I Just Want A Peaceful Life Chapter 121

"Haa… This is going to be troublesome." said Angus.
At this moment, Mia hugs Millie while crying. Millie herself is excited but she can't move since getting hugged by Mia. Axel is getting paralyzed on the spot and keeps stuttering.
As for Ian, at first, Angus thought he was going to be okay. But truthfully he fainted on the spot while standing. This situation makes Angus helpless.
"It's okay, Jayna. The ghost is already gone." said Angus to calm Jayna.
"Emm… Really??" said Jayna while didn't open her eyes.
"Of course, You can open your eyes slowly now." said Angus.
"Alright... " said Jayna while opening her eyes and looking at the surroundings.
After that, Angus and Jayna help their friend that is still rooted on the spot. Then, They decide to go back. However, Millie wanted to continue searching for the ghost. Fortunately, the others were adamant to go back and end their ghost search.
As for Angus, he is quite exhausted after the familiar contract incident and also decides to go back. So, Millie reluctantly goes back to the dorm with the others.
Arriving at the dorm, the others immediately go towards their room to rest. Angus himself also decided to rest in his room.
While lying down on the bed, he opens his system panel and looks at the new familiar menu. After opening it, he could see the familiar panel. There is only one familiar for now which is the Mundus. Selecting it he could see some information about his Familiar.
Familiar name: ???
Race: Mundus
Grade: 1
Bond: Completely Subdued
There is no other information besides its name, race, grade, and bond status. Unlike his status panel, it is not showing its strength, dexterity, intelligence, and vitality status.
After checking there is no more information Angus called Mundus, "Hey, are you there?" said Angus.
Then, Angus's shadow is wobble and the Mundus appear from it, "Stupid Master, you finally called me out." said the Mundus.
"Alright, stop grumbling. Let's get you a name. Hmm… how about Black?" said Angus.
"Master, although I am your familiar. I am not your pet." replied Mundus while glaring at Angus.
"Hahaha.. Sorry.. Sorry… I am not truly good at giving someone names. Let me think a little bit."
After thinking a little bit, "Hmm.. How about Draven?" said Angus.

"Hmm.. Draven? what's it mean?" asked the Mundus.
"I don't know. It just pops up in my mind. Draven, the one that emerges from the shadow." said Angus
"Hmm.. Alright, from now on. My name is Draven." said Mundus.
"Good, Now I want to sleep. Go back to my shadow." said Angus while back to lying down on his bed.
Few days passed by and Angus managed to learn more about Draven. Like Angus speculated, Draven is a newborn Mundus. He is quite intelligent because of his bloodline.
A legendary creature like Mundus could inherit memory and knowledge from its predecessor through its bloodline. Creatures like Mundus are very infertile. So, to protect the newborn, it usually leaves knowledge and memory through the bloodline.
However, some of the knowledge and memory is locked. It could only be unlocked when Draven evolves into the next grade or reaches a certain mastery of his skill. Despite only grade one, Draven is already a very strong beast.
It could move through shadow and could somehow teleport anywhere within the darkness. Using this ability, Draven could even escape from a seventh-grade combatant. As long as it stays in the darkness or shadow. No one could target it.
The only reason why Angus could catch it is because of Angus's poison. Although it only paralyzes poison, it also disturbs the mana inside Draven and forces it to come out of the shadow.
Draven could also release a black mist that lowers the nearby temperature while it also kind of isolates space. This ability is the reason why Mundus is very dangerous. No one could escape easily after getting caught inside this thick dark mist.
Just by these two abilities, Angus knows that Mundus is a top stealth beast type. These two ridiculous abilities themselves will get stronger for each grade.
Angus also found that Draven could join his fight inside the manual battle system. As a creature with high space affinity, Draven realizes that Angus is entering a sort of special space.
'According to Draven, the manual battle system does not happen in my mind but in a sort of special space that is connected with my body. Haa… I need to investigate this more.' thought Angus.
Now, Angus is inside the library and looking for more information about Mundus. As a legendary beast, there are a lot of references about Mundus. But not all of them are true. Some of them said that Mundus is not a beast but a monster.

Beast and Monster are similar but different. Monster is less intelligent than a beast unless it manages to become a Monster Overlord. As for Beast, they could learn like any living being normally despite not evolving their grade.
In Firuman, the beast is a kind of rare existence almost to the point of extinction. However, a record in ancient times said countless beasts live in harmony with civilization society.
Mundus is quite famous among the beasts. Still, because of its dark nature, many people thought it was a monster rather than a beast. Since its dark mist could easily be mistaken for Miasma.
Moreover, Mundus is a ferocious carnivore beast that likes to hunt any living being. Because of this reason, Angus had a problem getting food for Draven. But, after inquiry more. Angus found that Draven could eat monster meat.
Monster meat is kind of precious but also hard to be processed. So, it is kind of useless for most people. It also easily spoils if not treated carefully. This way the price of monster meat is only slightly higher than normal meat.
Because of this reason, Angus has a lot of monster meat that he didn't sell inside his inventory. As long as Angus keeps fighting and killing monsters inside his manual battle system, he could keep providing Draven's food.
He also found that Mundus is a very dark nature creature. Not only it has a great stealth ability, but it also secretes its own poison in its claw or spike. Some references even say that its breath is also poisonous along with its dark mist.
Fortunately, Draven still could not excrete poison yet. Otherwise, it will be Angus and Jayna that become food for Draven.
After finishing reading about Mundus, Angus walked out of the library. He goes towards one of the abandoned facilities. This abandoned facility is not big but also not small. According to the record, it should be an ex-private facility of one of the masters.
From above, it looks kind of normal. But, according to Draven, there is a huge basement area below it. This is the place where Draven was born. After searching for a while, Angus still didn't find the hidden mechanism to open the basement.
"Damn it, are you sure there is a basement in this place?" asked Angus.
"Yeah, of course. That place is where my egg is stored." replied Draven telepathically.
"But, even with my scanning skill. I couldn't find it. Can you go back to the basement area?" asked Angus.
"Hmm.. That's a piece of cake." said Draven.
Then, Draven appears from Angus's shadow before entering the stone gap into the ground. After a while, it came back and brought a piece of broken black colored egg.
Looking at this, "Haa… Do I need to break it by force? But it may collapse along with the inside. Say, Draven, what is inside of this basement?" asked Angus.
"There are various things like books, some strange tubes, cages, other broken monster eggs, and many other things." replied Draven.
"Urgg.. Now, I want to explore inside of it. But, the hidden mechanism is concealed really well. Alright, let's search for it once more." said Angus.
However, after a long time searching, Angus still didn't manage to find the hidden mechanism. Before Angus knew it, the sun already set, and the darkness shroud the whole academy ground.
"*sigh* That's it. Let's come back tomorrow." said Angus.
Suddenly, Angus hears a soft whisper behind him.
"Get out~ Get out~" said a transparent person in a white blouse.
Looking at this, Angus could only shake his head.
"Alright, miss ghost, What do you want?" asked Angus casually.
"Get out~ Get out~ It's dangerous~" replied the ghost.
"What's the one that is dangerous, miss ghost?" said Angus.
"Bellow.. Deep underground is dangerous.. Get Out~" said the ghost.
"You know about the basement room in this place?" asked Angus.
The ghost didn't reply but only nodded. Seeing the ghost nodded, "Did you know how to get in there?" asked Angus again.
"Yes.. " replied the ghost shortly.
"Can you show me?" asked Angus.
"No.. It's a dangerous place. Get Out~" said the ghost.
"Ohh.. come on. You know I could subdue Mundus before. Could you trust me with this one?"
"I said Get Out~ Get Out~" as the ghost spoke louder, almost to scream.
