I Just want a Peaceful life

Chapter 18 - Unexpected Event



"This is.. Damn, I need to get out of here fast." said Angus.

Few minutes before the explosion, Jayna's group wandered while searching for the opponent.

​​

"Damn it, where is that Angus? He is supposed to be beside us as the weakest. Now, we need to search for him too." Grumbled Princess Jayna.

Before long, she feels a presence in front of her. "Who's there?" said Princess Jayna.

"It's me, Ian. Hahaha.. This is really great. I don't need to search for you now, Brute Princess." Mocking Ian

"What did you say, commoner?" As Jayna is ready to battle.

During their three months stay in the royal academy, Jayna and Ian often fight with each other. Most of their fights end up in a tie before they exhaust themselves. 

However, Jayna is better at her academic score than Ian and makes her the first ranker among the 1st year students.

Because of this, Ian always sought to fight and tried to win against Jayna, while Jayna herself felt the need to maintain the first ranking as the royalties.

Soon, They begin their fight. Jayna shots small flame balls towards Ian rapidly [1st circle – Flame Shot]. But, Ian already expected it and dodge them easily while casting his own spell [1st circle – Aqua Ball].

Looking at the fast-approaching Aqua Ball, Jayna engulfs her fist with fire mana and punches the approaching water ball [Fire punch]. The collation between them creates a mist of water steam that Ian uses to his advantage by launching a close combat attack.

Then, both of them were entangled in their fight. While they fight furiously, Jayna's and Ian's group also start their own battle. Jayna's group may have fewer people than Ian's, but they are stronger since the princess herself is often training them.

A few minutes later, a roar was heard from the nearby bush. Two brown wolves approach the group after hearing the commotion. The brown wolf releases their bloodlust and makes all the students paralyzed on the spot beside Jayna and Ian.

Looking at this, Ian and Jayna stop fighting each other and ready themselves to battle the approaching brown wolf. But, they underestimate the brown wolf's speed and strength. Before they could react, Ian and Jayna were already knocked down by the brown wolf's claw.

Fortunately, the barrier erects in time to protect both of them. Using this momentum, one brown wolf pinned Jayna inside the barrier and kept attacking the barrier.

While the other brown wolf fight pursues Ian and is knocked back far away. At this moment, Jayna's mind is utterly in chaos. Although the barrier is active and protects her, she still felt her life almost gone at the last second.

Combined with the bloodlust and pressure released by the brown wolf, she begins to paralyze on the spot while her mind goes into chaos.

"I am going to die.. I am going to die.. I am going to die..

I am going to die.. I am going to die.. I am going to die..

I am going to die.. I am going to die.. I am going to die.. ARRRGGGHH" screamed Jayna.

At this moment, her hidden mana becomes chaotic and erupts brightly into an explosion. Her expression turned into a crazed one while screaming. The scream is enhanced with mana and pushes the brown wolf back. Then, it is quickly trying to escape from Jayna's aura.

Before it could get away, Jayna already pinned the brown wolf on the ground using her hand. "DIE DIE DIE!! YOU MAGGOT!!" As she brutally shreds the brown wolf into pieces.

After finishing off the brown wolf, she is going after the nearby paralyzed student as she couldn't differentiate between ally and foe."DIE!!"

But, before she could approach the other student. A person in black clothes appeared from her shadow and restrained her [2nd circle spell – shadow bind].

"Princess… Calm down. No one will kill you." The black-clothed man tries to calm Jayna.

Still, the [Shadow Bind] could only hold her for a moment before Jayna mana exploded once again. At this moment, behind her is a figure an elderly with a majestic presence before going inside Jayna [Soul Possession].

Then, Jayna attacks her shadow guard before he could react [Barrage Fire Punch]. The power of the punch is vastly different from the previous and launched the shadow guard dozens of meters away.

At this moment [2nd Circle – Entroot] [2nd Circle – Binding Chain]. The teacher already appears one with others and restrains her.

Then, Jayna begins to mutter in a sort of ancient language [WEAK.. WEAK.. All OF YOU WEAK. YOU CAN'T RESTRAINT ME]

Under the aura of Jayna, all spells are degrading before they turn into nothingness. All the teacher feels dread at this moment, they feel like in front of the presence of a legendary 7th-grade combatant.

In the presence of Jayna, all the teachers cannot move a single bit. Before Jayna could attack one of them, she heard chanting from far away. 

"....Will of wind and light encased by storm. [4th Circle – Elemental Blast]" the headmaster Anthony comes out and casts his spell toward Jayna.

A surge amount of lightning, wind, water, and fire elemental appears from the magic diagram. They combine together into a vortex in front of Anthony and push Jayna back towards deep in the forest.

Meanwhile, inside the deep forest, Angus hurrying himself to go to the base. Suddenly, his instinct flared up and immediately moved away from his spot [Rodeo Maneuver].

Using his strange footwork technique, he dodges the incoming Jayna that landed on his previous spot, creating a crater on the ground. At this moment, Angus could see Jayna slowly crawl from the crater with tattered clothes.

[How dare you maggot hit me?!!] She releases another powerful surge of mana that makes her body veins revealed like it is going to rupture anytime.

Looking at this, Angus knows that the situation is going from bad to worse. 'Just what the hell did I do that I deserve this. Haa.. Better wrap this up.' thought Angus releases his own killing intent to counter Jayna's madness aura.

Feeling the dread sensation from Angus's killing intent, Jayna began to freeze. [W-who are you?]

Angus only looked seriously at Jayna before saying, "Tch… Weakling"

Hearing Angus's response, "W-WHAT DID YO…" She once replied without an outburst.

At this moment, Angus approaches her while mimicking a beast movement [Beast Walk]. Along the way, he throws his hidden daggers toward her head.

Jayna managed to react to the sudden attack by pummeling the dagger using her fire punch. As Jayna got distracted from his dagger, Angus approached her back and slapped her back neck heavily. 

Less than a second later, Jayna feels like being electrocuted and howls loudly, "ARRRGGHH" before slumping to the ground unconscious.

Looking at the petite body in tattered clothes, Angus gave his coat towards her and removed his melted hidden dagger away before he waited patiently for the teachers.
