I Just want a Peaceful life

Chapter 230: Eskor

"A group of Ice creatures?" asked Jade through a communication device.

"Yeah, judging by their behavior, they should be a group of monsters." said Angus.

Suddenly, a few ice monsters open their mouths, and a white ball containing dark miasma gathers in front of them. Jade and all the high-grade combatants immediately sense this movement.

"Shit!! Everyone take cover!!" said Jade as he got out from the Alkin and faced the ice monster.

In a matter of seconds, his body turns into blazing red and releases huge fire mana nearby, melting the surrounding snow. A moment later, the ice monsters shoot their accumulated energy towards the Alkin [Frost Blast].

On the other hand, Jade gathers powerful fire mana in his hand and slams it on the ground [Tri Flare]. Three strong fire waves appeared from Jade's hand and came towards the incoming Frost Blast. *BOOMM*

Both of the attacks clash with each other and create a devastating shockwave clearing the surrounding area. The shockwave and tremor happen for a while before receding, leaving a desolate ground in the surrounding area.

Even the raging hailstorm stopped for a while before continuing to rain down on the entire area. After the tremor stops, all the Sur village combatants get out from the Alkin to help their leader.

They found Jade half-naked without upper clothes and a massive plot of land in front of them scarred by the previous clash. They could see a group of ice monsters in many different forms made of ice in the far distance.

"Impossible!! T-They are Eskor." said Elder Moi.

"You mean that Eskor?!!" said Elder Fosa.

"Yeah, that should be. A monster that was created from the miasma in the coldest place. But, they shouldn't be here." replied Elder Fosa.

Hearing this, everyone becomes solemn. After countless research, experts managed to find how monsters are born. The first one is by getting corrupted with miasma. This also includes the one that is born with miasma.

The second one is formed by the miasma and nature itself like Eskor. There is a massive difference between the two monsters. According to statistics, a monster born by nature and miasma is more powerful than getting corrupted by miasma.

Fortunately, monsters like this are very rare since the chance of them being created is very low. The chance is even lower than reaching a seventh-grade realm. Looking at the group of Eskor approaching them slowly, the Sur village begins to be solemn.

"Everyone, don't panic and look carefully." said Jade.

The other combatants begin to look at the Eskor carefully like Jade's command.

"Hmm.. I am not sure, but I feel only three of them give off a more chilling aura while the rest didn't." said Angus.

"Angus is right. Although Eskor should be a monster formed by nature, not all Eskor in this group are formed by nature. They should somehow manage to reproduce like the other monsters." explained Jade.

"The three Eskor with a chilling aura will be handled by me, the elders, and other fifth grade combatants while others subdue the rest. After finishing the rest immediately help the other fight the three Eskor and make sure to pay attention to your safety." command Jade.

"Charge!! Show them the power of Sur village!!" Yelled Jade as he charged towards the strongest Eskor.

"WOOW" replied all the others following Jade's lead.

Angus and his group also begin to charge, ready to clash with the ordinary Eskor. Although the number of Eskor is lower than them, their strength cannot be underestimated. The lowest grade of Eskor in the group is grade three.

It means everyone needs to team up to defeat an Eskor safely. Looking at the approaching group of people in front of them, The Eskor begins to gather chilling energy to launch another [Frost Blast].

However, The Sur group didn't let them. Some of the combatants begin to use their movement skills and intercept their attack. The fastest one is Isvel, who managed to arrive first and hit a few Eskor simultaneously.

"Haha… Come one, ice freak. Is that all you got?" taunted Isvel while hitting all the nearby Eskor using his dagger.

The Eskor begins to try to hit Isvel. However, their speed is like a turtle compared to Isvel, who keeps moving around. Soon, the other Sur group combatants arrive and begin to fight against all the Eskor.

After fighting for a while, they find the bizarre feature of Eskor. They could regenerate and manipulate their ice body to many different forms to attack. Furthermore, their ice body is stronger and sturdier than the hardest steel.

Almost all their attacks are useless against Eskor. In the meantime, the Angus group also handles one of the big Eskor that munching a frozen corpse.

Looking at the frozen corpse in Eskor's hand, Angus notices some of them wearing the same clothes as the slave trader they passed a few hours ago.

'It seems they just passed and fought against the slave trader.' thought Angus while supporting Jayna with his spell.

On the other hand, Jayna, Anna, and Ilgor begin to attack the giant Ice monster in the front. Jayna managed to cut Eskor's hand easily using her burning sword. However, the Eskor could easily regenerate its frozen hand like new.

'Hmm… This is troublesome. They could easily regenerate and heal themselves. At this rate, it will take a long battle to kill them.' thought Angus as he began to find the weakness of Eskor.

At the same time, Gilford didn't stay still and immediately released Alfredo to fight against the biggest Eskor, who was a few dozen meters high. *BAM* *BAM* The two giants clash and exchange blows, releasing a tremor towards the surrounding area.

Suddenly, Alfredo changed his hand into a sword. Gilford also didn't fall behind and cast a spell on Alfredo's sword [2nd Circle - Fire Armament]. Alfredo's entire sword hand is enveloped by fire and stabs directly at the giant Eskor.

By some coincidence, Alfredo managed to hit Eskor's core and directly kill it. Seeing this, Gilford immediately tells the others.

"Hit their core!! They have a core in their body!!" Yelled Gilford.

Hearing this, some high-grade combatants begin to follow Gilford's example and target the Eskor's core rather than target their body. After a while, a few Eskor start to get defeated, especially under the might of Alfredo.

Seeing many of their brethren dying, the strongest Eskor becomes angry and roars. *ROOOARR* Suddenly, the hailstorm becomes heavier, and the surrounding temperature drops at a fast rate [Blizzard].

All the combatants begin to envelop themselves with fire mana to fend off the sudden drop-off temperature. But, they still feel cold and become rigid from the weather. This also affects their movement and their combat prowess.

On the other hand, the Eskor's ice body is becoming thicker and harder than before. Now,t all the combatant attacks couldn't even penetrate its defense. However, there is one group that begins to slaughter Eskor without stopping. This group is Angus's group.

By utilizing Jayna's hot-burning sword and [Hellfire], she could easily penetrate Eskor's ice defense and destroy their core. Moreover, [Blizzard] also makes the ordinary Eskor movement slower and rigid. This makes all the ordinary Eskor an idle target for Jayna.

Seeing that more Eskor is getting killed under Jayna's hand, one of the Eskor leaders begins to ignore its opponent and runs towards Jayna. Just as the Eskor wanted to crush Jayna with its fist, Jayna already retreated using [Fiery Burst].

However, unlike the other ordinary Eskor, it could follow the Jayna movement. Angus appeared in front of the incoming Eskor's fist at the last second using [Beast Walk].

[Domain - Yin Yang Stance]

As Angus uses his domain, a yin yang diagram appears on the ground while the time slows down. Then, Angus's palm touched Eskor's fist.

As time begins to move again, unimaginable things happen. The three-meter big Eskor seems like losing its balance and getting thrown to the side heavily.

"Everyone, attack now!!" shouted Angus, waking up the others from their stupor.

Hearing Angus yell, the nearby combatant begin to launch their most potent attack toward the down Eskor. However, their attack still couldn't penetrate the Eskor's hard ice defense.

"Tch.. You leave me no choice. I really don't want to use this skill." said Angus.

Angus approaches the down Eskor using Beast Walk and touches the Eskor's body using both hands [Raging Shock]. The entire Eskor body began to vibrate, and a lot of big cracks appeared on its ice body, starting from Angus's hand.

Using this opportunity, Elder Zeth launches his strongest attack [Spear Art - Scorched Point]. The attack managed to penetrate the cracking Eskor's ice defense and destroy its core. *ROOAARR* Growl the Eskor as it becomes pieces of big ice cubes.

Hearing the growl of defeated Eskor, the other two Eskor leaders become more enraged. One of them is in the Fifth grade, while the other one is in the fourth grade. Both of them reach a stalemate fighting their opponent.

At the same time, Angus touched his head and his stomach, holding on to not vomiting. This is the side effect of [Raging Shock]. The raging shock shakes not only the enemy's body but also his body.

If it is only his body, he still could endure it with his absurd endurance. But the problem is the shaking in his head. After using the Raging Shock, he will feel like having bad vertigo.
