I Just want a Peaceful life

Chapter 699 Intruder





"Is this what they felt, huh?!" said Lotord to himself.

While the Elder Lotord fell into a huge predicament, The whole Undermine Council slowly got destroyed by the barrier ball with Miranda inside. The dwarf tried to hold and stop the monster-minded people, but these people were too sneaky.

The moment the dwarves reach their location, they immediately disappear into their own shadow. Moreover, if the dwarves send too few people, they will get butchered instead. King Dumrod also noticed this problem and gritted his teeth.

In the end, he decides to let his own hired guard take care of these monster people. The hired guards were supposed to be the last line of defense to protect his constructed towers.

Each of them has many different abilities and is a powerful sixth-grade combatant. Dumrod spent a lot of resources to hire these people. He even prepares these hired guards to hold and stop Lotord in case he decides to fight against him.

Yet, he didn't expect the monster-minded people to be his plan's wildest factor. Getting their order, every hired guard immediately moves to catch these monster people.

Meanwhile, inside the unknown cave at the Undermine Council, a green-skinned old man tinkering some machine with a bored look.

"Haa… This is boring. Why the fuck that Dumrod tell me to guard this place?! Besides, there is no way someone could break into this place from outside. Now, I miss the opportunity to show my creation." grumbled the old man.

Despite complaining, his hand does not stop moving and tinkering with his machinery. Suddenly, he feels a subtle tremor before looking at the glass of water nearby. *Brm* *Brm* *Brm* As time passed, the shake and tremor strengthened along with the ripple in the water glass.

Soon, the old man anxiously turned from his machine towards the cave entrance. *BOOOOM* Suddenly, he hears a loud explosion that shakes the whole place. He also finds someone's shadow from the cave entrance.

Using his perception, he could find the other party walking toward his location. The green-skinned old man couldn't help but grab his artifact and get ready to battle anxiously. Although he didn't know the true origin of this place, he still knew a little about it.

This place is an ancient path that should connect the outside world with the Undermine Council. However, the ancient path was long sealed by the dwarves long ago. Even he didn't know which this ancient path led to.

Still, Dumrod would not underestimate the possibility of an intruder and placed the green-skinned old man as the guard here.

After a while, the old man finally sees the intruder. He is a lion beastman without clothes and thick mane hair around his neck and hair. There are some traces of blood and water all over his body. Yet, the person didn't care about it and just looked around.

'Warchief Might Napollo!!' screamed the old man in surprise.

"Now, where am I? Is this another part of that stupid maze?"  said Warchief to himself.

The Warchief completely ignores the old man before him as if his existence is insignificant. Despite this, the green-skinned old man feels standing before a mighty beast. Steeled himself, the green-skinned old man stomped the ground with his staff.

"Tch… I don't care if you are Warchief Might or what?! But, you will not go further." said the old man.

"Hmmm…. Why is there a little goblin here?" said Warchief Might, as if he finally noticed this old man.

"G-Goblin?!! How dare you compare me with those weaklings?!! My name is Ekkho, the strongest green-skinned race." said the green-skinned old man proudly.

Hearing this, Warchief Might only give a pity look to the old green-skinned man. With his sharp discerning eyes, he could see this old man's true nature and origin at a single glance.

"You must have a cruel parent to let you be born into this world." commented Warchief Might with a pitying tone.

"You.. You!!" said Ekkho in anger.

Ekkho is not coming from an ordinary race but a half-breed. Ekkho didn't know that half-breed babies inside the beastman culture always get aborted as a sign of not letting the newborn babies face the cruelty and misery of being defective.

It is common knowledge that 90% of half-breeds are born defective. Therefore, it is better to end their life before they are born and live in misery. This practice is often used by the beastman community and has become part of their culture.

In fact, the parent letting the half-breed be born is not a loving parent but a cruel parent in their eyes. They know there is a high chance their newborn baby is born defective, yet they still decide to let them arrive in this world in misery.

From Warchief Might's perspective, Ekkho's parent is cruel to let him live. However, Ekkho doesn't know about it and feels like Warchief Might insulting his parent.

He may already live for a long time, but he still couldn't accept his deceased loving parent being mocked by the others. Ekkho waves his hand and sends a few flying dozen golems from nearby to attack Warchief Might.

The Warchief didn't move from his spot, only casually quickly moving his finger. *Swish* *Swish* *Swish* *Boom* *Boom* The strong battle golem sliced like butter and exploded on the spot before it could approach Warchief Might.

"He cut all of them by only moving his finger?!! What kind of physical skill is that?!" muttered Ekkho.

"Are you done with your toy? Now, do you want to tell me which way I should go?" said Warcheif Might.

Hearing this, Ekkho woke up from his stunned expression and finally smirked like he had already won.

"Right. No matter what, you are still a beastman warrior. There is no way you could defeat me the warrior sla…" replied Ekkho.

Before Ekkho finished his sentence, a sharp curved wind was already coming at him and almost hit his body. At this dangerous moment, Ekkho's body suddenly turned translucent and dimly glowed in green [Ethereal Form].

The sharp flying slash bypassed Ekkho's body as if he was not there. Then, Ekkho's body returned to normal. Seeing Ekkho dodge his attack without any injury makes Warchief glint and find the half-breed interesting.

"Hoo… Not bad as a disabled person. Fine. Let's play a little bit." said Warchief Might.

"Disabled?! Can a disabled person create this!!" shouted Ekkho angrily as he swung his staff.

*Clang* *Clang* Suddenly, all the machinery behind Ekkho assembled themself turn into something akin to a dragon [Mecha Dragon].

"Hahaha…. You should not mess with me, Warchief Might!!" said Ekkho while controlling the giant metallic dragon.

Warchief Might didn't reply, only gave a bright smirk as if he had found a nice toy.

Meanwhile, Angus' group is still on the run, knocking out every ordinary dwarf they find. Currently, the whole Undermine Council is 90% occupied by the dwarves. It is impossible for them to entirely run around without being detected.

However, Angus also didn't want to create too much killing and massacred the dwarf. Unless it is the dwarf guards who are trying to fight them with lethal force, Angus will only knock out the others.

"This place is really huge." commented Angus helplessly.

They already run for a few hours, yet they only manage to reach the edge of sector 5 now. During this time, the young couple also needs to pay attention to naughty Anna, who keeps trying to run on her own.

The moment they lose sight of Anna, she immediately attracts the whole dwarf guards or creates more trouble. Still, Angus and Jayna find Anna more lively than before.

Although she is not too hyperactive where she can't stay for a second, she is still showing more genuine smiles than before. The last time Angus and Jayna see this behavior is when they stay near the corpse hole during the Plargos's plague incident.

'*Sigh* I think we are the ones at fault. We tried not to force her, but we still made her deny her monster side. We should let her be free more often.' said Angus to Jayna through their bond.

'No, you are wrong. It is still too soon. Anna is still a little girl. What happens if she somehow gets hurt?' retorted Jayna while hugging Anna tightly.

Getting complained by Jayna without end about Anna's safety, Angus could only silently nod. He truly wants to retort that Anna is strong enough to survive almost everything. But he couldn't say that to her lover, or he would listen to her rambling for a whole day.

While her parents argue through their bond, Anna looks around at the rubble and destruction in the surrounding with gleaming eyes.

"Anna wants to burst bubbles too." muttered Anna in a low voice.

Despite saying this in a low voice, Angus and Jayna also hear her words and stop their running. Angus and Jayna looked at each other and nodded to each other.

"Anna, did you want to lead the way?!" asked Jayna.

"Hmm… Can Anna?!" said Anna happily.

"Yup. Just do whatever you want. Besides, I don't think those dwarves have any say in this." said Angus.

"Alright." said Anna before taking out her black scepter.

Seeing the scepter, Angus didn't know why but felt a bad premonition.
