I Just want a Peaceful life

Chapter 187: Untouchable

*Bum* *Bum* *Bum* Each of the Firebolts managed to hit all the Rondak's weak spots. Getting hit by the enhanced Firebolt, Rondak couldn't help but be pushed back a few meters away.

Despite being pushed back, Rondak decides to endure the pain of the Firebolts rather than dodging the incoming attack. Suddenly a brown aura covered his body, and Rondak did a sudden front flip [Rollout].

Rondak doing a fast rotation while moving forwards and covered with earth element mana. The Firebolts couldn't manage to keep Rondak in his place. A moment later, he was already in front of Angus, ready to clash with him.

However, Angus easily sidestepped the incoming attack from the Rondak and missed by a hair's breadth. Rondak keeps rolling forwards like a round boulder before making a turnaround and coming at Angus again.

Because of his previous momentum, Rondak moved faster than before. Still, Angus managed to dodge the incoming attack flawlessly. At this time, Angus also didn't stay idle either. He shoots a few Fireball spells towards rolling Rondak. *Bam* *Bam* *Bam*

Although the [Fireball] couldn't penetrate and hurt Rondak, it managed to reduce his momentum and speed. Noticing this, Rondak decided to change his strategy. [Rollout] may be a strong skill, but it needs time to build momentum and speed.

With being attacked by intense Fireballs, his momentum and speed will slowly decrease and stagnate. In the end, his body will be hurt by the Fireball as he loses all his speed and momentum.

Another Fireball is coming towards Rondak. Rather than endure the attack like before, he throws his mace towards the incoming Fireball. *Bam* The Fireball managed to explode in the air and give him a brief breather from Angus's relentless attack.

Using this opportunity, Rondak slams his hand towards the stone platform. Angus also didn't stay idle either. He shot another follow-up Fireball calmly towards Rondak.

Although his Fireball casting is not as fast as Firebolt, it is still fast enough to deter any warrior combatant.

Before the Fireball reaches Rondak, he pulls his hand from the stone platform and makes some of the stone platform tilting towards Angus's direction [Earth Wave]. *Bam*

The Fireball hit the stone platform and destroyed some part of it. [Earth Wave] managed to reach Angus and offset his balance. Angus immediately uses strange footwork and gets out from the Earth Wave's area [Rodeo Maneuver].

Using the time Angus got distracted by his Earth Wave, Rondak charged towards Angus and launched a strong mana-covered punch [Stone Bash].

Angus looked at the incoming attack calmly and tilted his head, dodging the strong punch by a hairbreadth. At this moment, he pointed his finger towards Rondak's chin from below [Firebolt]. *Bum*

Another Firebolt shot at point-blank range makes Rondak feel like getting a strong uppercut. Not wasting this opening, Angus shot another Firebolt towards Rondak's throat. *Bum*

Rondak managed to cover his throat with mana at the last second but still felt like being hit by a strong jab in his throat. He feels like being choked and staggered behind while covering his hurt throat. *Cough* *Cough*

Then, Angus shot more Firebolt to another vital area such as Rondak's eyes, groin, throat, and various critical acupuncture spots. *Bum* *Bum* *Bum* All the firebolts managed to hit Rondak's strong body.

Fortunately, Rondak's body is quite strong as he is an earth elemental warrior. Otherwise, his body will be riddled with holes already. Still, his body is wounded in various locations and forcing him to kneel on the ground.

Looking at this, "Surrender??" asked Angus coldly while pointing his finger at Rondak's head.

Using his last bit of strength to withstand the pain, Rondak nodded his head in a hurry to save his life. He knows that if he does not take this opportunity, he will lose his life towards the fearsome youngster in front of him.

Getting Rondak's nod, Angus pulled back his hand and went towards the outside arena. Seeing the battle end anticlimactically without bloodshed, some of the audience is booing. But, some also cheered at the exciting high-speed battle between Angus and Rondak.

Leaving the arena, Angus takes his compensation from Rondak. The rules said that a surrendered opponent needs to compensate the winner.

Usually, the compensation is something agreed upon before the fight. Otherwise, it will be a tremendous amount of mana core by default.

As a veteran, Rondak already prepares a considerable amount of mana core as compensation in case he loses. Although the compensation is very harsh, it is better than losing his life or all his possessions.

Angus didn't truly care about the compensation since he didn't lack money or mana core. Still, there is nothing wrong with having more money.

After taking the compensation, he went back to the audience area. He found uncle Jade and some other Sur villagers already occupied a spot in the audience.

Approaching the Sur village's spot, "Ahh.. Angus, congratulations for your win. That's a spectacular fight." said Isvel.

"Yeah, I never knew that a basic firebolt spell could be used in a close combat battle like that. It really opened my mind to use low-level spells like that." added Gilford.

"Well, I'm just trying to conserve my strength while beating my opponent." replied Angus in a humble tone.

"Yeah, you really conserve a lot. You only use two spells to beat a third-grade veteran." said Isvel.

Hearing this, Angus could only chuckle, "Anyway, how is the other?" asked Angus.

"Some managed to lose, and some managed to win. Fortunately, there is no casualty yet." said the clan head Jade.

"Jane and Kurvan decide to look out for the participant. If they feel our side is losing, they will interrupt the battle and surrender on behalf of the youngster." added Jade, who kept looking out at the arena.

"After the incident in the inner area, we cannot lose any more youngsters. Although the minimum compensation is harsh, it is still better than losing our precious youngster. This will also serve them as an experience at the same time." explained Jade.

Hearing this, Angus also looks at the arena. Currently, he found that Jayna managed to beat her opponent easily with the help of [Hellfire]. Hellfire ancient power is truly compatible with Jayna.

Since she has high resistance towards fire from the Fire Phoenix's ability, she could raise her fire temperature as high as she could. If not because her [Hellfire] proficiency is still low, she may raise her fire like a hot blazing sun.

The Hellfire ancient power is a supernatural power that governs and controls every aspect of fire. One of its basics is the temperature. According to the King of Hellfire, a.k.a Firelord, Hellfire could become a power to destroy anything at a later stage.

In the past, there were already some Ancient Kings that fell into the hands of this Ancient Power. Based on the Firelord, this ancient power could also be called the ultimate weapon.

However, without proper control, this power could harm the user before it could unleash its might.

Unlike Jayna, Angus didn't have high fire resistance. Although with the blessing of Firelord, he has a better fire resistance than before, he still couldn't withstand high-temperature fire like Jayna.

To use a high-temperature fire like Jayna, one needs to withstand its temperature first before unleashing it. Otherwise, the fire will damage or burn the user first.

Although Angus couldn't raise its temperature to a high degree, Angus could quickly gather and use fire mana than before. This is also one of the reasons behind his rapid casting of Firebolt and Fireball.

While looking at the arena, no one dared to challenge him after his victory over the veteran Rondak without getting wounded. No sane person would dare to fight someone like untouchable Angus on the first day of the tournament.

Most of them will try to wait until Angus exhausted himself or was wounded during one of the fights before challenging him.

As for Angus, he didn't truly care about that. He plans to wait for the other participant to collect more points before defeating them to reap all their points.

At this moment, Angus found Neil fighting in one of the arenas. Neil fights one of the veterans in the arena who is proficient at using spears. Neil himself wields a unique weapon called chakram.

Despite his shitty personality, he is pretty good at handling this difficult weapon and has excellent combat capability along with a little bit of fire mastery.

Looking at Neil's fight for a while, Angus shook his head to show his disappointment. Although he is called the number one genius in Sur village, he still lacks behind in Angus's standard.

'So many useless movements. Why the hell did he do that? He could conserve more mana without doing that movement. Hmph… Even Jayna before my training is better than him. I don't know why he is called a genius by everyone.' thought Angus inwardly.

Angus didn't know that Jayna is actually a rare talent that only appears once from a hundred million people.

Angus may realize the talent in Jayna, but since he is also surrounded by many old strong people in this world, he feels that it is normal to have a strong combat sense like Jayna, who is still at a younger age.
