I Just want a Peaceful life
755 Political Circle
The released slaves are the ones that are captured by the dirty nobles. Unfortunately, these nobles are very good at covering their tracks. Most of the slaves didn't know who their captors were.
Even if they knew, they were forced to sign the expensive soul contract to prevent information leaks. This may look like a wasteful and troublesome movement. However, Angus could see this as just another ploy by other nobles.
Most of these slaves were found inside the inhabited area. Still, some were released near Freyspire City, his hometown and Victory's dukedom. Even Angus, who is not following the current politics, could smell a dirty conspiracy from miles away.
However, Angus also didn't surprise at this. Over the last few years, Victory's noble family influence spread to many fields because of seventh-grade Jade, the Sur Knight squad, and Angus's fame.
Many foreign investors and merchants will choose the Victory family to do business as their first choice over another noble family.
This situation is not acceptable for the jealous and envious noble. They will definitely do anything to bring down Victory's fame. Fortunately, Angus is not involved in this stupid political circle. Even if he gets dragged in, he will just burn the troublemaker directly like before.
Not everyone has the powerful backing of King Leon to continuously protect them.
While having their meal, Angus notices Brigida's dark glasses, "Brigida, how are your magic eyes? Did it still hurt?" asked Angus.
"Thank you for your Master's concern. It hurts less these days. Now, I just need to periodically supply it with mana to stabilize it." said Brigida.
"Good. So, did you find your eye abilities?" asked Angus.
"Unfortunately, I still don't know about it. According to Master Benjamin and others, the magic eyes are just formed and need a little more time to manifest." said Brigida.
"If Master Benjamin said so, then it must be true. Make sure to inform me in case of discomfort." said Angus.
"Yes, Master. T-Thank you for your concern." said Brigida politely.
"*Sigh* Both of you are too strict. Just behave like you usually do before." said Angus.
"No, can't do. I promise to serve Master Angus with all my heart." replied Lilith from the side.
"*Sigh* Whatever..." said Angus while wiping Anna's dirty mouth.
In the end, Angus leaves the two stubborn maids alone and focuses on spoiling his gluttony daughter. *BOOOM* During their meal, the manor suddenly shook heavily as they heard a loud explosion.
Despite the sudden incident, most of the Sur Knights and Angus didn't react to it as if the explosion never happened in the first place.
Using their sharp perception, they could feel two mischievous black-haired girls stealing some unfinished broken golem and chased by three charred dwarves. These dwarves are the one that follows Angus when they return from the Undermine Council.
In fact, nine dwarves following Angus return to the Heart Kingdom. However, the other six need to return to their place to finish some of their business. These three dwarves are the only ones that can immediately stay in the Heart Kingdom.
Knowing it is an opportunity, Duke Jacob and King Leon provide them a temporary shelter and a workplace. Now, they have become the target of the infamous twin Gemini.
The Sur Knights in the Manor and Angus are pretty used to these two mischievous star spirits. Initially, their lives are miserable and they often curse at the sky loudly, especially during Angus and others' absence.
This makes the Sur Knights adapt to the mischievous twin Gemini's behavior. The Sur Knights will use a powerful detection rune nearby to find the situation whenever there is trouble.
If they find it is related to the Twin Gemini, they will leave it alone and let low-grade guards take care of it. Since then, most noble manors in the capital city were also enchanted with powerful detection runes.
At first, most of the nobles complained about wasting resources. However, they didn't expect engraving these runes in their home would increase their and the capital city's safety.
Whenever there is a breaking-in or ruckus, they could immediately respond and apprehend the perpetrator. This makes the noble manor the forbidden zone for the thieves in the capital city. The only disadvantage is the enchantment rune is expensive to build and maintain.
Still, King Leon also turns a blind eye to the complaints. He knows for a noble family, money is the last thing they ever need. Most of the noble family is very rich.
With the economic growth of the Miasma Antidote business, the aristocratic class is the first to receive the direct benefit. Rather than thinking about money, the noble family worried more about maintaining their noble status and the Extermination Squad.
The Heart Kingdom has a unique system of noble rank. Any noble below the count rank could be dismissed if they didn't contribute anything in a certain period. In contrast, it is easy for someone to gain a noble rank below the Count Rank.
They just need to make a notable contribution or merit to the kingdom to get promoted. As a result, the Heart always had many low-rank new nobles despite having many fallen nobles in their kingdom.
After eating her meal for a while, Anna started to yawn loudly.
"Alright, let's go to bed now." said Angus.
"Emm… But Mommy is still outside." complained Anna with sleepy eyes.
"It's okay. Mommy will follow us later." said Angus.
"Emm.. Al-right. *Yawn*" said Anna before sleeping on Angus' arm.
While Anna is sleeping, Angus checks up on her body like usual. Despite not finding anything, he still continuously checks on Anna's health. He knows her race has health when they grow up. He needs to keep looking for her health in case something bad happens.
During this time, Angus finds a broken golem moving outside the windows followed by the beaten-up dwarves. On top of the broken golem, the twin Gemini sits leisurely while having their own mischievous signature.
Despite the bizarre scene, Angus is still in his poker face as if nothing is happening. He keeps walking towards his bedroom while holding the sleeping Anna and ignoring all the explosion noise outside.
'Hmm… Come to think of it, two of those dwarves are experts at magical engineering. Maybe they could help Gilford and Master Benjamin's job later. Still, they will also be put inside the probation period.'
'At most, they could only become one of the professors in the Royal Academy in the next few years. *Sigh* Welp… I will leave this to King Leon later. For now, I will enjoy my free time. All those incidents are really tiring me out.' thought Angus.
Unbeknownst to Angus, he will again be 'forced' to go somewhere faster than he thought.
Meanwhile, Angus and Jayna stay inside his manor. A flash of red light blitzed through the capital city street and quickly reached the Royal Palace. *BZZTTZZ* The red light stopped before King Leon's office.
"Is he free?" asked Duchess Amberblaze casually.
"His Highness is already waiting for the Duchess." said Garner, the current leader of the Royal Guard.
"Alright." said Duchess Amberblaze before entering the room.
"Lia, you are here." said King Leon, who suddenly appeared behind the Duchess and closed the door.
"Leon, stop it. We still need to finish our business first." said Duchess Amberblaze while being hugged by King Leon from behind.
The Duchess didn't resist King Leon's soft embrace despite protesting. *Swish* In a flash, the two people disappear and appear on King Leon's chair. In a moment, King Leon adjusted their posture and made his beloved woman sit on his lap.
"So, how is it? Is there a problem?" asked King Leon while still embracing Extalia.
"Huft… You are really helpless. No, Count Flamewaver does it cleanly. None of the 'guilty' survive. Not even their body is intact. The castle was even razed to the ground without leaving any single rubble intact." reported Extalia.
"Thought so. This is their way of doing things. Taking out not only until its root but the whole ground in its surrounding." said King Leon.
"Well, we couldn't do anything about it. So, how are the kids? I heard they came back a week ago." said Extalia.
"They are fine without any injuries, as always. Though they seem to be pretty mentally exhausted. But, they could recover it over time." said King Leon.
"Good. Then, give them some time to rest first. They pretty much need it." said Extalia.
"Hmmm… I wonder about that." said King Leon with a grin.
"Leon… What are you planning to do?" asked Extalia with a frown.
"Nothing. There is just a summon from the World Alliance. This time I plan to send Jade. As the new Seventh grade, he needed to at least go to the Roundel City for once as tradition." said King Leon.
"So?" asked Extalia in confusion.
"Well, Jade asked for Duke Jacob and Angus to accompany him." said King Leon.
"Seriously?" said Extalia with a twitch.
After a moment of silence, "Did he have no shame to ask for a child to accompany him to this important meeting?!!" retorted Extalia in frustration.
