I Just Want A Peaceful Life Chapter 30

"Come on Angus, we can do this all day unless you land a hit on me." Said the duke
"Shut up, old man. This is a child abuse." replied Angus while becoming desperate as more [Firebolt] kept coming at him.
"Really??! but you still won't hurt so let's increase the pace." as the duke summoned dozens of [Firebolt] at once.
"Shiitt!!" Angus looked at the incoming [Firebolt] that did not leave him any room to dodge. *BOMM*
"Hmm.. Did I hit too hard?" asked the duke.
"Damn it, old man!! that hurt." As Angus covers his body with mana.
"Ohh.. you are still alive. Let's con…" Suddenly, Angus arrived in front of the duke and attacked him at fast speed.
However, the duke could dodge all the attacks easily while occasionally countering with greater speed.
Soon, both of them already exchange hundreds of blows without any of them getting hit. Because of Angus's high perception and body control he could easily dodge his father's moves.
As for the duke Jacob himself, although he is limiting his own strength but as a grade 6 person his perception and body strength is already many times higher than Angus. He could see all the Angus move like a slow film.
However, during this time the duke noticed that Angus somehow managed to become better at his attack.
It seems that all his attacks always follow where Jacob will dodge. Still because of the different strength, Jacob just moves faster to avoid his attack.
'This is.. he is predicting my movement. No, he is learning my pattern. What a monstrous kid!!' as Jacob becomes harder to counterattack.
"You are still too early to challenge me in hand to hand combat, brat!!" As suddenly Jacob punched Angus stomach before he could dodge or react.

Angus flew backwards like a ragdoll and hit the wall hard. Even the enchanted walls receive a crack before they start to repair themself.
"Damn, I guess it's hard to control my strength at this level. Well, he will pass out for…" Jacob stops his sentence as he feels a dangerous aura from Angus direction.
At this moment Angus got notification, "Warning!! Foreign Energy detected inside the host"
"Warning!! Foreign Energy detected inside the host"
Suddenly, Angus feels a similar sensation from his inside. "T-this is… Damn it!! Don't die, Father." Before Angus fell into consciousness.
"Huh??!" as Jacob didn't understand any of this.
But, suddenly Angus released a beastly roar "RRRAAAAAARRGGGG…"
Before releasing a huge amount of concentrated mana towards the surrounding. Then, Angus disappeared and appeared in front of Jacob to punch at him using ten times speed than before.
However, using his reflex Jacob flick his finger and created [3rd Circle - Fire Shield] around him. Looking at his attack being blocked, Angus began to attack the [Fire shield] madly from various directions. *Bam* *Bam* *Bam*
Looking at this, "This is [Possession]. No, it's different. It feels like a burst of mana inside him but there is no trace of soul on it." As Jacob analyzes his son's situation.
At this moment, the attack becomes stronger and a crack starts to appear at the Jacob [Fire Shield].
"Tch… What an absurd strength. [2nd Circle - Bind]" as Jacob cast a mana chain to catch Angus.
However, Angus is too fast and easily dodges all the chain while trying to hit Jacob. After casting [Bind] several times Jacob notices Angus's power become greater but also becomes more reckless.
"This mana feeling is much more violent almost like those miasma but also different. But, the amount is really ridiculous. Better stop him first before it damages his body more." Jacob notice that Angus didn't care about his wound in his fist during attacking his [Fire Shield]

"You leave no choice, brat! [3rd Circle - Fire Wyrm]" Soon, a gigantic fire creature appears in front of Jacob and starts chasing Angus. Still Angus's speed is faster than the [Fire Wyrm] itself.
However, using this moment Jacob gathered a huge mana and cast another spell [4th Circle - Vulcan Shots]. Jacob raises his hand and creates a huge fireball on it. Then, the ball suddenly scatters into a tiny fireball before following Angus along with [Fire Wyrm].
Left with no area to dodge, Angus could only defend using his incredible mana. Using this chance, [Fire Wyrm] immediately wrapped around him.
Looking that Angus stopped, Jacob instacast spells to bind Angus. [Bind] [Entangle] [Mana Prison]. Angus immediately gets binded from this variety of spell.
However, Angus is still growling like a mad beast and trying to destroy the binding one by one. Before it could be released from its binding, Jacob arrived in front of him and touched Angus's head [3rd Circle - Deep Sleep].
Being hit by this spell, Angus immediately falls asleep like a log leaving only destruction in the room.
Looking at Angus falling into deep sleep and his mana starting to calm down, Jacob finally felt relieved.
"Haa… what a troublesome child. I thought only Leon needed to deal with this, now I also got this." As the duke brings Angus out of the training room.
The next morning, the duke family had breakfast together normally without the presence of Angus.
"Angus got a backlash when he tried to cast a spell?!" Asked Vergil to his father.
"Yeah, However. It's nothing to worry about. He will be okay in a week. I already check that there is nothing dangerous. Still you should let him rest and I will call a doctor to check him up." Reassure the Duke.
"Hmph… serve him right to try to show off when he is weak." said Jason coldly.
"Brother!!" Shout Vergil
"What?? it's his fault that he is lazy and weak." Counter Jason.
"Alright, That's enough!!" Reprimand the duke while leaking a little bit of his mana.
"Sorry, Father." said Jason and Vergil before both of them sit back.
"*Sigh* Anyway, I will go out for days or weeks. I suggest you mind your behaviour." as the duke finishes his breakfast and stands up.
Before he left his two sons, "Oh yeah one more thing. Don't let Angus fight anyone until I come back."
"Huh?! Why??"
"I said don't let Angus fight anyone. Did I make myself clear?!" As the duke speaks in a more stern tone.
"Y-Yes, Father." Both Vergil and Jason immediately replied.
Then, the duke leaves the dining room and goes towards Angus's room to check his condition.
During the way, 'Huft.. Luckily no one saw yesterday's event and the strain in Angus's body is minimal. Still what is that kind of mana.' Thought the duke Jacob before arriving at Angus's room.
Entering the room, the duke only saw his son sleep peacefully on the bed. Looking at his mysterious son, he felt a complicated feeling.
Before finally walking away to leave the room. But, he suddenly stopped. "Angus, you're already awake. aren't you?"

A Titan's Crusade
Erik Thayne spent most of his life being brutally ridiculed and tormented for his weight and physical appearance, among other things. A social pariah and diagnosed with an eating disorder no one has an explanation or treatment for, Erik spent years trying to overcome his issues with his personal image and escape the ridicule and vicious torment of his peers. After years of dedicated effort, and a fresh start in a town away from his childhood and adolescent tormentors, he had finally begun to truly realize what he'd been striving for all along. Only, fate apparently has other plans because in the blink of an eye, Erik found himself snatched from Earth and taken to another universe, another world, where he is offered the chance to be more than he'd ever imagined. Now, he has to fight to restore the Balance between Chaos and Order on a world of swords and magic, in a universe governed by the System's laws, which resemble those of RPGs from Earth. Erik learned to embrace the things about himself that others taught him to hate, using them to reforge his physical identity into something more removed from his old self-loathing. But can he learn to embrace the darkest parts of his mind just as he did the reviled aspects of his body and become who he needs to be to succeed in the task set before him? It might just prove easier to stalk in the dark as a monster than to walk in the light as a man... *This is my first time publishing anything I've written to a public audience. Due to formatting issues, I forwent traditional stat-screens for something a little less problematic, delineating stat screens by separating them from regular text with horizontal lines in a lighter-grey coloration. Let me know if you like them or not. Criticism is entirely welcome, but please don't hate on my work after only reading 1 chapter. This is a writing project I intend to complete but I have committment problems so we'll see how long this goes on. Also, fair warning, as the description implies, the main protagonist is intended to be someone who has been treated cruelly, developed antisocial tendencies, and ultimately has to question his own humanity--or lack thereof. This story is not intended to be brutally dark but I will definitely be trying to follow a darker theme. It is intended to be violent and some scenes later in the story might be...alarming. There will likely also be some light, non-graphic (think more implied with crude jokes and conversation than actual details, there will be no full-blown sex scenes)relationship scenes planned later and if you're opposed to either a bisexual or gay main character, stay away. I haven't yet decided which way he's going to swing but the odds on him being straight are relatively miniscule, and I've always wanted to write a story about a gay man who basically looks like a lumberjack because who doesn't like giving conventional stereo-types the middle finger? This will NOT be a harem story, and I have no intention to focus on romance over action--it's a consequence of character development where I'm concerned, not the be-all-end-all of the story. The cover-art does not, in any way, belong to me. It was an image titled the Druid King (by duskanmarkovic according to the file name) which I found on Google Images. Until I can get something commissioned, this is the best stand-in image I could find.

The FPD (Fart Police Department)
The FPD (Fart Police Department) The world’s norms and ethics have drastically shifted for the worse after an uncontrollable flatus outbreak absorbed the world’s inhabitant, causing major depopulation on a global scale. Conversely, to remedy the spread of this vulgar contagion, the Societal Gods who were partially indirectly responsible for causing the outbreak, implemented certain strict measures for the servile humans to follow. These strict policies were commonly known to the general public as Fart Commandments. Thou shall not relieve themselves in public without following the proper guided measures; thou shall not relieve themselves in private without adhering to the strict guidelines; each new-born and younglings should be taken to the nearest medical facility regularly for inoculation; loose bottoms shall not be tolerated at any governing venues and face-masks should always be worn appropriately. Failure to adhere to the above commandments would result in a mandatory life sentence without a court appeal or probation unless they are of influential births and have authoritative backers. In this twisted society which had been established today a model young female who adhered to the strict policies all of her life without questioning, accidentally broke one of the Fart Commandments and found herself entangled with a rebellious group of uncouth individuals who opposed the Societal Gods. To regain her innocence and social standing among the civil society, this young lady dared challenge the Societal God’s ruling by utilizing the absolute thing that they detested the most which were the destructive vapours of her flatus. Certainly, she will suffer the excruciating consequences of defying her lords’ commandments.

Return to Yesterday
This is a story about trust. A story about a girl with many names, none of which were hers, and a single second that wasn't really a second at all. It's a story about a friendship that shouldn't have been trusted but was, and a friendship that should have been trusted but wasn't. And most of all, this is a story of warning. Of a path that was taken when no other was seen, through a forest that can grow in an instant and may never fully be cleared. No two paths are the same. Nor are any two forests. But this is Io's path. And this is where it goes. (Also published on Quotev)
