I JUST WANT A PEACEFUL LIFE

After sending an example of his monster part to his aunt a few days ago, his aunt turned 180 degrees in nature and completely became a businesswoman.

She even offers Angus a beneficial contract through the communication device directly in case he could get more monsters' part at this pristine condition in the future. After hearing the beneficial contract, Angus decided to agree and signed it.

The contract is nothing complicated and only needs him to sell Widespread family some pristine condition monster parts anytime. Then, the Widespread Family will buy the monster part regarding any species five times than the normal market price.

Angus understands the monster part price could rise a lot depending on the market. When it becomes very scarce and rare, the monster part with the pristine condition could be sold for five times or more than the normal market price.

However, this didn't matter to Angus since he only wanted to get easy money. Able to sell his monster part five times the normal market price is already profitable for him.

Even later, his Aunt managed to sell it ten times than market price. It is already not his business anymore. Without knowing the Golden Trader and Ernest are already losing one of their biggest clients.

To Golden Trade, Angus may not often be having business with them. But, every time he does a business transaction, their revenue will be at least a hundred thousand gold coins.

Leaving the business aside, Angus meditates and enters his Manual Battle system. After a few hours of killing and harvesting various parts of the monster, Angus's consciousness returns to the real world in an exhausted state.

"Huft… I think it will take some time before I can fight the fourth grade Ogre." muttered Angus.

Currently, Angus could fight and kill any fourth-grade monster with his third-grade mana core. However, he didn't dare fight any fourth-grade Ogre since his winning percentage didn't even reach 50%. This shows the difference between Ogre's combat capability and the other monster.

Another two weeks passed by, Angus managed to get his order in time and signed the contract with the Widespread Family. Since Angus's Aunt couldn't come in person, they sent a representative from the family to manage the contract and its procedure.

He also takes this opportunity to immediately sell his monster part to the Widespread Family as part of the payment for Angus's order. With the newly bought material, Angus didn't need to worry anymore about lacking material and could continue his Magic Gun research.

However, Angus currently has more important things to do than continue his Magic Gun research. A few weeks ago, his body and mind had already reached a complete state of total control.

Angus planned to open the second Gate of Life, but he needed to make sure he was in his best condition, be it body or mind. Hence, he decided to delay opening the second Gate of life until now.

Currently, Angus sits in the isolated underground room below the inner base. He didn't know what would happen to his body when he opened the second gate, but according to old Balrug, some people may react wildly to the surroundings.

To be safe, Angus decides to lock himself in the heavily enchanted underground room during the opening trial. Sitting in the middle of the room, Angus takes a deep breath and calms his mind.

Opening the second gate of life, Angus didn't need to go through the same complicated process as before. All he needs to do is find the opening first gate in his mind and pass through it with the intention to search the second gate.

In a moment, Angus already passes through the opening first gate and finds himself in the darkness without any light. Although his sense couldn't perceive anything, his instinct feels like getting stared at after arriving at this place.

Suddenly, Angus notices a movement from his side attacking him. *Bam* He managed to react properly and dodge the fast incoming attack. He saw a similar bright crimson twin sword in the hand of his attacker.

Just as he wants to retaliate, his battle instinct warns him again and makes him dodge to the side. *Bam* In his previous spot, Angus could see a familiar sharp-edged weapon attached to a chain. Seeing this, Angus could guess what this trial is.

After the initial attack, the two assailant attackers come out from the shadows under the dim light.

Looking at both of them having the same face as Angus, "Oh come one.. At least give a weapon or something?" rambled Angus.

Both of the expressionless clones suddenly smile as if looking forwards to Angus's misery. Suddenly, they begin attacking Angus using the same technique and power as him. Seeing this, Angus knows this will be a tough and long battle.

'No wonder most of the people couldn't break through or open the second gate. The trial difficulty is rising higher than the first one.' thought Angus.

Not only does Angus need to fight two people with the same power and technique as him, but they also have Angus's best weapon in their hands.

If it is not because of the leniency of the other party, Angus guesses he may have already died many times as he tried to sense them in the darkness. While Angus decides to open the second gate of life, General Borkins finally returns from the Dark Forest.

"Huff.. It's good to be back." said General Borkins after entering the Black Fortress's passage.

"Borkins, you are back. I hope everything is going well." called Fosa.

Although they keep in contact with each other, Fosa feels it will be reassuring to hear it directly from the other party's mouth.

"Yeah, we finally managed to cull down some of the Ogre this past month. They will not be a problem anymore for the time being." replied Borkins as they went towards the inner base.

Suddenly, Borkins stopped at his place and looked down below.

"Borkins, is anything wrong?" asked Fosa.

"Did you store something in the underground room recently?" asked Borkins.

"No, but I heard Angus borrow one of the underground rooms for training a few days ago." said Fosa.

"Training?? That's not training!!" yelled Borkins as he realized what Angus was doing.

"Ehh.. Is there anything wrong with Angus?" asked Fosa confusedly.

"Tch.. that brat is more problematic than his dad. Wait here, I need to contact someone. Also gather all the enchanters we currently have." said Borkins before going to his personal room.

Hearing this, Fosa and the others couldn't help but decide to follow Borkins order.

While on the way to his personal room, "What a horrible aura?? Did he want to blow up the entire Fortress? I hope they can make it in time." grumbled Borkins before taking a unique communication device from his personal chest inside the room.

A week passed since Borkins gathered every enchanter. During this week, the whole Black Fortress often gets a tremor. The tremor occurs more frequently and harder, like a monster trying to escape from its cage.

Currently, in the underground room, countless enchanters are trying to fortify Angus's isolated room and its surrounding area. However, each time the shake and tremor come from Angus's room, all their enchantment becomes destroyed under its might.

They couldn't help but reapply the rune more and more while fixing the one that was still intact. If it is not because of their constant hard work, the tremor and shaking are many times more potent than they currently feel.

Fosa and Borkins could only pray that Angus would finish his trial sooner. However, they brushed this thought since they got information from Jacob about Angus's superb regeneration after contacting him.

*BOOW* *BOOW* *BOOWWWW* At this moment, everyone heard a loud horn. A hundred meters from the Black Fortress, a few dwarves are wearing armor to blow the unique shaped horn before they stand in the position.

"Kat.. Hatcha Harchi!!" shouted all the few dwarves in unison before slamming the ground with their hammer's handle.

After that, the earth seemed to be moving around and became a cave. Then, from inside the cave, I heard many metallic footsteps in unison. Soon, dozens of armored dwarves come out from the cave. After the dwarves passed through, the cave reverted to earth.

At the same time, Borkins feels relieved that his help has managed to come in time. He immediately orders the guard to let the dwarves' army pass through. After entering the Black Fortress, the dwarves' army immediately gets welcomed by Borkins.

"Elder Forgus, I am glad you could make it in time." replied Borkins while bowing his head towards the dwarves' leader and surprising everyone.

Everyone in the base is familiar with the stubborn personality of Borkins. He even chose to die rather than bowing his head to a noble. But, now Borkins is respectfully bowing his head on his own towards the dwarves' leader.

"Alright, show me where the boy is? I could feel his aura getting stronger each second." command Elder Forgus directly.

Borkins immediately led Forgus and the others towards the underground room where Angus resided. Seeing the enchanter trying to hold the tremor and power coming from the Angus's room, Elder Forgus nodded.
