I Just Want A Peaceful Life Chapter 205
Advertisement
After chatting a little bit with Jayna about her training, Angus accompanies her towards her tent to rest.
He also told Ilgor to stand by near Jayna to protect her secretly. Even though Jayna may notice and hate this, he still couldn't bear Jayna getting hurt in case he is not around.
Then, Angus decides to go towards his uncle Jade. Since he now has the invisibility cloak, he has more options for the incoming battle against the other villages.
Arriving at the clan head tent, "What do you mean I will lead the others to escape?!! I could also fight!!" shouted Neil.
"Don't be stubborn and just listen this time!!" yelled Jade.
'It seems I am arriving not at the right time.' thought Angus inwardly while looking at the father and son quarrel.
Before Angus could go out, the people in the tent already noticed his arrival, which made Angus harder to leave without being rude.
"How about him? Will he also participate?!! An Outsider!!" said Neil while pointing at Agnus.
'Why suddenly he involved me??' thought Angus.
"Neil!! How many times have I said Angus is not an outsider. He is your cousin!! And he is volunteering to help us." said Jade.
"So, that's it. You choose this outsider over your own son!!" yelled Neil.
"This has nothing to do with that! Tch.. Guard, Bring Neil out. Make sure he calms his head." command Jade towards the nearby guard.
As the guard tried to take Neil out, "I could get out by myself." struggle Neil.
As he passed Angus, "Don't you think this is your win!!" said Neil coldly towards Angus.
Angus, who heard this, could only raise his eyebrows, 'Why did he hold a grudge against me so much? As far as I know, I never interact with him too much.' thought Angus.
Angus sense not only could feel someone's presence. He also could feel other's intent though there is a limitation to this ability. Angus is confident that Neil has ill intent towards him.
This ill intent is similar to his little brother in the past before he was dying. A foul intent that comes from deep jealousy and hatred. Usually, even if Angus notices this, he will not do anything since Neil could not do anything to him.
However, he is now not alone anymore. There is Jayna beside him. Angus silently vows that if Neil decides to involve Jayna in whatever he plans, he will make him taste a fate worse than death.

Although Angus thinks something horrible to Neil, his outer expression is still calm without any turbulence. Then, he put this thought at the back of his mind before looking at his uncle, who is contemplating something.
"Uncle, should I come back later?" asked Angus.
Hearing Angus answer, Jade takes a deep breath for a moment, "No need. So, What is it? We are still not getting camouflage items yet." said Jade.
"About that, I actually managed to get two artifacts as the arena reward, and one of them has the ability to blend with the surroundings." said Angus.
"T-Two artifact??" replied Jade.
"Yeah, since one of them could make me blend with the surroundings, we could move forward with our plan." said Angus
"Are you still serious about that?" asked Jade.
"Yeah, how about this? Why don't you try to sense me while I am in camouflage? If you could still found me, I will decide to abort this plan." said Angus.
After thinking for a while, "Alright, let's try it. Wait for a second. Guard, call Abet here. Abet is the best person in the Sur Village in terms of sensing ability." said Jade.
Soon, Abet comes into the tent and gets some explanation about Angus's plan.
"Alright, let's do it. I am not sure about the other villages' sensing ability. But, I am quite confident in my own ability. So, don't be too sad if it does not succeed." said Abet.
Then, Angus begins to cover his body with his dark-colored cloak and erase his presence. Suddenly, Abet and Jade couldn't perceive Angus at all. They feel like Angus has already left and gone from their room.
Even after a few minutes of trying to sense Angus, they still didn't manage to find Angus.
"Alright, I give up. I can't even feel you at all." said Abet.
"Wait for a second, Abet." said Jade as he released his mana towards the surroundings.
"This.. Damn, you even managed to approach me near my side without my knowledge." said Jade.
Angus takes out his cover and reveals his presence beside Jade. This also surprises Abet since if Angus wants, he could launch a sneak attack on Jade.
"Hmm… As I thought, active mana search still manages to find me." said Angus.
"Yeah, however, normally everyone will never release active mana. So, as long as you don't do something suspicious, they will not find you. Besides, only high-grade combatants like me that could use this technique to search people properly." replied Jade.

"True. So, will we proceed with the plan?" asked Angus.
"*Sigh* Well, I am really against it since you will be alone in there. But, looking you have this excellent stealth ability, I guess I could let you go. Still, I will suggest you go tomorrow when you are in perfect condition." said Jade.
"Yes, then I will excuse myself first. Tomorrow, I will go towards their camp. I am too tired for now." said Angus as he went out from Jade's tent towards his own tent.
Arriving at his own tent, he finds Jayna already asleep. She wakes up as Angus enters the tent.
"Huam… Angus, so did you get the permission?" asked Jayna.
"Yeah, I will be going tomorrow." said Angus.
"I see.. Emm… I know you said I couldn't follow you. But, please be careful. You are…" said Jayna.
"Hushh.. Just sleep for now." said Angus while cuddling Jayna.
Then, both of them begin to rest under each other's embrace. Angus is also quite tired since today he had his final match and unsealed the artifacts. He consumed ¾ of his current mana to unseal them. Moreover, he also trained a little bit with Jayna.
If it is not because of his high mana regeneration, he may already have entered a mana deficiency state a long time ago.
The following day, Angus woke up refreshed. All the fatigue he got yesterday was already gone. While laying on his bed and caressing Jayna, Angus decides to look at his status first.
Host: Angus Victory
Age: 14 Years Old
MP: 386/386
Heritage chi: ???
Strength: 39
Dexterity: 39
Intelligence: 41
Vitality: 43
Soul Point: 293
During the last few weeks, his status didn't change much since he didn't have time to gather soul points from the manual battle. All the points he got mostly from the automatic battle.
The only one that still slowly increases is Angus's mana. Even though he didn't focus on refining more mana, it seems it slowly grew passively as he kept using mana during the battle.
After checking his mana is fully regenerated, he decides to wake up. As he moves around, Jayna also wakes up.
"Good morning, princess." said Angus.
"*Yawn* Morning, Angus." replied Jayna while wiping her eyes.
"So, are you going to go now?" asked Jayna.
"Yeah, the earlier I go there, the more time we have to prepare." replied Angus.
"Alright, be careful," said Jayna.
"I will. Don't worry, I will come back soon." said Angus as he gave Jayna a peck on her lips.
Then, Angus began to dress up and covered his body with the artifact cloak. He decides to become invisible from the start in case there are already few spies inside the camp.
Walking out of the Sur village camp without everyone noticing, Angus soon arrives at the ancestral ruin entrance. After sneaking outside and passing the gate, he found himself at the outskirts of the Surya desert.
Then, Angus continued his journey under the scorched burning desert to the other villages' camp that Abet told before. After running for a while, he finally found a strange mana barrier enveloping a large area from his [Great Mana Echolocation].
'Surely, this is the work of the enchanter. However, it is done poorly. Otherwise, I will not find their hidden camp easily. Well, it is also great since I could change their rune trap to our advantage.' thought Angus inwardly.
Angus plans to sneak at the other village's base camp and modify the runes around the area. So, when the battle starts, the rune trap will not work properly and give the Angus group more advantage.
In due time, Angus manages to locate all the hidden rune traps. He needed to decipher their rune language first before he could change it. While trying to decipher the rune trap, his ancient power [Analyze] worked at full capacity helping him.
After a few hours of reading the rune language from a few rune traps that were scattered nearby, Angus finally managed to decipher the rune language completely.
'Fiuhh… This is easier from what I previously thought. It seems all of them are made in a hurry and leave a lot of openings. Well, not that I will complain about it.' thought Angus while he began to modify the rune trap.
Using the ancient power [Analyze] and his knowledge as an enchanter, Angus modified the rune trap quickly without notifying the other enchanter.
