I Just Want A Peaceful Life Chapter 182
Advertisement
After the loud bell sound, Angus arrives in a dark space with countless small dim lights all over the place. He feels like inside the water and without any gravity, yet he could breathe normally. To be exact, the place he currently resides is similar to outer space.
Looking that Jayna is gone from his side, Angus begins to use [Great Mana Echolocation] to understand his current situation. However, unlike usual, Angus didn't get feedback and result from his skill. It feels like this place is boundless and void, like outer space itself.
Despite his skill failing to understand his current situation, he unknowingly feels calm. He starts to feel unimaginably relaxation from his mind and body. All his lethargy and tiredness he had before is gone leaving behind the cozy and soothing feeling.
Being in this unknown state for an unknown time, he begins to forget all his worries, friends, his past life, dreams, even himself.
In this boundless place, Angus could see his memory start to fade one by one. His body also becomes transparent with each memory he has forgotten. It feels like the world is also beginning to forget him.
At this moment, Angus comes to a realization. He doesn't know why. But, he is familiar with this feeling. This is the feeling when he is dying in his past world and forgotten by everyone.
However, the feeling is more potent than before, and he unconsciously begins to forget everyone in his retaliation. He tries to make everyone disappear from his sight and memory leaving only an empty void and peacefulness.
Still, there is one thing that he could not forget, Jayna Heart. Unknowingly, he couldn't forget her despite the fact that he could forget his own family like nothing. Rather than forgetting his girlfriend, he begins to remember her more.
Their first encounter inside the academy testing ceremony. Teasing Jayna in the class. Annoy her by ignoring her challenge. Amazed by her appearance in the noble's gathering and royal palace.
The time they spend together all this time. The vow he takes under the starry night like this place. The life and death situation inside the Endless Battlefield dimension.
All of this memory keeps resurfacing and shows in the surrounding. He feels like seeing a movie yet also real.
Even though he likes to reminisce about his memory of Jayna, he also feels dissatisfied. He became longing for her but couldn't reach her at the same time. This feeling soon becomes endless torture for him.

After an unknown time, "Why can't I forget her? I could forget everything, even myself, but not her. I should just enjoy the peace and forget everything as everyone has forgotten about me." a voice comes from inside Angus.
"But why can't I forget her. What did she do to be always remembered by me who even forgot myself." the voice from inside Angus kept rambling.
Despite his struggle, he keeps remembering and longing for her. He starts to become crazy from this endless torture. Second become minute, minute becomes hours, day, months, soon become years. Yet, he still couldn't forget Jayna.
After another unknown amount of time which feels like an eternity, "Does it hurt?" a deep voice coming from space.
"Yes." replied Angus's inner voice.
"Which one is hurt the most, to be forgotten or couldn't forget something." said the voice.
"Couldn't forget something." said Angus's inner voice.
"Do you want to forget it?" asked the voice.
"Ye…. NO.. Never, I vow to always be by her side. I vow to keep her trust. I will never forget her even after I die." yelled Angus interrupt his inner voice.
"Even if it hurts and tortures you for eternity?" asked the voice again.
"Yes.. A-At least it's better than forgetting her." replied Angus in a gloomy tone like he knows that he will suffer for eternity from his answer.
"Good.. Please keep her by your side and remember her. Unlike what I did in the past." said the deep voice before strange energy coming towards Angus.
"As someone that is already forgotten by the world and times, I can't give you anything, But I could help to never forget about her."
"When you forget your path, you will remember her. When you forget yourself, you will remember her. When you become nothing like me, you will remember her. Some say this is a curse, but there is nothing more painful than forgetting someone precious to you."
"Now, Go, rise, embrace your path and live your life. Wreak havoc in this world, my heir." said the voice.
Suddenly, the dark space was destroyed into pieces like a mirror. At this moment, Angus is aware that he is lying on Jayna's lap. Jayna herself seems to be crying nonstop while calling his name.

"Jayna, why are you crying?" asked Angus as he hugged his girlfriend.
"Angus… You… Y-You are back. Huaaaa… I thought I lost you!!" said Jayna while hugging Angus back.
Suddenly, Another booming voice heard from every side, "T-This is impossible!!!"
Hearing this voice, Angus begins to realize their current situation. His memory begins to return like waking up from a long-time dream.
'What is that place? Is that a dream? No.. It's too real to be called a dream?' thought Angus while enjoying the warmth of Jayna as this is something he has been longing for a long time.
Looking around, Angus realizes that they are in a sort of enclosed circular chamber with various majestic stone sculptures around them.
Although it is a stone sculpture, it looks genuine, like it is alive. It is like a piece of art that no one could create. The statue is so beautiful yet alive and radiates an imposing aura. The previous booming voice also comes from these majestic sculptures.
If it is not because of his desire to stay with Jayna, Angus will already turn into a nerdy mode to analyze every piece of this art.
After getting his bearings, "Jayna, what exactly is going on?" Angus reluctantly releases Jayna from his hug and stares at her.
Then, Jayna tells him the moment after they put all the items they gather on the altar. After the altar shone a bright light, A booming voice was heard from all sides.
"Stop!!" yelled the booming voice.
Before they could realize it, both Jayna and Angus arrive at this chamber. Even Draven, who hides in Angus's shadow, is also forced to come out. The next moment, Jayna feels Angus's presence start to fade slowly.
Like to respond with his master, Draven also begins to curl up in pain and get weaker as time goes by. Seeing this, Jayna begins to grab the unconscious Angus, trying to wake him.
However, no matter what she did, Angus couldn't wake up. Even his body begins to fade away slowly. She slowly starts to forget Angus. However, at one moment, fire mana flared up from her body.
She heard a faint voice that was similar to the fire phoenix, "Don't give up!! Keep remembering him!!"
After that, Jayna keeps calling Angus's name without stopping and trying to keep remembering their memory together.
While all this happened, the statue in the chamber could only stay silent, looking at Angus's fading body.
They have already seen too many times about this scene happening in the past. None of them ever survive and are always completely gone in the end, being forgotten by everyone. However, somehow Angus managed to be back and alive, hugging Jayna.
Hearing Jayna's explanation about the current situation, "So, you are saying I am fading away?" asked Angus, who kept caressing Jayna.
"Uhum.. Yeah.. It feels like I am going to forget you at any time. But, somehow, there is something that prevents that from happening. No, I don't want to forget you." replied Jayna while embracing Angus.
Looking at Jayna's vulnerable state, "It's okay. I am not going anywhere." said Angus trying to reassure Jayna.
After a while, "Ehem.. I am sorry to interrupt you. However, there is something we want to ask you." said one of the stone statues.
"No problem. I also want to know about our current situation." replied Angus while keeping Jayna on his side.
Despite his experience before being like a dream, his longing feeling towards Jayna is still real. If it is not because of his impeccable self-control, he may already eat Jayna.
Still, he restrained his inner desire since he could feel the presence inside each of these stone sculptures. His feelings towards Jayna that start from interest and love turn into obsession and make him not want to share her with the others no matter the situation.
"Yes, you may be confused about your current situation, young one. So, let me explain your current situation." said one of the statues.
According to the statue's explanation, this ancestral ruin is actually a temple to worship kings. In ancient times, the king was not only a title that could be easily obtained. When someone becomes king, it means the world itself recognizes them as the king.
This is different from the current king, which could easily be obtained from a simple coronation. All these statues inside this chamber are actually the ancient kings in the past that are recognized by the world.
