I Just Want A Peaceful Life Chapter 18

"This is.. Damn, I need to get out of here fast." said Angus.
Few minutes before the explosion, Jayna's group wandered while searching for the opponent.
"Damn it, where is that Angus? He is supposed to be beside us as the weakest. Now, we need to search for him too." Grumbled Princess Jayna.
Before long, she feels a presence in front of her. "Who's there?" said Princess Jayna.
"It's me, Ian. Hahaha.. This is really great. I don't need to search for you now, Brute Princess." Mocking Ian
"What did you say, commoner?" As Jayna is ready to battle.
During their three months stay in the royal academy, Jayna and Ian often fight with each other. Most of their fights end up in a tie before they exhaust themselves.
However, Jayna is better at her academic score than Ian and makes her the first ranker among the 1st year students.
Because of this, Ian always sought to fight and tried to win against Jayna, while Jayna herself felt the need to maintain the first ranking as the royalties.
Soon, They begin their fight. Jayna shots small flame balls towards Ian rapidly [1st circle – Flame Shot]. But, Ian already expected it and dodge them easily while casting his own spell [1st circle – Aqua Ball].
Looking at the fast-approaching Aqua Ball, Jayna engulfs her fist with fire mana and punches the approaching water ball [Fire punch]. The collation between them creates a mist of water steam that Ian uses to his advantage by launching a close combat attack.
Then, both of them were entangled in their fight. While they fight furiously, Jayna's and Ian's group also start their own battle. Jayna's group may have fewer people than Ian's, but they are stronger since the princess herself is often training them.

A few minutes later, a roar was heard from the nearby bush. Two brown wolves approach the group after hearing the commotion. The brown wolf releases their bloodlust and makes all the students paralyzed on the spot beside Jayna and Ian.
Looking at this, Ian and Jayna stop fighting each other and ready themselves to battle the approaching brown wolf. But, they underestimate the brown wolf's speed and strength. Before they could react, Ian and Jayna were already knocked down by the brown wolf's claw.
Fortunately, the barrier erects in time to protect both of them. Using this momentum, one brown wolf pinned Jayna inside the barrier and kept attacking the barrier.
While the other brown wolf fight pursues Ian and is knocked back far away. At this moment, Jayna's mind is utterly in chaos. Although the barrier is active and protects her, she still felt her life almost gone at the last second.
Combined with the bloodlust and pressure released by the brown wolf, she begins to paralyze on the spot while her mind goes into chaos.
"I am going to die.. I am going to die.. I am going to die..
I am going to die.. I am going to die.. I am going to die..
I am going to die.. I am going to die.. I am going to die.. ARRRGGGHH" screamed Jayna.
At this moment, her hidden mana becomes chaotic and erupts brightly into an explosion. Her expression turned into a crazed one while screaming. The scream is enhanced with mana and pushes the brown wolf back. Then, it is quickly trying to escape from Jayna's aura.
Before it could get away, Jayna already pinned the brown wolf on the ground using her hand. "DIE DIE DIE!! YOU MAGGOT!!" As she brutally shreds the brown wolf into pieces.

After finishing off the brown wolf, she is going after the nearby paralyzed student as she couldn't differentiate between ally and foe."DIE!!"
But, before she could approach the other student. A person in black clothes appeared from her shadow and restrained her [2nd circle spell – shadow bind].
"Princess… Calm down. No one will kill you." The black-clothed man tries to calm Jayna.
Still, the [Shadow Bind] could only hold her for a moment before Jayna mana exploded once again. At this moment, behind her is a figure an elderly with a majestic presence before going inside Jayna [Soul Possession].
Then, Jayna attacks her shadow guard before he could react [Barrage Fire Punch]. The power of the punch is vastly different from the previous and launched the shadow guard dozens of meters away.
At this moment [2nd Circle – Entroot] [2nd Circle – Binding Chain]. The teacher already appears one with others and restrains her.
Then, Jayna begins to mutter in a sort of ancient language [WEAK.. WEAK.. All OF YOU WEAK. YOU CAN'T RESTRAINT ME]
Under the aura of Jayna, all spells are degrading before they turn into nothingness. All the teacher feels dread at this moment, they feel like in front of the presence of a legendary 7th-grade combatant.
In the presence of Jayna, all the teachers cannot move a single bit. Before Jayna could attack one of them, she heard chanting from far away.
"....Will of wind and light encased by storm. [4th Circle – Elemental Blast]" the headmaster Anthony comes out and casts his spell toward Jayna.
A surge amount of lightning, wind, water, and fire elemental appears from the magic diagram. They combine together into a vortex in front of Anthony and push Jayna back towards deep in the forest.
Meanwhile, inside the deep forest, Angus hurrying himself to go to the base. Suddenly, his instinct flared up and immediately moved away from his spot [Rodeo Maneuver].
Using his strange footwork technique, he dodges the incoming Jayna that landed on his previous spot, creating a crater on the ground. At this moment, Angus could see Jayna slowly crawl from the crater with tattered clothes.
[How dare you maggot hit me?!!] She releases another powerful surge of mana that makes her body veins revealed like it is going to rupture anytime.
Looking at this, Angus knows that the situation is going from bad to worse. 'Just what the hell did I do that I deserve this. Haa.. Better wrap this up.' thought Angus releases his own killing intent to counter Jayna's madness aura.
Feeling the dread sensation from Angus's killing intent, Jayna began to freeze. [W-who are you?]
Angus only looked seriously at Jayna before saying, "Tch… Weakling"
Hearing Angus's response, "W-WHAT DID YO…" She once replied without an outburst.
At this moment, Angus approaches her while mimicking a beast movement [Beast Walk]. Along the way, he throws his hidden daggers toward her head.
Jayna managed to react to the sudden attack by pummeling the dagger using her fire punch. As Jayna got distracted from his dagger, Angus approached her back and slapped her back neck heavily.
Less than a second later, Jayna feels like being electrocuted and howls loudly, "ARRRGGHH" before slumping to the ground unconscious.
Looking at the petite body in tattered clothes, Angus gave his coat towards her and removed his melted hidden dagger away before he waited patiently for the teachers.

Ars Magica
Our vision comes back into focus. Our eyes, while being able to perceive the immediate surroundings, still leave us with our minds uncomprehending towards what is actually occurring. Sure, there are definitive things that we can focus on, like the fact that we're either out upon the open sea or the open ocean, there not being much of a difference with no land in sight, as well as the fact that we appear to be upon a haphazardly constructed metal boat, whose seams are barely able to keep a hold of themselves in the crashing waves. However, that does not let us understand what exactly is causing the waves in the first place. If we were to rewind time, we'd find ourselves upon a calm sea under a peaceful sky with the only difference, being a small whirlpool that would be the precursor towards this uproar around the boat. Lightning flashes in the sky, with no clouds being near, and anyone actually manning the boat has either died towards the cause of the smashing tides in the first place, or are fighting amongst the flashes of lightning, all while trying not to become devoured, demolished, and utterly decimated by the beast roiling in the whirling waves. To better understand exactly what is happening here, there is one singular event that needs to be understood, that needs to be explained, and that is the arrival of a creature named Dave. Stepping back from current events and going towards this creature's first appearance in the world, we begin to hear the sound of water slowly dripping across rocky ground. The cavern is utterly silent except for this one constant, its cause feeding channels downwards, sloping towards cracks in the rubble along the floor from broken stalagmites and stalactites. And there, lying on top of something which had fallen over recently, judging from its cracks, is a person, the creature named Dave. His form is fast asleep, either from the impact or from an intoxication, judging from the smell upon its breath. A bright light suffuses into it for a second, giving life towards the pale skin, before it slowly dies down back to the comfortable black of the cave that it's within. Before this moment in time, Dave did not exist in the physical world. At least, not in the reality that he finds himself born into. We do not know whether or not his existence is simply a cosmic joke, or something that is being played out on purpose. All that we do know, is that one moment, the body was not in the cave, and simply formed in the next. The actual earliest time that we know Dave exists, is the interpolation of the memories of J-209, which we'll begin looking into shortly to gain context towards the coming narrative that is being written and hastily trying to keep itself written. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Warning: This story has several things which might turn its readers away. The first is that this story has shifting points of perspective. Don't worry about that previous sentence too much though, as the main character will always have a first person perspective associated with them. However, any other character from which we're viewing the story from will either be in third-person, as we are not necessarily in their shoes at the moment, or in first person, given that the narrator is an actual physical presence within the story. For the most part, chapters will be self-contained with their perspectives, so there will not be an abundance of switching perspectives within the same chapter. The most that an average reader would have to worry about is the fact that perspectives can switch between chapters. The second thing is that the main character is a bit on the 'special' side of things. He's not exactly mentally there most of the time, so there will be some times that his personality or his thoughts do not actively align with his actions. The third, and final thing of importance, is the fact that past the first couple of chapters, nothing has been planned in advance. There are arcs and plots that I want to do, want to implement, or have already been set into motion from our main character's introduction to the world, but the method that I use for my story writing and generating leads towards a bit more random chance being enabled. Basically...there's a lot of dice rolling behind the scenes. To not complicate the story further than its regular LitRPG elements, the rolls will not be publicly available. However, there will be knowledge within the author's notes on whether or not there were positive or negative critical rolls that had occurred within the chapter. You have been warned. Updates: Mondays & Fridays (Schedule permitting) Typical Chapter Length: (2,000-3,000)
