I Just want a Peaceful life

Chapter 690 Locked Down

?

While the Duchess and King Leon enjoy their moment, an unlucky beastman becomes more anxious and spooked inside the Royal Palace as time passes. As for the reason, it is because a particular twin star spirit is getting bored.

Meanwhile, Angus also received King Leon's secret code with a frown. It is not because he finds the code is fake or getting cracked.

In fact, Angus never worried about their secret code being cracked since only King Leon and Angus could use the code. Both Angus and King Leon know they have perfect memory and use this trait to make code according to their past interaction.

Except for Angus and King Leon, no one knows what this code means. Even if they somehow crack it, they will only get a series of time and date pointing to Angus and King Leon's past interaction.

Using this code, Angus and King Leon could not only hide their conversation but also exchange information with a short message code.

Currently, Angus frowns because King Leon told him to do whatever he likes and advises him to stay at the Undermine Council. If it is not because they exchange secret codes according to their past interaction, Angus will definitely think the code is fake.

Furthermore, he also hears that the mad beastman Warchief Might will come to this Undermine Council even if it is locked down.

'No matter how I thought about it, we should grab our things and leave here as soon as possible. So, why did he ask me to stay and observe the situation?' thought Angus inwardly.

Angus was perplexed at this stubborn king. Over the years, Angus and King Leon have interacted many times, even more than his father. During this interaction, he finds the stoic and cold-blooded king is very wise.

If Angus didn't have [Analyze], he probably would never find this wise character in him. Every move he takes always has deep meaning and comes from huge consideration. Even his actions to not pursue his lover, Duchess Amberblaze before, is to avoid another civil war and create instability.

Now, most of the high nobles with powerful combatants were already on his side, while the rest were only official in name. A noble with only fake rank authority and no real combat power.

Therefore, he didn't need to fear the other nobles to create rebellion and chaos since they never had power in the first place. These nobles only think about having a luxurious life rather than creating rebellion over their king's marriage.

Such a simple move has profound consideration and thought. Angus will not believe that King Leon's advice to stay is just on a whim.

'Hmm… Did he want me to experience 'the world'? But why? I will not be a king and this is too much just for the future pillar's 'training'. But, I can't find another reason.' thought Angus inwardly.

'Jayna, what did you think?' asked Angus through their bond.

At the same time, Jayna also frowned and thought carefully. Currently, they communicate through their bond while Angus is on the rooftop and Jaynai is inside the bathroom with Anna.

Nearby Jayna, Anna is playing with the bubble soap from the bubbling bath. Besides eating, Anna also likes to bathe and play with soap bubbles.

'I think Father only wants us to get something from this incident.' replied Jayna through their bond.

'Seriously?? That's stupid.' replied Angus straightforwardly.

'You know, Seventh grade is good reading things and patterns. Since every time we get caught in trouble, we will get something in return. Father may have thought we may also get something big from this incident. That's why Father 'advises' you, not 'orders' you.' explained Jayna.

'Make sense. So, what should we do?' asked Angus.

Jayna didn't reply, only looking at the cheerful Anna playing with bubbles.

'We should return as soon as possible. I don't want Anna to get hurt.' replied Jayna straightforwardly.

Hearing these words, Angus could only shake his head as he knows Anna is probably the last person they should worry about if something happens.

However, he also agrees with her. They should not get involved in this matter. They also still have another chance to get dwarf smithing tools later.

'Alright, pack your things and meet me outside.' said Angus.

"We will leave this place." said Angus to the nearby beastman.

"Then, I hope you return safely." replied the beastman.

Before Angus could leave the rooftop, "Wait.. What? You are not serious, right?" said the Mulcosa Beastman in panic.

"Yonghi, what happened?" asked the beastman in worry.

"It's already begun. The lockdown." replied Yonghi.

*Wung* As soon as he said this word, the entire Undermine Council released a reverb sound. Then, they could see various bluish runes covering all the outer boundaries. People could also find a mechanical sound heard all over the place.

Some perceptive people even feel the high sky is covered with unknown metal. Most people didn't know what truly happened from this sudden significant movement.

Even most of the dwarves also did not expect a sudden lockdown. Seeing this, Angus could only take a deep breath to calm his mind. Currently, he is quite frustrated as this situation always happens and is repeated.

Whenever they try to avoid trouble, it will force them to face it. Still, he is not just going to sit idle either this time.

He may not know what Elder Dumrod is planning or what disaster he will bring upon them, but he will not just silently wait for it. Fortunately, it is not a completely hopeless situation.

Although most people are already gone, some choose to stay. These people are renowned experts or merchants who bring a lot of supplies.

"Alright, change of the plan. You two stay in our room and wait for my return. If I find Jayna and Anna get hurt even a single hair, I will make sure your Savan Kingdom disappears." said Angus coldly before disappearing using Beast Walk.

During this time, Angus knows he is racing against time. The supplies from the merchant and expert brought are limited and may be bought by others who also have the same idea as him. Therefore, he needed to move fast and buy useful goods to arm themselves.

Angus's experience during the instant dungeon incident last time told him that there is no such thing as having too many weapons and arms during an emergency situation.

Fortunately, what he currently lacks is money. He also didn't need to bother about the negotiation either. As long as the other party is willing to sell, he will buy anything. During Angus' shopping spree, many visitor rebels even fight with the dwarf guards.

Unfortunately, most of them do not match with the strong dwarf equipped with the top-grade weapon. As for the powerful people, they just ignore this disturbance. Since they are not leaving this site, they already know something will happen and are preparing for it.

Meanwhile, three figures move in a flash above the Athan Ocean, one of the biggest monster habitats. After traveling for a while, they finally stop and look at the deep blue sea from the air.

"Is this the place? Look no different than any other ocean part." asked Nathya, The Empress of Shana.

"Rather than worry about it, don't you think this move will only provoke the Kraken?" asked Volgoth, Demon Lord of Kaban.

"Just do your job and keep the fish at bay." said Warchief Might while looking at the deep ocean below.

"This is crazy. How were you even sure that the rumor about the Undermine Council being deep below the Athan Ocean is true?" asked Volgoth in frustration.

However, the Warchief Might no longer hear Volgoth's words and closes his eyes to gather his strength. Seeing this, Volgoth could only shake his head in frustration. Even Nathya is speechless at the current Warchief Might current action.

The current relationship is not so good that they will willingly help each other. In fact, they have some resentment towards Warchief Might, especially Volgoth. Volgoth kingdom, which is Kaban located not too far from the Savan Kingdom.

They often get into conflict and fight each other. As for Nathya, she hates men no matter their race. She never likes men, especially with rude and brute nature like Warchief Might. They only help him because they owe him a favor in the past.

As the seventh grade, they couldn't ignore the debt from another seventh grade. It is not only against their principle but could also give a certain setback in their growth.

Still, it frustrated them as Warchief Might also knew they had their own principle to not strike him in the back at this moment and entirely focus on gathering strength.

"Tch… Whatever, if that Kraken comes out, I will immediately leave from here." said Volgoth.

As time passed, a mysterious force slowly emitted from Warchief Might's body. At first, it is more subtle than slowly getting stronger following his breathing.

In response to this mysterious force, the bright cloudless sky suddenly turned darker and the calm ocean stirred. Using their perception, they know the ocean-type monster is gathering around and attracts towards them.

"Volgoth, I leave them to you." said Nathya coldly.

"What's your tongue Qitah?! I am still a demon lord, not the lackey you could order." grumbled Volgoth but still made his move.
