I Just want a Peaceful life-Chapter 559 Outrage
It takes Nabe almost an hour to keep Magen inside the barrier without killing it despite her expertise in biology, chemistry, and spells. Although she couldn't be said to be the best sorcerer, she is still one of the best regarding biology and poison.
In fact, she has already done some research about crabfrog poison before. But she never thought the venom from a living crabfrog was many times more potent than the one she found before.
After taking some potion to clear her mind from mental fatigue, she approaches the sleeping Anna, ignoring the small struggling beast. As she took a step closer, she immediately stopped walking and sidestepped.
*Swish* She finds a deep cutting mark on her previous spot. The cutting mark is long that stretches all the way to the cave wall in the distance. Nabe could also feel a potent miasma on the cutting mark.
"Did she wake up already?" asked Nabe as she observed Anna, who was still sleeping and occasionally mumbling the name of food.
Seeing Anna still sleeping like before, Nabe decides to test her by throwing a pebble at her. *Bang* Before the stone reached Anna, it crumbled into pieces. In a split second, Nabe could see Anna's hand moving very fast, producing a claw-like attack.
The movement is so fast that even Nabe could hardly see it if not for her sharp perception. Not only is it fast, but it is also strong and precise.
'An attack like that should destroy the pebble and anything behind it. Yet, it only destroys the pebble. It means the attack is very controlled and precise to only target the pebble.' thought Nabe.
After observing and throwing a few small things, Nabe concludes that it is actually Anna's defense mechanism when sleeping.
"Interesting… Still, I am not sure what is the trigger for her defense mechanism. Is it intent? Or anything dangerous? But, those two beasts could easily come and go near her. What a peculiar way." said Nabe while grinning and writing something on her notepad.
After a while, she had enough observing and decided to inspect Anna closer. In a split second, she appeared in front of Anna and grabbed her little hand before she tried to attack her.
It takes quite an effort for Nabe to hold her hand without injuring her since her physical strength is absurd.
"Huaamm… *Yawn* Angus, Big sis, is it time for breakfast?" yawned Anna while rubbing her sleepy eyes with her other hand.
'Did she really sleep through all this commotion?!!' thought Nabe, chuckling at Anna's adorable behavior.
"Morning, little Anna." called Nabe as she released her hand.
"Huh?? Where are Angus and Big sis?" replied Anna while looking around.
"They are…" replied Nabe.
Before Nabe finishes her sentence, "Where are Angus and Big sis?" asked Anna with a cold tone.
"Anna, they are still…" as Nabe tried to calm her.
"WHERE ARE ANGUS AND BIG SIS?!!" shouted Anna loudly.
Nabe was surprised at the sudden outburst as Anna released a massive miasma wave toward the surrounding area. The shockwave is powerful and destroys the surrounding, even cracking the sturdy cave wall.
Nabe receives a full blunt force and is thrown into one of the cave walls. The shockwave also destroys the barrier that traps Magen and Onyx. The two beasts immediately approach their furious master.
"Where are Angus and Big Sis?!!" shouted Anna again.
She runs in a random direction and passes through the cave wall like it is made of paper, leaving the slightly injured Nabe behind.
"Urgh… That's unexpected. I never thought her reaction would be this violent after that adorable sleepy face. I guess it is true about monster-minded people being unpredictable." muttered Nabe.
"Well, this is also good since I could observe if the dungeon could withstand this kind of damage." thought Nabe as she inspected the hole left behind by the berserk Anna.
At the same time, Mira suddenly stops reading and looks in a particular direction for a moment. Darren, beside him, also notices his master's sudden change in behavior along with Anna's energy spike somewhere.
"Master??" asked Darren as if he was waiting for her order.
Mira only shakes her head before returning back to read her book like she didn't notice her bestfriend's outrage.
Seeing her master decide to ignore things, Darren returns to his spot and serves her master like before. However, he also secretly monitors Anna.
At this moment, monsters begin to run away and move as far as possible from berserk Anna. Unfortunately, the little monster breaks through the wall too fast and meets with some unfortunate monster.
Anna ignored the beast but didn't stop her advance and charged at them like an unstoppable train. As a result, many beasts and people died under Anna's reckless charge. The last thing they hear is Anna screaming about Angus and Big sis madly.
In the meantime, Angus and Jayna become frustrated. It had been a few hours since they arrived at this unknown dungeon. Despite continuing to move and running swiftly, they can still not locate their aunt or Anna.
Instead, they find more knights or people from their embassy. Even now, there are about ten knights following them during their search.
"Well, at least we are now certain that everyone in the capital city is teleported here and not just some random people. It means we could still find Anna." said Jayna trying to ease Angus' worry.
"Yeah. About that. I think we are not truly teleported somewhere." said Angus.
"What did you mean?" asked Jayna back.
"I am 70% sure we are still in the capital, but it somehow changed into this artificial dungeon. We randomly change location because the thing that turns the whole area into a dungeon also distorts the space." explained Angus.
"Normally, this teleportation process is very complicated and could be resisted. But, we are inside Nirvas dimension. Everyone is under the rule of this dimension which makes the process easier."
"In return to recover the space distortion, the dimension changes everyone's location randomly. It is like you scramble puzzle pieces to create a new form than the original one. Hence, every puzzle piece will be in a different location than its original position." explained Angus.
"I see… Then, why do I feel this dungeon is bigger than Redmore's area? It's been a few hours since we moved around. Yet, we still have not found its end. With our speed, we should have covered the Redmore land area long ago." said Jayna.
"That's because of this moving dungeon wall. The wall keeps moving at random internally and makes an underground ant nest-like shape. We may already cover more than the capital city area in the land but not in mass or the air area." explained Angus.
"In simple terms, we could cover 100 meters without effort. But, it will take time and effort to cover 100 square meters, much less 100 cubic meters." added Angus.
"No wonder this place looks so huge without end and we hardly find people besides the wild monsters lately." said Jayna.
"Yeah. But that's not the only problem." said Angus.
"Hmm??" responded Jayna.
"It's our supplies. Unlike us, who store our things in our storage tools, the others didn't bring their supplies when they got teleported. Some of the knights didn't bring their weapons and only had casual clothes when they got teleported." said Angus.
"In other words, we shouldn't stay here for too long." continued Jayna.
"Yeah. For now, we didn't need to worry about food and water since we still had some. Our healing art also covers the medicine part. But this is just temporary. We also need to get proper weapons and armor." said Angus.
"That's certainly a problem." said Jayna before noticing her boyfriend looking in a different direction.
Knowing his intention through their bond, "Angus, are you sure?" asked Jayna. 𝐟𝓇ℯ𝐞𝚠𝚎𝒃𝑛𝒐ѵe𝚕.co𝚖
"Jayna, I am beyond frustrated and angry now. I tried to keep my emotion and barely used our bond to not affect you. I am actually furious about this whole situation."
"Not only did this place put you in danger, but we also don't know Anna's whereabouts." said Angus while looking at the ground.
"Now, all I want is just butchering those bigoted Altras indiscriminately to quell my frustration. No, I think it is a good idea." said Angus while leaking his killing intent.
"Angus!!" called Jayna as she hugged him.
Angus is surprised at this and tries to calm himself. After taking a few deep breaths to control his emotion, he finally calmed down. Angus may have great control over his emotion, body, and mind. However, he also has a reverse scale and bottom line.
This whole situation is not only touching Angus reserve scale but also hitting it hard like a drilled pile. It is already a miracle Angus didn't become furious and go berserk.
In the meantime, the ten knights do not comment on anything to Angus and Jayna's close gesture or conversation. They are too ashamed of themself. Not only do they need to get protected by their lord, but they also slow their advance since they need to rest once in a while.
Angus may not care about their life, but he never abandons them. For him, only the weak left each other. His pride will never allow him to do such a disgraceful act. He prefers to see these knights die in battle than die because of being abandoned.
