I JUST WANT A PEACEFUL LIFE

The appearance of the ruler of the Heart Kingdom improved the situation. The entire Heart Kingdom's army and knights' morale went up high. They were akin to fanatical zealots and ready to execute their king's orders.

In fact, King Leon arrived on the scene a long time ago. Previously, he had already predicted Angus' ambush and attack. He knows with such a high bounty, there will be continued attacks from the bounty hunter.

It is also impossible to erase Angus's high bounty. The only way for them to cope with such a bounty is by eliminating strong bounty hunters at once.

The disappearance and failure of many strong bounty hunters at once will create a strong deterrent effect for others to accept such a bounty. The new seventh-grade combatants often used this method, which often worked well.

Such a situation could be said to be a baptism for all the new seventh-grade combatants. As long as they survive the ambush, everyone will recognize them as full-fledged seventh graders and leave them alone.

Since King Leon already knew about such a huge ambush, he also kept track of Angus's whereabouts. However, he didn't want to come out and help too early for fear of scaring the bounty hunters.

Furthermore, he also wants to see how Angus and the others handle the situation, especially her beloved daughter Jayna.

He never thought her genius daughter had grown so much that she could easily deal with a pseudo-seventh-grade. As a father and King, King Leon is genuinely proud of his youngest daughter.

On the other hand, King Leon's hidden presence couldn't be concealed from Angus's detection. This is also why Angus dared to let Jayna fight such a powerful swordmaster.

If the swordmaster throws his belief and uses other methods to fight against Jayna, King Leon could easily save her with his impeccable [Blink].

*CRACK* *CRACK* *GROOOAARR* The whole area suddenly trembled and filled with large fissures on the ground. From a distance, everyone could see a giant humanoid made of molten rock rise from the ground and get bigger as time passed.

Even the Duchess Amberblaze's giant greatsword is dwarfed compared to its size. Everyone also feels intense pressure from the rise of giant magma golem.

"Presumptuous!!" roared King Leon in anger.

*BANG* King Leon disappeared from his spot before clashing with the giant magma golem. As the seventh-grade king, King Leon hates the other seventh-grade move wildly in his kingdom.

"T-That's… Seventh grade!!" exclaimed the nearby knights.

"Move, hurry!! Retreat from the area!!" shouted Viscount Waterhell.

When two seventh-graders fight, all those below sixth grade must evacuate the area. Otherwise, they will be killed by a stray shockwave. This is the rule and standard procedure for any kingdom with the seventh grade as its leader.

Still, no one except the one-eyed dwarf Enos is actually at the seventh-grade level. They only thought this mad bounty hunter dwarf was at most pseudo seventh grade.

"Bornja.. Bornja!! Look… Isn't that a primordial giant?!!" exclaimed Kusibella while looking at the giant magma golem.

"Primordial Giant?!! That's… Gaia secret art!!" replied Bornja.

Hearing the two female dwarves' words, Angus also pays attention to the giant magma golem.

"Did you know anything about that?" asked Angus.

"If I am not wrong, it should be a Primordial Giant from Gaia secret art. Brat, you should know something about our dwarf's long heritage, right?" said Bornja.

"Just a little bit. What's wrong with it?" asked Angus.

"With our long heritage, we produce not only some godly artifacts but also countless forbidden techniques and skills. Among them, one secret art is named after the mother Earth, Gaia. I think you should know the importance of Gaia to us." said Bornja.

With dwarves' long heritage and diversity, many gods are born in their culture, especially those related to Earth. However, Gaia has a different meaning to the dwarf race. It could be said Gaia is a sacred being that transcends beyond anything for them.

None of the dwarves dare say her name while mentioning a beard, which shows how sacred and important such a being is for them. Yet, there is a secret art named after her.

In other words, this secret art is so powerful that it is comparable to Gaia's importance for the dwarf.

"To be honest, Gaia secret art is so powerful that no one could ever master or learn it after its creation. The rumor said Gaia is a secret art capable of creating primordial giants." said Bornja.

"You don't mean the primordial giant like those legends, right?" asked Angus warily.

"Yes, the same primordial giant that shapes our world." said Kusibella solemnly.

In dwarf culture and mythology, the world is not shaped on its own but by a powerful being called a primordial giant. These giants wield the power of elementals to sculpt the world as their masterpieces.

"The rumor said Gaia's secret art was stolen by a traitorous dwarf after he butchered his whole clan, who should protect it." said Bornja.

"Since then, no one has heard about it again besides some legend and myth. I never thought that the famous mad one-eyed Enos could master such a secret art," said Kusibella.

"True. He is the last person you will think of mastering such an art, " said Bornja from the side.

As a mighty warrior race with an eccentric nature, some dwarves also turn mad and bloodthirsty. It is not a rare case and the dwarf communities just turn a blind eye towards these people.

Most dwarves ignore them as long as they do not do something detrimental and break the community's law. Still, one-eyed Enos is too bloodthirsty and destructive even for the dwarf standard.

"Wait... If he uses it here… Brat, you should tell your king about the incoming of other seventh-grade dwarves," said Bornja.

"What did you mean?" asked Angus.

"The Gaia secret art has a very distinctive nature. Once it is used, most of the seventh-grade dwarves in the world may also feel it. This place may attract those people." said Bornja.

"Tch… This is going to be more troublesome." said Angus.

Although Angus didn't care too much about the kingdom's relationship with another seventh grade, he still knew no king like seventh-grade people came to their territory without any notice before.

Any seventh-grade person is akin to a strategic mass-murder weapon. In other words, every seventh grade has the potential to create a lot of destruction and destroy the whole kingdom.

No sane leader, especially the seventh-grade one, would allow these people to enter their territory without strict surveillance. Knowing such a dreadful situation, Angus immediately told King Leon using his long-range telepathy magic.

"Gaia secret art?!! Tch… What a headache!!" grumbled King Leon without stopping slashing the primordial giant.

Unfortunately, his attack is ineffective. The primordial giant is regenerated using the surrounding ground and gets bigger as time passes. The primordial magma giant almost covers the distance between the Alkin and its initial position in just a few moments.

Seeing such an enormous size, Angus and the others were also surprised.

"Woahhh…. Mommy, look!! Look!! It's super duper huge!!" exclaimed Anna happily.

In contrast, Viscount Waterhell and the other knights move frantically to shoot such a humongous primordial giant.

"Shoot it down!! Shoot everything you got!!" ordered Viscount Waterhell.

On the other hand, Angus still retains his calm while observing the primordial giant. Beside him, Jayna stares at the primordial magma giant with her fiery phoenix eyes.

In the meantime, no one notices a haggard mad Doctor Mirak chanting a very malicious magic not too far away from them. *WHOOOSHH* A dark red malicious aura suddenly erupted from Mirak's body.

"Naak…Lemo.. Saa.. BasrOOM!!! [Curse Magic - Hex]" screamed Mirak, stabbing the ugly doll before him.

*Splurt* *Cough* *Cough* Instantly, Angus feels something inside his body. The moment the invisible attack damages his body, he claps his hands. He radiates strange white energy all over his body [Absolute Diamond].

A white energy covers his body and makes his body invincible and becomes the hardest thing in the world. At the same time, a silver-white shield appeared in front of him and radiated a protective barrier around his body [Unbreakable Shield - Salvation]

"Angus!!" called Jayna in worry.

Angus's mind races on as he ignores everything, even the sudden activation of his ancient power. Using his sharp sense, he immediately focuses on the perpetrator Mirak in the distance.

'A curse attack?!!' thought Angus inwardly.

Noticing Angus is still not falling to his curse attack, "Die!! Die!! Die!!" roared Mirak madly while stabbing his dolls a few times.

Unfortunately, all his curse is deflected by Unbreakable Shield. It couldn't even scratch the silvery-white barrier.

By sheer coincidence, Mirak's surrounding terrain also changes into the primordial giant's body. By the time he noticed the surroundings, a massive giant magma wall had already been hurled over him.

Tons of molten lava and Earth instantly buried Mirak's body, leaving nothing but devastated land. With the sudden death of Mirak, Angus also feels the disappearance of the curse magic over him.

'I am not sure if I should be glad about this or not.' thought Angus inwardly.
