I Just want a Peaceful life

While the world falls into chaos because of the birth of the monster overlord, Angus improves himself slowly inside the royal academy.

'Haa… it seems I could improve more after I grow further' as Angus stops his training inside his room.

Then, he read some letters he received from his home. Some of the letters are about the current situation of the world. Although Angus is still a child, he still will get this kind of news as the son of duke and noble of the kingdom.

'Hm.. as expected this world is really more dangerous than earth. Tch… it seems father will go to the capital too.Well, I hope he is okay.' As Angus packs his things.

After the class tournament, the student will get a week-long holiday. During this time, some students will go back to their home or keep staying in their dorm.

Since Angus home is quite far from the royal academy, he will not go back to his home. However, a high noble like Angus usually has a townhouse inside the capital city.

Angus prefers to stay in his dorm rather than his townhouse. But, his father may come and visit him. So, he didn't have any choice but to settle down in the capital townhouse for this holiday.

'I guess I will treat this as a holiday since my body is also in the phase of bottleneck because of my own body.' Thought Angus inwardly

In the Firuman world, because of mana, people's bodies are more resilient and often train their body early since the age of five.

However, it didn't mean that they could train like adults. It is because their body is still in the growth period. Not only is their body far weaker than adults but their body also has more limits even with the help of mana.

Mana capacity, muscle density, reaction speed, and many others will limit the growth of a child in strength. The only way is to wait until the body matures by itself.

Still training at an early pace has more advantages when training at an older age. Because it could uncover the body potential and make them stronger.

For trained children, their body will be full matured the moment they form their mana core naturally. For the untrained child, it will be at the age of 13 to 15. It is also the age when trained children usually form their mana core.

After packing his things into the space pouch, he goes towards the academy entrance to meet with his two brothers before going to the townhouse together. 𝒇𝚛e𝘦wℯ𝑏𝓃𝑜νℯ𝒍.co𝗺

Arriving at the academy entrance that packs with many carriage, "Angus, here." As Vergil calls him.

"Vergil, I am coming." While Angus approached him.

"You are quite early, Vergil. Hmm.. Where is brother Jason?" Asked Angus.

"Ahh.. don't worry about him. He already went first with another carriage. Don't mind him, you know how he is. Let's go now before the exit is too crowded."

"Alright, after you brother." As both of them enter inside the carriage.

Inside the carriage, "Angus, did you read the letter from home?" Asked Vergil

"Yeah, Is it about the birth of the monster overlord, right?" Replied Angus seriously.

"True, Because of this incident many nobles will come to the capital. If my guess is not wrong there will be few noble gatherings during the holiday."

"You may get an invitation. So, be careful during this gathering especially…." Then, Vergil shared his experience about the noble gathering.

Children of the noble often did some gathering to make connections in the early age. Although Angus is still too young, he may also be called and need to attend together with his brother. Especially if the one that organizes it from the royalty.

Soon, the two brothers arrive at the townhouse. Although it is called townhouse it is actually a mansion with a big garden. Still the townhouse is not bigger than Angus's home that could house more than a hundred people and staff at once.

But, the townhouse is still big for only three people to reside. Fortunately, there are dozens of staff that maintain the townhouse.

Entering the townhouse, both of them are welcomed by dozens of butlers and employees inside the townhouse.

Then, the two brothers go towards their own room after chatting a little bit. During this moment, *Zrung* a sound heard from the front garden.

Inside the front garden, lay a circular platform with many runes. Along with the sound appears a middle aged man with bandages around his left shoulder, Duke Victory.

Noticing the arrival of the duke, the two brothers go towards the front garden. "Father, you are here." as Vergil ran towards the duke cheerfully.

Happy meeting the duke after a long time, Vergil immediately hugged his father. After a while Vergil noticed his father wounded, "Father, y-you are hurt."

Although Vergil is still a child, he is quite smart and knows the true strength of his father. Especially since he often follows his father to do some hunting in the small forest near their home.

In his mind, his father could be said to be the strongest and invincible person he knows. Seeing his father wounded for the first time, became quite a shock for Vergil.

"It's okay Vergil, this is only a small wound." as the duke tries to reassure his son.

During this time, the duke also notices his youngest son approach them slowly. But, he was confused at his youngest son's expression. At this moment, Angus's expression is really dreadful.

Anger, Sadness, Worry, Fear all of them show in his face and eyes. After taking a deep breath, Angus backed his expression back to his lazy one.

"Don't worry brother, It's only a small wound. It probably will heal up in a few days. Right, Father?" Reassure his brother more. 𝑓𝐫𝑒e𝒘𝚎𝘣𝚗𝘰𝘷𝐞𝑙.co𝑚

"Really??" Asked Vergil in a worried tone.

"Y-Yes. Of course." Replied the duke calmly.

"Okay, then let's go inside. I want to hear your fighting story." As Vergil grabs his father's arm.

As they walked inside, Angus could only follow both of them at his own pace. Soon, they arrive at the dining hall where his older brother Jason also join them to have a snack.

The duke then narrates his story of his fight against the corrupted mother ent. He still didn't give a full story towards his sons. But, Angus managed to uncover and deduct the true story just from the short story his father told.

"Alright, since the story ends. Let's go back to our room. Besides, fathers also need to rest, right?" As Angus unexpectedly gets up and walks out the room.

Although it seems normal, the duke could feel an anger tone behind Angus remarks. Still before he could call Angus, the boy himself was already gone.

"Then, we will pardon yourself. We hope you get well soon, Father." As Vergil and Jason leave the duke to rest.

Leaving alone, the duke went towards his own room. The moment he enters the room and closes his door, "You got careless, Isn't it?!"
