I Just want a Peaceful life

Chapter 186: Battlefield Arena Tournament

Dragging Jayna inside Angus's tent, "Kyaa.. Angus, what are you doi.." Jayna starlet at Angus's sudden action.

Before she could finish her sentence, Angus suddenly kissed Jayna in the mouth. *Muach* Getting kissed by her boyfriend made Jayna starlet a little bit, but she didn't fight back and enjoy every moment with Angus.

After a long passionate kiss, Angus finally pulled away reluctantly from Jayna.

"J-Jayna, I-I am sorry. I just…" said Angus while feeling uncertain.

Looking at Angus's strange behavior, Jayna remembered his story of fading away in the inner area and immediately hugged Angus.

"It's okay. I am here." said Jayna.

Being hugged by Jayna, Angus feels all his fatigue loosen up at once. Somehow, he feels warmth and relaxation from Jayna. All he wants right now is to stay by Jayna's side like this. Soon, their fatigue finally catches up and makes them sleep under each other's embrace.

After half a day of resting, Angus and Jayna finally wake up while embracing each other. Although they often sleep together before, they begin more intimate after the incident inside the inner area.

After another few moments of resting, they reluctantly gather themself and wake up. After doing some simple cleaning, they decide to go towards the Clan Head Jade location. They still want to participate in the Battlefield Arena to test their newly acquired power.

After a few inquiries, there are still a few days left before the tournament at the Battlefield Arena begins. Using this opportunity, both of them decide to rest and relax for the next few days.

Unlike the other people who need to rest for a few days to recover their mana and strength after getting exhausted, Angus and Jayna only need around one day to fully recover.

Still, they want to rest properly and be ready to fight anytime, especially after knowing the insidious plot from the other village before. Now, they are already seen together with the Sur village group. The other villages may also start to target them anytime.

While Angus and Jayna have their rest, inside one of the big residences on the Black Rock Village gather a group of strong combatants.

"Alright, let's start the meeting." said the Black Rock village leader, Datun.

"According to our information, none of the mercenaries that we hired to ambush Sur Village's young generation managed to come back from the inner area." said one of the people in the room.

"Tch.. those damn weaklings couldn't even kill a bunch of youngsters." commented another person.

Unlike the other village, Sur village is pretty harsh at their upcoming age ceremony. As long as they reach the age of fifteen and form mana core, they must follow the upcoming age ceremony inside the inner area.

So, the majority of the people that go into the Sur village are only grade one combatants, with Neil the only one that reaches grade two. Although it is harsh, it also pushes the people to work harder to survive.

Furthermore, the inner area is not a dangerous place. Most of the monster is only grade one with few grade two, As for the grade three monster, they rarely are found and only stay at their spot.

Because of this, killing these youngsters should be an easy task for the group of mercenaries they hired.

"I hear there are some capable people among this new youngster. One of them even managed to kill a grade three combatant with only [Mana Ball]." said another person.

"Grade three combatant only with Mana Ball?!!" exclaimed the other inside the room.

"Yeah, actually, this youngster is fighting in the Battlefield Arena a few days before the inner area opens. Yesterday, some of my people saw him among the Sur village youngsters." said another person.

"Huft.. Sur village is really the cradle of young genius. Their growth is really absurd. In just a hundred years, they managed to become on par with our village. If we left them alone, they might be the one that would crush us." said another person.

"Still, we can't do anything. The moment we decide to act, the other village will take that advantage to attack us." said another person.

Then, all the people inside begin to argue with the others while the village leader, Datun, stays silent.

After a while, "That's enough, all of you." Before Datun could speak more, a guard came into the tent bringing a piece of letter.

Passing the note to the village leader, Datun opened and read the letter. After reading the letter for a while, Datun couldn't help but smile happily.

"Alright, everyone. It seems we are not the only ones that see Sur village as a threat." said Datun with a smirk.

Another few days passed by peacefully, and the time of the Battlefield Arena tournament finally came. The tournament is only for the grade three combatants below. As long as the participant has passed this requirement, they could participate in this tournament.

Angus and Jayna, along with the rest of Sur village youngsters, decided to participate in the tournament. Although the village youngster is only grade one combatant, they all have excellent combat capability to fight on par with average grade two combatants.

Furthermore, they also could accumulate fighting experience in this way and bring honor to the Sur village. However, it is still quite dangerous to participate in this tournament since most are grade three combatants.

At first, because of the casualty inside the inner area, Clan Head Jade was quite reluctant to let all this youngster participate.

But, looking at each of these youngsters' determined expression, Clan head Jade decides to give them a chance to bring honor to their Sur village.

Now is the day when the tournament begins. Because of the large number of participants, the tournament was divided into two parts. The first part is the preliminary stage, and the second part is the final stage.

In the preliminary stage, the participant will fight for points for five days. The top ten people who got the most points will enter the final stage. Each participant will have one point at first. They will get all the opponent points after killing or defeating them.

Furthermore, participants with higher points could not refuse challenges from the participant with lower points. At the same time, the lower participant could refuse the challenge from the higher point participant.

Still, each participant could only be challenged up to three times, but they could fight more if they wanted.

After registering their name in the Battlefield Tournament, Angus and Jayna get a badge as the indicator they are a participant of the tourney.

Since they didn't want to fight each other until the final stage, they decided to come to the inside arena to look for an opponent. They wear their badge on their clothes without any intent to hide it.

Some of the people recognize Angus from his first fight in the Battlefield Arena before. Most of the fighters were reluctant to fight experts like Angus in this preliminary stage.

Seeing that nobody dares to challenge him, Angus decides to challenge someone interesting from the arena.

As for Jayna, she decided to challenge everyone who wore a badge indiscriminately to gather points. While Jayna is having her own fun beating up some fighters, Angus found few interesting individuals entering the tournament.

These people are an orc called Ilgor, the ice maiden he found before, rumored dark elves called Miesta, a swordsman named Filiel, a magician called Houst, and many others.

After thinking for a while, Angus decided to challenge the current highest point person called Rondak the Boulder, a veteran of this tournament. Based on his previous fight, he seems to have some proficiency in the earth element.

Appearing in front of Rondak, who just finished his battle, "Let's have a fight." said Angus shortly while flashing the number of his badge.

Since he has not fought everyone before, his badge only has the number of one, while Rondak has the number of five. It means during this short time, Rondak managed to gather five points.

"Ohh.. If I am not wrong, you are the mana ball guy. Actually, I don't want to fight someone of your caliber on the first day of the tournament. Well, since you have a lower point than me, I guess I can't refuse it. Alright, let's get going and get over it." said Rondak

Arriving inside one of the divided areas, Angus and Rondak are staring at each other while the referee gives his usual introduction. A moment later, the fight started.

Rondak immediately covers his whole body with earth elemental mana [Earth Armor] before dashing towards Angus. While this happens, Angus only looks at Rondak calmly.

Appearing in front of Angus, Rondak immediately brandished his mace down without any hesitation towards Angus. At this moment, Angus shoots a fast [Firebolt] towards Rondak's fingers, gripping the mace. *Bum*

Normally, this kind of attack could be ignored by Rondak. However, Angus [Firebolt] is modified in quality, speed, and power. The precise attack managed to stop the Rondak attack at one point, stopping his momentum.

Without wasting this opportunity, Angus shoots more [Firebolt] towards various weak spots in Rondak's Earth Armor while using [Analyze]. *Bum* *Bum* *Bum*
