I Just Want A Peaceful Life Chapter 129

"Finally, I did it." said Angus as he looked at the production line he made.
"Fiuhh… No wonder it is not easy to set up a mass production line or something similar in this world. Just this simple production line needs a lot of planning, time, and resources." said Angus.
Then, he put a lot of elephant grass into one big basket before activating the runes. The moment he activates it, all the droid workers start to move autonomously.
After checking everything seems to be working properly, Angus leaves the basement and lets the droid along with various runes to work.
By the time he goes upstairs entering the townhouse manor, "Brother, are you done with your experiment?" asked Vergil.
As the matter of him creating the Miasma Curing Potion is a very delicate matter, Angus only told his brother that he is experimenting to create a new potion.
"Yep, you seem to be very happy. Is there good news?" asked Angus back.
"Of course, you may not know this since you holed up in the basement all day but the Monster Overlord got defeated. It means father will finally go home." said Vergil.
Since the Monster Overlord incident, Duke Victory rarely has time for his family. Although they often contact one another through communication devices or letters, they still miss one another, especially Vergil who always prioritizes family over anything.
"Really?? That's good news. I bet the whole capital city will also celebrate it." said Angus.
"Yeah, the king himself will give a formal announcement tomorrow. After that, the whole city will celebrate it." said Vergil.
"Hee.. That's kind of interesting. Say, Vergil, why don't we tour the capital city again tomorrow. I need some refreshment after all the experiment I did." said Angus
"I am not sure about that. You know there will be a lot of troublemakers during this time." said Vergil.
"Oh come on, Vergil. we could take care ourself. It's gonna be fun." said Angus.
"Alright, if you said so." said Vergil.
The next day, Angus and Vergil go towards the capital city. To not attract attention, they choose to wear casual clothes.
Fortunately, their mother is already back in the Victory mansion and not creating hassle for the two brothers. It is not that they hate their mother, but sometimes they couldn't stand the nagging from their mother, especially about clothes.

They leave the townhouse manor around 9 in the morning. The King will give a formal speech and announcement at 10. But, the two brothers weren't truly interested in the King's speech and only wanted to enjoy the celebration environment.
As they arrived in the capital city in the commercial section, they could see many people preparing to celebrate. Some people even close a few small streets for some kind of food court event. They put tables in the middle of the street along with many decorations.
Many food stalls have already started to sell their products. The environment is very lively, especially for the adventurer. As adventurer's main job is dealing with monsters, they could get back into their daily life where they could hunt monsters safely.
Previously because of the monster's undead presence, many adventurers couldn't hunt the monster without bringing a priest from a religious group to neutralize the miasma inside the monster's corpse.
However, now the monster undead is gone along with Monster Overlord which makes the life of adventurers become easier especially the ones with low grades. Not all the adventurers are high-grade combatants, most of them consist of lower grades.
During the start of the Monster Overlord incident, these people practically lose their main source of income. Lower-grade adventurers could only hunt a single monster.
However, the behavior of the monster changes, and they start work in a group during the Monster Overlord incident. They were forced to stay back from the monster habitat during this period for safety reasons.
It is also the reason why Dark Forest is closed during the Monster Overlord incident. It is also to reduce the casualty of adventurers.
Although most adventurers are mediocre and didn't get a formal education compared to the noble, they are still a necessary force to be recognized. Not only could they help cut down the monster, but they also the source of income tax for the nation.
Almost 50% of the main source of income tax comes from them. They may be the lower class in terms of social status, but they are also the one that makes the society and economy grow.
Many nations in the past neglected this kind of people and only created internal stability like an economic crisis to civil war. Low-grade adventurers also one of the potential forces that may help kingdom strife.
Because of their job nature, they often fight in life and death situations which easily force them to upgrade their core. So, it is possible that all these adventurers to become high-grade combatants that could help the kingdom.

This is also one of the reasons why none of the kingdoms in the Firuman rarely suppress adventurers. Unless they did not create trouble or break the kingdom's law, the nation usually left them on their own.
Throughout history, it is not wrong to say that most high-grade combatants are born from these adventurers. Although the probability for this to happen is as rare as a phoenix feather.
Soon, time goes by as the two brothers look around the street. After hearing the boring King's speech in the center of the plaza, they immediately try many kinds of different food.
They also visit the tavern bar that sells Fizzy Beer, Angus is kind of addicted to this sweet carbonated drink. He even wanted to create this drink on his own. But, knowing that it takes a lot of time and effort to brew the drink, he immediately gives up his idea.
After touring the capital while enjoying the celebration atmosphere, the two brothers decide to rest on the empty bar at the end of the street.
The bar's name is Crimson Tavern. Despite its menacing name, the bar is very elegant from the outside.
Looking at the bar, "Angus, are you sure you want to enter this bar?" asked Vergil in a low voice.
"Why not? the other bar or restaurant is already full. We just need to rest here for a little bit. Don't think too much about it." said Angus entering the bar.
"Ehh.. Wait for me." said Vergil follow up his brother entering the bar.
Entering the bar which is empty without any customers besides the bartender and the waitress, the two brothers found a luxurious and elegant bar.
Unlike the other bars, taverns, or restaurants, the place is very neat and clean. From Angus's observation, there isn't even a speck of dust inside of it.
'This place… Ah forget it, we just want to rest here for a while.' thought Angus.
Vergil also notices the strangeness of this place, but before he could say anything. the waitress already welcomed them.
"Welcome to the Crimson Tavern, Please take a seat." said the waitress.
During this time, Angus notices the strange movement of the waitress. her movement may seem normal for an ordinary person, but he could feel her movement is similar to his. Not only is there no wasting move but also refined.
'An expert!!' thought Angus.
Being welcomed and already entering the tavern, the two brothers couldn't help but take a seat in the near corner.
"Food or drink?" asked the waitress while giving the menu.
"Errr… " as Vergil didn't know what to answer while looking at the menu.
"What's this tavern specialty?" asked Angus suddenly.
Hearing Angus's question, the waitress startled for a second before returning to her smiling face, but Angus already caught this moment of change expression.
"We Crimson Tavern have excellent quality food. We also serve many kinds of different kinds of drinks. We also sell desserts such as parfait…" said the waitress while showing various kinds of food on the menu.
After browsing the menu for a little bit, "Hmm… I will have strawberry parfait and cold water." said Angus.
"Then, I will have this hot chocolate milk." said Vergil, interested in the drink's picture.
"Certainly, one strawberry parfait, a glass of cold water, and hot chocolate milk. Please wait for your order." said the waitress while picking up the menu from the two of them.
As the waitress left, "Angus, did you think this bar was kind of suspicious?" said Vergil lower voice.
"Vergil, that's kind of rude to say that while inside the bar." replied Angus while enjoying the comfy sofa he sat on.
"But, don't you think that is kind of weird especially because it is located between the commoner and slum area section. Also, there is no other customer beside us." said Vergil.
"Haha.. Relax brother, Don't overthink about it. Besides, we are here to rest and we got a good place to rest now. Anyway, I hear this year you will graduate.." said Angus while changing the topic.
The two brothers soon chat comfortably inside the bar while waiting for their order to come up. Suddenly, the weather becomes more cloudy and it starts to rain.
"Haa.. I guess we will be here for a while." said Vergil looking at the rain through the window.

The Rocky Shore
This is a LitRPG series. Every story you read here takes place in the same virtual world, with the same rules and limitations. Characters will travel, explore vast and dangerous realms, overcome obstacles, meet one another, enter into conflicts with one another, forge alliances, make horrible mistakes, and occasionally just die. A technological singularity has been achieved, and humanity has been trapped in a virtual world by a super-intelligent, self-improving artificial intelligence. This program is not malicious at all. In fact, it desires nothing except the happiness and fulfillment of every human it has copied into itself. If its decisions seem strange to you, that's only because its reasoning is far beyond ours. It recognizes that humans cannot be happy without enemies to overcome and goals to achieve, as well as the possibility of failure and death. The world it has created may be heaven or hell, depending on the free choices of the people it contains. The non-player characters who live in this realm have no idea that they are part of a vast computer system. They seem real enough, but there is no way to tell if they are truly self-aware. Even the system that created them isn't certain. This is world in which all the things that humans are used to dealing with in the abstract: skills, talents, knowledge, reputation, social status, morality, even love, exist as readable statistics that players can see and interact with objectively. This has many curious and complex effects on how people perceive themselves and the world around them. A few quick notes on the system: -Death is permanent -The system interface can only be accessed at certain locations. -Magic of diverse kinds is available and useful, but is not a good substitute for skills, physicallity, or mental prowess. Non-magical characters are common and competitive. -There is no inventory system. Characters must physically carry everything they wish to have on their person. -Healing is slow and difficult. Magical Healing is all but unheard of. Protagonists: Raymond Garrison- A man in his late twenties who used to work as a forklift operator in Idaho. His path leads him to work as a mercenary, protecting a small community of humans and goblins from the Seelie Fae who wish to exterminate them.
