent in healing spells and magic, but you are too soft-hearted and sometimes indecisive."

Hearing all Roy's remarks, all of them couldn't help but feel down.

"Based on your performance for the past weeks, all of you are still not qualified to enter the Endless Battlefield." said Roy with a stern face.

After a moment where everyone is feeling down, "However, no one also qualifies to enter the Endless Battlefield. All the ones that enter that dimension have their own reason with strong conviction.

"I already heard all of your reasons and decided it is silly and not worth it to trade with your life. But, all of you show a strong conviction."

"Despite the hellish training that you take every day, all of you never give up. This is already enough for me to let you enter the Endless Battlefield. So, students promise me to come back alive." said Roy.

Hearing this, "Yes, we promise to come back alive, teacher Roy," said Ian and others.

"Now, for Lady Jayna and young master Angus. Truthfully, I can't let you go since both of you are important nobles for the Heart Kingdom. But, I know you will find a way even if you get into house arrest."

"So, I can only say, may your heart guide both of you." said Roy.
