I Just want a Peaceful life

Phoenix Rain is one of the original skills from Fire Phoenix. Each of the fiery feathers is contained in a high fire elemental. It could pierce any ordinary armor without any resistance. Moreover, it will explode if it gets into contact with challenging material.

The Fire Phoenix herself could also control whether it would explode and the feather movement. In the past, Fire Phoenix could even destroy a whole big city to ash with it.

Unfortunately, Jayna’s mastery over the skill is nowhere near the Fire Phoenix level. Still, it is quite a dangerous skill. Even King Leon didn’t dare to casually receive such a skill directly.

Seeing there is no other way to escape from the Phoenix Rain, Merra takes out a gauntlet that is combined with a long arm guard.

“Tch.. You left me no choice, girl.” said Merra.

Then, Merra slaps the incoming [Phoenix Rain] while moving to avoid the explosion. Her movement is very agile as she hits the fiery feather with her gauntlet and moves away before it explodes.

Unfortunately, Jayna is already getting used to fighting against an agile and fast opponent with Angus. She knows how to corner an agile opponent like Merra. Still, it didn’t mean Merra would stay idle either.

Merra knows she is slowly getting cornered and soon will face many fiery feathers from all directions. Enhancing her body with mana, Merra decides to take out Jayna in the air first. *Whoosh* Merra jumps high and instantly gets near Jayna.

Just as she wants to pounce on Jayna, she finds Jayna smiling as she is already waiting for her while gripping her fist tightly in front of her chest. At this moment, Jayna slowly opens her palm and releases a small fiery ball in her hand.

“FUCK!!!” cursed Merra as her beastly instinct screamed in fear.

[Hellfire – Dawn Star] *BOOOOM* The whole arena was instantly enveloped by a strong fire explosion. Even the elder Yawan needed to reinforce the barrier to contain the explosion.

At the same time, someone comes out from the battle arena and lands outside with smoke all over her body. A moment before the explosion force hit her, Merra releases a strong mana burst to the surroundings and buys her time to avoid the explosion.

Unfortunately, the explosion is too fast and hot. Even with a strong protective layer of mana, Merra still couldn’t avoid getting roasted a little bit. In the meantime, Jayna is still flying in the air with ragged breaths as thick fire elemental surrounds the arena.

The battleground is lit on fire rather than just turning into magma sludge. After a few months, Jayna’s fire elemental mastery is totally off-chart compared to before. Now she could literally burn everything even without the help of Sacred Fire skill.

Combined with the Hellfire ancient power that increases her fire destructiveness, Jayna may hurt unprepared seventh-grade combatants badly.

“The winner is Jayna Heart.” declared elder Yawan apathetically.

In the meantime, “Huff… Huff… Fuck!! My beautiful fur!!” cursed Merra as she landed outside the battle arena.

Merra immediately turns ferocious, unlike her previous playful one and ready to pounce at Jayna in the battle arena. She didn’t care about her task, test, or surroundings anymore. She only wants to beat Jayna to a pulp for ruining her beautiful red fur.

Suddenly, she sees a black flash in front of her, along with a terrible amount of killing intent. This monstrous killing intent is something she never felt before.

Even when she is fighting against another seventh grade combatant, she never felt this deathly presence. At the same time, her reliable beastly instinct completely shut down in front of this monstrous black figure. All she sees, hears, and perceives is only her death.

*Tap* In this split second, the killing intent has suddenly gone as she finds Angus holding a red crimson sword near her head. She also finds a crimson-haired woman holding Angus’ hand from behind him, stopping him from completely cutting her.

“Angus, that’s enough!!” shouted Aunt Extalia.

Merra looks at Angus’ pitch-black eyes while still unable to recover from her previous death experience. Although she is not physically dead, she knows death is the thing she experienced before. At the last moment, her consciousness is actually dead and comes back.

If Aunt Extalia or Angus hadn’t allowed himself to be stopped, she would already be truly gone. Then, Angus retracts his hand and ignores Merra, who is slumping on the ground.

Her complexion is pale white like a corpse and she cannot control her digestion system anymore as she keeps releasing urine and excretion. In a normal case, she will feel humiliated and prefer death to publicly showing this pathetic act.

However, she has just experienced death and still has not recovered. *Whoosh* *Whoosh* *Whoosh* *Ting* *Ting* *Ting* a group of beast races attack Aunt Extalia and Angus.

All of them are parried and pushed back by Aunt Extalia easily. Angus himself didn’t care about them and went towards the exhausted Jayna in silence.

“Urg.. What did you do to the leader Merra?!!” groaned one of the beast races in pain.

They didn’t expect the crimson-haired woman in front of them to be capable of throwing them away like nothing. Although most of them are only four grade, they are still a beast race and have strong physical bodies.

Yet, they are still thrown away like some kind of weakling in front of this crimson-haired woman.

Just as they want to engage with Aunt Extalia, “S-Stop!! L-Let’s go back!!” said Merra as she started to recover from the shock.

Her face is still pale white and tears keep pouring from her eyes. Her body also keeps shivering as if she is inside the coldest place.

“Leader?!” said one of the beast races worriedly while helping Merra.

Aunt Extalia didn’t stop them as she walked toward Angus and Jayna. Merra ignores her group’s question while looking at Angus’s figures one last time before falling unconscious. Seeing this, the beast race immediately took Merra away and left the plaza.

As part of the beast warrior, they know Merra’s condition is not good. There is a huge chance she will turn into a disabled person after whatever Angus did to her. However, they also can’t do anything since this is still part of Nirvas’ territory.

It is already good the Altras didn’t hold them from attacking Angus and Aunt Extalia directly. Moreover, they know the Altras group has a great relationship with their opponent.

Leave with no choice, they decide to retreat and report everything to their warchief. As for their task to gather information about Anna, they could only abandon it for now.

While the beast race group retreated, “Brat, did you know you are creating more problems? Their warchief may not like this.” said Aunt Extalia.

“So?” replied Angus in a cold tone.

“Angus, it’s okay. I am fine.” said Jayna.

Jayna could feel Angus’ wrath as Merra was trying to hurt her despite already losing the fight from getting out of the arena.

“Alright.” said Angus as she didn’t release Jayna and kept helping her stand.

“Big Sis, are you okay? Did Big Sis hungry?” said Anna in worry.

“No, Anna. I am fine. Big sis just needs to rest.” said Jayna as she patted the little troublemaker.

Seeing Angus’ deep care for Jayna, Aunt Extalia knows this will be trouble for the future. Many people will definitely try to take advantage of his deep affection.

‘Well, that’s if they dare to do something to him.’ thought Aunt Extalia as she looked at Merra’s previous spot.

Behind Merra’s last spot, Aunt Extalia could find a long trail of a single cut across the plaza. However, this cutting mark is so precise and thin that it seems like it is not getting cut. Only people with sharp perception and swordmaster notice this change.

Most of the people nearby didn’t even notice the cut itself which shows how monstrous Angus’s skill with the sword is. Even Aunt Extalia, who has been practicing swords for a dozen years, cannot create this kind of effect.

‘Such a monstrous sword skill!!’ thought elder Yawan as he noticed the cut.

Besides Aunt Extalia and Elder Yawan, only monstrous people like Makar, Mira, and Darren notice Angus’ cut. Even most sixth-grade combatants in the plaza were unaware of such a big cut.

‘That cut… It seems I still underestimate Young Baron Angus.’ thought Darren.

Darren noticed Angus didn’t cut it with his sword, but he could still make such a precise and long cut across the plaza.

After sending Jayna outside the arena to rest, “Angus, are you fine with the next fight?” asked Aunt Extalia.

As an expert, she knows an emotional fighter is like a double edge sword. There is a huge chance for Angus to make a mistake and get killed in the next fight.

“Don’t worry, I am fine. Besides, she is not a match to me.” said Angus while looking at Princess Brigida, who was also walking towards the arena.

“Fine. Just be careful. We don’t know what they will do?” said Aunt Extalia.

“Sure.” replied Angus shortly.

Before Angus left for the battle arena, “Angus…” called Jayna from the side.

“Hmm??” replied Angus.

“Beat her or sleep alone.” said Jayna in a cold tone.

Hearing this, Angus smiles and returns to his usual playful temperament.

“*Achooo* Angus, burst her!!” said Anna while sneezing again.
