I Just want a Peaceful life

"Umm.. Aren't we supposed to help her?" said one of the bodyguards.

"No need, you may not know this, but Lady Jayna is stronger than what you thought. Even in our Sur village, she could be hailed as a genius among geniuses." said another bodyguard.

"B-But.. what if something happens to her?" asked the bodyguards again.

Before the other bodyguard could reply, "Then, it means she is just weak. However, I never remember having a weak girlfriend." said Angus while observing Jayna's battle with a smile.

Hearing Angus's bold declaration, the other bodyguard couldn't help but surprise even the one from the Sur Village. Angus's statement has a lot of different meanings to them.

But, one thing is for sure, Angus is confident that Jayna managed to beat the two third-grade Sorrow Snake alone. Seeing Jayna's battle, Angus couldn't help but be proud and happy at the same time.

To others, Jayna may not have made a lot of improvements. Still, in Angus's eyes, he knows that Jayna's combat capability is incomparable during the time she is in the Greenever Dungeon.

Seeing this major improvement makes Angus feel like seeing a kid grow up and stand on her own. Battling two third-grade monsters is the same as battling two fourth-grade combatants. In other words, Jayna is currently fighting two elite combatants.

Although monsters couldn't be compared to the combatant, it is already a miracle for a second grade to be able to keep up this long fighting against two-three grade monsters. Still, Jayna slowly falls into a disadvantage as her mana depletes faster than the two monsters.

Feeling the depletion in her mana, she decides to end her match quickly. Suddenly, she retracted her Flame Armor and retreated back. Not wanting to let their prey go, the two monsters immediately pursue Jayna.

Seeing this, Jayna smiled and immediately used Fiery Burst to appear in front of one of the pursuing snakes [Sword Art - Morning Beak]. Using her strong momentum, Jayna punctured the snake's head with her burning sword in the blink of an eye.

Jayna's sudden strong attack instantly killed one of the third-grade Sorrow Snakes. Seeing its partner dying under Jayna's attack, the remaining third-grade Sorrow Snake gets enraged and spits a black-colored liquid at her.

However, Jayna had already retreated and appeared dozens of meters away from her current location. The black liquid melted the ground and part of the third-grade snake's corpse. It also releases certain black-colored fumes into the air.

Jayna knows it will be dangerous to get in touch with this liquid and its fumes. Not giving Jayna time to think, the Sorrow Snake starts spitting the black liquid at her.

Jayna dodges the black liquid easily, but she realizes more ground is covered with this liquid, and it starts to create a lot of fumes in the air.

'This is bad. I couldn't allow it to spit black liquid.' thought Jayna.

Then, she uses Fiery Burst to approach the snake. Seeing this, the snake once again spits poison at the approaching Jayna. At this split second, Jayna uses another Fiery Burst to change her trajectory and avoid the black liquid.

Arriving in front of the Snake, Jayna immediately puts all her power into her sword [Sword Art - True Slash]. *Slash* the whole snakehead immediately cut into two. At the same time, Jayna slumped on the ground, exhausted.

Suddenly, she realizes there are still a lot of Sorrow Snakes not far from her. Just as she wanted to remain alert towards surrounding, a loud booming sound was heard not far from her.

"Yahoo.. Burst.. Burst all of you sneaky sneak!!" yelled Anna while killing the lower grade Sorrow Snake.

Seeing that the nearby snake is taken care of, Jayna feels relief and starts downing a mana potion to replenish her mana.

"Fiuuhh… That's a really close and hard fight, especially when the snake spits poisonous black liquid. But, you still managed to kill it." said Angus while approaching her and supporting her exhausted body.

"Yeah, but I guess I spend too much mana in fighting them." said Jayna.

"Relax, you are fighting not one but two third-grade monsters at the same time. It is already a great job you managed to kill them without sustaining any injury." said Angus.

"Still, this will slow our hunting pace." said Jayna.

"Oi.. Oi.. Did you forget about me? I am not going to let you and Anna hunt all the monsters nearby. I also want to try a few new spells." said Angus.

After that, Angus takes a deep breath while clapping his hand. Suddenly, Angus gathers and releases a large amount of mana.

Feeling the mana, "T-This is… comparable to the fourth-grade mana." said the bodyguard.

After silently casting the spell for a while, "Haa!! [4th Circle - Vulcan Shots]." yelled Angus.

Small fireballs come out from Angus's body and are released to the surrounding area. Not only that, the small fireballs kept increasing in number and soon filled the surrounding area.

"Haa.. Ha.. I think this is enough. Release!!" said Angus.

Suddenly, the small fireballs scattered towards the surrounding area. After a while, a series of explosions were heard from the surrounding area. *Bom* *Bom* *Bom* *Bom* The explosion kept occurring from far away.

Angus combines the Vulcan Shot with his explosion skill and creates hundreds of small bombs. These small bombs will immediately detonate after they hit their target. This is an enormous scale and precise spell that targets every monster in the surrounding area.

If it is not because of his [Great Mana Echolocation] and his high fire mastery, he will not do this kind of attack.

Although Angus attacks look simple, they actually need a lot of preparation. Angus was required to calculate and locate the exact position of each target using Great Mana Echolocation dozens of times before using the spell.

Unfortunately, the explosion is relatively mild and could only kill grade two below monsters. For the third-grade and a few special monsters, they will only get slightly hurt by these kinds of attacks. Still, it is an effective attack to cull down the number of monsters in a short time.

Seeing Angus's massive attack, Jayna couldn't help but pout.

"Hmph!! If you have that kind of attack, why don't you use it earlier?" said Jayna.

"Err.. I need a lot of preparation and calculation to use this kind of attack perfectly. Besides, it also consumed a lot of mana." said Angus trying to defend himself.

"Hmph.. Really?? You are not trying to show off, right?" said Jayna.

"O-Of course not. This kind of attack really needs a lot of preparation and calculation. I just happened to finish it after your battle." said Angus.

"Sure.. Sure…" said Jayna while going away towards Anna while leaving her boyfriend.

"J-Jayna, wait… It's true. I am not trying to show off." said Angus while following Jayna.

Looking at the two couples' interaction, the bodyguard could only chuckle silently.

Still, the three of them agreed about one thing, 'They are really a complete monster on their own.' thought the three bodyguards while following Angus and Jayna.

After that, they begin to hunt the remaining or survived monster from Angus's large-scale attack before coming back to Black Fortress. By the time they arrive at the Black Fortress, it is already late in the afternoon.

Then, they go towards Fosa to report about their hunt. Angus found that the other team had not yet returned from hunting the nearby monster. Unlike Angus and Jayna, they didn't have large amounts of mana and fast regeneration.

Therefore they need to hunt the monster carefully while being on the team. Even though there was a mana potion to replenish their mana, they couldn't use it carelessly and had a limited supply. Because of this, their hunting speed is very slow compared to the Angus team.

Hearing this, Angus couldn't help but look at the surrounding map on the big table.

"Hm… I think it will not matter if they managed to exterminate these monsters or not. Though we still couldn't leave them alone, I think it will be better if we focus on eliminating the monster in a certain area." said Angus.

"Eliminating monsters in certain areas?" asked Fosa.

"Yeah, during our hunt, I found that some of the monsters from other areas were coming towards our location. It seems they somehow know that the monster in that area is eliminated and not occupied by others."

"So, rather than spread our forces to eliminate the surrounding monster, we should just focus on eliminating them in a few areas. Although this method couldn't be applied to all types of monsters, it is still visible towards second or lower grade monsters."

"They are monsters that rely more on instinct than their own intelligence. With this method, we could speed up the process of eliminating the lower-grade monster.

"Moreover, there is a chance for monsters from deeper areas to come towards this area and make the elite team job easier." said Angus.

"That's certainly an interesting idea, though I am not sure it will work since the monster's behavior is unpredictable and different from one with the others. Still, I think it is better than our usual way of hunting." said Fosa.

"So, how big is the area we need to clear?" asked Fosa.
