I Just want a Peaceful life

Chapter 292: Mission

After hearing Paul's sentence, everyone once again ignored him and kept walking to the Spring Dorm.

Getting ignored once again by everyone, "Y-You.. How dare you ignore me?!!" said Paul while approaching everyone.

Before he could approach them, Paul suddenly hit an invisible barrier right on the outskirts of the Dorm's perimeter. *Bum* At the same time, Angus and the others enter the dorm and completely ignore the shouting Paul.

After entering the dorm, "Hey, do you think it is alright to ignore him completely?" asked Axel.

"Don't worry about him. He is nothing." said Mia.

"Yeah, he is just like everyone that wants to approach and use us." said Ian.

After returning from the Endless Battlefield dimension, many nobles and influential people approach them. Therefore, they decide to stay in the royal academy to avoid these people until they are ready to face them and learn more about the world.

However, many students like Paul decide to annoy them every day, trying to 'befriend' them under someone else's order. In the end, Angus decides to place a special barrier to block the other people coming to the spring dorm perimeter.

Unless they are residents of the Spring Dorm or the Dorm's caretaker, no one could enter the barrier. Actually, this is a simple barrier that could be broken by force. However, it is already enough to deter ordinary first-grade combatants like the royal academy student.

"But, Paul is a high noble. Unlike everyone that approached us so far." replied Axel.

"Hmm… That's true." said Mia.

"And? What's the problem if he is a high noble?" asked Angus, who noticed everyone's worry.

"Well, he has got quite an influence." said Axel.

"Huft.. As I said before, you don't need to worry about this stuff. Unless they want to mess with a seventh-grade combatant over a petty youngster quarrel, you should ignore this kind of person. Just think of them like thin air." said Angus.

"Angus is right. Rather than worry about them, it is better to use this time to improve yourself. We only have half a year before we take the graduation mission test." said Jayna.

"Yeah, I hear the mission test usually takes a lot of time. Some even require us to travel far away." said Ian.

Before graduating from the royal academy, the student usually needs to complete a mission. Most of these missions are issued by the kingdom and other influential people. The mission test serves as the final lesson for students to blend in with society.

Students will learn a lot during the mission about the world and how to survive. The mission also has different kinds of difficulty. The mission difficulty is divided like the adventurer guild's mission.

They are divided into a level, with level 1 being the lowest and level 5 being the highest. The level also serves as the minimum required grade to complete the mission. Most of the students usually take level 1 missions, while some top-ranking students choose level 2.

Level 3 and above is usually reserved for the teacher and other experts that stay in the royal academy. There is even level six and seven in the adventurer guild, which generally could only be done by sixth-grade combatant above.

The more difficult the mission, the better the result for their report. Moreover, to prevent the top-ranking student from exploiting the low-level mission, the academy gives a certain quota for the top-ranking student.

For example, the first ranking student needs to finish ten or more level one missions to complete the test or finish one level two missions to complete the test. The mission quota usually is based on the student's strength and capability.

As the special class, everyone knows that they need to finish many missions before they can pass the graduation test. Therefore, everyone will be quite busy and have less time to prepare and improve themself.

Fortunately, there is still half a year before everyone takes the mission test. They still have some time to improve and prepare themself. After that, everyone immediately goes towards their own room to rest.

Besides Angus and Jayna, everyone is quite tired after sparring with the teacher. They didn't worry too much about the score as they knew they would be passed no matter the result.

As for the ranking, they also didn't bother too much since they know a monstrous Angus and Jayna will stay on the top. What's essential for them is to prepare themself before graduating and blend with society.

They already experience how cruel the world is in the Endless Battlefield dimension. They need at least a certain amount of strength to survive in society.

The next day is the start of the term break. Still, not all of them decide to leave the academy to keep improving themself. Ian, Axel, and Millie decide to stay at the academy. They find a lot of stuff in the academy that could help them improve themself.

Ian decides to spend some of his points to get tutored by the teacher. In comparison, Axel and Millie find many books that could improve their respective capabilities.

Besides them, everyone goes back to their respective homes in the capital city. Before separating, Anna is tasked by Angus to accompany Jayna and cripple anyone that dares to approach her.

The little troublemaker immediately receives this task happily, leading everyone to pray for anyone who tries to approach Jayna. Jayna herself couldn't help but sigh at Angus's possessive nature, but she is also happy inside that her boyfriend cares about her.

As for Angus, he also went back to his manor in the capital city. By coincidence, the manor is quite empty this time since everyone is quite busy with their work. Vergil couldn't take another leave from the special explosion squat that had recently formed.

Jason and his mother are pretty busy taking care and managing their territory. Not to mention his father, duke Jacob, who is required to go around the kingdom for various things. His aunt Hersha is also quite busy managing some stuff of the Widespread family.

The Widespread family actually has the major business as exporter and merchant on the international scale. Their network is quite vast and branches around the world. Unfortunately, they only deal with big players and trade goods of a certain quality.

Therefore, Angus couldn't use this connection to trade his low-grade monster part and needed to use the other local prominent merchant like the Golden Trader merchant guild.

Despite this, the manor house is quite crowded with the guard and staff to take care of the manor. Arriving at the manor, Angus immediately goes towards the basement training area. Currently, the basement area is quite empty.

His elephant grass processing machine had already moved to another secured place. Though it is empty, his alchemical and smithing tools are still in the corner. Angus intends to continue his Firecast training in this basement.

Before continuing the training, he read an old notebook from his father. Two months ago, Angus decided to ask his father about the Firecast skill. At that time, he finds that his father is actually partially successful in mastering Firecast skills.

Still, his father did his own research and thought about this skill. The old notebook Angus brings contains all his father's research and thoughts about Firecast skills through the years. For Angus, this is a priceless treasure that improves his fire mastery.

This is also why he could easily manipulate his fire mana outside his body during the final examination. Combined with the [Hellfire] ancient power, he could create his current explosion skill.

'Come to think of it. This explosion skill is more suitable to Vergil and his squat since they specialize in the explosion. Maybe I could visit and teach them a little bit.' said Angus.

After reading the old notebook for a while, "Hmm.. based on the father's research, there are many factors that need to be considered before using Firecast skill on natural fire. So far, I managed to narrow them down."

"First, I need to be able to sense the fire itself. With the blessing of the Ancient king Firelord and [Hellfire], I don't have any problem with this. But just to be sure, I need to see the limit of my senses." said Angus.

"Pavlon, are you there?" called Angus.

Then, a butler came out from the entrance.

"How may I help you, young master Angus?" said Pavlon respectfully.

'Hmm.. How did he know I called him? Wasn't this basement enchanted with a high isolation rune. Come to think of it, that old butler Darius in the royal palace also did the same thing as Pavlon. Does every butler in this world like that?' thought Angus.

After shrugging his unnecessary thought, "Call a few staff to help me with my training and bring a lot of matches and wooden sticks here." said Angus.

"As you wish, young master Angus." replied Pavlon before exiting the basement area.

While waiting for the staff to prepare, Angus takes out a cloth and a few potion bottles. This potion is actually a kind of anesthetic to numb his five senses. Sense of touch, smell, taste, hear, and look will be numb and reduced for a certain period.

At the current level of Angus, his perception is so strong that he could even detect everything around him just with his five senses. He needs to numb them at least to train his fire sense.
