I Just want a Peaceful life

After giving the nearby monster information to Fosa, they begin to discuss which area they will get to hunt the monster. Since this task could be used as part of the Graduation Mission, they decided to hunt in a more crowded area to get a better result.

As Fosa knew the three of them were capable, he agreed with their choice. Angus, Jayna, and Anna enter the Dark Forest perimeter while accompanying a few bodyguards.

Since having too many people will gather and attract a lot of monsters, they decide only to bring three bodyguards during their hunt inside the Dark Forest.

At first, they didn't want to bring any bodyguards. But, their bodyguard is adamant about following them no matter what. Therefore, they could only reluctantly accept them.

On the way towards the Forest from the Inner base, Angus decides to check his status to find his current Soul Points.

Host: Angus Victory

Age: 17 Years Old

MP: 600/600

Chi: 242

Heritage chi: ???

Strength: 48

Dexterity: 48

Intelligence: 48

Vitality: 46

Soul Point: 398,452

Soul Reserve: 491

'T-Three hundred thousand!! No, it's almost four hundred thousand!!' thought Angus.

Looking at his current soul points, Angus couldn't help but feel like hitting the jackpot. He already knows that he will get a lot of soul points since he received a lot of notifications. But he didn't think it would be this much.

Angus needs years or at least half a century to get this amount of soul points with his current automatic battle. Currently, Angus gets around 20 soul points every day from the automatic battle.

Compared to the price of one attribute point, it feels like comparing a drop of water and a lake. Therefore Angus often worked hard in gathering soul points through the manual battle system during his free time.

Now, he suddenly gets almost four hundred thousand soul points. It will be lying if he is not feeling ecstatic and happy about it. He feels like a dehydrated man in the endless desert that suddenly finds a pool of drinkable water.

Then, Angus immediately increases all his attributes by one without hesitation. Even though he had a lot of soul points, he didn't dare to raise a lot of his attributes at once and lose his perfect body control.

Unless he is inside a dangerous place like the Endless Battlefield dimension, he will not carelessly increase his attribute more than one point at a time to keep his perfect body control in sync.

At this point, the effect of increasing one attribute point through the system feels very unnatural for Angus. For each increase of his Strength attribute, he feels his muscle buffed by an unknown force.

This makes it harder for him to use a skill that requires great precision strength. That is the same case for each increase in his Dexterity attribute.

Since Dexterity affects his reaction body speed, he often feels a little bit of discoordination between his mind and body during fast movement. It would become worse if it combined with the increase in Intelligence attributes.

The Intelligence attribute affects his memory and thinking speed. The memory will have little effect on his daily life and battle, but the thinking speed is important during the battle.

In the worst case, he could feel that his body had already hit a target, while in reality, he was still not hitting his target. This kind of misjudgment will be fatal when he is inside a battle.

On the other hand, the endurance attribute is the only attribute with the least effect on his combat capability. Still, it also increases his body's appetite and gives various discomforts around his body. It may not affect too much in the battle, but it may affect his daily life.

However, increasing his attributes through soul points is better than through training. With his current attribute, he needs years of hard work and training just to improve one point of an attribute.

Therefore, Angus will still choose to increase his attribute through soul point but with a moderate pace to keep his perfect body control.

'Haa.. If I knew this would happen, I should visit this place sooner or even before coming to the Endless Battlefield dimension.' thought Angus.

'Well, it is no use to think about it. Now, we need to focus on this matter first.' thought Angus while their group entered the Dark Forest perimeter.

Entering the Dark Forest, Angus begins to cast [Great Mana Echolocation] to find the surrounding monster's location.

"Hmm… Which one do you choose first? Flaming Bear, Mandile, Sorrow Snake or Barculos?" asked Angus.

"Ehh… So many choices. Well, let's get the nearest one first." said Jayna.

"Alright, then let's go towards the Sorrow Snake nest first." said Angus.

"Yey.. Bursting Sneaky Snake." commented Anna.

Then, they begin to venture deeper into the forest, leaving the group of logger and forager sight in the forest outskirts. After a while, they arrive at the Sorrow Snake nest. The Sorrow Snake is a venomous snake monster that is quite docile when left alone.

However, they are also easily offended and will start to release a sorrowful scream. The scream is similar to someone crying in pain. Once it screams, the other nearby snake will also begin to release the sorrowful screaming.

People could withstand one or two sorrowful screams. But if five or more of them scream simultaneously, it will start to affect the people. Some weak-willed one even could unconsciously suicide on the spot from hearing it continuously.

This makes the Sorrow Snake nest avoided by ordinary adventurers. Furthermore, Sorrow Snake is kind of a weird monster. They keep using sorrowful screaming while attacking. This gives the impression of torturing the monster when fighting them.

For a strong-willed combatant, they could easily ignore the annoying scream. But, the first-timer may get depressed or even suicide on the spot if they hear this kind of sorrowful screaming continuously.

Seeing a group of snakes lying on the ground without care of the surroundings, "Alright, as our previous agreement, you three will not interrupt with our hunt unless it is absolutely necessary." said Angus towards the three bodyguards.

"Yes, young master." replied the three bodyguards.

Suddenly, a weird sound is coming from the group of Sorrow Snakes.

"Kyya.. Kyaa.. Arrgghh… " various sorrowful screams were heard from the snakes.

At the same time, Anna starts butchering the snake without mercy. Her small body immediately got splattered by the snake blood while she squashed the snakes with her ridiculous physical strength.

"Lalala.. Burst.. Burst.. Burst all of you!!" said Anna while giving an excited smile.

Anna's expression is similar to a crazed person despite her cute appearance. Combined with her bloody appearance, the three bodyguards feel like they see an embodiment of evil or a heinous monster.

Then, Angus hears another sorrowful scream from far away while detecting many Sorrow Snakes approaching their location.

"Jayna, there are others coming to this location." said Angus.

"Leave them to me. I will shut their annoying cry." said Jayna while unsheathing her sword.

Sensing the incoming Sorrow Snake within her perception, Jayna covers her entire body with crimson fire. The Fire is so hot that it could easily burn the nearby dry wood. Suddenly, Jayna disappeared from her spot and appeared in front of the Sorrow Snake group [Fiery Burst].

*Slash* *Slash* *Swish* Jayna easily cuts down the Sorrow Snakes with her burning sword. Despite the thick and tough scale, these Sorrow Snakes couldn't even withstand Jayna's casual slash.

Just in a few minutes, Jayna managed to butcher and kill dozens of grade one and two Sorrow Snakes. In the middle of butchering, Jayna feels a fast incoming attack from her side. Fortunately, she managed to react and parry the incoming attack with her sword. *Bam*

The attack force was more powerful than Jayna thought and forced her to slide a few meters backward. Before she gets her bearings, she notices a largemouth trying to swallow her body, coming from her side.

In a split second, Jayna used [Fiery Burst] and avoided getting eaten alive by the Sorrow Snake. Jayna creates some distance and finally sees her enemies. She finds two enormous Sorrow Snakes different from the rest.

From her sense, she finds these two are grade three Sorrow Snakes. They used the sorrowful scream of the nearby snakes to cover their approach and make a sneak attack on Jayna.

Fortunately, Jayna is already trained to react appropriately when she gets such a sneak attack by Angus. Otherwise, she may get fatally injured by their sneak attack.

Seeing the two grade three Sorrow Snake, Jayna couldn't help but smile excitedly. Feeling her excited emotion, the fire surrounding her also shines brightly.

Taking a stance, Jayna used a Fiery Burst and started to clash with the two snakes. *Clang* *Bang* *Swish* Jayna and the two snakes begin to fight equally.

Unlike the grade two below Sorrow Snake, these two snakes could cover their body with miasma and withstand Jayna's casual attack.

Jayna at least needs a big strong attack to penetrate their defense. However, the two snakes will not let her easily prepare for such an attack. Therefore, she entered into a stalemate situation with them. Despite the hard fight, Jayna becomes more excited and hits the snakes harder.

Looking at the princess fighting alone, "Umm... Aren't we supposed to help her?"
