I Just want a Peaceful life

Chapter 406 Migrate

Seeing the arrival of King Leon, "It seems you got your charger." commented Jade.

"Shut up. Let's focus on this first." said King Leon while summoning his sword.

Meanwhile, the Krugguar Emperor didn't do anything and kept observing King Leon before raising his hand. Suddenly, his black spear appeared back in his hand.

"Damn… A fully mastered weapon artifact. Can't it get any worse?!!" said Ikalis while ready to cast a spell any moment.

At the same time, hundreds of monsters began to approach their location. Then, The Krugguar Emperor began to growl loudly with a piercing scream.

"KECHA!! KACE!! KAAKK!!" screamed the Krugguar Emperor.

Suddenly, all the monsters stop moving and go in the opposite direction of the Dark Forest. The three seventh-grade combatants also notice this and are confused.

"You are lucky, mage." said the Krugguar Emperor in a dreadful voice.

After that, the Krugguar Emperor turns into a bolt of black lightning and disappears into the sky. The nearby high-grade Krugguar also turns into lightning and follows their emperor.

The nearby insectoid monster ignores the three seventh-grade combatants and moves along with the other monster. As the endless monster horde moves farther away, the two dukes of the Heart kingdom finally arrive at their location.

"My king." said Duke Crestflare and Duke Quinn simultaneously.

Ignoring the two dukes, "Archmage Ikalis, thanks for your help fighting the Krugguar Emperor. However, can you give us some space? I need to organize my men." said King Leon.

"Sure, you saved my life anyway. However, I think you won't be able to play with King Andvari for a while." said Archmage Ikalis before flying in another direction.

Then, they looked at the endless stream of monsters coming from the Dark Forest. Both Jade and King Leon realize the monster seems to be moving to someplace rather than being attracted to the mana produced by their war.

Monster behavior is unpredictable and different for each species. However, the monster overlord's behavior could be guessed as they often did similar things since ancient times.

"Duke Crestflare, go back to Windshire and tell the others not to attack the monster horde unless they are attacking first." commanded King Leon.

"As you wish, my liege." said Duke Crestflare.

"Duke Quinn, gather your best people and investigate the Nergal's army condition. Also, how is the H squad?" said King Leon.

"The five of them did their task successfully and retreated without injury. They also manage to seal the grown Blood Terror before retreating." said Duke Quinn.

"Good, you may go now." said King Leon.

"Yes, my lord." replied Duke Quinn before disappearing into his own shadow.

Then, King Leon joins Jade in looking at the moving monsters.

"It seems it will take days before they pass by." said King Leon.

"Yeah. *sigh* If it is not because of them, we may be able to crush those Nergal." said Jade.

"Naturally, you have five homunculus at your command. You should kill yourself if you cannot destroy the Nergal army who is without Andvari." replied King Leon.

"Anyway, when did you see her again? I knew there was something when I heard the Duchess appear on the Thornbridge." said Jade.

"Well, a lot of stuff happens." replied King Leon while showing his worn-out metallic bracelet on his wrist.

Seeing the familiar bracelet, "Hahaha… I thought you lost that thing." laughed Jade.

"Over my life. This is the proof of our love. Anyway, keep monitoring this place. Leave the Fortress's matter to me." said King Leon before disappearing from his spot.

Noticing Leon far away from his location, "So, this is your true speed and power, huh? I guess I am still not fully adapting to my power yet." said Jade.

Year 1214 in the middle of the second month, the Krugguar Emperor and countless insect-type monsters migrate from the Dark Forest. No one knows the cause of this sudden behavior, but they know there will be calamity this year.

Monster Overlord migrating is not a strange thing in Firuman. However, no one could predict this Monster Overlord's route. Although some experts may be able to predict their destination, they still didn't know which way the monster would pass.

Whenever a monster overlord migrates in the past, there will be a lot of chaos and destruction following them. Be it kingdoms, small villages, or camps, all of them will be destroyed if they are on the monster overlord's way.

Furthermore, Monster Overlord possesses a highly intelligent and will back off if it finds any seventh-grade combatant nearby. This is why one could predict where its route will take.

At some point, the monster overlord's migration may bring more destruction than the monster overlord's invasion. Since everyone knows that the monster overlord is only passing by, most seventh-grade combatants/leaders nearby will tolerate it and let it pass without fighting them.

Monster Overlord is a dreadful living being that could kill seventh-grade combatants. Unless it is absolutely necessary, seventh-grade combatants usually will never bother them. Because each second they confront the monster overlord is like a life and death situation.

Monster Overlord possesses a high density of miasma, any people below the seventh grade will instantly die after being heavily injured by it. As for seventh-grade combatants, they may be able to fight for a while, but their fighting capability will deteriorate over time.

Although now there is a Miasma curing potion, they will never have a chance to use it while fighting Monster Overlord. In the end, fighting against a monster overlord is too much of a risk.

If the seventh-grade combatant had no real assurance, they would never bother to attack Monster Overlord and only leave them be. Moreover, the Krugguar Emperor is not an ordinary monster overlord like the last monster overlord who invades.

Krugguar Emperor is a monster overlord with complete mastery over lightning, miasma, and artifacts. Just having the first two mastery already makes it a very dangerous monster overlord.

Combined with owning an artifact, it becomes one of the most powerful monster overlords in Firuman. Even Jade, King Leon, and Archmage Ikalis weren't sure they could survive and hold the Krugguar Emperor if they truly fought.

Fortunately, the Krugguar Emperor notices that his fight may attract more seventh-grade combatants and decides to go on his way.

Otherwise, they will never know who is dying and surviving. A few days passed and the monster horde finally passed through the Humnia Grassland. According to experts, they predict the Krugguar Emperor will go to either Tristall Woodland or the Dark Continent.

Tristall Woodland is one of the monster habitats in Firuman. Unlike the Dark Forest, which is occupied by many kinds of monsters, only plantation and insect-type monsters live inside the Tristall Woodland.

However, to reach Tristall Woodland from its current location, the Krugguar Emperor needed to pass through many kingdoms. Moreover, Tristall Woodland is also near the elven kingdom, which will undoubtedly cause chaos and war since the elf race hates monster overlord.

On the contrary, the Dark Continent is a place with various kinds of disastrous weather and filled with strong monsters or beasts. Some explorers manage to find a massive desert kept rained by thunderstorms called Roaring Flatland inside the Dark Continent.

Roaring Flatland is located quite far from the monster overlord's current location. However, it only needed to pass through fewer kingdoms than going towards Tristall Woodland.

Since the Krugguar Emperor has a strong affinity toward lightning, there is a chance it will go to Roaring Flatland as many kinds of lightning-based monsters and beasts live there. Still, no one is sure, as there is no way to communicate with Monster Overlord.

All they can do now is just sit back and hope this dreadful monster, along with its monster army, will not pass through their kingdom. While the other kingdoms are on their guard against the monster overlord, the Nergal and Heart kingdom decide to make a temporary truce.

Except for the Heart and Nergal kingdom itself, no one knows that the Nergal army receives a massive hit in this battle. Furthermore, they still need to fight for their lives against the monster while retreating.

Only less than four hundred from thousand fourth-grade soldiers managed to survive with serious injuries. Furthermore, seven of their fifth-grade generals also died.

Five of them get assassinated at the start of the battle and two of them get killed while fighting against a group of fifth-grade monsters. This means half of their fifth-grade combatants have fallen and died.

Fortunately, their sixth-grade duke/duchess managed to survive. Still, this is a heavy loss for the Nergal kingdom. They didn't expect the Heart kingdom to be able to produce five highly-skilled assassins and possess few new strong skills/spells.

They never expected the Heart Kingdom would get a lot of strange and forbidden art from the Temple of Death's vault. With the help of Angus, these spells/skills could be altered and used with mana rather than divine power or another energy source.

Aegis Heart, Terror of Battlefield, and even Stand Ground are spells/skills that Angus altered for kingdom use. As the number one and the wealthiest religious group on Firuman, the Temple of Death possesses a vast network and influence.
