I Just want a Peaceful life



"Let me rephrase it again. You are being chased by a pig with swords in his hand while trying to steal your pork ribs?"

"Yeah... And he has a horse head? With… metal helm, " said Anna, glancing at the nearby knight.

"Seriously?" asked Angus in disbelief at Anna's stupid lie.

"Yeah. He also ate a sandwich. Ahhh… Anna wants a sandwich!!" said Anna while drooling, looking at the knights eating a sandwich.

"Alright, forget I asked that. Did you already prepare your stuff?" asked Angus.

"Yeah. Anna is here. Onyx here. Magen here. Porky… Ahh!! Daddy, Anna forgot to bring Porky." said Anna.

"Anna, we can't bring the giant Porky. Why don't you bring his mini one?" said Jayna while carrying Anna.

"Ehh… But Porky will become a lazy pig if Porky leaves alone. Wait… Porky is already a lazy pig. He will get fatter again. Hmm… Anna wonders if Porky gets thinner. Is Porky still a pig?" blabbered Anna.

"Urgh… Here, eat this and don't cause any trouble now." said Angus while giving Anna a sandwich.

"Yay!! Thank you, Daddy!" replied Anna excitedly.

After spoiling and playing with Anna for a while, Angus began inspecting all the magic tools loaded into the carriage. He created these magic tools to help them forge Jayna's sword later.

Since it is made of precious material, he couldn't procure it from the isolated Everwhite city. It will also take too much time to create them on the spot. Still, its big size makes it unsuitable for storing inside a space pouch.

The space pouch may be a convenient magic tool, but it also has a lot of limitations. One of them is that they couldn't store anything larger than the pouch hole unless it was specially customized.

While Angus inspects and checks his stuff, he notices a luxury carriage approaching the Victory Manor.

"Halt!!" stopped the entrance guards towards the luxury carriage.

This scene is also noticed by everyone, including Duchess Amberblaze. She immediately signals the elite knights nearby to be vigilant.

The news about Angus' bounty makes her wary of any approaching stranger. After a while, the guard at the entrance walked in a hurry towards Duchess Amberblaze.

"Duchess Amberblaze, there is an envoy from the Duchess Sunarm. Should we let them enter?" asked the guard politely.

"Envoy from Tilla? Is it the Duchess Sunarm herself?" asked Duchess Amberblaze with a frown.

"No, it is Lizbet Sunarm, daughter of Duchess Sunarm." replied the guard.

"Hmm… Let her in only. Also, don't let her guards leave the entrance perimeter." ordered Duchess Amberblaze.

"Yes, My Lady." replied the nearby knights and guards.

At this moment, Angus notices this small commotion and approaches the Duchess.

"Is something wrong?" asked Angus.

"Here, look at this. Also, did you have some relation with the daughter of Duchess Sunarm?" asked Duchess Amberblaze.

The Duchess knows Angus' true characteristics. Although surrounded by beautiful talented women like Brigida and Lilith, Angus is very faithful to Jayna.

She knows Angus is far from those prodigal young male nobles. He is also a very busy man to have time for an affair, especially at this moment. Hence, she is confused at the sudden visit from Lizbet.

"This… Why would someone put a huge bounty on me?" asked Angus in confusion after reading the report.

"We are also still investigating this matter. According to our preliminary search, almost every city nearby has already posted this bounty." said Duchess Amberblaze.

"2 million gold coins. This is a ridiculous amount of money, even for high-ranking nobles. It is comparable to a high-ranking noble's total revenue for at least a few years." exclaimed Angus.

Angus knows not everyone is as rich as him. Not only could he procure monster material at their pristine condition, but he also got a portion of money for every Miasma Antidote sale. This makes Angus the richest man besides the king himself.

"As for the daughter of Duchess Sunarm, I never talked to or met her besides casual greetings at large social events before. But I hear she is trying to visit me in the last few days." asked Angus in confusion.

"It seems her clairvoyance ability has something to do with you." said Jayna from the side.

"Clairvoyance?" asked Angus in confusion.

"Hmm… I hear the daughter of Duchess Sunarm her prophetic ability. I thought it was just a baseless or exaggerated rumor. But, how did you know about this?" said Duchess Amberblaze.

Before Jayna replied, she glanced at Angus coldly.

'Not a word!!' said Jayna telepathically to Angus.

"I just heard some rumor from the noble in the capital, Aunt Extalia." said Jayna with a harmless smile.

On the other hand, Angus could only shake his head at Jayna's previous act. Through their bond, he immediately knows all she did before, including ordering Lilith to investigate Lizbet Sunarm.

Still, he didn't expect the daughter of Duchess Sunarm to be so adamant about meeting her because of her own prophecy. After waiting for a moment, Lizbet Sunarm walked towards them, escorted by the nearby guide.

"Greetings, Duchess Amberblaze, Fourth Princess, and Baron Victory." greeted Lizbet Sunarm with aristocratic bowing.

"Cut to the chase. What is your business here?" asked Duchess Amberblaze straightforwardly.

"As expected of the heroic Duchess Amberblaze. My sudden visit is to warn you to delay your trip this time." said Lizbet Sunarm.

"Is it because of your prophetic vision?" asked Duchess Amberblaze.

"Yes. If Baron Victory goes on this trip, he may have an unfortunate incident." said Lizbet.

Duchess Amberblaze and Angus glance at each other before nodding in silent agreement.

"Miss Lizbet, what did you know about your prophetic ability?" asked Angus.

"My ability… It is always accurate and never wrong. That's why I hope Baron Victory can stop this trip. Otherwise, it will implicate you and the whole kingdom." stated Lizbet boldly.

"Miss Lizbet, let's get inside first and tell us the details." said Duchess Amberblaze solemnly.

The whole nation's prophecy shouldn't be said casually in public. They know it is better to have a private talk.

Entering the Victory Manor, "So, can you tell us what you see in your vision?" asked Duchess Amberblaze.

"Around two weeks ago, I started to have terrible visions and dreams. It is as if a subsequent event. The first vision is about Baron Victory's fall. He will die stabbed by spears. Then, another disaster also comes to the Victory family." said Lizbet.

"Since then, more high noble families have also fallen like dominoes. Soon, the whole nation is destroyed." added Lizbet.

Seeing the silent reaction from everyone in the room, Lizbet couldn't help but become anxious. This was also the same reaction when she told her mother before. However, she believes in her vision and prophecy, as she is never wrong.

"I.. I know it may look absurd and unbelievable. However, this is what I saw and will happen." said Lizbet.

"*Sigh* Miss Lizbet, you truly don't know anything about prophecy. Normally, every prophecy is fixed and cannot be changed if what you saw is truly a prophecy and not your own hallucination." said Angus.

"No, it's true!! It is truly a prophecy!!" stated Lizbet adamantly.

"Yes, it's true and we believe you, Miss Lizbet. I don't think the daughter of Duchess Sunarm will go this length just for a simple prank. However, it would not change anything." interjected Duchess Amberblaze.

"W-What did you mean?" asked Lizbet in confusion.

"As I said, a prophecy should always come true and cannot be changed. However, it is a different case if it is related to seventh-grade people. Unless it is truly a unique fated prophecy that couldn't be changed, any ordinary prophecy is not 100% accurate." clarified Angus.

"B-But…" said Lizbet in disbelief.

"Say, Miss Lizbet. Did you see my uncle Jade or His Majesty King Leon in your vision?" interjected Angus.

"T-This… No, I don't see them. But, you could still die and what if what I saw is the fated prophecy you said before." said Lizbet.

"Then, I could ask you the same. How do you know if it is a fated prophecy? Whether I will be stabbed to death or not on this trip, I will still go to clarify it myself." said Angus.

"A-Are you not afraid? You could lose your life." asked Lizbet.

"There are many things that could make me fear. But death is not one of them. In this world, there are many things scarier than death itself. Compared to them, death is simply a good thing." said Angus solemnly.

Hearing this, Jayna and Duchess Amberblaze also nodded and agreed to Angus' world. With their long experience and Jayna's phoenix memories, they know death could be a relief rather than a scary thing.

'Delaying the trip just for being afraid of getting stabbed? What a joke. Even if I get stabbed until I become a porcupine, I will not die with my current regeneration. Still, I wonder if this woman has some other intention.' thought Angus inwardly.

'According to what Lilith gathered, she seems like a genuine seer with a reclusive characteristic. She may become an asset for the kingdom.' thought Angus.

"Miss Lizbet, why don't you clarify whether your prophecy is true or not. Rather than still arguing about your prophecy all day, it is better to witness it by yourself, right?" said Angus.

"Ehh…" said Lizbet in surprise.

"Vision is just a vision and not the real things. Whether you are right or not, we still need to clarify it. Also, I will not die easily." said Angus.
