I Just Want A Peaceful Life Chapter 157
Advertisement
As the two phoenixes search around, Jayna could feel the presence of the two phoenixes from far away. Sensing the aura of the two phoenixes, Jayna's eyes become glowing red. She immediately feels hatred and immeasurable anger from the inside.
The memories of being betrayed by the two phoenixes and sealed for a long time coming to her mind. Aware of her unstable emotion, she begins to circulate [Arctic Heart] at full power to calm her mind.
During this time, Angus realizes the condition of Jayna. He could feel the crimson fire mana around Jayna's body, ready to explode anytime. Angus immediately helps Jayna to calm her mana and emotion.
According to Jayna's story, both of the sisters of phoenix are old and strong beasts. Angus guesses that they may have the power of grade six or probably grade seven. He realizes that if she is going berserk now, it will reveal their location.
At this moment, it is suicide to fight such an opponent. They could only hide or escape from them for the time being.
With the help of Angus, Jayna managed to suppress her agitated emotion. But, she decided to keep using [Arctic Heart] for the time being as she still receives more memories from the fire phoenix remnant.
At the same time, a Green phoenix called the Green Goose feels that her sister's presence is suddenly gone. However, she could get away as she still got entangled with the persistent seventh-grade Nean Lion.
Furthermore, both of them are resistant to fire. Because of this, none of them receive any significant damage.
"Nean Lion, Let's stop fighting. We didn't have any enmity one with each other before." said the Green Goose.
"Kakaka… Why?! Are you afraid?" replied the Nean Lion.
"Hmph.. Of course not. I still have more important matters than fighting with you." said the Green phoenix before flying away.
"Tch.. What a coward.." said the Nean Lion before going back to his lair.
Meanwhile, Millie looks at the blue sphere in the black-robed man's hand. According to the black-robed man, who is called the soul keeper, he could heal Mia's wound with the help of a blue phoenix soul.
There is a connection between body, mind, and soul. Each of them is interconnected mysteriously.
The soul is the most mysterious force, strong yet also fragile at the same time. Even with the soul keeper's long experience, he still couldn't unravel all of its power.

Because of the mysteriousness and bizarre feeling that souls give, it becomes taboo and unethical to play with one soul. This also makes Millie hesitate to use this art.
Looking at Millie hesitated, "Little girl, although I still have not unraveled all things about the soul. From my experience, I know an absolute truth about the soul." said the soul keeper.
"There is no bad or good soul. It is only a stronger or weaker soul. It means all souls are the same regardings their origin. The soul of a phoenix and the soul of an insect are the same. The only difference is their soul force." explained the soul keeper.
"All souls that are already detached from its vessel are the same. Be it people, beasts, plants, or even insects, all of them are the same."
Now, think about it. This is not a soul of being but a soul of insects or other insignificant beings. Did you need to care about them?" asked the soul keeper.
Hearing this, "Ermm… No. But..." said Millie before stopping.
After thinking for a while, "Alright, please use the art of soul to help Mia." said Millie resolutely.
"Good... however, transplanting souls is an advanced technique yet also delicate matter especially using the phoenix soul. One wrong move may kill your friend. That's why I will do it." said the soul keeper.
Then, the soul keeper put the blue-colored sphere into Mia's body. Suddenly, her body was enveloped by blue fire. All of her wounds healed rapidly. Even her losing arm is starting to regenerate at a fast rate.
"Can you feel it? The power of the soul within your friend's body." asked the soul keeper.
"Yes, I could feel that two forces fight one with the others. One is small, and the other is bigger." replied Millie.
"Excellent.. As I thought, you have great talent in soul art. The small soul is your friend, and the bigger one is the phoenix. I want you to help your soul friend to overcome the bigger one. Otherwise, she will be eaten by the phoenix soul. This will be your test."
"Help? How?" asked Millie.
"Before you wake up, I sent a few dead souls that you killed into you. All this soul becomes your soul force and is fully integrated into your soul. I want you to take some part of it and give it to your friend.

"Think of it like a portion of food that could be divided into many parts. Then, take this part and empower your friend's soul. If you take too much, it will overwhelm your friend's soul, But if it is too little, your friend's soul will be taken over by the phoenix soul quickly."
"For the time being, I prevent both of the souls from clashing one with the others. But as soon as you transfer your power soul to your friend, I will not prevent them anymore. This is also a test for you."
"Don't worry, in case you almost fail. I will take over and save your friend. But, it means you are not as talented as I thought before. So, will you take this test?" said the soul keeper.
"I.. I will take this test. I will not become a burden to everyone again." said Millie resolutely.
"Excellent, now feel the power of the soul inside your body and transfer it to your friend." said the soul keeper.
Millie closed her eyes and could feel overflowing mysterious energy inside her body. Then, she takes some small part of it. A small gray ball appeared in front of her chest.
Looking at this, 'What a monstrous talent?!! She already managed to do this just after hearing my instruction. It took me dozen years to do what she did. My judgment truly is not wrong.' thought the soul keeper.
"Excellent, now to transfer the soul force to your friend, you need to imagine it like a calm river that keeps moving and steady." said the soul keeper.
Hearing the next instruction, Millie begins to send her small soul force to Mia like a calm river that keeps flowing. Mia's soul begins to increase at a fast rate.
The soul keeper is not preventing the phoenix's soul anymore and letting the two souls clash. At first, Millie feels Mia's soul getting overwhelmed, but her medical experience helps her calm down and keep sending the soul force calmly.
She even takes a small part of her soul again and is ready to send it to Mia. In the meantime, the soul keeper silently looks at Millie's work with awe.
During this time, a green phoenix came in their direction at a fast speed. Feeling the presence of her sister inside the unconscious girl, She immediately came towards it. Before she approaches the two girls, the soul keeper appears in front of the two girls.
"Leave!!" said the soul keeper shortly.
"What have you done to my sister?" said the Green Goose.
"Leave or die!!" repeated the soul keeper while releasing his soul force.
Feeling the bizarre power surrounding the man, the Green Goose's instinct tells her to get away from this man. But, looking at her sister in an unknown state, she becomes in a dilemma.
At this moment, the soul keeper raised his wrinkle hand and shot a black light towards the green goose [Finger of Death]. The black light travels at a fast speed, but Green Goose still could react to it. She immediately shot a green-colored fireblast towards it.
However, the fireblast couldn't even hold the [Finger of Death] power. Like her sister, she got shot, and her body eroded rapidly before turning to ash. From the ash, a green-colored fire burned, and the green goose resurrected.
Looking that there is no chance she could fight the man in front of her, she immediately gets away. Fortunately, the soul keeper didn't feel like following her and let her escape. He also still needs to observe Mia for the time being.
Soon, after a few hours of work, Mia's soul finally managed to eat the blue phoenix soul and become one. As the two souls merge, a wave of blue flare erupts from Mia's body towards the surroundings.
By this time, all the wounds in Mia's body healed. Her hand was also fully regenerated. She also managed to reach second grade. Looking at Mia's condition, Millie feels relieved despite being exhausted.
"Mia… Haa.. Haa.." as Millie approaches Mia.
Then, Mia opens her eyes and looks at Millie. "Ehh… Millie, what happened?" Mia immediately wakes up.
Looking that her best friend is completely fine, Millie feels relief and falls unconscious.
"Millie.. Millie…" called Mia, who is catching Millie's body worriedly.
"Don't worry, little girl. She is only exhausted." said the soul keeper.
At this moment, Mia realizes that there is a black-robed man nearby and begins to look at him cautiously.

You'd think it'd be the beginning of another classic Isekai adventure, but it soon becomes clear that things won't be so easy...Her nerdy-teenage-genius summoner has trapped her in his room, no one speaks English, and Mari's gut is NOT prepared for a whole new world of bacteria. Can Mari overcome the travel diarrhea, learn a whole new language and escape before she develops Stockholm syndrome? Most of all, can she learn to flourish in a world so different, yet so similar to her own? ****** Author note: This story is written in response to all the unrealistic, plot-armour Isekais out there.

Respectfully, Mhm
