I JUST WANT A PEACEFUL LIFE

[Dynamic Punch] *BAM* *BAM* *BAM* Jayna feels like getting hit many times simultaneously despite only seeing Angus launch one strike. Just before Jayna gets hit by Angus's attack, she covers her body with [Unbreakable Shield].

After experimenting with [Unbreakable Shield], they could change the shield shape and make it into an armor shape to cover their body. Unfortunately, changing the shield shape drastically lowers its sturdiness.

Still, it is enough to mitigate some damage as [Unbreakable Shield] always acts like a barrier skills/spells. However, Angus' strength is also not to be underestimated.

Currently, he has 57 points in strength attribute, which is almost eight times of ordinary human's strength (A/N. Ordinary humans are around 5-10 points.). Combined with his mana and superb skill, his punch could actually destroy a tank.

Feeling like getting hit by a train, Jayna immediately falls to the ground. *BOOM* She landed on the ground like a meteorite and created a large crater. Currently, her clothes are ragged, along with various bleeding wounds on her body.

Despite this, she still showed an indomitable fighting spirit. *Whoosh* [Sacred Fire] Jayna envelops her body with crimson fire that melts everything in the surrounding.

Holding her burning sword, she swung it towards Angus, who was still in the air [Sword Art - Fiery Wave]. A gigantic wave of fire moving toward Angus at fast speed. Seeing the incoming burning wave, Angus smiled a little bit.

He could feel the heat of the fire even before Jayna launched it. Angus knows this is no ordinary fire but Phoenix's [Sacred Fire]. Just being touched by it could burn his whole body to ash.

He also didn't know if [Unbreakable Shield] could defend against this kind of fire and didn't dare to test it casually.

Suddenly, Angus disappeared from his spot while a burst of fire appeared behind Jayna [Flame Blink]. Jayna couldn't react to Angus' sudden appearance as he touched her neck with his forefinger.

"Haa… This is ridiculous. Now, I don't even stand a chance against you just for a few minutes." said Jayna while she put out her sword.

Angus didn't comment and embraced his lover from behind to help her lean on her exhausted body. He knows Jayna will only feel bad if he tries to comfort her with words.

Although Angus loves her, he never has mercy on her during the sparring. He thought going easy on her during sparring was the same as inhibiting her fighting talent. Still, he rarely goes into a close combat battle with Jayna as he knows he is too strong for her.

Unfortunately, they didn't have time to nurture her slowly. They need to make Jayna ready to fight a sixth-grade combatant when she is twenty-one.

Sixth-grade combatants may not be as ridiculous as seventh grade, but they are still strong, especially the ones with the strength of pseudo seventh grade like their Aunt Extalia.

The pseudo-seventh-grade combatant has the combat power like the seventh grade but could not breakthrough for various reasons. This kind of person is dangerous and stronger than an ordinary sixth-grade combatant.

A few years of regular training will not be enough to fight them at Jayna's current level. Therefore, Angus decides to increase Jayna's training level. With her natural combat talent and [Analyze], she will grow faster after each fierce battle.

Moreover, she is also a Fire Phoenix with unnatural regeneration. Jayna may look to have various wounds now, but she could make them disappear in less than a second. She keeps her injury because she trains to get used to wounded pain and exhausted feeling.

Unlike Angus, who has ridiculous mana and natural regeneration, Jayna has limited mana and stamina but has various kinds of ridiculous passive skills attributed to Fire Phoenix. He taught her not to rely on her passive skill too much to maximize her combat talent.

By limiting her instant healing ability, she could learn not to make unnecessary movements and mana. It will also help her move reaction and decision-making in the battle.

Although Jayna's movement is already many times better than an ordinary combatant, she still falls short to sixth-grade combatants with at least a dozen years of experience.

The youngest sixth-grade human in Firuman is Jacob Victory, Angus' father, who is currently 55 years old. If the youngest sixth grade is almost 60 years old, the others could be more than a hundred years old, especially the ones that reach pseudo-seventh-grade level.

They didn't know if the other kingdom would send a pseudo-seventh-grade combatant for Jayna's World Contract, but they needed to prepare for any possible situation.

After Jayna healed her wound, Angus brought down the surrounding barrier while letting her lean on his body. As soon as the barrier was gone, they noticed Mira and Darren looking at them intently.

"Fire Phoenix." muttered Mira in a low voice.

"Hohoho… I never thought I would see someone with the Phoenix's ability." said Darren while giving them a cold towel like a butler.

Angus didn't deny the old vampire's hospitality and took the towel while wiping Jayna's sweat.

"Ohh.. Have you ever met with Phoenix before?!" asked Angus curiously.

"That's…" replied Darren.

Before he could speak further, "Darren." called Mira as she suddenly appeared in front of them.

Seeing his master for a moment, "Young Baron Angus and Lady Jayna, I am sorry. It is not my place to say those things." apologized Darren while bowing.

As Angus and Jayna are confused, Mira suddenly approaches the exhausted Jayna and creates a small green flame in front of her finger. The fire is flickering like a candle that could extinguish at any moment. However, it didn't die out despite being in an open space with a lot of wind.

While this is happening, Jayna is seriously looking at the tiny flame without saying anything. Through their bond, Angus knows Jayna is wholly focused and immersed in Mira's small flame while using [Analyze] at full capacity.

After a few moments, Mira took out her finger and let the small flame disappear. While this happens, Jayna is still focused on her mind and the small green flame.

"Learn well." said Mira shortly before returning to Anna, who was playing around with Onyx.

After the training and resting, they spend their time in the hotel. During the resting time, Angus once again inquired about his abnormal speed and physical strength by Darren. Fortunately, he could easily dodge this question by saying he used the Dwarf's secret technique.

This is also the same reason he told the others. Fortunately, everyone accepts this reason easily as they also hear Dwarf's secret technique to enhance their physical strength permanently. Still, there was one person that didn't believe him.

To his surprise, Aunt Extalia actually didn't believe him. She even suddenly launched a powerful attack on him the first time he told her this reason.

As Aunt Extalia is not serious, Angus could easily dodge the attack but it also reveals his actual speed, which according to her, is impossible for a second gate dwarf. After being argued with and pestered by his Aunt, Angus decides to tell her he has a customized core.

Listening to this, Aunt Extalia immediately hugs Angus and thoroughly checks his body for any hidden injury. She also told him about her accident when creating her core and getting saved by King Leon.

At that time, Angus didn't expect his brute Aunt to show this emotion and care. He already knows the gist of her core accident story from Jayna and hopes to use this to avoid further questions.

But, he didn't expect for stubborn Aunt to become more caring to him after hearing about his customized core. Fortunately, she never again pestered Angus about his abnormal physical power and speed.

Darren also accepted his reason and didn't ask further. However, Angus could somehow feel hidden intent in Darren's eyes. He knows this old vampire didn't believe his explanation. But Angus also didn't care about it either.

Darren only cares about his master's well-being. As long as Angus doesn't show any evil intention to Mira, he will leave him be even if Angus somehow has the power to hurt her.

Soon a day passed by, Angus and the others were finally able to take the entrance test as Crown Prince Eric fully recovered. To their luck, Nergal's group also refused and failed their fifth test again yesterday. Therefore, they still have time to catch up to them.

Unfortunately, they also couldn't make their group too big as it may increase their test difficulty. Therefore, they only let Angus' initial group with the addition of Mira, Darren, and Crown Prince Eric. There are also the two strongest Royal guards beside Roy following them.

The rest of the Sur Knights, Royal Guards, and Employees stay with the other young noble in Craghost Town. When the time hits the middle of the day, they depart to the test location and find many people already gathered.

They also find the Mad Monk Orpus along with the Nergal delegation group, but they choose to ignore them as there are Altras guards in the surrounding area.

Only stupid people dare to make a ruckus in this place. They never know how they upset the examiner and make the test' content harder.

After waiting a moment while stopping the naughty Anna creates a problem, the elder examiner's group comes out from the foggy path between the rocky hill.
